I'm only one year old, what the heck is a Overturning System?!-Chapter 277 - 150 A Sword from the West (Please Subscribe)

Sudden and unexpected!

No one thought Chen Yuan would turn around and leave so decisively.

This was not only beyond the expectations of Xie Dongan and the people at the Book Storage Tower, but the Monkey Demon and the four Great Demons were also taken aback.

The situation was very clear.

With Xie Dongan and the Fifteenth Prince Wei Nantian restraining inside the Book Storage Tower, those Great Demons did not dare to easily attack Chen Yuan.

Outside, Chen Yuan exerted certain pressure, and thereby had the chance to fight against the Great Demons one by one, excluding the Monkey Demon.

As long as he could slay another Great Demon, the balance of power would tend toward equilibrium.

According to Xie Dongan’s strategy, he could ensure that at least half of the people inside the Book Storage Tower would survive.

But now...

Jiang Ye opened his mouth in astonishment, saying, "Why would he do such a thing?!"

Tomboy Princess Wei Jinyu glanced at him, then turned her gaze toward the receding figure of Chen Yuan, also puzzled in her heart.

"Even the simple-minded Xiao Yezi can see, he couldn’t have missed it, so why would he choose to leave?"

Wei Jinyu’s gaze flickered toward Xie Dongan, thinking to herself that perhaps Dong An didn’t expect this either?

She thought for a moment, then sent a Sound Transmission, "Dong An, I’ll go find the fifteenth brother, let’s break out..."

"No," Xie Dongan immediately refused without thinking, "There’s no chance for escape now!"

He and the Fifteenth Prince collaborating was a last resort among last resorts, indicating they had no other choice against creatures like the Monkey Demon.

If their escape failed and they lost their last trump card...

Then, they would be completely out of options, unable to even maintain a facade of strength!

"So, what shall we do?"

"Wait a bit longer."

"Wait until when?" Wei Jinyu asked, biting her lips.

She really wanted to chase after Chen Yuan to ask why he wasn’t cooperating in rescuing the people of the Book Storage Tower.

But since Xie Dongan was unwilling to make a move, she could only watch helplessly as Chen Yuan disappeared at the edge of the secret realm.

"Wait until a Heavenly Pride as powerful as Chen Yuan arrives!"

Saying this, Xie Dongan couldn’t help but think of Chen Yi.

Among the Heavenly Prides who came to the secret realm this time, besides him and Wei Nantian, only "Little Sword Immortal" Chen Yi had the strength to change the current situation.

"Soul Chaser Yuan Dingshan is also powerful enough."

"But his specialty is Taoist Skill, and when facing rudely straightforward demons, he needs someone to cooperate with him."

As for others who came here, they would likely die under the Monkey Demon’s spear before even laying eyes on the Book Storage Tower.

Wei Jinyu hesitated and tentatively asked, "Just hope the newcomers are not like Chen Yuan, right?"

...

Xie Dongan’s mouth twitched slightly, momentarily at a loss for words.

He couldn’t figure out the reason for Chen Yuan’s departure, attributing it only to the influence of the Absolute Blade Intent.

Wei Jinyu confirmed her suspicions and continued to ask, "So, would Chen Yi also choose to flee?"

Xie Dongan blandly transmitted back, "When he arrives, you’ll understand."

Wei Jinyu pursed her lips and fell silent.

As the two were talking, Xie Dongan’s gaze remained fixed on the Monkey Demon.

His aura of Vast Energy shimmered around him like breathing, now strong, now weak.

In his eyes, the demon energy of the Monkey Demon seemed as profound and terrifying as hell, boundless.

The spear technique of the Monkey Demon was still clear, just as Chen Yuan had conjectured—it had already reached the Transparent Realm!

Such a formidable demon was among the most formidable Xie Dongan had ever encountered.

In his knowledge, demons prioritize strength over technique, valuing Cultivation Realm over pathways of skills.

However, the Monkey Demon before him was progressing on par in both aspects, both demon energy and spear technique were immensely strong.

If the younger generation of the Demon Court were all like this, the upcoming battle at Taizhou Mountain would likely meet more peril than fortune...

A long silence.

It was only after Chen Yuan’s figure had completely disappeared that the Monkey Demon snapped back to reality, baring its teeth and grinned:

"It seems your calculations have come to nothing!"

Xie Dongan said lightly, "At least one person has already left this secret realm, hasn’t he?"

The Monkey Demon’s face darkened, and just as it was about to speak, Xie Dongan continued:

"I almost forgot, he also killed one of your followers."

"Puhaha."

Jiang Ye, watching the Monkey Demon’s face turn ashen, couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

"Dong An, those two sentences of yours truly strike home, look how it’s making that monkey so mad its face is turning green."

Wei Jinyu smiled as well, saying, "How else do you think Dong An is a University Scholar of the Capital City Academy?"

Confucian Disciples, with a word, wield might as a blade, the more profound their scholarship, the more powerful their words.

Even though Xie Dongan’s words just now weren’t enhanced by the Vast Energy, they still managed to infuriate the Monkey Demon.

"Sharp-tongued indeed, I look forward to seeing how long you can keep laughing!"

With that, the Monkey Demon gestured to one of the demons, indicating it to pursue Chen Yuan.

As one Great Demon departed, the remaining three shifted their positions into a triangular stance, still encircling the Book Storage Tower.

The Monkey Demon, looking into the Book Storage Tower at Xie Dongan, sneered, "As you wished, one less person, do you dare to come out and battle?"

Xie Dongan’s heart stirred, asking, "Knowing my intentions, why would you arrange it this way?"

The Monkey Demon’s eyes gleamed ferociously, its demon energy malevolent, snorted coldly, "You’re nothing but a group of weaklings; even if it’s just me remaining, what of it?"

These words couldn’t be more domineering, even Xie Dongan felt a chill upon hearing this, let alone the others in the Book Storage Tower.

Moments later, everyone inside the Book Storage Tower was stirred up, all eyes turning to Xie Dongan and Wei Nantian.

"How can it be so arrogantly presumptuous!?"

"Scholar Xie, Prince Wei, how can you tolerate this? We might as well fight to death!"

"Let’s fight it!"

Xie Dongan turned back and spoke in an even tone:

"I can only ensure the safety of three to five people, the rest will die, even so, do you all still want to fight?"
