Chapter 3804: The only way
Translator: 549690339
After all was said and done, the biggest problem Meng jueguang and Meng Tong were facing right now was that Xiao ran and Qiao hongcai were just Lin Yi’s underlings, but they’d both suddenly and inexplicably entered the Foundation Stage, becoming early Foundation Stage Masters!
Lin Yi alone was enough to make them scratch their heads, but now the situation had taken a turn for the worse. Not only was Meng Tong no match for Lin Yi, but he couldn’t even defeat any of Lin Yi’s minions. How were they supposed to play?
Meng jueguang had a lot of new people under him, but only Meng Tong was in the early Foundation Stage. On the other hand, Lin Yi’s group only had three people, but they were all in the Foundation Stage. It was clear who was stronger.
In the face of such a vast difference in strength, Meng jueguang’s schemes and plots were useless. In the face of absolute strength, all these so-called schemes and intrigues were just fleeting clouds!
At this moment, even Meng jueguang, the scheming eldest Senior Steward who had always been a man of few words, could not help but feel a little flustered.
He’d realized that if things continued like this, he might not be able to do anything to Lin Yi’s group even if he successfully became the third master with young master Xu’s support.
Lin Yi and the other two’s performance was just too eye-catching. Once they attracted the attention of the upper echelons of the pavilion, it would be very difficult for him to make trouble again. He might even get himself into trouble if he wasn’t careful, and it wasn’t impossible for him to fail!
Meng jueguang thought for a long time and finally came up with the only effective solution, which was to find a way to upgrade Meng Tong’s level as soon as possible, so that he could once again have the crushing advantage over Xiao ran, Qiao hongcai, and even Lin Yi. Only then could he control the situation again.
No matter how disrespectful Lin Yi and the other two were to him, they were still newbies of the GreenCloud Pavilion who were heavily protected. If he didn’t want to take the risk and rely on outsiders, the only way to deal with them was to support a stronger GreenCloud Pavilion newbie to crush them.
And this person could only be Meng Tong.
Other newbies like li Zhengming were only sky Class full Masters, after all. It was obviously unrealistic to raise them to the level where they could crush Lin Yi and the others, and they weren’t as reliable as Meng Tong in terms of loyalty.
However, Meng Tong had only just reached the early stage of the foundation building realm and had only succeeded by taking the foundation building elixir and foundation building elixir. It was easy to imagine how difficult it would be for him to reach the next level in such a short time.
The normal way was certainly out of the question. The only way was to take a medicinal pill, and it couldn’t be an ordinary medicinal pill with the nature of assisting cultivation, but the kind of rare medicinal pill that could forcibly increase one’s level, which could decide the outcome with one blow. Other medicinal pills, such as the foundation building barrier-breaking pill, which were sought after by the foundation building experts, were useless.
Unfortunately, if Meng jueguang had such a pill, he would have given it to himself long ago. How could he have kept it until today?
However, just because Meng jueguang did not have it on hand did not mean that he would not be able to get it. Don’t forget that he still had the backing of Xu lingchong. With young master Xu’s unfathomable background and power, it would not be difficult for him to obtain this type of elixir if he really had the intention.
After all, increasing Meng Tong’s strength was to deal with Lin Yi. Although Meng Tong wasn’t in young master Xu’s eyes, he was still his follower’s follower. Increasing Meng Tong’s strength was killing two birds with one stone for him.
After making up his mind, Meng jueguang felt a little more at ease, but the way he looked at Lin Yi and the others was a little more vicious than before.
I’ll let you guys be arrogant for a while. After I convince young master Xu, I’ll deal with you!
Lin Yi frowned as he felt Meng jueguang’s cold gaze.”Could it be that Meng jueguang is up to something again?”
Since the miserable senior brother had already escorted Qiao hongcai back to his cave to recuperate, Xiao ran was the only one left with Lin Yi.
After all, with the powerful strength that Qiao hongcai had just displayed and Xiao ran’s protection, newbies like Cha Wu wouldn’t dare to provoke him. So even if he hadn’t been challenged in this round, he could be sure that no one would challenge him, so he might as well go back to his cave to recuperate.
Of course, if Meng Tong could recover in a short time, he might directly launch a battle of revenge against Qiao hongcai. Unfortunately, this was not realistic. With his current injuries, even if he took a grade four great recovery pill, he would need a day to fully recover.
Xiao ran couldn’t help but smile at Lin Yi’s suspicion.”Boss, you’re thinking too much. In this situation, we have three early Foundation Stage cultivators, but he only has one subordinate, Meng Tong. The gap is too big. No matter what he does, it’s useless!”
This was the truth. With Meng jueguang’s strength, he could take on Lin Yi and the others, but he couldn’t do it himself. He only had Meng Tong as a powerful chess piece, and it was unrealistic to use him against the three of them. After all, even a clever housewife couldn’t cook a meal without rice.
“I hope this guy knows his place.” Lin Yi nodded. If Meng jueguang could accept reality and give up, there wouldn’t be so much trouble anymore, and he’d be able to focus on improving his strength.
“What’s your plan?”Lin Yi asked after a pause. Are we going to be a bystander this round, or are we going to directly challenge the higher-ups to get points?”
Previously, Xiao ran had maintained the position of the rear guard and deliberately placed the ranking of the immortal’s cave behind Meng Tong. This was to ensure double insurance. This way, even if Qiao hongcai couldn’t deal with Meng Tong, he could take the opportunity to make up for it. He could protect Qiao hongcai, who was in the top ranking of the immortal’s cave, and at the same time, effectively restrain Meng Tong.
However, the two consecutive rounds of losses had already proved that Qiao hongcai had the strength and confidence to confront Meng Tong head-on. In this case, Xiao ran’s double insurance seemed unnecessary and unnecessary.
Instead of wasting time with Meng Tong, this trash, it would be better to directly challenge and get points. This way, it would be more reliable.
However, Xiao ran replied with a smile,””I’ll just wait for a round. If I don’t beat Meng Tong up and let him go so easily, I’ll feel sorry for Hong Cai and myself.”
Currently, Meng Tong’s cave abode was number 13 at the foot of the mountain, while Xiao ran’s cave abode was number 14, which happened to be behind Meng Tong ‘s. Since they were on opposing sides, even a kind person like Xiao ran wouldn’t let go of such an opportunity to join the ranks.
Moreover, he wasn’t only venting his anger for Qiao hongcai, but also for Xiao ran himself. Don’t forget that Meng Tong had directly challenged Xiao ran in the first round. At that time, he hadn’t even reached the foundation establishment stage and was forced to admit defeat in public. He had been holding back his anger for a long time.
