"He has been hiding his strength from the beginning. He deliberately showed us weakness and made us careless. We were all deceived by him!" Ge Han scolded angrily.
Hearing this, Gou Su and Hong Teng's expressions changed. They looked at Qin Shi with dull eyes and said, "How could this be?"
The three of them were the best in their respective empires. Now that they had used the Forbidden Technique, they were still not as good as this young boy. How could the three of them accept this?
But this was the truth. The two of them also understood what Ge Han said. If they continued to delay, the three of them would not only be seriously injured, but also their lives.
"Let's retreat first. We made a mistake in our calculation. This boy is too powerful. The three of us can't kill him today. We can only think about it in the long run," Hong Teng said bitterly.
Ge Han nodded and said, "Hong Teng is right. We can't delay any longer. You have angered him just now. If we delay any longer, we won't even have a chance to leave."
"So, are we just going to let him go?"
Gou Su clenched his fists unwillingly. Of course, he was more afraid than unwilling. The Mountain Gaze Empire did not have a strong foundation like the Sacred Wind Empire. Now that he had provoked Chi Yan, the two sides had reached a point where they would not rest until one of them died. With the reputation of the Qin Sect Master in the outside world, he would definitely not let them go. At that time, the Mountain Gaze was likely to suffer a devastating blow. After all, the bloody example of the Beast King Empire was right in front of them.
"Otherwise, should we stay and die?"
Ge Han glanced at him and immediately saw Gou Su's worry. He said, "You don't have to worry. Now our three empires are on the same boat. If Chi Yan really attacks the Mountain Gaze, the Sacred Wind Empire will not sit idly by. Moreover …"
Speaking of this, Ge Han's eyes suddenly became cold.
"Since the plan on that side has been successfully completed, let's go first. It won't be long before this boy takes the initiative to find us. At that time, it will be our home ground. We must make this boy pay with his blood!"
Hearing this, Gou Su was silent for a long time. Then, he nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, we can only do this. I hope the Mountain Gaze can survive this disaster."
"Once we get through this, the Hundred Tide Zone will belong to our three empires."
Ge Han patted Gou Su's shoulder. Immediately, he raised his head and said to Qin Shi, "Stinking brat, we admit defeat today. However, don't be anxious. We will meet again very soon. When that time comes, it will be the time of your death!"
"You want to leave?" Qin Shi frowned, his black eyes filled with killing intent. "That won't do."
"If the three of us want to leave, you won't be able to stop us!"
Ge Han said coldly. He then took a step forward and said to the two people behind him: "Both of you, help me, get into formation!"
"Yes!"
The two of them attacked from the left and right respectively. The blood imprints on the foreheads of the three of them flickered, forming a gigantic Blood Demon Formation in the sky. After that, the three of them were enveloped by baleful auras and fled into the distance.
Seeing this, Qin Shi narrowed his eyes and stomped his foot. With the help of a bolt of lightning, he pierced through the sky and shrouded the three of them with one hand.
However, at this moment, the baleful auras surrounding the three of them suddenly exploded. A gigantic demon hand that was thousands of feet long reached out and collided with Qin Shi.
Rumble!
That demonic hand was extremely strange. The blood vessels on its surface bulged like a viper, and its power was comparable to the peak of the heavens. The space between Qin Shi's thumb and index finger trembled violently, and his chest felt quite a bit of pressure. He suddenly retreated several thousand meters.
"Heaven Hou Ferocious Demon?" Qin Shi said in surprise.
"Brat, I told you, you can't kill the three of us." Ge Han laughed wildly, and the three of them disappeared into the darkness just like that.
Seeing that the three of them had escaped without being able to do anything, Qin Shi's face turned ashen.
"Brat, there's no other way. The three of them are surrounded by a protective barrier set up by a Heaven Hou Realm ferocious demon. You've already done your best to force them to retreat. If you force them to stay, the ferocious demon will definitely appear. When that happens, I'm afraid that you, Scarlet Flame, will suffer great losses."
"Phew …!"
Qin Shi let out a long sigh. He understood the Blood Shaman's words, but he was unwilling to give up. In the end, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'll let those three old dogs go this time. Since the Bi Group has already made a move against me, I think they'll make another move soon."
"Indeed, they won't give up until they get the Benevolent Jade."
"A few years ago, I was just a dispensable chess piece in their eyes. Small????
Qiao Zhong Ye?
Ge Si Bu Rong Lao Yi Temple??
Di?
Di?
Cang Hai Niu?
Yi Nao Chong Yun Ya?
Gamma Waving Evil Chasing Stun?
Marsh Mi Xue Yue?
Qiang Sha?
Meng Sha!
