#362 - Successful transaction
After finalizing their plan, Ye Bitong calmly instructed, "We will disperse from the city immediately and head to the exchange location.
Once there, we'll use the formation to encircle them."
As she spoke, she took out eight formation flags and distributed them to everyone, "As long as we successfully seal off the exits, we can enter smoothly.
As for my sister and nephew, their cultivation is shallow and not worth worrying about.
The real threat is Li Chengfeng's death substitute puppet, whose strength should not be underestimated."
"To prevent Li Chengfeng from escaping or self-destructing, we must act quickly to suppress him."
Li Chengfeng added with a smile, his eyes revealing a deep understanding of the death substitute puppet, "You can't deal with these puppets in the usual way.
Although they are controlled, they still retain some self-awareness, and the key to controlling them lies in their divine sense."
He then took out a talisman and explained, "This talisman is engraved with a series of sealing runes, each of which can enhance the power of the seal and assist each other.
Disrupting the puppet's divine sense is our breakthrough point."
At this moment, a spirit beast master with green hair and a white robe, Lu Kai, stepped forward with a confident smile, "Leave the matter of disrupting the divine sense to me."
With a wave of his hand, a special beetle with a dark body and white spots on its wings flew out of his sleeve and landed steadily on his palm.
"This is my Divine Sense Beetle, specializing in invading divine sense, making it impossible to defend against.
I have a hundred of them on hand, and releasing them instantly will be enough to severely damage Li Chengfeng's divine sense."
Witnessing Lu Kai display such treasures, the weight in everyone's hearts finally lifted.
With everything arranged perfectly, everyone used their strengths and went their separate ways.
Given Li Chengfeng's cunning and resourcefulness, he must have planted spies in Qinghai City.
The group's detour was to avoid his sharp edge.
Little did they know that Li Chengfeng was lurking among them, joining this bizarre journey to capture his own substitute.
Such a twist was hard to foresee even in a dream.
After leaving the city, the group had a clear goal.
The location of the death substitute puppet was three thousand miles away from Qinghai City.
With their peak Foundation Establishment cultivation and unique skills, they converged within two thousand miles at full speed.
Li Chengfeng sat leisurely on the luxurious chair on the Frog Saint's back, looking unrestrained.
The sword hanging at his waist was the famous "Nocturne of Twelve Snows," its cold light sending chills down one's spine.
Ye Bitong glanced meaningfully at Qinghui.
Qinghui whispered through divine sense transmission, "I took the liberty of handing this sword over to Li Bai in advance.
Since the Nameless Heavenly Book says he can't wield it, keeping it in my hands might breed other thoughts."
Ye Bitong nodded in approval upon hearing this.
Under Liu Ruyan's careful arrangement, the nine people quietly dispersed, each using their own methods.
Ye Bitong waved her arm, and the formation instantly covered the place where Li Chengfeng was hiding, putting everyone at ease.
She generously poured out thousands of high-grade spirit stones, which merged into the core of the formation.
The formation was activated with a bang, sealing the area airtight and interfering with spirit energy transmission, making it difficult for the enemy to escape.
Then, she led the group swaggeringly towards the cave entrance.
With all preparations complete, they waited for the death substitute puppet to appear.
They would subdue it with lightning speed, giving Li Chengfeng's true self no chance to peep and allowing no words to be exchanged to avoid revealing any information.
Having laid a net from heaven to earth, Ye Bitong looked calm and laughed loudly, "Li Chengfeng, why not show yourself?
I have prepared what you seek; have you brought what I desire?"
After she spoke, the cave door slowly opened, and Li Chengfeng's death substitute puppet walked out slowly with a mother and son.
Ye Biyan hugged her son tightly, her eyes looking at Ye Bitong with complexity.
The sister before her was no longer the girl next door she remembered.
She was exuding an extraordinary immortal aura, her eyes filled with indifference and disdain for the world, as if nothing in the world was worth mentioning.
