Elder Yang immediately changed his plan.
Even though the sharp thread of blood had been severed by [Moon Splitter] from Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy, but half the thread of blood already coiled on the fake Crown Prince Feng’s neck.
Under Elder Yang’s flawless control, the thread of blood on the fake Crown Prince Feng’s neck was tightening all of a sudden.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy knew Elder Yang would never give up that easily, and she already observed Elder Yang’s every movement after she severed the sharp thread of blood.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy immediately realized it when half the thread of blood on the fake Crown Prince Feng’s neck was tightening up, so her palm was flashing with silvery light once more as she swung forward toward the fake Crown Prince Feng’s neck with lightning speed.
Because she executed her [Moon Splitter] in a hurry at this moment, Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy subconsciously incorporated the [Combination of [Drifting Clouds Palms] and [Crouching Tiger Claw] (Transcendence State)] that she copied from Junior Martial Sister Jian yesterday into her [Moon Splitter].
The end result was actually out of her expectation.
[You have incorporated the essence of martial arts into Moon Splitter. Your mastery over Moon Splitter had increased by leap and bound.]
[Congratulation! You have upgraded Moon Splitter to Moonlight Flash!]
[Moonlight Flash!]
Even Elder Yang and the fake Crown Prince Feng failed to see the movement of Tang Li Xue’s palm this time since she swung her palm with unbelievable speed.
They could only saw a silver light flashed, and the sharp thread of blood on the fake Crown Prince Feng’s neck had already been cut into small pieces.
‘Eh? What… [Moonlight Flash]?! It is an upgrade version of my [Moon Splitter]?! So, the skill can also get upgraded by itself just like that?! No… The system notification said the skill got upgraded because I incorporated the essence of martial arts into it? Woah, this is awesome! Doesn’t it mean I can incorporate all of the martial arts I copied with [Mirror of the Moon] with my skill?!’ Tang Li Xue’s eyes brightened a lot when she thought about it.
Unfortunately, it was not an appropriate time to think about it since their predicament was far from over yet.
The three Nascent Soul Stage elders already decided to make their moves too right at this time as they approached the fake Crown Prince Feng and Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy from three different directions.
‘Damn it! This looks bad! I really do not want to fight head-on with any Nascent Soul Stage cultivator yet!’ Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy thought in anxiousness.
But both the fake Crown Prince Feng and Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy already surrounded by the three Nascent Soul Stage elders in an instant, Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy wanted to grab Elder Yang again as her hostage, but Elder Yang stood a bit far away from her right now.
Right at this crucial timing, the fake Crown Prince Feng suddenly jumped toward Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy from behind and grabbed her neck tightly with his claw, then shouted: “Stop! Do not come close or I will kill her this instant!”
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy rolled her eyes in annoyance and said to the fake Crown Prince Feng with her [Lock-On Telepathy]: ‘You idiot! Why the hell do you still taking me as your hostage?! Didn’t I already say that I am a nobody for them?! They will never care about my life or death at all!’
‘Do I still have any other choice right now?! At least, I still have to try it, right?’ The fake Crown Prince Feng shouted back to Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy in exasperation with his own [Telepathy] skill.
But the three Nascent Soul Stage elders only hesitated for a few moments before decided to keep approaching the fake Crown Prince Feng.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy was nothing more than a nobody for them after all. It did not matter if she accidentally got killed here.
They only hesitated for a few moments because it was really a pity for a peerless beauty like Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy to get killed here.
Unfortunately, these three Nascent Soul Stage elders already passed their puberty a very long time ago. They were already so old and even almost reached the end of their life, so how could they still got seduced by Tang Li Xue’s beauty.
‘Uargh~!!! I knew it! They will never care about me at all! But it is still hurt my feeling when they started attacking just like that without caring about my safety even one bit…’ Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy thought while sighed in frustration as she readied herself to at least avoid or defend herself from the powerful attacks of these three Nascent Soul Stage elders.
“Halt!” Elder Yang shouted all of a sudden to stop the three Nascent Soul Stage elders from attacking.
Elder Yang glared at the fake Crown Prince Feng, and his eyes were filled with frightening killing intent.
