As Long as Sincerity Was Used Well, It Worked Wonders for Screwing People Over
There are two sides to the story.
As Jing Yun spoke, a voice transmission sounded in Gu Chen's ear.
"You are a wise person, and given the current situation, I believe any wise person would know what choice to make. I advise you not to be so stubborn."
As the voice faded, a Buddhist prayer bead bracelet appeared in Jing Yun's hand.
Each bead on this bracelet was gleaming and shiny. As Jing Yun held it in her hand and turned it, an aura emanated from it.
The distance between the two sides was now not far.
The atmosphere on the field became subtle at this moment.
On Gu Chen's face, there was first disbelief, then a hint of panic, and finally some confusion.
"What has your consideration been, benefactor?"
Jing Yun paused on the lotus platform beneath her and asked with a smile.
Gu Chen took a deep breath and said:
"Senior, how about this?"
"I enjoy exchanging ideas with others in my daily life. Since this item is useful to Buddhist Order, although it should rightfully be handed over to a senior, it is, after all, quite valuable."
After a pause, Gu Chen looked at the three young monks behind Jing Yun and said:
"If any one of the three can defeat me, I will give this item along with the cultivation technique to you, senior. What do you say?"
After Gu Chen finished speaking, he looked at Jing Yun.
Jing Yun looked at Gu Chen.
This request was somewhat unexpected.
After all, unless there's someone else lurking in the shadows beside this kid, there's simply no other option at this distance.
Now, he has many options.
Alternatively, we could simply restrain this kid and force him to reveal his martial arts techniques.
Alternatively, do as he says and make him hand over the item voluntarily.
Each has its advantages and disadvantages.
The former is advantageous because it's convenient to obtain the items.
The latter focuses on the ease of obtaining the cultivation method.
If I master my soul-searching technique, I won't waste my time on this kid.
Jing Yun did not answer immediately, and Gu Chen was also watching her reaction.
At this distance, the opponent is highly likely to make a sudden move.
Being prepared prevents trouble.
"Master Jing, let me have a friendly spar with him."
At this moment, a young disciple from behind spoke up.
Its realm is clearly at the Seventh Level of the Life and Death Realm.
Jingkong didn't continue thinking about it and returned his attention to Gu Chen.
"Very well, as you say, let him have a spar with my disciple."
Jingkong spoke up.
In his eyes, Gu Chen's strength, which was only at the Sixth Level of the Life and Death Realm, was definitely no match for his disciple.
If we can win here, it would be good to get this kid to hand over the item willingly.
After all, considering how clueless and naive he was before, if he really wins, he'll probably actually do it.
Perhaps I was overthinking things.
At this moment, the young monk who had spoken earlier also prepared to move forward.
Jing Yun suddenly shook her head and said:
"Huijie, you shall handle this matter."
Huijie was the strongest in terms of both cultivation level and aura among the three young monks.
Judging from his aura alone, he had already reached the Peak of the Life and Death Realm.
Upon hearing this, Huijie nodded in agreement and then walked forward.
The three had varying strengths and weaknesses, but Jing Yun had no intention of wasting her time.
As Huijie walked forward, Jing Yun muttered incantations.
A faint golden light appeared in his eyes as he looked around at the world.
"Huijie."
Huijie walked to a suitable distance and stopped.
Gu Chen also stepped out of the flying boat and said:
Sun Long.
"Let's begin."
Huijie nodded, and a long staff appeared in his hand, releasing the full aura of the Peak of the Life and Death Realm.
In an instant, an aura swept in like a whirlwind, pressing down on Gu Chen.
Gu Chen flipped his hand and also took out a long staff, Low-Grade Heaven Rank, and held it in his hand.
His aura was noticeably weaker than Huijie's, but his imposing presence was not much less.
Huijie gestured for him to proceed, and Gu Chen accepted without hesitation.
Be careful.
As soon as the words fell, Gu Chen raised his staff and charged towards Huijie.
Not far away, Lu Changzhi's mind was focused on the scene.
To be honest, the way things have developed is quite unexpected.