Ye Biyan hesitated to speak, but finally opened her mouth gently, her voice with a hint of sadness, "Sister, I have come to seek refuge, bringing your nephew with me."
Ye Bitong's lips curled into a cold smile, and she said contemptuously, "You foolish woman, I kindly advised you to join me on the path to immortality and bestowed you with opportunities, only because of our sisterly love.
But you were stubborn and willing to sink into the mortal world, entangled with ordinary men, and ended up in this state.
Not to mention that you secretly hid the second half of the Nine Profound Dragon Formation, repeatedly plotting against me, and now you are in league with the demon Li Chengfeng.
From today onwards, our sisterly relationship is severed, and he is no longer my nephew.
Today, we will only discuss the transaction."
These words were like a thunderbolt, striking Ye Biyan like lightning, her face pale, almost fainting.
Others had thought that the reunion of sisters would be warm and affectionate, but unexpectedly, they were at odds with each other, as cold as ice.
Wang Fei clenched his fists, his eyes burning with hatred.
He had witnessed his mother being severely injured and vowed in his heart to avenge his mother.
Li Chengfeng's death substitute puppet secretly signaled, and Ye Biyan endured her grief, took out the second half of the Nine Profound Dragon Formation, took her son's hand, and walked towards Ye Bitong step by step, handing the formation to her.
At this moment, the air was filled with complex emotions and heavy choices.
Seeing Ye Biyan's cooperation, Ye Bitong was satisfied.
After carefully verifying that the formation was correct, the corners of her mouth curled into a cold smile.
She waved her hand to signal Ye Biyan and her son to retreat to the side and no longer interfere with what followed.
With her eye signal, everyone used their unique skills, and the scene suddenly became thrilling.
Lu Kai took the lead, releasing all the Divine Sense Beetles.
These insects were like a black storm, sweeping around, and any approaching spirit stones were instantly devoured.
Liu Ruyan elegantly blew out a puff of enchanted smoke, which lingered and went straight to Li Chengfeng's death substitute puppet, intending to confuse its mind.
Lan Qianxue gently stroked the zither, and the strings suddenly sounded, and six sharp sound waves, like swords, cut through the air, tightly binding the death substitute puppet.
The bald-headed Dahai slammed the ground with a heavy punch, causing the earth to tremble, and destroying the underground formation carefully arranged by Li Chengfeng's death substitute puppet.
However, at this critical moment, Li Chengfeng disappeared like a ghost, and when he reappeared, he was next to the death substitute puppet, quickly attaching a talisman to its body.
He confidently announced, "Li Chengfeng, you have calculated everything, but this time you will not escape.
We will take your death substitute puppet!"
Faced with this scene, the death substitute puppet just smiled indifferently.
As if he had seen through everything, "What's the use of catching me?
I'm just a substitute, even if I'm destroyed, it won't affect Li Chengfeng's main body."
Ye Bitong responded with a sneer, believing that the plan had been half successful, and was about to leave with the death substitute puppet, but suddenly saw a whirlwind rising under the feet of Ye Biyan and Wang Fei, and the two were instantly teleported away.
This sudden change made Ye Bitong's face change drastically, and she scolded, "Damn it!
Li Chengfeng, how dare you take away my sister and that bastard!"
Liu Ruyan, as the team's strategist, frowned, and a bad feeling rose in her heart.
She knew that Li Chengfeng's move must have a deeper meaning.
Giving up the death substitute puppet and taking away Ye Biyan and her son was obviously not in line with common sense.
"Li Chengfeng must have a deep plan," she said in a deep voice, her heart full of doubt and unease.
Everyone looked at each other, all feeling that this matter was strange.
What exactly is Li Chengfeng's intention?
Why did he go against the grain at the critical moment, giving up the important death substitute puppet, but taking away the seemingly unimportant Ye Biyan and her son?
They didn't know that Li Chengfeng valued morality.
He would not let them mother and son be used as sacrifices.
Because they had completed their mission and it was time to retire and enjoy their lives.
