Chapter 1421

~7 min read 1,302 words

After that round of Talisman Seal, the Formation's frantic bombardment, the Emperor-level Formation that trapped the people of the Medicine King Pavilion, at this point also finally reached its limit, began to crack little by little.

But right now this Emperor-level Formation is useless; if it breaks, it breaks.

Seeing this, Yun Xiantai and the others remained unfazed, while having freed themselves from the Formation's restraints, the people of the Medicine King Pavilion felt no joy at all.

The main issue is that the cost is too great—many have fallen, even more are wounded, and almost everyone is injured.

The most critical problem is that, damn, they still haven't even engaged Yun Xiantai's group right now.

This is essentially crippling themselves before the fight even begins.

The Grand Elder's eyes blazed with fury, not knowing if it was his blood and qi surging to his heart, he immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

That Emperor Sovereign attendant's gaze toward Yun Xiantai was also full of apprehension.

His condition isn't great; dealing with Yun Xiantai alone is already difficult, and there's also Qiu Baiyi.

Against two opponents, he has no chance of victory.

Most importantly, the Emperor Sovereign attendant on the other side is being besieged by Dongfang Hong and his two companions, and it looks like he won't be able to hold out much longer.

Feng Ming and Bai Xian'er are uncertain when they'll arrive, and the situation has become very passive.

"Yun Xiantai, you stole the Medicine King Pavilion's ancient imperial-pattern elixir, and now you've killed so many of our people............"

Yao Yunfeng spoke, but Yun Xiantai didn't listen to his nonsense at all.

"Stop, you're still saying these things meaningful now? Trying to buy time?"

Yao Yunfeng was indeed trying to buy time, waiting for Feng Ming and Bai Xian'er to arrive, after which the situation could improve—though not necessarily gain an advantage, at least it wouldn't be as one-sided as it is now.

But Yun Xiantai is no fool; how could he give Yao Yunfeng the chance to stall? As soon as his words fell, he immediately called on everyone to attack.

He was the first to go up against that Emperor Sovereign attendant.

"Courting death."

Seeing Yun Xiantai charging straight at him, that Emperor Sovereign attendant shouted coldly, yet he dared not be careless in the slightest.

He hadn't forgotten that there was still Qiu Baiyi, and he remained vigilant against her.

But once he had engaged Yun Xiantai in combat, Qiu Baiyi didn't attack; the Emperor Sovereign attendant felt a bit puzzled, glanced sideways, and then shouted with eyes nearly bursting.

"You dare..........."

Qiu Baiyi completely ignored him, instead charging straight into the crowd and beginning to massacre the Medicine King Pavilion's strongmen.

With Qiu Baiyi's Emperor Sovereign cultivation and no one to restrain her, she was like a tiger among sheep.

Even the Medicine King Pavilion's Great Emperor attendants couldn't stop her at all.

Others were like helpless sheep, mercilessly reaped.

Every strike left the Medicine King Pavilion with heavy casualties; in a short time, the number of those killed by Qiu Baiyi was already shocking.

If we let them keep killing like this, the cost would be more than the Medicine King Pavilion could bear.

It's likely that everyone here will be slain by her.

That Emperor Sovereign attendant was seething with rage, but with Yun Xiantai present, he couldn't even break free, let alone intervene.

Qiu Baiyi, having carved a bloody path, soon spotted Yao Yunfeng.

The Medicine King Pavilion's sect leader—immediately, Qiu Baiyi charged straight at him.

Killing Yao Yunfeng would be a huge blow to the Medicine King Pavilion.

He felt a chill wash over him; as Yao Yunfeng turned his head, he saw Qiu Baiyi rushing straight at him.

Instantly, his hairs stood on end—she was an Emperor Sovereign powerhouse, while he, though the Medicine King Pavilion's sect leader and an Emperor-level Pill Master, had actual cultivation only at the minor achievement of Great Emperor.

Moreover, his true combat prowess might not even match that of an ordinary Great Emperor expert, after all, a Pill Master doesn't pursue battle strength.

Against Qiu Baiyi, he had absolutely no chance—Yao Yunfeng had no doubt about that.

Qiu Baiyi hesitated not at all, immediately raising her hand to prepare a strike to kill Yao Yunfeng.

At the critical moment, Yao Yunfeng shouted loudly.

"Brother Nangong, save me............"

As Yao Yunfeng's words fell, a figure suddenly appeared, blocking in front of him and intercepting Qiu Baiyi's attack.

Seeing the man appear, Qiu Baiyi frowned slightly, for this man was also an Emperor Sovereign.

With the man's appearance, Yao Yunfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief, then spoke politely.

"Thank you, Brother Nangong."

"Medicine King Pavilion sect leader, you flatter me; I'm just taking others' money to ward off disaster for them."

Not far away, Jueshi saw the man appear, his expression changing—how could another Emperor Sovereign attendant have shown up?

As the Forefather of Food as Heaven, Jueshi knew the true strength of the Medicine King Pavilion.

Not counting the Emperor Sovereign attendant who was killed earlier, the Medicine King Pavilion should have only five Emperor Sovereign attendants.

Feng Ming, Bai Xian'er, and two others make up the four openly known; there is also an Emperor Sovereign attendant who has been in the Medicine King Pavilion for a long time, so he has remained hidden behind the scenes.

It is precisely because he knows this, having taken all possible scenarios into account, that Jueshi chose to join forces with Yun Xiantai and the others.

But now, another Emperor Sovereign attendant has suddenly appeared—one he had never heard of—and this made Jueshi's heart sink.

A single Emperor Sovereign is already enough to sway the entire battle.

"This is getting troublesome................"

Not only did Jueshi realize the problem, but Lin attendant, Zhang attendant, Yun Xiantai, and Qiu Baiyi also understood this.

Originally, the situation was as good as certain, but now the extra Emperor Sovereign attendant could very well cause an accident.

With the man protecting him in front, Yao Yunfeng's confidence grew considerably, and he spoke in a deep voice.

"Brother Nangong, please hold her off; just wait for Feng Ming and Bai Xian'er to arrive."

"Good."

Hearing that, the Emperor Sovereign attendant said nothing more and simply nodded.

Regarding this, Qiu Baiyi furrowed their brows slightly; this man's strength is not weak, and Qiu Baiyi has no confidence.

Moreover, battles between Emperor Sovereigns are hard to decide in a short time unless one side has a numerical advantage.

Once Feng Ming and Bai Xian'er arrive, it's hard to say how the outcome will be.

Things still took a turn for the worse, and this man is very likely the trump card of Medicine Cloud Peak.

Indeed, that is exactly the case; this man only recently joined the Medicine King Pavilion, and he did so out of desperation.

Outsiders are completely unaware of his existence; even Jue Shi has never heard of him.

Therefore, Medicine Cloud Peak initially kept him hidden, intending to keep a trump card; looking back now, that was truly a wise move.

Being overshadowed by the saying "food is heaven", but so what; our Medicine King Pavilion has its own confidence.

But just as Medicine Cloud Peak secretly let out a sigh of relief and their hearts eased a little, suddenly, a voice of surprise came.

"Second brother?"

"Huh???"

Upon hearing this, everyone on the battlefield froze a bit, wondering, "What second brother? Who is being called second brother?"

Looking toward the sound, it turned out to be Dongfang Hong, who at that moment gazed at that man with a look of astonishment and joy, his eyes full of disbelief; even his body trembled slightly from excitement, and his eyes reddened.
