Chapter 88: Mind Attack and Defense
"I told you to stop, did you hear me?" Wang Wenjie saw that the other party did not answer and was still running around, and finally he could no longer bear it and shouted angrily.
The sound was so loud that it startled the visitor.
"I heard it, I heard it. Is there something wrong?" Xu Lai actually stopped and looked at him.
Damn it! Wang Wenjie didn't know why he was so angry. He knew that this situation was a taboo, so he let out a breath and calmed himself down.
"Wait a minute, wait until I'm done." Xu Lai greeted him and immediately started working again, and his movements were even faster. In a short while, several small nodes were broken.
Fuck you!
Wang Wenjie's mood, which had just calmed down, immediately became furious again. However, he was a veteran after all, and as soon as his anger flared up, he immediately became alert.
This man's seemingly inexplicable behavior almost provoked him to the point of losing his balance of mind twice in a row. You know, this is a taboo for mages, and even more so for magic duels.
If this person didn't do it unintentionally, then he must be a master who is well versed in this.
Wang Wenjie immediately suppressed his anger and his mentality immediately returned to peace and calm.
"Okay, it's done. Now you can talk about your business." Xu Lai finally clapped his hands and calmed down.
Wang Wenjie was stunned and took a closer look. Damn it! This guy's continuous tinkering just now actually paralyzed one of the eight directions of Zhen Wanxian!
Although this is only a small part of the entire Zhenwanxian Formation and has little impact, and can be completely repaired afterwards, but no matter what, the loss of one direction will still bring about changes to a greater or lesser extent.
The most direct impact is that the people in Tianshi Mansion and the Ninth Section may not be eliminated for the time being.
But even if he can't do anything about that group of people for the time being, trapping them will be no problem. He just needs to wait until he has dealt with them and then deal with them.
Wang Wenjie took a deep breath, comforted himself, and managed to suppress the anger that had just risen up.
"Mr. Pei, you have lost a lot of weight recently?" Wang Wenjie was about to speak when he heard the other party say this.
Wang Wenjie gritted his teeth and forced himself to suppress his temper. The two had met at Pei Xueqing's birthday party that night, so he naturally recognized Xu Lai.
But his appearance had changed drastically at this time, and the other party could still say that he was Pei Ji, which could only mean that the other party already knew the inside story.
"You are Wang Wenjie, am I mistaken?" Xu Lai looked over.
Wang Wenjie stared at Xu Lai and asked through gritted teeth: "How did you know?"
He had been hiding in Jiangning City for many years under the name Pei Ji, and his identity could be said to be extremely secretive. If Liao Huaixian had not happened to be present today, and if he had not made up his mind to bury all these people in Zhen Wanxian without deliberately avoiding them, it would have been impossible for anyone to guess his true identity.
"You look almost the same as the portrait when you were wanted. Is it surprising that I recognize you?" Xu Lai wondered.
Wang Wenjie was also stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the other party recognized him based on his appearance. Back then, he was hunted by the entire martial arts sect, and his portrait was passed to various sects and families. It was not impossible that the other party had seen it and remembered it.
After knowing the reason, Wang Wenjie secretly breathed a sigh of relief. What he feared most was that he would accidentally reveal a flaw and be discovered by outsiders. Once his secret was leaked, even if he eliminated all the people here, it would not take long for endless mages to come to him, and all his hard work would be in vain.
"But even if I don't look at your face, I can tell who you are just by thinking about it. There are too many flaws." Xu Lai continued.
Wang Wenjie was shocked when he heard this, but he soon became alert. He thought the other party was just pretending and trying to be mysterious, and he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
"Did you use some Yin-Yang magic to shrink your bones?" Xu Lai looked him up and down.
"The one below Wenlan is your wife, right? You killed her, didn't you?"
"You planted the seeds of your son and daughter's fetus, didn't you?"
"It was you who entered the secret room!" Wang Wenjie interrupted with a gloomy look. The reason why he suddenly took action tonight was, firstly, because the Ninth Section deliberately released Pei Xueyi to test her, secondly, because of Pei Xueqing's Yin-Yang ghost fetus incident, and thirdly, because he noticed that the secret room under Wenlan was invaded.
