460: Chapter 460 Zhao Qian has someone to save him, do you?

Xu Ruyu's face was slightly pale, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat.

His hands were trembling slightly, a sign of excessive consumption of spiritual power.

Although the Acetylene Great Array was powerful, maintaining it required the consumption of a vast amount of Divine Sense and spiritual power.

Although he was already in the Saint Realm, the consumption of facing two Half-step Saint Realm powerhouses while also having to divide his attention to guard against Tian Jianzi was immense.

But he could not fall.

Because Situ E was still inside the Formation.

Situ E saw that the people from the Tianshu Sword Sect had left and that Zhao Qian had also been rescued, while he himself was still trapped in the Great Array, his face instantly turning deathly pale.

Only then did he realize that Xu Ruyu had only let Zhao Qian go, but had not released him.

That Great Array was still operating, and those crimson flames were still burning around him, constantly threatening his life.

"Xu Ruyu!" he shouted sharply, his voice filled with terror and anger, "You let Zhao Qian go, why didn't you let me go?!"

Xu Ruyu turned around, looked at him, and smiled.

In that smile, there was mockery, disdain, and a kind of indescribable... coldness.

"Cult Leader Situ," he said slowly, "Zhao Qian has a Junior Martial Uncle to save him, who do you have to save you? Your followers? Why don't you let them try?"

Hearing this, those followers of the Jile Sect actually retreated, fearing that the flames of the Formation would affect them; how could they dare to come up and save him?

This scene happened right under his nose, and Situ E's expression became even uglier.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but could not utter a single word.

Because he truly had no reinforcements.

The people of the Jile Sect were either dead or injured, and the rest had long since run to the side to watch the spectacle.

Especially those two Early Saint Realm Grand Elders; just now, when the Acetylene Great Array was activated, they had already fled to the distance, not daring to get close at all.

Although they were in the Saint Realm, they had seen the terror of Xu Ruyu's Great Array with their own eyes, so how could they dare to come and throw their lives away?

Situ E's gaze slowly turned to the distance.

There, Cang Songzi, Cang Bozi, and Cang Yunzi were standing far away.

They had originally come to watch the spectacle and to wrap things up.

They thought that with Situ E and Zhao Qian taking action, Xu Ruyu would surely die.

They didn't expect that Xu Ruyu would actually have a trump card like the Acetylene Great Array.

When those crimson flames filled the sky and shot upwards, the expressions of the three changed simultaneously.

They remembered what happened with Xu Ruyu at Tianyin Mountain.

At that time, Xu Ruyu entered the Taihu Forbidden Array and only took one day to break that ancient Forbidden Array, which had been passed down for ten thousand years.

It wasn't by force, nor by recklessness, but by understanding the Formation from within, reversing the roles, and turning the Forbidden Array to his own use.

At that time, the entire Taihu Clan was shocked.

And now, Xu Ruyu had set up this unheard-of Acetylene Great Array, trapping two Half-step Saint Realm powerhouses inside, unable to move.

The level of sophistication of this Formation was no less than the Taihu Forbidden Array.

Those Array Pattern, those flames, were not the methods of a traditional Cultivator. This was a Formation Genius, a person who could create miracles.

Cang Songzi looked at the flames filling the sky, was silent for a moment, and then slowly retreated a few steps.

Cang Bozi asked in a low voice: "Big Brother, we..."

"Retreat."

Cang Songzi only said one word.

The three retreated far away, withdrawing outside the influence range of the Acetylene Great Array.

They stood there, watching Xu Ruyu in the Formation, watching the trapped Situ E, without saying a word.

Situ E saw them, and a glimmer of hope burst forth in his eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Cang Songzi!" he shouted, his voice filled with pleading, "Save me! Is your Taihu Clan really going to stand by and watch me die? We are allies, you promised me that we would deal with the Hehuan Sect together; you cannot abandon your allies now!"

Cang Songzi did not speak, just watched him quietly.

Cang Bozi and Cang Yunzi also did not speak.

They just stood there, watching from afar.

Situ E's eyes were filled with despair.

He knew that Cang Songzi and the others would not intervene.

They were afraid.

They were afraid of Xu Ruyu.

They were afraid of this Great Array.

They were afraid that they would end up like him, trapped inside and burned to ashes.

"Cang Songzi!" Situ E roared, his voice filled with despair and anger, "Your Taihu Clan is treacherous! Are you not afraid that if this gets out, you will be mocked by others?!"

Cang Songzi finally spoke, his voice still calm, as calm as if he were talking about something unrelated to himself: "Cult Leader Situ, this is a grudge between you and Xu Ruyu, and has nothing to do with my Taihu Clan."

We are just passing by, watching the spectacle."

Fire was almost spewing from Situ E's eyes, but he knew that saying anything was useless.

Cang Songzi would not save him.

No one would save him.

He could only rely on himself.

He turned his head and looked at Xu Ruyu, his eyes filled with hatred and unwillingness.

"Xu Ruyu," he said word by word, his voice as cold as frost, "Do you think this broken Formation can trap me for a lifetime? When I get out, I will definitely tear you into a thousand pieces!"

Xu Ruyu looked at him and smiled.

"Cult Leader Situ, if you have the energy to bark there, you might as well save some strength to deal with the situation ahead. I hope you don't die too quickly and disgrace the name of the Jile Sect Leader."

After speaking, he suddenly pressed his hands down, and the flames in the Acetylene Great Array instantly surged!

Situ E's face turned completely ashen.

He turned his head and looked towards the direction of Cang Songzi and the other two in the distance, his eyes filled with pleading.

"Save me..." his voice was hoarse, filled with endless despair, "I beg you... save me..."
