Chapter 180: Do You Have Any Objections?

"Gu Ying, why don't you go and try?"

At this moment, Shen Yu in the Array was still looking at them with a smile, but in their eyes, Shen Yu's smile had become unfathomable.

It made one's hair stand on end from the inside out, and they couldn't help but tremble with fear.

The two of them already had thoughts of retreating; if Shen Yu really ran out from there, it was likely that not a single person here would be able to escape.

At this moment, they hated themselves immensely for not being able to hold back and running out; wouldn't it have been fine to just let Gu Ying struggle on his own outside?

At the same time, they couldn't help but curse Gu Ying, that piece of trash, in their hearts; he wasn't even sure if he could completely trap Shen Yu, wasting such a powerful Array.

However, the only response they got was Gu Ying's cold gaze, which made their hearts skip a beat.

They naturally knew what Gu Ying cared about most; having repeatedly rubbed salt into his wounds just now, Gu Ying already hated them to the bone.

If it weren't for his own reservations, this guy would have already made a move on them. And it was precisely because they knew Gu Ying had reservations that they dared to challenge his sensitivities again and again.

But people all have a bottom line, and on top of that, they had just blurted out for Gu Ying to rush up. Having him be the one to rush forward first for a suicide mission had once again stirred up Gu Ying's dissatisfaction.

One look at that gaze was enough to know that if it were possible, Gu Ying certainly wouldn't mind sending them on their way.

Damn it, if it weren't for being on your turf, believe it or not, this master would call up eight hundred lackeys and hack you into eight hundred pieces, one blade each.

"Gu Ying, don't misunderstand. Only you can control this Array; we are powerless. That's why we wanted you to test him; there is absolutely no other meaning!"

"Right, right, there really is no other meaning!"

"Hmph!" Gu Ying let out a cold snort at the two of them, his voice even colder than before. "I only said it was a possibility; I didn't say he would definitely be able to escape!"

Looking toward Shen Yu's direction, Gu Ying still said quite confidently: "Rest assured, even if he can come out, he will inevitably be severely injured and his Original Qi will be greatly damaged!"

"Since ancient times, many people have inadvertently broken into our clan, among whom there was no lack of experts, and even more who harbored evil intentions."

"Yet for so many years, no one has been able to shake this set of Arrays in our clan. Those with ulterior motives have all ended up with no bones left!"

"Although Shen Yu is strong, before this set of Arrays, he is like an ant!"

"Yes, yes, what you say is also right!" The two of them gave a sheepish smile, but their faces were still filled with worry.

They had previously believed his unreliable self when he said his family's Array was peerless in the world. They thought that if it could even trap the Master, trapping a Shen Yu would be as easy as pie.

Who would have thought that this guy could only mobilize a portion of the Array's power, and while they didn't know exactly how much he could mobilize, it certainly wasn't much.

And he was still comparing the past with the present; do you know what "the sea changing into mulberry fields" means?

Big brother, what was the level of experts in the past, and what is the level of experts now?

Ever since Mu Zishan suppressed the Forbidden Land with his own strength, the limit of the world's experts has been raised by far too much.

The top experts of the past, while not exactly everywhere now, are certainly not few in number.

And this Shen Yu before us is clearly someone who has surpassed the True Soul Realm, a presence that can be called invincible in the world. Is your family's Array really reliable against such an expert?

Not to mention us, aren't you worried yourself? You don't even believe the words you say yourself, yet you want others to believe them; are you planning to get everyone killed?

Only now did they understand why Gu Ying had gathered them all here.

It wasn't for the sake of "just in case"; Gu Ying didn't trust himself at all and had dragged them here to be his scapegoats.

In the plan Gu Ying had discussed with them, once Shen Yu was trapped by the Array, he would definitely try to find a way to break through the Great Array.

If the Array became unstable, that would be the time for them to act, adding their own cultivation to the Array to maintain it, thereby ensuring nothing would go wrong.

It was precisely because of this that they had gathered here.

But Shen Yu had never attacked the Array, and everyone thought Shen Yu was truly trapped by the Great Array and unable to break free, so the others never appeared.