At the thought of this, Qin Shi's indifferent and calm eyes suddenly flashed with excitement. The Blood Shaman was stunned and shook his head. "What a lunatic!"
"Bi Group … we'll settle our grudges slowly!"
Qin Shi took a deep breath. At this moment, he frowned. Suddenly, he heard the sound of something tearing through the air behind him, and he turned around.
"Shi Tou!"
"Sect Master!"
Lin Yu, Hua Ling, Ling Xiao, and the rest rushed over from the east and west. Seeing that Qin Shi was safe, Lin Yu heaved a sigh of relief. "How are you?"
Qin Shi shook his head. "I'm fine. Why are you all here?
Have the east and west been dealt with? "
"Yes, we've all been tricked. I just arrived in the west, and that old dog Hong Teng rushed over to the south. Their target wasn't Scarlet Flame at all. They purposely separated us and then attacked you."
"It's the same for the east," Hua Ling said.
Qin Shi was not surprised by this. He calmly smiled and said, "I know."
"You know?"
Lin Yu was stunned. He then raised his head and looked at the thousand-meter-deep crater outside the border. "Heh, it's so tragic. Where are those three old dogs?"
"I beat them away."
"What?"
Hearing this, everyone was shocked. Lin Yu and the others who had fought with Hong Teng and Gou Su sucked in a breath of cold air. It must be known that they had encountered quite a lot of obstacles in the eastern and western regions. Gou Su and Hong Teng were extremely powerful, even Hua Ling had almost lost. However, these two powerful people were actually defeated by Qin Shi just like that?
Most importantly, apart from these two, there was also Ge Han. He was a heaven-defying cultivator who had reached the Eight Heavens Realm.
"Gulp … what a monster!"
Lin Yu sighed and shook his head. Then, he thought for a while and said, "But I don't understand. You've only returned to Scarlet Flame for less than half a day. How did they get the news?"
"Also, looking at the way they attacked today, it was obvious that they were targeting you. They wanted to lure you to the south and kill you."
Hearing this, many people realized, "That's right. Although the three empires have invaded Scarlet Flame this year, this is the first time something like this has happened."
But Qin Shi suddenly clenched his fists.
"They're not targeting me. It's someone else."
"Someone else?" Lin Yu frowned.
Qin Shi nodded. "Yes, they're all pawns being used. They're not the ones who truly understand me."
Hearing this, Lin Yu asked in surprise, "Then who is it?
Is there such a powerful person? "
Qin Shi hesitated and didn't know how to respond. But before he could speak, Ling Xiao and the others suddenly understood. They raised their heads and said to Qin Shi, "Sect leader, could it be that force?"
Qin Shi nodded helplessly. Ling Xiao and the others had participated in the battle between Qin Sect and Burning Sky Sect. They had all seen how strong Zhen Yuan was. It was naturally difficult for him to hide it.
But to Lin Yu, he didn't want to say it. After all, Qin Sect was his own force, but Scarlet Flame wasn't. Moreover, there were countless commoners in Scarlet Flame. They were all innocent. He didn't want Scarlet Flame to be involved in this fateful battle.
But he was thinking too much. Before he could say anything, Lin Yu suddenly walked forward. That once childish face was now extremely resolute. After a year of tempering, it was filled with the domineering aura of a monarch. He said to Qin Shi seriously, "Shi Tou, I know what you're thinking. It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it now, but you must remember what I, Lin Yu, said. We are brothers. In the past three years, I wasn't able to create a miracle with you, and that is my life's regret. But in the future, your life won't be lacking me. Right now, your life isn't considered bitter, and everything is developing in a good direction. Therefore, I can also be at ease as the monarch of the empire. But you must remember, if you really meet with difficulties, even if I have to give up the throne, I will still stand shoulder to shoulder with you. I will accompany you through your most bitter days. That is what brothers are."
"Little Yu …!"
Qin Shi was startled. His originally stern gaze suddenly became much gentler. In the end, he still smiled and nodded. "I know, we will always be brothers."
"Mm!"
Lin Yu nodded. Then, he looked towards the Sacred Wind Empire's army in the distance and laughed. "Hmph, I'm afraid that no matter how those three old dogs calculate, they would never have expected that even if the three of them joined forces, they would still be no match for you. After this, they should be much more fearful. It's a pity that they escaped. Otherwise, the three empires of the Sacred Wind Empire would definitely be heavily injured."
Qin Shi nodded. Telling the three of them to escape was also a knot in his heart. But at this moment, he suddenly frowned. He suddenly felt that something was wrong.
"Little guy, what's wrong?"
The Blood Shaman and the Pregnant Tree's cultivation were extremely strong. They immediately felt the undulations from Qin Shi and couldn't help but ask.
