Chapter 240: Desperate
"A master of half-step immortal climbing?" Xu Huairou was surprised: "Isn't this year's Deer Competition Conference forbidden to participate in the competition of masters above the second order?" β
Li Changjing shook his head, this was also what he was puzzled about. When he came in before, he had already paid attention to and observed, among the four teams, there were absolutely no half-step immortal cultivators, and at that time, there were eight half-step immortal masters in checking, who had such great ability to hide from these eight people, sneak in or lower the realm, and mix in the team?
Lu Li groaned: "I think it's necessary to tell others about this, after all, the master of the half-step immortal ascending is far from something we can deal with, if he has the intention to kill us, no one can escape." β
Li Changjing snorted, the three team leaders were killed, although the reason is not clear for the time being, but it is always good to remind the others.
Just without waiting for them to speak, Yan Jun seemed to have guessed their move, and immediately came over to stop them with a dark face, and said in a deep voice: "I advise you not to tell this news to others." β
"Why?" Lu Li was puzzled: "There is a half-step immortal master mixed in, it has become unsafe here, shouldn't you remind your teammates?" β
Yan Jun sneered: "Don't be so naΓ―ve, is it useful to tell other people?" β
"Let's take an assumption, we have no grievances with that half-step immortal master, and it stands to reason that he will not come to kill us for no reason, but if we tell the news to others, it will expose his whereabouts and hinder what he has to do...... Isn't that tantamount to indirectly enmity with him? That way, even if he doesn't want to kill us, he has to kill us. β
Lu Li was stunned for a moment, as if he felt that he was reasonable, and couldn't find the words to refute it for a while.
Yan Jun snorted coldly: "Moreover, once the news is spread, it will inevitably cause panic among others, and if someone is greedy for life and afraid of death, and breaks the teleportation array and goes out, then how can the remaining few people go to find ice crystals, how to fight for rankings in the competition, and how to get the opportunity to enter Tianchi?" β
Lu Li's expression was entangled, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while.
"Brother Lu, what he said is reasonable, we should not tell the news to others for the time being." Li Changjing said softly: "There are so many Ice Clan masters, we should have discovered the situation here earlier, and we really need the help of other teammates, otherwise it will be difficult to get a ranking in the competition with just a few people." β
Lu Li sighed and had to compromise. After all, Miss Xu's injuries need Tianchi to heal, so getting the ranking of the conference is more important than anything else.
Yan Jun's tense face softened a little, and he said softly: "Three, since you can perceive the power of the origin, it proves that your strength and vision are very good, why don't we form a team together?" β
Li Changjing raised his eyebrows, "What do you say?" β
"Don't worry, the strength under the bottom, ask yourself if you are not under Brother Li." Yan Jun returned to his usual arrogant posture and said with a smile: "The two of us have teamed up, which can be said to be a strong alliance, which will be beneficial and harmless for the next journey to find ice crystals. β
"Of course, there are three of you, and I only have two people, so in terms of the division of ice crystals, it is natural that you have an extra share."
Li Changjing thought for a while and politely refused: "Good intentions." The three of us are used to being alone, and it is not suitable for us to be in company. β
Yan Jun looked pity, but he didn't force it, but before leaving, he said something inexplicable, "The three of you should do it yourself, the things in the Ice Clan are far more complicated than you know." β
After Yan Jun walked to the side, Xu Huairou was puzzled: "Why don't you agree to him, this guy is a stinky fart, but he does have strength." β
"I don't believe him." Li Changjing shook his head, "This Yan Jun gives me a very strange feeling, which makes me not like it. And this person has an extraordinary background, and seems to know things in the Ice Clan very well, and if we get too close to him, it will be easy to be tied up with him. β
Xu Huairou snorted, she actually just felt strange, Li Changjing's decision always had his reason, and she would always only support it.
After a while, ten foreign cultivators gathered together and began to discuss what to do next.
As the saying goes, the dragons can't be without a leader, as soon as the three leaders die, there will be no one to make decisions, the team seems to have lost its backbone, everyone has different looks, depressed, and morale is extremely low.
Some pessimistic people suggested breaking up, anyway, the ten of them were the weakest of the four teams, and now that the three team leaders have died, what qualifications do they have to play with other teams? I can't get the ranking horizontally and vertically, so it's better to be self-aware, break the teleportation stone, and leave the best.
Some people immediately objected, saying that there were more than two days left in the competition, and the way to get the ranking was not based on the number of people, but on the total number of ice crystals obtained by the team, and no one could know the result until the last minute.
This statement was agreed by most people, so they regained their strength, morale gradually rose, and some people even suggested that a new team leader should be elected to lead the team forward.
This suggestion was immediately approved by everyone, and the ten cultivators discussed it for a long time, and finally decided to elect Yan Jun as the new team leader, after all, when he was in the village, in the face of the three competitions set by Bingjiang, only Yan Jun won alone, and the strong combat power he showed at that time is still fresh in people's memories, plus he is a person from Jiangnan Tianzhu Peak, and the master is the famous Lonely Smoke in the sky, whether it is fame or strength, no one in the team can match.
Yan Jun saw that it was difficult to resist, so he had to agree. He first asked people to make three stretchers, lifted the bodies of the three team leaders, and then led the team to walk for more than two hours, out of the beast forest, and then broke the teleportation stones of the three team leaders and sent their bodies outside.
That way, the outside will soon know what happened here, and there's a good chance that the Ice Clan will send someone in to check on the situation, and all in all, their job is done, and the rest is none of their business.
Yan Jun led the team around the Forest of Beasts and continued to travel north.
On the way, Yan Jun warned everyone that they could act alone, but not too far away, and in case of danger, immediately call for help to their companions, and if their companions couldn't come in time, immediately break the teleportation stone and leave here, everything is about life.
I have to say that Yan Jun does have the talent of a leader, he is very comprehensive and thoughtful, he can't find fault with it, and he cares about the people in the team, so everyone is very convinced of him.
After walking for five or six hours, near the end of the afternoon, everyone came to the bottom of a valley, and suddenly the round-faced Bing Jiang, who was covered in injuries, appeared in front of him with a group of cultivators, his eyes were blood-red, his face was hideous, and as soon as they met, he shouted loudly: "Brothers, give it to me, kill them all!" β
