Tang Ze, Tang Hao, and Tang Lu were all familiar to Ye Qiu, especially since he had already taken out their three masters.
"Could it be that Tang Heshan sent them to question ?" Ye Qiu didn’t attack imdiately but pondered the significance behind their presence here.
If it was Tang Heshan’s doing, then Ye Qiu would need to change his attitude towards the Tang clan in the future, as this was placing him in mortal danger.
If it was the actions of the three themselves, that would be a different story.
Ye Qiu decided to eavesdrop on their conversation first. After listening carefully, Ye Qiu realized that the three were here to lie in wait, waiting for him to show up.
"What a cunning Tang Ze, to analyze my current situation so accurately. If your skills were stronger, I might actually fall into your hands." Ye Qiu was relieved that he remained cautious and hadn’t acted rashly. Otherwise, if he had appeared recklessly and they knew he was here, it would beco a huge hassle. Any slight noise in the Barbaric Wilderness Forest could attract more people, and if the three great ancient clans sent more people, he would be in danger.
"I must deal with them quickly and silently, leaving no trace." Ye Qiu resolved to kill the three.
These three fellows, he clearly didn’t provoke them, yet they kept opposing him. If they hadn’t t today, he would have spared them for the sake of the Tang clan.
But right now, the three were not acting on Tang Heshan’s orders; they had taken it upon themselves to search for his whereabouts. Now, Ye Qiu felt justified in attacking.
They were seeking their own deaths, and they had no one else to bla.
Among Tang Ze, Tang Lu was watching the entrance to the safe passage, while Tang Ze and Tang Hao hid under the leaves, resting with closed eyes.
Staring at one spot, Tang Lu’s eyes grew weary, occasionally rubbing them to stay alert.
"Why hasn’t Ye Qiu appeared yet? It’s been days without a sound, which doesn’t make sense," Tang Lu yawned and muttered to himself.
"Could he have really entered the Barbaric Wilderness Forest?"
"If he’s truly heartless and doesn’t go to check on the life or death of people from Yun Shang Palace, then we’ve waited here in vain."
Tang Lu complained. Having stayed here for several days was tedious and unbearable without freedom of movent.
Tang Lu didn’t know that Ye Qiu’s silhouette was silently approaching. Under the Great Turtle Breath Evasion Technique, Ye Qiu’s presence completely vanished. Unless one saw Ye Qiu with their own eyes, they couldn’t detect him by re presence.
"It’s about ti to let that fellow Tang Hao take a turn watching," just as Tang Lu was about to get up and stretch, and wake Tang Hao.
Suddenly, a force pressed down on his shoulder, pushing him backward. Just as Tang Lu was about to speak, a handful of dirt was shoved into his mouth, and a palm covered his mouth, preventing him from making any sound.
Tang Lu tried to struggle, shaking his shoulder vigorously, but the figure that suddenly descended firmly pinned him down, trapping his hands with their legs.
Tang Lu couldn’t break free or call for help, he could only look up at the intruder who attacked him.
Ye Qiu...
Seeing this face, even though Tang Lu was ntally prepared, he couldn’t help but be shocked.
Their guess was correct; Ye Qiu was indeed nearby.
Tang Lu wanted to alert Tang Ze and Tang Hao nearby, but he couldn’t move at all.
At this mont, a cold blade lingered on his throat for a second.
Tang Lu imdiately stopped all movents. He saw Ye Qiu smile at him, then felt a chill on his neck as all his vitality rapidly faded away.
Ye Qiu gently jumped off of him, silently landing on the ground, then caught Tang Lu’s body before it hit the ground and gently laid it down.
One down.
Ye Qiu swayed like a leaf again, positioning himself between Tang Ze and Tang Hao.
At this ti, the two were resting with closed eyes, completely unaware that Tang Lu had been taken out.
Approaching them, Ye Qiu quietly drew the Kusanagi Sword, aiming at Tang Hao’s chest, just as he was about to strike down, suddenly, Tang Hao opened his eyes.
With astonishing speed, Ye Qiu left Tang Hao no chance to make any sound. The tip of the Kusanagi Sword slipped between his fingers and instantly pierced down. Before Tang Hao could react, the sword pierced through his heart, and under Ye Qiu’s pressed hand, not a drop of blood spurted out.
Tang Hao’s body twitched for a mont before he perished.
And it was this small disturbance that imdiately startled Tang Ze awake.
He sprang up just to see a sword embedded in Tang Hao’s chest, clearly indicating he had been killed.
"It’s you!"
Tang Ze recognized the assailant as Ye Qiu. Just as he spoke out, he felt a booming sensation in his head.
Tang Ze slowly turned to see a floating bronze mirror striking towards him again.
Thud!
With a vicious blow, Tang Ze’s head was crushed like a waterlon by the Yata Mirror.
Ye Qiu picked up the Yata Mirror, wiped the blood on Tang Ze’s clothes. If not for Ye Qiu preemptively using the Yata Mirror and controlling it with spiritual power, Tang Ze might have made a noise and attracted attention.
Having successfully disposed of the three, Ye Qiu felt as calm as a still lake. These three were now small fry in his eyes. If it weren’t for wanting to avoid making noise, he would have just slaughtered them directly with no need for stealth. Considering they were still in the Legendary Realm, and Ye Qiu, who could slay even soone at the King’s Realm, had stealthily attacked, they stood no chance. Even soone in the Mythical Realm was destined to die.
He sent his spiritual power once more into the depths of the entrance to the safe passage. Upon finding no human presence inside, Ye Qiu cleaned up the scene, covered the blood traces, and dragged the three bodies into the safe passage.
The ancient clan mbers searching for Ye Qiu’s figure all around the ancient grounds had no idea that Ye Qiu had already entered the Barbaric Wilderness Forest, nor did Tang Heshan and others know that Tang Ze and the others had been killed by Ye Qiu.
Throwing the three bodies aside, Ye Qiu began to study breaking through the Formation.
This safe passage was the only flaw, and after observing for a long ti, Ye Qiu began to act.
Within Yun Shang, as three great ancient clans attacked, the rate of Crystal Stone consumption by the great formation was as astonishingly rapid as eating food.
"The three great ancient clans are attacking like mad. If this keeps up for three more days, the formation will probably..." The owner of Yun Shang stopped short, as everyone understood what was left unsaid.
"We will go out and confront them, hold them back for a while. Every minute we gain is precious," the Wu Yang seniors imdiately said.
Then, the Wu Yang seniors and the library owner rushed to the edge of the formation, helping to fend off the aggression of the three great ancient clans, thereby reducing the consumption of the formation.
Seeing this scene, Ji Changtian laughed, "Looks like they’re desperate now. Don’t worry about them, keep attacking; this formation is about to disappear."
Wu Yang seniors and the library owner felt a chill in their hearts.
