Ye Xiao was puzzled as to what these guys are planning, but it doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter if they had placed the Azure Divine Lotus here on purpose or not. Since he was already here, not only will he take away the Azure Divine Lotus and the Azure Divine Pearl, but he’ll also completely destroy these guys’ plans.
Bo Zhan, on the other hand, was also feeling something was off. He has no idea what it is, but for the first time, he felt that being with Ye Xiao is much safer than staying alone within a crowd of hundreds of people.
He has a feeling that his life is in danger from the moment he stepped into this village created from an illusion. He did not want to die and decided to take the risk.
Although he might be exposed that he helped Ye Xiao, but at this moment, his institution was telling him not to waste time and do what he has to do.
Completely disregarding the worry in his heart, Bo Zhan came to Ye Xiao and greeted him first before telling him that he is having a bad feeling about this place and wanted to stay with Ye Xiao. He hopes that Ye Xiao will not chase him away.
Ye Xiao did not chase Bo Zhan away. Although this man did not stop Bo Yuan from taking action against him and even ignored every step Bo Yuan and the one-eyed man took, at least he never intended to do anything to Ye Xiao himself. He never intended to kill Ye Xiao.
If someone wants to kill Ye Xiao, he will not interfere, and if no one wants to kill Ye Xiao, then it is also good.
This was the kind of thinking Bo Zhan had in his heart.
He never intended to do anything to Ye Xiao, but he also never intended to stop anyone from doing something bad to Ye Xiao.
Well, since Bo Zhan never intended to harm Ye Xiao, Ye Xiao also did not think much about this matter.
Anyway, the perpetrator is already dead.
Being with Ye Xiao for a few minutes, he also got to know about the trap. He was shocked, and his team members were also terrified.
“Young Master Ling, you mean to say that they had placed the Azure Divine Lotus here on purpose so that we can search for it?” Bo Zhan quickly understood what Ye Xiao meant. He could not help but ask curiously, “What is their purpose in doing this?”
“This is not important. When there is chaos in a while, don’t keep fighting. You can take the opportunity to escape.” Ye Xiao thought for a moment and said, “This Azure Divine Lotus is just a conspiracy.”
Ye Xiao had already guessed the truth through some fragments he just observed. All the teams here were sent by either the Jun Family or the Zhou Family. As for the other few teams, they came after they got to know about the Azure Divine Pearl and Azure Divine Lotus, and wanted to try their luck.
It is said that the Jun Family and the Zhou Family were fighting with each other because of Azure Divine Lotus and Azure Divine Pearl.
What if they were doing this on purpose?
What if they were fighting with a purpose?
What if their purpose was to spread the news about Azure Divine Lotus and Azure Divine Pearl, and make people form as many teams as they could and come searching for these two treasures?
It was very likely that the news about Azure Divine Lotus and Azure Divine Pearl was purposely released by the Jun Family and the Zhou Family.
And since these two families are associated with two overlord forces, the main villains in this story are likely those two overlord forces.
Well, there was also the Ice Beast Hall. It is also participating in this search for treasure, but no one really saw them. Everyone had only heard about them.
Ye Xiao does not really know what is going on with this overlord force. Whether the Ice Beast Hall is also involved in this plan or not, only time will reveal.
These forces wanted to borrow the lives of countless people to complete the sacrifice. They want to achieve something greater by sacrificing the lives of countless people.
As a Level 6 Formation Master, Ye Xiao was already well-versed in formations. He could see that these people had used the altar to set up the formation that could absorb the vitality of people.
The Jun Family and the Zhou Family are really cruel. In order to achieve something greater, they do not even hesitate to use so many lives as the price. However, their thoughts were also meticulous.
If it wasn’t for Ye Xiao, no one here probably would have been able to find out anything.
This Azure Divine Pearl and Azure Divine Lotus really existed but for a plan.
“Young Master Ling, do you really think all of this is a conspiracy?” Bo Zhan still could not believe it and asked with a pale face. If all of this was a conspiracy, wouldn’t everyone here be in danger now?
“Hmm.”
Ye Xiao nodded and said. “Don’t hesitate when you run later. They have put up such a big show, they must be plotting something big.”
While Ye Xiao was talking with Xiao Lin and Bo Zhan, the few people guarding the altar frowned slightly.
“Why are there so many people? I thought less than a hundred people would come at a time. But there are already more than a hundred. And it seems more are coming.”
“Looks like the map we spread were sold by some leaders for money. It doesn’t really matter though. The more the better.”
“Should we take action now?” another one asked.
“Let’s wait a little longer?” The person beside him said.
While they were talking, their eyes were fixed on a bald old man at the edge of the altar.
This bald old man wore a string of golden beads, and his eyes were closed. However, there was a hint of fiendish aura on his face. He suddenly opened his eyes, and there was a flash of blood in his eyes.
“How are the preparations for our array formation?” The bald old man asked in a hoarse voice.
“It’s ready, Master.” Someone at the side said hurriedly.
The bald old man nodded his head in satisfaction and said with disdain: “Prepare our Devil Cloud Formation. Later I need to use their lives to complete the ritual.”
“Yes”
The man said and obediently retreated.
…..
“They’re about to begin.” Ye Xiao suddenly said in a flat tone.
“What are they going to start?” Bo Zhan asked in surprise.
“Killing everyone.” Ye Xiao turned to Bo Zhan and said indifferently.
A trace of confusion flashed across Bo Zhan’s eyes. Are those people going to kill them?
With so many people here, could they really kill all of them in one go? This was completely impossible.
At this moment, some members of other teams had already sneaked into the village. Now that the Azure Divine Pearl was in front of them, the greed in their hearts had long overcome their fear.
“What is this?”
Just as they were about to reach the edge of the village, they saw waves of red fog permeating the air. The red fog gradually condensed in the air and slowly turned into a red cloud. Gradually, the cloud floated above their heads.
They stared at the red cloud above their heads in shock, clearly not understanding what it was.
At this moment, the village in front of them suddenly disappeared. They saw a clear pond in front of them.
This clear pond seemed to float on the ground. A lotus flower bloomed in the middle of this clear pond. In the middle of this lotus flower, there was a blue bead that kept spinning.
“That is… The Azure Divine Lotus. The bead in the middle is undoubtedly the Azure Divine Pearl!”
Someone suddenly shouted.
“Everyone, let’s snatch it!” 𝐞𝗼𝘃𝐞𝐥．𝗰𝐨𝗺
“Go!”
They crazily charged toward the location of the Azure Divine Pearl.
However, just as they took two steps forward, the red cloud floating above their heads suddenly rained down. The red rain enveloped them.
“Ahhh!”
“What the hell is that?”
These red raindrops fell on their bodies. At first, they felt a slight itch on their bodies, but very quickly, they felt a severe pain of erosion that kept assaulting them.
They fell to the ground one by one, their mouths letting out waves of wails, as if they were experiencing great pain again.
“Not good. Everyone quickly retreat, there’s something wrong with this rainwater!” Someone exclaimed.
At this moment, these people quickly stopped in their tracks. They could also tell that they were in trouble. The red rainwater is not simple and could erode them to death.
People could also feel the moment the red rainwater fell on their bodies, their life force started being sucked away.
