Chapter 248: Speculation

Even if they couldn't completely defeat them, they probably had ways to deal with them, otherwise the four great protectors of the Wu'e Clan wouldn't have appeared suddenly.

The facts were as Lv Fang expected. Although the four great protectors of the Wu'e Clan and the fifteen Confucian experts were all existences beyond the Ninth Rank, Third Stage, the gap between the two sides was very large. Except for Jue Hufa Huan, who stood motionless in front of the black mist tunnel.

The other three protectors, led by Jue Hufa Jue, rushed directly into the crowd. Every time they made a move, someone would be knocked flying.

Their strength was very strong, but it was still quite difficult to kill them.

So most of the existences beyond the Ninth Rank on Lv Fang's side only suffered some injuries. Although they couldn't beat them, with mutual help, they could completely retreat while resisting.

Even in this situation, Lv Fang and Xue Luo Sha at the back couldn't intervene. The combat power of both sides on the battlefield was simply not something they could help with.

They retreated five miles away.

The three great protectors of the Wu'e Clan, led by Jue, did not pursue, but returned to the black mist tunnel to guard.

Great Scholar Liu Yan was hit by one of the Wu'e protectors, Li, when he retreated just now. He coughed twice, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his wide sleeve, frowned and said, "I didn't expect these four Wu'e alien races to be so strong."

Xue Luo Sha said anxiously, "The four Semi-Sages are trapped in the black mist tunnel. What should we do?"

Great Scholar Liu Yan gave a bitter smile and shook his head, "I really didn't expect that the black mist tunnel could trap the four Semi-Sages. This situation is a bit unexpected. Just now I tried it, and because Quasi-Dao Sage Taifeng set up a trap formation here..."

"The sound transmission talisman cannot transmit sound to the outside world. I estimate that even if we want to retreat, we might not be able to do it."

"We are unable to protect ourselves now and cannot help the four Semi-Sages at all. However, don't worry. The trap formation is still there, which means they should not have met with disaster."

"Think about it carefully. In fact, we don't need to be anxious. With the strength of the four Semi-Sages, they won't be trapped for too long. We only need to protect ourselves now."

Great Scholar Liu Yan's words were recognized by most people.

However, Lv Fang looked back at the four Wu'e protectors at the black mist tunnel, seeing them standing there without saying a word, just waiting for the tunnel, and another idea appeared in his heart.

Why did these protectors, who should have been protecting the King of the Wu'e Clan in the tunnel, come out, and only use force to intimidate them away, without any intention of fighting to the death?

They looked more like they were protecting the black mist tunnel from the influence of others.

And just now, only the three great protectors of the Wu'e Clan made a move, and that Jue Hufa Huan didn't move at all.

Lv Fang thought before that Jue Hufa Huan was very arrogant, thinking that three protectors were enough and they didn't need to make a move together. Now that he thought about it again, he felt that this Jue Hufa Huan seemed unable to make a move and could only stand beside the black mist tunnel.

Thinking back to when he saw Jue Hufa Huan before, it was also this one who came out to bring them in, and the other protectors were all in the cave, only Jue Hufa Huan was guarding in front of the black mist tunnel.

If Lv Fang's guess was correct, this black mist tunnel should be the special supernatural power of Jue Hufa Huan. Just now it should have been him playing tricks to trap the four Semi-Sages.

Thinking about it this way, it could also be clear why Jue Hufa Huan was abnormal.

"Everyone, come over. Can anyone set up an isolation formation? I don't think what we say needs to be heard by the Wu'e alien races."

Lv Fang proposed.

Great Scholar Liu Yan nodded, and with a wave of his hand, Haoran Zhengqi formed a fairly large barrier, covering everyone present.

After doing all this, he said confidently, "Marquis Lord Wenguan, feel free to speak. My sound-insulating barrier, let alone the four alien races beyond the Ninth Rank outside, even if a Semi-Sage is nearby, will not hear it."

Lv Fang nodded, said everything he thought and analyzed, and finally added, "I think we can try to test it, because I think the four Semi-Sages need our help."

Xue Luo Sha saw that everyone around was silent, and she said solemnly, "I unconditionally obey Marquis Lord Wenguan."

There were all kinds of things said on the field. A large part still didn't want to take risks, thinking that the four Semi-Sages were not enough, what could they do if they went?

A small part felt that what Lv Fang said was very reasonable, and they also had this idea in their hearts, so they hit it off.

For a time, they were divided into two factions, and because of different opinions, they formed a confrontation.

If they could contact the outside with sound transmission talismans, they could also ask for the opinions of the people in the rear. Because of the trap formation, they could only decide for themselves now.

Originally, it was fully commanded by Quasi-Dao Sage Taifeng, but now this one was trapped, and they were leaderless here.

Lv Fang was considered the one with the highest status among this group of people, but his strength was one of the weakest, and his words and judgment were not recognized by everyone.

Great Scholar Liu Yan, who had been silent, sighed heavily, bowed to Lv Fang, and said, "Marquis Lord Wenguan, what you said is not unreasonable, but everyone and I have some questions. If you can answer, it is not impossible to listen to you."

"Great Scholar Liu, feel free to ask." Lv Fang bowed and said calmly, "If this Marquis knows, I will definitely not hide it."

Great Scholar Liu Yan nodded and said, "First, why are you so sure that the four Semi-Sages are not just trapped, but also need our help? With those four joining forces, I really can't think of any way the Wu'e Clan can threaten them."

This question was also the confusion of many people. They thought that the four Semi-Sages were strong enough, just trapped for a short time, and they only needed to protect themselves and wait for the four Semi-Sages to break free.

Lv Fang thought for a moment and said, "Don't you think it's strange? If they just trapped the four Semi-Sages for a short time, then the Wu'e Clan could just take this opportunity to kill us all. After all, there is a trap formation here and we can't escape, they should have sensed it."

Before Great Scholar Liu Yan could speak, a Great Scholar on the side questioned, "Perhaps they don't have this strength, or they are also thinking about running away and don't dare to waste too much time with us, fearing that the four Semi-Sages will break free at any time."

Lv Fang shook his head and said, "No, no, no. Now that we can sit here well, and the four great protectors of the Wu'e Clan are still standing at the black mist tunnel, it has already proven that what you said is wrong."

"Have you ever thought about why the King of the Wu'e Clan hasn't appeared until now? Three protectors against so many of us, and they are firmly in the upper hand. If one King and four protectors make a move at the same time, do you think we have a way to survive?"

Another Great Scholar guessed, "The King of the Wu'e Clan didn't appear, could there be other reasons, for example, there are more important things to do."

What others didn't expect was that Lv Fang nodded this time and said, "I also feel that the King of the Wu'e Clan has other things to do, perhaps using some secret technique to absorb the cultivation origin of the four trapped Semi-Sages."

"Believe me, the ancient alien races have many means."

"This is not impossible, and the black mist tunnel that traps the four Semi-Sages should be controlled by that winged Wu'e protector. We just need to harass them, perhaps the four Semi-Sages can break free more easily." ===== CHAPTER 249 =====
