Chapter 111: Battle Begins
Zhao Weiqing didn’t know whether to feel annoyed or relieved. On one hand, the fact Han Xuhan had based his conclusion around was not the reason why all the cultivators here were under his control.
On the other hand, the conclusion Han Xuhan had reached was absolutely correct. Zhao Weiqing’s main body was still busy refining its spirituality by corrupting the participants of the third challenge. It’d take a while for everyone to come out of the platforms, fully transformed into his vessels.
He had also accurately guessed that Qian Yun, the original owner of this vessel, was no longer in control. Being seen through so easily by a rookie cultivator really didn’t sit right with Zhao Weiqing. It hurt his pride.
"Well, if you’re not going to surrender, then don’t blame me for what happens to you."
Without turning around, he waved a hand at the vessel who had been hiding till now. Feng Jun made his appearance from the direction of the platforms. In his hand, he held a gleaming emerald orb, the fuel for activating the law fragment that had knocked Mu Ran out with a lightning strike.
Recognizing Feng Jun’s blank face from the distance, Han Xuhan’s mouth tightened. It was just as he had suspected. The third test really was suspicious. The drastic change in Qian Yun’s personality was just as absurd as the sheer obedience Feng Jun was showing to his orders.
Luckily, he had noticed the suspicious nature of the tests earlier and evaded whatever trap might have been triggered by an honest performance, or he would be sharing the same fate as Feng Jun now.
Under his observant gaze, Qian Yun exchanged a look with Feng Jun, who nodded as if he had received an order and started circling past the boundary of the law fragments Han Xuhan had buried under the soil.
When he had been creating those law fragments, Han Xuhan hadn’t expected that he would face enemies from multiple directions. Most of his law fragments were directed at the area outside the fog. The few exceptions were just a fail-safe in case any rogue cultivators or zombies appeared from the outer regions of the foggy area unexpectedly.
