Chapter 44 - To each his own trick
After two days of investigation, Zhang Zhitao and the others found that Liu Yuan and the others were far away from Zhou Qian, and they happened to be going to the discovery of the Demon Spirit Sect, although they were not in a hurry, but the speed was also very fast.
Zhang Zhitao said to Wang Yan: "At present, Liu Yuan and the others are going to the Demon Spirit Sect, and they have no time to take care of Zhou Qian's affairs, so it is a good time for us to do it." We can't afford to miss this opportunity. ”
Wang Yan said: "Chen Feng has been secretly following Zhou Qian, and Zhou Qian is heading in the northeast direction. We followed the marks left by Chen Feng to catch up. This time he must be put to death. ”
Zhang Zhitao nodded and said, "We must not let go of this opportunity." Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be no chance in the future. ”
Ma Qiang nodded and said, "That's right." This opportunity must not be missed. ”
Liu Yun also nodded in agreement.
Zhang Zhitao said: "I heard that the combat effectiveness formed by the cooperation of the four juniors and disciples is extremely high, and I don't know if this time can open my eyes." ”
Although Zhang Zhitao's words sounded good, they pushed Wang Yan and others to the forefront of the fight against Zhou Gan, and to put it mildly, they were used as cannon fodder. Wang Yan and the others were not fools, so they naturally heard the meaning of Zhang Zhitao's words. They had suffered two losses from Zhou Qian, so they were naturally reluctant to take the lead.
What's more, Wang Yan and the others have been on guard against Zhang Zhitao, how can they do what he wants. Zhang Zhitao wanted to use them to deal with Zhou Qian, but they were not like this.
Wang Yan frowned and said: "Although our combat effectiveness has improved a lot with our cooperation, we have been defeated by Zhou Gan in the confinement room last time, and this time we are probably still not Zhou Gan's opponent." I have heard that Senior Brother Su is strong in martial arts, and I hope that Senior Brother will lead us in action. ”
Wang Yan's counterattack was neither humble nor arrogant, and Zhang Zhitao also frowned. Although Wang Yan's four people are very strong together, it is also a fact that they were defeated by Zhou Qian last time, and Zhang Zhitao is also very clear about this. He asked Wang Yan and them to strike first, just to let them fight and lose both, so that he could sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman. Although he and Wang Yan temporarily joined forces, their relationship was not good. If they didn't all feel that Zhou Qian was their biggest threat, no one would believe that they would join forces.
Zhang Zhitao's brows furrowed slightly, and then he stretched out quietly. Zhang Zhitao said in a flat tone: "Senior Brother Wang is too modest. After the last failure, you must have improved a lot. And the most important reason why you failed last time was that one of you was impulsive and broke away from the team, which gave Zhou Qian a chance to break through. This time, as long as you fight steadily, you will definitely be able to kill Zhou Qian!"
This time it was Wang Yan's turn to frown, after seeing Zhou Gan's power, they didn't want to rush to the front line against Zhou Gan, this time it was different from the last time, this time it was a real life-and-death fight, and if they weren't careful, they would die; besides, Zhang Zhitao was not their person, although they were cooperating for the time being, Wang Yan didn't believe him.
Wang Yan said calmly: "We have indeed improved, but Zhou Qian has already taken precautions against our cooperation, and we may not be able to achieve much effect by joining forces this time." ”
Zhang Zhitao smiled faintly: "Senior Brother Wang Yan is too modest. This time, Senior Brother Wang successfully broke through to the transformation stage, and the gap in strength between him and Zhou Qian has been greatly narrowed. And your cooperation will inevitably rise to a higher level, and your power will inevitably reach a higher level. ”
Wang Yan's face changed, his breakthrough had always been deeply hidden, and no one else knew except the four of them. After seeing Zhang Zhitao, he had been suppressing his breath to death, but he didn't expect to be seen by Zhang Zhitao, which made Wang Yan even more wary of Zhang Zhitao.
