Protagonist:

Yu Changsheng

"Smash it for me!"

Hu Ruhai slammed both hands downward, and that giant cauldron in the sky above also plummeted rapidly, accelerating continuously from a height of several dozen meters in midair.

Combined with its own weight, the force concentrated directly on the Black-Armored Saint Insect's head.

Boom! A ripple of airflow surged in the air, and the Black-Armored Saint Insect's head was also smashed heavily into the ground.

Hu Ruhai's face revealed delight; this blow had landed solidly, and it would certainly inflict no small injury on that Black-Armored Saint Insect.

However, the next second, the smile on Hu Ruhai's face instantly froze.

That Black-Armored Saint Insect abruptly lifted its head again, directly knocking the giant cauldron atop its head flying outward.

The direction the giant cauldron flew was precisely the direction where Hu Ruhai was.

Its speed was so fast that even Hu Ruhai had no time to react before he was heavily smashed by his own magic treasure.

Pfft.

Hu Ruhai violently spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and his whole person was also sent flying backward by that giant cauldron.

After flying over a hundred meters away, he finally steadied his stature.

Feeling his insides churning like overturning rivers and seas, Hu Ruhai violently spat out another mouthful of fresh blood, swallowed several life-saving pills, and only then barely stabilized his injuries.

Looking again at that giant cauldron, its surface was already covered in cracks.

These cracks obviously had not appeared when it smashed into him, but were already there when it smashed into the Black-Armored Saint Insect's head.

"This beast is actually this hard — simply unreasonable; it can't even be budged by this."

Hu Ruhai spat, and admitted defeat.

He immediately withdrew back to the crowd.

Qi Liu San was also thoroughly speechless.

He had originally thought Hu Ruhai's move would achieve some effect; who knew it not only failed to affect the Black-Armored Saint Insect much,

but instead left him covered in injuries and even enraged the Black-Armored Saint Insect, making it even more difficult to deal with now.

"Sigh, you — what am I supposed to say about you?"

Qi Liu San shook his head and hurriedly asked after Hu Ruhai's injuries.

Hu Ruhai gave a miserable laugh; although he had taken some pills to suppress them, the injuries on his body were still very severe.

"Forget it, your men fall back first; I'll think of another way to deal with this damned beast."

Hu Ruhai's few subordinates could only support Hu Ruhai as they retreated to a hidden corner far to the side.

And Yu Changsheng remained behind, continuing to observe.

Qi Liu San noticed Yu Changsheng's odd behavior, frowned, and questioned: "Why aren't you going over there?"

Yu Changsheng smiled: "With so many people protecting him, Team Leader Hu should be safe and sound."

"I think I'll stay here and help instead; this Black-Armored Saint Insect is extremely hard to deal with, more hands are always better."

"You? Forget it, just come along then."

Qi Liu San also agreed, then turned his head to look to the side.

That Black-Armored Saint Insect seemed somewhat tired; at this moment it also stopped thrashing its body, as if preparing to return underground and continue hiding.

Qi Liu San secretly thought things were bad.

After much difficulty luring this stinking bug out, if it were allowed to run back again, it would be troublesome.

Qi Liu San immediately shouted: "You few, go draw its attention, don't let it go back!"

Qi Liu San's few subordinates immediately acknowledged and flew off in different directions.

Once they reached a certain distance from the Black-Armored Saint Insect, they launched various attacks one after another.

Although these attacks could not inflict any real damage on the Black-Armored Saint Insect, they could still attract it again.

The Black-Armored Saint Insect continuously emitted a teeth-aching noise, suddenly leapt up from its spot, and crashed down heavily again.

Its massive weight directly triggered a catastrophe; the entire ground was almost simultaneously ripped open.

Yu Changsheng and the others could not stand firm at all, and unable to fly, they could only cast spells to stabilize themselves.

And the massive air blast also plunged those few besieging it into crisis, forcing them to continuously retreat.

"Damn it, this stinking bug really is a handful."

Qi Liu San could only fret anxiously, yet had no particularly good solution either.

At this moment, Qi Liu San turned back to look at Yu Changsheng, and at Lu Chengfeng not far to the side.

"Lu Chengfeng, why aren't you going to provide support!"

Lu Chengfeng immediately stepped forward a few paces and whispered in Qi Liu San's ear.

"Captain, that guy behind looks like he has impure motives; I'll stay and keep an eye on him."

"You?"

Qi Liu San frowned; although he wasn't sure what trick Lu Chengfeng was playing again,

what he said seemed to have some logic, so he agreed to Lu Chengfeng's request.

Seeing his scheme succeed, Lu Chengfeng immediately nodded respectfully and withdrew, arriving not far from Yu Changsheng.

When Qi Liu San went to the front again to direct his subordinates in besieging the Black-Armored Saint Insect.

Lu Chengfeng then came before Yu Changsheng and said: "Yu Changsheng, opportunities don't keep appearing! Right now there is only one path before you — help me escape from this place!"

"Otherwise, once I expose your identity, neither of us will have a good time."

