Covering the Sky

Chapter 18: Opposition

Chapter 18: Opposition

Apr 16, 2023

Ye fan held the bronze lamp in his left hand and took two steps back, while his right hand grabbed the collar of the male student and almost lifted him off the ground.

Beside him, Pang Bo reacted angrily and shouted, "You ungrateful thing, have you forgotten who shared the bronze lamp with you earlier, protected your life, and safely brought you here?"

Pang Bo reached out and grabbed the male student's collar, wanting to throw him out of the Five-Color Altar. The scene made him furious.

"Cough..." The male student turned pale and struggled to escape from the grip of Ye Fan's hand, but he couldn't get away. At this moment, Pang Bo choked his neck, making him almost suffocate.

The other people around had different expressions, some had already been restless, but they didn't expect someone to really take action, especially against Ye Fan, who had helped them.

"Do you have any conscience, you ungrateful beast? If it weren't for Ye Fan saving you, you would have died outside!" Pang Bo became more and more angry, feeling that throwing him out was not enough to vent his anger. He raised his right hand and slapped the male student four or five times.

A male student from behind stepped forward to persuade him, "We have been classmates for four years. Don't do this, Pang Bo, let him go!"

Pang Bo glanced at him and said, "You want me to let go, so I should just let go? Didn't you see just now that he wanted to kill Ye Fan? If it weren't for Ye Fan's quick reaction, he would have been pushed out of the Five-Color Altar and fell into the storm. Can we let such a vicious bastard go?"

"We are from the same place, and we should work together now. Let's talk it out and put him down first," another male student stepped forward to persuade.

Pang Bo was very observant, and he recognized the person who stood with Liu Yunzhi earlier. Although they had already separated, Pang Bo believed that they were still working together. The male student whom he held in his hand was also with them just now. Although there was no evidence that they were co-conspirators, Pang Bo decided to remember them regardless of whether there was any evidence.

"It's easy for you to say. If someone wants to kill you, can you stay calm? If not, let me throw you out of the Five-Color Altar and see!" Pang Bo became more and more angry and slapped the male student a few more times.

"Don't make it worse, let's talk it out and put him down. We can discuss how to deal with him later," a female student also spoke up, glancing at Liu Yunzhi.

During this whole process, Liu Yunzhi remained calm and didn't step forward to persuade or express his opinion. He seemed to be uninvolved, just watching the development of the situation.

Ye Fan saw the expressions of everyone and realized that he couldn't get Liu Yunzhi to intervene. He stopped Pang Bo and said, "Let him go."

"Yes, let him go first."

"Right, let him go first. There's nothing that can't be resolved between classmates. Don't make it too tense," said the two male classmates who were trying to persuade earlier and the female classmate, as well as others who joined in the persuasion when they saw that even Ye Fan himself spoke up.

"Too tense? Don't you think we've already crossed that line?" Pang Bo glared at the male classmate who was in cahoots with Liu Yunzhi and said, "He almost killed Ye Fan, and yet you still make excuses for him."

But Pang Bo didn't continue to make a fuss. He saw Ye Fan's signal and finally let go.

However, to everyone's surprise, Pang Bo let go, but Ye Fan himself did not let go. He grabbed the male student's collar with one hand, almost lifting him up, and took a few steps to the edge of the Five-Colored Altar, as if he wanted to throw the male classmate out.

Everyone was stunned. No one expected Ye Fan to do this. At the same time, they were very surprised by Ye Fan's strength, thinking back to the time when he was called a barbarian in the green shade field during school. Ye Fan's appearance seemed gentle, but his physical strength was very strong, with amazing strength, just like picking up a little chick, he lifted the male classmate to the edge of the Five-Colored Altar with one hand.

"Before this, I saved your life. Why do you want to harm me?" Ye Fan pressed the male student against the edge of the altar with one hand, and he could push him down at any time, only half a foot away from the hazy light shield.

The male classmate was terrified and shouted, "Don't push me, I was misguided for a moment, I didn't know any better. Let me go, I won't do it again..."

Ye Fan smiled and showed his white teeth, looking very bright, and said, "People have motives for whatever they do, don't they? I really don't want to see you being swept up into the sky by the storm..." After speaking, he used one hand to press the male classmate and pushed him towards the outside of the Five-Colored Altar.

"Help!" The male student was really frightened, shouting loudly, "Let me go, I'll say everything..."

As a modern city person, where has he experienced this kind of scene? This male classmate was immediately overwhelmed, with a pale face and no blood color, facing the storm that was almost within reach.

"This is not good. Ye Fan should let him go. It's too dangerous to do that," said one of the classmates who tried to persuade earlier.

"Yeah, everything can be negotiated. We can't ignore the friendship between classmates. It would be bad if someone gets hurt," said another classmate.

The same few classmates who had tried to intervene before slowly walked over.

"Bang!"

Pang Bo heavily placed the half-person-tall copper plaque of the Leiyin Temple on the ground and glared at them, causing the group to stop in their tracks.

Turning back with a gentle smile, Ye Fan said, "It's alright, he's willing to tell me the reason, and I also want to hear where I went wrong. We won't have any unpleasantness, so don't worry."

When he faced the male student who had been pinned to the edge of the altar, his gaze suddenly became sharp. The message conveyed through his eyes was that he would push the student out if he didn't speak up.

"I...I didn't find anything in the temple, and I felt unsafe, so I...was tempted by greed. I'm really despicable!" he said, slapping himself.

Without saying anything, Ye Fan pushed him out, and half of his body was suspended in the air, almost touching the dim light barrier.

