Chapter 3830 Who doesn’t hide their strength?
"You… you are also an Immortal Lord? How is this possible?"
Dongfang Daoyuan was utterly shocked. He had thought that by hiding his strength, he held the trump card, but he never expected the other party had also been concealing her strength, not yielding an inch to him.
But seeing the Primordial Soul Fruit becoming increasingly ripe, with not much time left until it could be picked, he couldn't afford to hesitate any longer and unleashed another sword strike.
Jin Meier flipped her wrist, took out a short spear, and engaged him in battle.
The two fought inextricably, but comparatively, Dongfang Daoyuan was at a disadvantage, which infuriated him immensely.
As a Core Disciple of Tiandao Sect, he had always been victorious, and being suppressed by a peer like this was a first.
No matter how enraged he was, strength was strength, and he couldn't gain any advantage.
Seeing the aroma of the Primordial Soul Fruit growing stronger, he couldn't drag it out any longer. He could only abandon his previous idea.
"Fairy Jin, fighting like this is not a solution. If you give me three Primordial Soul Fruits, the rest can be yours. What do you say?"
"Daydreaming! What's mine is mine; I won't give you a single one."
As Jin Meier spoke, she unleashed a punch, sending the other party stumbling back repeatedly.
"You…"
Seeing the other party's assertiveness, Dongfang Daoyuan's eyes blazed with anger. Just then, a clear voice came from behind him.
"Brother Dongfang, we can join forces."
As the voice fell, another figure rapidly approached from a distance. It was Tan Ge from Guiyuan Sect.
Dongfang Daoyuan was somewhat surprised. He didn't understand what the other party meant. He was merely an Immortal Lord at the Middle Stage, completely unqualified to participate in a battle of Immortal Venerables.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Exactly what it sounds like."
Tan Ge chuckled confidently, "We'll work together to take her down. I only need three of these seven fruits."
After he finished speaking, seeing Dongfang Daoyuan's puzzled gaze, his Aura suddenly erupted, revealing that he was also an Immortal Venerable at the Early Stage.
"This…"
Seeing this scene, Dongfang Daoyuan and the surrounding onlookers were startled. No one expected this unassuming Disciple of Guiyuan Sect had also been hiding his strength all along.
Everyone had originally thought that Xifeng Lie was the strongest expert of Guiyuan Sect, but now it seemed everyone had been deceived. This guy was the true number one.
Tan Ge seemed very satisfied with the surrounding reactions, a cold smile playing at the corner of his lips.
He had always been hiding his strength, even willing to let Xifeng Lie stand in front of him.
His original intention was to find an Opportunity to secretly ambush others, such as Dongfang Daoyuan right now.
But the current situation couldn't wait any longer. To get the Primordial Soul Fruit, the two of them had to act quickly.
Otherwise, if they dragged it out, once the fruits ripened and Jin Meier put them into her Storage Ring, it would be difficult to snatch them.
"This guy is actually so insidious."
Dongfang Daoyuan was startled. It turned out he wasn't the only one hiding his strength.
However, he was then filled with joy. This situation was a good thing. Two Immortal Venerables at the Early Stage joining forces could take down Jin Meier.
"Alright, Junior Brother Tan, let's join forces. After we take her down, you get three Primordial Soul Fruits and I get four."
"It's a deal."
Tan Ge nodded, and then the two of them, one on the left and one on the right, surrounded Jin Meier.
Dongfang Daoyuan didn't immediately make a move, speaking again: "Fairy Jin, with the two of us joining forces, you won't be able to stop us no matter what.
A wise person knows when to yield. Leave quickly. Give us these seven fruits. There are countless Opportunities in this Yuangu Secret Realm. It's the Righteous Path to take the Opportunity to find other treasures."
Tan Ge followed up, saying: "That's right, Primordial Soul Fruit, you won't be able to hold onto it. If you keep fighting, you'll only end up severely injured or lose your life, which is completely not worth it.
Leave quickly. This is the wise choice."
Neither of them was in a hurry to attack. If they fought alone, neither of them was a match for Jin Meier. Even if they defeated her together, they would probably suffer injuries themselves.
This was the Yuangu Secret Realm, so the stronger one's strength, the better. They couldn't risk a mutually destructive fight unless absolutely necessary.
In their view, with their combined strength greatly increased, the other party wouldn't be able to refuse to back down.
Indeed, a hint of hesitation flashed in Jin Meier's eyes. Was it truly worth it to continue fighting?
Just then, a familiar voice came.
"Two grown men bullying one woman? Have you no shame?"
As the voice fell, Ye Bufan and Wu Qimei walked over.
"Xiao Fan!"
Seeing Ye Bufan, Jin Meier was filled with joy. Thankfully, her man arrived in time, otherwise, she probably wouldn't have been able to keep these fruits.
Ye Bufan was also overjoyed to see the seven Primordial Soul Fruits. He had been unable to improve his Mental Energy recently, and he never expected to encounter such a treasure.
"You're really lucky; you're still not dead yet."
Although the other party ultimately won the Hundred Champions Competition, Tan Ge still didn't pay him any mind.
"Since you're here, let's make things clear. Hand over those seven Primordial Soul Fruits, and we'll spare your lives."
Ye Bufan turned his head and glanced at the two, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.
"Two Immortal Venerables at the Early Stage, huh? You're both quite good at hiding your strength. But so what? These fruits are mine, and they have nothing to do with you."
"Seeking death!"
A ruthless glint flashed in Tan Ge's eyes. He secretly sent a voice transmission to Dongfang Daoyuan, "Brother Dongfang, you hold off that woman, and I'll take down this brat. Then those seven fruits will be ours."
According to his plan, as long as he captured Ye Bufan, Jin Meier would surely yield. Then, the two of them could easily obtain the Primordial Soul Fruit.
As for Ye Bufan's strength, he didn't even consider it. With his strength as an Immortal Venerable at the Early Stage, taking down the other party would be as easy as flipping his hand.
Dongfang Daoyuan thought the same. Upon receiving the voice transmission, he immediately flashed and blocked Jin Meier's path.
At the same time, Tan Ge, like lightning, arrived in front of Ye Bufan and reached out to grab his neck.
But before he could even touch the other party, a slap echoed in his ear.
Immediately after, his entire body shot backward like a cannonball, breaking more than a dozen towering trees before he barely managed to stabilize himself.
At this moment, half of his cheekbone was caved in, and all his teeth had been shaken out.
"You… you…"
Tan Ge spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his face filled with shock.
He truly couldn't understand how the other party could be so strong. A single slap had completely shattered his protective Immortal Qi. What kind of strength did that require? Was he even stronger than himself?
Dongfang Daoyuan on the side was also like this. Jin Meier stood there motionless, showing no reaction, which he found a bit strange.
It turned out Ye Bufan was actually so strong, more powerful than either of them, and didn't need any help at all.
Seeing their astonished gazes, Ye Bufan smiled slightly.
"What's so strange? In this day and age, who doesn't hide a little strength?"
"You…"
Dongfang Daoyuan and the other were speechless. They never dreamed that the other party had hidden his strength so deeply. He was truly worthy of being the champion of the Hundred Champions Competition.
"Alright, I'm a very reasonable person. Since you didn't harm Mei'er, I won't harm you either.
However, since you wanted to snatch my treasures, it would be impolite not to show some appreciation. So, hand over all your Storage Rings."
Dongfang Daoyuan's expression changed drastically. He instinctively took two steps back, guarding his Storage Ring. "Dream on! Don't forget, I am a person of Tiandao Sect."
