Chapter 2244: Chapter 2244: You Have to Catch Me First!
"Ye Haochuan, you..." Upon seeing Ye Haochuan appear, Le Yao’s face instantly lit up with joy, and a sudden sense of safety arose in her heart, which made her feel very comfortable.
But then, her expression suddenly changed, and she hurriedly said, "What are you doing out here? Are you looking to die? Why don’t you hurry back?"
"What? Are you so afraid of my death that you’ve really fallen deeply in love with me?" Ye Haochuan said with a mischievous smile.
"You..." Le Yao trembled in anger, glaring at Ye Haochuan with hatred.
She couldn’t understand why, in such a dangerous environment, Ye Haochuan was still so relaxed.
"Enough with the flirting, once you’re in my Formation, even with a Minor World, you won’t get in!" Gu Dewei said smugly from the side.
The Formation here was meticulously arranged by him, so it would not allow Ye Haochuan to escape back into the Minor World.
Therefore, within the Formation, he specially arranged a Formation to restrict spatial fluctuations, which was activated the moment Ye Haochuan appeared.
As he spoke, he slowly stood up, greedily staring at Ye Haochuan and said, "Young man, your collection of treasures really makes this old man envious. Since you’ve come all this way to give me treasures, I’ll graciously leave you with a whole corpse."
"An old monster at the True Immortal Late Stage is using such a complicated Formation to deal with a young junior at the Immortal Transformation Stage. You really have a thick skin!" Ye Haochuan sighed and shook his head.
"Faced with death, you still dare speak so insolently. Well then, since you’re so unappreciative, this old man won’t hold back. I’ll grind you both into minced meat, mixing you together; it might as well make you inseparable for eternity!"
With that said, Gu Dewei’s eyes flashed sharply, and the shadows of blades in the Formation accelerated towards Ye Haochuan to chop him down. He himself was not idle, wielding the Dragon Patterned Great Saber to give Ye Haochuan no chance at all.
Le Yao was terrified, desperately deploying her defense means, trying to resist with all her might.
But Ye Haochuan remained calm, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her along, saying, "Let’s go!"
"What?" Le Yao was puzzled, wondering how they could escape the attacks of Gu Dewei and the shadow blades in a Formation that restricted movement; wasn’t this a death wish?
But the next moment, she suddenly discovered that the "swamp" that had been restraining her had disappeared without a trace. Even those shadow blades completely ignored her.
"What’s going on?" Le Yao felt her head spin. When Ye Haochuan paused outside the Formation, she hurriedly looked back.
She saw that Gu Dewei, who was previously incredibly fast, was now hindered by the Formation, his speed significantly reduced. Moreover, countless shadow blades were also hacking at him; although they hadn’t hurt him, he looked rather embarrassed.
"This... how is it possible?" Le Yao was stunned.
This Formation was clearly set up by Gu Dewei, so how could it suddenly start hindering him?
Gu Dewei was also shocked. After blocking a wave of shadow blade attacks, he roared, "Brat, what have you done?"
Ye Haochuan tossed the Xuan Pin Pearl in his hand, grinning, "What, did you forget the uses of your own Magical Treasure?"
"Xuan Pin Pearl?" Gu Dewei frowned, snorted, "Impossible, the Xuan Pin Pearl can indeed assist in breaking Formations, but it doesn’t have the effect of controlling others’ Formations. You must have used another Magical Treasure!"
"Oh? It seems this old monster hasn’t figured out your true ability!" Ye Haochuan chuckled, looking at the Xuan Pin Pearl in his hand, feeling delighted inside.
According to his judgment, the reason the Xuan Pin Pearl could exhibit more power in his hands might be related to the Tai Chi Diagram and his blood.
Seeing Ye Haochuan’s demeanor, Gu Dewei realized Ye Haochuan wasn’t lying, and his face turned sour.
The Xuan Pin Pearl had been with him for years, yet he never discovered its ability to control others’ Formations. In Ye Haochuan’s hands for just a day or two, and its potential was uncovered; it was clearly his incompetence.
"Brat, I won’t let this go easily with you!" Gu Dewei shouted furiously. When his aura spread, all the shadow blades in the Formation shattered into pieces.
"Won’t let this go? You still have to catch me first!" Ye Haochuan chuckled, instantly pulling Le Yao into the Minor World, while he gradually faded into the darkness.
Gu Dewei roared in rage, wanting to rush over and drag Ye Haochuan out from the darkness. But the Formation’s operation eventually hindered him in a moment, and in that moment, Ye Haochuan had already escaped far away.
Gu Dewei’s face looked like he’d lost his entire family.
Originally, he wanted to snatch the Minor World and other treasures from Ye Haochuan but unexpectedly got his Xuan Pin Pearl taken, and using the Xuan Pin Pearl, Ye Haochuan safely escaped. It was clearly a case of lifting a rock to drop it on one’s own foot.
What drove him most crazy was Ye Haochuan’s bizarre escape techniques, sometimes invisible, sometimes hiding in the Minor World, trying to catch him was simply a dream.
"Brat, wait until tomorrow, I’ll claim that Medicine King Tomb and make sure we have an unending fight. Even if I have to chase to the ends of the earth, I will tear you limb from limb!" Gu Dewei yelled in hatred before turning back into the house.
"Tomorrow, huh?" Ye Haochuan, hidden in the nearby darkness, curved his lips into an intriguing smile.
He hadn’t left immediately because he wanted to learn more about the Medicine King Tomb, never expecting Gu Dewei to be so "kind" as to tell him directly, saving him the investigation time.
Ye Haochuan then left the courtyard where Gu Dewei was, searching around the Gu Family yet unable to find a suitable candidate.
He wanted to use the False Face Technique to impersonate one of the Gu Family members and sneak into the team going to Medicine King Valley.
His Cultivation was only at the Immortal Transformation Peak, so he could only impersonate Cultivators below the Immortal Transformation Peak. If he impersonated a True Immortal Expert, the facade would break as soon as the aura was revealed.
However, how many Cultivators below the True Immortal rank are qualified to attend such a confidential event?
Amidst his distress, a thought suddenly flashed, and he slapped his forehead, scolding himself: "Silly me, I should have used the Ghost Escape Technique to search, I might find someone eligible."
He acted upon it, finding a hidden warehouse to conceal his body, his Soul flying swiftly to specifically target Peak Cultivators of the Immortal Transformation Stage.
After a busy half-night, Ye Haochuan didn’t know how many people he had scouted, finally finding a suitable candidate...
This was a handsome young man with fair skin, lying quietly on a bed, with mist rising a few meters away behind a screen, accompanied by the sound of water.
Ye Haochuan quietly glanced over and discovered a charming woman bathing.
In a room with a single young man and woman, one waiting naked, the other washing delicately, something seemed about to happen between them, it was quite obvious.
Ha ha, who’d have thought that while looking for a candidate, I’d come across such a good thing!
Ye Haochuan was overjoyed, quickly returning to his body, then quietly approached, easily knocked out the pretty boy, tossed him into the Minor World, and completed his disguise with the False Face Technique, happily lying down on the bed...
