Chapter 905: Helping by Hindering

"What? Do I, Wan, need to remind you all what to do?"

Just at this moment, Wang Jianqiang's gentle voice sounded once again.

The crowd instantly snapped back to their senses.

Without the slightest hesitation, they flashed over to stand behind Wang Jianqiang.

Even Xuan Che, who hated Wan Guiyuan to the bone, did not dare to provoke Wan Guiyuan's bad luck at this time.

This Wan Guiyuan did not hesitate at all even when offending a big shot like the Youyun Holy Lord; they had no doubt that if they provoked his bad luck at this juncture,

he would absolutely kill them without the slightest hesitation!

Xiaoyue Daoren was already feeling a bit guilty.

Upon feeling the coldness radiating from Wang Jianqiang, his heart trembled.

He hurriedly merged into the Tianlang Hall team and appeared behind Wang Jianqiang along with the Tianlang Hall team.

Afterward, the crowd held nothing back and erupted with power in unison.

They stood in sharp opposition to Cao Tian and the others.

In an instant, the situation on the scene changed abruptly.

It shifted from the initial standoff between the majority of the Cangzhou team and the less than one hundred people from the Beast Taming Sect and the Sacred Palace to a standoff against the entire Youzhou team.

With the numbers turning from an advantage to a disadvantage, the momentum of Cao Tian and the others was immediately suppressed in return.

Cao Tian's expression changed as he looked at the cultivators from other factions within the Cangzhou team, excluding those from the Ancient God Palace.

"Everyone, are you not going to help?"

Among the Ancient God Palace Disciples present, Cao Tian was the existence whose status was second only to Yuwei.

And the Cangzhou team was absolutely dominated by the Ancient God Palace.

Coupled with the fact that due to her personality, Yuwei rarely issued orders to the team, this invisibly elevated Cao Tian's status within the team.

He had almost become the second Leader of Cangzhou.

Upon hearing Cao Tian's order, the remaining cultivators of the Cangzhou team looked at each other; not daring to refuse, they rushed out one after another.

They joined the Ancient God Palace cultivators, including Cao Tian, in confronting the Youzhou side.

The situation on the scene had completely become a struggle between the teams of the two continents.

Seeing this.

The Leaders of the other few continents could no longer sit still.

Their teams from Outside the Realm were indeed strong.

Losing the Beast Taming Sect and the Sacred Palace certainly did not count for much.

But if the two major teams of Cangzhou and Youzhou were to fight, the losses would be significant.

They could not afford that.

Moreover, the combined number of the two teams was over a thousand.

In such a large-scale battle, it would be very difficult to hide the commotion; once the battle started, they would most likely have their whereabouts exposed.

This would be disadvantageous to the attack on Wenxian City.

Thinking of this.

Qingshui and five other Leaders flew up simultaneously and appeared in the center of the two teams.

"You two, our primary goal for this trip is to take Wenxian City."

"Now that the battle with Wenxian City has not yet begun, if you two engage in a major conflict, it will be disadvantageous to the war situation; I hope you two can be a bit calmer."

The six of them looked at Cao Tian and Wang Jianqiang and spoke to persuade them.

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "I, Wan, have always prioritized the big picture. Since you Daoist Friends have said so, I, Wan, will give you all some face."

"However, if Daoist Cao insists on continuing to fight with me, I, Wan, have no other choice but to accompany him to the end..."

As he spoke, Wang Jianqiang looked at Cao Tian indifferently.

Cao Tian did not speak, only staring coldly at Wang Jianqiang.

The tense atmosphere between the two sides remained, without the slightest relaxation.

Seeing this, Qingshui and the others frowned.

"Everyone, stop."

Just at this moment, a soft voice carrying a hint of timidity suddenly arrived.

Hearing this voice, the Cangzhou cultivators all restrained their auras.

Cao Tian's expression froze, and he also followed suit by restraining his aura.

He looked down.

In the area where the Cangzhou cultivators had originally stood, only one figure remained now.

It was none other than Yuwei.

From beginning to end, she had never left her original spot.

