Jiang Tianyi suddenly spoke and said: "Brother Liu is right. If Brother Zhao lets Chen Yatou go, I promise not to stop you and let you leave safely. I think Master has the same idea."
"Amitabha." Du Yuan recited the Buddha's name, "Donor Yi is dead, and the poor monk really doesn't want to see another body in this hall. If this benefactor from Japan can let Donor Chen go, the poor monk will I won’t stop you.”
Jiang Tianyi said casually: "Master is compassionate and compassionate, and I admire him greatly."
After saying that, Jiang Tian looked at Devadatta and said, "Brother Zhao, if Master doesn't stop you, just let Chen Yatou go."
Devadatta shook his head, looked at Wan Yanxia, and said, "Where is Wan Yanxia?"
If there is anyone here who has the biggest hatred against Devadatta, it is Wan Yanxia. Although Liu Yuan was slapped by Devadatta, fortunately, he was not seriously injured and could just recover for a while.
But Yi Haichao was different. He was hit by Devadatta's palm in the back and almost died. His right palm was pierced again, further injuring him. He is still unconscious at this moment. It is hard to imagine how serious Wan Yanxia will be. resentment.
Wan Yanxia took a deep breath and said, "I will not hold you accountable for what happened today. I will settle the account with you after Mr. Yi recovers from his injury."
Wan Yanxia understood very well that everyone present agreed to let Devadatta leave alive. It was useless for her to object alone. On the contrary, it would intensify the conflict and get out of control. In addition, Yi Haichao was injured. , urgent treatment is needed. The longer it is delayed, the more serious the injury will be. After weighing the two factors, Wan Yanxia finally swallowed her breath.
Devadatta didn't expect Wan Yanxia to completely expose the matter. Although he was from Japan and didn't know the situation in the Central Plains, he also knew that there was nothing so cheap in the world.
Devadatta said: "Liu Yuan, it's not enough."
Having said that, Devadatta looked at Xiang Lan.
Wan Yanxia said angrily: "Devadatta, I have let you go, how come you still have so many conditions? Do you still want to kill Xiang Lan?"
Zhou Yangui's eyes lit up - if that's the case, it's not impossible.
Zhou Yangui and Yi Pingfan had the same purpose, both to kill Xiang Lan. If Devadatta proposed this condition and Liu Yuan and the others could really agree to it, they would be living up to that person's trust.
After all, as long as Xiang Lan died, that person didn't have to let them kill Xiang Lan with their own hands.
Devadatta chuckled lightly and said: "What does Xiang Lan's death or immortality have to do with me? The purpose of my coming here is just to take away one thing. Well, to be precise, they are two things."
Liu Yuan's face darkened, and he had already guessed what Devadatta wanted.
Sure enough, Devadatta said, "I want those two bamboo slips."
Xiang Lan was startled, took out the two bamboo slips Liu Yuan gave him from his sleeve, and said, "Is this why you came here?"
Devadatta said in a deep voice: "Bring it."
Liu Yuandao: "Absolutely impossible."
"Oh?" Devadatta rested his head on Chen Ying's shoulder, and used his right hand harder and harder, "Liu Yuan, is it really impossible?"
Liu Yuan suppressed his inner anxiety and said calmly: "Those two bamboo slips are much more important than an apprentice. What's more, there are still some old scores that have not been settled between you and me."
Devadatta nodded slightly and said, "Is it because the nine men under me are chasing you?"
Liu Yuan was slightly surprised, but then calmed down and said, "That's right. I never thought that you could chase me from Fan Yang to here for those two scrolls of bamboo slips."
Devadatta said, "It's not us, it's me."
Liu Yuan was startled and suddenly realized something was wrong: "Where are the nine people?"
Devadatta smiled slightly and said: "If I dare to break into the largest sect in Jiangnan and face so many of you experts just by relying on Yi Pingfan and Zhou Yangui, it would be overestimating my capabilities."
Liu Yuan frowned and said, "What did you ask those nine people to do?"
Devadatta said: "Just in case, before I entered Jiangnan, I told them that if I couldn't leave safely, or if I couldn't get the two bamboo slips, the nine of them would immediately deal with it. The sects you all belong to launched an attack. Well, let me think about it, there are Bashan, Kunlun, Xiaojue Temple, and Fengdao Pavilion. You are not in your respective sects, so it would be easy for the nine of them to wipe out the sect."
Every time Devadatta recited a sect, one more person present would have a gloomy expression. Until all four sects were recited, even if he was as open-minded as Jiang Tianyi, his face would be clouded at this moment.
"Devadatta!" Jiang Tianyi gritted his teeth, "Do you really think there is nothing we can do against you?"
Devadatta said: "I would like to see what the famous bow god in the Central Plains can do to me."
After saying that, Devadatta pinched Chen Ying's left shoulder with just a little force. Although Chen Ying's shoulder blade was not broken, she still felt a sharp pain.
"ah!"
Chen Ying had never experienced such pain. She just screamed and turned pale. Fortunately, she did not faint.
"That's enough!" Liu Yuan tightened his grip on the sword hilt, "Devadatta, I'll give you the bamboo slips. You let the girl go."
After that, Liu Yuan took the bamboo slip from Xiang Lan and wanted to go over and give it to Devadatta.
Devadatta said: "Liu Yuan, stop. Your martial arts skills are too high. I can't trust you. Let someone else give it to me."
Liu Yuan stopped and sneered: "Okay, but how many of the people present are not good at martial arts?"
Devadatta thought for a while and pushed Chen Ying out. He hid behind Zhou Yangui, restrained him and said, "Chen Ying, go get the bamboo slips and don't play any tricks. Otherwise, your Uncle Zhou will His life can’t be saved.”
Chen Ying was let go by Devadatta, and she had a chance to take a deep breath. She then rubbed her left shoulder that was pinched by Devadatta, her eyes dim with tears.
Liu Yuanyan saw Devadatta let go of Chen Ying and immediately wanted to take action, but when he saw Chen Ying's pleading eyes, he sighed softly and decided not to take action.
Devadatta was sure of this. He had followed Chen Ying along the way and already knew Chen Ying's character. He knew that she would never disregard the life and death of others, so he was so confident and bold.
Moreover, Devadatta had been observing for days and knew that Chen Ying was extremely loved by Liu Yuan and Jiang Tianyi. It could be said that as long as he controlled her, he would control Jiang Liu, two peerless masters.
Chen Ying took the bamboo slip from Liu Yuan and walked towards Devadatta. However, she suddenly stopped when she was still three steps away from Devadatta.
Devadatta frowned and was about to ask, but Chen Ying let go of her hand. Devadatta subconsciously looked at the fallen bamboo slips.
That is to say, taking advantage of the moment when Devadatta's attention was not on her, Chen Ying suddenly drew her sword, avoided Zhou Yangui at an extremely tricky angle, and stabbed Devadatta who was hiding behind him.
