Chapter 496: Damn Brat, You Tricked Me?
“Be good and give me the Water Dragon Crown.”
The old man’s tone was still gentle, but his eyes were a little impatient. He had gone through so much trouble and lost so many people to obtain this Water Dragon Crown, how could he possibly give it to this little brat?
“No! I want the Water Dragon Crown.”
Chu Xin blinked her big eyes and said firmly.
“I’ll say it one more time, give me the Water Dragon Crown.”
The old man’s tone had already turned cold, and a trace of killing intent appeared in his eyes.
If it weren’t for the fact that he wanted to trick these two brats back to the Ice and Snow Sacred Ground and use a secret technique to strip them of their talents, he would have already made his move.
“No! I want this one. If you don’t give me the Water Dragon Crown, you’re a bad grandpa.”
Chu Xin held the Water Dragon Crown on her head with both of her small, fair hands and said angrily.
“Brat, you’re courting death.”
The old man’s patience was exhausted, and he said in a cold voice.
“Ah! Grandpa has turned bad.” Chu Xin held her little head with both hands, levitated into the air, and looked at the old man warily.
Chu Chen flew to Chu Xin’s side and said seriously, “Big Sister, it could also be that the bad grandpa has gotten old.”
“That seems to make sense.”
Chu Xin nodded heavily and looked at the old man with even more vigilance.
“Capture them for me. As long as they’re alive.”
The old man said in a deep voice. He was already injured and didn’t want to use any more energy.
“Yes!”
Several prodigies rushed over excitedly. They were the ones who had been spanked by Chu Xin earlier. They had been harboring a sense of humiliation, and now they could finally take revenge.
“Brat, I’m going to beat your butt to a pulp.”
One of the prodigies rushed straight towards Chu Xin, his eyes flashing with madness.
Chu Xin blinked her big eyes, raised her fair little hand, pointed at the prodigy, and softly uttered a word in her childish voice.
“Bang!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the prodigy’s body suddenly shook and stopped in mid-air.
Puff puff puff!
The next moment, tiny golden swords shot out from the prodigy’s body, carrying trails of blood.
Ah!
The prodigy let out a shrill scream, fell from the sky, and crashed heavily onto the ice.
Everyone was shocked and quickly looked down, breathing a sigh of relief. Although their companion looked miserable, his life was not in danger.
“How did she do that?”
Everyone looked up at Chu Xin again, their eyes filled with shock and confusion.
From beginning to end, they hadn’t felt any energy fluctuations, nor had they seen how the brat had attacked.
“Kill!”
Another prodigy flew over.
Chu Xin giggled, raised her fair little hand again, pointed at the prodigy, and uttered a childish “Bang!”
As soon as she finished speaking, golden swords shot out from the man’s body, and he screamed as he fell from the sky.
“What’s going on? How is this happening?”
The other prodigies were a little panicked. They had no idea how this brat was doing it, and they hesitated to move forward.
“I’ll do it too.”
Chu Chen imitated his sister’s posture, pointed at one of them, and said “Bang.”
Suddenly, tiny golden sabers shot out from the body of the prodigy who had been pointed at, carrying a series of blood arrows.
Ah!
That prodigy let out a shrill scream and fell from the sky.
“Bang bang!”
The two siblings kept waving their little hands, pointing at each prodigy. All those who were pointed at had golden swords or golden sabers shooting out of their bodies.
Shrill screams rang out one after another, and one by one, the heavily injured bodies fell from the sky like dumplings, crashing heavily onto the ice.
In just a moment, all the Ice and Snow Sacred Ground disciples were lying on the ice.
“This!”
The old man with the severed arm was stunned by this scene.
Sixty to seventy disciples of the Ice and Snow Sacred Ground had survived the attacks of the Water Dragon group, but they had fallen victim to the schemes of two four or five-year-old brats.
“How did you do that?”
The old man looked at Chu Xin and Chu Chen and asked in a deep voice. He still didn’t understand how all this had happened.
Chu Xin giggled and said in a childish voice, “It’s very simple. When you were eating grilled meat and drinking blood curd soup, we hid our energy in it. When you ate it, our energy could lurk in your bodies and be detonated at any time.”
“When we were eating grilled meat and drinking blood curd soup?”
The old man’s face instantly darkened when he heard this.
He had already been very careful, but he still fell for it.
“Fu Xuefei actually dared to betray me, betray the Ice and Snow Sacred Ground.”
The old man’s voice was filled with endless killing intent as he asked coldly, “Who came up with this plan? Your maternal grandmother?”
He didn’t believe that two four or five-year-old brats could come up with such a plan. The plan wasn’t perfect, but when executed by two four or five-year-old brats, it seemed very perfect.
No one would have thought that two four or five-year-old brats would have such calm adaptability and such realistic acting skills that they could even deceive him.
“No, I came up with it. Impressive, right?”
Chu Xin patted her little chest and said proudly, “I read 《the Thirty-Six Stratagems》 for a long time before I came up with it.”
“You came up with this plan?”
The old man was a little shocked. Although this plan was not perfect, it was definitely not something a four or five-year-old brat could come up with.
◈◈◈
The Thirty-Six Stratagems?
What’s that?
His eyes were filled with confusion.
