Chapter 475
After Huangfu Xuan and Hu Tian chose their boxes, Chen Lifeng started to walk to the table.
Suddenly, Xiao Jinting attacked Liu Ying, who fell to the side.
Huangfu Xuan said, “Mr. Xiao, how could you do this?” He attacked Xiao Jinting with his sword, but the latter warded off.
When his attack failed, Huangfu Xuan looked at Xiao Jinting suspiciously.
Liu Ying extended her hand and activated an array. Chen Lifeng quickly stepped back. A trapping array appeared in the place where the last box was placed.
Chen Lifeng had received a message from Xiao Jinting that there was a trap near the table. It would be difficult to get out of it if he fell for it, so he paid extra attention when he approached the table.
Liu Ying felt disappointed when she saw Chen Lifeng stay away from the trap.
Chen Lifeng’s face darkened. When Huangfu Xuan and Hu Tian went to take the boxes, nothing had happened. When he went to get the box, Liu Ying made a move. He realized that the three of them had ganged up.
He looked at them in anger. “Mr. Huangfu, what do you mean?”
Huangfu Xuan said apologetically, “There are only three boxes, but Ms. Liu wants to have one of them, so we have to sacrifice you.”
Liu Ying took the array disc and activated the arrays in the room. Chen Lifeng felt that he got trapped by an invisible power.
Xiao Jinting waved his fist and broke eight pillars in the room.
Liu Ying who was activating the arrays abruptly spat out a mouth of blood. She said with widened eyes, “Do you know about arrays?”
Xiao Jinting said lightly, “Yes, a little bit.”
There were arrays everywhere in the room. The array near the table was the most complicated. If Chen Lifeng got trapped by it, Xiao Jinting would not be able to save him. As for the other arrays, they didn’t function after he broke the key points.
Huangfu Xuan said resentfully, “Hu Tian, you go for Chen Lifeng. I’ll come to help you after I kill Xiao Jinting.”
Xiao Jinting gave a cold smile, amused.
Huangfu Xuan tossed out a seal, which was carved with a golden dragon.
The seal turned bigger and charged at Xiao Jinting, who felt eighteen dragons were charging at him.
The dragon seal imprisoned the souls of eighteen dragons, which were killed alive. Therefore, they were aggressive.
Xiao Jinting punch at the seal, and it flew away. “Kill me? Mr. Huangfu, you are dreaming.”
When Huangfu Xuan saw the seal he was proud of was sent flying away, he felt shocked. “You are not a preliminary Nascent Soul.”
Xiao Jinting smiled and said, “Of course, I’m not.”
He released his power, now everyone knew that he was an advanced Nascent Soul.
Sensing the overwhelming power, Huangfu Xuan couldn’t help cursing, “Chen Lifeng, you are a bastard.”
Xiao Jinting smiled wryly, thinking, “You’ve got Chen Lifeng wrong. He doesn’t know that I’ve reached the advanced level of Nascent Soul.”
Xiao Jinting waved his hand, and several swords flew out. “Kill him.”
A golden light pierced through Huangfu Xuan’s body, and a big hole appeared on his belly. A small soul flew out with resentment on its face.
The soul tried to fly away, but it got blocked by the arrays in the room.
Xiao Jinting said, “Go.” A scorpion flew out of his sleeve and swallowed up Huangfu Xuan’s soul.
Liu Ying watched this in terror. Huangfu Xuan’s soul would have been able to escape. However, when she entered the cave, she sealed the place with arrays. She had planned to stop Chen Lifeng from running away, but she ruined the chance for Huangfu Xuan to run away.
Xiao Jinting attacked Hu Tian, who stepped back.
Hu Tian said, “Mr. Chen, it’s a misunderstanding. Huangfu Xuan asked me to do this. Please stop Mr. Xiao.”
Ignoring Hu Tian, Xiao Jinting stabbed him with the swords and killed his soul like what he had done with Huangfu Xuan.
…
Liu Ying turned pale in terror. Xiao Jinting asked, “Ms. Liu, are you okay?”
She stepped back in horror, saying, “You are a devil.”
Huangfu Xuan and Hu Tian were advanced Nascent Souls, and they got killed by Xiao Jinting. Her hope of surviving vanished.
Looking at the two corpses on the ground, Chen Lifeng let out a sigh of relief. Thankfully, he had asked Xiao Jinting to come. Otherwise, he didn’t dare to imagine what would happen.
Chen Lifeng said sulkily, “Ms. Liu, I’m not your enemy. Why do you scheme against me?”
Liu Ying recovered from her shock and calmed down. “We were so close. Mr. Chen, you did a good job. You asked an advanced Nascent Soul to pretend to be on the preliminary level. We were unlucky.”
Chen Lifeng blushed. He didn’t know that Xiao Jinting had reached the advanced level. He invited him because he didn’t want to share the precious resources with an outsider.
Xiao Jinting looked at Liu Ying and said leisurely, “Did you make Senior Chen find the map?”
Liu Ying looked at him in surprise. “How do you know?”
Xiao Jinting said lightly, “I feel that your bloodlines are close. I guess you are all from the royal family. It took four Nascent Souls to break the major array. You planned to invite a Nascent Soul and kill him after you get the treasures.”
Chen Lifeng had just reached the advanced level of Nascent Soul, and he was much inferior to Huangfu Xuan and Hu Tian in strength because he was a free-lance cultivator and had less wealth.
