475: Retreat to advance

Ding Fu smiled at Cold Sect Leader and the others, saying, "Everyone, those who know the times are the wise. I, Fatty Ding, may not have other skills, but my judgment is still quite good."

"How about this? Whoever among you is willing to join us, I can put in a word with this Fellow Daoist. If you want to die together with Leng Qianjie, then just stand there and don't move!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd glared at each other.

Everyone knew that this Fatty Ding loved nothing more than changing with the wind.

They didn't expect him to defect so quickly. One had to know, even if it was three against six, the advantage was still on their side!

Was this Fatty Ding crazy?

Cold Sect Leader... that is, Leng Qianjie, looked at Lin Ye before him and said in a deep voice, "How about this? Let us all enter together. As for who obtains the Opportunity, it will depend on each person's ability."

"After all, no one knows what is inside. If we start fighting amongst ourselves here, even if we enter, we might not necessarily be able to obtain the Opportunity."

"Furthermore, once the commotion becomes too loud and those from the Righteous Path discover our tracks, none of us will have a chance!"

Hearing this, Mo Yunshang's fiery red lips curled up slightly, her world-toppling face bearing a hint of disdain.

"What? Is our Cold Sect Leader planning to give in? But don't forget, it seemed like you wanted to burn bridges after crossing them earlier! With such character, even if we enter the cave together and encounter some great Opportunity, wouldn't we just end up fighting anyway?"

"..."

Facing Mo Yunshang's mockery, Leng Qianjie took a deep breath. He knew that now was not the time for anger.

The fate of Li Kuang and Liu Yuming was still vivid in his mind, and now Ding Fu had joined the other two.

Even if it were six against three, Leng Qianjie's heart still held a trace of unease.

As a Saint, any intuition had its traces. Since his heart was uneasy, he naturally had to use the most secure method to resolve it.

Therefore, calling a truce with Lin Ye and the others now was the most correct choice.

Ding Fu's squinty eyes looked toward Lin Ye. After discovering that he remained indifferent, his heart rejoiced. It seemed that this time, he hadn't chosen the wrong side.

With such a confident appearance, dealing with these people would surely be as easy as flipping one's hand.

The reason why Ding Fu's personality of playing both sides had allowed him to live so long and possess such impressive cultivation was entirely due to his luck, and also because he dared to gamble.

'When something is abnormal, there must be a demon.' This saying was always firmly kept in Ding Fu's heart.

He had previously seen Lin Ye appear with his own eyes, killing Li Kuang and then Liu Yuming. His momentum was unmatched, and he was still so young.

Such an abnormal event made him immediately decide to take a gamble, and sure enough, he had bet correctly again.

Now, seeing that Lin Ye did not speak, Ding Fu smiled slightly and said to Leng Qianjie and the others, "Cold Sect Leader, everyone present is a Sect Master or Clan Chief. Do they all take you as their leader? You say fight, so we fight; you say make peace, so we make peace?"

Damn Fatty Ding!

Although he knew that Ding Fu was sowing discord, Leng Qianjie could only curse him silently in his heart.

After all, Ding Fu was on the same side as Lin Ye now. If he were to attack him, who knew if Lin Ye might also suddenly attack? That would be a complete disaster.

"Sect Master Ding, I am merely speaking on behalf of everyone. We are all leaders of our own sects and clans, so naturally, there is no question of who follows whom. Moreover, surely Sect Master Ding would not want to see us killing each other, right?"

"Hehe..."

Hearing Leng Qianjie's words, Ding Fu sneered, "Forget it. Look at the disgusting way you schemed against Mo Clan Leader earlier. When Li Kuang and Liu Yuming were heavily injured, you never once offered a hand."

"How is such conduct any different from a beast?! Although I, Fatty, am a Demonic Path cultivator, I disdain to associate with despicable people like you. You simply bring shame to our Demonic Path!"

"???"

Ding Fu's upright and righteous appearance left the group of Great Power Experts full of question marks.

Good grief, have you become a righteous person now?

And what was that about not being different from a beast, or disdaining to associate with despicable people?

Aren't the things you mentioned things that all of us did?

When Mo Yunshang was schemed against, or when Liu Yuming and Li Kuang were killed, we didn't see you step up! Yet now you stand on the moral high ground and point fingers at us.

Sure enough, when a person is shameless, they are invincible!

Seeing the gazes of the crowd, Ding Fu felt not a shred of guilt. He clasped his hands behind his back, a tragic and heroic look appearing on his face.

Those who didn't know better would really think he was some kind of good person.

Seeing Ding Fu like this, Leng Qianjie knew that talking nonsense with him was useless. Furthermore, it was obvious that both Ding Fu and Mo Yunshang were following the lead of that young man. Since that was the case, it would be better to speak directly to him.

"This... Fellow Daoist!"

He had intended to call him 'little friend,' but thinking of the strength Lin Ye displayed in killing Li Kuang and Liu Yuming, calling him 'little friend' was clearly inappropriate, so he could only call him 'Fellow Daoist.'

Leng Qianjie said calmly, "We are willing to apologize for the previous matters. After entering the cave, how about you choose the Opportunity first? If there is only one Opportunity, then we shall each rely on our own abilities!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye shook his head.

Seeing Lin Ye shake his head, Leng Qianjie frowned slightly and said coldly, "What? Is this not enough? Could it be that, just as you said before, you want all the Opportunities?!"

"What? Does Cold Sect Leader have an objection?"

Swish!

A Spirit Sword appeared directly in Lin Ye's hand. Holding the Spirit Sword, the Aura on his body became sharp once again.

Feeling the trembling of his Divine Soul, Leng Qianjie lowered his head to ponder for a moment, then began to communicate with the people around him.

After a long while, he raised his head, his eyes carrying a hint of inexplicable meaning.

"Fine, since you, Fellow Daoist, are so greedy, this Opportunity is yours! We will not take a single bit. We shall take our leave now!"

Having said this, Leng Qianjie and the remaining five Great Power Experts turned around, intending to leave.

Seeing this scene, Ding Fu became somewhat anxious.

None of them were good people; who didn't know what the other side was thinking!

It sounded like Leng Qianjie and the others were giving up on the Opportunity, but in reality, they were clearly advancing by retreating, planning to leave here first and then plot slowly.

Once Lin Ye came out with the Opportunity, they only needed to surround this place. When the time came, wouldn't it be up to them to decide?

Furthermore, he had already offended them! When the time came...

Hum!

Just as Ding Fu was feeling anxious, he saw blood Qi suddenly permeate from the cave entrance outside. That surging blood Qi completely sealed the entire entrance.

Leng Qianjie and the others wanted to use their spiritual power to break through the blockade, but as soon as their spiritual power touched the blood Qi, it was directly devoured!

"Hmm?"

Leng Qianjie turned around and looked coldly at Lin Ye.

"This Fellow Daoist, what is the meaning of this? Since we have already agreed, why do you still have to seal the entrance? Didn't you say you wanted it all? Is it not enough that we are leaving?!"
