Chapter 551: This Is the Real Deal

Across the battlefield, bald-headed, stark-naked Fomen disciples could be seen everywhere, their eyes brimming with killing intent as they furiously roared.

They were really about to break down—who strips others' clothes right at the start like that?

They hadn't even fought properly, yet they ended up being stripped completely bare.

"Little thief, today this poor monk will surely kill you."

Moreover, out of shame and anger, the Fomen disciples' killing intent surged, their attacks grew even more vicious—put simply, they were fuming.

Nevertheless, facing the pursuit of the Fomen disciples, the Dao Yi Sect disciples handled it with ease.

After a round of fighting, although some Dao Yi Sect disciples were injured, the outcome was still within the plan.

Seeing that the time was about up, many disciples exchanged glances, understanding from each other's eyes that it was time to retreat.

In that moment, the Dao Yi Sect disciples who had been posing as bandits instantly switched to award-winning actor mode.

Mainly because the Fomen disciples had nothing left worth stealing.

At this moment, Xu Jie was being besieged by two Fomen Inner Disciples, preparing to retreat; facing their attack, Xu Jie did not choose to dodge this time.

Instead, he put on an act of intending to meet them head‑on; seeing this, the two Fomen Inner Disciples gritted their teeth and shouted.

"Courting death."

"Little thief, hand over your life."

As they spoke, both struck out; seeing this, Xu Jie, with a superb piece of acting, had already flown backward before their blows could land on him.

At the same time, the blood packet on his chest was shattered by a surge of Línglì, making it look, at first glance, as if he had been severely wounded by a single blow.

Moreover, he spat a mouthful of fresh blood from the corner of his mouth and crashed heavily to the ground.

"Perfect."

On the surface it looked utterly miserable, but in reality it was just the blood packet and acting; he silently remarked to himself.

This series of performances was already Xu Jie's peak state.

The whole process was natural and flawless, with not a hint of exaggeration.

As for those two Fomen Inner Disciples, they now glanced at each other, each thinking the same thing.

"Did I not hit him, ah? Oh, senior (or junior) brother, you're amazing."

They both thought the other had landed the blow; for a moment, the two brothers exchanged approving nods.

Seeing this, they both froze in their hearts: "Damn, I didn't hit him—why are you nodding at me?"

Before they could think further, Xu Jie staggered to his feet, blood still hanging from the corner of his mouth, glaring at the two with eyes full of hatred and said.

"What skill is it to bully the few with the many? I've remembered today's affair—I will surely take your lives in the future."

Hearing this, the two Fomen Inner Disciples ignored everything else and immediately sneered.

"You have no future."

"Today is the day of your execution."

Saying that, they launched another attack without hesitation; seeing this, Xu Jie turned and ran without a moment's delay.

Not only Xu Jie, but all the Dao Yi Sect disciples began to retreat; in an instant, the situation on the battlefield reversed completely.

As for the Fomen disciples, due to their earlier shame and anger, plus the Dao Yi Sect disciples' utterly natural acting, they noticed nothing amiss.

Seeing the Dao Yi Sect disciples begin to flee in defeat, the Fomen disciples naturally pursued them relentlessly, unwilling to let up.

Above the sky, the Fomen Holy Ones who were likewise watching the battle saw this scene and all burst into laughter.

"Hong Zun, I've long said that relying solely on underhanded tricks, do you really think you can change anything? Look, the Dao Yi Sect has lost."

The previous humiliation seemed to be completely vented at this moment.

Facing these words, Hong Zun gritted his teeth, looking extremely unwilling, and said resentfully.

"Hmph, what can the outcome of a single battle prove? Don't get too excited too soon, Fomen."

"One battle is already enough, Hong Zun."

Saying that, this Fomen Holy One's fighting spirit surged, to the point that he even seemed to forget his own naked state.

He pursued Hong Zun relentlessly, while Hong Zun likewise showed an unwillingness to accept defeat and flee.

What followed was a chase—you chase, I flee.

The Dao Yi Sect disciples fled all the way toward Le Yun City, while behind them a crowd of naked monks pursued without letup.

But after rushing into the city, where were any Dao Yi Sect disciples to be found?

A group of naked monks looked around in confusion and said.

"Where are the people?"

"How did they disappear?"

The Dao Yi Sect disciples had naturally planned their route in advance; upon entering the city, they immediately scattered, breaking up into individuals.

As for this tactic of running away, the Dao Yi Sect disciples were second to none.

As cultivators, one must be strong in frontal combat, crafty behind the scenes, and swift in flight—only then can one live long.

The Dao Yi Sect disciples have obviously studied this point thoroughly; moreover, a movement technique of the Transformation Realm—do you think it's a joke?

"Go look for them—I don't believe they could have vanished into thin air."

With no trace of the Dao Yi Sect disciples anywhere, the Fomen disciples also spread out to search; perhaps they were hiding somewhere in this great Le Yun City.

But even if so, what then? How long could they stay hidden?

A group of monks, completely naked, looked from afar like a bunch of perverts searching for something.

As for the Dao Yi Sect disciples, they had long since left Le Yun City via different routes, quietly; at this moment, from several hilltops outside the city, they observed everything inside.

As for the Dao Yi Sect disciples, they had long since quietly left Joy Cloud City via different routes, and at this moment they were standing on several hilltops outside the city, watching everything inside the city.

A junior brother looked at Xu Jie and the others and asked; hearing this, Xu Jie was not in a hurry and replied lightly.

Some junior disciples looked at Xu Jie and a few others and asked; upon hearing that, Xu Jie was not in a hurry and replied lightly.

Wait a bit more.

Now is not the best time; wait until more Fomen disciples enter the city, then acting won't be too late.

Meanwhile, the Dao Yi Sect disciples wait in the dark, while the actions of the many Fomen disciples keep becoming more lewd.

It's mainly their current appearance that really makes it hard to look at them.

Moreover, perhaps to put pressure on the Dao Yi Sect disciples, while seeking some Fomen disciples, they keep saying nonstop.

Don't hide anymore, the poor monk has already seen you.

Where can you hide?

Come out obediently, you can't escape the poor monk's Five Finger Mountain.

The words themselves aren't wrong, but now, combined with these Fomen disciples' naked appearance, it seems quite strange.

It feels just like bandits entering a Gōulán.

How do I feel these bald donkeys are so lewd?

Even the Dao Yi Sect disciples couldn't help but complain; upon hearing this, the many fellow disciples beside them all nodded in agreement.

Also, the many Ghost Valley evil spirits that have remained hidden and not revealed themselves are now watching everything in the city; the ghost kings Yin Xiaoshan, Yin Chen, etc., each furrow their brows slightly, and Yin Xiaoshan couldn't help but say:

Do these Fomen disciples have the habit of taking off their clothes before fighting?
