"Are they coming?"

Wang Ye looked at the several Second Grade Peak Cultivators approaching him and calculated silently in his heart.

Over on Du Jiantang's side, he held off four of them.

And on Yao Xin's side, three were blocked.

Now, heading towards Wang Ye, only three remain.

But against three Second Grade Peak Cultivators, Wang Ye only possessed the realm and strength of a Fourth Grade Cultivator.

Using the power of the Saintess within him, Wang Ye last time had caused her to fall into slumber again after borrowing her strength, so even if he wanted to use it again now, there was no power left for him to borrow.

Moreover, considering Wang Ye's mastery level over the power of a First Grade Cultivator, even if she could lend him power, he likely wouldn't be able to use it effectively to deal with the three Second Grade Peak cultivators.

Although the power levels of a First Grade Cultivator and a Second Grade Peak Cultivator are worlds apart,

if three Second Grade Peak Cultivators face a half-defeated First Grade Cultivator, taking him down wouldn't be difficult.

"Sigh."

Wang Ye let out a small sigh.

He retrieved three items resembling firecrackers from his space ring.

Inside them contained the Golden Thunder Avenue Power.

The force was collected by Wang Ye over the past few days.

Golden Thunder Avenue Power isn't the type of Power of the Great Dao that Wang Ye can absorb entirely.

Only some gentle forces, which are non-aggressive when absorbed, can Wang Ye take into his body.

As for the aggressive forces, Wang Ye used formations to collect them outside his body.

These firecracker-like items were intricately engraved with formations on the surface.

And the power drawn in each firecracker was enough to counter a first-rank beginning cultivator.

Originally, Wang Ye intended to reserve these items as trump cards against certain First Grade Cultivators.

But now.

Wang Ye sighed.

Oh well.

Then let these three Second Grade Peak Cultivators have them.

And though the firecrackers indeed have the power of a first-rank beginning cultivator, a first-rank beginning cultivator wouldn't just stand there and let Wang Ye attack.

Against Second Grade Peak Cultivators, they might even be more convenient to use.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Wang Ye's face, and the feeling of pain in his heart faded away somewhat.

The small boat was shrouded by Shi Qian using the Shadow Path Power.

Even with Divine Sense, outsiders couldn't probe what was happening inside the boat.

But Wang Ye was able to observe everything outside from within the darkness.

To Wang Ye, this was his mini battlefield, his own domain.

Wang Ye glanced over at Shi Qian.

Just when Shi Qian was using the Shadow Path Power to cloak the boat, aside from protecting himself, did he harbor some other thoughts?

Shi Qian was aware of these trump cards in Wang Ye's hand.

Making Wang Ye the bait to also eliminate some of them?

Shi Qian... really trusts him!

But this is good.

A moment ago, he was thinking that he might not be able to unleash his strength in this battle, reduced to being a mere adornment.

Now.

He could actually unleash his strength in this battle!

Watching the three Second Grade Peak Cultivators approaching him, Wang Ye aimed the firecrackers at them and quietly calculated the distance in his mind, planning to wait until they reached a certain distance before using the firecrackers to deal with them directly.

Meanwhile, Du Jiantang and Yao Xin, while fighting alongside others, wanted to pull those three Second Grade Peak Cultivators back, but were deeply worried.

Wang Ye alone couldn't hold off even one Second Grade Peak Cultivator.

Let alone three Second Grade Peak Cultivators!

"Wang Ye!"

Du Jiantang and Yao Xin, while battling those around them, tried to pull back the three Second Grade Peak Cultivators.

Only, no matter what they did, the powerful individuals around them kept them tightly restrained, leaving them with no means to move toward Wang Ye.

Those three Second Grade Peak Cultivators.

They couldn't stop them.

Shi Qian glanced over.

He indeed harbored such thoughts.

As his gaze flickered, Shi Qian couldn't help but feel a bit concerned.

Although, if Wang Ye succeeds, all would be well, but what if Wang Ye fails?

At that point, his disciple, his reliable anchor, would be gone.

Should…

Help Wang Ye a bit?

Thinking of this, Shi Qian unleashed a powerful strike with his sword, sending two First Grade Officials attacking him aside.

Shi Qian moved to assist Wang Ye.

But two First Grade Officials from the Cold Sect exchanged glances and resumed their assault on Shi Qian, entangling him once more.

"Damn it!"

Seeing himself held by two First Grade Cultivators with no way to break free, Shi Qian's overwhelming sense of powerlessness made him even angrier, veins bulging on his face and forehead.

With his heart in turmoil, Shi Qian's attacks became erratic.

With erratic moves, he could no more effectively block the attacks from the two First Grade Cultivators.

Shi Qian was still tied up by the two First Grade Cultivators.

Shi Qian cursed, "You bunch of fools! Get out of my way! That is the hope for the Ice Sect's revival! Blocking me is tantamount to opposing the entire Ice Sect!"

Anger.

Powerlessness.

Restlessness.

All kinds of emotions were vividly showcased in Shi Qian's heart at that moment.

And the three Second Grade Peak Cultivators heading towards Wang Ye watched Shi Qian, Yao Xin, and Du Jiantang trying to intercept them but failing, merely watching impotently as they closed in on Wang Ye.

Especially the sense of powerlessness from Shi Qian.

Made them smile internally.

Looking in Wang Ye's direction, they relaxed significantly.

Any one of them, three Second Grade Peak Cultivators, could deal with Wang Ye, let alone all three together.

Though they hadn't spotted Wang Ye in the darkness, to them, Wang Ye... was like a fish in a barrel.
