Lu Mingfei hesitated. There were too many of them, and Dou Mei was the one who could easily counter him. This was difficult. If only he had something...

He suddenly remembered something, turned to look at Yuan Tao, and reached out his hand.

Yuan Tao looked at Lu Mingfei with a puzzled expression. He was already a prisoner, so what was he supposed to do?

"Magic artifacts, those two magic artifacts you have, the Nine Dragon Sons and the magic artifact that can defend against my Yang Five Thunders." Lu Mingfei was very expectant.

"..." Yuan Tao was so focused on whether Lu Mingfei would suddenly attack Han Dan'er that she forgot about the magical artifact she was carrying.

This actually benefited Lu Mingfei.

A hearty laugh rang out, and Lu Jin said:

"Hahaha, I finally figured out why you're siding with outsiders, Old Master. Lu Mingfei and Zhang Chulan are both cunning, and Lingyu can't possibly defeat them."

"Huh, Lu Mingfei is already here, why hasn't Lingyu arrived yet?" Lu Jin asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Who knows? Maybe they got bogged down in trivial matters," the old master replied without changing his expression.

Yuan Tao hesitated for a moment.

Lu Mingfei smiled and said:

"You're just an ordinary person now, and you won't need this anymore. Giving it to the company is the same as giving it to me. It's just that it's being passed through my hands. Maybe I'll go easy on you when I encounter that idiot in the future."

Yuan Tao wished she could devour Lu Mingfei. She took out her broken Nine Dragons and a protective artifact that could block all malicious attacks—a pink toy watch—with great displeasure.

Lu Mingfei's hand stopped in mid-air, his gaze falling on the pink toy watch, moving back and forth between Yuan Tao's body and the watch.

Can old men have a girlish heart?

"This was made by Han Dan'er!" Yuan Tao explained with a long face.

Chapter 86: Capturing the "Mentor"

Lu Mingfei asked Yuan Tao to teach him how to activate the two magical artifacts.

The nine dragons were severely damaged and difficult to work with, so we decided to give up.

Turning our attention to another magical artifact, a toy watch.

As long as the flow of Qi is maintained, the defensive barrier can be kept open. Once attacked, it can be activated immediately to isolate the attack. It is a passively triggered defensive artifact.

Judging from the fact that he was able to break through the defense using the Twelve Labors Formation, the defense still has certain drawbacks.

Lu Mingfei placed the toy watch in a deep pocket to ensure it wouldn't fall out during the fight, and steadily transmitted his Qi.

It turns out that being shameless is really convenient.

Not only did they acquire two magical artifacts, but they also learned how to use them. Although they didn't manage to curry favor with the powerful figure behind them, these gains were still satisfying.

Having experienced the convenience of shamelessness, he didn't know if he could ever go back.

They were searching for the direction where Lei Yanpao and Gao Ning had left.

A few leaps between the treetops were enough to detect traces of the Thunder Smoke Cannon.

Knowing that Dou Mei's abilities had a strong restraining effect on him, he did not approach her rashly.

It stopped on a treetop not far away.

The group of people who were walking suddenly stopped, seemingly having a conversation, but he couldn't hear them clearly because they were too far away.

Lu Mingfei used the Twelve Labors Formation on himself.

Since Dou Mei can erode willpower and make people weak, he can let himself enter a state of anger to enhance his fighting spirit. If used well, this is a buff; if used poorly, it is a debuff.

His breathing gradually became heavy, and his face began to flush red—anger, but not irrational anger. It was the kind of anger that made him want to clear the game without taking any damage, but if he got hurt, then neither of them would survive.

The fighting spirit is incredibly high; fighting is exhilarating!

His eyes were bloodshot, and his heart was pounding as he looked at the group of people standing not far away.

"Wait a minute! Dou Mei, Gao Ning... one is missing, where's Shen Chong?!"

Lu Mingfei subconsciously used the Yang Five Thunder Technique to empower himself and move away from the original spot.

The next second, something unexpected happened. The tree trunk, as thick as a bucket, was smashed in half and fell straight down onto the lower trees.

The attacker's appearance was revealed; it was Shen Chong, who wore glasses and looked refined. His fist was still wrapped in Qi, and he pushed up his glasses with his other hand, looking somewhat disappointed, as if complaining about his earlier mistake.

Lu Mingfei kept a close watch on Dou Mei's whereabouts and Lei Yanpao's location, as being surrounded by three people at once would be disastrous.

As long as he is careful not to let Dou Mei's "poison powder" be covered, the Twelve Labors Formation has its own resistance. In reality, the only opponent he really needs to fight is Shen Chong.

With the defensive magic artifact he obtained from Yuan Tao, he has a relatively high chance of winning the Thunder Smoke Cannon.

Lei Yanpao, still squinting under the tree, gazed worriedly at Lu Mingfei not far away. "It seems that Benefactor Yuan has failed."

"As a genius, it's most fitting for him to perish here." Dou Mei's voice remained loving as she looked at Lu Mingfei with great kindness. Her ability had already been quietly activated, and a "poisonous powder" that could soothe people's hearts drifted towards Lu Mingfei.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashing white light shot down from above, heading straight for Dou Mei's position.

Dou Mei, who was not skilled in physical combat, was about to be struck by the palm lightning after the "poison powder" she had just scattered was blasted away.

