Chapter 917: Ambush From the Back
Ye Xiwen remained silent and somewhat got an idea about why Yao Qian stopped here. She was probably waiting for the Bear Team.
Like what Yao Qian had said, she would get a team after arriving at the Chaos Demon Sea’s parameter. It should probably be this Bear Team. After all, only the size of this Bear Team would meet their requirements.
Chaos Demon Sea and Chaos Demon City were disorderly places with no rules governing them. There was only one simple truth – those having the bigger fist was the king. No City Lord was managing the order.
The city itself was formed through the congregation of many types of people. There was no strong ruler from the beginning. Even if there were, they would probably be the ones stirring up chaos rather than taking care of the problem.
Therefore, under the environment’s influence, most of the people here were like the demon clan. Cunning, cruel, and all kinds of negative words could be reflected in them.
Therefore, even if in a temporary team, betrayal would take place. In just an instant, the team would fall apart. Most of the time, the reason was the uneven distribution of the spoils.
Therefore, it was paramount to handpick a qualified teammate who would not betray casually. This Bear Team had cooperated with Yao Qian in the past. Their cooperation should be quite pleasant.
So this time, Yao Qian chose the Bear Team after entering Chaos Demon Sea again. The reason she waited here was to have the Bear Team discover her.
Thinking of this, Ye Xiwen understood the situation immediately.
For him, it didn’t matter who he worked with. It wouldn’t have much impact on him, but he naturally sought to cooperate with reliable teammates.
If the Bear Team was not bad, Ye Xiwen didn’t mind working with them to explore Chaos Demon Sea. After all, they were the local experts here. It was much more convenient and easier with them leading the way.
“What’s the deal? Sister Yao wants to have an adventure at Chaos Demon Sea again this time,” asked Xiong Zhicheng.
Yao Qian’s intention was evident since she returned to Chaos Demon City and appeared in their sight.
“En!” Yao Qian didn’t hide anything but just said with a faint smile. “We are going to have an adventure in the Chaos Demon Sea again. I wonder if Captain Xiong(bear) has the time.”
Hearing Yao Qian’s words, Xiong Zhicheng frowned slightly. He appeared troubled, “It will be the best if Sister Yao joins our Bear Team, but now most of our Bear Team members are all scattered, and all have their respective tasks. The only ones here at this time are the three of us!”
“If Sister Yao is not in a hurry, it’s best to wait another month or two. They shall return as soon as they can!” Xiong Zhicheng said, “At that time, we will have more confidence to enter the Chaos Demon Sea!”
One or two months was just a short time for a Transcendent Realm powerhouse with a lifespan of ten thousand years. Hence, waiting for a few months should be nothing at all.
“It’s fine to have only three for the team. With another three on our side, we will have the six-person team!” said Yao Qian directly. She could not afford any delay. The Vanishing Shadow Poisonous Crocodile Clan must have discovered that they left quietly. At this time, the opposing clan must have laid a trap and waited for them. They might be entering Chaos Demon City at any second.
In this case, the trio must leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, the enemies would catch up at any time.
Xiong Zhicheng noticed Yao Qian was in a hurry, “In that case, the three of us will accompany Sister Yao to Chaos Demon Sea!”
“Sister Yao came to Chaos Demon Sea this time to gain experience for the upcoming Top 100 Competition, right? During this period, many young experts are coming here because of this reason!” The ordinary-looking woman, Yu Sisi, said.
Yao Qian nodded and did not deny. Hearing Yao Qian’s words, the rest of the Bear Team understood the hurry.
“Since that’s the case, let’s not delay any further and enter Chaos Demon Sea quickly!” said Xiong Zhicheng. He noticed Yao Qian’s anxiety, so he didn’t speak much and concluded the conversation.
“It’s fine to go to Chaos Demon Sea, but Chaos Demon Sea is not a place that everyone can go to. If you are not strong enough, you will only die in the sea demons’ hands. It is better not to go!” He Yulong barged in abruptly. His target was Ye Xiwen.
Although he did not state it clearly, the person with insufficient strength was referring to Ye Xiwen.
Only Ye Xiwen seemed to have the lowest cultivation, merely Transcendent Realm Third level.
