"Exactly, I could just take a direct shot and snipe him; he'd be dead!" said one of the snipers, following suit.
However, as soon as this sniper had spoken, all the other Fourth Grade Martial Warriors turned their eyes toward his direction, their gazes filled with hostility.
In front of this group of Fourth Grade Martial Warriors, claiming that a single shot could kill a Fourth Grade Martial Warrior was in itself a sign of disrespect to them.
A sign of disrespect to their sense of danger as Fourth Grade Martial Warriors!
The sniper who had just spoken saw so many Fourth Grade Martial Warriors looking at him, and the imposing aura they exuded made him feel somewhat uncomfortable in an instant.
Yet, whether it was the sniper or the other Fourth Grade Martial Warriors, they all felt somewhat puzzled in their hearts.
Why would Wang Ye be there alone, but their leader didn't let them directly attack and take Wang Ye down?
The fourth-rank peak martial artist faced the somewhat bewildered and puzzled gazes of the others, took a deep breath, and with a somewhat helpless look in his eyes, he said to them:
"You need to think about it. If Wang Ye has known from the very beginning that we were here, doesn't it also mean that he would be much more cautious, for fear that we would take him down?"
The words of the fourth-rank peak martial artist made the other warriors and snipers nod in agreement, believing that what he said was absolutely correct.
"If that's the case, then why has he not done anything to us until now, and instead just stands there looking idle?"
When the fourth-rank peak martial artist said this, the others felt that something was amiss.
"So, since Wang Ye is acting so recklessly right now, it also means that there must be other people around him. Maybe they are specifically lying in ambush for us, waiting for us to make a move. Then, the moment we do, Wang Ye and those lying in ambush for us will probably directly take us down."
As the fourth-rank peak martial artist spoke to this point, a glint of wisdom flashed in his eyes.
He felt very clever.
He had managed to see through Wang Ye's plan so easily.
Without rashly charging in.
Otherwise, had they fallen into Wang Ye's ambush, their plan would not have succeeded, and even their lives would likely have been at risk.
"The boss is mighty. I didn't expect the boss to think of so much. If it were us, we probably would have charged straight in without understanding the situation from the beginning. Now, with the boss's words, our safety has been greatly improved," one of the warriors said.
"Right, the boss is incredibly formidable; he has helped us avoid danger."
"The boss is truly strategic and wise, much like Master Wolong. Even in such a situation, he remains rational and is not blinded by the prospect of immediate success. He's truly an idol we should all learn from."
Listening to these people praising him, the fourth-rank peak martial artist's face also showed a hint of a smile. He had never felt so clever.
He had managed to see through Wang Ye's plan with just a glance.
Little did he know that, up to this point, Wang Ye had not yet noticed them at all.
And Wang Ye... probably couldn't imagine that the ones who had taken the task to deal with him were not yet to find him, but they felt it was dangerous to attack him and feared an ambush.
Thus, even after discovering him, they didn't choose to strike right away.
For the next two whole days, Wang Ye practiced diligently.
During these two days, except for a small amount of rest, Wang Ye stood under the Sword Pointer Waterfall, letting the waterfall's water impact him as he practiced the Water Severing Sword Technique.
In Wang Ye's opinion, the Water Severing Sword Technique should be practiced with momentum.
If not in conjunction with momentum, he had already reached a precise mastery of the Water Severing Sword Technique within just these two days.
Yet, during these two days, Wang Ye wasn't without gains.
In the process of practicing the Water Severing Sword Technique, Wang Ye could tell that there was a significant connection between the Water Severing Sword Technique and the Sword Pointer Waterfall, and indeed, there was momentum within the Water Severing Sword Technique.
With the right momentum, the Water Severing Sword Technique, no doubt, would unleash its strongest power.
As for the momentum, Wang Ye had already got a sense of it, but this feeling was indistinct and seemed to be shrouded in mist. Wang Ye knew it was there, but it was somewhat beyond his ability to grasp clearly at the moment.
Wang Ye figured that all he needed was for someone to press him into action.
As long as those with designs on him came and applied enough pressure, he would surely comprehend the momentum and thus break through to the Third Grade Martial Warrior realm.
But...
Why haven't those people come yet?
Impatience was starting to grow in Wang Ye's heart.
Those people couldn't possibly be so foolish that they still hadn't discovered him by now, could they?
Wang Ye felt a touch of helplessness.
At the same time, he even considered reaching out to these assassins, to let them know he was at the Sword Pointer Waterfall so that they could hurry up and assassinate him.
...
Meanwhile.
Above Wang Ye.
The faces of the eight Third Grade Martial Warriors and one sniper showed a strange expression.
They looked up to the fourth-rank peak martial artist and asked, "Boss, if someone really had been lying in ambush, why haven't we discovered any sign of them even after two days have passed?"
It wasn't that they were questioning him.
But two days had passed.
And in these two days, they had wanted to ask multiple times, but out of respect for their boss, they had refrained from doing so.
Now, they could hold back no longer.
"Yeah."
A sniper interjected:
"If someone has been lying in ambush nearby, then over these two days, they would definitely need to cook and eat, right? That would leave some trace or clue. But the issue is, we haven't found even the slightest trace of them."
"Moreover, after two days without ambushing anyone, the other side must be thinking if we have already arrived nearby..."
