Chapter 1511: Chapter 0869: Who is the Thief_2 Chapter 1511: Chapter 0869: Who is the Thief_2 Chen Huai’s face was bitter with frustration. Qi Tian had piled reason upon reason—silencing him and branding him as unfilial. What could he say? He could only force a smile and respond, “If that is so, please, Ancestor and Great Elder, grant a mont. I will descend to the ground to rest. Once I have rested enough, we can continue our journey. However, this will delay the ti it takes for you, Great Elder, to seize the opportunity. I am truly sorry.”
Qi Tian waved his hand dismissively and said, “What of it? The opportunity is right there; it’s not as if it can grow legs and run away. Getting it sooner or later makes no difference—it’s only a matter of a day or two, not a year or two. I can wait.”
With no other options, Chen Huai could only step on his flying sword, lower its tip, and descend to the ground. Chen Huai and Qi Tian landed together.
Chen Huai found a spot, sat down, and began to ditate. Because he couldn’t escape, he only pretended to adjust himself briefly. After a few minutes, he stood up and said, “Great Elder, I feel much better. My stomach still hurts a bit, but it’s not hindering . We can continue our journey now.”
Qi Tian smiled and replied, “No worries. I am not in a hurry. We can wait until your stomach stops hurting completely before we resu our journey.”
Chen Huai hastily said, “Great Elder, I really am fine. We can proceed now.”
Qi Tian nodded, no longer pushing the issue. The three of them took to the skies again on their flying swords.
This ti, Qi Tian focused entirely on Chen Huai. They had now entered the area affected by the arrays set up by the Gold Core Realm cultivators. Whenever those cultivators decided to attack, and whenever Chen Huai tried to leave, the attack was sure to follow imdiately. Although Qi Tian was not afraid of these attacks, he wanted Chen Huai to fully experience the bitterness of being attacked and naturally could not let Chen Huai escape.
After flying forward about ten more miles, Qi Tian suddenly noticed Chen Huai, who had been quietly flying behind him, stealthily pulling a jade talisman from his Storage Bag. Before Chen Huai could activate it, Qi Tian reached back and grabbed it. The talisman, as if it had eyes, fell precisely into Qi Tian’s palm.
Chen Huai, shocked, exclaid, “Great Elder, why are you taking my things?”
Qi Tian laughed and said, “A Teleportation Talisman? Sir Chen, don’t you think you owe an explanation? Why have you taken out a Teleportation Talisman at this ti? What are you planning to do?”
Chen Huai reached towards Qi Tian and explained, “Isn’t it just a bit boring flying so dryly all the ti? I thought I would use this ti to study so talisman lore. Just by chance, I took out a Teleportation Talisman, and you noticed it, Great Elder. Please, give it back to quickly. It cost a great deal to get my hands on it.”
Though his words were casual, Chen Huai’s hand suddenly moved faster, lightning-fast, attempting to snatch the Teleportation Talisman back from Qi Tian’s hands.
How could Qi Tian give Chen Huai the chance? He dodged to the side and said, “Your explanation doesn’t convince . Think of another one.”
Chen Huai’s expression instantly turned fierce. They had already made an agreent in advance, and according to that agreent, those Gold Core Realm cultivators setting up the arrays had already begun activating them. The attack could co at any mont, and he definitely did not want to experience the taste of being struck by an array.
“Great Elder, give it to quickly, or I will turn hostile.”
“What? Turn hostile? You have quite the nerve to speak to this way! I, being generous, will not hold it against you. However, as a price for offending , I’ll make use of this Teleportation Talisman,” Qi Tian declared.
Qi Tian, while speaking, directly crushed the Teleportation Talisman, and instantly, a beam of light enveloped him, teleporting Qi Tian away.
Chen Huai never expected that even at this juncture, Qi Tian would escape, but that wasn’t even the worst part. Their pre-set ambush had already been triggered. He could even see twinkling lights in the sky swiftly flying towards him. At this point, if he didn’t run, he would only be struck.
Without another word, Chen Huai quickly took out another Teleportation Talisman. He felt imnsely grateful that he had been cautious enough to prepare an extra talisman in case of ergencies. Now was the ti to use it. He held the talisman in his hand, ready to crush it, and at the sa ti, he vowed to himself that once he caught up with Qi Tian, he would make him pay dearly for stealing his Teleportation Talisman.
But just then, Chen Huai suddenly felt a chill in his hand—the Teleportation Talisman he was holding seed to have been snatched away. His heart skipped a beat, and he cursed inwardly, “Thieves!” But imdiately, he wished he could slap himself. What was he thinking about thieves at a ti like this? He needed to focus on escaping for his life.
He didn’t bother to look where the Teleportation Talisman could have gone, nor did he care about the safety of Chen Xianyu. Without the talisman, he desperately urged his flying sword, trying to escape the range of the array’s attack with faster speed.
However, it was all too late. Before Chen Huai had gotten far, the glowing light in the sky had already arrived in the blink of an eye, completely enveloping both him and Chen Xianyu.
All Chen Huai could do was to activate the armor on his body and crush a pre-prepared Protection Talisman, hoping that this dual protection would help him survive the strike.
To this mont, he still had no clue who had stolen his Teleportation Talisman. Qi Tian had already teleported away, and Chen Xianyu was under his control; he couldn’t possibly have stolen the talisman. Could it be that he had stolen from himself?
After Qi Tian crushed the Teleportation Talisman, he was directly teleported away. When the teleportation ended, he found himself standing next to three or four Nascent Soul Practitioners. Before the light of the teleportation faded from him, soone laughed and said, “Bi, you have indeed accomplished a great feat this ti. Without you leading Qi Tian into our ambush, we could not have attacked him so easily. Sirs, don’t just stand there; it’s ti to clear the battlefield and kill Qi Tian.”
At that mont, Qi Tian revealed himself, smiling at the Nascent Soul Practitioners surrounding him, he said, “I’m sorry to disappoint you all.”
Seeing that their companion was not who teleported in, but Qi Tian, the Nascent Soul Practitioners were all greatly surprised. However, they had all experienced nurous upheavals and quickly gathered their wits. They imdiately started increasing the distance between them and Qi Tian, each revealing their combat weapons and armor, ready to attack Qi Tian from all sides.
Qi Tian snorted coldly, and imdiately two of the Nascent Soul Practitioners dropped their weapons to the ground, held their heads with both hands, collapsed to the ground, rolling around and screaming in pain.
This unexpected turn of events was completely beyond the other practitioners’ expectations; they hadn’t heard of any affliction striking their companions, so how could they suddenly turn out like this?
Qi Tian’s gaze then fell on the other two Nascent Soul Practitioners and he said, “I’ll give you a chance. Tell , why set an ambush against ? I don’t recall offending you.”
The remaining two practitioners, one in a red robe and the other in a green robe. The Master Red Robe didn’t want to have any communication with Qi Tian. He said, “If you want to know the answer, well, you can ask Yama after you die.”
With that, Master Red Robe charged towards Qi Tian. Knowing that Qi Tian’s strength was astonishing, having matched Nascent Soul Practitioners in combat three years ago and likely stronger now, only by engaging in close combat could they potentially restrict Qi Tian’s full combat capability and defeat him quickly.
The other, Green Robe Practitioner, was not idle either; he ford hand seals with spirit runes, preparing to cast a spell to restrict Qi Tian’s strength.
