Chapter 1870 If you lose, you lose

There was a muffled thud, and the golden shield rippled with golden light, but it still looked very sturdy and blocked the attacks of the four Yao Beasts.

The golden shield was shimmering but transparent, allowing them to see everything outside clearly.

Seeing their prey right in front of them but unable to get it, the Liekong Leopards went mad, frantically attacking the golden shield.

They bit, they scratched, they rammed with their bodies.

But no matter how furiously they attacked, the shield remained impregnable, showing no signs of breaking.

Seeing that the danger was temporarily averted, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Youyou said, "This is the King Kong Shield, a defensive Spirit Treasure my father gave me, but it can only last for a quarter of an hour at most. Everyone must come up with a plan within this time."

A quarter of an hour?

Hearing that the duration was so short, and with no sign of the four big guys outside retreating, the hearts that had just settled down immediately tensed up again.

At the same time, the entire shield fell silent.

The four Liekong Leopards outside were four Void Refining Realm experts. In this situation, they couldn't fight them, nor could they run away, so what plan could they possibly come up with?

As time passed little by little, the golden light on the golden shield began to dim, and the ripples it generated grew larger, clearly indicating it was approaching the verge of collapse.

Chen Youyou anxiously said, "Senior Brother, quickly think of something! My King Kong Shield seems to be giving out."

Di Rong's expression was grim. His gaze swept over Ye Bufan before he finally said, "In this situation, it's impossible for all five of us to escape unharmed. We can only make a final desperate attempt and see who survives."

Hu Yaoyao's expression was also unprecedentedly serious: "If you have a plan, speak it out so everyone can hear."

Di Rong said, "I have some research on Yao Beasts. These four Liekong Leopards, from their appearance, are two males and two females, so they should be two pairs."

Chen Youyou asked in surprise, "How does that relate to us?"

"Of course it relates," Di Rong said. "Once Liekong Leopards form a family, they generally don't separate. In this situation, the four of them are essentially two groups.

We should prepare now. Once the King Kong Shield breaks, we immediately flee in five different directions.

In this situation, the Liekong Leopards can only pursue two targets, and the remaining three people will

be able to survive.

As for who lives and who dies, that will depend on personal luck and cultivation."

As he spoke, he glanced at Ye Bufan again, a sneer appearing at the corner of his mouth.

He wasn't overly panicked at the moment, because as a Void Refining Realm expert, he had the ability to escape on his own if absolutely necessary, even if it meant abandoning the others.

On the other hand, this fellow with only Nascent Soul Stage cultivation was doomed to die, but he was somewhat useful now, as he could help lure away one group of Liekong Leopards.

He just couldn't understand why this guy still looked so calm, as if he didn't care at all.

"No!" As soon as Di Rong finished speaking, Chen Youyou stood up to object. "Big Brother only has Nascent Soul Stage cultivation; how could he escape?"

Di Rong sneered, "Then there's nothing we can do. I said when we first entered the mountain that low cultivation is not suitable for deep exploration. If he insisted on coming, who can he blame?

Besides, this is the situation now. Do any of you have any better ideas besides this?"

Everyone fell into a brief silence again. Indeed, apart from Di Rong's idea, no one else could come up with any other solution.

A moment later, Hu Yaoyao said with a determined expression, "Xiao Age is my man. I brought him here, so I am naturally responsible for his safety.

This is what we'll do: once the King Kong Shield breaks, you all flee in different directions, and I'll take Xiao Age and escape."

Ye Bufan had originally thought this woman was just saying things casually, using him as a shield, but he hadn't expected her not to abandon him at this moment. A trace of emotion stirred in his heart.

"Are you stupid?" Di Rong said angrily. "Liekong Leopards are known for their speed. None of us can escape alone, and you're bringing a burden. In the end, both of you will just die together!"

"This is my own business. If we're truly unlucky, then we'll die together."

Hu Yaoyao's expression was originally firm and serious, but at the end, she looked at Ye Bufan and smiled charmingly, "Xiao Age, if Lu Xueman knew we died together, would she be so jealous she'd die?"

Ye Bufan's face was full of black lines. He really didn't know what kind of thought process this woman had, always wanting to compare herself to Lu Xueman.

He waved his hand and said, "Alright, don't make it sound like a life-and-death farewell. It's just four Liekong Leopards. We just need to find a way to deal with them."

Di Rong sneered, "Easier said than done.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

If you're capable, why don't you come up with a plan and show us?"

Ye Bufan ignored his sarcasm and smiled slightly: "You're right, I actually do have a plan."

Hearing him say he had a plan, Chen Youyou immediately said excitedly, "Big Brother, really? Do you really have a good plan? Quickly tell us so everyone can hear it."

"Junior Sister, you believe everything. So many of us couldn't come up with a solution, what plan could he possibly have?

Even if he used himself to feed the Liekong Leopards, a hundred-plus jin wouldn't be enough."

Indeed, he was quite knowledgeable, and he saw this situation as a dead end, unable to think of any solution.

"Is Young Master Di so certain?"

Seeing this guy repeatedly provoke him, Ye Bufan looked at him and said, "Since that's the case, do you dare to make a bet with me?"

At this moment, Di Rong naturally wouldn't show weakness, and he sneered, "Speak, what do you want to bet?"

"If I can find a way to deal with these four big guys and get all five of us out of danger safely, then you give me that golden sword of yours."

After Ye Bufan finished speaking, his gaze fell on the golden treasured sword on Di Rong's back. Although this item couldn't compare to the Divine Artifact Dragon Tooth, it looked pretty good and could be considered a Sharp Weapon.

"No way, this is my family's heirloom Divine Weapon, how could I give it to you?"

Hearing that the other party was eyeing his golden sword, Di Rong refused immediately.

Ye Bufan mocked with a laugh, "Didn't you say I definitely couldn't come up with a plan? Why are you still afraid?

Does the dignified Young Master Di not even have this much courage left? How will Junior Brother look at you, how will Junior Sister look at you? How will our Yaoyao look at you?"

Originally, this was just a simple provocation, but Di Rong couldn't stand it.

He had always been interested in Hu Yaoyao, and he had always looked down on this guy in front of him.

Being provoked face-to-face by a small Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, if he backed down again, where would his face be?

Most importantly, he couldn't imagine what plan the other party could have to resolve four Liekong Leopards at once.

"It's just a bet, what's the big deal? I'll bet with you," Di Rong said angrily. "If I lose, I'll give you the golden sword. What if you lose?"

Ye Bufan chuckled and said nonchalantly, "If I lose, I lose, what else can I do?"
