Chapter 358 Using yourself as bait
"I'm just asking, what are you in such a hurry for."
Seeing Arnold's appearance, Sen couldn't help but ruffle his hair, with a gentle look on his face, "It's important to be on guard against others."
"They are really good people, and without them, I would not have returned safely."
Arnold said seriously, "Sen, I know you are worried about me, but I am not stupid. I can feel that they have no ill intentions."
"Okay, okay, what are you going to do next?"
Sen curled the corners of his mouth helplessly, with a unique doting look in his eyes.
Arnold thought for a while, then said seriously: "What's going on with the Sun family and the Nangong family? I can feel that this barrier won't last much longer. We can't just sit there and wait for death."
"They haven't spent any manpower looking for us recently, as if they have discovered something. However, most of the remaining members of our clan are of low cultivation. Even if we go to find them, they won't be able to help us much."
Sen couldn't help but sigh when he said this.
For elves like them, it takes many years to cultivate into human form, let alone practice.
Moreover, they were naturally close to Leiyin Mountain and had never faced danger before, so they were not proficient in the knowledge of cultivation, otherwise they would not have been completely defenseless when they invaded.
"Those brothers and sisters are very powerful. They want to deal with the Sun family and the Ouyang family. Although we can't help them, I can lead the way. I am very familiar with their terrain."
Arnold nodded but didn't force it.
Many tribesmen have sacrificed their lives to protect her before. Now he can just do it himself. There is no need to force others.
"No, this is too dangerous. You are our Saint, you must be safe."
Sen immediately rejected this idea, "Only if you survive, we will have a future."
"But I can't accept your protection with peace of mind. Although I am a saint, if I die, a new saint will appear."
Arnold clenched his fists and hesitated for a long time before looking at Sen seriously.
When Sen heard this, he did not respond for a short time.
He was silent, looking at Arnold with a serious expression.
Although this is true, after hundreds of years of living together, how could he bear to see Arnold die in front of him?
Even if he died, he would rather die with Arnold.
"You don't need to persuade me anymore. I will definitely go to help, even if it means risking my life. If I can drive these bad guys away, it will be worth it for the other tribesmen who sacrificed their lives to save me."
Arnold smiled slightly, reluctantly but with a resolute heart.
"If you must go, take me with you."
After a long time, Sen finally spoke with unparalleled determination. When Arnold did not respond, he continued, "This is the biggest step I can take. Arnold, don't reject me."
Arnold's pupils shrank slightly, and he bit his lips unconsciously. In the end, he could only nod slightly.
The two of them made the decision, and everything that followed was easily resolved.
Sen and Arnold went to find Suchen to decide on the next plan.
"As you can see, this barrier can't last much longer. The spiritual energy within it is constantly depleting. I'm afraid it will completely disappear within three days."
Sen went straight to the point and stated his current situation.
Su Chen could naturally feel that staying here was not a long-term solution. The people of Leiyin Mountain needed a new place to hide. "What are your plans next? Arnold and I will fully cooperate with you."
Sen continued, holding Arnold's hand and passing his warmth to Arnold.
Arnold stood next to Sen, so quiet, so gentle, so cuddly.
Su Chen looked at the two of them and couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of his heart. They were really a perfect match.
"Actually, it's okay if you don't need to help. The important thing is to protect your people."
Su Chen laughed dryly and said, "We will kill those outsiders and leave you in peace."
"It doesn't matter. I have no way to sneak into the Nangong family. On the surface, the Sun family and the Nangong family each occupy half of the mountain, but in fact they are in the same group. Today, the Sun family and the Nangong family are only in name, and there is another master behind them."
Sen pondered for a moment, then told all the information he knew in one breath.
This was something Su Chen had not expected. Since the master behind them was the same person, why did they act so incompatible with the outside world?
"Nangong Xuntian is the current head of the Nangong family. His cultivation has reached the peak of the quasi-emperor, but he is a fool and never thinks before doing anything. It will be easy to defeat him." Sen said slowly.
"We just need to spread the news... that we have found Arnold's trail. In order to take credit for it, Nangong Xuntian will definitely come looking for him alone. Then we can defeat them one by one."
When talking about Arnold, there was an obvious pause in Sen's tone, but Arnold tugged at his sleeve hard, and Sen continued.
"Isn't it too risky to use Arnold as bait?"
Su Chen said with some concern.
"It's okay. This is the fastest way. They want to find me the most right now. I could sense that there were two groups of people chasing me. Although they have the same master, no one is willing to submit to the other. They all want to do better."
Arnold immediately became anxious and hurriedly took two steps forward, his eyes blinking to show his determination.
Sen couldn't bear it, and subconsciously used his broad arms to protect Arnold. Arnold put Sen's arms down and looked at them seriously.
Although I was speechless because of how cute they were, this matter was not a joke by nature, but there was no better way for the moment.
For a moment, several people didn't know what to do.
"Don't hesitate any longer. This is something that Brother Mori and I have decided on. I am willing to do this, and at least this allows me to make a small contribution."
Seeing that they were all silent, Arnold was so anxious that he was about to cry, and hurried to defend himself.
"Okay, I will give you some protective magic weapons that can withstand the full force attack of the peak quasi-emperor realm and ensure your safety. If you see that the situation is not good, leave immediately."
Su Chen finally sighed and looked at Arnold with a serious expression.
When Arnold heard Su Chen agree, he nodded excitedly: "Don't worry, I will definitely protect myself!"
"I have a request, can you... agree to it?"
Sen had remained silent until now, but now he couldn't help but clench his fists and speak.
His eyes were sharp and full of determination as he swept over everyone present.
Arnold was confused by his sudden words and looked at him with some confusion.
