Chapter 638: 0639 Tearing Off the Disguise (Second Update)
This speculation was highly likely. If they were unable to break through this energy layer and one more person knew about this cave mansion, the five people from the Guan clan definitely wouldn’t mind silencing someone by killing. Besides, there was also a colossal statue puppet outside. Acquiring it would be no less fortunate than stumbling upon a great opportunity.
No matter how one looked at it, for the five people of the Guan clan, it was beneficial without any harm.
"Since Brother Guan wishes to overpower the spell with force, Ye is willing to contribute his strength. Let’s begin!" Ye Qiu pretended to agree with Guan Shan’s method and joined them in attacking the entrance of the cave.
Guan Shan smiled and said, "Good, remember, when the time comes, everyone must attack with full force without any reservations, striving to break through in one go."
Guan Yue and the others nodded. As for the silent exchanges in their eyes, Ye Qiu had long since seen through them clearly in his heart.
Attacking the cave mansion with all their strength and exhausting their own energy? This was not something Ye Qiu was afraid of. With first-class Crystal Stones, when it came to recovery speed, the few people from the Guan clan couldn’t even catch up if they tried.
He actually wanted to see whether the five from the Guan clan would reveal their fox tails at the last moment, as he had speculated.
Including Ye Qiu, a total of six people surrounded the entrance of the Shooting Moon Cave, all starting to unleash various attacks.
Boom boom boom...
As various powers struck the entrance, a layer of invisible energy suddenly blocked the attacks, preventing any damage to the entrance.
Indeed peculiar.
Ye Qiu followed the speed of the others, using similar strength, continually throwing punches. As each attack landed on the energy of the entrance, someone among the six quickly yelled out that they were exhausted and withdrew, leaving the remaining people to continue the barrage.
Guan Shan and Guan Yue were still continuing. Every time Ye Qiu unleashed a forceful attack, it surprised the silently observing Guan Shan and Guan Yue, who didn’t expect Ye Qiu’s strength to be even more formidable than theirs.
"Brother Ye isn’t holding back, everyone put in more effort. Maybe the entrance will be breached very soon!" Guan Shan shouted loudly. After speaking, he took the lead, making his attacks even more powerful.
Ye Qiu sneered in his heart. He was deliberately performing for the others to see, proving he wasn’t holding back. He believed that by now, Guan Shan and Guan Yue must have trusted him.
The attacks continued relentlessly, time ticking away bit by bit.
One after another, members of the Guan clan withdrew until only Ye Qiu, Guan Shan, and Guan Yue remained, still attacking.
Joy flashed across Guan Shan’s face because he found that the energy protecting the entrance was truly weakening rapidly.
Ye Qiu also noticed this situation, perhaps with a bit more persistence, they could indeed exhaust the force maintaining the cave mansion.
In fact, upon careful consideration, it was only to be expected. After all, the cave mansion had been without a master for a long time, and the entire Great Emperor’s tomb was shrouded in deathly silence. For such formidable power to remain was already quite extraordinary.
"Brother Ye, the energy is nearly dissipated. Let’s keep it up," said Guan Shan encouragingly.
Guan Yue chimed in opportunistically, "Bring out your last bit of energy. Perhaps with one final push, we can break through."
"All right."
The three exchanged a glance and marshaled their last surge of power for the final strike.
Boom boom boom!
Three attacks fell at the same time, and the energy maintaining the cave finally showed cracks and began to crumble.
With a snap, as the three felt an impact after delivering the last blow, they were flung backwards.
"It’s broken!"
The three Guan clan disciples who had been recovering at the side exclaimed with joy.
Ye Qiu, Guan Shan, and Guan Yue lay on the ground, and it took a while before they could sit up again.
"Brother, how are you feeling?" Guan Yue looked at Guan Shan, who shook his head, "I’m fine."
The two exchanged glances before turning to Ye Qiu, with Guan Shan saying, "Brother Ye, how about you? Do you still have the strength to stand up?"
Ye Qiu gave a wry smile and shook his head, "I’m afraid I’ve used up even the strength to walk."
"Is that so..." Guan Shan murmured. He sensed that Ye Qiu’s energy had weakened, clearly looking listless.
