C203 I've Lured the Snake out of Its Hole
Those who were sitting cross-legged to recover their spiritual energy all stood up. Even some of the disciples who were lying on the ground due to injuries raised their heads, wanting to take a look at Ye Xu who came from all the beasts.
"He really came... So powerful!"
"There are so many beasts, how did he do it? If I were him, I would have been eaten by demon beasts long ago!"
"My God, he's not injured?! Those are thousands upon thousands of demon beasts, how can he survive!?"
After a period of silence, the disciples gathered around Ye Xu. They were all exclaiming, and their eyes were like malt candy, sticking to Ye Xu's body and not moving.
Different from the excited, excited, and disbelieving gazes of the disciples, Elder Gu felt a trace of anger in his heart.
He looked at Ye Xu and said sternly, "Why did you come here!?"
Ye Xu was stunned. He did not know where this Elder's anger came from. He only looked at the stern gaze of the elder, but he could not ignore the pain in his heart. He said honestly,
"I heard the order to gather and the black smoke indicated that I came here."
Elder Gu held his breath, and then he regretted it.
How could he have the face to scold Ye Xu? It was indeed him who sent his disciples over. After that, because the demonic beasts were so powerful, he thought that all the disciples outside had died, so he didn't warn them not to come over.
It was all his fault. Ye Xu was only a young disciple, so he could only listen to his orders.
Elder Gu vented his anger and shook his head. "It's all my fault. You shouldn't have come here. We are already surrounded by demonic beasts. If you were outside, you might still be alive with your movement technique."
Only now did Ye Xu understand what Elder Gu was thinking. He couldn't help but feel touched and felt a sense of belonging to the Medicine Valley.
It was very difficult to feel this in the Profound Dragon Sect. After all, there were very few sects like the Medicine Valley that could treat their disciples with sincerity.
"Since we are here, we should be at ease. With Elder Gu here, I can feel at ease." Ye Xu said with a smile. His tone was full of trust.
Indeed, as the leader of the disciples of Medicine Valley, all of them believed that he could lead them to live. How could he lose the confidence to win?!
Elder Gu regained his spirit and said to Ye Xu, "When the demon beasts attack, you will follow me."
Ye Xu nodded his head obediently. Following by Elder Gu's side gave him a chance to live. Elder Gu was taking special care of him.
Another wave of demon beasts attacked. This time, it was a double attack from the bottom of the mountain and in the air.
Elder Gu had lightning symbols that could kill the birds and beasts in the sky. The demon beasts at the bottom of the mountain were led by the other reverends.
Ye Xu also joined the battle. A long sword and sword intent were soaring into the sky. The Nine Layer Sword was endless, like surging waves. He used the Nirvana Sword Technique, and in an instant, the sound of thunder rolled out, making the demon beasts afraid to advance.
If the enemy retreated, he would advance. Of course, Ye Xu wouldn't let go of this opportunity. He led his disciples and charged forward.
The Nine Tribulations Sword was unleashed seven times, and the black blade was dyed blood-red. The murderous aura and sword Qi were everywhere, wreaking havoc among the demonic beasts.
Fortunately, there was only a three meter gap on the way up the mountain. Ye Xu divided the majority of the demonic beasts' attacks and guarded the narrow intersection. He was like a majestic victory as he raised his sword and swung it down. One by one, the demon beasts' lives were taken.
After fighting for an hour, the demon beasts retreated like the tide, and the birds and beasts in the sky scattered. This wave of attack ended here.
The disciples were so tired that they collapsed to the ground. Not only were they physically exhausted, but they also felt uneasy in their hearts. However, when they saw Ye Xu's tall figure rushing to the front, their hearts gradually calmed down.
Ye Xu did not know that he had unknowingly become a spiritual leader. He suddenly had a feeling that he was playing a tower defense game. However, once he lost, he wanted the lives of all the disciples in the Valley of Medicine. It was impossible for him to live again.
He began to think of a way out.
The Heavenly Palace on top of Cloud Peak could only be accessed by people with the bloodline of the God Clan. The small world of herbs at the top of Cloud Peak was restricted, and only those who accepted the Inheritance could enter.