“Of course, I’m very smart… um, what’s it called again?”
Chu Xin frowned slightly, then suddenly clapped her hands and said, “Oh right, strategist, it’s called a strategist.”
She was very excited about this.
“Father said, in ancient times there was Zhuge who calculated the world, and today there is little female Zhuge who calculates the bad guys,” Chu Xin said with her hands on her hips, full of spirit.
Zhuge in ancient times?
Is there an ancient god named Zhuge in the Ancient God Realm? I’ve never heard of him.
The old man’s face was extremely gloomy, and his eyes flashed with a cold killing intent.
These damn brats, who had pretended to be so innocent before, actually had such deep schemes.
Now that his greatest life-saving method had already been used against the Water Dragon King, the only thing he could do now was… run!
Thinking of this, he gave Chu Xin and Chu Chen a cold look, turned around, and tore through the void.
Chu Xin was not flustered at all. She raised her little hand and pointed, softly saying, “Bang!”
Puff puff!
Tiny golden swords shot out from the old man’s body, carrying a trail of blood.
Ah!
The old man screamed and fell from the sky, crashing heavily onto the ice.
At this point, the Ice and Snow Sacred Ground disciples who had besieged Water Dragon Island were completely wiped out and would not be able to fight again for a short time.
“Done!”
Chu Xin clapped her little hands, a satisfied look on her delicate face.
Chu Chen’s small body flickered and appeared above the old man, looking down at him condescendingly. He said in a childish voice, “Old villain, take off the spatial ring on your hand, erase the imprint, and give it to me, and we won’t kill you. Otherwise, I’ll beat your butt to a pulp and then kill you.”
“Brat, are you serious?”
The old man, who had been waiting for death, was stunned when he heard this.
Although he had countless treasures in his spatial ring, compared to his life, everything could be discarded.
Moreover, even if he didn’t hand it over, once this brat killed him, he wouldn’t be able to keep the spatial ring anyway.
“Of course, we always keep our word, a word spoken is harder to retrieve than four galloping horses.” Chu Chen nodded seriously.
A word spoken is harder to retrieve than four galloping horses?
What’s that?
The old man was confused.
“Stupid Brother, I told you to listen to Father carefully, but you just wouldn’t.”
Chu Xin flew over, patted Chu Chen’s little head, and said with a mix of exasperation and affection, “It’s a promise as heavy as nine tripods, and a word spoken is harder to retrieve than four galloping horses. You combined two sentences into one.”
“Oh! Is that so?”
Chu Chen scratched his head, turned to the old man, and said, “Let’s start over. We always keep our word, a promise as heavy as nine tripods. As long as you hand over your spatial rings, my sister and I won’t kill you.”
“Really?”
The old man didn’t understand what a promise as heavy as nine tripods meant either, so he automatically ignored it, turned to Chu Xin, and confirmed again.
“Really.” Chu Xin nodded her little head.
“Okay!”
The old man decisively took off the spatial ring on his hand, erased the imprint inside, and handed it to Chu Chen.
“What about you?”
Chu Chen happily took the spatial ring, turned to the other Ice and Snow Sacred Ground disciples, and threatened in a childishly fierce voice, “Hand them over and you can live. If you don’t, I’ll beat your butts to a pulp and then kill you.”
“We’ll hand them over, we’ll hand them over!”
In order to survive, the Ice and Snow Sacred Ground disciples did not hesitate at all. They quickly took off their spatial rings and threw them to Chu Chen.
Chu Chen’s small body flickered, and he collected all the spatial rings. Then he landed in front of Chu Xin and said excitedly, “Wow! Big Sister, so many spatial rings. There must be a lot of treasures inside. Let’s categorize the treasures first.”
“Okay!”
Chu Xin nodded, took a handful of spatial rings from Chu Chen, sat cross-legged on the ice, and took out all the treasures inside.
Chu Chen sat cross-legged on the other side, took out the treasures from the remaining spatial rings, and began to sort through the treasures right in front of the Ice and Snow Sacred Ground disciples.
Every time they found a good treasure, they would make a big fuss.
The old man and the Ice and Snow Sacred Ground disciples twitched their eyes as they watched. These two brats were really too hateful.
You robbed them of their spatial rings, fine, but could you at least go somewhere else to sort through the treasures? Did you have to do it right here in front of them?
It was like taking a small knife and stabbing their hearts one by one.
“Wow! Little Brother, Little Brother, this records the formation method of the Frost God-Slaying Formation.”
Suddenly, Chu Xin took out a divine slip and said excitedly.
“Big Sister, let me see.”
Chu Chen came over, took the divine slip, and examined it. Sure enough, a complex and vast amount of information poured into his mind. It was the Frost God-Slaying Formation that the old man and the Ice and Snow Sacred Ground disciples had set up earlier.
This was a true divine formation that required the cultivators to cultivate Frost Divine Power and at least reach the True God realm to unleash its full power.
The highest cultivation among the old man and the others was only Half-Step Divine Disciple, and they were unable to unleash the true power of the Frost God-Slaying Formation.
Even so, it had still caused the Water Dragons to be utterly defeated.
The old man stared at the divine slip with wide eyes.
“Damn it, I forgot to take out the divine slip and hide it on my body.”