"Brother Ye, if that’s the case, I’m afraid you cannot enter the cave dwelling," Guan Shan said with difficulty.
As he spoke, Guan Shan and Guan Yue both stood up. Ye Qiu looked surprised and asked, "You still have strength?"
At that moment, three other Guan clan members appeared behind Ye Qiu, restraining him. Ye Qiu frowned, "Brother Guan, what do you mean by this?"
"Haha... You still don’t understand?" Guan Yue, the woman, suddenly burst out laughing, making her already not-so-beautiful face even more unsightly.
Guan Shan walked up in front of Ye Qiu, his energy only half depleted, squatted before Ye Qiu and said, "You’ve been deceiving me into exerting all my strength, while you didn’t use your full force all along?"
"Brother Ye, since you have figured it out, there’s no point in resisting anymore," Guan Shan said with a cold smirk. The amiable face he had before was gone, replaced with an icy cold expression. The Guan clan members had finally cast off their pretense, revealing their true nature.
"Perhaps I should have realized that you had ulterior motives, and even the chance to share half of the treasures in the cave dwelling was a lie!" Ye Qiu sighed.
"Share half with you? Haha... Do you really think I, Guan Shan, am foolish? For this opportunity, my Guan clan has been oppressed in the ancient lands for decades, never daring to resist. Now that I, Guan Shan, have finally arrived here, I will take what should have belonged to my Guan clan," declared Guan Shan.
"As for you, Brother Ye, oh no, I didn’t even know that the ancient lands had a Ye clan until now. You must have been deceiving us. But that doesn’t matter anymore. Now that the barriers outside the cave dwelling are broken and you’ve exhausted your strength, landing in our hands, who you really are doesn’t matter anymore!" Guan Shan slowly rose to his feet.
"Brother Guan, since I no longer pose a threat to you, you could spare my life. I don’t want the opportunity anymore," Ye Qiu pleaded with a hint of desperation.
"Hmph, don’t even think about it. Only the direct descendants of my Guan clan know about this opportunity. Nobody else could have found this place. If it weren’t for the fact that you were alone and could control the giant statue carving, do you think we would have brought you here?" Guan Yue said coolly.
"You want the giant statue carving?"
"That’s right. If you’re sensible and don’t want to suffer, just honestly explain how to control that giant statue carving," another Guan clan member said.
"Brother Ye, I advise you to just tell us. It’s impossible to let you leave, but if you tell me how to control the giant statue carving, I, Guan Shan, can promise you a swift death," Guan Shan said.
"Must you push me to my death?"
"Yes, because you know about this place."
"Maybe I can still be of help to you!" Ye Qiu continued to strive for a chance to live.
"Brother, let’s just do it, force him to tell us," Guan Yue was not in the mood to delay any further.
Guan Shan raised his hand to stop her, instead gazing at Ye Qiu with interest, "Brother Ye, you say you can be of help, I am quite curious as to how?"
Ye Qiu pointed at the Shooting Moon Cave and said, "There surely isn’t just the energy we encountered before in there, there must be other challenges too. If I’m with you, maybe I can be of help."
Then, the other three Guan clan members’ eyes lit up as they all spoke, "Right, since he’s under our control, there’s no telling what dangers lie within the cave dwelling. If he goes in first to explore, nothing could be better!"
"Well..." Guan Shan was tempted. He was also uncertain, knowing the cave dwelling was no ordinary place, and it was unlikely to be without its perils. If there were hidden dangers, sending Ye Qiu in first seemed like a fine option.
"Alright, let’s do it your way."
Guan Shan agreed, and in the hands tied behind Ye Qiu’s back, a first-class Crystal Stone rapidly shrank. In almost the blink of an eye, a first-class Crystal Stone was completely depleted, restoring all his strength in an instant. Ye Qiu pretended as if nothing had changed, acting as if he had not recovered at all. This act, he was prepared to play out to the end.
From Guan Shan’s recent words, it seemed he had some knowledge of the Shooting Moon Cave. Since that was the case, Ye Qiu would follow them inside to see what lay ahead, waiting for the right moment to give the five people of the Guan clan a surprise.
As for his safety, as long as the Guan clan members wanted the giant statue carving, they wouldn’t kill him. With this in mind, Ye Qiu was confident he could spar with them.
