"So, we can only make a move from behind."

Zhou Ke hinted at something, as if he had decided the timing of his action from this point.

"I understand."

Tian Hailin nodded, his hand touching a switch on the spaceship, taking a deep breath.

He never expected Zhou Ke to entrust him with such a daunting task.

Originally, if it were before, Tian Hailin wouldn't have the confidence or courage to complete the plan Zhou Ke arranged for him.

But now, the situation wouldn't care whether he was confident or not.

Since it has come to this, if he can show his strongest ability, then he must go all out.

…

The battle was gradually coming to an end.

On Shi Qian's side, even though Shi Qian had just finished off a First Grade Cultivator, the one fighting him did not sense any fatigue from Shi Qian.

On the contrary, the First Grade Cultivator fighting Shi Qian, having lost a teammate, was constantly being beaten down by Shi Qian.

Over on Du Jiantang and Yao Xin's side, they had already taken care of the other Second Grade Peak Cultivators on the field.

In one-on-one situations, Du Jiantang and Yao Xin had a higher realm than their opponents.

"Finish them off quickly; the opponents may have reinforcements coming. After we take care of them, we should head straight back to the Ice Sect."

Du Jiantang's thinking was very clear as he spoke.

However, Du Jiantang did not fully understand the situation; everything he said was just a judgment based on the current circumstances.

Shi Qian spoke up, his voice somewhat resigned: "The reinforcements from the Cold Sect... have already arrived."

"And they've been here for a long time!"

Shi Qian's words not only stunned Du Jiantang and Yao Xin, but were also unbelievable to the First Grade Cultivators fighting them.

"Impossible."

The First Grade Cultivator fighting alongside Shi Qian said, "Our reinforcements haven't arrived yet. If they had, they would have stepped in to support us long ago."

They were about to die.

The situation was no longer favorable like it was at the beginning.

Rather, it was adverse.

In their eyes, if the Cold Sect's reinforcements had arrived, they would surely rush in to assist at the first moment.

If there hadn't been any support, it meant their reinforcements hadn't arrived.

"Ha."

The words of the First Grade Cultivator in front caused Shi Qian to sneer: "I sensed others were here long before you arrived, only they haven't made a move."

"Don't you understand yet?"

Shi Qian spoke with mockery in his voice: "From the beginning, you were just pawns for gauging strength; you were not the main force."

"Even if you all die here, sacrificed in battle, as long as it consumes some of our strength, it's worth it for those people."

Deception and ridicule.

Shi Qian's words not only introduced doubt in the minds of those fighting beside him but also brought suspicion to the other two First Grade Cultivators.

Right.

From the start, they were never valued by the Sect Master of the Cold Sect.

They had stepped forward voluntarily to prove their worth.

In such circumstances, would the Sect Master of the Cold Sect truly entrust such an important task to them?

Probably not.

Once suspicion took root in their minds, it began to spread, making them overthink; those inherently disadvantaged in battle began making frequent mistakes due to other thoughts creeping in.

The First Grade Cultivator fighting Shi Qian lost focus for a second and was directly severed of an arm by Shi Qian, blood flowing profusely.

The intense pain quickly made him react, looking at Shi Qian in front of him, gasping heavily, and speaking to the other two First Grade Cultivators:

"Don't believe what he says; he's trying to disrupt our thinking so they can deal with us more easily."

"Is that so?"

Shi Qian waved his hand.

Redirecting the three individuals' attention to the spaceship where Cha Bei was.

"Open your eyes wide and see if that's your Cold Sect ship!"

Since Shi Qian discovered that ship from the beginning, he could allow others to see what the ship and its interior were all about.

The three individuals saw Cha Bei, along with nine other First Grade Cultivators and several Second Grade Peak Cultivators.

Just by the expressions on their faces, it was clear they had been here all along, merely observing the battle.

The First Grade Cultivator fighting Shi Qian showed a hint of a gloomy smile.

Though he had doubts, he was convinced those from the Cold Sect wouldn't act such a way.

After all, they are from one sect.

How could it be possible that they arrived and yet watched them die at the enemy's hands?

Moreover, they are First Grade Cultivators!

Their power—strong!

Their value—great!

But now, the three First Grade Cultivators realized—it really could happen!

"Never thought we'd fight fiercely for a chance here, only to start as abandoned pawns from the beginning."

Not just the First Grade Cultivator fighting Shi Qian, the other two started losing their fighting spirit instantly, realizing they had no energy left.

They glanced at the wooden boat shrouded in darkness; the three First Grade Cultivators couldn't see anything inside.

But at this moment, their thoughts were clearer than ever, as they chuckled and said:

"Actually, there's only Wang Ye inside that wooden boat, isn't it? The half-step into Fusion Realm, all fake."

"What are you planning to do?"

Du Jiantang and Yao Xin sensed their gaze, instantly moving in front of the wooden boat, ready to defend Wang Ye should they make a move.

Even the enemy had noticed something suspicious; naturally, they had detected something amiss.