Now they finally understood: Gu Ying never had absolute certainty. The reason he tricked them all into coming was that he had calculated them into it from the start.

If Shen Yu couldn't get out, then naturally everyone would be happy. But if Shen Yu could get out, then it would be a disaster, and everyone would die at Shen Yu's hands.

And as long as these outsiders were all dead, Gu Ying's clansmen would be able to preserve themselves.

For the sake of his own clansmen, he was going to get these outsider experts killed, just in case any of them survived and attacked his clansmen.

In other words, they had all been calculated by Gu Ying, whom they usually looked down upon. No matter who won between them and Shen Yu, Gu Ying himself would not be a loser.

The sinister nature of his heart was already laid bare!

"Rest assured, it's fine!"

Just as their expressions were shifting, Gu Ying said, "Shen Yu's power is being continuously absorbed by the Array; I can feel that vast power."

"The longer it drags on, the weaker he will become, until finally, he is like a useless person!"

"Are you sure?"

"Of course! I can still feel that much."

"I think his best move now is to pretend to be weak, and when we believe it to be true, he will suddenly strike!"

"As long as we don't fall for it, it should be fine. Rest assured!"

"Is that so? So that's what you guessed. I have to say, your guess is not accurate at all!"

At this moment, a terrifying aura that made one tremble suddenly came from behind them, causing all three of them to shiver in unison.

This aura was as bottomless as a ten-thousand-foot abyss and as mysterious and unfathomable as the vast heavens.

Just a slight perception of it made them feel as if they had encountered a great horror; they trembled all over and didn't even dare to move a muscle.

It was as if every cell in their bodies was radiating an emotion called fear.

They turned their heads with difficulty and saw Shen Yu looking at them with a smile; in an instant, it was as if they had fallen into an icy hell.

An endless cold current surged into their hearts, making them feel as if they had instantly fallen into absolute zero, freezing all their movements and even their thoughts.

Shen Yu had come out!

"This is impossible!" Looking at Shen Yu behind them in terror, Gu Ying's mind was filled with nothing but "impossible" and disbelief.

Even if this Shen Yu was powerful, it was impossible for him to break free from the Great Array without a sound.

This was a Great Array that could even trap the Master; although he could only mobilize a little bit of its power, that little bit was enough to be proud of in the world.

Even if Shen Yu could break through the restraints with overwhelming force, he shouldn't have felt nothing at all; at the very least, there should have been some fluctuations.

But there were none; there was nothing at all. He felt nothing, and yet Shen Yu had already appeared behind them.

"Shen Yu, how could you possibly have gotten out!"

"Because I was never in the Array, so your Array didn't work at all!"

"Oh right, I also happened to find a few little bugs hiding on the side; you all should see if anyone is missing!"

As he spoke, Shen Yu threw several people at their feet; these people were all their companions.

Who would have thought that even with the cover of the Array, they would still be rounded up in one go by Shen Yu, with not a single one left.

"This is impossible, clearly..." Even with the facts right before their eyes, Gu Ying still could not believe it. When he looked back into the Great Array, Shen Yu was still there.

That's right, Shen Yu was clearly in the Array, so who was the one behind them? Two Shen Yus? An illusion? A mirage?

And just at this moment, the Shen Yu in the Array smiled at them, and then vanished from where he stood. The power of the Array lost its target and subsequently dissipated into nothingness.

"This, this..."

"Someone told me there was an ambush here, so I made a little preparation early on. Take a look at who wrote this, don't accidentally hurt them when we start fighting later!"

While speaking, a jade tablet had already appeared in Shen Yu's hand, with the scribbled words "Run away" carved upon it.

"Traitor!" At this point, how could they not know what had happened? One by one, they were filled with righteous indignation, wishing they could skin this traitor alive.

Even the one trapped in the valley was furious; despite all precautions, it is hard to guard against a thief within one's own house. He wanted to make the person who dared to betray him pay the price.

In an instant, everyone was twitching in pain on the ground; the anger of the one in the valley would inevitably have to be borne by someone.

"So this is an internal conflict, dogs biting dogs, a mouthful of fur. The one you all serve doesn't have much of a temperament, does he!"