It must be said that the old monk Jing Yun was indeed a bit too cautious.
They've already conducted the reconnaissance two or three times in this short period.
"They probably believed Gu Chen's nonsense."
Lu Changzhi thought about it for a moment.
Something did indeed rush out of the Soul-Forging Disc earlier.
He just wanted to kill Gu Chen.
"So cautious in everything he does, yet he believed it in this kind of thing, and now he's making such a fuss here..."
Even if you truly possess the techniques and win, refusing to give them away will still create the same problem.
But judging from the current situation, the other party has believed it.
He guessed that it was probably because Gu Chen had actually taken the item out as soon as Jing Yun exposed him.
Indeed, if sincerity is used well, it can be quite effective at deceiving people.
Meanwhile, on the field, the two sides were already locked in combat.
The battle wasn't exactly fierce, but every time their sticks collided, a loud bang was heard.
Both sides adopted a bold and aggressive style, primarily employing domineering tactics.
Lu Changzhi wasn't particularly interested in this.
After all, he was well aware of Gu Chen's strength.
The current situation is most likely a buying opportunity.
However, how much time they can gain is uncertain.
Boom boom boom!
The two engaged in a fierce battle in mid-air.
The golden light faded from Jing Yun's eyes, and her gaze turned to the two combatants.
A few breaths later, his gaze suddenly sharpened, and the hand that had been fiddling with the prayer beads stopped moving.
"Wrong."
"This kid is stalling for time."
At that moment, he suddenly realized the problem.
This kid in front of me is not as simple as he seems.
He knew his disciple's level very well; he had an advantage among disciples of the same realm, not to mention the current suppression of his realm.
Moreover, although this kid uses a stick, he is not very skilled at it. On the contrary, he is more advanced than his disciple in terms of awareness and other aspects.
Although the battle is currently evenly matched, his intuition tells him otherwise.
This kid is holding back!
"I never imagined I'd almost been fooled by this kid."
At that moment, a sense of resentment welled up in Jingkong's heart.
This kid must be a lone wolf.
If we wait for the relevant people to arrive, it will only become more difficult to obtain that Saint Rank treasure.
Don't waste time with the other person.
This thought came to mind.
Boom!
The aura of the Peak Void Transformation Realm suddenly spread out.
Jing Yun took a step forward, her speed increasing dramatically, heading straight for the two locked in fierce combat.
"Excuse me!"
As the sound rang out, Jing Yun reached out and grabbed Gu Chen.
In an instant, Buddhist light permeated the air, and a precious radiance surrounded Jing Yun's body. Her majestic appearance was accompanied by her outstretched palm, and the Buddhist light seemed to connect with the surrounding heaven and earth, drawing in one direction and binding Gu Chen.
"We've been discovered?"
Gu Chen's eyes flickered slightly, and he immediately kicked the Huijie, sending it flying far away.
Brush.
With the spear drawn, spiritual power and physical strength were pushed to their limits.
Facing Jing Yun's outstretched hand, he suddenly thrust his spear forward.
"Break!"
Sensing the Spear Intent emanating from the spear, Jing Yun narrowed her eyes.
Sure enough, his guess was right!
This kid in front of me is at least at the Creation Realm, above the Life and Death Realm!
But so what?
Instantly, Jing Yun changed her grip from a grab to a palm.
This palm strike will surely severely injure the opponent!
Boom!
Gun and palm contact.
The spear trembled violently.
At the same time, an astonishing force surged and exploded.
At the same time, Buddhist light and spiritual energy converged and poured onto Gu Chen.
Gu Chen decisively let go.
Bang!
The force descended, and the aura on the Thorn Armor fluctuated violently.
At the same time, using this force, Gu Chen retreated rapidly.
Jing Yun raised her hand, staring at the blood seeping from her palm. Her expression turned cold, and a murderous glint flashed in her eyes.
"You little brat, you're asking for death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his arm.
Instantly, the gleaming Buddhist prayer beads flew straight towards Gu Chen.
Suddenly, a lazy voice rang out out of nowhere.
"Old bald monk, is it fun to bully the weak and rely on your strength?"
