Chapter 97

Ye Changqing swore that he really just said it casually.

Facing the gaze of many disciples, Ye Changqing shrank his neck and said helplessly and cautiously,

"That, senior brothers, what is this...?"

Hearing this, the brothers didn't answer, but turned their heads again to look at the aquatic demon beasts rushing over. However, at this moment, the look in everyone’s eyes changed completely.

Some disciples even muttered,

"They are all high-quality ingredients."

Saying this, the long sword in his hand slowly came out of its sheath, and his eyes also turned red.

Junior Brother Changqing, if you want to say that, then Senior Brother will have spirit.

Even personal disciples like Zhao Zheng, Liu Shuang, Xu Jie, Lu Youyou, and Wang Yao were like this. Liu Shuang also licked her beautiful red lips,

"Is this quantity a bit small? Is it enough to eat?"

"Nonsense, how can it be enough for so many of us?"

"Isn't this East Sea known as having countless aquatic races? Why did only so few come?"

"Get them first, and then think of a way."

"That’s right, we are already in the coastal camp, so what are we afraid of not having to eat? At worst, we will kill our way out when our injuries are healed."

Good guy, because he was standing beside Zhao Zheng and the others, Ye Changqing heard their conversation completely.

Just a moment ago, they were worried, and now you want to kill your way out?

Looking at the aggressive aquatic race, Ye Changqing said in a low voice,

"Senior brothers, I think we should consider the matter at hand first."

"That’s right, what do you think? Kill our way out directly?"

Want to kill our way out again? Ye Changqing was numb.

Fortunately, Xu Jie shook his head,

"Senior Brother, don't worry, Junior Brother has his own preparations."

Once these words were out, some disciples around also spoke up one after another,

"Mm, get them a wave first."

"That’s right, fighting also requires strategy."

"Stabilize first."

Listening to everyone’s words, Ye Changqing was confused, and Zhao Zheng was also confused, but the disciples who spoke were all full of confidence.

On the other side, Jiao Min, who led the aquatic race to rush over, looked at the camp getting closer and closer, and his smile became more brilliant.

"After this battle, this position of young master must be mine."

As if he had already seen the scene of breaking the coastal camp, but at this time, an aquatic race beside him said,

"Third Prince, something is wrong, why is there red light on the city wall? It looks like pairs of eyes."

"Bullsh*t! Have you ever seen anyone’s eyes glow red?"

Jiao Min hadn't realized the danger yet, and the Sword Peak disciples on the city wall, seeing the aquatic race getting closer, couldn't help but drool,

"Coming, coming."

"Still a little bit, still a little bit."

"Immediately, good, do it!"

Not understanding what everyone was saying at all, I saw an inner disciple suddenly form a seal, and then a sky-high fire broke out in the distance. Instantly, hundreds of demon beasts were affected.

This was the light of the talisman, and it seemed that the grade was not low.

"Haha, this is the talisman I buried in the afternoon, I didn't expect it to come in handy."

He laughed excitedly, but the next second he was scolded by Xu Jie,

"Who f*cking told you to use a fifth-grade talisman? The demon beasts were roasted by you, how can they be ingredients?"

"Wasteful thing, look at me."

Then other disciples began to form seals, and another piece of talisman light rose.

This time it was a third-grade Golden Light Talisman. Rays of brilliant light instantly enveloped hundreds of the aquatic tribe, piercing through their bodies in the blink of an eye.

On the city wall, a wave of cheers erupted from the crowd.

"Good, this Golden Light Talisman was chosen cleverly; it didn't damage the corpses of these aquatic creatures."

"Senior Brother Tang, your consideration is truly thorough."

In the short time of less than a quarter of an hour that followed, Ye Changqing only saw various talismans and arrays being activated continuously outside the camp.

They were of all types and grades, covering almost every corner outside the camp.

Those aquatic creatures didn't even have a chance to react before they were instantly enveloped by the talismans and arrays.

Glancing at the jubilant senior brothers and sisters around him, Ye Changqing felt a bit numb.

"Did you all set these up?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Jie threw an arm around Ye Changqing and said excitedly.

"Of course. If it wasn't us, could it be those hags from Jade Maiden Peak?"

"Junior Brother, remember this: as disciples of our Divine Sword Peak, no matter where you go in the future, always keep one phrase in mind: a gentleman does not stand under a crumbling wall."

Hearing this, Ye Changqing’s scalp tingled. Is this really a matter of a gentleman not standing under a crumbling wall?

We arrived at the offshore camp—if he remembered correctly—less than a day ago, and everyone is still nursing injuries.

In such a short time, you guys actually managed to set up so many talismans and arrays outside the camp.

What’s even more exaggerated is that the technique of the setup is so ingenious that even talisman masters and array masters would likely give a thumbs up.

Take the current situation: after experiencing the first wave of talismans and arrays, these aquatic creatures have become extremely cautious.

Not only did they scatter instantly, but they also chose to avoid any place that looked suspicious from afar, never getting close.

Yet, even so, they still couldn't escape.

A squad of a thousand aquatic creatures was charging toward the camp while cautiously guarding their surroundings.

Noticing that a patch of ground ahead seemed to have traces of being disturbed, and had even been deliberately covered with a layer of leaves,

the leader of this aquatic squad sneered and immediately ordered the team to go around it.

"Hah, we were unprepared before, but now you still want to use such crude methods to make me fall for it? Too naive."

As soon as the words left their mouth, the talismans were triggered. The entire squad was surrounded by dozens of talismans, with golden light flashing all around.

And the place they were currently standing was right next to that suspicious patch of ground; they had completely bypassed it, yet they still fell into the trap.

"Why?"

Their eyes were filled with confusion. Why were there talismans here?

On the city wall, the senior brother who had set up this batch of talismans smiled with a calm expression.

"Do you think I wouldn't anticipate what you could think of? That patch of ground was dug on purpose; the real talismans were set up on the inevitable path beside it. Hah."

There were also some aquatic creatures that had already fallen into an array's encirclement and were charging out of it at all costs.

"Charge straight ahead! There won't be any more arrays in front. No one would be stupid enough to set up arrays in a straight line."

Having successfully broken out of the array, they thought they would be safe, but the next moment, they were trapped by another array.

On the city wall, the senior brother who set up the array sneered.

"As the saying goes, the first drum raises the spirit, the second tires it, and the third exhausts it. When facing an enemy's fierce offensive, one must weaken them layer by layer, until in the end, they can no longer muster any desire to resist and can only obediently surrender."

And indeed, this squad of aquatic creatures had already broken through three arrays in a row. They thought there wouldn't be any more, but who would have guessed that after two steps, they would be enveloped by another array. The leader of the aquatic creatures was almost crying from the torture.

"Who the hell set up these arrays? They're all in a straight line!"