Yu Zhangsheng smiled and said, "What, you went to such great lengths talking back and forth with that old man, just to say this to me?"

"Since you want to speak, then speak. I absolutely won't stop you."

Yu Zhangsheng sneered inwardly; it seemed this Lu Chengfeng didn't understand the situation at all.

One could even say he didn't understand the situation inside the Da Sheng Clan at all.

People like Yu Zhangsheng, who originally belonged to other Sects and joined the Da Sheng Clan halfway, were countless.

It was estimated this Lu Chengfeng simply hadn't looked into these matters at all, or perhaps simply had no opportunity to understand.

Because this Lu Chengfeng had been seized by Da Sheng Clan people, and his treatment wasn't much better than that of ordinary slaves.

Seeing Yu Zhangsheng so calm, Lu Chengfeng also became somewhat hesitant.

But seeing Yu Zhangsheng also didn't look like he was joking with him, he warned once again: "You think I'm joking!"

"Kid, if I really speak out later, you'll regret it."

Yu Zhangsheng laughed and said, "Saint Son need not overthink; speak if you want to speak, no one will stop you!"

"Very good!"

Lu Chengfeng's eyes held a fierce glint; he turned and ran toward that Qi Liu San, yet also kept an eye on the situation behind him from time to time.

Seeing Yu Zhangsheng still unmoved, this Lu Chengfeng grew thoroughly doubtful in his heart.

Could it be Yu Zhangsheng really isn't afraid.

At this moment, that Qi Liu San also tangled with the Black Armor Saint Insect once again.

Their methods were also very simple: just trying to find a way to exhaust this insect's stamina.

Wait until this insect can no longer jump and move, then unleash the killing move.

With such a huge body, the consumption is likewise huge; without timely replenishment it definitely won't be able to hold on.

And after Lu Chengfeng arrived beside Qi Liu San, he immediately shouted:

"Elder Qi." Qi Liu San frowned and said, "What are you doing here? Weren't you told to watch that kid? Why haven't you withdrawn!"

Lu Chengfeng looked back at Yu Zhangsheng, noticing Yu Zhangsheng surprisingly still had no reaction at all.

He grew even more suspicious in his heart; could it be Yu Zhangsheng really isn't afraid? "Elder Qi, that Yu Zhangsheng..."

"Yu Zhangsheng? You mean that person, what about him? Could there really be a problem."

Lu Chengfeng said, "No, what I mean is, the team Yu Zhangsheng is in can't just stand to one side watching and wait to reap the benefits without effort."

"They must also be made to participate; if we want to consume the Black Armor Saint Insect's stamina, why not have the two teams take turns engaging."

Qi Liu San also felt there was some reason to it.

So he immediately had Lu Chengfeng take his position.

He himself went toward Hu Ruhai's direction to discuss this matter.

Yu Zhangsheng watched from behind, also puzzled what exactly this Lu Chengfeng was up to.

"Could it be this guy really told the Hai Shou Tian Dao matter?"

"Once the Da Sheng Clan discovers the Hai Shou Tian Dao's Location, doesn't he know it will lead to how severe consequences?"

"This guy shouldn't be that stupid yet."

Yu Zhangsheng's gaze met Lu Chengfeng's, and he merely smiled faintly, but the Lu Chengfeng opposite didn't look good.

He soon turned his head and no longer paid him any mind.

And at this time, Hu Ruhai's subordinate ran over, called Yu Zhangsheng over, saying there was an important matter to discuss.

Yu Zhangsheng then immediately followed over; Hu Ruhai, seeing Yu Zhangsheng arrive, briefly informed him of the situation.

The specific content was naturally the matter of cooperating with Qi Liu San's people, the two groups taking turns consuming the Black Armor Saint Insect.

Until they consumed it to the point of exhaustion, then carry out the next step of attack.

Now they also wanted Yu Zhangsheng to help together.

Yu Zhangsheng didn't refuse either, nodding in agreement.

Because Hu Ruhai's injuries were not light, he temporarily couldn't participate, so he had Hu Ruhai's other subordinate Yang Xi temporarily take charge of command and dispatch.

Yang Xi said to everyone: "We few will disperse according to Elder Qi's team's positioning; once Elder Qi's people retreat, we immediately take their place."

"Absolutely must not let the Black Armor Saint Insect escape back underground."

Soon, Yu Zhangsheng and the other few people each took their positions.

Wait until Qi Liu San's subordinates' mana is consumed almost completely, then immediately act.

Yu Zhangsheng arrived behind Lu Chengfeng and laughed, "I say Lu Chengfeng, weren't you going to report me? Could it be you suddenly developed a kind heart?"

Lu Chengfeng, upon hearing Yu Zhangsheng's voice, gritted his teeth in anger.

But right now, the only person he could count on was Yu Zhangsheng alone.

But Yu Zhangsheng always gave him a feeling of being unyielding to both soft and hard tactics, making him feel very powerless.

"Speak, what will it take for you to save me and get me out!"

"As long as you take me away from Ci Di, whatever you want I'll give you!"

