Chapter 899
Feng Xiao Xiao glanced at Qin Qi and the other two, "Do the three of you have any objections?"
Although Wei Ling’Er and Zhang Ming Tong weren’t all that willing deep down.
But when dealing with this Elite Demon, they didn’t have any better solutions.
Now that Murong Chan had brought it up, they naturally had no choice but to comply obediently.
And Qin Qi was thoughtful but ultimately voiced no objection, "As long as we can slay this Evil Demon, I naturally have no objections!"
Upon hearing Qin Qi’s agreement, a sinister coldness quickly flashed across Murong Chan’s expression.
Getting Qin Qi to agree was exactly what he wanted.
As long as Qin Qi agreed.
He was confident he could ensure that Qin Qi would unknowingly meet his end on this battlefield!
"This Murong Chan probably harbors bad intentions towards you!" said a mysterious woman, "Clearly at odds during the day, yet by night, nothing has changed."
"Haha, for someone as arrogantly prideful as him, that’s impossible!"
"Unless he’s plotting something targeted."
Qin Qi replied lazily, "Just as I thought, though him being deceptive is nothing compared to my own plans!"
"No worries, let whatever comes be confronted!"
The mysterious woman responded slowly, "As long as you’re aware of what’s happening!"
Wind Xiao Xiao spoke, "In that case, let Nephew Murong arrange and command. The three of you also comply with Nephew Murong’s instructions!"
The three of them nodded in agreement.
A sense of proud satisfaction appeared on Murong Chan’s face.
He looked down at the Elite Demon, "When I give the signal, the three of you should charge down with me!"
"Make sure to follow my orders, or if something goes wrong with the Elite Demon, don’t blame me for reporting to City Lord Feng!"
With these words.
The atmosphere gradually became silent and composed.
Wind Xiao Xiao’s face looked exceptionally grim.
After all, every minute they waited, the Elite Demon continued its massacre on the battlefield for another minute!
However, she couldn’t interrupt Murong Chan and could only wait quietly for him!
And so, a few minutes passed.
Murong Chan suddenly shouted, "Now, this distance is optimal for us to surround the Elite Demon as quickly as possible!"
"Move out!"
With Murong Chan’s command,
the four swiftly took action.
Murong Chan was indeed correct. At this moment, the Elite Demon was only a few hundred meters from the city wall.
After descending, the four practically surrounded the Elite Demon at the fastest pace.
However, the Elite Demon clearly sensed the presence of Qin Qi and the others through its aura.
Upon closer inspection, its fangs were noticeably larger than those of ordinary demons.
When it noticed the four, it waved a large hand, and a wave of black, torrent-like Evil Qi surged toward them instantly.
It was just the first wave of the evil force’s attack.
That propelled Qin Qi and the others to swiftly utilize their techniques.
"Hmm?"
Qin Qi hesitated slightly, "Even Celestial Spirit True Qi can’t erode this layer of Evil Qi immediately? Moreover, if I hadn’t channeled more Mana, this Evil Qi might have corroded my Celestial Spirit True Qi!"
Wei Ling’Er and Zhang Ming Tong weren’t as fortunate.
Amid the Evil Qi’s assault, both appeared quite flustered in their responses.
In the end, they each took out a treasure from their robes, only then managing to barely dispel the Evil Qi.
As for Murong Chan, it was unclear how he dispelled the Evil Qi.
And in his hand, somehow, there was now a rope wrapped with rolling lightning.
"Is this the Thunder Jiao Rope?" Qin Qi thought silently.
Murong Chan loosened his neck and transmitted, "The three of you, stand at the southeastern and western positions. I’ll hold the northern position. Once I deploy the Thunder Jiao Rope, you should quickly infuse your Mana into it!"
"Otherwise, the Thunder Jiao Rope can’t be activated, it won’t bind the Elite Demon, and we won’t get another chance like this!"
Wei Ling’Er and Zhang Ming Tong felt the power of the demon and didn’t dare delay, quickly taking their positions.
Qin Qi followed suit promptly.
"Go!"
Murong Chan promptly spread out the Thunder Jiao Rope.
The rope moved so fast that the moment it was deployed, it had already bound the Elite Demon, which was several meters tall, at a speed beyond the eye’s capability to catch.
With the crackling and flashing of lightning overhead,
Murong Chan shouted, "What are you waiting for, hurry and channel your Mana into the Thunder Jiao Rope!"
Qin Qi and the others had no choice but to comply, directing their Mana into it.
"This Thunder Jiao Rope is truly formidable," Qin Qi marveled in amazement, "It bound the Elite Demon instantly!"
The mysterious woman chuckled, "Of course, this is an Innate Spiritual Treasure. Such items are priceless!"
"And as Wind Xiao Xiao said, Murong Chan can’t alone perform the Thunder Jiao Rope; the four of you must work together!"
Qin Qi drew a sharp breath, marveling inwardly how comparing one to others could be bothersome.
Despite killing so many demons, he barely exchanged for a damaged Spiritual Treasure for the mysterious woman.
Whereas with Murong Chan’s wealth, he possessed a complete Spiritual Treasure.
"The Mana consumption is too rapid..." Qin Qi’s heart trembled, "Even though my Mana exceeds my peers, in such a short while, I’ve used more than ten percent."
"This is with the collective strength of the four; if I were alone, I’d be exhausted instantly!"
Apparently, despite a Spiritual Treasure’s utility, the cost is high too.
Moreover, one must remain vigilant.
Murong Chan has meticulously arranged the plan, who’s to say he hasn’t embedded secret strategies and tactics within it!
Wei Ling’Er shouted, "Murong Chan, what are you waiting for! Since you’ve already bound the demon, why not finish it?"
"If we delay any longer, we won’t sustain the Mana!"
Murong Chan, however, was calm and collected, "No rush. The Thunder Jiao Rope should first drain some of the demon’s strength. Don’t worry, the demon will succumb before you do!"
Wei Ling’Er’s expression was pained, yet she continued to pour in Mana.
Murong Chan steadied Wei Ling’Er and Zhang Ming Tong glancing deliberately now and again at Qin Qi.
"This kid’s Mana is quite strong!"
"Hmph, let’s see how long you can power the Thunder Jiao Rope!"
"It’s better if you hold out longer; it’ll help weaken the Elite Demon more!"
At this point, Qin Qi’s Mana had decreased by more than thirty percent.
Soon he came to a realization, "Wait, if I hadn’t cultivated the Source Celestial Scripture, surely, my Mana would have been completely depleted by now!"
"Even though Wei Ling’Er and Zhang Ming Tong have higher cultivation, their Mana wouldn’t vastly exceed mine."
"But seeing them, although somewhat drained, it seems they can continue for quite some time..."
Contemplating this,
Qin Qi suddenly realized something and discreetly activated the Profound Pure Spirit Eye.
What he saw was troubling.
The Thunder Jiao Rope was drawing significantly more Mana from him than from Wei Ling’Er and Zhang Ming Tong!
"So that’s it!"
Qin Qi’s expression darkened, "This Thunder Jiao Rope is Murong Chan’s treasure; it seems he’s deliberately controlling it to disproportionately sap my Mana, aiming to drain me completely!"
"Using my hand to weaken the Elite Demon, then letting the Elite Demon kill me next, so he can reap the benefits!"
"Murong Chan, you certainly are a cunning schemer..."
