Chapter 145: Unlucky Ren Hanyue
These two people came to chase Zhou Houduan together, obviously planning to take advantage of their strength to exterminate Zhou Houduan and his nine companions in Funan Island.
Fortunately, Zhou Houduan had long expected that there would be more than one group of people attacking him on this Funan Island.
Before entering Funan Island, he had already found the best battle spots for himself in various areas of Funan Island.
The Yandang Mountain they were about to go to now was one of the seven locations he had chosen in advance.
There are no flowers and trees on this Yandang Mountain, and it was not originally a suitable location for Tibetans, but the rocks on Yandang Mountain have a special role in cutting off perception, so Zhou Houduan has been thinking about using the unique geographical environment here to fight ambush warfare from the moment he saw the information.
A group of ten people quickly got off the flying boat in Yandang Mountain, and under the instruction of Zhou Houduan, Shangguan Fei, Han Hongwei, and Ding Haochen respectively took Liu Haoqing, Lu Jingyi, and Sun Jiewu to find a hidden place to set up an ambush, and Ren Hanyue, who had cultivated enough but was not familiar with the terrain, took the remaining two pre-foundation monks Ye Yihai and Le Beilin to stay by Zhou Houduan's side.
As soon as they set up their position, the two teams of Zhou Houzhang and Min Xujie had already chased after them.
Zhou Houduan's right hand clasped on the array plate, and a stream of pure earth-based spiritual power flowed from his fingertips into the runes on the array plate.
The runes lit up, and all the monks of the three teams were encircled into the circle by the floating array stones.
As people everywhere continued to touch the magic circle and attract attacks, Zhou Houzhang and Min Xujie's team also resounded with a burst of scolding.
Ren Hanyue is not proficient in the magic circle, but she can still judge a little bit about the quality of the magic circle.
According to her rough observation, the set of magic circles that Zhou Houduan took out was not only offensive and defensive, but also of very good quality.
This kind of magic circle is usually the treasure at the bottom of the box that the monks use to save their lives at critical moments, and it is not so easy for Zhou Houzhang and Min Xujie to break the formation.
The next developments verified Ren Hanyue's speculation, under the sneak attack of Shangguan Fei, Han Hongwei, and Ding Haochen, Zhou Houzhang and Min Xujie's team soon appeared about seven or eight seriously injured, and even Zhou Houzhang and Min Xujie, who were protected by their teammates in the middle, were also slightly injured.
Min Xujie has always cherished his life like gold, and seeing that the situation was unfavorable to him, he hurriedly took out the thunder fruit given by the elders in the family and broke the formation with brute force.
Before coming to Funan Island, he soaked it for several days, and finally got a total of ten thunder fruits from his father.
This thunder fruit is a type of spirit plant, and it will explode when it is hit violently, and the power of the explosion is not inferior to the full force of a late-stage foundation building monk.
With these ten thunder fruits, Min Xujie would not have no chance of winning even if he was a monk in the late stage of foundation building.
He smashed down three thunder fruits in one go, and the magic circle laid by Zhou Houduan suddenly became turbulent.
Zhou Houzhang saw that there was an opportunity, and he hurriedly called the late-stage foundation building monks in his team to come over to help.
Zhou Houduan naturally wouldn't watch them break the formation, the five fingers of his right hand moved again and again, and the light on the array began to dim and brighten.
In an instant, earth-shaking changes had taken place in the circle.
The magic circle, which had already shown signs of collapse, became firm again, and the originally bare stone mountain became a boundless stretch of yellow sand.
**The spicy sun scorched the earth, and Zhou Houzhang, Min Xujie and others, who were suddenly thrown into the desert, were all stunned.
What they didn't know was that somewhere about two hundred miles away from them, Ren Hanyue, who was extremely unlucky, was also staring at the long yellow sand in front of them with a surprised expression.
She was coerced in when Zhou Houduan's magic circle changed, because the incident happened suddenly, and nine people, including Zhou Houduan, had no time to rescue her.
At this time, on Yandang Mountain on Funan Island, Zhou Houduan and others were also staring at a loss.
"Zhou Daoyou, please think of a way. Lu Jingyi grabbed Zhou Houduan's wide sleeves and pleaded, "There is only one person in Ren Daoyou, but there are twenty people on the other side, if we don't save her, her life will be lost." β
Zhou Hou replied to him with a smile that was more ugly than crying, "Lu Daoyou, if there is a way, will I watch my team lose a late-stage foundation building monk?"
Lu Jingyi looked at Zhou Houduan for a long time, and then his face turned white, and he let go of the hand holding Zhou Houduan's sleeve in a dejected manner.
Ding Haochen patted him on the shoulder, "Lu Daoyou, I think you also know that an accident like this caused by a mistake in the magic circle, even if the magic circle is repaired in the end, we can't make things go back to the situation before the magic circle went wrong." Now the only thing we can do for Ren Daoyou is to pray for her to be blessed and have a great life. β
Zhou Houduan, who looked apologetic, also nodded his head on the side, "I believe that Ren Daoyou will definitely be auspicious." The territory of that Yellow Sand Formation is very large, and she will definitely not be unlucky enough to run into Min Xujie and Zhou Houzhang. β
A far-fetched smile tugged at the corner of Lu Jingyi's mouth, "I hope." β
I don't know if it's the nestling plot, among all the people in this world, Lu Jingyi relies on and trusts the most Xia Weiyuan and Ren Hanyue who brought him from Yanzhou to the Holy Continent.
But after Xia Weiyuan, Ren Hanyue also left him without warning.
It is impossible to say that there is no uneasiness, but Lu Jingyi is also a genuine monk after all, even if he is uneasy, he will not be naΓ―ve enough to think that Xia Weiyuan and Ren Hanyue can be by his side for the rest of his life.
There is no banquet in the world that will not be dispersed, not to mention that he and Xia Weiyuan and Ren Hanyue are strictly speaking just a simple meeting in Pingshui.
After taking a deep breath, Lu Jingyi softened his face and asked Zhou Houduan, "How can Ren Daoyou get out of this yellow sand formation?"
Zhou Houduan hesitated for a moment before saying, "The easiest way is for me to close the magic circle, but Lu Daoyou, you have also seen that the ten of us can't deal with the other party's twenty people at all." β
Zhou Houduan's meaning was clearly that he would not use this method.
Lu Jingyi's heart was full of anger and went straight out, in order to avoid his gaffe, he took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
When he opened his eyes again, he had already regained his composure, "Zhou Daoyou, before we took the mission, you didn't say that there were so many people in Lanshan City who wanted to kill you. β
Zhou Houduan, Shangguan Fei, Han Hongwei, and Ding Haochen's faces were all a little unsightly, but they did have some reasons in this matter, so none of the four of them opened their mouths to refute Lu Jingyi.
Fortunately, Lu Jingyi mentioned this stubble at this time not to settle old accounts with Zhou Houduan, he did just to help Ren Hanyue fight for a glimmer of life.
"Ren Daoyou, she is a woman with a lot of promises, even if you hide something from us, she still chose to continue this task for the sake of the word Xinyi. The rabbit is dead and the fox is sad, and the thing hurts it, and I feel that even if you only rush this point, Zhou Daoyou, you shouldn't be so indifferent and resolute to Ren Daoyou. β
