The two of them were calculating in their hearts, and their subordinates naturally reserved some strength to be ready for any changes.
Suddenly, the opponent drew their sword, causing both of their hearts to tremble and leap.
Then the two of them rode on the sword light and charged into the gap!
But their muscles were tense, prepared for the inevitable lethal strike from the enemy! They both knew: this strike was certain, absolutely unavoidable. If they could withstand this strike, they could break through!
If they couldn't withstand it, they would only be captured.
Fortunately, I have prepared a scapegoat; I just don't know if it will succeed... Both of them thought this way, feeling both secretly delighted and anxious.
However, in the next moment, they both felt an overwhelming surprise that their hearts couldn't handle!
The opponent... actually maintained that imposing and fierce stance, not moving at all! They just let the two of them glide past the four of them...
Without even blocking!
In fact, after the two entered, those four were still striking poses to look cool! They didn’t even turn back to chase!
Even in a high-speed escape of life and death, one should never look back, yet the two supreme of swords couldn't help but turn their heads.
It was simply too strange.
What was going on?
Upon looking back, they only saw the four imposing figures standing there!
These four people were still standing majestically, gazing forward...
"Really strange..." Ye Zui murmured, "Could it be that these four are just here to strike a pose and scare us?"
"Shut up, where do you get all this nonsense..." Chu Yang scolded irritably; pulling Ye Zui, the two of them truly became a united front in this moment of danger — with a swish, they entered Pagoda Mountain!
In an instant, they disappeared without a trace into the mist.
Both understood that although they had their plans, if the opponent did not make any mistakes, the possibility of escaping was almost zero!
Fortunately, the opponent made a mistake.
Thanks to this mistake!
...
Not only were Chu Yang and Ye Zui stunned, but Zhuge Hun, who was pursuing them from behind, was even more unsure of his feelings.
Looking at how he had chased for so long, using cunning plans, the empty city strategy, psychological warfare, and strong coercion, he finally cornered these two into the trap he had set.
Once the trap was sprung, these two would surely be captured without any possibility of escape.
How come at this moment... the four supreme fifth rank masters suddenly turned into statues?
Zhuge Hun had originally come with a confident smile, thinking that everything was settled as he leisurely pursued.
From a distance, he saw the four masters striking terrifying poses, almost laughing out loud.
But the next moment, those four masters actually stood still, letting the enemies rush past, without even a hint of obstruction!
Seeing this scene, Zhuge Hun lost his breath and fell to the ground, rolling like a yuanbao across the grass for seven or eight times before getting up, rubbing his eyes to look.
Indeed!
Those two had vanished behind the four fifth rank supremes, not even a shadow remained.
And the four fifth rank supremes still wore pleased smiles, full of satisfaction as if they had accomplished a great task...
Standing there in their poses!
Zhuge Hun felt his head buzz.
In a daze, he shouted, "What are you doing!!!"
His shout echoed, creating a thunderous resonance. In the fog of Pagoda Mountain, a series of echoes came back:
What are you doing?
Are you doing?
Doing what?
What?
...
It was truly the sound of a tongue blossoming in spring thunder!
But the four supremes remained with their cat-and-mouse grins, standing tall and imposing, hands on sword hilts, swords drawn halfway, glinting coldly, exuding a fierce killing intent.
Yet they didn’t move at all!
All eight eyes were mockingly watching Zhuge Hun, not even twitching an eyebrow.
At that moment, Zhuge Hun's heart turned icy: What the hell... what is going on? Shouldn't they be the ones in trouble? Instead, am I the one who got tricked?
