Chapter 1483 - An Avalanche of Loneliness

Wei Huayang said calmly, “Sometimes, you really do have to be on guard. After all, had you chosen to betray us, we’d be in an extremely passive position when it came time to take action.”

“Betray you?” Celestial Bi Ning’s gaze frosted over. “Since you don’t trust me, I’ll just leave to avoid delaying your operation.”

With that, she turned and led her experts away. The others present hurriedly tried to dissuade her, but in the end, she disregarded them all and stubbornly left.

Many others’ expressions darkened.

“In that case, once we’ve killed that ruffian, no one in your party will have any further opportunities to enter the canyon!” Suo Yunshan said grimly.

Celestial Bi Ning took a deep breath, but in the end, she said nothing. She just turned and led her people away.

“This woman... there’s really something not right about her.” After watching Celestial Bi Ning lead her people away, Wei Huayang furrowed his brow. “We agreed to work together, but after seeing that Eastern Profound Star Domain guy, she changed her mind. Isn’t she a bit too capricious?”

“Everyone has their own ambitions. No need to push her,” Lei Kong said coldly. “Later, she and her allies won’t just be barred from the canyon and unable to gather Nascent Divinity Essence. They’ll become our mutual enemies, too!”

Mu Qingqi’s eyes flashed with murderous intent. “That’s right! That’s how we ought to do it! She wants to watch tigers fight from a safe distance and reap the benefits? Fine, but she’ll have to pay the corresponding price!”

Suo Yunshan said gravely, “It won’t do to delay. Fellow Daoist Lei Kong, if you please.”

“Got it!” said Lei Kong.

....

“Celestial, are we really giving up just like that?”

Not long after they left Azure Dragon Ridge, one of Celestial Bi Ning’s subordinates couldn’t help but ask.

The others looked over, all of them visibly confused.

That Eastern Profound Star Domain guy had killed many of their allies, and he’d even monopolized the good fortune of Azure Dragon Ridge. There was no reason they couldn’t have worked with the other camps to avenge this grudge.

Who’d have thought Celestial Bi Ning would just give up?

Who’d be willing to accept that?

“Since we retreated, we aren’t just losing our opportunity to get revenge. No, we won’t be able to gather Nascent Divinity Source, and... it’s highly likely the others will bear a grudge against us!” someone said bitterly.

Celestial Bi Ning swept her gaze across the group, but in the end, she didn’t explain herself. She just said, “This is a gamble.”

“A gamble?”

“Yes,” said Celestial Bi Ning, her expression calm. “Soon enough, all of you will see for yourselves whether my decision was cowardice or wisdom.”

......

Deep within Azure Dragon Ridge, ten thousand feet from the canyon, Lei Kong appeared out of midair.

He took out a bronze swordbreaker, pointed it toward the distant skies, and tapped.

Boom!

The skies over the canyon were shrouded in tribulation lightning year round, but now, they fell, as if they’d been provoked. The lightning completely enveloped the entire canyon.

Dense thunderbolts burst with terrifying, destructive power, shaking all of Azure Dragon Ridge.

“Even if I can’t kill you, I can make your life difficult. You can forget about cultivating in peace!” Lei Kong’s gaze was cold, and a hideous smile tugged at his lips.

This operation was to begin with him. He’d direct the lightning to ruin Su Yi’s seclusion. That way, they could “lure the snake out of its cave!”

But against all expectations, despite the relentless onslaught of tribulation lightning, there was no reaction from the canyon.

“Don’t tell me that guy couldn’t avoid the lightning and that it blasted him to death?” thought Lei Kong.

For caution’s sake, he didn’t hesitate to attack once more, swinging his bronze swordbreaker with all his might.

Lightning churned and thunder boomed over the canyon. Electricity fell like rain, slamming the canyon. That dazzling electric light illuminated the entire dome of heaven.

But Lei Kong nonetheless frowned. Even now, he saw now sign of anyone fleeing the canyon.

“Don’t tell me the lightning really blasted that guy to death?” Lei Kong took out a beast skin scroll and shook it gently. It transformed into a set of soft armor that covered his entire body.

But just as he was about to proceed into the canyon, a calm voice rang out.

“Are you looking for me?”

Lei Kong’s entire body stiffened, and he whipped around to look.

He wasn’t sure when, but a young man in blue stood near a distant cliffside, his hands behind his back. He was looking right at him as if all of this were perfectly normal.

“You...” Lei Kong’s expression shifted. “You left the canyon a long time ago?”

“I did.” Su Yi nodded.

Lei Kong prepared himself to face a powerful foe, and his expression was unsightly. “Were you there this entire time?”

“I was.” Su Yi nodded again.

Lei Kong’s scalp went numb as he realized that this didn’t bode well. “Then... Why didn’t you attack me earlier?”

Su Yi didn’t hide it. “I wanted to see whether that woman was lying to me or not.”

Earlier, when Celestial Bi Ning left, she silently left him a talisman containing a description of the other five camps’ arrangements!

Their plan was divided into three steps.

First, they’d send Celestial Bi Ning to negotiate.

Second, if Su Yi refused their terms, they’d have Lei Kong trigger the tribulation lightning above the canyon to force Su Yi out, luring the snake from its cave.

