"Not good!"
In almost an instant, Ye Guichen understood Yuan Shao’s plot.
One has to admit, Yuan Shao indeed possesses so skills, even making Ye Guichen feel a sense of danger.
The so-called Heavenly Gang Formation created by Yuan Shao was designed largely for controlling Shui Liao.
Ye Guichen knew that anyone who practices the martial arts of honing one’s body would beco extrely agitated and bloodthirsty on a full moon night, killing anyone they see.
Although it was still dayti, Yuan Shao used this formation to mimic the appearance of a full moon night, apparently to provoke Shui Liao.
As for the bone in Yuan Shao’s hand, it must be the key to controlling Shui Liao.
"Haha, haha!" Yuan Shao let out a crazed laugh.
When Ye Guichen reacted, his attention was solely on Shui Liao, failing to notice that the dwarf Tu Wan he had ignored had already moved.
Although Tu Wan was only half the size of Shui Liao, his speed was extrely swift, rushing out simultaneously as Yuan Shao activated the formation.
He held three dice the size of fists, throwing them fiercely.
The dice seed to be controlled by an invisible hand.
Boom!
With a muffled sound, the dice directly struck Zhou Weijun’s chest.
Zhou Weijun was knocked flying and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Yuan Shao’s n, originally surrounding them, swiftly attacked Zhou Weijun, seemingly intending to end his life.
Zhou Weijun, hit by the fist-sized dice, felt his internal organs churn. Struggling to get up, he suddenly sensed waves of killing intent coming toward him. Looking up, his face changed drastically: "Brother Ye, save !"
A cold steel blade slashed down towards him.
Ye Guichen, hearing the plea, couldn’t afford to pay attention to Shui Liao anymore. With a swift move, he rushed to Zhou Weijun’s side: "Brother Zhou, stay close to !"
He grabbed Zhou Weijun and threw him behind him.
Simultaneously, Ye Guichen struck out with his palm, killing the man with the steel blade.
Regarding formations, Ye Guichen had heard Ti’er Daoist ntion them before, often proving effective.
The most famous one was Zhuge Liang’s Stone Formation from the Three Kingdoms period, which could trap a troop with just a few stones, truly impressive.
So, when Ye Guichen first t Ti’er Daoist, he studied formations under him for a while.
Ti’er Daoist had said formations are difficult to learn, requiring innate talent, and much of it derived from Daoist’s Eight Trigrams, advising Ye Guichen not to waste his effort.
Unexpectedly, everything is connected.
Under Ye Guichen’s strong insistence, despite Ti’er Daoist thinking Ye Guichen’s interest was fleeting, he found Ye Guichen’s speed in learning formations astonishing during his teaching.
Teaching only halfway, Ti’er Daoist dared not continue, citing that if Ye Guichen learned everything, Ti’er Daoist would have nothing left for Ye Guichen to utilize.
No matter how Ye Guichen pleaded, Ti’er Daoist refused to teach further.
In truth, Ye Guichen had already exhausted Ti’er Daoist’s knowledge. He wanted to teach but had nothing left to impart.
The formation Yuan Shao called the Heavenly Gang Formation seed only a smokescreen, without substantial power.
Its primary purpose was to simulate the night and create the illusion of a full moon, making Shui Liao more aggressive.
Thus, Ye Guichen believed that once Shui Liao was dealt with, the formation posed no threat.
Setting up a lethal formation is not a quick process, requiring many hidden chanisms which Yuan Shao didn’t have ti for.
Therefore, Yuan Shao’s greatest reliance was on the hope that the berserk Shui Liao could kill Ye Guichen.
As quick as lightning, after protecting Zhou Weijun, Ye Guichen turned his head to see Su Jiu’er and Iron Hand already tangled with the dwarf Tu Wan.
Tu Wan’s figure turned into a phantom, with the three dice spinning around him, controlled as if they were extensions of his limbs.
For a mont, even with Su Jiu’er and Iron Hand joining forces, they could only hold Tu Wan to a draw.
"Jiu’er, Iron Hand, back off!" Ye Guichen commanded, then punched towards Tu Wan.
Tu Wan felt imnse pressure and imdiately retreated.
However, even with his agility, Tu Wan was still no match for Ye Guichen.
The punch hit directly on Tu Wan’s chest, followed by several bone-cracking sounds. Tu Wan flew out like a broken kite, landing near Shui Liao.
Su Jiu’er and Iron Hand seized the opportunity to quickly retreat behind Ye Guichen, nervously watching Tu Wan and the increasingly berserk Shui Liao.
Shui Liao’s current appearance resembled a wild beast, his eyes redder and more stimulated as ti passed.
Seeing soone appear in front of him, Shui Liao grabbed Tu Wan.
With a violent pull, Tu Wan was torn in half in an instant.
Blood mist filled the air.
Tu Wan didn’t even have ti to react before becoming a corpse.
"Damn!"
Yuan Shao hadn’t anticipated this situation.
But seeing Shui Liao becoming more berserk, Yuan Shao knew he couldn’t stay in this formation any longer.
Otherwise, he too would beco a target for Shui Liao’s slaughter.
"Ye and Weijun, you play slowly, enjoy!" Yuan Shao waved his black flag, his figure vanished as if swallowed by the night.
At the sa ti, Shui Liao’s eyes turned towards Ye Guichen and his companions.
Zhou Weijun, severely injured by Tu Wan’s dice, couldn’t even stand properly. Seeing Shui Liao’s gaze, he trembled in fear, nearly collapsing.
The other n trapped in the formation were also terrified, no longer daring to attack Ye Guichen’s group.
Iron Hand stood protectively in front of Ye Guichen, his legs trembling uncontrollably.
Previously, he couldn’t defeat Shui Liao when calm; now, he feared being torn apart.
"Ye Guichen, what should we do? Are we going to die?" Su Jiu’er’s voice trembled, her face desperate. Despite her forced composure, her eyes moistened, mumbling incessantly, "I...I don’t have a boyfriend, haven’t married, haven’t enjoyed worldly pleasures. Dying like this...I am not reconciled."
Though quiet, her words reached Ye Guichen’s ears clearly.
Ye Guichen closed his eyes, suddenly feeling his entire aura surge.
This sensation inexplicably invigorated him.
"This is a sign of a breakthrough!"
Only under a strong enemy’s pressure can one’s deepest potential be triggered!
"Everyone, stand back!" Ye Guichen, both astonished and delighted, stepped forward, standing five steps away from Shui Liao, his face serene as still water, his posture like a coiled dragon, gazing resolutely.
