Chapter 211: Surprise Attack

Senior Brother Yang Qi and Senior Brother Ren Hao stared nervously at Xiao Fan…

They were worried about what they would do if he decided to make a move against them…

They currently had over twenty people here, which meant over twenty points…

With Xiao Fan's strength, their group was simply no match for him.

As for the other Disciples, they didn't think that far ahead.

After a moment, Xiao Fan sighed, fixed his gaze on the two of them, and said indifferently, "How about this, I'll travel with you for the time being?"

Hearing this, the two of them let out a collective sigh of relief…

As long as he didn't kill them, it was fine…

"T-That's fine."

Senior Brother Yang Qi agreed, and Senior Brother Ren Hao said nothing else.

"Good. Then you lead the way, and I'll just follow."

Xiao Fan nodded. He planned to follow them for a few days to get a sense of the situation inside the Secret Realm.

According to what they said, over five thousand people had entered, which meant over five thousand victory points.

There was no need to fight to the death in the first few days…

Only to let others benefit in the end. He was very unfamiliar with this place, so it was better to get his bearings before doing anything else.

With Xiao Fan joining them, the Aura of Senior Brother Yang Qi and Senior Brother Ren Hao's group became several times stronger than before.

The group waited in place for another half a day before setting off.

This was the time they had agreed upon before entering the Secret Realm; everyone was to reach the rendezvous point within half a day.

If they exceeded this time…

Then they could only wish each other good luck.

This Secret Realm was like a Small World. Xiao Fan followed Senior Brother Yang Qi, Senior Brother Ren Hao, and the others as they ran dozens of miles forward, eventually seeing a crystal-clear lake.

"There's water… let's go replenish our supply," Senior Brother Yang Qi said.

No one objected. One by one, they landed by the lake and ran toward the water.

The lake was clear, reflecting the scenery on the shore… A breeze blew past, carrying the humidity of the water, feeling cool and comfortable.

Senior Brother Yang Qi, Senior Brother Ren Hao, Song Chen, and the others had already reached the lake, and several people had already stepped into it.

At that moment, Xiao Fan, who had been standing at the very back of the crowd, suddenly frowned!

"Watch out!"

Xiao Fan shouted. The people who had just rushed to the edge of the lake were all stunned…

In that instant, dozens of silver lights shot out from the lake. Upon closer inspection, they were actually flying knives!

"It's an ambush! Be careful!"

Senior Brother Yang Qi roared!

This sudden attack came so abruptly that no one was prepared, and many were wounded immediately!

Among them, Senior Brother Yang Qi's arm was slashed by a flying knife…

Senior Brother Ren Hao was alright; he dodged quickly and wasn't injured since he was further from the water.

But everyone else was injured.

More than half of them fell to the ground!

"Damn it, what's going on?"

"There are enemies! There are enemies here!"

“Heavens, how could anyone be hiding in the water!”

“…”

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Three young men in blue robes leaped out of the lake. Each of them possessed a very powerful Aura and the cultivation of the Tongtian Realm.

One of them sneered, "I didn't expect to be discovered by you. We wanted to take you all out with a sneak attack, but a few of you managed to stay uninjured."

The other two also sneered, looking around at Senior Brother Yang Qi and the others. "Hand over your tokens, or crush them yourselves and leave."

"Guan Hun, Zhang Ping, Rao Xiong…"

The faces of Senior Brother Yang Qi and Senior Brother Ren Hao turned ashen… as did the others. The three men opposite them were famous figures in the Outer Sect, all at the First Level of the Tongtian Realm.

In other words, anyone in the Outer Sect who reached the Tongtian Realm was a celebrity!

Senior Brother Yang Qi and Senior Brother Ren Hao were leading the team this time, but now, except for the two of them and Xiao Fan, everyone else was injured and unable to continue fighting!

Furthermore, the opponents were three powerful Tongtian Realm experts!

How could they fight this?

Xiao Fan's expression remained calm, though he was also internally startled. He hadn't expected the opponents to be hiding in the lake… setting an ambush.

Although there were restrictions here and no stealth-type Cultivation Techniques or Magical Artifacts could be used…

The suppression of cultivation Realms still existed.

Those in the Huaqi Realm could not detect the cultivation of those in the Tongtian Realm… and as long as the three didn't release their Killing Intent and deliberately hid themselves, it was very difficult for those with lower cultivation to sense them.

Xiao Fan had been relatively far away just now, and it was only in that split second that he sensed the opponent's Killing Intent, which allowed him to notice them.

One of the Tongtian Realm youths scanned the surroundings with a sneer, as if admiring his spoils of war.

Finally, his gaze swept over Xiao Fan, and he froze.

White robes, single arm…

"Xiao Fan!"

One of them cried out in surprise. The other two followed his gaze and cried out as well.

"It really is him, Ninth Level of the Huaqi Realm!"

"The strongest of this year's Outer Sect Disciples. I don't know what method he used to defeat Deacon Sun, but I never thought we'd run into him here."

The two spoke one after another, their gazes becoming somewhat solemn…

Xiao Fan's expression was calm. He glanced at the three of them and remained silent.

From the Aura of these three, they seemed to have just stepped into the Tongtian Realm not long ago, all at the First Level of the Tongtian Realm.

"He only has one arm now, so his combat power must be greatly reduced. Even if his own strength is comparable to the Tongtian Realm, so what? Are the three of us supposed to be afraid of him!"

One of the Tongtian Realm experts spoke… the other two nodded.

Clearly, they didn't intend to let Xiao Fan go.

As for Senior Brother Yang Qi, Senior Brother Ren Hao, and the dozen or so injured people, they didn't take them seriously at all.

Every small Realm provided an earth-shattering increase in strength, let alone the gap between the Tongtian Realm and the Huaqi Realm!

Senior Brother Yang Qi, Senior Brother Ren Hao, and those with minor injuries retreated one after another… their expressions solemn.

They all knew that against three Tongtian Realm experts, their side was simply no match.

One had to know that there were only a few dozen people who had reached the Tongtian Realm participating in this Inner Sect Disciple Examination…

If calculated by strength, the three in front of them were guaranteed to enter the Inner Sect!

"Damn it, I never thought we'd run into such a strong group!"

Senior Brother Yang Qi cursed under his breath…

"What do we do?"

Senior Brother Ren Hao asked with a grim expression, "They seem to have set their sights on Xiao Fan…"