Third, the experts of the various camps waiting outside Azure Dragon Ridge would join forces to set a formation. When Su Yi fled, he’d fall right into their trap!

Their plan was simple, nothing overly meticulous, but they had an absolute advantage in numbers. That made it easy to set a trap.

Of course, Su Yi only half believed Celestial Bi Ning.

At first, that is. After seeing Lei Kong take action, he was fairly certain that Celestial Bi Ning hadn’t lied to him.

When Lei Kong heard Su Yi’s answer, his expression was instantly overcast. How could he fail to realize that Celestial Bi Ning had betrayed them?

“In truth, I didn’t need her to warn me. Your ‘deathtrap’ is nothing but empty posturing to me,” said Su Yi.

“That so? Dare you come with me to test it, then?” Lei Kong said coldly.

His entire body was as tense as a bowstring, and he was ready to attack at a moment’s notice. He wasn’t the slightest bit complacent.

“Why not?” Su Yi laughed, then turned to leave Azure Dragon Ridge. “Come on, then. Show me just how capable the top Nascent Divinity Transcendents of the other three star domains are.”

“????” Lei Kong was baffled. Even if you’d hit him over the head, he would never have thought Su Yi would agree.

He was a top expert of the Nascent Divinity Realm too, and he’d overcome all manner of fierce battles in his life, but more so than anyone he’d ever faced, this opponent didn’t seem to play by the rules!

Su Yi knew a deathtrap was waiting for him, yet he was walking right toward it of his own volition!

He was simply insane!

“You really aren’t going to run?” Lei Kong chased after Su Yi, but maintained a definite distance.

“There’s no need for that,” Su Yi said distractedly.

Lei Kong’s expression filled with uncertainty. “Don’t tell me... you really dare face us head-on?”

“Why should I dare?” Su Yi took out a jug of wine and had a sip. A hint of loneliness appeared on his brow as he whispered, “To tell the truth, I’d actually just love it if your trap could confine me.”

“....” This conversation was starting to drive Lei Kong insane. How could someone this arrogant exist in this world!?

Lei Kong took a deep breath and said coldly, “Then do you realize that there are over a hundred Nascent Divinity cultivators waiting for you out there? We’ve placed a nineteen-layer killing formation, and...”

Su Yi waved for silence. “Hush, hush! This ‘deathtrap’ was boring from the start. If you reveal too much, won’t you ruin what fun remains?”

The veins bulged on Lei Kong’s forehead. If not for Su Yi’s recent bloody feats, Lei Kong would have long since mocked him mercilessly. He’d seen people put on airs before, but never to such an extent!

“He’s come out!” An excited voice emanated from afar.

Suo Yunshan, Wei Huayang, and the others were ready, waiting, and rubbing their palms together in anticipation.

When they saw Su Yi appear, they didn’t hesitate to issue orders.

“Attack!”

Their voices spread throughout heaven and earth.

Boom——!

The nearby landscape shook. The formation fluctuated, their countless ripples soaring into the air. Heaven and earth transformed, and terrifying murderous intent blotted out the sky and obscured the sun.

Lei Kong immediately fled; he most certainly didn’t want to get swept into this.

But to Lei Kong’s astonishment, Su Yi made no attempt to flee. No, he even continued ahead as if he were out for a casual stroll, sauntering right into their killing formation!

“Insane! He’s absolutely insane!” murmured Lei Kong.

“Quick! Activate the formation with everything you’ve got!”

Lei Yunshan, Wei Huayang and the others bellowed and issued orders. All of them were excited and eager, their expressions full of delight.

Even they could never have guessed the mighty foe they viewed with such dread would meekly throw himself into their net!

“Kill him!”

“Kill him!”

“Kill him!”

Over a hundred Nascent Divinity Transcendents of various camps had long since gotten in position within their formation. Now, they attacked in full force.

Boom!

Within the formation, thunder rumbled and boomed, and a wave of divine flames swept forth. That terrifying destructive power was enough to make even the distant Lei Kong quiver with fright.

He dared say with certainty that were he to find himself trapped within that formation, he could never have escaped. Even if he activated his hidden killer weapon, he’d have no hope of survival!

“What’s that guy relying on? Why does he dare walk right into a deathtrap? He even told me not to spoil it for him! He sure knows how to put on airs. I’m actually quite eager to see just how wretched his death is!”

Lei Kong gnashed his teeth and watched intently as Su Yi was trapped within the formation. He didn’t want to miss even the slightest detail.

It wasn’t just him. Suo Yunshan, Wei Huayang, Mu Qingqi, and the other top Nascent Divinity experts were watching closely too.

All of them were thinking the same thing. There’s no way he\'ll escape!!

This was because they’d placed this formation together, and over a hundred Nascent Divinity Transcendents were working together to circulate it. It could easily destroy a Dao Integration Transcendent, let alone a Nascent Divinity Transcendent!

Meanwhile, within the formation’s bounds, Su Yi shook his head and sighed.

Why? Simple. This formation really was nothing but empty posturing. Nothing about it was worthy of his attention.

Any last remaining threads of eagerness disappeared from Su Yi’s heart.

And an avalanche of loneliness assailed him!
