Sensing Bai Xuening's anxiety, Hu Xiaobei gave a faint smile and said confidently, "Don't worry, no matter how formidable they are, in front of me, it's all meaningless!"

Hu Xiaobei knew that he had now become one with the entire array.

Therefore, not to mention an Array Master, even a more formidable Grandmaster would gain no advantage before him.

So any worry now was truly superfluous.

"You… If you say so, then I'm relieved!"

Just as Bai Xuening eased her mind, she heard a hoarse voice from outside.

"I know you must be hiding nearby, now come out! Let's have a proper talk, Bai Family's genius Array Master."

Shao He and the young people from the Shao Family turned slightly pale when they heard the four people from the Xie Family speak in such a low tone.

The next second, they quickly looked around but found no sign of anyone hiding.

"This… Could these people be mistaken? How could there possibly be anyone hiding here!"

"That's right, if there were someone hiding here, we would have seen them by now!"

"I feel the same way."

After nervously scanning the surroundings, all the young people from the Shao Family murmured to themselves like this.

They believed it was definitely impossible for anyone to be hiding nearby.

Because if there really was someone hiding here, they surely would have been discovered long ago.

"Hold your tongues! If they could be so easily found by you, would they still be considered top-tier Array Masters?"

Shao He scolded them after hearing their mutterings...

He had also observed the surroundings before...

He didn't believe anyone was hiding nearby either, but he still chose to trust those four people from the Xie Family.

Because he had dealt with the Xie Family people before and knew that their Array Masters were truly formidable.

In the woods...

"Big Brother Xiaobei, what… what do we do now?"

"Yeah, otherwise, otherwise let's retreat quickly!"

"Yes, yes."

Feeling as though they might have been discovered, they couldn't help feeling nervous.

Sensing the nervousness of Bai Mengmeng and the others, Hu Xiaobei chuckled.

Soon, Hu Xiaobei asked curiously, "Why should we retreat? Since they want to see us, let's go out and have a proper chat with them, shall we? What, are we actually afraid of them?"

Hu Xiaobei was very calm at the moment...

He knew that if he did not want to go out, they would never be able to find him in their lifetime...

However, Hu Xiaobei was willing to go out and talk to them, because he was eager to know exactly what they had up their sleeves.

"Big Brother Xiaobei, do we… do we really need to go out?"

Hearing Bai Mengmeng's anxious inquiry, Hu Xiaobei patted her little head, "Yes! Let's go out! Don't worry, absolutely nothing will happen!"

"Okay, I trust Big Brother Xiaobei!"

Hearing Bai Mengmeng's words, Hu Xiaobei smiled and soon, he lightly snapped his fingers...

In an instant, the plants surrounding Hu Xiaobei began to fade away...

Soon, Hu Xiaobei and the others appeared before the people from the Shao Family.

...

"So they really were here!"

Seeing Hu Xiaobei and the others appear, the pupils of the four black-clad men from the Xie Family constricted slightly...

Earlier, based on their intuition, they felt that the person setting up the array might be hiding here...

But they could not pinpoint the exact location...

In order to lure the person who set up the array to come out, they deliberately shouted that way...

Now that they saw someone appear, they knew they had guessed correctly...

...

"Damn it, they really were hiding here!"

After seeing Hu Xiaobei and the others appear, the young people from the Shao Family felt utterly humiliated.

Before, they thought this place couldn't hide anyone...

Turns out, Hu Xiaobei and his companions were right under their noses.

"This... this is such a slap in the face!"

With that crazed howl in their minds, one of the young men bellowed wildly, "Since they've come out, grab them for me. At a time like this, we don't need to talk about morality and ethics with them."

After saying that, he ran forward as if he'd lost his mind.

The other young men from the Shao Family were stunned for a moment, then quickly raced forward.

They were now regretting not running faster...

In their eyes, whoever led the charge could potentially earn merit!

"Damn it! This guy is really sly!"

Belittlingly thinking in their hearts, those trailing began to charge forward with gritted teeth.

The young man in the lead noticed them coming after him and smirked coldly...

He was absolutely confident in sprinting!

Therefore, he knew they couldn't catch him, which meant the credit for this deed was surely his.

As he thought this excitedly, his gaze turned increasingly fiery towards Hu Xiaobei...

To him, that was not just a person, but an Immortal Pill that would ensure a carefree life.

...

"Brother Xiaobei, this..."

Bai Mengmeng saw these people madly rushing over and nervously gripped Hu Xiaobei's arm...

"It's okay! They can't make it over here!"

After reassuring Bai Mengmeng, Hu Xiaobei softly snapped his fingers, and in that instant, the deep blue vines around them began to slowly gather...

Seeing them convene, Bai Mengmeng and the others let out a sigh of relief and soon looked at the charging young men with faces full of pity...

...

"What... what's going on?"

After continuing to run forward a little more, his eyelids twitched...

The reason for this was because he noticed the Bai Family people looking at him with pity in their eyes.

"Could it be... could something have gone wrong?"

As he thought this, he subconsciously turned his head...

At that moment, he saw those who had been chasing him frantically retreating.

"Damn, what... what in the world is happening!?"

While he was still dazed, he saw a cluster of blue vines rapidly encircling him from not too far away.

He screamed in terror the moment he saw them...

But it was already too late; in an instant, he was completely swallowed up...

...

The people from the Xie Family watched this scene without any reaction...

They had guessed it would turn out this way.

In their opinion, if the Array Master was so easy to handle, Shao Long from the Shao Family wouldn't have ended up in such a sorry state before.

Hu Xiaobei didn't know their thoughts, but as he watched the young men quickly retreating, he casually said, "I'm right here. Whoever wants to catch me to claim the credit can try anytime, but remember, I won't go down without a fight."

After that statement, Hu Xiaobei snapped his fingers again.

Following Hu Xiaobei's gesture, the cluster of deep blue vines that had surged forward before began to swarm again.

They pissed themselves!

The young people from the Shao Family saw them furiously swirling and immediately got scared shitless.

They weren't idiots; they knew the one who had charged forward earlier was likely doomed...

Thinking of this, they started to feel fortunate...

They realized, had they rushed in too eagerly just now, it would be them meeting their end...

While they were feeling relieved, they heard someone from the Xie Family speak up with a cold voice...

"We've been in hiding for five years, and to think that such a formidable Array Master has emerged now. May we have the honor of knowing your name?"

"Of course, that's not a problem, my name is... Oh, right, let me test you! An '父' on top and a '多' on the bottom, what does it read?"
