Yi Han wasn't in a rush to charge forward; instead, he and Wang Chong continued to observe the battle.
As Wang Chong had said, one of the three was not adept at fighting, one insidiously harassed from the sidelines, and only one was fiercely battling.
After being ganged up on for a while, the Purple Scaled Python flew into a rage, abruptly raising its head and spitting three streams of venom at the trio.
Immediately afterward, it took advantage of the situation, using its head to slam into the woman.
"Ah!" the woman exclaimed, her reaction slow, and her figure flew back several feet.
The Purple Scaled Python immediately rushed towards the woman, seemingly wanting to eliminate her first.
The man with the saber charged forward, but was intimidated by the Purple Scaled Python's sudden turn and didn't dare approach.
The upright man with the sword shouted loudly and unhesitatingly rushed forward, blocking the woman and engaging in a head-on clash with the Purple Scaled Python.
"Boom!"
With a loud crash, the upright man was knocked back several steps, a trace of blood溢出ing from the corner of his mouth, but he still stubbornly stood in front of the woman, his eyes firm and showing no intention of retreating.
A trace of admiration flashed in Yi Han's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by indifference.
"This man is a rare example of uprightness, but it's a pity that in this Cloud Stream Sect forest, upright people don't deserve to live long," Yi Han sighed inwardly, then mused:
"However, if I can use his uprightness, it might add a few points of certainty to the plan Wang Chong and I have."
Yi Han glanced at Wang Chong, noticing the slight upturn of the corner of his mouth, clearly indicating that he, too, was scheming something.
Yi Han said in a low voice, "Brother Wang, let's go. Judging by the situation, if we don't take action, that man might be in danger, which would be detrimental to our plan."
"Hmm?" As soon as Yi Han finished speaking, he saw the saber-wielding man stop, a sneer on his face. Yi Han couldn't help but feel疑惑:
"This man is also at the first level of Qi Refining. Could it be that he's conserving his strength, waiting for the other two to be seriously injured before dealing with the Purple Scaled Python alone?"
Yi Han planned to observe for a while longer, first to see the saber-wielding man's true strength, and also to allow the three to develop more resentment, which would be useful for future manipulation.
Wang Chong smiled, "Brother Yi, wait a little longer. Look at the saber-wielding man's actions. He seems to be deliberately stalling. Could it be that he's plotting something?"
Yi Han's face showed surprise, "Brother Wang is indeed敏锐. Since that's the case, we might as well observe for a while longer and see what tricks they're playing."
The two continued to lurk, and Yi Han whispered to Wang Chong about subsequent cooperation strategies.
At this moment, the woman's jade face contained煞气, and she flipped over and stood up, joining the sword-wielding man in resisting the Purple Scaled Python.
A green light flashed in the Purple Scaled Python's eyes, like ghostly flames, and it suddenly let out a hiss.
Immediately afterward, its snake body twisted violently, actually pouncing towards the saber-wielding man.
The saber-wielding man's expression changed drastically; he obviously hadn't expected the Purple Scaled Python to suddenly change targets.
In haste, he wielded his saber to resist, but was震得 back by the snake's enormous force.
A cold glint flashed in Yi Han's eyes, and he said in a low voice, "Brother Wang, it seems this Purple Scaled Python isn't stupid either, specifically targeting those who are alone, wanting to eliminate future threats."
Wang Chong chuckled, "Interesting. In that case, we might as well wait a little longer and see how this good show ends."
Yi Han and the other decided to continue watching the show.
In the blink of an eye, the saber-wielding man was already in deep danger. His face was twisted, and he shouted urgently, "Jiang Kai, help me!"
The sword-wielding man named Jiang Kai snorted coldly and unhesitatingly rushed forward to支援.
He shouted loudly, and his sword light was like a虹, directly刺ing at the Purple Scaled Python's seven 寸.
The Purple Scaled Python felt pain, and its snake body twisted madly, with venom splashing everywhere, injuring the two of them, and the scene was一时混乱不堪.
Seeing this, Yi Han ridiculed himself in his heart, "It seems this person is just a庸人 with a narrow mind and no strategy. I overestimated him."
He said in a low voice, "Brother Wang, the time has come. If we don't take action, I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on."
A fierce glint flashed in Wang Chong's eyes, "Alright, Brother Yi, let's go!"
With that, the two leaped out from behind the土坡 and疾驰 towards the battlefield.
"Don't panic, the three of you! We're here to help!" Wang Chong shouted.
Yi Han and the other immediately joined the battle.
Jiang Kai got a chance to catch his breath and thanked loudly, "Thank you both for your help, I, Jiang Kai, will definitely remember this kindness."