At this time, he put forward such a statement with only one purpose – to exclude Ye Xiwen.
It was not that Transcendent Realm Third Level couldn’t enter Chaos Demon Sea. As long as a warrior attained the Transcendent Realm, the warrior could enter Chaos Demon Sea. There were even some Half-step Transcendent Realm warriors having adventure here. Some elites among Great Sage warriors would roam in Chaos Demon Sea.
However, Chaos Demon Sea was also divided into many levels of danger. Warriors with different strengths would go to other places.
Due to this, there could be strength distinctions among the team members, but the gap would not be significant. Otherwise, they would not be able to go together. Once they entered a dangerous place, the weaker warrior might die. However, if the team went to an area with inconsiderable danger, it had no benefit to the stronger player, including the loot they could get.
Ye Xiwen seemed to be dragging the whole team back.
“What is wrong with you?” Before Ye Xiwen spoke, Bai Hanmo spoke immediately and asked directly.
“I have no other ill intention. If he is not strong enough, he will only slow down our team!” said He Yulong.
“Yulong doesn’t have any ill intention. His words are reasonable. If Ye Xiwen is not strong enough, I am afraid he will only drag the whole team down in the end!” Xiong Zhicheng said with a slight worry. He had the most credit as the Bear Team came a long way in the competitive Chaos Demon City. He had always been cautious, preferring to give up rather than doing uncertain things.
For the whole team, it was undoubtedly fatal to have a teammate dragging them down.
“If this is the case, then let’s not cooperate!” blurted Ye Xiwen. He did not even mention the reason. He had already felt the hostility of He Yulong to him. He held it in because he was Yao Qian’s friend. Since the other party was targeting him, Ye Xiwen couldn’t bear it anymore. “Anyway, no one is irreplaceable in this world. Do we have no one to cooperate with at Chaos Demon City?”
Ye Xiwen got up and turned around as soon as he finished speaking. He walked out and left these three people here without batting an eye.
The three of their expressions immediately turned ugly and gloomy. No matter what the situation was, being ignored was irritating.
“Arrogant, can you come and go as you please?” He Yulong felt humiliated. Ye Xiwen belittled him blatantly. His relationship with Yao Qian also enranged He Yulong on the spot.
He Yulong launched an attack instantly, throwing a punch at Ye Xiwen’s back. The fist trembled the air violently as it went straight to Ye Xiwen’s back.
He Yulong was a little proud since he had the strength at Transcendent Realm Sixth Level. At his age, he was outstanding among his peers.
“Shameless!” Bai Hanmo suddenly roared and was about to take action. Yao Qian, who was beside him, also frowned in anger. He Yulong made a move disregarding her. It made her furious.
Before Bai Hanmo reacts to the incoming punch to Ye Xiwen’s back, Ye Xiwen turned around and punched out. Between his five fingers, the golden Divine Light surged out instantly, forming a golden punch. It collided with the incoming punch immediately.
“Bang!” There was no hesitation in the two punches. The immense collision morphed into a massive energy ball. After a short pause, the energy ball began to sweep in all directions.
“Boom!” Above this restaurant, countless warriors were scared away. The tables and chairs were utterly crushed.
Fortunately, the entire building was not shattered. It appeared that because fights happened in Chaos Demon City every day, the buildings here were also exceptionally strong, far stronger than the outside world.
Ye Xiwen’s golden fist impact resembled a sharp blade, breaking away He Yulong’s fist momentum without any hindrance. It blasted directly on He Yulong’s body.
“Boom!” He Yulong spouted out blood. His figure resembled a kite with a broken string. He flew upside down and crashed directly into the wall.
“You! How dare you strike such a vicious blow!?” Yu Sisi was cold, standing in front of Ye Xiwen. She said, flustered and exasperated. Seeing her companion that was with her for a long time, she lost her rationality immediately.
“If it weren’t for Yao Qian’s sake, I would have beaten him to death with a single blow. He dares ambush me from the back. He is nothing in my eye.” Ye Xiwen sneered, but he didn’t lie. His punch was terrifying, especially after completing the Meteor Explosion technique. During the deduction, he also had a deeper understanding of Shattered Star Fist. The fist impact was much stronger than that in the past.