"Don't...help!" The male student shouted in terror, saying, "It was Li Changqing...he gave me the idea!"

Ye Fan pulled him back, and he didn't care about this "soft gun" without backbone; he couldn't pose a threat. If he really pushed him out of the Five-Color Altar in front of everyone, other classmates would have a very negative view of him. After all, they were classmates and this action would be more trouble than it was worth.

Ye Fan very naturally took the bottle of mineral water from him and patted his shoulder, saying, "We've been classmates for four years and are experiencing this crisis together. We need to support each other to get through it."

"I promise...I promise!" The male student, still trembling, retreated.

At this point, Pang Bo was already furious and charged towards Li Changqing with the bronze plaque in hand.

"Bang!"

Pang Bo was tall and sturdy with immense strength. With a swing of the plaque, he knocked Li Changqing to the ground.

"No wonder you kept trying to dissuade us. It turns out you were the one instigating things behind our backs!" Pang Bo pressed the plaque onto Li Changqing's body and exclaimed, "After being classmates for four years, you still plotted against us. Do you have no sense of decency?" Li Changqing was one of the people who stood with Liu Yunzhi not long ago and was also one of the people who kept trying to persuade them just now.

Yefan walked over and casually took the bottle of water from Li Changqing and handed it to Pang Bo.

When everyone saw him take the second bottle of water, their faces showed complicated expressions. If they couldn't escape Mars quickly, water would become the most precious resource in just a few hours.

Yefan felt regretful that he couldn't expose Liu Yunzhi. Even though he knew it was probably him who instigated things, there was no evidence, and it wasn't good to confront him in front of everyone.

Li Changqing was stubborn and didn't admit to anything, even though Pang Bo gave him a good beating. He only said his mind was clouded and that he shouldn't have spoken carelessly, causing the other student to become envious and attack Yefan.

Pang Bo wanted to throw him out of the Five-Colored Altar, but considering the feelings of the other classmates, he held back his anger and didn't do so. However, he felt that this seemingly peaceful relationship would be hard to maintain for long. If another survival crisis occurred, the former camaraderie and pride would be torn apart, as some people's hearts had already become restless.

Yefan wasn't angry and smiled amiably at Li Changqing, saying, "People can be complex, and sometimes we do things involuntarily. But it's best to have some self-awareness and not be used as a pawn by others."

As he spoke, he crouched down and calmly reached for a broken fish drum on Li Changqing's waist, which was the antique he had found at the Da Leiyin Temple.

"What are you doing?" Li Changqing struggled fiercely. Even though he didn't change his expression when Pang Bo hit him just now, he became flustered at this moment and tried to cover the fish drum on his waist. But with his upper body still being pressed down by Pang Bo's plaque, he couldn't use any strength and couldn't stop Yefan.

"Dong!"

Suddenly, the fish drum on Li Changqing's body emitted a muffled thunderous sound, and a series of green lights shot out, like lightning dancing in the air.

It was like the divine drum of the Thunder God, buzzing and trembling, and then a louder thunderous sound erupted, accompanied by a purple glow that immediately enveloped Li Changqing.

The glow was dazzling, like a purple cocoon, radiating brilliant divine radiance that illuminated the entire Five-Colored Altar.

Everyone around was shocked, feeling a ringing in their ears. Some even stood unsteadily and nearly fell to the ground.

At the same time, the bronze plaque in Pang Bo's hand emitted thousands of rays of light, accompanied by thunderous sounds. The four characters "Da Lei Yin Temple" shone brightly, and the ethereal chanting echoed in the air.

The sound of Buddhist chanting was like thunder!

The dazzling light emitted by the bronze plaque of the Da Lei Yin Temple immediately suppressed the purple cocoon, and the sound emitted by the fish drum disappeared.

At the same time, the bronze antique lamp in Ye Fan's hand shed a soft light, enveloping him in a layer of holy light that uniformly covered his body. He looked like he was wearing a sacred battle armor.

The light was not dazzling, but rather hazy and gentle, yet it made everyone feel a sense of awe, as if a deity was standing there. The layer of holy light was like a divine garment, making Ye Fan appear more transcendent and otherworldly.

The fish drum was immediately suppressed, and the purple glow subsided, causing the cocoon to disappear. The broken fish drum became dull and ordinary, returning to its ordinary state. Ye Fan calmly reached out and took it, nothing could stop him now. He seemed like a living deity, and the antique lamp swayed with divine radiance, making him appear even more extraordinary.

At this moment, the female classmate who had previously advised Ye Fan and Pang Bo not to fight approached with a damaged bronze bell in her hand and said, "Ye Fan, what you did was a bit too much!"

Immediately after, another male classmate followed suit and said, "We should be harmonious with each other and not be confrontational. The matter should be let go of, and we shouldn't be too decisive."

These two had been taking the side of Liu Yunzhi and Li Changqing from the beginning, and their stance was already clear. They obviously did not want Ye Fan to obtain any more divine objects.

At this time, Liu Yunzhi, who had been indifferent to the situation, approached with a Vajra scepter in hand and said, "Let it go, Ye Fan. Even if he was in the wrong, you can't punish him like this. Doing so is equivalent to taking away his life."

To Ye Fan's surprise, Zhou Yi, who had been uninvolved all this time, also walked up with a purple-golden bowl in hand and advised, "Ye Fan, you should not take away his fish drum. You already have the bronze lamp, and having another artifact is useless. If he loses the fish drum, he may be killed by the unknown and terrible thing lurking in the dark."
