Rebirth as a Tiger: Sister is the Reborn Empress!-Chapter 419 - 417: Oh No, We’ve Been Tricked!

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their heads to look over.

Everyone was puzzled at Jiang Che’s volunteering; this puppet array wasn’t something easy to deal with. Was Thunder Tiger King out of his mind? So daring?

Of course, since Jiang Che was willing to take the risk and exert himself for free, they naturally wouldn’t refuse, and they even praised him greatly. After all, it wasn’t them who might get hurt.

If Thunder Tiger King could defeat the puppets this time, they could enter the Thunder Emperor Palace smoothly, without having to lift a finger, with someone else clearing the obstacles for them. How delightful!

And if Thunder Tiger ended up unable to defeat the battle array puppet and got himself injured instead, those forces would secretly rejoice.

Tiger King Ridge’s relationship with the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall and the major ancient human sects was known to be dire.

Especially with the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall and the Shushan Sword Sect, both sides had their talented elders killed by Tiger King Ridge.

"I’ve long heard of Thunder Tiger King’s prowess, said to be peerless in the world; today, we ought to witness it well!"

Holding the Heavenly Dao Mirror, Qing Wei was enveloped in the clear radiance emitted by the mirror’s surface, wearing a faint smile as he complimented Jiang Che.

In front of them, the eight battle array puppets, although they believed Celestial Dao Sect could defeat or destroy them, the foreseeable cost was quite considerable.

It’s very likely there would be casualties. How could Celestial Dao Sect break through by sacrificing themselves, only for other forces to benefit?

Now that Thunder Tiger King volunteered, it suited his purpose; given his strength, he’d be a significant threat in the treasure battle.

But if they could, before entering the Thunder Emperor Palace for treasure, use the power of the battle array puppets—not even to kill him, but just to injure Thunder Tiger King—it would be good.

At the very least, in the upcoming treasure battle, an injured Thunder Tiger King could be considered out of the game.

"Thunder Tiger King, I didn’t expect you to have such courage; I truly admire you! Next, we’ll be watching you."

Elder Qilin of the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall showed a fake smile and flattered indifferently.

Hopefully, Thunder Tiger King would also end up like Qing Shi of the Pure Origin Immortal Sect, gravely injured and falling to the ground.

Following this, other forces also followed suit, flattering Jiang Che, implying that only he could handle the battle array puppets ahead.

In their consciousness, they thought only Jiang Che had hope to help them clear this stage!

In response, Jiang Che smiled coldly inwardly; how could he not know these people’s true intentions?

However, it was a critical moment; he needed to buy some time for the second, so he could quickly control the puppet array, thus obligingly following their words without refuting them.

Under everyone’s gaze, Jiang Che slowly walked towards the front.

Behind him, Nangong Luo looked at her elder brother’s back in confusion and surprise; the events happened too fast, and by the time she realized, her brother had already moved to the front of the line.

Regarding her brother’s behavior, willing to take the chestnuts from the fire for the benefit of other major forces, Nangong Luo didn’t understand.

It was too abnormal; her brother had never been like this, so why suddenly volunteer?

Could there be some hidden scheme he hadn’t shared with her?

Thinking of this, Nangong Luo couldn’t help but turn and look at Fang Yuan, who was silent beside her, with an exploratory gaze, wondering if it might be related to this second brother?

She had already noticed that both of them had some strange looks, as if they were hiding something from her, secretly plotting something.

Now, seeing that the other was not surprised at all when her brother stepped forward, maintaining a calm demeanor, further confirmed her previous suspicions.

Suspicious, really too suspicious.

At this moment, Fang Yuan knew Nangong Luo was watching him, but he remained unperturbed, focused forward, as if unfazed.

Things like these were best kept secret for now; anyway, once his brother controlled the puppet array, it would naturally come to light.

At this moment, Fang Yuan looked as if he was standing still, but in fact, he was secretly transmitting to Jiang Che, instructing him on how to control the puppet battle array.

A few breaths later, Jiang Che finally reached the front, summoning the Donghuang Bell into his palm, slowly turning it. The ancient bell’s body emitted layers of mystical Dao rhythms. Purple light swiftly swept across Kunlun Mountain.

Boom!

The next moment, Jiang Che, wielding the Donghuang Bell, swung the Heavenly Hack in his hand, attacking the eight silver puppets ahead.

Clang!

The deep sound of the bell shattered the thunder emitted by the puppets from tens of meters away.

Then, the Heavenly Hack in Jiang Che’s hand slammed towards the eight silver puppets like a collapsing giant pillar.

Rumble~

The next moment, the eight silver puppets moved, connected by thunder between them, their forms changing. Thunder surged as they pointed their spears at the approaching Jiang Che. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Instantly, eight black and purple thunderbolts gathered, forming a thunder spear similar to before, attacking Jiang Che.

Facing this strike, Jiang Che was actually fearless, but to buy time, he had to put on an act.

Boom!

Jiang Che pretended to be unable to block in time, hit directly by the thunder spear. The Donghuang Bell roared, and the descending purple light curtain rippled with waves.

The enormous force caused Jiang Che to uncontrollably fall back a full hundred meters before barely stabilizing himself, looking quite battered.

"I don’t believe this!"

The next moment, Jiang Che, who had been knocked back, feigned anger, grabbed the Heavenly Hack, and charged again.

Rumble~

For a moment, Jiang Che was in an intense fight with the eight silver puppets. Facing a powerful puppet battle array, Jiang Che was, of course, "outmatched," relying solely on the Donghuang Bell to barely cope.

"Hmph, merely this."

"I thought Thunder Tiger King was mightier, but he’s still getting beaten badly..."

"Not living up to the name..."

"..."

Seeing Jiang Che in such a sorry state, others were gleeful, laughing derisively.

They didn’t know that Jiang Che, following Fang Yuan’s secret guidance, began to control the puppet battle array’s core.

Every clash was an opportunity for Jiang Che to infiltrate the battle array.

Seeing Jiang Che gradually controlling the puppet battle array’s core, the ancestor of the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall, who had been watching Jiang Che, suddenly felt something was amiss, frowning.

Realizing it, his face changed dramatically as he shouted, "Not good! We’ve been tricked!"
