Chapter 2007: Beating them at their own game
“How could it be? How are you able to leave?” Those from the Beast Tamer Division were incredibly surprised when they saw her walk out.
“How is this difficult?” Sima You Yue said as she took a step back, entered it, then left again.
This barrier was completely useless against her!
“What did you do? Why can you disregard this barrier?” The Beast Tamer Division members asked as they looked at her.
“I’m not the only one. There-” Sima You Yue turned around and glanced at Chan Jiu, who walked out as well. “So I’m saying that this is useless.”
Immunity against barriers. This was something that she had learnt in the Ninth Underworld Mountain. With the Black Lotus Bloodline added on to this method, all barriers were useless against her.
“Hmph, even if the two of you can leave, it’s useless. Those people will still die. You might as well all die together!”
“Your idea lacks creativity. I don’t even feel like playing with you anymore.” Sima You Yue said. Suddenly, she disappeared and immediately appeared behind them. Kicking one person with each foot, she kicked them all into the barrier.
At this moment, Little Roar had opened a hole in the barrier, allowing Fu Xi, Huan and the others to leave.
“Awoo-”
Cries of the Underworld Beasts got closer, and the Beast Tamer Division members’ expressions changed.
In order to get the Underworld beasts to deal with You Yue and her group, they had placed things here to attract the underworld beasts. It would cause them to go crazy and lose their intelligence, attacking on sight.
Now that the underworld beasts had come, wouldn’t they attack them instead?
“Let’s hurry and leave! This barrier can’t do anything to us!” The male at the front yelled to the others as everyone headed to the edge of the barrier.
However, their secret arts did not seem to be working. No matter what they did, they had no way of exiting.
“How could this be! The barrier seems off!” Someone cried out with surprise.
Fear was infectious. In the beginning, he was probably the only one who was afraid. However, after he said that, the others started to become fearful as well.
If they couldn’t leave this place, wouldn’t they die right here today?
“Try again! See if there’s something off with the method.”
“If it were just one person, then it might be an issue with the method, but we all can’t leave this place, so how can it be a problem with the method!”
Despair and terror spread even quicker when they saw the silhouettes of the underworld beasts. They did not care about anything else as they desperately tried to get out again and again.
“You can stop wasting your efforts. This barrier isn’t the barrier from your sect. It’s one that Lingyu just made for you. You can enter but you can’t leave, so underworld beasts can go in too.” Sima You Yue looked at them, saying, “You’d better focus on the battle ahead.”
“What?!”
“How dare you!”
“Pfft-‘ you dare to plot against me, so why can’t we retaliate?” Fu Xi placed both hands on his waist, “This is known as cultivating yourself with the methods and principles of others. You can enjoy this!”
Very quickly, the underworld beasts arrived. They entered Wu Lingyu’s barrier and they watched as the Beast Tamer Division members all attacked.
There were so many underworld beasts and they were strong and powerful. These few people were completely not worth watching, as they were torn into pieces in no time at all.
Haixing and Haixi were so afraid that they turned pale when they saw this, but they still forced themselves to watch.
If it were not because they were powerful, and not because Sima You Yue had Little Roar who knew how to open barriers, they would have been the ones who ended up like that! That was why they could not pity these people. They had to watch and see how they would end up if they were not powerful.
“Who dares to act wantonly in the Hidden Sect!”
A group of people mounted horses and flew over. When they saw the mangled limbs in the barrier,their pupils shrank.
“You guys sure are bold! You actually dare to commit such violent crimes so openly in our Hidden Sect against our own sect disciples! We will definitely capture you today!”
Sima You Yue looked at the few tens of them. They weren’t weak, and a few of them wore clothes in the same design that Qing Cai and the others did.
“What do your Beast Tamer Division want to do? You got your men to lure us here and tried to kill us. In the end, you found out that your own people died, so you want to get the Hidden Sect members to come out and settle this? It looks like your Beast Tamer Division is too useless!” Black Shadow’s words were taunting, and it infuriated the Beast Tamer Division members.
“No matter what you say, you killed our sect members, so you are antagonising our Hidden sect! Guard Liao, you cannot let these people off! I suggest we execute them on the spot!” The Beast Tamer Division members looked at the one who was the first to speak, Liao Cang Ming, the leader of the guards of the Hidden Sect.
“I do not care what grudges you had before. This is the Hidden Sect. To kill the sect members of our Hidden Sect here is to set yourself against our entire Hidden Sect. Baked on the laws of the Hidden Sect, you will be killed with pardon!” Liao Cang Ming said.
“Guard Liao, was it? Could it be that you can’t see things clearly? How does it look like we’ve killed them? The ones who killed them were obviously the Underworld Beasts! Furthermore, we’re not the ones who called them here. This is our first time in the Hidden Sect, how could we know that this place contains Hidden Beasts? Also, how could we attract them here?” Sima You Yue refuted, “Although you have your laws to protect the sect members, how could you push the blame of the deaths of these people who committed suicide, to us?”
Liao Cang Ming furrowed his eyebrows lightly. She did make sense.
“Stop quibbling! If not because of your machinations, how could they have been killed by the underworld beasts! Guard Liao, Sect Deputy Master said that these people cannot be left alive. As long as you kill them, of the sacred beasts that we have tamed, we will leave you first pick!”
Liao Cang Ming was rather tempted. He had been thinking of obtaining a sacred beast recently, but they were difficult to tame. Even if they managed to tame one, it would never reach him. They were all snatched by the various sect elders, young masters and geniuses. Now that the Deputy Master had said this, didn’t it mean that the sacred beast he had been pining after for so long was finally his?
However, these people were right. It was obvious that the Beast Tamer Division members had not planned it through properly and their opponents had turned the tables. Thinking about it, it was like they had done it to themselves.
“Guard Liao, you don’t have to worry. No matter how things transpired, our Beast Tamer Division members did die because of these people. You were merely exacting justice based on the laws!”
Sima You Yue could tell that Liao Cang Ming was having an inner battle. However, he finally could not resist the lure and the kindness in his eyes left. He turned to the guards behind him as he waved his hand, “Capture all of them!”
“Guard Liao, you should execute them on the spot!” The Beast Tamer Division members cried out.
Liao Cang Ming glanced at them, then changed his order, “Execute them on the spot!”
When the guards heard his order, they knew that they were very powerful and attacked them all together.
“At the end of the day, we came here to study, so we didn’t want to blow things up. They just refused to budge.” Sima You Yue said.
Huan and Black Shadow received the order and those guards were beaten to the ground in no time at all. Every single one lay on the ground, unable to move, but none of their lives were in danger.
“Clang-”
The sound of a stringed instrument came from everywhere. When they heard the sound, everyone’s expression changed.
