Wife, you didn't really drug me, did you?

Chapter 641 That bastard, all he does is make empty promises.
Upon arriving at the central area, Chen Jie looked around and saw tall trees everywhere. However, in the very center was a circular valley that resembled a giant arena. "This is quite a place," he thought, "suitable as a final resting place for some people."

As Chen Jie thought this through, he had already made up his mind. Looking around, he thought, "This is the place."

boom!
With a loud bang, Chen Jie landed directly in the center area. He stood there looking around, his eyes scanning the surroundings, thinking, "This is fine. This is a good burial site."

With that thought in mind, Chen Jie stood in the very center, arms crossed, eyes closed, waiting for the prey to arrive.

At this moment, the group of people who had been following Chen Jie, consisting of those who had reached the second or third level of the Fusion God realm, had gathered around him. They stopped there, not daring to move forward. Chen Jie had adopted a posture of being able to hold off ten thousand men, which made them feel uneasy. Therefore, they all stopped and dared not advance.

"How to do?"

The group stopped nearby and asked what was on their minds. At that moment, a member of the team spoke up: "This person is here, looking very confident. We can't rush in rashly, or the consequences will be unpredictable. I think we should be more cautious and wait for the two elders to arrive before discussing anything else."

Upon hearing this, the person next to him immediately said, "That's right, let's wait for the ancestor to come. They benefit the most from this dragon vein. They can't let us be the cannon fodder in everything. Don't you think so?"

"That's true. The greatest benefit belongs to the two ancestors, and the greatest responsibility also belongs to the two ancestors. It's fine for us to quietly cheer from the sidelines, but we really think of ourselves as the main force."

"Exactly, exactly, anyone who goes in at this time would be a fool!"

Thinking this, everyone stopped in their tracks. Those who had reached their level were not fools; they naturally knew the depth of the situation. How could someone with a reputation capable of killing a fourth-level Molten God like Boluo, and who could use a scheme to eliminate two second-level Molten Gods like Madam Zhao without getting hurt?

If you were to provoke such a troublemaker, you might end up losing your life. They're not stupid; you absolutely can't do something like that.

Thinking it over, everyone waited there, each one unhurried and admiring the scenery.

Meanwhile, not far away, there was another group of people hiding there. That's right, it was the third force here, the small alliance of the third-level Molten God, led by Qi Wang Li Siqi and Damoba. They were originally looking for their own opportunities in the forest, but on the way, they suddenly saw a group of second-level Molten Gods forming a group and began to surround Chen Jiu Si throughout the Dragon Vein.

Upon hearing about the commotion, Li Siqi and Damoba couldn't resist any longer and organized a group of people to come and watch the excitement. They hid in a slightly distant spot and observed the commotion.

At that moment, in the woods, Damoba looked at Li Siqi and said, "There's something strange about this Chen Jiu Si!"

Upon hearing this, Li Siqi turned to look at Damoba and said, "Strange? What's so strange about that?"

Damopa said, "So many people have surrounded him, yet he acts as if nothing happened. Isn't that strange?"

Upon hearing this, Li Siqi said, "Yes, it is indeed strange, but since it was Chen Jiu Si who did it, it's not surprising. This isn't the first time I've dealt with this person. He really likes to create a mystery, and sometimes he disguises things that are not in his favor as things that are in his favor. He's very good at fooling people."

Damoba said, “You’re right. Chen Jiusi is indeed cunning. But you should never underestimate his wisdom. I’ve suffered at his hands before. Sometimes you think he’s bluffing, but he might not be. Sometimes you think he’s not bluffing, but he might be.”

"What is real may appear illusory, and what is illusory may appear real; it is very difficult to predict."

After hearing this, Damoba looked at Li Siqi and said, "What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Li Siqi exclaimed, "What?"

"Do you think Chen Jiu Si is doing this to sit and wait for death, or is he bluffing to scare these people away?"

Damoba looked at Li Siqi and asked, his eyes filled with inquiry as he looked at Chen Jie, who was standing there with his arms crossed.

Upon hearing this, Li Siqi asked, "Do you think there's any way in the world for someone to defeat someone two levels higher than themselves twice?"

Damopa shook his head and said, "No, at least not in the human world."

