Chapter 915 - 915 901 Jiang Zhuge Trapped

Chapter 915: Chapter 901: Jiang Zhuge Trapped Chapter 915: Chapter 901: Jiang Zhuge Trapped Ye Chen said, “I think it would be very difficult to withstand Shangguan Heiqi’s Sky-shattering Hammer.”

Divine Doctor Zhu said, “When the Moonlight Fairy lost to the Tianye Demon, it wasn’t because her swordsmanship was inadequate, but because she had an old illness. She lost due to the illness, not to her martial arts.”

“That’s the way it is, then I can rest assured.”

“I think you cannot rest assured. Do you think you’re more formidable than the Moonlight Fairy?”

“No, my martial arts haven’t recovered yet.” Ye Chen took a sip of wine.

“Even if your martial arts were restored, they wouldn’t amount to much.”

“That’s not necessarily true.”

“Not humble at all.”

“Alright, yes, I thank the Moonlight Fairy, I thank the Moonlight senior, and I hope she can bestow me with strength when the time comes so that I meet gods and slay gods, meet Buddhas and slay Buddhas.” Ye Chen poured himself another cup of wine.

Wan Danrong took the sword and looked at it upon pulling it out, not finding anything special, and asked, “It seems very ordinary.”

“Ordinary people will of course find it ordinary, but it’s extraordinary when used by extraordinary people.” Divine Doctor Zhu continued, “The sword reflects the person’s nature, it all depends on whether you’re attuned to it and if it’s willing to serve you.”

“Then I’m definitely an extraordinary person.”

“I think you can’t even count as ordinary.”

“How is that possible, I’m one in ten thousand.”

“Talking about being one in ten thousand; when you came back, you were just like those soft-shelled shrimps. Without me, you would have been long dead.” Yang Tao’er said.

Ye Chen looked at the box and asked, “What about this?”

“There are three energy sources inside. Use them as you see fit. I haven’t used them either, but hopefully, they can help you. After all, your martial arts won’t recover overnight. It’s good that the girl is going with you. It seems that Ace Killer is a master of poisoning, and she can help you.” Of course, Divine Doctor Zhu was talking about his daughter.

“That’s a must to bring along.”

“Hurry up and eat, or there won’t be any left.” Wan Danrong said.

Ye Chen put the sword away and tucked the box back into his bosom, saying, “That Sky-shattering Hammer is really too powerful. You didn’t see it in action; in front of it, nothing is left but a pool of blood; it’s not enough for him to smash.”

“Can’t you use softness to overcome hardness?”

“Right, I can indeed use softness to overcome hardness; it seems this sword has arrived just in time.”

Divine Doctor Zhu spoke disdainfully, “You dare to call yourself an expert, yet you don’t even know about using softness to overcome hardness. You’re simply a fool.”

“Hey, I’m not a fool, it’s just that I didn’t have a weapon.” Ye Chen then asked, “Are there any other magical treasures?”

“I’m just a simple doctor.”

“Hey, you not mentioning it almost made me forget.” Ye Chen said, “You said that if things weren’t handled well, I could turn into a mad dog; you were just joking with me, right?”

“I’m not joking with you. Ace Killer’s poison was probably derived from some maddened beasts.”

“This person is too evil.”

“If it weren’t for the medicine sustaining you for two days, you would have turned into a mad dog long ago,” Divine Doctor Zhu said.

Unnoticed, night fell.

“Ah, I can’t sit here and chat with you anymore. After talking so much, it’s all been nonsense.” Divine Doctor Zhu stood up and went into his room, clearly feeling that the atmosphere was unsuitable for an old man like him.

“Don’t worry, I will definitely take good care of Tao’er, and maybe when I return, I can even bring you back a grandson.”

Divine Doctor Zhu ignored him and had already gone into his room.

Jiang Zhuge and Kong Sha, along with the people from the New City Sect, had just barely managed to escape from the Tianye Demon, but they didn’t expect that, less than two days later, they were trapped again and now facing being split in two.

Jiang Zhuge immediately became cautious and said, “This is a trick; they have set us up.”

Kong Sha was very puzzled upon hearing this. Facing the continuous onslaught of mutant beasts from the Sky Demon Sect within Gourd Valley, he said, “What do you mean ‘set us up’? What does that mean?”

Jiang Zhuge made a judgment, analyzing, “You see, after one attempt, the place where we’re encircling is interconnected in all directions; it’s a location that’s very difficult to establish an encirclement. Especially since the Sky Demon Sect’s numbers are about the same as ours, even though the Tianye Demon is formidable, we have formations to block them. It’s hard for them to completely devour us, so they let us go.

On this side, however, look at these barren mountains and steep ridges—it’s an excellent location for an encirclement battle. If they can cut us off and consume a large chunk, then find a way to devour another chunk, that would be dividing and conquering.”

Kong Sha immediately understood after hearing this, saying, “You mean they want to divide us into two parts.”

“Exactly, they can’t swallow us all at once. If they gobble up one part and then another, it’ll be much easier.”

