Chapter 1820 - 1819: Su Yang Makes His Move
"Hahaha..." Shariel laughed wildly once more. "Who said they were coming to save us? If they come, they can kill you first. Let's see if your subordinates really want to save you or just watch you die."
The Divine Master had a cold expression, speaking in a deep voice, "Since we came here to stop you, we're definitely not afraid to die. You can't scare us!"
"Is that so?" Shariel sneered. "You're right, Huaxia people do have many who aren't afraid of death. But, so what? We didn't come here to kill; we're here to enter that valley."
Saying that, Shariel looked around again, sneering, "With your power, this Illusion Array was certainly not set up by you, but has been here for a while. So, if I'm not mistaken, this array guards the entrance to the valley. The entrance we've been searching for is nearby. Hahaha, we really have to thank you for helping us find the entrance we've searched for so long!"
In a flash, the Divine Master's expression completely changed. Shariel's cleverness left him shocked, and he hadn't expected Shariel to guess about the valley entrance, giving the Divine Master an almost despairing feeling.
He took a few steps back, looked at Su Yang standing beside him, with a smile of bitter helplessness in his eyes.
"I lost!" The Divine Master shook his head with a bitter smile. "I underestimated these Winged Cultivators. I... I am a traitor to the Human Clan throughout the ages..."
Su Yang also frowned tightly, not expecting the situation to develop to this point. He had originally thought the Divine Master's plan was flawless and could capture these Winged Cultivators in one sweep.
But who could have anticipated that these Winged Cultivators would be so astute, dividing into two groups to come? This completely disrupted their plan.
Moreover, given the situation, the number and strength of these Winged Cultivators far exceeded theirs. Even if they dispelled the Turquoise Pool Immortal Array and fought these Winged Cultivators head-on, they were no match at all!
Now, fighting head-on won't work. They have to think of another way.
Just then, a group rapidly approached from afar—it was the second group of Winged Cultivators. These people were incredibly fast, with some exceptionally powerful individuals among them, strong as the first group!
Seeing this group, the Divine Master's face turned pale. He clenched his fists and slowly stepped forward two steps, speaking in a deep voice, "Su Alliance Leader, if we truly lose this time, immediately take people and leave. If possible, block this entrance. Even if they get in, try not to let them out!"
Seeing the Divine Master's look, Su Yang was shocked, "Divine Master, what are you planning to do?"
"At this point, I can only fight to the death!" The Divine Master flicked his right hand, and a long saber appeared. Gripping it tightly, he looked decisively at those rushing over, and said in a deep voice, "This plan was my mistake, and I must protect this entrance with my life!"
Su Yang clenched his teeth and suddenly said, "Divine Master, don't act impulsively, I have a plan!"
"A plan?" The Divine Master looked at Su Yang in surprise, "What plan?"
"You don't have to get excited. Support the array first; don't confront them head-on. Leave the rest to me!" Su Yang said.
The Divine Master was a bit puzzled, but didn't say anything, slowly nodding.
Su Yang quickly rushed to the valley entrance, retrieving the World Melting Furnace hidden on him. He placed the World Melting Furnace at the entrance according to the planned position, using its entrance to replace the valley's entrance.
The environment in this area was already extremely complex, and from the outside, no one could tell the entrance had been replaced. And those Winged Cultivators have surely never seen this entrance before, so they wouldn't suspect anything when they come over.
After arranging everything, Su Yang let out a sigh of relief. He turned his head to find the Divine Master watching him from a distance.
Though a bit puzzled, Su Yang nodded towards the Divine Master, "Everything is set, no worries!"
The Divine Master slowly nodded, "I'll go out and keep watch!"
Su Yang nodded, "I'll guard this side, don't worry."
The Divine Master retreated, and by then, the second group of Winged Cultivators had already arrived. Seeing the situation, they immediately attacked those setting up the array. But, as the Divine Master said, those setting up the array were protected by light, rendering the attackers unable to harm them.
Standing within the Turquoise Pool Immortal Array, Shariel saw the situation and shouted, "Forget about us! Go ahead and kill those two. Also, the entrance to the valley is here, find it and go in immediately. Don't delay!"
Upon hearing this, the group quickly bypassed the Turquoise Pool Immortal Array and surged towards the valley entrance.
Standing nearby, the Divine Master saw them charging forward. His expression changed drastically, and he immediately flew away to avoid them.
However, these individuals ignored him, rushing toward the area where Su Yang was, all eager to be the first to enter upon spotting the entrance.
Su Yang's brows furrowed at the Divine Master's reaction, puzzled. Earlier, the Divine Master insisted on fighting, yet now, as soon as the others charged, he moved aside. This went against everything he had said, leaving Su Yang a bit irritated.
However, Su Yang didn't have time to dwell on it, as the Winged Cultivators were approaching. He quickly moved away from the entrance, not intending to clash with them, especially since the World Melting Furnace was behind him.
Outside, the Divine Master watched the second group of Winged Cultivators reach that area, his eyes flashing with brilliance. He swiftly retreated to the Turquoise Pool Immortal Array, and turned to his own group, raising his hand.
He did not notice that Black Widow had been watching him. Since the array setup began, Black Widow kept a keen eye on the Divine Master, always a bit wary of him.
As the Divine Master turned, Black Widow clearly saw the unhidden joy on his face.
Quickly reacting, Black Widow stepped back, causing the array to become chaotic.
At this moment, the Divine Master shouted, "Retract!"
His subordinates, as if prepared, acted simultaneously. With their movements, the light of the Turquoise Pool Immortal Array enveloped the Winged Cultivators within.
