NOVEL WEB Chapter 150: Getting the Cold Jade Monster Core_3
Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. With Wang Tengfei's arrow strike, considering the state of the Turtle Snake Beast's flesh and mana, the battle was essentially a one-sided crush.
Chen Yi was the only one still observing the situation on all sides of the battlefield seriously,
The Turtle Snake Beast was clearly unable to fight back, but Chen Yi's brows furrowed deeper.
This was because in his eyes, the red Spiritual Light in front of him didn't disperse, instead, the color deepened some more.
The crisis was behind them!
As Chen Yi was about to warn the others,
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Suddenly, two streaks of Sword Light plunged from the sky, directly into the wound on the back of the Turtle Snake Beast.
The resultant surge of Sword Energy exploded within its wound and spread to its limbs, dispersing several dozens of feet away, nearly injuring Song Chengcheng and the others.
"Roar——"
The Turtle Snake Beast let out a miserable roar and died on the spot.
"Hahaha! Heaven has favored us, brothers. We have watched over this Cold Jade Turtle Snake for two years, and we finally managed to kill it when it emerged!"
"Hahaha! You're right, Senior Brother. We must thank Junior Sister Song for blocking the Turtle Snake Beast for a while, so we were able to arrive and kill it in time!"
"Junior Brother, you're wrong. It's us who arrived in time to save Junior Sister and her friends. If we hadn't come, they would have died in this Extreme Cold Storm!"
"Eh? You're right, Senior Brother! You're just a bit smarter than me. Let's quickly take the Monster Core. Junior Brother Tan will surely thank us for this. Plus, Junior Sister Song might thank us too for saving her, hehe~"
As the voices of the two men got closer, they arrived swiftly, settling on the tree trunks mid-air. They were laughing, but their eyes were coldly fixated on Song Chengcheng and Wang Tengfei.
These two men were none other than Wang Qiang and Chen Hu, the senior brothers they had encountered earlier.
At this moment, Song Chengcheng and the others realized what had happened. They were robbed of their Demon Beast kill!
"Senior Brother Wang, Senior Brother Chen, what's the meaning of this! It was our combined effort that defeated the Turtle Snake Beast. The spoils of war belong to us. Don't make false accusations!"
Song Chengcheng's face was chilly. She was filled with trepidation and marked by anger. She held her head high and confronted the two senior brothers from her sect.
Wang Tengfei's face was pale. His strike just now had drained his mana. Wang Qiang and Chen Hu took advantage of this situation to brazenly arrive.
Chen Yi gave him a look, and a touch of pain flashed across Wang Tengfei's eyes. He gritted his teeth and swallowed the treasure pill that Chen Yi had prepared for him, a Second Tier Rejuvenation Pill that could restore 80% of his strength in ten breaths of time!
While he was recovering his mana, he and Zhao Chengyu stood behind Song Chengcheng to support her.
Meanwhile, during the standoff, Chen Yi commanded the Purple Sand Mink to burrow into the stomach of the Turtle Snake Beast from underground and snatch the Cold Jade Monster Core.
"Junior Sister, in the Immortal Cultivation World, you should know the rule: the ownership of a monster belongs to the person who delivers the final blow.
You don't need me to explain this principle, do you?"
In mid-air, Wang Qiang said with a complacent smile. Noting that the four people below didn't immediately rush to grab the Monster Corpse, he became somewhat relieved. However, when he saw Wang Tengfei take a pill, and the nearly depleted mana inside him began to surge, his brow furrowed.
If Wang Tengfei could execute another strike like before, even with their combined power, he and his junior brother might not be able to withstand it. If it really came to a fight, it would be troublesome.
"Senior Brother Wang, what are you talking about? It's clearly Wang Tengfei who landed the fatal strike on the Turtle Snake Beast with his Secret Sword Skill. Even if your Flying Swords hadn't arrived, the Turtle Snake Beast would have died!"
With Song Chengcheng standing at the front, arguing her case forcefully,
Chen Yi stood by their side, took the small sand marten that had burrowed out of the ground in his arms, and quickly placed the cold Monster Core into his Storage Bag.
Despite his discreet actions, the two men who had been constantly monitoring the situation on the ground with their Divine Sense noticed him.
"Kid! You're seeking death! How dare you steal our Monster Core!"
Wang Qiang immediately released the pressure of his Foundation Establishment mid-stage, and his mana surged towards Chen Yi intensely!
"Humph! You dare to harm my friend?"
Stepping in front of Chen Yi, Song Chengcheng also released her mana, blocking the pressure for Chen Yi.
So did Wang Tengfei and Zhao Chengyu.
Moved by his three friends' actions, Chen Yi also stepped forward, standing in a line with them.
The Purple Sand Mink stood on Chen Yi's shoulder, its purple stripe glowing, radiating the fluctuations of a Second Tier Great Monster.
Seeing this, Wang Qiang and Chen Hu hesitated. It was true that Tan Feng had requested their help in finding a high-quality Water-Attribute Monster Core, but was it worth it to fight their fellow sect sisters to the death for this? If even one of them escaped, it would be a big deal.
At this moment, Chen Yi spoke,
"Senior Brothers, I recorded the entire process of us defeating the Turtle Snake Beast with my Image Sphere. Our sect's Elders can decide who delivered the last strike."
As he spoke, Chen Yi took out a jade sphere, activated it with his mana, and an image of the Purple Sand Mink using the silver shuttle to lure the Turtle Snake Beast appeared in the air.
Chen Yi fast-forwarded the recording until Wang Tengfei delivered the fatal blow. The two men's Flying Swords were clearly shown to be opportunistic, with no discrepancy in the recording.
Seeing this, a smile appeared on Song Chengcheng's face. She hadn't expected Chen Yi to be so thoughtful as to record the process.
Wang Qiang's face grew even darker.
He hadn't expected this seemingly subordinate character to have actually recorded the event. How many times had this kid been tricked for him to be so careful?
"Junior Sister Song, to be honest, Junior Brother Song Feng offered a high price of 4000 spirit stones for us to help him find a high-quality Water-Attribute Monster Core.
If you've already obtained it, wouldn't it be fine for us to buy it instead of stealing it? I offer 3000 spirit stones for you to sell this Monster Core to me,
Plus, I'll let Junior Brother Song Feng know about this. He will owe you a favor.
After all, the three of you have already achieved Foundation Establishment, and you don't need it. As for your servant, his chance of achieving Foundation Establishment is low. If everything else fails, with 3000 spirit stones, he can buy a Substandard Foundation Establishment Pill. Either way, you all benefit greatly. How about it?"
Servant?
Song Chengcheng looked oddly at Chen Yi,
Then said:
"Chen Yi is my good friend, not a servant. This time, the three of us hunted this Water-Attribute Monster Core specially for him, to use it for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill. The Monster Core now belongs to him, whether to sell or not is his decision."
Upon hearing this, Wang Qiang and Chen Hu in the sky once again turned their sights on Chen Yi,
Chen Yi suddenly felt a mixed pressure of mana and Divine Sense rushing towards him.