Seeing Cao Tian look over, Yuwei spoke; seemingly still unaccustomed to speaking under the gaze of so many people, her voice was shy, soft, and weak, "Senior Brother, Junior Sister feels that what the Daoist Friends said makes sense; attacking Wenxian City is important."

Hearing Yuwei's words, Cao Tian's expression shifted for a moment.

Although he was unwilling to retreat.

He was very clear about Yuwei's personality.

Yuwei appeared soft and timid, but in reality, her personality was very firm.

Under normal circumstances, she would not easily intervene in anything, but once she made up her mind to speak, it was very difficult to make her change her mind.

He was silent for a moment, but in the end, he nodded.

With a face full of resentment, he glanced at Wang Jianqiang, flashed his figure, and returned behind Yuwei.

After Cao Tian landed, the group of Cangzhou Cultivators landed back in their original positions one after another.

Seeing this, Wang Jianqiang looked at Yuwei, "Fairy is truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and deeply righteous."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, a distinct blush appeared on Yuwei's face.

Wang Jianqiang stared at Yuwei with a smile, his gaze not shifting in the slightest.

Yuwei's complexion immediately turned even redder.

Seeing this scene, Cao Tian immediately clenched his fists tightly, his face turning a shade of livid green.

Seeing this, Qingshui and several other Leaders, fearing that the two would fall out and start fighting again, hurriedly spoke to change the subject, "Daoist Friend Wan, Daoist Friend Cao and the others have already slain Ye Lingyun; next, we must trouble you, Daoist Friend, to sneak into Wenxian City and destroy the Wenxian City Protective Array."

"Rest assured, Daoist Friend, once you successfully break the Wenxian City Protective Array, we will certainly not forget your contribution."

Wang Jianqiang smiled and was about to speak.

A cold sneer suddenly came from somewhere, "Heh, contribution?"

"Rather than discussing that contribution which we don't even know if we can obtain, it would be better to let Daoist Friend Wan first explain how he led the team and caused the deaths of our elites from various continents."

Hearing this voice,

the other few Leaders were stunned and looked at Wang Jianqiang one after another.

Previously, the atmosphere between Wan Guiyuan and Cao Tian was tense, and they were only focused on breaking up the fight, neglecting the losses of their own elite teams.

The elite squads had suffered heavy losses, and this Wan Guiyuan indeed owed them an explanation.

Wang Jianqiang narrowed his eyes and looked toward the Tengzhou Leader.

This Tengzhou Leader seemed to have an excellent relationship with Cao Tian, and from beginning to end, he had been helping Cao Tian target him.

Facing Wang Jianqiang's gaze, which shimmered with a hint of coldness, the Tengzhou Leader sneered, "What? Am I not speaking the truth?"

"As the Leader of the elite squad, you held the decision-making power for the team, rashly entering the unknown Flame World and splitting the team into four small squads..."

"These foolish decisions were all made by you, right, Daoist Friend?"

"Should you not be held responsible for your own stupidity?"

Hearing this, Wang Jianqiang suddenly started to laugh.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Is what I said not correct?"

The Tengzhou Leader's gaze turned cold, and he said in a chilly voice.

Upon hearing this, the smile on Wang Jianqiang's face grew even more intense, "Right, right, right, what you say is correct, Daoist Friend, and your analysis hits the nail on the head."

"The destruction of the elite squad was indeed due to the two foolish decisions of rashly entering the unknown Flame World and splitting the troops into four paths."

"But these two foolish decisions were not made by me, Wan."

As he spoke, he shifted his gaze to look at Cao Tian.

Sensing Wang Jianqiang's gaze, Cao Tian's heart skipped a beat, and he cursed his luck inwardly.

He had seen that Wan Guiyuan did not mention this matter and had assumed it would be glossed over.

He did not expect that this fellow Yanshan would actually bring it up again.

He knew that Yanshan was doing this to vent his anger after seeing that he had failed to gain any advantage in Wan Guiyuan's hands.

But the reality was...

Not only did he fail to help, but he actually made things worse!