Li Siqi said, "Yes, this is not something that should exist in the human world. If Chen Jie killed Boluo last time by using a technique that burns out all potential, such as the long-lost Heavenly Demon Disintegration Technique, which could barely achieve the level of killing Boluo, then what way could he possibly have to resist the two fourth-level Fusion Gods this time?"

"Moreover, this time it's two, not one, making it much more difficult than facing Bolu alone. Let's not even talk about whether there's a technique in the world that can unleash two attacks in a row. Even if there is, could he fight two against one?"

"These two are both seasoned veterans. Tong Wei of the Whale Shark Gang once swept through the entire Jiangnan region and was known as the number one powerhouse in Jiangnan!"

"That Old Demon Tang is even more extraordinary. He is known as the Living Yama. Almost no one who fights him survives. These two are already the pinnacle of humanity. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of Master Zhang, these two would probably have dominated half of the country long ago."

"It's just a pity that they ran into the unparalleled Taoist Master Zhang. In front of him, these two were as weak as chickens. It's truly pitiful, tragic, and lamentable."

Li Siqi shook his head, his face filled with an indescribable feeling. Because of Master Zhang, so many talented people in the world no longer dared to call themselves strong. It was truly pitiful.

If it weren't for Master Zhang, which of these people wouldn't have left a great name in the martial arts world? It's just that now many of them can only hide and become hermit masters. In fact, who wants to live in seclusion? Isn't it all because of that old Taoist Zhang that they are forced to?
Is the "Jiazi Demon Extermination" a joke? Sixty years of killing, a full sixty years!
Thinking of this, Li Siqi sighed. In this era, anyone who mentions the name Zhang Zhenren will feel a jolt in their heart. He is an insurmountable mountain!

Seeing Li Siqi stunned by that name, Damoba slowly spoke up: "Master Zhang is indeed terrifyingly strong, but he is also restrained by my master. However, there are two old demons here who are at the fourth level of the Fusion God realm. Who should restrain them?"

"What exactly is Chen Jiu Si trying to do by putting on this show here?"

Hearing this, Li Siqi said, "Anyway, my opinion is that he did this to bluff. There is no way in this world for someone to exert far more strength than they are capable of twice, otherwise the world would have been in chaos long ago!"

Damoba said, "Well, Your Highness Qi, although I agree with your idea, there are some things I still want to say. This Chen Jiu Si is often not something that can be judged by common sense. He is very different."

Li Siqi said, "Even if we can't judge him by common sense, he is still within the mortal realm, and there should still be some reason to him, right?"

"Was Zhang Sanfeng reasonable?"

Suddenly, Damoba uttered a name that instantly stunned Li Siqi, who fell silent. If you were to ask who the most unreasonable person in the world is, it would be none other than Zhang Zhenren of Wudang. He is the most unreasonable person in the world.

How could he be so ridiculously strong? He was all alone, yet he was able to achieve the terrifying feat of vanquishing demons over sixty years. There was almost no one in the world who could rival him; he alone could fight against the entire world.

Some say his master, the Living Buddha Phagpa, is one of the most powerful figures in the world, capable of rivaling Zhang Zhenren. However, his master once said that Zhang Zhenren had long surpassed him. Although they were both at the terrestrial immortal realm, if they were to actually fight, his master had no confidence in defeating Zhang Zhenren, and even the possibility of forcing him to a draw was slim. The best outcome would be a narrow defeat, forcing Zhang Zhenren to pay a price, perhaps an unacceptable one, but the price he might pay was his life.

Therefore, the Living Buddha is sometimes very cautious in his actions. He is unwilling to easily break the agreement he made with Master Zhang. The reason is that he is in a weaker position compared to Master Zhang, which is why he is so cautious in his actions.

After listening to Damoba's words, Li Siqi thought for a moment and then said, "Damoba, no matter how strong Chen Jiu Si is, he can't compare to Zhang Zhenren, so your thinking is still too extreme."

Damoba nodded and said, "Yes, I admit that I may have been too extreme. No matter how powerful Chen Jiu Si is, how can he be compared to Zhang Zhenren? If another Zhang Zhenren appears among the Han people, I think we Mulan people should get out of the Central Plains as soon as possible and go to the northern grasslands to graze."

