Chapter 980: Chapter 980 Death
After slicing through the scorpion’s shell, one of the disciples had his sword taken away.
It went smoothly because Lingshuang was also using a Divine Weapon.
Yuan Datou’s metal rod punched a massive hole in the scorpion. It was similarly helpful.
The most important thing for Ye Liuyun was to focus on the two of them. The others were beyond his ability to help. He couldn’t possibly protect every disciple.
"Ah!"
The disciple screamed and was attacked from the back by a scorpion tail, piercing through his chest.
In an apparent display of triumph, Red Scorpion seized him up and waved him around. Then, it put that disciple into his mouth, biting and swallowing him. frёeωebɳovel.com
"Lei Ming, Dragon Lady, Let’s fight!"
When Ye Liuyun saw that someone had died, he realized what a catastrophe it would be for everyone to be surrounded by so many scorpions.
As a result, he freed Lei Ming and the Dragon Lady and called for their assistance. He wanted them to practice their skills.
Ye Liuyun didn’t use the Honorable Level Ice-devil Tiger and Ghost Butterfly for the moment.
Their cultivation realms were too high. They would not have to face any tests if they were released.
When Lei Ming appeared, it reverted to its original form and attacked the scorpions with special lightning bolts and claws. It was extremely effective.
Dragon Lady also revealed her true form and hovered in the air. She seized the opportunity to use her claws. She had a pair of Divine Weapon gloves, so it was easy for her to grasp it.
Those scorpions fought for quite some time. Perhaps they discovered that they had suffered heavy losses and began to retreat.
Ye Liuyun, Lei Ming, and the Dragon Lady chased after them for a while. However, they didn’t force it anymore and allowed them to leave.
When they fought Red Scorpion for the first time, Ye Liuyun gained quite a bit. He had obtained more than twenty Red Scorpion corpses.
However, their numbers were reduced by two people. Red Scorpion ambushed two disciples and killed them.
Two people died less than a day after they arrived. At this time, everyone was feeling devastated. They silently collected the spoils of war to recover from their injuries.
They continued to struggle in the days that followed. A swarm of scorpions and deadly bugs surrounded them, treating them as nourishment.
One or two of them would die in every battle and become food for the poison.
"These d*mn worms!"
No one on the team was optimistic about their chances of survival, and some of them kept cursing.
After seeing this, Ye Liuyun shook his head helplessly, "The psychological state of these people is too fragile! They panicked in the face of danger! They appear to require additional training.
He had originally planned to release the Honorable Level feral beast, but he held himself back.
The release of Honorable Level feral beasts could save these people’s lives. However, it also cost them the opportunity to grow.
Li Qingyun was relieved to see Ye Liuyun’s hand reaching for the Interspatial Ring in the distance. He grinned as well.
"That’s correct! Never stunt the development of those around you!"
Although he spoke in a soft voice, Ye Liuyun’s Divine Sense could clearly capture his voice.
He looked at Li Qingyun and nodded.
Then he proceeded to encourage everyone by saying, "The path of martial practitioner will eventually lead to life and death! If you experience challenges and merely whine or give up, your Martial Arts Dao is too weak!"
"Ye Liuyun, it’s easy for you to say. You’re strong, and there are Honorable Level feral beasts protecting your life. Of course, you’re not afraid!"
Some disciples began to refute him.
The disciple who spoke had already proposed that Ye Liuyun release an Honourable Level feral beast to protect everyone, but Ye Liuyun rejected him. As a result, he was deeply disappointed with Ye Liuyun. He assumed that Ye Liuyun would not save them.
"What are you talking about? Isn’t he also with us, trying his best to kill enemies? Without him, more of us would have died!" Lingshuang argued with the disciple.
The other disciples begged Ye Liuyun instead of complaining about him.
"Mr. Ye, release your feral beast, or we’ll all die!"
"That’s right! Mr. Ye, you still have those Yin-soul! As long as you release some of them, we will be safe!"
When Ye Liuyun heard this, he waved his hand and interrupted their voices.
"We’re all fresh converts. I don’t need to be in charge of your life. Don’t follow me if you think I don’t care about your life or death!
"However, I must remind you that this is my trial, as well as yours. If you don’t want to continue, simply return!"
After that, Ye Liuyun turned around and left.
Initially, he felt guilty about the deaths of those people. However, he made up his mind entirely after hearing what these people had to say.
Honorable Level feral beasts would only be used when he was in danger.
He no longer cared about these people’s lives or deaths. Furthermore, he wouldn’t be morally coerced by them.
Lingshuang and Yuan Datou immediately caught up with Ye Liuyun.
"You don’t even know what’s good for you!" Yuan Datou scolded dismissively as he was about to go.
Only one of the disciples immediately got up and followed Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun’s Divine Sense also discovered this disciple.
This disciple had already noticed it. He’d never grumbled about it, and he wasn’t depressed about it.
Although he was only at the first level of the Fate Realm, he was still able to help others as much as he could in battle.
"Hey, what’s your name?" Yuan Datou noticed the disciple and asked directly.
"My name is Liu Yiming!" The disciple cupped his fists at Yuan Datou.
"Yuan Datou!" Yuan Datou grinned and introduced himself.
The five disciples who remained in the same location looked at each other and instantly pursued him.
If they left Ye Liuyun, they might die even faster.
Ye Liuyun ignored them and allowed them to follow him.
At this moment, he was observing the situation in the distance with Golden Phantom Eyes.
He found a series of footprints!
When they arrived at the footprint spot, the footprints had been buried by the sand.
"What’s wrong?" Lingshuang could tell that Ye Liuyun seemed to be tracking something.
"There seems to be a group of people in front of us!" Ye Liuyun said suspiciously.
"No wonder we weren’t attacked!" Yuan Datou remarked.
They had only been gone for a brief time, yet they hadn’t encountered the poison’s attack. It was indeed unusual.
"Let’s catch up with them quickly. With so many people, we can deal with these poisonous creatures!" A disciple behind him immediately suggested.
"Not necessarily!" Ye Liuyun reflected, "These people’s cultivation realms are probably higher than ours! Furthermore, meeting them in such a location might not be a good idea! Let’s go after them first and see what the situation is."
But he still decided to catch up with these people to see what was going on.
