Chapter 272 - 272 Temporary Peace
272 Temporary Peace
When the green light shield was about to be broken, the bump on Wu Ji patriarch’s forehead would shoot out a tiny green light to stabilize the green light shield.
One after another, the green light barrier stabilized and blocked the spear shadow’s self-destruction each time it was about to collapse.
Soon, the power of the spear shadows that filled the sky had been completely exhausted. In the blink of an eye, only a dozen or so black spear shadows were left. They descended in unison and shot directly toward the azure light shield.
“Your attack is nothing more than this!”
Seeing that the spear shadows covering the sky were about to be used up, Wu Ji patriarch’s smile grew wider. His fat was stacked on top of each other, making him look fierce and funny.
“I’ve said it before. It’s too early for you to be happy!”
Jing Wudao didn’t seem to care about Wu Ji patriarch’s mockery.
Before he could finish, Jing Wudao appeared above Wu Ji patriarch’s head. Dozens of black spear shadows shot out from his spear and stabbed at the green light shield!
“Take my spear!” Jing Wudao shouted as he thrust his spear forward. The blood-red light suddenly brightened, revealing its sharp edge and soaring killing intent. Dozens of pitch-black spear shadows instantly pierced the green light shield!
BOOM!
The explosion was even more deafening than before.
The indestructible green light was finally unable to resist the powerful spear and exploded.
A green light shot out, and the vital essence energy flowed.
Wu Ji patriarch was hit hard. He spat out blood and staggered back.
“Old dog, you’re still not going to die!”
Jing Wudao immediately brandished his spear, ready to pursue and attack.
The spear radiance pierced through the air and arrived in front of Wu Ji patriarch’s chest.
At this moment, the purple shadow suddenly appeared in front of Wu Ji patriarch sect’s patriarch. Liu Youcheng, who had been watching the battle, finally couldn’t help but make a move.
He saved Wu Ji patriarch in time and wrapped his long sleeve around the sharp tip of the spear.
The long spear that was fiercely stabbing down was instantly deflected to the side by the purple sleeve and pierced into the void.
Jing Wudao immediately retracted his spear and placed it behind his back, hovering in the air!
“What’s wrong? Are you guys planning to take turns? If you really have such a plan, why don’t you come together and save time?” He held the spear in his hand and spoke arrogantly.
Gu Mingzhou, who was in the distance, did not think that Jing Wudao’s words were arrogant.
Both He Youliang and Wu Ji patriarch were top existences in this world, but Jing Wudao had defeated them, so they had the power to say such words.
However, that didn’t mean that the others present thought the same.
The brawny man with a sharp mouth stood side by side with Wu Ji patriarch and looked up at Jing Wudao.
“Arrogant brat, let me teach you a lesson!” a terrifying pressure burst forth from the sharp-mouthed man’s body, instantly filling the entire world.
Liu Youcheng suddenly stretched out his hand and stopped the sharp-mouthed man.
“Don’t be in a hurry. How about you let this little brother speak first?” Liu Youcheng saved Wu Ji patriarch, but he didn’t pay any attention to him. Instead, he turned to Jing Wudao and cupped his hands at the sharp-mouthed man.
“This…” Pei Guang, the man with the pointed mouth, subconsciously turned around and looked at the man holding the white fan in the back.
Seeing him nod, he then nodded slightly at Liu Youcheng.
“Better make friends than make enemies. Why don’t we make peace?”
“Make peace?”
Jing Wudao couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
He was indeed very powerful, but his mission was to protect Gu Mingzhou.
He didn’t care about anything else.
Therefore, when Liu Youcheng proposed a peace treaty, he subconsciously looked at Gu Mingzhou for his opinion.
“In your opinion, how do you want to negotiate?” Gu Mingzhou was also confused, but Jing Wudao naturally knew what he meant when he looked over.
It would be fine if he spoke when the two sides met.
But now, they were suddenly negotiating for peace. Naturally, it was hard to believe.
Moreover, it was clear that Jing Wudao had the upper hand in the current situation. If Liu Youcheng were to ask for peace at this time, it was inevitable people would think that he was being forced into a disadvantageous position.
Therefore, Gu Mingzhou had some doubts about Liu Youcheng’s words.
The source of all the changes was ultimately still the purple energy that had suddenly shot out at the critical moment.
The most important thing was to deal with Liu Youcheng and the others.
“As expected, heroes come from youngsters.” Liu Youcheng seemed to have expected this. A smile appeared on his face, and he rose directly into the air. He stopped three meters in front of Jing Wudao and Gu Mingzhou, then cupped his hands and said,
His words were full of flattery, but they made Gu Mingzhou frown.
As the saying goes, when enemies meet, their gaze red with hate.
However, Liu Youcheng did not reveal any malicious intent, so he naturally had to be cautious.
Sometimes, people like this were even more terrifying!
“No matter what grudge we have between us, it’s all mortal grudges. Now that we’ve all come here, we’re all here for the opportunity.” Liu Youcheng went straight to the point and explained.
The ancient remnant space was full of danger. Since everyone had the same goal, why not turn enemies into friends and form an alliance?
As for grudges, how could they be more important than benefits?
“No wonder I didn’t see Liu Youcheng and the others when I was hiding from Xu Fengyu. They’ve been here for a long time.”
Gu Mingzhou thought to himself.
Liu Youcheng’s words just now directly state the pros and cons.
It was undoubtedly a win-win method if both sides came for opportunities and turned enemies into friends.
However, Liu Youcheng did not expect that Gu Mingzhou was simply avoiding Xu Fengyu and had no other intentions.
However, since he had already come to this ancient space, he would really be letting down this opportunity if he didn’t enter.
Naturally, he would not be so foolish as to tell Liu Youcheng that he had appeared here to avoid Xu Fengyu’s pursuit. To Gu Mingzhou, it was naturally best if he could avoid fighting. After all, Jing Wudao’s powers were largely thanks to the sudden purple light just now, and Gu Mingzhou wasn’t sure if the purple light would come again. If Liu Youcheng gave up on the peace negotiations and chose to fight to the death with Gu Mingzhou and Jing Wudao…
Jing Wudao wasn’t afraid, but fighting one against five was still a huge risk. Moreover, someone among the other party had come out to deal with Gu Mingzhou. If the other four were to hold Jing Wudao back, it would probably be difficult for Jing Wudao to protect Gu Mingzhou.
Turning enemies into friends and temporarily cooperating was the best solution. The reason why the two old enemies, Wu Ji patriarch sect’s ancestor and Liu Youcheng, could become friends and appear here, was probably because of luck. Coupled with the great opportunity that Jing Wudao mentioned earlier, Gu Mingzhou was now filled with curiosity and couldn’t wait to go take a look.
“Since Hall Master Liu is so generous, I naturally can’t refuse you. However, the two of you might not be willing to do so. If you launch a sneak attack on me, I’m afraid I’ll lose my life here!” Gu Mingzhou knew that Liu Youcheng’s proposal for cooperation was largely due to the strength Jing Wudao had displayed.
Otherwise, the other party would not have given such a benefit to Gu Mingzhou directly.