The saber-wielding man, however, vigilantly猜疑道, "Why did you two suddenly appear? Could it be that you were waiting for us to be injured before coming out to snatch the spoils?"
Hearing this, Yi Han thought, "You guessed one tenth of it correctly."
"We were passing by and helping out. The妖兽精血 naturally belongs to the one who killed it!" Wang Chong's voice was决然, and he asked Yi Han, "Isn't that right, Brother Yi?"
Yi Han was very警惕, knowing that the other party was definitely scheming again.
However, now was not the time to argue. Yi Han ignored him and only focused on fighting the enemy together.
Having fought once before, Yi Han already knew quite a bit about the Purple Scaled Python, and he seemed particularly composed in this battle.
The woman beside him娇喝ed and also冲入ed the battlefield, jointly圍殺ing the Purple Scaled Python.
The Purple Scaled Python retreated repeatedly, its scales constantly breaking open, its body being划伤ed, and blood汩汩ing.
It spat out venom again, but its power was far less than before. Its spiritual power was gradually drying up, and its体力 was becoming increasingly不支.
Before long, Yi Han and Wang Chong cooperated tacitly, their刀剑齐出ing, and they 必殺ed the Purple Scaled Python with one blow.
The Purple Scaled Python crashed to the ground, its庞大 body twitching a few times before becoming silent.
However, the moment the battle ended, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Yi Han did not将剑入鞘, his eyes vigilantly watching everyone.
"Who wants the精血?" Lu Zhiqian's voice was filled with殺意, his eyes扫ing back and forth between Yi Han and Wang Chong.
Wang Chong smiled slightly,伸出手掌 and pointed to him, "Brother Yi contributed the most, and he was also the one who directly killed the Purple Scaled Python. This精血 should naturally belong to Brother Yi."
Yi Han's heart沉, knowing that Wang Chong was trying to将自己推到风口浪尖.
Sure enough, the saber-wielding man's face suddenly became阴沉如墨, and he pointed his saber at Yi Han:
"Humph! The three of us苦苦圍殺ed the Purple Scaled Python and had already seriously injured it. What is the reason for you two to run over and争夺 it at this moment? Whoever dares to want the精血 will die!"
And the other two also had微变ed faces,紧了紧ing the weapons in their hands.
Yi Han冷笑ed and took out the bear skin wrapped into a团 from his怀中 and晃了晃ed it, "Brother Wang, you still have half a妖兽精血 on you. Why don't you take it out and divide it together?"
His other hand was紧紧握住ing the剑柄.
Wang Chong's face骤变ed,阴狠地 staring at Yi Han, obviously not expecting him to expose this matter.
Jiang Kai's faces露出ed a complex色, obviously greatly诧异ing at the relationship between Yi Han and the other.
In their view, Yi Han and the other冲过来ed to help together, they must be伙伴s with匪浅 relationships.
But now they are针锋相对ing,含沙射影ing in their words, how can they not be惊愕ed.
The场中一時间陷入ed 死寂, the atmosphere was even more怪异, like凝结ed寒冰.
A沉吟之色 flashed across Jiang Kai's face, and after a moment he opened his mouth to 打圆场: "Since everyone is相聚于此, it is緣分. Why not携手合作 and complete the task together? What do you all think?"
The woman's expression略微一松ed, gently点了点头, and柔声道ed: "Big Brother Jiang's所言极是, our five people合力, the odds of success are greater."
The saber-wielding man's face did not change, 冷哼ed, "Cooperation is possible, but if they dare to觊觎 this精血 material, then they are my enemy."
Yi Han收起ed the熊皮, his eyes扫了一眼ing Wang Chong,发现ing that the other party was似笑非笑地 looking at him, his eyes were full of戏谑.
Yi Han露出ed a愤恨之色, 冷哼ed and said: "I出手ed only out of好心, and never had the intention of争夺ing materials. If you are以小人之心度君子之腹, I have nothing to say."
Yi Han's voice was诚恳, 铿锵有力, his expression carried the怒意 and 不忿 of being怀疑ed.
"Brother Yi, I信 you, I hope you will forgive me for any得罪之处 previously." Jiang Kai倒转ed the剑柄 and 冲 Yi Han 抱拳致歉ed.
The woman also 抱了抱拳ed.
Yi Han's expression这才一缓ed, 持剑抱拳回礼ed.
Seeing this, Jiang Kai又介绍ed to:
"This brother is Lu Zhiqian, this girl is Su Yueqing, the three of us are结识ed two days ago and are合作ing to find materials together."
After speaking, he轻轻一叹ed: "Speaking of which, I was in this forest searching for materials a month earlier than you, and I almost lost my life to妖兽s several times."
Hearing this, Yi Han's heart一动ed, 大为警惕ed.
Wang Chong's 眉梢 also微微一动ed.