Kong Sha, becoming anxious upon hearing this, said, “Then we absolutely cannot fall for their trick.”

As a result, the Tianye Demon from the other side charged fiercely from the central position, pressing Ming Qi into a constant retreat. Not being a match at all, and continuously shrinking back toward us.

“It’s not good, the Tianye Demon is coming over here,” Ming Qi was somewhat unable to resist.

Just as a split in the middle was about to happen, and their intent was becoming more apparent, Jiang Zhuge absolutely would not allow such a thing to occur. Knowing that if they were cut off, it would be difficult to connect from front to back, he hurriedly shouted, “Kong Sha, release our mutant beasts to block them, do not let them cut us off at all costs.”

After hearing Jiang Zhuge’s analysis, Kong Sha realized the severity of the situation. He immediately took a group of people and a batch of Giant Beasts, preparing to push forward.

Jiang Zhuge then called out, “I’ll be back soon.”

Kong Sha took his people and left.

Jiang Zhuge said to Ming Qi, “Ming Qi, the Tianye Demon wants to divide us into two and conquer separately. You must not fall for his trick, absolutely not. Take your people to the back and hold them off, don’t let them lure you away; we must stay united.”

Ming Qi, after hearing this, quickly ran back to assist.

Jiang Zhuge knew the situation was extremely critical, they must hold their ground. If truly split into two, it would become very difficult. Collaboration would be severely compromised, especially in these rugged mountains, leaving them even more at a loss.

Urgently needing to stabilize their position, Jiang Zhuge made a judgment. They must not fall for the trap now. The enemy would definitely try to distract them with strong attacks from both ends, but the ultimate goal would likely be to cut through the middle. So now, the focus must be on the center.

Jiang Zhuge made an analysis and immediately instructed people to inform the ones at the front of the formation to retreat back to the middle, to help Kong Sha withstand the Tianye Demon, and then they would regroup after nightfall.

The Tianye Demon was killing fiercely, intent on cutting them apart. Although according to the plan, Silver Moon Fox and Po Ren fought vigorously to help, they failed to draw the firepower over. The New City Sect’s people actually did not fall for it, which rather surprised the Tianye Demon. It seemed the New City Sect was indeed experienced,

Unknowingly, it was already approaching nightfall.

Silver Moon Fox said, “It seems they have seen through our intentions.”

“Yes, they have indeed seen through our intentions. New City Sect isn’t a pushover; these guys are very experienced, just like old ginger, and deserve their reputation for unifying the Wastelands; they do have some tricks up their sleeves,” Po Ren said with a hint of admiration.

Hearing this, Silver Moon Fox muttered, “Then doesn’t that mean we have no way to divide and conquer them?”

The Tianye Demon was also pondering something.

Upon hearing this, Po Ren replied, “Not necessarily. Even though they now know our intentions, they’re already trapped in the mountain encirclement. They’re stuck here and can’t escape. Although we haven’t been able to take a bite out of them yet, it’s not so easy for them to leave.”

The Tianye Demon, as if annoyed, said, “Exactly, since they want to play this game with us, it’s useless to see through our intentions. Anyway, we’ve got all the time in the world, let’s play it slow.”

After hearing this, Po Ren said, “That’s right, they’re more anxious than we are. They want to join up with those people, while we do not. We’ve lured them in here, and although we can’t wipe them out, it’s difficult for them to escape. As long as we have enough time, we’re sure to beat them.”

Silver Moon Fox also became excited, saying, “That’s true. We can starve them for a while, and when they’re about to collapse, we can then find a way to completely annihilate them. It’s sure to succeed.”

Po Ren thought the same, saying, “Exactly. Why should we rush? At most, we just need to wear them down for a few days. After they become anxious, we will certainly see an opportunity, we’re bound to find one.”

The Tianye Demon made a decisive decision, saying, “Alright, let’s do as you say. Since they like to play, let’s play along and see who can last longer.”

“As long as we trap them and prevent them from escaping, they’ll definitely become anxious.”

They changed their strategy from divide and conquer to siege.

Po Ren added, “Of course, as soon as they relax and we find an opportunity, we still need to divide them. Once they reach the point of collapse, we will certainly see the opportunity.”

The Tianye Demon had not expected to encounter the people of New City Sect so soon, and moreover, a tough nut to crack. Longhun was shrewd. New City Sect had just unified the Wastelands and was certainly stronger than the people from the Immortal Demon Realm.

Silver Moon Fox said, “Longhun is cunning, deliberately leaving us with the toughest bone to chew. These people have just unified the Wastelands, their strength outclasses those from the Immortal Demon Realm, yet they have handed these people over to us to trouble us.”

The Tianye Demon said, “Don’t worry, let’s play it slow with them and see how formidable they can be.”

At this moment, the Tianye Demon didn’t want to rush anymore and decided to enjoy a good game with them.

Jiang Zhuge and the others were trapped, stuck in the mountains. Of course, he was thinking about how they could escape from within.
