Chapter 2476 Shouldn't you give me an explanation?
"Young Master, this is not a place to stay for long, let's get out of here quickly!" Li Yan's protector said immediately.
"But we still have people trapped inside the formation who haven't been evacuated. Are we going to abandon them?"
When they escaped, the protector only brought him and Qin Fei with him. In addition to the Li family, there are also members of the Wang family who are currently trapped in the Rootless Formation.
If we don't help them now, their only fate will probably be death!
"Young Master, that old scoundrel's strength is enough to suppress me, or even defeat me head-on. We have no other choice but to make a decision!"
Li Yan's protector was indeed a strong person, but there are always stronger people out there. He was no match for that Yin Laoguai. If he turned back at this moment, he would not only fail to save people, but he might even get himself killed. Therefore, Li Yan had to step forward and make the decision at this time.
"boom!"
Just as they were talking to each other, a loud rumbling sound and a shrill scream suddenly came from behind them.
The old monster Yin then attacked those who remained trapped in the Rootless Formation.
"Let's retreat first; the people inside can't be saved." This was what the fifth elder of the Wang family said.
Yin Laoguai's breakthrough in cultivation was something no one had expected or anticipated.
Although they moved very quickly when they came out, no one could guarantee that Old Monster Yin hadn't seen clearly how they left.
They still have a chance to retreat while the enemy hasn't come out yet. But once the enemy also comes out of the Rootless Formation, their troubles will be truly dire.
"Retreat!"
Hearing the words of the protector and the fifth elder of the Wang family, Li Yan wanted to turn back to save people, but even the strongest on their side was no match for Yin Laoguai. Turning back would be no different from sending them to their deaths.
Someone like Yin Laoguai is capable of anything. Do you really expect to use the power behind him to suppress him?
The consequence of doing so would likely be an even more gruesome death.
Moreover, there are rumors that Yin Laoguai has a particular fondness for devouring people's essence and blood. As a super genius nurtured by the Li family, if Li Yan falls into Yin Laoguai's hands, his fate will likely be extremely tragic, and he will be completely drained by the other party.
For the sake of his own life, Li Yan had no choice but to retreat at this point.
"Everyone, retreat immediately!"
Having made up his mind, Li Yan did not hesitate any longer and led his men to retreat to a distant place.
After they had walked a distance, Li Yan finally turned his attention to Qin Fei.
"Brother Qin, shouldn't you give me an explanation now?"
His tone was calm, but Qin Fei could feel a sense of pressure in it.
He knew that Li Yan was blaming him for leading them into the Rootless Formation, which resulted in the deaths of a group of people.
"That young man and I are sworn enemies, so I want to kill him!" Qin Fei didn't hide his relationship with Long Teng at all and said it openly.
"In the end, you still want to use me to help you fend off that treacherous old monster, so that you can buy yourself time to take revenge. Am I right?"
Li Yan was very clever and immediately guessed the key to the matter.
"Correct!"
Qin Fei did not deny this, saying, "I did want your Li family to help me resist Yin Laoguai, but unfortunately I misjudged the strength of both sides, which led to the current situation. I am sorry for those who were left behind."
"you……."
Li Yan was already furious but had nowhere to vent his anger. However, he did not expect Qin Fei to not only admit his mistake sincerely but also not even try to make excuses. This made Li Yan feel as if he had punched a cotton ball instead of a powerful punch.
I feel really uncomfortable.
Doesn't this script seem a bit off?
"You took advantage of me and you still talk so self-righteously? Are you out of your mind?" Li Yan couldn't help but ask.
"not at all!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Fei shook his head immediately: "I promised before that I would show you how to enter and exit this formation. I don't think I broke my promise. I have fulfilled my commitment to you."
The method to enter and exit the Rootless Array is still a secret to many people. Even someone of Yin Laoguai's level has not found a way and has been trapped inside ever since.
So Qin Fei used this secret to exchange for Li Yan's help once, which was an absolutely equal deal.
Li Yan was speechless after Qin Fei's words. Indeed, he had seen clearly how Qin Fei entered and exited the Rootless Formation, but he had also been used by Qin Fei.
These are all facts that have already happened.
If Qin Fei had mentioned his grudge against that person whose name he didn't know earlier, Li Yan might not have been so angry. But the key is that Qin Fei concealed this important information.
"In other words, even without my intervention, wouldn't you have taken action against this cunning old monster?"
"It can only be said that we all misjudged the opponent's strength this time, which led to the current situation."
"indeed so."
This is when Wang's fifth son also spoke up for Qin Fei.
To be honest, he felt extremely regretful for not being able to kill Yin Laoguai, as it was a perfect opportunity to strike him down.
This is tantamount to trapping a dog behind closed doors.
But who would have thought that their strongest fighter was no match for this Yin Laoguai, and they were almost caught off guard and killed.
Of course, they didn't come without a price; several members of the Li and Wang families were all trapped inside.
Given Yin Laoguai's ruthless nature, these people are likely doomed and cannot be saved.
"Young Master, this incident is my fault. I failed to detect the change in the other party's cultivation level beforehand." Li Yan's protector also began to reflect on his actions.
In his mind, his fighting ability was definitely no worse than that of the old monster Yin.
But the other party broke through the realm, which was something he had not expected.
Everyone knows that the higher one's cultivation level, the more difficult it is to advance to the next level. Some people may never be able to take a single step forward in their entire lives. The fact that Yin Laoguai was able to take a step forward means that his combat power has definitely seen a significant increase.
Previously, Yin Laoguai had not deliberately released his aura, which led to a misunderstanding of him. Fortunately, they ran fast enough, and Yin Laoguai was unable to catch up immediately. Otherwise, with so many people and such a large target, it would be uncertain whether they could have escaped and survived.
"Enough, now is not the time to see who is right and who is wrong. We just used the formation to break out of the great formation, and this scene should have been seen by Old Monster Yin. He will most likely break out of the formation in a very short time. At that time, we will likely face his revenge. So I think we can head back now!"
"I agree!"
Upon hearing Li Yan's words, his protector was the first to speak up and agree.
His combat power is currently inferior to that of Yin Laoguai. If they do not return to the teleportation altar, they are very likely to perish if they encounter Yin Laoguai. Therefore, they can only protect themselves first.
“I also agree to turn back!” said the fifth elder of the Wang family.
