Chapter 52 Sect Grand Competition (27)
"Senior Sister Nie!"
Nie Xushuang never expected to meet Chu Yeli here.
"Chu Yeli, are you alone?"
Nie Xushuang frowned, sensing that something was off about the person in front of her. She instinctively shielded Qiao An behind her: "Weren't the others with you?"
Chu Yeli smiled and said, "I haven't met anyone else since I entered the secret realm. It's so rare to meet you all. Shall we go together?"
Nie Xushuang smiled, her eyes fixed on the person in front of her, trying to find a flaw: "Didn't Luo Zaisui send you a telepathic message?"
"What kind of telepathic communication?"
Chu Yeli tilted his head, stepped forward, and tried to get closer to Nie Xushuang.
Nie Xushuang showed no mercy, and as he approached, she thrust her sword at him.
"Tsk." Chu Yeli transformed into a black shadow and landed not far away in the blink of an eye. "Why are they all so smart? It'll be such a hassle to catch them."
He stretched his neck, black mist swirling around him, and Chu Yeli's appearance became blurry in the blink of an eye. The man was dressed in a black robe, his face covered with a black iron mask, and he held a long whip. His cultivation at the late Nascent Soul stage made Nie Xushuang feel a little breathless.
She whispered to Qiao An, "Qiao An, before he puts any pressure on you, run away and find your Senior Sister Luo and the others. Remember, if you can't tell whether they are friend or foe, just run."
It was Qiao An's first time seeing a demon, and she was somewhat flustered. Her voice trembled as she asked, "But... Senior Sister... what about you?"
"Don't worry about me, I can handle this, run!"
Nie Xushuang slapped Luo Zaishui's communication talisman into Qiao An's arms and pushed her away abruptly.
Qiao An was stunned for a moment, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then turned and ran. She would definitely hold her senior sister back if she stayed here.
"Trying to run? With your abilities?"
Nie Xushuang drew her sword and blocked the demonic cultivator's path: "What kind of person bullies a junior if they won't fight me?"
Behind her, she heard the sound of her senior sister's sword and whip cutting through the air. Qiao An forced back her tears and charged forward with all her might. She had to go and get reinforcements.
The same thing happened to the other disciples, and a hunting competition suddenly began.
"Who exactly are you? Let me tell you, I am the young master of the Wen family. If you hurt me, the Wen family will not let you get away with it!"
"Behave yourself!"
The man kicked Wen Lian in the stomach, causing Wen Lian to writhe on the ground in pain.
When Nie Xushuang woke up, she found that her hands and feet were tied up, and Chu Yeli and others were sitting next to her.
"Why are you all..."
Chu Yeli turned his face away: "It was just carelessness."
Nie Xushuang tried to break free of the ropes binding her hands and feet.
"Don't bother, we can't break free from these ropes. Even if we did, there's still a formation trapping us here." Chu Yeli leaned against the side resignedly, a faint smell of blood emanating from her body.
Nie Xushuang frowned subconsciously: "Are you injured?"
Chu Yeli didn't seem to care: "Weren't you injured too? There's someone over there who's even more seriously injured and hasn't woken up yet."
Nie Xushuang followed Chu Yeli's gaze and saw that Ye Xiao was covered in blood, and Su Wusi also had wounds of various sizes on his body. She and several members of the Wanjian Sect were working together to wipe his wounds in an attempt to stop the bleeding.
She instinctively reached for her waist and discovered that her storage bag was gone.
"This can't go on, he'll die."
Chu Yeli sighed softly: "Now we can only hope that Luo Zaishui and the others can bring rescue."
“How can we take this? Our master and the others don’t know our situation inside, and we can’t get out now that we’ve lost our tokens.”
Nie Xushuang's tone was tinged with panic; she knew very well that Ye Xiao couldn't hold on like this for long.
Chu Yeli seemed to have thought of something: "I have a hemostatic pill hidden in my sleeve, please take it out for me quickly."
With his hands tied behind his back, he couldn't take out the pills by himself, so he simply turned around and let Nie Xushuang take out the box of pills back to back with him.
Having obtained the pill, Nie Xushuang didn't dare to dawdle. Taking advantage of the demons' inattention, she directly approached Ye Xiao.
Su Wusi softly called out to Senior Sister Nie, and Nie Xushuang's eyes reddened as she looked at her.
She quickly placed the hemostatic pill in her hand and comforted her, "Quick, feed it to him."
"Hey you over there, what are you whispering about? Behave yourself!"
A demon noticed their movements and walked over. Nie Xushuang took a few steps forward and stood in front of Su Wusi.
Without much hesitation, Su Wusi directly stuffed the pill into Ye Xiao's mouth.
What are you guys doing?
Nie Xushuang forced herself to calm down and stared directly at the demonic cultivator.
"He's dying."
"So what?"
Suppressing her fear, Nie Xushuang said quickly, "You captured us but didn't kill us directly because you wanted to make a deal with the sects and families, right? Now that we're about to die, do you think your deal can still be done?"
The man seemed dismissive: "So what if a close disciple died?"
“He’s not just any ordinary disciple; he’s the chief disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and the second young master of the Ye family. If something happens to him, do you think you can still negotiate with the sects and aristocratic families?”
This was Su Wusi's voice. Nie Xushuang was somewhat surprised. She hadn't expected that even in this state, this little girl still had the courage to negotiate with the enemy. No wonder she valued this junior sister so much in the water.
Nie Xushuang took a deep breath: "Give me back my storage bag. I can save him. Otherwise, if your negotiations fail, you won't be able to explain yourselves."
Su Wusi and Nie Xushuang were both gambling; they were both betting on their value to the Demon Clan.
Another female demon, upon hearing her words, walked up to their storage bags and asked, "Which one is yours?"
Nie Xushuang breathed a sigh of relief: "The blue one with cloud patterns."
Her storage bag was kicked in.
"Untie me, or how will I save people?" Nie Xushuang naturally placed her hand in front of the demon. "Don't worry, I can't escape."
Although the demon didn't want to untie her, seeing the look in the female demon's eyes, he had no choice but to obediently untie her. Afterwards, he could only snarl, "Behave yourself!"
"Useless bastards, they couldn't even catch those few people!"
The female demon kicked the demon who was reporting to her.
The demon could only obediently kneel on one knee: "It was my fault for incompetence. Those disciples were simply too cunning, I..."
"waste!"
He kicked the man to the ground again.
The female demon strode into the center of the formation: "Tell me, where are the others!"
"No...don't know..."
The female demon lashed out with her whip, tearing the man's skin and flesh apart.
Chu Yeli's eyelids twitched. This lash would take at least half a month to heal.
