"What if I say no?"
Just as Xu Wan Sheng thought everyone would misunderstand his instructions, an out-of-place voice suddenly came from behind.
It was the nameless swordsman who had just arrived.
Xu Wansheng raised his eyebrow, and his displeasure was clearly reflected on his face, "What do you mean? Without me, your situation may be even more dangerous. Are you going to give up on me? Don't you fear that the trials ahead will cost you your lives? Not to mention the trials ahead, I'm afraid this trial would be difficult for you to pass without my guidance"
"If you truly know how to pass the trial, why hasn't the Holy Sword Sect claimed this secret realm for itself?"
Chen Mo retorted with a sentence, leaving Xu Wansheng speechless.
He opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Then that's because we haven't passed the last test yet".
"Since you haven't passed the final test, that means this last phase doesn't require you. And if it doesn't need you, why bring you up there in the first place? Are you trying to drain our strength to achieve some unknown purpose of the Holy Sword Sect?"
Chen Mo pressed forward step by step, his tone carrying a questioning air. At that moment, Xu Wansheng was at a loss for words, flustered and glancing left and right in search of assistance.
However, upon hearing Chen Mo's words, everyone present looked at him curiously, waiting for his reply.
"I, I ..."
Xu Wansheng stammered, unable to say anything at the moment. Those who had once held hope for him now couldn't miss his intentions.
It seems that, as Chen Mo said, Xu Wansheng merely wanted to drain the strength of others so that the Holy Sword Sect could reap the benefits as a bystander.
"The Holy Sword Sect truly knows how to play a good hand. Hmph, if you want to go up there, it's up to your abilities."
Lin Hao snorted coldly and stepped into the void.
Zhao Wanli and Xue Xing exchanged a glance with each other, and both left Xu Wansheng behind alone.
"You ..."
Xu Wansheng pointed at Chen Mo, glaring at him with teeth gritted and fury in his eyes, wishing to kill him on the spot.
"If you're out and about without any elders by your side, I advise you to be more discreet. Otherwise, you might not even know how you died."
Chen Mo coldly snorted, and the sinister gaze made Xu Wansheng feel defeated.
"Let's go"
Chen Mo glanced to the left and right, then Long Fei Wu placed a hand on Chen Mo's shoulder, lifting him up high with a leap.
Zhang Long rushed to the front of the two, using his hand to pull out a broken saber to clear the way.
In Chen Mo's memory, the waterfall was a thousand feet high, and there were sword qi attacks starting from fifty feet. The higher you went, the stronger the attack. Without a second-grade strength, it would be difficult to reach the top.
With Chen Mo's current strength, he couldn't ascend alone; he would have to rely on the power of Long Fei Wu and Zhang Long.
The three of them formed a triangle, charging up together. From below fifty feet, everything was fine. But from above fifty feet, the sword qi appeared suddenly. If it weren't for his previous experience, Zhang Long might have taken a sword strike as well.
"Break"
Zhang Long swung his sword once, facing the ten or so sword qi attacks. With a single swing, all the sword qi dissipated instantly.
Zhang Long furrowed his brow, "When Lin Hao went up there, he only encountered a few sword qi attacks. Why then, do we encounter ten or more? Is the attack of this waterfall random?"
"No, it's not"
Chen Mo explained, "The intensity of the waterfall's attack is not random. It is enhanced based on the number of people. The more people in a group, the stronger the attacks they have to face. Otherwise, why would Xu Wansheng use such a cunning tactic to weaken our strength? Their Holy Sword Sect is counting on that kind of thinking, using one person to burden everyone."
"If so, then I will also join the battle."
Long Fei Wu thought it over carefully. Chen Mo at present was not suitable to join the battle. If she stood by and did nothing, it would only make Zhang Long's task more difficult.
"No need."
Zhang Long gently waved his hand and directly rejected Long Fei Wu's kindness, "I swore to protect the young master three hundred years ago. For these three hundred years, I have been working hard. If I can't even pass this mere waterfall test on my own, how can I possibly protect the young master?"
"Don't worry, young master. Zhang Long will not disappoint everyone's expectations."
With those words, Zhang Long's gaze was resolute.
Seeing this, Chen Mo did not force it either. He looked at Long Fei Wu and the latter understood, putting away the Empire Sword.
At a hundred feet, the number of sword qi attacks doubled, and the attacks became even more fierce. Zhang Long still easily shattered them.
After that, every fifty feet, the number of sword qi attacks would double from the previous level, until at five hundred feet, the number of sword qi attacks reached an extremely terrifying figure.
The sword qi in the sky resemble stars in the Milky Way, forming a sword rain that falls one after another, striking ferociously. Even Zhang Long, with his strong strength, felt a sense of pressure at this moment.
"Don't worry about anything else. Just break it with a single sword strike. Although there are many, their speed has slowed down. We just need to charge through the breakthrough and this five hundred feet gate will be passed."
As the situation grew increasingly difficult, Chen Mo quickly spoke up to remind.
Zhang Long was startled, and then he followed Chen Mo's words, striking his sword in the air, creating a sword qi that pierced through a hundred feet. He suddenly charged out and directly tore open a large gap.
Seeing this, Long Fei Wu also realized that the situation was becoming increasingly urgent. If she continued to carry Chen Mo, it would slow down their speed. Without a second thought, she twisted her right hand, taking Chen Mo by surprise. Chen Mo fell perfectly into her arms with a princess hug.
A loud 'thud' as the unsuspecting Chen Mo, caught off guard, bumped his head against Oudian's exaggeratedly muscular chest.
Long Fei Wu's pretty face turned red, and she yelled playfully, "Be honest."
Chen Mo looked innocent, "Who would have known you didn't inform me in advance? I couldn't help it."
"Lecherous fellow."
Long Fei Wu spat at Chen Mo and suddenly remembered something from three hundred years ago. She became even more angry, grinding her teeth and staring with a fierce expression.
"I wasn't intentional"
Chen Mo thought Long Fei Wu was angry about the earlier incident, so he quickly opened his mouth to apologize.
"Spit, you said the same thing three hundred years ago."
"Oh..."
Why bring up old scores all of a sudden... Chen Mo was speechless for a moment, then he tentatively asked, "So, should I also apologize for what happened three hundred years ago?"
"Apologies are not necessary. A virgin girl like me was taken advantage of by you so many times. Do you think just saying a few sorrys can cover it up?"
Long Fei Wu looked down at Chen Mo with affection in her eyes, "After we go out, come back with me..."
"I just bumped into you, and you want to sleep with me?"
Chen Mo quietly mocked himself in his heart, but he saw that Zhang Long, who had no interest in women, had already broken through the five hundred feet mark and leaped to the top of the waterfall. At this moment, Long Fei Wu followed closely behind him.
"Here we are."
Chen Mo looked at the new world in front of him, couldn't help but cheer and call out, "Brother Oudian, can you let me down now?"
"Tsk"
Long Fei Wu held Chen Mo, and upon hearing that, she made a dissatisfied 'tsk' sound, then reluctantly put him down.
Breathing a sigh of relief, Chen Mo finally put down the big stone hanging in his heart. Looking ahead, he saw a large stone standing in the distance. The few people who had arrived first were waiting there, seemingly attracted by the giant stone in front of them.
Chen Mo was curious, but suddenly he heard Long Fei Wu calling out to him behind. Turning around, he only heard 'boom' and his face was kissed suddenly...