After replying. Wang Yan smiled faintly and said, "Although I have broken through to the transformation stage, because of my breakthrough, the cooperation is not as good as before. In the past, we were all the strength of the foundation building period, and the strength was about the same, and it was extremely powerful to cooperate. Now because of my breakthrough, there is a fault in strength, and the cooperation is not as tacit as before. ”
Hearing Wang Yan's words, Zhang Zhitao's face sank slightly, he didn't expect him to say so much, and he couldn't let Wang Yan and them deal with Zhou Qian first, and he didn't expect Wang Yan to be so difficult. He wanted Wang Yan and them to take the lead, but Wang Yan was not like this. Although they cooperated, they were wary of each other, and no one knew how long their fragile cooperation would last.
"Don't you want to wash away your shame? With your arrogance, can you tolerate being knocked down by Zhou Gan repeatedly? Wherever you fall, you have to get up somewhere. If you are defeated by Zhou Qian, you have to defeat him to prove yourself!" Zhang Zhitao said with a smile. When it comes to this, Zhang Zhitao can only use the last agitation method.
Wang Yan and the others' faces suddenly changed. The four of them were of noble birth and extremely talented, and they always considered themselves to be the pride of the sky. Zhang Zhitao is a few years older than them, and it doesn't matter if they lose to him, because they believe that they will be able to catch up in the future. But Zhou Qian was younger than them, and he was really angry when he lost to him, not to mention that Zhou Qian was still the son of a thief they despised.
At the beginning, losing to Zhou Qian in the competition had already annoyed them. Later, the four of them joined forces and were still defeated by him, which made them angry like thunder. How could they endure such a humiliation with their arrogance? They wanted to defeat Zhou Qian more than anyone else. However, this operation is a life-and-death fight, and no mistakes can be made, otherwise I am afraid that I will only suffer heavy losses and even lose my life.
"Don't you want to take revenge?" Zhang Zhitao saw Wang Yan's face and continued to add fuel and vinegar.
Wang Yan's face became blue and red, and the scar in his heart was picked out by Zhang Zhitao, and he still sprinkled a handful of salt fiercely. At this moment, he was almost about to agree, but reason told him that Zhang Zhitao was not a trustworthy person, and he could not completely listen to him, let alone be at his mercy.
At this time, Ma Qiang suddenly interjected: "Senior Brother Zhang, revenge is naturally important, but our personal safety is even more important. ”
Zhang Zhitao and Wang Yan were taken aback, and the former asked, "What do you mean?" ”
Ma Qiang said with a solemn face: "With the strength of the five of us, it is naturally easy to kill Zhou Gan, but there is a big hidden danger in this, and this hidden danger is those people from the Demon Spirit Sect. They have been with Zhou Qian for so long, and they left as soon as we came, is it too much of a coincidence. I'm afraid they're going to hunt us down. ”
Zhang Zhitao and Wang Yan's faces suddenly changed greatly, the relationship between the Demon Spirit Sect and the Martial Spirit Sect was not good, and the two sides had deep grievances, and no one dared to guarantee that the Demon Spirit Sect would suddenly attack them.
Zhang Zhitao asked, "Then what do you mean?"
Ma Qiang said: "We must send two people to keep an eye on them at all times and notify us immediately if anything happens, otherwise we will be wiped out." ”
What Ma Qiang meant, Zhang Zhitao and Wang Yan both understood that without two people, Wang Yan's cooperation would naturally not pose much of a threat to Zhou Gan, and when the time came, Zhang Zhitao would have to take the lead and be the main force. Thinking of this, Wang Yan smiled, and Zhang Zhitao's face was extremely unsightly. But it's not good-looking, it's not good-looking, the threat of the Demon Spirit Sect is too great, and no one dares to gamble with their own lives.
Zhang Zhitao took a deep breath and said lightly: "Then it's decided." I'll deal with Zhou Qian, and Wang Yan and Chen Feng will assist by the side. We must get rid of him this time. ”
