Chapter 277 Hasty Intervention

These past two days, they had killed no less than thirty blizzard beasts.

Of course, the vast majority of these were Ye Fei's accomplishments.

When the two returned to the cave, the little girl suddenly drooped her eyes and said.

"Ye Fei, I'll tell you the truth!"

"I've been out for too long. If I don't go back soon, my father will definitely be angry. So I have to bid farewell for now. We'll meet again!"

Ye Fei hadn't expected this day to come so quickly. He had actually had a vague feeling that this little girl had sneaked out.

So after a moment of stunned silence, he quickly recovered his composure and said with a smile.

"Then we'll meet again!"

After that, the little girl, taking advantage of the early hour, waved goodbye to Ye Fei and left.

The few blizzard beasts she had killed were also given to Ye Fei.

At this point, Ye Fei had already fulfilled the requirement of killing ten blizzard beasts.

As night quietly fell, after a night of rest, Ye Fei once again embarked on the journey to hunt blizzard beasts.

Thinking of the potentially great reward for the first place, Ye Fei decided to give it a shot.

Another day passed, and Ye Fei alone killed over twenty blizzard beasts.

At this time, the total number of blizzard beasts in his Qiankun bag had reached a terrifying fifty-three!

As he was heading back after resting, he heard distant, chaotic cries for help.

From the sound, it seemed to be from different people.

Ye Fei's heart stirred, and he drew his sword, rushing towards the direction of the sounds.

Closer.

Ye Fei then realized that not far away, a large group of people were trapped by a massive formation.

"It's actually the Fiery Blaze Array?"

Ye Fei muttered.

Upon closer inspection, Ye Fei discovered that among them were acquaintances of his.

Leng Shuang was clearly also trapped.

But beside Leng Shuang was a man babbling incessantly and trying to curry favor.

That man was Xiao Beiyu, who had previously been at odds with Ye Fei.

The moment Xiao Beiyu saw such a beautiful woman here, his lust was instantly ignited, wishing he could kiss her right away.

Thus, he became extremely solicitous.

As for the Fiery Blaze Array, he didn't take it too seriously.

He had made thorough preparations; his guard was also a formation master.

At that moment, he was deducing the method to break the formation, and it was estimated that it wouldn't be long before the Fiery Blaze Array could be broken.

Ye Fei finally understood why he hadn't seen Leng Shuang after arriving at the second level of the Thousand God Tower; she had been trapped.

He had already firmly etched the method to break the Fiery Blaze Array into his mind, so it wasn't a difficult task for him.

Ye Fei estimated that Leng Shuang definitely hadn't completed her mission yet, so he had to break the Fiery Blaze Array as soon as possible to release them.

The Fiery Blaze Array, as its name suggested, caused those within the formation to feel the sensation of being burned by intense fire. If the formation couldn't be broken within the allotted time, those inside would also be burned to death by the fire.

"Ye Fei, why are you here?"

The moment Ye Fei appeared before the grand formation, Leng Shuang immediately spotted him.

"It's me, I'll break this formation for you right away!"

Ye Fei replied hurriedly.

*Crash.*

Hearing Ye Fei's intention to break the formation, the first person to burst into laughter was Xiao Beiyu.

He clutched his stomach, letting out bursts of derisive laughter.

"What a huge joke!"

"With your flimsy skills, can you really break this formation?"

"I think you just want to show off in front of Shuang Shuang!"

"Let me tell you, the only one who can break this formation here is my guard. He has been cultivating formations since childhood and is not in the same league as you, who came out of nowhere with such arrogance!"

After saying this, Xiao Beiyu turned to the crowd trapped within the formation and threatened them.

"I'm giving you all a choice now. If you believe him, then when my guard breaks this formation later, you must stay here obediently, otherwise I won't be polite!"

"Let me tell you, my uncle is an elder of one of the four great families. You can't afford to offend me!"

With these words, everyone except Leng Shuang began to harbor some resentment towards Ye Fei.

If Ye Fei hadn't insisted on breaking the formation, they wouldn't have been threatened by Xiao Beiyu.

Therefore, they all spoke up, hoping Ye Fei wouldn't get involved.

Ye Fei was almost amused to the point of laughter. Since that was the case, he wouldn't bother.

No one rushes to buy what is freely offered.

Seeing Ye Fei sensibly decide not to act, Xiao Beiyu thought his words had worked and had scared Ye Fei away. He then looked at Ye Fei triumphantly a few times.

Seeing his smugness, Ye Fei couldn't help but scoff inwardly.

He was just waiting for Xiao Beiyu to be thoroughly embarrassed.

In his opinion, the Fiery Blaze Array was indeed difficult. If he hadn't seen such a formation in a book before, even he would have needed some time to deduce several steps before he could start.

Xiao Beiyu's guard actually only had a seventy percent certainty. Although he had seen similar formations a few years ago, formations are precise, and a slight deviation can lead to a mile of error, leaving no room for even a single mistake.

"Young master, I'll start breaking the formation now!"

Xiao Beiyu's guard took a deep breath and said directly.

"Good, good, start quickly!"

Xiao Beiyu himself was also finding the burning sensation unbearable at this point.

He just wanted to get out as soon as possible.

The guard, dressed in black, immediately began to draw the formation-breaking patterns in the air above the formation.

After drawing less than a third of the way, Ye Fei realized something was wrong; the formation-breaking diagram was clearly incorrect!

If it continued on this path, it was highly likely to prematurely detonate the formation, and everyone would be severely injured!

"Wait!"

"Stop quickly!"

Ye Fei now had to speak quickly to stop them.

"Brat, are you scared?"

"Are you afraid that after we get out, we'll come looking for trouble with you?"

"Hahaha, why don't you kneel here and wait for me to come out? Then I might consider letting you off lightly, how about it?"

Xiao Beiyu said with a smile, as if he could already see Ye Fei kneeling and begging for mercy, slapping himself.

"Hmph, I'm laughing at some people who are still indulging in debauchery when disaster is imminent!"

"I can tell you clearly, if the formation-breaking pattern continues according to your guard's method, there will only be one outcome: everyone will perish here!"

As soon as Ye Fei said this, the rest of the people immediately started discussing. Some believed him, but more were in a state of half-belief.