Even the fake Crown Prince Feng was shuddered in shock and horror by Elder Yang’s sudden change.
‘You are lying! Look! He seems super care about your safety! Are you sure that you are really not on his side?’ The fake Crown Prince Feng complained to Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy using his [Telepathy] skill.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy rolled her eyes and replied with her [Lock-On Telepathy]: ‘Just focus on doing your part without any mistakes this time. Do not take unnecessary actions anymore! We only need to stall for ten minutes right now. You just need to talk or chat with him for ten minutes until my people arrive.’
“Let her go right now and I will promise to let you go, if not, I will definitely make you regret not dying so soon.” Elder Yang spoke with a cold chilling tone.
“You are really making fun of me, aren’t you?! Do you really think I will believe your empty words for the second time?!” The fake Crown Prince Feng gnashed his teeth in anger and shouted back at Elder Yang.
‘Correction… you never even believe any of his words for the first time, so how come there is a second time?’ Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy complained using her [Lock-On Telepathy].
The fake Crown Prince Feng was stunned for a moment and replied: ‘Oh, really?! So, you are going to stand up for your boyfriend in this kind of situation?!’
‘… He is not my boyfriend. I will throw you to those Nascent Soul Stage elders if you dare to say it like that again!’ Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy threatened the fake Crown Prince Feng in annoyance.
“So, what do you want us to do right now?” Elder Yang asked the fake Crown Prince Feng with a cold chilling tone.
“Dispel this light barrier first. We will discuss it further after you managed to carry it out.” The fake Crown Prince Feng immediately replied while tightened his grip on Tang Li Xue’s neck.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy started to feel suffocating when the fake Crown Prince Feng choked her neck.
‘This bast*rd! If she is not the important Zuo… whatever it is, I will make sure to choke him to death later after all of this over!’ Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy cursed the fake Crown Prince Feng in her heart.
“Just like I have explained to you before, this Revealing Light Swords Formation is incredibly hard to dispel. It will take quite a lot of time to do it since I and those three elders need to move around to look for the hidden key runes and disperse it one by one…” Elder Yang said again like his previous words.
But the fake Crown Prince Feng did not have any patience to listen to Elder Yang’s explanation for the second time and immediately cut him halfway.
“Shut up! I do not want to hear your explanation anymore! All of your words are only bullshit to make me lower my guard!” The fake Crown Prince Feng shouted in anger again.
Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy almost fainted by this fake Crown Prince Feng’s idiocy.
‘Didn’t I just say that you need to stall for ten minutes? Why the hell do you shut him up like that instead?! Aihh…’ Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy grumbled at the fake Crown Prince Feng.
The fake Crown Prince Feng immediately realized his mistake when Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy said it to him.
He quickly took a deep breath to calm down the raging emotion in his heart.
Then the fake Crown Prince Feng began to discuss it earnestly with Elder Yang instead.
Although the fake Crown Prince Feng looked earnest, but he was actually talking in circles with Elder Yang to stall for more time.
Someone as smart and cunning as Elder Yang definitely noticed it after five to seven minutes of meaningless discussion with the fake Crown Prince Feng.
‘Strange, he looks very angry before, so I think he is going to lose control very soon. I never thought that he can regain his composure so soon. Also, what is his true purpose of talking in circles like this? Is he trying to wait until the four elders completely exhausted and the light barrier wears out by itself? It is possible… Or maybe… is he waiting for his reinforcement to come? It is possible too…’ Elder Yang pondered it carefully for a few moments.
‘Anyway, I cannot let him buy more time or the situation will deteriorate and become a disadvantage for me!’ Elder Yang decided in his heart.
Elder Yang nodded his head while kept discussing the terms with the fake Crown Prince Feng, but he was actually giving a signal to the still hidden fourth Nascent Soul Stage elder.
Elder Yang gave permission to the hidden fourth Nascent Soul Stage elder to slay the fake Crown Prince Feng instantly in one move without injuring Tang Li Xue’s perfect copy.
It was clear that Elder Yang had completely given up on interrogating the fake Crown Prince Feng and decided to just execute him on the spot.