A tall, slightly thin figure stood in front of Dou Mei, taking the brunt of the attack, leaving half of his arm charred black.

Dou Mei was slightly taken aback when she saw the tall figure in front of her.

"My abilities aren't very useful to that guy." Lei Yanpao channeled his Qi into the area on his arm where the palm lightning had burned, gritting his teeth in pain.

He sensed killing intent, a complex killing intent mixed with other emotions, like a bucket of paint mixed together without any mixing.

The source of the murderous intent was Lu Mingfei, who had just finished unleashing the Palm Thunder and then hid in the woods.

"Shen Chong! Let's go, don't get entangled with him, the Old Celestial Master is nearby!" Lei Yanpao Gao Ning knew that this was not the best time to deal with the enemy.

Shen Chong quickly leaped down from the treetop and arrived beside the other two. "Has Xia He not returned yet?"

"..."

"..."

The two remained silent; the answer was obvious.

A figure shrouded in white light flashed by.

A thunderous roar erupted as Yang Wulei, like a giant python, blocked the path in front of the three, relentlessly continuing.

Lu Mingfei's voice came from the woods.

"Gentlemen, you don't want to be caught by my advisor, do you?"

He finished speaking and then moved to another place.

"My only target is one person, my 'mentor' Lei Yanpao Gao Ning. As his 'disciple', I joined Na Du Tong and became a regular member of the army, so naturally I want to give my 'master' a hand and help him get out of his suffering."

"As for the root of trouble, Shen Chong, and the poisoner Dou Mei, whether you stay or leave is up to you."

Shen Chong and Dou Mei looked at Lei Yanpao with confusion.

"Don't believe his nonsense, he's trying to sow discord among us." Lei Yanpao kept his eyes fixed on Lu Mingfei's location.

"So what if it is? So what if it isn't?"

Lu Mingfei stepped forward and stood behind the Yang Wulei Giant Python, his hands in his pockets as he watched the three of them from afar.

"I am the second Yang Five Thunder user among the younger generation. Who do you think passed on this Yang Five Thunder technique to me?"

Lu Mingfei left his sentence unfinished, letting them guess, but he didn't say the part that was copied from Zhang Chulan.

"Are you two going to stay with me, or leave on your own?"

Lu Mingfei could clearly sense that Lei Yanpao was still relentlessly using the Twelve Labors Formation on him. Fortunately, he had previously focused on anger and fighting spirit, so Lei Yanpao could not affect him in the short term.

The fact that Dou Mei's poison powder could be dispersed by Yang Wu's lightning was an unexpected bonus.

He actually knew the Celestial Master wouldn't come, but the other side didn't know.

The main strategy is to exploit information asymmetry to put psychological pressure on the other side. The Old Master is like a boulder pressing down on everyone on the other side, and no one knows when it will fall.

The longer the delay goes on, the greater the psychological pressure on the three of them will be, and the more nervous they will become.

They may face being wiped out by the Old Master.

They then had one more option: hand over someone and leave.

He can ramble on without even thinking, and he's becoming more and more impressed with himself.

In Lu Mingfei's plan, he considered two possibilities: one was relatively easy, though unlikely to be achieved; the other was more difficult...

Although the three were successfully threatened by Lu Mingfei's words, they did not show it, but instead exchanged glances.

They couldn't be sure if Lu Mingfei's words were true or false, but they were certain that it was better to believe them than not.

Shen Chong and Dou Mei then realized what Lei Yanpao was hiding.

The abilities he cultivated for decades have appeared in a junior, and this junior has even joined Na Du Tong. Is he trying to squeeze both sides out of him, or is there another motive?

This will only worsen Lei Yanpao's reputation within the Quanxing sect.

"Whether we can survive alone is a question; at least we have a better chance of survival if we act together," Shen Chong said, adjusting his glasses.

Amidst the thunderous roar of Yang Wulei, Lu Mingfei only vaguely understood the whispers of the group, but he knew they had chosen to confront them head-on.

The giant python of Yang Wu Lei, which was blocking the two groups, was broken in half. Shen Chong's body erupted with bright red Qi, and he broke through Yang Wu Lei's attack with the help of the massive amount of Qi.

In an instant, he arrived in front of Lu Mingfei and swung his fist, which was covered in Dou Mei's "poison powder," at Lu Mingfei.

Shen Chong witnessed Dou Mei's "poison powder" landing on Lu Mingfei, and was overjoyed. He then threw a powerful punch at Lu Mingfei's chest.

when!

The deafening clang of metal striking metal reverberated instantly, the sound waves spreading outwards.

His iron fist did not harm Lu Mingfei in the slightest. A faint light emanated from his body, firmly blocking the punch from his body.

"Yuan Tao's magical artifact?!" Shen Chong's eyes widened, his pupils trembling violently.

Could it be that Yuan Tao has already been killed by Lu Mingfei, who has also taken the magical artifact for his own use?

Shen Chong was shocked. He never expected that Lu Mingfei would have such strength. His will to fight back weakened considerably, and he had a slight thought of retreating.

Lu Mingfei felt his Qi being rapidly drawn away by the toy watch in his pocket.

It blocked Shen Chong's fist, but it couldn't stop something else.
