Chapter 297 Supplies (3)
Seeing that his jade slip had not been sent, Master Taiming became somewhat flustered. He knew that he could not defeat the enemy in front of him, but after looking at it carefully, his flustered state subsided a bit.
“You, a mere Golden Core cultivator, dare to cause trouble at my Tai’an granary? The three of us brothers will surely kill you today. Your coming alone is the stupidest thing you’ve ever done.”
Gu Yuchuan didn't know where his opponent's confidence came from. Didn't he see it? He could easily block that sneak attack. Why did he think he couldn't win so easily? Besides, his news couldn't get out at all. How could it be three against one? This guy didn't seem to be thinking straight.
That's true. This Master Taiming comes from a good family. He was a pampered young master at home. After joining the immortal sect, he was spoiled because of his good aptitude. Later, he came to this granary with his two senior brothers. Because he was young and had high aptitude, his two senior brothers treated him very well. He was very simple-minded, and you could even say that he had a problem with his character.
Gu Yuchuan didn't say anything, and casually sent out an ice flower. The ice flower spun in the air, and the temperature dropped instantly. Even Taiming Zhenren's face was covered in frost. Although it was just a casual strike from Gu Yuchuan, its destructive power was considerable, even extremely large, making it difficult for the opponent to withstand.
As expected, although Master Taiming fired a cannon, it did nothing to stop the ice flowers. The ice flowers landed on his head, their stamens scattered, and the icy aura froze him completely, leaving him utterly powerless to resist. This was the difference in raw strength; he had no way to truly stop Gu Yuchuan, nor could he survive.
However, Gu Yuchuan was not going to kill them now. He was afraid that if he killed them now, his two brothers would sense it. Although he was not afraid at all and felt that he would win, it was best not to fight for the time being. Otherwise, their fight might attract the attention of others or damage the grain, which would be bad. The most important thing now was to get the grain.
He continued to pack the grain quickly, his hands moving very fast. However, there was so much grain here that he had only collected about a third of it in a quarter of an hour. After all, it was very difficult to pack grain using only this specific storage bag. Gu Yuchuan complained inwardly, but his hands moved very fast, showing no signs of slowing down. Gradually, the grain here was running out, but then, an unexpected event occurred.
Master Tai'an finally realized something was wrong. They were supposed to exchange intelligence every two hours, and his junior brother should have sent his message a quarter of an hour ago, but he hadn't. He keenly sensed that something was amiss. So, the two of them rushed over and saw the concealment formation that Gu Yuchuan had set up outside. They exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes, and a sense of panic gripped them.
But now that they've seen it all, leaving is unrealistic. Besides, their junior brother is still inside. They haven't sensed his death, which means he's still alive and well. They can't abandon him. They can only grit their teeth and start breaking the formation. However, Gu Yuchuan's formation is just a large formation for trapping and concealing people. It's difficult to get out from inside, but it's easy to break from the outside.
Gu Yuchuan, who was harvesting grain, sensed the arrival of the enemy outside. His face was very ugly. It was really annoying. He had only harvested half of the grain when it was discovered. This was definitely something to be angry about.
However, he wasn't the only one who was angry. The two cultivators first saw the blood and corpses all over the ground, which belonged to those low-level spirit cultivators. Then, they saw their junior brother frozen into an ice sculpture. They were so angry that their faces turned red.
Master Tai'an said to his junior brother, "Go and rescue our junior brother. I'll go and deal with this enemy."
He was a cultivator at the fourth level of the Golden Core stage, and now, he was the only one who could step forward. However, Master Taishan himself was a little afraid. He was even worried about his senior brother. If something happened to his senior brother, he didn't know what to do.
"Senior brother, you must be careful. This enemy captured junior brother so easily, so he must be very strong. Senior brother, hold him off for now. Once I rescue junior brother, the three of us can set up a formation together. That way, our chances of winning will be much higher. You absolutely must be careful, senior brother."
His tone was very sincere, clearly these were his heartfelt words. Master Tai'an nodded vigorously: "Junior brother, don't worry, I will be careful. You also need to hurry up. Today, the three of us brothers will have a good fight with this enemy."
Gu Yuchuan was forced to witness such a heartwarming scene of brotherhood, but he dared not move at all, and even felt irritated, because he was the bad guy, the enemy standing in front of the brothers.
He even clapped: "What a touching brotherhood! Since you are brothers, then I will be merciful and send you to be with him."
After saying that, he was about to make a move, but the Tai'an Master cursed again: "You wretched creature, you have committed such an outrageous act in my Tai'an granary. We three brothers are not some powerless trash. Today, you will surely die by our hands."
However, it can only be said that the idea is good, but whether or not you can win is never about what you say, but about what you actually do.
Gu Yuchuan unleashed his golden and silver twin scissors, which entangled his opponent, leaving him momentarily unable to make any decisions and only able to deal with the two dragons. Gu Yuchuan, meanwhile, continued collecting the grain; his most important task now was to gather all the grain in front of him.
Now, the three of them each have their own things to do. Tai'an Zhenren and Jin Yin Shuangjian are locked in a fierce battle, while Gu Yuchuan is frantically gathering grain. As for the remaining Taishan Zhenren, he is rescuing his junior brother. Although the ice flower was just a casual attack from Gu Yuchuan, his water control talent is extremely powerful. Even a casual attack would take a Golden Core Stage 3 cultivator some time to neutralize.
Thus, an eerie calm descended upon the granary, with everyone busy with their own tasks.
After a stick of incense had burned, Gu Yuchuan finally finished collecting all the grain. His main task was complete, and he felt relieved, now having the energy to deal with his subordinates.
