C400 Let's See Some Fireworks
Ye Xu stared at the man in white. He had clearly lost one of his arms, but the man in white looked proud, as if he had just lost one of his arms.
Where did he get his confidence from?
"With just you? Or your fifteen subordinates. Oh, that's not right. I'm not even satisfied with ten of them now. " Ye Xu looked at the man in white and said.
Just now, a group of beasts had attacked and injured many of the Ardent Flame Sect's men. Some of them had also noticed that the situation wasn't good and had fled.
Therefore, Ye Xu was very curious as to why the man in white dared to challenge him.
The man in white didn't seem to have heard Ye Xu's mockery. He raised his sword with his left hand and pointed it at Ye Xu.
Ye Xu also lost his patience. A cold light flashed in his eyes. His body was like a sword, and his sword was like a heart. It was like a sword light was slashing at the man in white.
In an instant, the sword light was piercingly cold. It was like fireworks during the time of the Lantern Festival. Each strike was deadly, and each strike carried a strong killing intent.
"Bang!"
The man in white was kicked to the ground by Ye Xu. The Nine Tribulation Divine Sword came down and directly cut into his chest!
Blood splattered everywhere. The clothes that were originally not covered in white cloth were now completely dyed red. At this moment, perhaps he should call him the man in red.
"I will remember you."
The man in white's eyes revealed a trace of deep and mocking. He did not have any fear of death. However, he was still a flesh and blood man. How could he not die after being stabbed in the heart by Ye Xu?
When the man in white breathed his last, his eyes stared at Ye Xu like maggots in his bones, making people feel very unpleasant.
Ye Xu looked at his corpse for a long time. Other than the name, identity, and martial skills in the library, he did not find anything. Therefore, Ye Xu did not understand why the man in white could show such a confident look even when he died.
It was as if he did not die at all.
However, the corpse in front of him could not be faked.
This Ardent Flame Sect didn't seem as simple as it looked.
Ye Xu took a deep breath. No matter how fearful he was, in order to obtain the Ethereal Sect's ranking, he would always encounter the Ardent Flame Sect.
Because Ye Xu had killed the man in white, the panicking people of the Ardent Flame Sect had turned into scattered sand. A large number of demonic beasts were wantonly killing them.
Soon, there were no longer any people standing on the battlefield.
The black beast felt dizzy. This was the symptom of losing too much blood, but it didn't dare to faint. It held its saber and looked at the man who had killed the people of the Ardent Flame Sect.
It had never thought that there would be someone who could control so many demon beasts. It had never thought that the white-clothed man, who seemed to have a high status, would be killed by Ye Xu with just a single slash. It had actually managed to survive on the brink of death.
Seeing the man who had killed the white-clothed man looking at him, Black Beast instinctively took a step back. Then, the man said, "I am Ye Xu. I can let you guys escape with yellow talismans. But you have to tell me how you fell into the encirclement of the Ardent Flame Sect."
"Really?" Black Beast asked back subconsciously. He looked into Ye Xu's eyes and smiled bitterly.
Their team had suffered heavy losses from betrayal. Even if Ye Xu really wanted to kill them, it would not be difficult. If he asked this question, it would expose his fear of Ye Xu.
He made up his mind and told ___ everything.
Actually, it was quite simple. Feng Lie was originally a person planted by the Ardent Flame Sect. After luring them into the encirclement of the Ardent Flame Sect, he immediately rebelled and asked Black Beast and the rest to join the Ardent Flame Sect.
Black Beast refused to follow them. When they were facing a life and death crisis, Ye Xu brought the beasts and saved them from the crisis as if a god had descended upon them.
