Chapter 379: Average
The reaction of Zhuge Yi caused the expressions of everyone present to become extremely grave.
Who is Zhuge Yi?
The undisputed number one genius of the younger generation of the Zhuge family!
Among the other four great clans, there are arguably very few peers who can be mentioned in the same breath as Zhuge Yi.
Just how terrifying must the thing behind that blood-colored altar be for Zhuge Yi to suffer such a severe backlash from merely taking a single glance?
"Prepare to move! Destroy that blood-colored altar; we cannot let the Sang Kingdom people release whatever is behind it!"
Ye Nangue shouted in a low voice, making a decisive choice.
The others nodded in agreement; the Sang Kingdom people had been plotting this for a long time, and whatever was behind the blood-colored altar was certainly extraordinary.
The group gathered together to discuss the next course of action, with the Ye family, as the head of the five great clans, directly beginning to issue orders.
"From what I can currently sense, there are only three Starry Sky Realm cultivators on the Sang Kingdom side, two of whom appear to have only recently advanced to the Starry Sky Realm, as their auras are still somewhat unstable. My Ye family will handle these three."
"Ji Yanyin, your Ji family is responsible for the other 20 Sang Kingdom people. Capture them alive if you can; if not, kill them all. Don't let a single one escape!"
"Zhuge Yi, you are more familiar with that blood-colored altar. The people from the Zhuge, Xie, and Jiang families will follow you; the three of you will be responsible for destroying the blood-colored altar."
"Alright, I have finished speaking. Who agrees? Who opposes?"
Ye Nangue quickly formulated a simple battle plan.
"Alright, if no one opposes, we will proceed according to this plan. Move!"
Ye Nangue led the Ye family members to surround the three Starry Sky Realm cultivators of the Sang Kingdom.
At the same time, Ji Yanyin and Ji Tianxuan also prepared to take action, while the rest of the group charged directly toward the blood-colored altar, wanting to cut the Gordian knot!
But the moment they drew near, the ground suddenly trembled violently, as if a Golza was about to awaken beneath the earth.
Blinding blood-red rays of light shot into the sky, rapidly forming a terrifying blood-colored net that trapped everyone inside.
The blood-colored net emitted a fishy stench, and the surging blood light was like magma, capable of easily burning people.
Some tried to attack the blood-colored net, but their attacks were like clay oxen entering the sea, directly swallowed by the net, which only caused it to expand further.
Everyone's complexion changed abruptly; it was clear that the Sang Kingdom people had discovered them long ago!
"Hehe... the five great clans? Just a hollow reputation, nothing more than this."
Tsuji Kaku slowly walked toward them, a smile of successful conspiracy hanging on his face.
"Don't bother struggling. This blood-colored net is a curse refined from the blood of countless Daxia people; it is of the same origin as the blood in your bodies. If you dare to touch it, you die. The only way is to wait for the power within the blood-colored net to exhaust itself."
Some from the five great clans did not believe it and tried to force their way out, but the moment they touched the blood-colored net, strange blood-colored runes crawled onto them like little insects.
"Save me! Save me!"
He tried to call for help, but it was completely useless. Soon, all the blood in his body was sucked into the blood-colored net along those blood-colored runes, and he became a dried corpse.
After absorbing the man's blood, the blood-colored net became visibly more eerie.
At this moment, a handsome guy carrying a flag who did not wish to reveal his name dragged the corpse away.
Having witnessed the horror of the blood-colored net, the others dared not act rashly for the time being.
"How exactly did you discover us?"
Ye Nangue's expression was extremely ugly. He did not believe that the Sang Kingdom people could monitor them without anyone noticing; the Sang Kingdom people did not have that capability!
"That's simple. Offer enough benefits and have the Daxia people in the Heaven-Refining Secret Realm report the movements of your five great clans to me at any time, isn't that enough?"
Tsuji Kaku grinned, laughing quite brazenly.
"You Daxia people are too well protected and have been too comfortable for too long. Those people didn't even ask why I wanted to inquire about the movements of the five great clans before they impatiently agreed."
A look of humiliation appeared on everyone's faces; the strongest alliances are often dismantled from within.
No wonder they were trapped the moment they appeared; this group of Sang Kingdom people had long since set a trap and were just waiting for them to jump in!
"Miss Zhuge Yi."
Tsuji Kaku's gaze turned to Zhuge Yi, and he bowed to her.
"Not only were you able to discover what we were doing, but you also successfully united the five great clans to come and kill us. If we hadn't possessed more intelligence than you, you might have actually succeeded."
"You are very smart, and my Sang Kingdom loves smart people the most. Why don't you come back to the Sang Kingdom with me? I, Tsuji Kaku, will marry you as my wife. You and I will be a powerful union. Staying in a place like Daxia is a waste of your talent."
Even with her eyes closed and covered by a black silk blindfold, Zhuge Yi could feel Tsuji Kaku's gaze scanning her body. She spoke coldly.
"No thanks. I have watched some films produced by your country; the men of your country... are average."
Average.
Average.
Average.
These two words, drifting from Zhuge Yi's red lips, were like a decree of truth, transforming into two huge bold characters that struck directly at the hearts of everyone present.
Tsuji Kaku's face turned livid instantly, as if he had eaten a green-headed fly with eggs.
The rest of the Sang Kingdom people were also instantly broken.
Zhuge Yi's sentence didn't contain a single dirty word, yet it was more insulting than anything else! It was simply killing the heart!
How is it average?
Where is it average?
What is average? Who is average?
"Good! Very good!"
Tsuji Kaku gritted his teeth, his eyes turning red as he stared fixedly at Zhuge Yi.
"You Daxia people have an old saying: those who know current affairs are heroes! Since you, Zhuge Yi, do not know current affairs, then later I will definitely make you regret it thoroughly! I will let you see for yourself the methods of us Sang Kingdom people!"
Facing Tsuji Kaku's threat, Zhuge Yi nodded calmly.
"Indeed, it is precisely because you are average that you can only resort to methods."
"Baka!"
Tsuji Kaku was completely broken, his native language bursting out. He wanted to rush over and fight Zhuge Yi to the death, but the blood-colored net not only trapped the people of the five great clans but also blocked them out.
If they broke in at will, they would damage the blood-colored net, which left Tsuji Kaku and the other Sang Kingdom people only able to jump in anger outside the net.
The rest of the five great clans were now looking at Zhuge Yi with a mixture of admiration and fear.
A heroine among women!
Zhuge Yi had only said two sentences in total, yet every word carried true damage, and every hit was a critical strike, chasing the Sang Kingdom people to kill them.
Is this the gold content of the Zhuge family? It is truly terrifying!
"Whatever, let you be arrogant for a while longer!"
Tsuji Kaku clenched his fists tightly, his molars nearly shattering. If looks could cause damage, Zhuge Yi would likely have been hacked into a thousand pieces by now.
"When this altar opens, not only will everyone in the Heaven-Refining Secret Realm die! Your ancient Daxia Kingdom will also perish! Zhuge Yi, I want you to see all of this with your own eyes and understand what the consequences are for offending me today!"
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Yi tilted her head cutely.
"Are you anxious?"
