Hai Yue's Methods
Xing Qi's domineering presence amidst the mechanical shark swarm was incredibly impressive, giving a jolt to the spirits of the many Nascent Soul who were already at a disadvantage.
The Nascent Soul Cultivator were seen fending off attacks from mechanical sharks coming from all directions while gathering around Xing Qi.
Soon, the team that had been scattered by the mechanical shark regrouped behind Xing Qi.
The Nascent Soul Cultivator also learned their lesson and began to join forces to fight against the ferocious mechanical sharks. As a result, the mechanical sharks were unable to inflict effective damage on these cultivators for the time being.
As soon as Xing Qi makes a move, he will immediately step forward to eliminate the sharks that are being held back by the other cultivators.
In a short time, the number of mechanical sharks under Yi Xuan's control began to decline rapidly.
On the other hand, Hai Yue did not take Hai Qingshi far away.
After seeing Xing Qi enter the battlefield, Hai Yue actually took Hai Qingshi back to their original spot to continue watching the battle.
While he was watching Xing Qi slaughtering everyone below, he didn't notice that his eldest son behind him had a very unpleasant expression.
Hai Qingshi was initially relieved when he heard that Hai Yue was going to take him to a safe place. It seemed that his father had really started to care about him after his younger brother's death.
Little did he know that this was merely an excuse, a pretext to deceive Xing Qi.
"Give up now, huh?"
Hearing the voice of Elder Hai in his mind, Hai Qingshi nodded like a walking corpse. At this moment, Hai Qingshi looked at his father in front of him as if he were a stranger.
All the things her father had done for her in the first half of her life flashed through her mind in that instant.
From an outsider's perspective, Hai Qingshi seemed to have a new understanding of his father, and he realized how ridiculous it was that he had always wanted his father's approval since he was a child.
Perhaps in this so-called father's eyes, his younger brother is his biological son, while he himself is nothing more than a dispensable tool.
Having figured all this out, Hai Qingshi's gaze became even more resolute.
At this moment, the balance of power on the battlefield was slowly tilting towards the Sea Clan. Thanks to Xing Qi's intervention, the casualties on the Sea Clan's side were negligible.
Seeing the mechanical sharks, which could no longer cause much damage, being slaughtered by Xing Qi, Yi Xuan decisively ordered the sharks to cease their attack and maintain a distance from the group of the Sea Clan, awaiting Yi Xuan's next plan.
Xing Qi also noticed the mechanical shark's movements and understood that Yi Xuan probably had no way to deal with his group, so he withdrew the shark to reduce casualties.
After cleaving another attacking mechanical shark in two, Xing Qi discovered that no other shark remained within his attack range.
After letting out a long breath, Xing Qi realized that Hai Yue had just said he would come back to support him after settling his son in.
But now that he has completely neutralized the opponent's attack, that guy still hasn't arrived. Could he be plotting something?
However, half of the Nascent Soul experts behind Xing Qi were brought by Hai Yue.
Xing Qi didn't believe Hai Yue had the guts to set a trap for him with nearly fifty Nascent Soul experts.
Thinking of this, Xing Qi unconsciously scanned the crowd behind him with his Divine Sense, and his expression instantly became quite interesting.
Because in his Divine Sense, Hai Yue's subordinates were all at the back of the group, ready to break away at any time.
Cold sweat instantly appeared on Xing Qi's face, but before he could speak, Hai Yue, standing on high up, waved his hand down.
Half of the Nascent Soul experts who obeyed Hai Yue suddenly retreated, and then sped off towards North Wave City in a very organized manner.
At this moment, Hai Yue, who was high up, grabbed the Hai Qingshi beside him and followed the main group to leave.
At the same time, the City Lord's Token in Xing Qi's arms showed unusual activity. Xing Qi took out the City Lord's Token and found that it was vibrating wildly with no sign of stopping. Just as Xing Qi was about to inject his True Essence to check it, the City Lord's Token suddenly shattered.
Seeing this, Xing Qi Yazi furious. He vanished from his spot in a flash and reappeared in front of Hai Yue.
In an instant, the two exchanged more than ten blows. Hai Qingshi, who was being held captive, was in excruciating pain under their attacks. The aftershocks of the attacks from the Spirit Transformation stage experts were enough to give him a hard time.
While attacking, Xing Qi roared at Hai Yue, "Hai Yue, you scoundrel! You actually dared to launch a sneak attack on my East Yan City while I was away!"
Hai Yue, while blocking his way, laughed and replied, "Hahaha, blame yourself for being too greedy. Did you think the Water Cloud Stone was so easy to get? If I didn't use bait, how could I lure you, you old fox, into the trap?"
After saying that, Hai Yue suddenly struck Xing Qi with a palm strike, knocking him back.
Xing Qi had just regained his footing and was about to engage in another fight when a figure suddenly flew straight towards him and crashed into his arms.
Although the figure possessed great strength, it was unable to cause any harm to Xing Qi.
However, when Xing Qi saw the figure clearly, he was somewhat taken aback.
The man was actually Hai Yue's son, Hai Qingshi. Due to Hai Yue's exertion and the recoil from crashing into Xing Qi's arms, blood was already trickling from the corner of Hai Qingshi's mouth.
In fact, his mouth was already filled with blood, but he stubbornly swallowed it down.
Because of the Hai Qingshi, Hai Yue had already gone far away, so there was no point in Xing Qi chasing after him.
Xing Qi, who originally intended to kill Hai Qingshi to vent his anger, happened to see him swallowing blood, and in the end, he did not lower his raised hand.
He could only shake his head helplessly and say to Hai Qingshi, "Your father is truly ruthless!"
Yi Xuan witnessed the entire incident from a distance, but the infighting among the other side did not affect him.
When Xing Qi turned around, he realized that just as he was fighting Hai Yue, Yi Xuan had once again ordered the mechanical sharks to surround his Nascent Soul cultivators.
Without Xing Qi, a powerful expert, a group of Nascent Soul Cultivator were no different from a flock of sheep in Yi Xuan's eyes.
The Nascent Soul Cultivator, surrounded by numerous sharks, dared not make a move. After all, the mechanical sharks' previous record was undeniable. Now that they had lost half of their teammates, they knew they were no match for the sharks.
In just one minute, both Xing Qi and Hai Qingshi experienced the ultimate reversal of their lives.
He went from being the lord of the Sea Clan city to being completely alone, with a group of subordinates waiting for Yi Xuan to rescue them.
Another was abandoned by his own father to the enemy, seemingly like trash.
Looking at the two people in the distance, Yi Xuan felt that their current character settings were exactly like the protagonist settings of a wish-fulfillment novel.
The beginning of this wish-fulfillment story is already satisfying; once the cheat system is implemented, the protagonist will definitely have the potential to become an emperor.
Unfortunately, Yi Xuan wouldn't give them that chance.
