Chapter 1523: Send Us Off

After days of exploration, the four brothers had finally uncovered the mystery of this formation.

"This person is truly malicious. There's only one exit in this formation!" the toad weakly shouted. "That means only one of us four brothers can break through this formation!"

"That guy was telling the truth. He wants to watch us brothers kill each other, draining our fortune," the black-clad man said hoarsely.

Clearly, the shadow's grand formation was designed to drain their fortune and trap the four brothers.

From his deductions, the shadow had seen the extraordinary nature of the four brothers.

A centipede dies but does not stiffen.

At the level of the four brothers, with the protection of great fortune, even if they were directly killed, they might still somehow revive and return.

Thus, the shadow's priority was to deal with their fortune.

Only by exhausting their fortune and then killing them could he truly eliminate these troubles.

"I can't hold on anymore!"

After saying this, the toad collapsed to the ground.

He was trembling uncontrollably, a sign of exhaustion.

Not just him, but Yi Feng and the other two were also on the verge of collapse.

"Toad, hold on, we'll definitely find a way!" Yi Feng encouraged.

"Ah..."

The toad sighed softly, looking up.

Before his eyes, scenes from their first meeting flashed by.

The days they spent drinking and laughing together.

The battles they fought side by side, exploring secret realms and facing powerful enemies.

All these memories were vivid.

After parting and reuniting, their bond had grown even stronger.

The four brothers had long regarded each other as life-and-death comrades.

But now, it seemed it was time to part again.

And this time, they might never meet again.

The toad pondered, his expression constantly changing.

There was hesitation in his decision, sorrow in parting, resolve in facing death, and frustration at being unable to break the formation.

All these emotions culminated in one sentence.

"Big brother, kill the three of us. You go out and avenge us!" the toad said heavily.

The snail and the black-clad man also looked at Yi Feng.

Yi Feng could see despair and determination in their eyes.

These two opposing emotions could coexist in the eyes of his three brothers.

"That's right, big brother. This can't go on. You must survive and avenge us, avenge Wenjiu City!" the black-clad man said hoarsely.

"Big brother, the rest is up to you. We're useless, we can't accompany you on this final journey," the snail said sadly.

Yi Feng angrily said, "All of you, pull yourselves together! I, Yi Feng, am not a coward who fears death. If we die, we die together!"

Of course, he couldn't kill his three brothers and live on alone.

The three brothers exchanged glances.

Suddenly.

The three brothers lifted the protective formation, as if they had planned it all along.

They acted in perfect unison, sealing and restraining Yi Feng.

Yi Feng was trapped in a confined barrier.

"You, what are you doing?"

He looked at his brothers in disbelief, roaring and pounding on the cage.

The cage was extremely small, and Yi Feng couldn't even swing his sword.

But the formation blocked all external attacks.

The three brothers, disregarding their own safety, were exposed to various attacks.

They were immediately struck by a barrage of attacks, severely injured, spitting blood, their auras weakening.

Seeing this, Yi Feng's eyes turned bloodshot.

He trembled uncontrollably, a mix of rage and heartache.

He shouted hoarsely, "Let me out! You three, let me out! If we die, we die together. You're making me a traitor!"

Yi Feng continued to shout, gathering all his energy to break through the seal.

But the confined space within the seal, combined with the energy of his three brothers, made it impossible.

Despite his efforts, he couldn't break free from this invisible prison.

The three brothers kept reinforcing the seal, ignoring Yi Feng's desperate pleas.

"Big brother, among the four of us, you're the strongest. Only you can avenge us," the toad said weakly.

"Big brother, I've lived enough. My greatest joy was having you as my big brother. Though my swordsmanship isn't as good as yours, I've had more women than you! Hahaha!" the black-clad man laughed freely.

"Big brother, if there's a next life, let's be brothers again! We'll go first. You must live well for us," the snail said.

Yi Feng frantically pounded on the barrier, screaming, "Let me out! Let's work together to break this formation. At worst, we'll die together!"

"Big brother, we can't all fall here. Someone has to go out and kill that shadow."

"Someone has to build our tombstones. Big brother, you wouldn't want us to die without even a tombstone, right?"

"That's right, big brother. Remember to bring us some good wine every year on this day."

After saying this, the black-clad man raised his hand, forming a protective barrier around the three of them.

Then.

The black-clad man took out three jars of wine from his storage ring, handing them to the toad and the snail.

"Toad, snail, let's drink one last jar, to send ourselves and our brothers off!"

"Alright, snail, stop vomiting."

"Okay, let's drink. Big brother, we'll trouble you to see us off. Hope to meet again in the next life."

"Let's be brothers again in the next life!"

...

"Gulp, gulp, gulp."

The three brothers lifted the jars and drank heartily.

Yi Feng's eyes were red, screaming in agony.

But the three brothers were resolute in their decision to die, ignoring his pleas.

"Ha!"

After drinking, the three brothers smashed the jars.

"This formation's attacks are too slow. It's not strong enough to kill us. Let's send each other off!"

"Alright, less suffering that way."

"Count to three, then we strike together."