This secret room contains a huge secret of Wang Wenjie, so naturally there would be no unguarded measures. At that time, Gao Xiang was talking to Xu Lai on the phone, and suddenly a sharp scream came from the phone. It was the formation in the secret room that was activated, disrupting the magnetic field.
The formation Wang Wenjie had set up was extremely powerful, but unfortunately he encountered Xu Lai, who was also proficient in numerology, and was unable to keep him.
Xu Lai chuckled but didn't answer him. Instead, he continued, "That formation is very advanced. You also set up this formation to suppress all immortals, right?"
"How do you know about Zhen Wanxian? How can you defeat Zhen Wanxian?" After hearing what Xu said, Wang Wenjie finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked in a stern voice.
In the final analysis, this was his biggest confusion. He knew very well how complex and profound the formation of Zhen Wanxian was. He absolutely did not believe that this formation could be easily broken by anyone, even by someone with a high level of numerology!
Wang Wenjie stared at Xu Lai without blinking, he really wanted to know the reason.
"What's so strange about this? I can also suppress all the immortals." Xu said.
Wang Wenjie was stunned for a moment.
It is because the other party can also suppress all immortals that he can break the structure of the formation so accurately. What a simple answer!
But how is this possible? This Zhen Wanxian formation is a secret formation of the Zang Sect. It is not something that can be picked up anywhere. The tomb chamber was destroyed by him and Liao Huaixian. Where did this Xu learn the Zhen Wanxian formation?
Could it be that this person also happened to find a formation diagram for suppressing all the immortals in an ancient tomb?
But the possibility of such a coincidence is too low, isn't it?
All of a sudden, all kinds of thoughts and speculations came to my mind.
Wang Wenjie is a gloomy and cold-hearted person. He shouldn't be so agitated, but this Zhen Wanxian is indeed one of the biggest secrets in his life.
He had always believed that he was the only one in the world who knew this formation, and even the Zang Sect might not have inherited this formation, so he was very proud of it. Now, he suddenly found out that there was someone who could suppress all the immortals, and he was immediately distracted.
But this was just a matter of a split second. Wang Wenjie was immediately shocked and quickly held his breath. He was secretly lucky that the other party did not take advantage of the moment when he was impatient. It seemed that although his skills were high, his experience was still immature.
Wang Wenjie saw through this and immediately had an idea in his mind. He laughed and said, "If I remember correctly, you are Xu Lai, right? The headmaster of Tianshi Mansion?"
Although Xu Lai's origins are strange, it is not a big secret. As long as you are willing to work hard, it is not difficult to find out.
"You know this too?" Xu Lai looked very surprised.
You are still young and immature! Wang Wenjie sneered in his heart.
"It's quite rare to climb to such a high position at such a young age. It's a pity that you turned out to be a stray dog and got kicked out by someone, right?" Wang Wenjie had completely adjusted his mentality at this time, and said calmly.
In a duel of numerology, the most important thing to avoid is being impatient and losing your composure. Wang Wenjie was wary of Xu Lai's numerology skills, so he wanted to use words to disrupt the other party's defense.
Xu Lai chuckled.
Wang Wenjie saw this and became even more confident. In his opinion, the other party had been hit in the sore spot by his words and had nothing to say.
A young man full of vigor and vitality was pulled down in such an embarrassing way at the moment of his greatest success. If it happened to anyone, it would probably become a lifelong shadow that would linger in their mind.
Xu Lai is no exception.
"Master Xu, this doesn't feel good, does it?" Wang Wenjie continued to induce.
"Haha, it's okay. Old Wang, you were chased all over the world, you were much more embarrassed than me." Xu Lai retorted.
Although Wang Wenjie's eyelids twitched and his face turned black when he heard the name "Old Wang", he did not feel angry at all. Instead, he was secretly delighted.
In his opinion, Xu Lai was too young after all and had already begun to fall into his trap. The man's rebuttal was just a dead duck's stubbornness.
"I heard that you have been in charge of the Tianshi Mansion for five years and have managed it in an orderly manner. Even if you have no merit, you have worked hard, right? The people in the Shumen are really shameless villains. They are destroying the bridge after crossing it." While Wang Wenjie continued to induce, he kept a close eye on Xu Lai, waiting for the opportunity to take action immediately.
