Su Luo's situation was quickly discovered by Wan Xibo.
This was strange; his formation was supposed to be all-encompassing, so how could there be a blind spot?
Suddenly, he remembered that it was this person who had signaled his subordinates to threaten him earlier.
Well, isn’t that special? You like to threaten, do you? Threaten me, will you? Now I’ll give you some special treatment.
Wan Xibo's hands moved along a specific trajectory, adjusting the center of the formation and continuously adding smaller formations, all aimed at Su Luo.
Then, he activated it!
Countless formations materialized, surrounding Su Luo in a dazzling array of colors. The formations interacted with each other, amplifying their power.
The attacks engulfed Su Luo.
"Hahaha, is that all you’ve got?"
Wan Xibo was extremely pleased with his masterpiece.
The only thing that slightly disappointed him was that Su Luo didn’t even put up a fight, which made it feel a bit anticlimactic.
But that’s fine. After all, this person is only at this level, not worth mentioning.
Wan Xibo stopped paying attention to Su Luo and instead turned his gaze to others.
But gradually, blood began to trickle from the corner of his mouth.
Huh?
Why am I bleeding?
Wan Xibo was confused.
It was only then that Elder Yan noticed something was wrong with Wan Xibo. Upon closer inspection, his expression turned serious.
"You’ve been hit by the Reverse Mystic Gate Formation."
"Me? The Reverse Mystic Gate Formation?" Wan Xibo couldn’t comprehend Lin Xuan’s words.
But the more he thought about it, the more it made sense. He could no longer deceive himself; he clearly felt that his body had just suffered a tremendous attack.
But he couldn’t accept this fact.
"Impossible! This is my formation. How could I have fallen victim to it myself?"
The only Reverse Mystic Gate Formation present was his, and he didn’t believe Su Luo could have set up another one without him noticing.
"Release." After some fumbling, Elder Yan dispelled the formation that had ensnared Wan Xibo.
In an instant, Wan Xibo’s vision cleared.
The real Su Luo was completely unharmed, and the surroundings were in complete disarray, clearly the result of the formation’s attacks.
He had truly fallen victim to his own trap.
Wan Xibo hurriedly asked, "Who is this person? How does he possess such abilities?"
"You don’t know? He’s Su Luo, one of the Seven Heavenly Demon Sons."
"Su Luo, Su Luo... No, we must eliminate him as soon as possible. He’s too dangerous!"
Wan Xibo recalled how he had inexplicently fallen victim to his own Reverse Mystic Gate Formation, and the more he thought about it, the more eerie it felt.
He must be dealt with immediately!
He began setting up another formation, only to see Lin Xuan standing still, unmoved.
"Take action! Brother Lin Xuan, trust me, he’s not simple. If we don’t eliminate him soon..."
Before he could finish, the formation around him turned against him.
"What the hell! Don’t aim at me! What’s going on?"
But his formation didn’t listen to him at all. He couldn’t even figure out where the problem lay.
Boom!
Wan Xibo was once again struck by his own formation and lost consciousness.
"Elder Yan, I don’t understand," Lin Xuan said, his face full of confusion.
"Don’t worry, even I don’t know what’s going on. All I can say is that Su Luo held back."
Indeed, Elder Yan couldn’t comprehend why Wan Xibo’s formation had been controlled by Su Luo.
Su Luo had once again surprised Elder Yan. What kind of talent was this?
At this moment, Lin Xuan said, "Elder Yan, it feels like Su Luo is more versatile than you."
"Don’t say that. I admit Su Luo has unique strengths, but I’m not that bad either. And you, don’t let this discourage you."
"I won’t. I know I’m not on Su Luo’s level, and I’ve known that for a while, but I won’t give up."
"That’s the right attitude."
Lin Xuan adjusted his mindset and then turned his attention back to dealing with the Heavenly Demon Sect members.
As for Su Luo, he had never paid much attention to Wan Xibo in the first place.
Instead, his focus was on Li Siyi, who seemed to be preoccupied with something.
Her fighting style revealed a bit of her inner turmoil.
At that moment, Li Siyi’s gaze met Su Luo’s.
The two locked eyes.
Su Luo wanted to approach her and ask what was wrong, but it was almost time to retreat, so he had to let it go for now.
Cui Baiquan and the others had been tormented by the formations.
They were constantly attacked by unpredictable formations.