"Ye Xu, you have killed the people of the Ardent Flame Sect. They won't let this matter rest. I heard from Feng Lie that Ardent Flame Sect has been gathering their men. Although there were only ten disciples participating in the competition, a large number of people from the outside world had gathered. I estimate that there are more than fifty to sixty of them! "
Although Ye Xu had already heard about this from Zhou Hui, he still had a solemn expression on his face when he heard it.2
"Where are the people from the Green Lotus Sect?" Ye Xu asked. Logically speaking, the Green Lotus Sect wouldn't just sit and watch. After all, their relationship with the Ardent Flame Sect was no longer as friendly as before. It was more like they were competing with each other.
"There are no more people from the Green Lotus Sect!" Black Beast smiled bitterly. He said helplessly, "That Feng Lie said that the group from the Green Lotus Sect had already been intercepted by the Ardent Flame Sect. A few ordinary disciples have died, and the rest have been imprisoned."
"Why are they imprisoned?" Although he was worried about Yang Ming, Ye Xu had asked the key question.
If it was just a fight for the quota of the Ethereal Sect, they could either kill him or use the yellow talisman to force the disciples of the Green Lotus Sect out. What was the point of imprisoning them?
"I don't know about that either. After all, the sect has its own reasons for doing things. How can ordinary people speculate about it?" The black beast said.
Ye Xu nodded. Black Beast had said a lot. At least, he had his next target, which was to try his best to kill the dogs of Ardent Flame Sect.
"Ye Xu!" A slightly impatient voice was heard. Ye Xu turned around and saw Xie Yuhua.
He heard her say, "Ye Xu, I have to save Yang Ming and the others."
Xie Yuhua, who had always been steady, looked anxious at this moment. Although she was talking about saving Yang Ming, it was obvious that she was more worried about her two junior brothers.
Ye Xu suddenly understood why the Ardent Flame Sect wanted to imprison the disciples of the Green Lotus Sect. They wanted to lure Xie Yuhua out and catch all of them in one fell swoop!
Other than that, there was no other reason!
"We have to save her, but not now."
There had been some cracks in Yang Ming's relationship with him recently, but Ye Xu owed him a favor. No matter what, Yang Ming was indeed a friend worth befriending.
However, the Ardent Flame Sect was aggressive and overbearing. It was obvious that they had made ten thousand preparations. If they rushed over just like that, they would certainly fall into their trap.
"I know." Xie Yuhua took a deep breath. After all, she was Jiang Ruowan's proud disciple. She should be well-educated. Even though she was extremely anxious in her heart, she forced herself to calm down.
After sending Black Beast and the others away, Ye Xu interrogated a few more men from the Ardent Flame Sect. However, these men were originally desperate. As long as they had money, they wouldn't care about any conspiracy.
Apart from the man in white, whose name was Jiang Lan, and the place where the disciples of the Green Lotus Sect were imprisoned, he didn't know anything else.
Ye Xu decisively took their heads.
"Young master, the Ardent Flame Sect is able to keep such strict and conservative information, so how could they leak the place where the disciples of the Green Lotus Sect are imprisoned? This must be done on purpose."
Yaoguang said slowly, her tone was filled with worry. She knew that with Ye Xu's character, he would definitely not let Yang Ming go.
Furthermore, Xie Yuhua was still there. Xie Yuhua had saved the quiet Ning Cheng. These two were also kind and benevolent people. They would definitely not ignore Xie Yuhua.
The battle with the Ardent Flame Sect was inevitable. What she needed to do was to perfect the plan for this trip as much as possible.
When the others heard Yaoguang's words, they all expressed their agreement.
It was such an obvious trap. One look and one could tell, but this was the source of the Ardent Flame Sect's confidence - I will wait here. Do you dare to come?!
"It's fine." Ye Xu smiled. "Didn't Zhou Bi give us some small things before he left? Keer, you should be familiar with this mechanism."
"That's right." Wang Keer also smiled. She obviously knew what Ye Xu wanted to do.
Ye Xu looked towards the south. That was where the Ardent Flame Sect was located. The corner of his mouth curled up, and for some reason, there was a strong smell on his body.
"Since you are ready, let's light some fireworks for the friends of the Ardent Flame Sect to see!"