Yu Zhangsheng smiled faintly; it seemed this Lu Great Saint Son had indeed relented after all.

"Hehe, your words, I dare not trust too much. Besides, even if I take the chance to bring you away, I'm afraid it won't be that simple, right?"

"Could it be when they seized you, you didn't sign some Contract or the like? Otherwise why would you obey that old man's every word."

Lu Chengfeng's expression turned ferocious; after a good while he suppressed it and said in a low voice, "How do you know this matter?"

Yu Zhangsheng laughed and said, "My understanding of the Da Sheng Clan is far greater than yours."

"If you can't take that Contract away, I'm afraid even if you escape now, won't you still have to voluntarily return in the future?"

Lu Chengfeng's expression was dark and uncertain; after a silence, he said to Yu Zhangsheng, "These things you need not consider."

"You only need to find an opportunity to inform the Sect of my location. The Sect will think of a way to send people to rescue me."

"Rescue? How to rescue? Could it be you think the Sect will dispatch additional forces to attack the Da Sheng Clan?"

"Don't tell me you think the strength of Hai Shou Tian Dao and the Da Sheng Clan are almost the same? Let me tell you the truth, the Da Sheng Clan's Sub-Talisman Cultivators number fully ten thousand, Hai Shou Tian Dao is completely no match for them."

"Or do you think the Sect will pay a price to exchange for you? On this point, you'd better save your breath too."

"Once the Da Sheng Clan's people discover the existence of Hai Shou Tian Dao, do you think the Da Sheng Clan will launch an active attack?"

"The entrance of Hai Shou Tian Dao is discovered, the Da Sheng Clan certainly won't miss such an opportunity!"

Lu Chengfeng immediately shouted in anger: "The Da Sheng Clan people who entered this place are all Sub-Talisman Cultivation Base cultivators. If they dare to go, they absolutely cannot be the opponents of Hai Shou Tian Dao's Spirit Transformation Elders or even those above, the Daoneng!"

Yu Zhangsheng let out a cold snort, disdainfully saying: "So what? Your understanding of the Da Sheng Clan is truly too little. So little it's pitiful."

"First, not to mention, the Da Sheng Clan's ten thousand Sub-Talisman is an incredibly controlling force, moreover the Talismans in their hands can explode with Spirit Transformation Tier attacks!"

"Even a Spirit Transformation Cultivator, if not careful, will suffer heavily."

"An even more important point is, we cannot guarantee whether the Da Sheng Clan has the ability to establish a Transmission Array."

"If the Da Sheng Clan's people are allowed to leave the Secret Realm and establish a Transmission Gate connecting two World domains in the Wai Jie, that would be a disaster for the entire Beihai Yu, indeed for the entire World domain."

"Can you bear this consequence? Just to save you one person, the entire Beihai Yu must be your Burial Companion?"

Yu Zhangsheng's words thoroughly also stifled Lu Chengfeng until he couldn't speak.

Even if he was more overbearing, he still understood right and wrong, weight and importance.

The Sect also wouldn't take such a big risk to save him, very likely after weighing pros and cons, would choose abandonment.

At that time he would truly be finished.

However Yu Zhangsheng's words also reminded him.

He still had one last chip in hand, that was the secret concerning Hai Shou Tian Dao.

"Hmph! You also know this matter is of great importance, I advise you to still rescue me away, otherwise whether it's Hai Shou Tian Dao or Beihai Yu, I will speak it out!"

Yu Zhangsheng's eyes suddenly widened, "You're crazy!"

"I'm not crazy! Hmph hmph, Yu Zhangsheng, if I can't have it good, how could I care about other people's life and death!"

"Let me tell you the truth, if you can't rescue me away, whether it's Hai Shou Tian Dao or your Wanxiang Sect's people, all must be my Burial Companion!"

Lu Chengfeng coldly laughed repeatedly, convinced he had Yu Zhangsheng pinched.

Yu Zhangsheng at this moment was also furious to the extreme, this Lu Chengfeng really was a person selfish to the utmost.

At this moment his heart even sprouted the thought of beheading this Lu Chengfeng on the spot, to eliminate future troubles.

Doing so would still be better than the entire Beihai Yu being annihilated.

However currently, he still didn't want to do this, preparing to first stabilize this guy.

"This matter cannot be acted on rashly, I also need to find an opportunity to look at the situation again."

"As for that Contract, do you know where it is?"

Lu Chengfeng seeing Yu Zhangsheng relent, expression immediately became excited, while making a move while saying in a low voice:

"That Contract is in that old man's hands. As long as he is beheaded, it can be obtained!"

"However it must be at a time when gods don't know ghosts don't perceive to immediately assassinate him, otherwise once he perceives it, I will also join hands to deal with you."

Yu Zhangsheng slightly nodded, "Good, when there's an opportunity I'll make a move."

"Hmph! Best be so, you'd better not play any tricks on me!"

Lu Chengfeng after a sentence of threat, then no longer spoke with Yu Zhangsheng. (Chapter End)
