The mountaintop cave.
When the楼主 arrived at the cave entrance, the surroundings were already in disarray. The sentries left behind had all been killed.
Seeing this, he was too preoccupied to be angry and hurried towards the cave entrance.
But before he could reach the entrance, an angry voice was heard.
"Damn old man, I was just about to kill Ye Cangtian, why did you come out and get in the way!"
"Now that Ye Cangtian has escaped, I'll repay you with your life..."
Listening to the voice, the楼主 quietly peeked his head out and immediately saw two figures. One was wearing a mask, and the other was He Elder, whom he also knew well and had been imprisoned on this mountain for several years. His pupils were filled with rage, this was Po Xiao.
"Boy, I've just escaped captivity today, and I don't have time to fight with you. I'll come back to challenge you another day. Goodbye!"
Another voice came, and He Elder's figure charged towards the cliff face.
"Don't let him escape!"
Seeing this, the楼主 immediately shouted and rushed out.
However, he was still a step too late, and He Elder had already leaped off the cliff face.
"Why did you let him escape!"
The楼主 rushed to Po Xiao and questioned him angrily.
Ye Cangtian glanced at him and snorted, "That's a cliff face over there. He'll die if he falls. Why should I stop him?"
"Besides, by the time you shouted, it was already too late for me to make a move!"
"It's true that it's a cliff face, but the sea is below."
"Think with your head, if he could really die from falling, why would he jump down on his own!"
Hearing Ye Cangtian's words, the楼主 roared again. He wished he could slap Po Xiao to death.
After all, he was a Di-level expert, was he that easy to kill by falling?
He truly regretted it now!
He hadn't expected that He Elder would escape by jumping off the cliff after he was only half a step late. This was not good news for him!
If He Elder caused trouble after returning, his position as楼主 would be unstable, as He Elder had considerable prestige in the Tingfeng Tower...
"楼主, I hope you watch your words. I came here to help you kill Ye Cangtian, not to watch that old man for you!"
"If you speak to me disrespectfully again, don't blame me for being rude!"
Ye Cangtian's expression also turned cold. He had already raised his golden great ring saber, pointing it directly at the楼主's nose.
Although everything before was planned by him and He Elder, the楼主 shouting at him like this still stirred up his anger.
"You, you..."
"Do you know what he means to the Tingfeng Tower!"
With a single sentence, the楼主 trembled with anger and questioned him indignantly.
"What does it mean, what does it have to do with me?"
"Don't you understand what I'm saying? I said I'm only responsible for dealing with Ye Cangtian, and I won't get involved in anything else!"
"Besides, if your Tingfeng Tower couldn't keep him in check, are you going to blame me?"
Ye Cangtian glanced over and said coldly.
On the surface, his expression was stern, but in his heart, he was overjoyed. Although all of this was within the plan, it was by exploiting the楼主's psychology.
If the楼主 wasn't so worried about He Elder's accident, he wouldn't have unlinked the great formation and He Elder, and He Elder wouldn't have escaped.
Therefore, this was all thanks to the other party's cooperation!
...
After a long time!
The楼主 suppressed his anger and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I was too anxious just now, and my attitude was a bit bad. Please forgive me!"
Now that Po Xiao had helped deal with Ye Cangtian, it meant that Po Xiao would no longer serve the Tingfeng Tower and Guangming Hall.
In that case, according to the plan, the second step, the plan to eliminate Po Xiao and Ye Cangtian, would be implemented.
But now that Ye Cangtian was not present, they could only deal with Po Xiao first.
He believed that after the previous battle with Ye Cangtian, Po Xiao must also be greatly depleted.
Therefore, to increase the certainty of killing Po Xiao, the楼主 chose to back down for now, stabilize Po Xiao, and then deal with him when more people arrived.
"It's fine, just pay attention to your attitude next time."
"Let's get back to business. This time I made a move, it also concludes our cooperation. From now on, we'll go our separate ways!"
Ye Cangtian sneered and turned to leave first.
The mountaintop was not a good place to stay for long.
The reason was simple: he and Gui Wu had left too many traces of their fight. He believed that it wouldn't be long before people from the Tingfeng Tower and Felaifu arrived.
If the other party had ulterior motives then, it would be difficult for him to deal with them.
Therefore, it was better to lure them away and control them within a certain number, so that they could be defeated one by one.
"Wait for me, let's go down the mountain together!"
Seeing the other party's receding back, the楼主 quickly followed.
It was already late at night. If the other party left his sight, it would be very difficult to catch him.
Therefore, the楼主 had to leave with Po Xiao so that he could accurately track Po Xiao's location and leave a signal for reinforcements to arrive.
Ye Cangtian didn't say much about the楼主 following him, but a strange smile appeared on his face.
Just this one action made him understand the ulterior motives of the楼主 and Felaifu.
Needless to say, these two guys must have had killing intent towards him.
Otherwise, after their cooperation, there would be no need for the other party to follow him.
Thinking this, Ye Cangtian deliberately led the other party down another path, completely different from the way up the mountain, to avoid being surrounded and intercepted by the disciples of the Tingfeng Tower.
...
"Hoo hoo..."
Just a few minutes after the two left, five elders and Felaifu arrived at the mountaintop, panting.
The楼主's strength was too great. Under his explosive speed, even though they tried their best, they were still left far behind.
Looking at the messy scene, Felaifu's eyes were filled with immense anger.
He didn't know what had happened here, but his intuition told him that Ye Cangtian and Po Xiao were definitely safe at the moment.
This was because there was no blood at the places with intense fighting traces around, which meant that Ye Cangtian and Po Xiao should not have been seriously injured.
"Damn it, can someone tell me what happened!"
Felaifu roared in anger. The five elders remained silent, as they didn't know what had happened either!
Seeing this, Felaifu's anger intensified, and he said angrily, "What are you five standing here for! Go and search! It's such a small place, can they fly away!"
The five heard this, exchanged glances, and then immediately dispersed to search for clues.
In their eyes, Felaifu was like a mad dog at the moment, biting anyone he saw, so it was best to stay far away and do more and talk less.
After an unknown amount of time.
The Fourth Elder's figure was the first to return to Felaifu's side.
"Lord Felaifu, there's a signal left by the楼主 here!"
Hearing this, Felaifu's eyes lit up. It seemed that this old guy wasn't completely useless.
Thinking this, he quickly said, "Send a rear guard to notify the other elders to follow us."
The Fourth Elder quickly responded and then took Felaifu to the location of the signal, tracing it all the way.
The more they traced, the more displeased Felaifu became.
From the discovery of the signal until now, he had not found any traces of fighting along the way. Then, what was the楼主 leaving the signal for?
As time passed, Felaifu and the Fourth Elder finally saw figures, which were the楼主 and Po Xiao.