Sometimes they would strike what they thought were enemies, only to realize they were hitting their own comrades.
Other times, they thought they were fighting alongside allies, only to be stabbed in the back.
The lines between friend and foe had blurred.
Fortunately, Liang Shuanghua gradually deciphered the formations, turning the tide slightly.
Suddenly, Shan Gui let out a powerful roar, followed by a massive explosion.
The formation was breached, and the Heavenly Demon Sect members quickly escaped.
Su Luo followed them out.
As soon as he emerged, he appeared furious.
"Lin Xuan, stop playing these petty tricks! If you have the guts, let’s settle this in a duel!"
According to the plot, Su Luo had just undergone a significant power-up, so he was brimming with confidence.
"Let’s go!"
Cui Baiquan grabbed Su Luo, not wanting to continue the fight. The formations had already been a nightmare.
At the very least, they needed to regroup before striking back.
Su Luo gritted his teeth. "Cui Baiquan, if you hadn’t stopped me, I would have killed Lin Xuan!"
Cui Baiquan: "..."
He really wanted to let go and see if Su Luo could actually do it. Couldn’t he stop pretending for once?
But never mind. Su Luo had performed quite well earlier.
Indeed, Su Luo had used the Reverse Mystic Gate Formation to create illusions, making everyone believe he had been fighting valiantly.
No point in wasting such an opportunity.
Besides, if he didn’t act, Cui Baiquan might start doubting his sincerity in cooperating, which wouldn’t be good.
They still needed to work together later.
After breaking through the formation, Lin Xuan and the others couldn’t stop the Heavenly Demon Sect from escaping.
However, Lin Xuan knew that the Heavenly Demon Sect’s goal was the Ancient Ruins.
Since it was the Heavenly Demon Sect’s objective, they had to disrupt it.
Su Luo had left them a message. It would be a shame not to follow up on it.
After resting for a while, Lin Xuan and his group headed for the Ancient Ruins.
...
As for the Heavenly Demon Sect, they had made a rather disgraceful escape and were now holding a meeting.
They were debating whether to retaliate immediately or focus on completing their mission.
After much discussion, Cui Baiquan made the final decision.
"We’ll settle the score later. For now, let’s stick to the plan and head to the Ancient Ruins."
This statement sparked a debate, especially among Su Luo’s subordinates.
"Hmph, if it were up to our Demon Son Su Luo, we’d strike back first and then go to the Ancient Ruins."
"How can we just let this go? We were humiliated back there."
"Exactly. Even though we’re cooperating, Cui Baiquan lacks the leadership qualities. He’s... no, it’s clear he’s not as capable as our Demon Son Su Luo."
Cui Baiquan’s face darkened upon hearing this.
Su Luo, on the other hand, acted as if he didn’t know his own subordinates.
Cui Baiquan could only glare at Su Luo’s men. He didn’t dare to discipline them, as it might incite internal conflict.
Adding fuel to the fire at this point would be sheer stupidity.
At this moment, Liang Shuanghua spoke up. "I have no objections, but my formation skills are indeed inferior to Wan Xibo’s. If something goes wrong, I can’t guarantee anything."
He added silently in his heart, *If something goes wrong, I’m running first. You all can fend for yourselves.*
*They’re not paying me enough to risk my life.*
"Don’t worry, we’ll just be extra careful."
Cui Baiquan had read about a rare treasure in an ancient book. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
After all the preparation they had put in, they couldn’t return empty-handed.
+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet." "Your Highness, that’s not a consort. That’s a dog." "Then add clever, witty, heroic, ambitious yet pragmatic..." "Hmm, that’s enough for now. I’ll add more later." After tossing out these words half in jest, Princess Anle departed the temple—only to catch a fleeting glimpse of the Bodhisattva statue smiling at her. Meanwhile, Yang An, fresh out of university, was having a very bad day. Good news: He’d transmigrated into another world with a cheat granting tenfold combat power. Bad news: He’d immediately fallen into the clutches of a certain villainess. Good news: Said villainess possessed peerless beauty and royal status. Bad news: She was absolutely monstrous!!! In the frozen wilderness, Yang An knelt beneath Qin Guo’er’s feet, drenched in sweat despite the cold. Desperately clutching her porcelain-perfect foot—the very one poised to crush his throat—he could only think: How do I survive this?! Need answers NOW!
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!
esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
