After listening to Deng Xian's narration, Yang Qi couldn't help but nodded. He already understood Deng Xian's intention of reminding him that the devil's actions could not be judged by common sense.
“Brother Yang, there is no need to worry too much. Although the strong men in Wanjie Valley are quite powerful, Wanjie Valley is quite far away from the star field where Emperor Wu Shi is located. The other party may not take action.” Deng Xian spoke again.
The star regions where the two sides were located were far apart. Even if the experts from the Wanjie Valley wanted to attack Yang Qi, it would take many years. By that time, Yang Qi might have already entered the Martial Emperor realm and was practicing somewhere. Even if the experts from the Wanjie Valley wanted to find Yang Qi, it would not be easy.
Yang Qi nodded, but he didn't really care. After all, if the strong men from Wanjie Valley really wanted to attack him, with his strength, he wouldn't even have a chance to escape, so there was no point in worrying.
Yang Qi looked towards the cave not far away, and said solemnly, "Another incident has occurred in this cave, but I don't know what happened in the cave?"
The reason why Lu Peng was able to escape was because the cave suddenly changed again. Unlike the beginning, the previous change only lasted for a moment, and the power erupting from the cave did not change much.
As Yang Qi finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to the location of the cave. After all, they appeared here because of the changes in the cave.
…
While Yang Qi and his companions were paying attention to the cave, Lu Peng had already escaped back to the area where they could not engage in fighting. After returning to the safe zone, he was completely relieved.
“They’re all dead!”
Lu Peng tried to contact his companions, but found that none of them could be contacted. It was obvious that several other practitioners had already died.
"Leave or stay?"
Lu Peng's eyes focused and he began to think rapidly in his mind.
Although he had threatened to take revenge before, Lu Peng knew that with his strength, he was no match for Yang Qi. Even if he had broken through to the Martial Emperor Realm, he was still no match for Yang Qi in the Ancient Forbidden Land and could only hide in a safe area. As for taking revenge after leaving the Ancient Forbidden Land, it was also impossible. Outside the Ancient Forbidden Land was the Wilderness Territory, which was originally the hometown of the Great Emperor Wu Shi and was close to the sphere of influence of the Grand Void Saint Lord. How could he take revenge when his strength was not as good as Yang Qi's
A helpless look flashed across Lu Peng's face, and he muttered to himself, "Should we retreat?"
He was absolutely safe in the safe area of the Ancient Saint Sect ruins, but if he continued to stay here, he could not guarantee that he would not meet Yang Qi again. Even if Yang Qi trapped him, he would not even have the chance to leave the Ancient Saint Sect ruins. Once he left, he would only die.
The best way seems to be to wait for some time, then secretly leave the ruins of the Ancient Holy Sect, and then seek revenge on Yang Qi when you have enough strength in the future. This is the safest approach.
However, as one of the top practitioners of the same generation as those in the Martial Emperor Realm in Wanjie Valley, Lu Peng was unwilling to accept this. All his companions died this time, and when he returned to Wanjie Valley, he didn't know how to explain to the practitioners behind them.
But if he didn't choose to retreat, he would be no match for Yang Qi and would have no chance of taking revenge!
Although Lu Peng was unwilling, reason eventually overcame hatred, because he knew that only by retreating could he save his life and have a chance for revenge!
Just when Lu Peng was making a decision in secret, a slightly harsh voice sounded in his ears, "What a waste! Yang Qi killed so many of your companions, and you actually plan to retreat?"
Hearing this voice, Lu Peng's face changed involuntarily. His senses were immediately fully released and he carefully checked the surroundings. However, after searching for a while, he found nothing.
"Who?" Lu Peng asked with an unpleasant expression.
Whoosh~
As Lu Peng finished speaking, a dark gray light streaked across the sky and came in front of him.
"Insect beast?"
Looking at the strange insect beast in front of him, Lu Peng couldn't help but be stunned. Although the insect beasts were not completely unable to speak, the insect beast in front of him was only at the peak of the Martial Emperor level. It should not be possible for it to speak.
"That is..."
At this moment, Lu Peng, who had been looking at the insect beast, suddenly discovered that the insect beast had a strange collar on its body, and there was no energy fluctuation on it.
"A product of technological civilization?" A gleam of light flashed in Lu Peng's eyes, and he instantly understood the origin of the collar. In technological civilization, there are technological items that allow intelligent creatures to express their thoughts. Obviously, that collar is such an item.
"Do you want revenge?" A mechanical and stiff voice came from the insect beast.
"Revenge, of course I want it!" Hearing the insect beast's words, Lu Peng nodded, then looked at the insect beast and said, "But with my strength, I am no match for Yang Qi, and you, a bug beast, can't help me at all."
The insect beast in front of him was only at the peak of the Martial Emperor realm. Insect beasts at this level could hardly match a true Martial Emperor cultivator. Even he was no match for Yang Qi, let alone the insect beast in front of him.
"Although I can't give you any help, my master can help you." The insect beast's voice sounded again, and then continued, "My master and Yang Qi have a big grudge. If you are willing, you can join forces with my master."
"Join hands with your master?"
Lu Peng was stunned, and then fell silent. Although he wanted to take revenge, he did not dare to easily agree to join forces with a cultivator he had never met. After all, he did not even know the strength of the master of the insect beast. If he rashly joined forces, if the gap between the master of the insect beast and Yang Qi was too big, he would really die.
The insect beast seemed to see what Lu Peng was thinking, and spoke again, "You can wait until you see my master before making a decision. It won't take up much of your time anyway, right?"
"good!"
Lu Peng nodded and made a decision instantly.
Although he had decided to leave, he did not leave immediately because he was worried that Yang Qi would be on guard against him leaving the ruins of the Ancient Saint Sect, so he needed to stay in a safe area for a while before leaving. Since the owner of the insect beast was going to attack Yang Qi, he could take advantage of this time to contact the other party. After all, he was in a safe area and did not have to worry about the other party attacking him, so his safety would not be a problem.
Yang Qi didn't know that Lu Peng had already contacted Tang Huai and others who were secretly spying on them. However, Tang Huai and others were in a cave at this time, and the two sides had not yet really joined forces.
At this time, Yang Qi and others were still waiting outside the cave. As time passed, the momentum bursting out from the cave weakened, which made the practitioners outside the cave very happy.
Wu Li looked at the cave not far away and said slowly, "Wait until the aura of the cave disappears, then we can go inside to investigate."
The aura that erupted from the cave was so strong that they could not get close. Once the aura completely dissipated, they could go inside the cave to investigate, and they might get something big. (To be continued)
