Ji Linglong and her companions quickly dodged, but the number of venomous bees was overwhelming and their speed made it nearly impossible to escape. Unable to bear it any longer, Ji Linglong lashed out with her whip, clearing a path ahead.
The venomous bees, seeing this, became even more enraged and charged straight at Ji Linglong. She couldn't help but curse under her breath. Finally, she understood what these creatures were—wasn't it just honey mixed with water? If they had the ability, they should face her directly in a fair fight instead of resorting to such despicable tactics.
"I'll tell you this: you better hide well, or I will make you regret ever showing up in this world!" Ji Linglong thought to herself, feeling frustrated at being plotted against without being able to identify the culprits. Cowards, all of them!
Hidden in the shadows, Lu Yao and the others turned pale upon hearing her words. "Wait a minute, how did we provoke this disaster?"
"We need to get out of here quickly!" Wang Li immediately grabbed him. "Senior Brother Lu, fortune favors the bold. Although Ji Linglong seems cheerful on the surface, she hasn't noticed us yet. Instead of waiting for her to take revenge, why not seize this opportunity to eliminate her?"
Lu Yao hesitated. "What do you mean, Junior Brother Wang?"
"There are still plenty of water balloons left; why not throw them all at once?"
Lu Yao swallowed hard, wanting to refuse, but Wang Li shot him a glance that was both impatient and disdainful. This look ignited a fire within Lu Yao. No matter what, he was still the senior brother and would not allow himself to be looked down upon by Wang Li!
If Wang Li dared to act boldly, why shouldn't he? Gritting his teeth, he forced a smile. "Alright, I'll listen to you."
Just as they were preparing to act, they suddenly noticed some rustling sounds coming from ahead.
Wang Li's eyes lit up. "Senior Brother Lu, that must be Qi Xiao's team! Truly a blessing from above; today both of them will fall into our hands! Not just third place—first place is within our reach!"
"Really?" Hearing the mention of first place made Lu Yao feel dizzy with excitement. He quickly moved forward a few steps and cautiously peered through the leaves.
Seeing a flash of white darting through the forest filled him with joy.
"Fools! You've come all the way here and still wear such conspicuous clothing. Aren't you just asking to be set up?" If I don't take action, it would be a disservice to them!
Lu Yao waved his hand, and several water balls wrapped in spiritual energy shot towards the white figure. In an instant, the grass and leaves were overturned, revealing that what was moving was not a person at all, but a white spider about half a person's height!
What is going on?
Before they could react, several leaves fell onto them, cold and clammy. They tried to pull them off but found it impossible, and there was a faintly sour smell that made them feel nauseous if they inhaled too deeply.
Before they could figure out what this was, they noticed a swarm of poisonous bees charging at them as if they had found their mortal enemies.
Ji Linglong immediately sensed the commotion and gritted her teeth. Was it you who made the first move?
The group was startled and immediately fled, but the poisonous bees pursued relentlessly, and Ji Linglong was even less inclined to let them go.
Seeing them run so fast, she threw several small stones at their joints.
In an instant, cries of pain echoed as several of them fell to the ground, surrounded by the poisonous bees, suffering the consequences of their actions.
"Senior Sister Linglong! I-I was wrong! Please save me!"
Ji Linglong crossed her arms and sneered. "I see you don’t even realize your mistakes! If it weren't for you being discovered by the bees, you'd probably still be feeling proud of yourselves. You deserve to suffer a bit!"
"Senior Sister Linglong, I truly know my mistake now! Please help us! If you don’t act soon, these poisonous bees will sting us to death!"
They cried out in desperation, unable to suppress their fear. If they were poisoned by these bees without timely treatment, it could leave lasting consequences!
Seeing that Ji Linglong remained unmoved, they quickly turned their pleading gazes toward her fellow disciples behind her.
"Please save us! We truly know our mistakes! I can even give you our map fragments this time."
One round-faced female disciple stepped forward and spat disdainfully. "Once you're eliminated, your map fragments will naturally belong to us."
The others echoed her sentiment; they were unyielding. After witnessing how miserable these people were just moments ago, they were holding back their anger.
Lu Yao roared in frustration. "Which brat is behind this? Who set me up?"
He finally understood that the spider had been deliberately released by someone to expose their location.
Hiding in a corner, Qi Xiao scratched his head. "Tsk tsk, we arrived just a step too late."
If they had acted sooner, Lu Yao wouldn’t have had this trouble at all. Perhaps if they had come earlier, he would have been eliminated by the poisonous bees already.
Tong Liu thought he was worried about Senior Sister Linglong and showed a warm expression. "Senior Brother Qi, the bad guys have already been punished. Let’s go out and greet Senior Sister Linglong."
Qi Xiao quickly grabbed her, saying, "Who said I wanted to greet her?"
Tong Liu was taken aback. "You just watched Senior Sister Linglong being chased by the poisonous bees for so long without taking action. You even deliberately lured out the mastermind behind it. Wasn't that to save Senior Sister Linglong?"
Qi Xiao shot her a frustrated glance. "What are you talking about? How long can these poisonous bees really hold back Ji Linglong? Since someone else is already fighting, we can conserve our strength. Once they finish, we can act; that way, we maximize our benefits."
"And she ran away so fast; do you think you can hit her?"
"There’s only so much Soul Condensing Grass to go around. Even if I break it up, it can barely give everyone a little."
Qi Xiao snatched the remaining fragments from her hand, worried that the effect wouldn’t be strong enough. He even poured out some clear water to wash them again.
With a loud smack, Ji Linglong, who had been happily laughing, was suddenly knocked dazed. The water ball hit her squarely on the head, perfectly aimed.
The next second, Ji Linglong heard a buzzing sound again. She had already been stung into a state of panic; gritting her teeth, she didn’t look back and quickly took off into the air. A few disciples immediately followed her, leaving only Lu Yao and his group in despair and helplessness.
He trembled as he took out a communication jade talisman and pleaded, "Elder Chang, please save me! I admit defeat!"
Meanwhile, in a small courtyard, Elder Chang watched everything through a water mirror and shook his head helplessly. "You reap what you sow."
Elder Huang laughed in anger. "Wait a minute! Qi Xiao hasn’t gone far; why don’t you mention him? Your bias is too obvious!"
Elder Chang’s expression remained calm. "Strong individuals do such things with cleverness; if they can save energy, why not?"
Elder Huang shot him an exasperated glance. "I didn’t realize before that you could be so eloquent with your nonsense!"
"Forget it, forget it! If I don’t go now, those little ones will really be done for. They’re truly not making things easy for me!"
Elder Huang pushed open the courtyard door, and in the next moment, he was a hundred steps away. A flying boat set off from Qingxuan Peak and vanished in an instant.
