Chapter 1157: Array Follows Heart
After saying this, Gu Yan looked at them with a calm expression. In his view, saying such things would definitely scare them off, so they would certainly step aside!
However, he was wrong!
Because after he spoke, the three of them had no intention to move aside at all...
Narrowing his eyes slightly, Gu Yan sneered, "It seems like you guys haven't died before. If that's the case, then go die!"
Coldly finishing his words, Gu Yan quickly released the aura from his body.
In an instant, the three felt like they were trapped in a terrifying mire...
The gap is immense!
At this moment, they genuinely realized the gap between themselves and him was enormous...
But even knowing this, they still had no intention of retreating, because they knew that if they stepped back now, they would be letting Xiaobei down...
"This life was given by Xiaobei, so it doesn't matter if it's given away now."
Thinking this, they all looked at Gu Yan with nonchalance.
"It looks like you really have no intention of stepping aside. If that's the case, then..."
Before he could finish, Gu Yan suddenly stopped, because at that moment, a calm voice came from the deep pit behind him.
"Our contest isn't over yet, and you're already thinking about dealing with my people. That's not good!"
Gu Yan's face changed dramatically as he quickly looked towards the pit, feeling like he was hearing things, because dead people don't speak...
"Captain, you're okay?"
While Gu Yan was in shock, the three of them spoke with extreme excitement...
They were crying tears of joy at the moment, as if the clouds had cleared to reveal the moon...
"What would happen to me? Can such trash really hurt me?"
As he spoke calmly, the footsteps grew closer.
They turned their heads and finally saw Hu Xiaobei standing behind them with a composed look...
"Completely uninjured!"
Seeing Hu Xiaobei's calm demeanor, they confirmed he was completely unscathed.
"That's impossible! That terrifying attack just now couldn't have failed to harm you, it couldn't!"
Seeing Hu Xiaobei standing intact in front of him, Gu Yan felt as if he was dying inside.
Earlier, that was his most terrifying attack ever, so he really thought Hu Xiaobei would at least be heavily injured.
And now, Hu Xiaobei was unharmed...
Hearing such words difficult to accept, Hu Xiaobei smiled lazily and said calmly, "If that lousy attack could really break through my defense, it might have hurt me, but unfortunately, it couldn't even break my defense."
"You... that's impossible!"
Shouting hysterically, Gu Yan quickly condensed a long sword again, and once it was formed, he thrust it directly at Hu Xiaobei...
"Captain, watch out!"
The three of them didn't expect him to suddenly attack, so they couldn't react and could only call out urgently.
"Won't cry until seeing the coffin, huh?"
Seeing the sharp sword thrusting at him, Hu Xiaobei shook his head lightly.
Soon, Hu Xiaobei reached out and grasped the sword...
The moment Hu Xiaobei seized it, a mocking look flashed in Gu Yan's eyes, but that quickly turned into panic, as he realized that once seized by Hu Xiaobei, he couldn't move any longer...
This...
"Now you see? Our gap is too great, so stop courting death!"
With a cold snort, Hu Xiaobei applied some force and directly broke the sword...
Staring at the shattered sword, Gu Yan looked at Hu Xiaobei with utter despair...
At this moment, he finally believed...
Seeing his look of despair, Hu Xiaobei sneered repeatedly...
To be honest, before absorbing those Wood Series True Qi, dealing with him would have been a bit challenging for Hu Xiaobei!
But after absorbing them, Hu Xiaobei's power increased severalfold, so now he really wasn't a match in front of Hu Xiaobei...
"I lost, really lost!"
Hearing this, Hu Xiaobei said indifferently, "You should take your own life!"
"Take my own life? Why? I haven't lived enough yet!"
With a cold laugh, Gu Yan turned and fled!
In his view, although he wasn't a match for Hu Xiaobei, if he wanted to escape, Hu Xiaobei would have no chance.
A good death is better than a bad life!
He had lived long enough to know this well, so dying was impossible!
The three didn't expect him to just turn and run, so they were dumbstruck!
In their view, he was the type to value status and dignity, so he'd rather take his life than flee, but they were really wrong...
Hu Xiaobei already knew what this guy had in mind, so he wasn't surprised at all when he saw him running away.
Smiling, Hu Xiaobei said to him, "For so many years, you've always been at the level of Array Heart Clarity, aren't you curious about the next level?"
"You... you know?"
Having run more than ten meters away, he stopped quickly upon hearing Hu Xiaobei's words!
Hu Xiaobei wasn't wrong; he had been stuck at the level of Array Heart Clarity for many years...
He felt a bottleneck, but couldn't break through, so he had been trapped for so long...
Now, hearing Hu Xiaobei's words, he eagerly asked!
Though he knew Hu Xiaobei might not be telling the truth, he still wanted to ask...
Glancing at his shocked face, Hu Xiaobei calmly said, "Yes, I know what the next level is!"
Seeing Hu Xiaobei nod, he took a deep breath and asked excitedly!
"What is it? Quickly, tell me, quickly!"
With a faint smile, Hu Xiaobei responded directly, "The so-called next level is Array Follows Heart!"
As he spoke, Hu Xiaobei snapped his fingers, and in an instant, an incredibly complex array instantly formed...
"This..."
As he was pondering, Gu Yan was completely trapped by the spontaneously formed array...
Soon, unable to escape, he was completely obliterated!
"So, I had been on the wrong path all along!"
Before his consciousness faded, Gu Yan murmured softly to himself...
After finishing those words, he fell into boundless darkness...
After he disappeared, Hu Xiaobei stretched his neck, looked at the three, and said, "Now mark yourselves with some injuries so we can act it out a bit later!"
"Act? What kind of act?"
Hearing them ask curiously, Hu Xiaobei chuckled lightly. Soon, he explained the plan to them quickly, and after listening, their eyes lit up instantly...
The next second, they gave Hu Xiaobei a thumbs up!
"Captain, I... I'm really completely convinced now!"
"Yes, Captain, you're truly amazing!"
"Agreed, absolutely!"
After listening to the plan, they were utterly impressed with Hu Xiaobei!
Looking at them, Hu Xiaobei waved and said, "There will be plenty of chances to flatter me later; for now, hurry and do as I said!"
"Alright!"
Agreeing, they quickly started following Hu Xiaobei's instructions.
Seeing their earnestness, Hu Xiaobei smiled...
Five minutes later, Hu Xiaobei heard them ask softly, "Captain Xiaobei, is this okay?"
Hearing this, Hu Xiaobei looked at them and saw they were now in tattered clothes...
"Good, good!"
Praising them gently, Hu Xiaobei dirtied his own clothes a bit, then snapped his fingers, and soon, everyone in The Valley of the Wicked who had fainted earlier woke up again.
"Huh? What happened just now? Why did we all pass out?"
After waking, they thought for a moment, and the next second, they suddenly remembered why they passed out...
"I remember it was that traitor Gu Yan who ambushed us!"
Muttering like this, they quickly looked around, but didn't find any trace of Gu Yan.
Seeing them looking around, Hu Xiaobei coughed dryly and spoke in a somewhat husky voice...