Li Siqi said, "Don't worry, as long as we can get the opportunity this time, we can try to reach the fourth level of the Fusion God Realm. At that time, our Great Qian will have one or two more people at the fourth level of the Fusion God Realm, and the pressure on the Living Buddha will not be so great!"

Damopa nodded, and was about to say something more when he suddenly spoke up: "They've arrived."

Upon hearing this, Li Siqi instantly realized what was happening and turned to look in the direction of the voice. He then saw two people flying rapidly towards him from the distant woods, surrounded by a group of henchmen. Their speed was extremely fast.

brush brush...

In the blink of an eye, they flew close by. Li Siqi and Damoba quickly dodged. The two saw Li Siqi and Damoba, but only glanced at them sideways without investigating further. They then accelerated and disappeared from sight.

The two disappeared in a flash, arriving at the outer edge of the central area in a short time. They saw Chen Jiu Si standing there with his arms crossed, seemingly glaring at them. The two stopped and stood on a large tree, each on a branch, scrutinizing Chen Jie.

Chen Jiu Si's calm and composed demeanor made the two of them uneasy. What was going on?

With these thoughts in mind, the two men narrowed their eyes and scrutinized Chen Jiu Si.

"Brother Tang, what does Chen Jiu Si's behavior mean? He seems unfazed by praise or criticism. Does he really have some tricks up his sleeve, or is he just bluffing and putting on an empty city ploy for us?"

Tong Wei looked at Tang Bao and asked, and Tang Bao squinted at Chen Jie and said, "If it is the Empty City Stratagem, then Chen Jiu Si is really something. So many eyes are on him, yet he can remain so calm and composed. Not an ordinary person can do that."

Thinking this, Tong Wei said, "Do you think he's bluffing, putting on an empty city ploy?"

Tang Bao said, "You don't actually think he has some trump card up his sleeve and is just trying to lure us in, do you?"

Upon hearing this, Tong Wei laughed loudly and said, "Hahaha, a big move? What big move? If he had a big move, he would have used it long ago. He had to wait until now, when we forced him into a corner, before he used it."

"Fine, even if we back down a thousand steps, if Chen Jiu Si really has some amazing move, do you think we two fourth-level Fusion Gods are afraid of him?"

Tang Bao said, "Brother Tong is quite right. Shall we go down?"

Upon hearing this, Tong Wei said, "No, no, although there's only a one in a thousand chance that he still has cards to play, we still can't be too careful. Why don't we give him a try?"

"How to try?"

Tong Wei said, "Send two second-stage Fusion Gods down to see how deep he is."

Tang Bao said, "That makes sense."

Then Tong Wei said to Tang Bao, "Choose two people."

Tang Bao thought for a moment and said, "Since this is to scout ahead, we can't have any selfish motives. How about we each take one?"

"One person should choose one person."

At this moment, Tang Bao and Tong Wei turned around and looked at the people behind them, their eyes full of probing. Those who had pledged allegiance to the two men all lowered their heads, cursing the two old men in their hearts. "If you're afraid of death, then make us scout ahead. Otherwise, we might really lose our lives!"

If we lose our lives while you reap the greatest benefits, where else in the world can you find such a good deal?

With this in mind, everyone had already cursed the two men's ancestors for eighteen generations.

Meanwhile, Tang Bao and Tong Wei were also thinking about who to send. This person couldn't be too distant from them, otherwise they would be seen as sending someone to be used as cannon fodder, which would not be good for their image as the boss.

Secondly, you can't choose one of your true core subordinates. Who would use their most core subordinate as cannon fodder?

So this person needs to be neither too close nor too distant, so that no one can find fault with them.

Thinking this, the two men's eyes swept over their many underlings, who lowered their heads and refused to meet their gazes. At that moment, it felt like waking up in the morning and being randomly selected by the teacher to check how well they had memorized yesterday's text.

After a long time, the two finally chose two people to come out.

"Mr. Beijiang".

"Old Man of Nanyu".

"You two go forward and test his strength. Remember, you must find out his true power. Don't let him hide anything. Do you understand?"

"Yes, gentlemen. If this matter succeeds, you will be credited with the greatest contribution, and we will not forget you."

Tang Bao and Tong Wei gave the two men a task and promised them a large reward.

The two unlucky guys looked miserable, thinking to themselves, "They really think we're cannon fodder!"
