Chapter 168: Borrowing Strength to Fight 1
Chapter 168: Borrowing Strength to Fight 1
It took the members of the Dream-Breaking Sect half a day to finally kill all the monsters in the area.
Due to the lack of a team member, their points were gradually overtaken by Qingyunmen.
To this end, they have been working non-stop for two days and have not had a good rest for a long time.
The high-intensity combat and constant tension made them exhausted, but in order to catch up with the points, they had to grit their teeth and persevere. Fortunately, the points gap with Qingyunmen has been kept within a range that can be caught up.
"If we continue to go south, we might run into people from Tingxue Valley." Tang Xizhou pressed his brows, his voice full of fatigue.
Yan Jin was walking in front, but suddenly stopped.
The other three also stopped.
On the branch, sat Jin Cancan from the Tianping Sword Sect.
Jin Cancan leaned against the tree trunk, smiled and waved: "Hello, do you have time to talk?"
Tang Xizhou narrowed his eyes slightly and calmly observed the places around him where people might be hiding.
All the disciples in the secret realm know where Jin Cancan passed the tribulation. It is impossible that those people from the Tianping Sword Sect have not reunited yet.
"Although we are one member short, you may not win in a fight." Tang Xizhou decided to get straight to the point. After all, the remaining time was precious: "You are already so far behind in points. Instead of wasting time on us, you should hurry up and kill some monsters."
Jin Cancan shook his head slightly: "Well, you also know that our Tianping Sword Sect's points can no longer catch up with other sects, so our goal is to drag someone down with us."
Tang Xizhou's smile faded slightly: "You mean there is no room for negotiation, and you must fight to the death with our Dream Breaking Sect, right?"
He really couldn't understand how the Tianping Sword Sect managed to gather the most stubborn people in the world together at the same table?
Yan Jin really wanted to fight with Nascent Soul Stage Jin Cancan, so he spoke more fluently: "Okay, let's fight, and let the other people from your sect come out."
Jin Cancan jumped down from the tree branch swiftly. This sudden action made the four people from the Dream-Breaking Sect instantly alert, and they all put their hands on the weapons at their waists.
Facing their wary looks, Jin Cancan had no choice but to stand still and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous. We in the Tianping Sword Sect are the most reasonable."
"I came to you to discuss cooperation, of course."
Ye Shujing sneered, her tone full of disdain: "There are many hatreds between us, how can there be any possibility of cooperation?"
Jin Cancan stared straight at Ye Shujing, stroking his chin and said, "It looks like it, it really looks like it. Who do you think invented this little thing? It's really interesting."
Tang Xizhou didn't want to delve into the meaning of Jin Cancan's inexplicable words. At this moment, Qingyunmen had gained another 25 points. There was no point in wasting time with Jin Cancan.
He said coldly: "What do you want to cooperate with? Just tell me all at once."
Jin Cancan showed a wicked smile: "It is cooperation in the literal sense."
She pointed her beautiful finger at herself: "Tian Ping Jian Zong, and -"
The slender finger turned 180 degrees and pointed at the people from the Dream Breaking Sect: "Dream Breaking Sect."
"Strong alliance, growing bigger and stronger, creating greater glory!"
Tang Xizhou had a hunch that Jin Cancan was stalling for time. He was full of doubts, but he couldn't figure out the meaning of her doing so.
He suppressed his anxiety and said patiently, "What can you bring to us? What do you want us to do for you?"
Tang Xizhou stared at Jin Cancan with scrutiny and inquiry.
Jin Cancan estimated that the time was about right, so he answered Tang Xizhou cheerfully: "We can join forces with you to hunt down Qingyun Sect together."
"After eliminating the people from Qingyun Sect, your Pomeng Sect will be able to secure first place."
Tang Xizhou naturally knew that there is no free lunch in the world: "What are the terms of exchange?"
Jin Cancan replied: "Help us kick out the people from the Blade Sect."
Tang Xizhou thought about it and found that the motive was quite reasonable. If the Quren Sect was eliminated, the Tianping Sword Sect would be able to move up one place.
He chuckled and shook his head slightly: "It sounds tempting, but this deal is not fair."
"There are only three people left in the Quren Sect, so we are fully confident of eliminating them, but it will take some time."
"Although you have a full team, Qingyun Sect is not short of anyone either. You may not have a chance of winning."
"We can complete your request, but you may not be able to fulfill your promise. We, the Dream Breaking Sect, dare not accept this empty check."
Even someone like Yan Jin, who would not hesitate to take action, felt suspicious: "You can completely deal with the Quren Sect on your own, why do you have to go through us?"
It is much easier to deal with the Quren Sect than to compete with the fully-strength Qingyun Sect. Why go through so much trouble?
Jin Cancan was not at all flustered in the face of doubts, and said slowly: "Because we don't want to stop at fourth place. We, the Tianping Sword Sect, hope to show our sincerity through this cooperation, and hope to cultivate good trust between us for the next cooperation."
Tang Xizhou was somewhat tempted, but he still felt something was wrong. He remained calm and asked tentatively, "You said you wanted to show your sincerity, but we haven't seen the other people in your sect. How can we believe that you are really cooperating?"
Jin Cancan kept smiling: "It's normal not to believe it. Let's do this. Our Tianping Sword Sect will show our sincerity first."
Jin Cancan snapped his fingers, and then the news of the secret realm instantly rang out.
【Qingyun Sect, Zeng Zhi, has been eliminated.】
This sudden news made several people from the Dream-Breaking Sect secretly frightened. They looked at each other, their minds in turmoil.
Jin Cancan was discussing cooperation with them here, which meant that Tian Ping Jian Zong eliminated one person in a 4v5 match.
How did they do it in such a short time?!
Tang Xizhou was in doubt and stared at Jin Cancan closely, opening and closing the folding fan in his hand. His intuition told him that eliminating Jin Cancan right now would be the wisest choice...
But if they want to compete for first place, cooperating with the Tianping Sword Sect seems to be the easiest and wisest choice.
Jin Cancan didn't intend to give Tang Xizhou too much time to think, and decisively crushed the dust ball in his hand.
In an instant, dust filled the air, and the golden figure disappeared from the spot, leaving only her words echoing in the air: "I'll give you two hours. If you don't hear that all the members of the Blade Sect have been eliminated, we can only change our partner!"
Tang Xizhou frowned, carefully weighing the pros and cons of cooperating with the Tianping Sword Sect.
Seems... worth the risk.
On the other side, Jiang Chao and Sun Nongqiao also negotiated the terms of the transaction with Ting Xuegu.
Xianyun nodded slightly: "Okay, we can lure you a monster worth 1000 points, but we won't be responsible for killing it. You have to figure out the formation yourself."
Sun Nongqiao breathed a sigh of relief and agreed: "Of course, it's a pleasure to work with you."
Xianyun added: "Today we will first lure out a monster with 500 points. Before sunset, we must hear that at least one person from the Dream Breaking Sect has been eliminated, otherwise our cooperation will be void."