Therefore, he had a way out, but the other disciples of the Medicine Valley had no way out.0
Although Ye Xu had just joined the Medicine Valley, he could deeply feel the warmth of the Medicine Valley. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he didn't want to use such a method to live alone.
So, the only thing he could do now was to fight with his life on the line.
He thought of all kinds of strange things happening to demon beasts, and a bold idea suddenly emerged in his mind.
He hurriedly told this guess to Elder Gu.
"You're saying that the demon beast riot this time was man-made?"
Elder Gu squinted his eyes and looked at Ye Xu as he spoke slowly.
Ye Xu nodded his head. "I found that the demon beast blood will emit a strange fragrance, and this fragrance is a kind of fragrance called 'Mandara Flower'. This flower can make people delirious, and their mind is trapped in a dream. However, the body is manipulated by others. "
Ye Xu pointed at a demon beast corpse and continued: "There is a grass patch in Heavenly Vein with many Mandara Flowers growing inside. However, a demon beast like the Azure Mist Beast hates the fragrance of flowers the most, so it can't take the initiative to go to the grass field. Not to mention the Mandara Flower Poison, so the demon beasts of this scale started a riot. There must be someone behind it. "
" Moreover, I see that the demon beasts are attacking in an orderly manner. Every once in a while, there will be birds and beasts harassing them. After circling for a while, they will fly to a place not far away and stare at us covetously. This is actually a psychological tactic. No one knows when the birds and beasts will attack, just like there is a sword hanging above their heads. It was as if they had been slashed down at some unknown time. They were deeply worried and could not take a good rest at all. This kind of psychological tactic can only be played by people. "
Ye Xu's heart was also heavy. If a demon beast ate something bad, the collective revolt would be better than the current situation. At least demon beasts didn't know tactics.
A storm was raging in Elder Gu's heart. He took a deep breath and suppressed the shock.
He also had this kind of suspicion, but that suspicion was like a layer of paper that couldn't be seen clearly.
The reason was that he did not notice that the strange fragrance of the demon beast blood was the Mandara Fragrance.
Now that he knew, it was like a heavy hammer, hitting him until he was dizzy.
It was man-made, it was a conspiracy!
Just who was it that wanted to harm the Medicine Valley?!
Elder Gu took a deep breath and exhaled again. He looked straight at Ye Xu and said, "What do you think?"
"I want to lure the snake out of its hole and find out who is behind this. Those who can understand the Mandala Flower must at least know the pharmacology, and those who can enter the Heavenly Vein must be from the Medicine Valley."
"How do we lure the snake out of its hole?"
"This man is very scheming. It seems like he wants to use the beast tide to kill all of us, but I still don't understand his intention, nor do I know what benefits he can get here."
"Previously, we speculated that he was from the Medicine Valley. Let's assume that he killed all of us for the sake of money. It was impossible for him to escape from the Heavenly Vein. The Valley Master and the other Elder wouldn't let him go either. Money is useless. If this man was a spy from another major power, he would have been investigated by the Medicine Valley. At this moment, he should let the demonic beasts charge at him without any regard for their safety, regardless of whether it was successful or not. It's the Medicine Valley's loss. There's no need to surround us like this. We should always feel that there is hope for us to survive. "
"Excluding a few possibilities, the remaining one is obsession. This man has a deep hatred for the Medicine Valley. He wants to stab us bit by bit with his blade, giving us hope, and finally giving us despair."
Elder Gu nodded his head, and a look of appreciation appeared in his eyes.
Although Ye Xu's idea was a little far-fetched, he had his own reasons for doing so. It was not fabricated. In such a heavy encirclement, he was able to remain calm all the time. He was truly worthy of being the person that Valley Master had taken a liking to!
"What should we do?" Elder Gu asked. Unknowingly, he had taken Ye Xu as the leader and asked Ye Xu for guidance like a disciple.
Ye Xu didn't expect Elder Gu to believe his words so easily. He smiled and said in a clear voice, "I have a bold idea. I wonder if Elder Gu will dare to give it a try!?"
