Chapter 807
byAfter letting them vent to their heart’s content for a while, Wu Jie said, “Do you two think that if Wu Mou takes action, the situation can be reversed? You also saw that kind of attack. Even if there is one more Wu Mou, I’m afraid it won’t help.”
“At least it won’t make us look so embarrassed!” “So many experts were actually beaten back by a brat. It’s simply a great shame!”
As he spoke, he forcefully slapped the chair under him and slapped it into powder with one palm.
That brat, I will definitely make his life worse than death!” Cao Guan also spoke harshly, and his eyes seemed to be on fire.
After cursing a few times, his mood gradually calmed down.
Cao Guan leisurely sighed: “After all, it’s a mess. If those forces could unite like Brother Zhang and I, why worry about not being able to capture the Jiutian Holy Land?”
“That’s right.” Zhang Ao nodded upon hearing this. Today, when they were fighting against Yang Kai in the Broken Profound Mansion and the Battle Soul Palace, most of the people they lured and bewitched were basically watching the show, and few of them made a move to help. If those people could have made a move, perhaps today they could have broken the barrier of the nine peaks.
“Lord Mansion Master, Lord Mansion Master…” Suddenly, a hurried shout came from outside the tent. Accompanied by the shout, a martial artist from the Broken Profound Mansion rushed in quickly.
“What’s the matter with such panic?” Zhang Ao was already in a bad mood. Seeing that his subordinate was so impolite, he immediately shouted angrily.
The martial artist’s expression panicked, and he quickly saluted and said, “Lord Mansion Master, several people from small forces are preparing to leave.”
“Leave?” Zhang Ao’s eyes shrank, and a wisp of coldness in the depths of his eyes bloomed like a blade.
“Yes, they said they don’t want to be enemies with the Jiutian Holy Land anymore and want to go back.”
“Ridiculous!” Cao Guan shouted in a low voice and stood up. “No one can leave!”
At this time, if anyone leaves, it will definitely affect the morale of others. At that time, only more and more people will be attracted to leave.
“It seems that we should go and have a good talk with those who want to leave.” Zhang Ao murmured coldly. As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at Cao Guan and Wu Jie. “What do you two think?”
“Exactly what I was thinking!” Cao Guan nodded seriously.
Wu Jie also shrugged his shoulders indifferently.
The three reached a consensus and walked out together.
In another tent nearby, the people of the Du Ao League were gathered together discussing something.
The alliance leader, Yun Cheng, kept turning his head to look at his daughter, with a thoughtful expression on his face. Ever since Yun Xuan returned from today’s battle, she had seemed a bit absent-minded, with a look of being lost in thought. This made Yun Cheng even more certain that something had happened between his daughter and the new holy master of the Jiutian Holy Land.
“Alliance leader.” Ji Yan listened intently to the movement outside for a while and then said, “It seems that the people from the Xingluo Sect and the Xuehan Tower are about to leave.”
Yun Cheng nodded. “When I came back, I heard the leaders of those two forces discussing this matter. Speaking of which, the losses of our forces under that Saintess Nan were not great. Only some ordinary disciples suffered. This time we just came here to join in the fun. We originally just wanted to get an explanation and justice from the Jiutian Holy Land, not to be enemies with them. After seeing the background of the Jiutian Holy Land today, it is reasonable for them to want to leave.”
“What the leader said is right.” Ji Yan echoed. “I heard that only a few forces suffered heavy losses under that Nan Saintess. The others are like us. It’s really intriguing about the actions of Zhang Ao and those people. They don’t seem to have suffered any losses. Could it be that they are just taking the opportunity to hit a person when he is down?”
Yun Cheng sneered. “Of course their purpose is not just this. The huge foundation of the Nine Peaks is enough to make them jealous. But I guess their main purpose is still that new Saint Lord and that only Saintess. As long as they can get these two people in their hands…”
Ji Yan’s eyes lit up and he suddenly understood. “So that’s the case. Their appetites are really not ordinary big!”
“Before today, I didn’t expect it either. But now I understand that all of us forces involved in this are just pawns of Zhang Ao and Cao Guan and them. Alas… we are still too weak. If we could have a big backer, why would our Du Ao League have to look at the eyes of Zhang Ao and Cao Guan and others.
Saying this, he looked at Yun Xuan’s side intentionally or unintentionally. After finding that his daughter was silent, Yun Cheng also smiled bitterly in his heart.
Yun Cheng still cared very much about whether his daughter had any relationship with that new Saint Lord or not.
“Then leader, what should we do? Should we also leave now?” Ji Yan asked.
“Leave?” Yun Cheng sneered. “Do you think you can leave casually?”
“Huh?” Ji Yan was shocked and his face changed drastically. “Could it be…”
That’s right, that’s the ‘what if’!” Yun Cheng smiled faintly, but then his brows furrowed. After some investigation, he said, ‘They’ve already come. Let’s go out and watch the good show.'”
After saying that, he stood up and walked out of the tent. The others hurriedly followed.
Outside, the martial artists of Xingluo Sect and Xuehan Tower who were about to leave were stopped by Zhang Ao, Cao Guan, and Wu Jie and others. No one knew what they had said. They only saw Zhang Ao’s gloomy face say a few words to the leaders of these two small forces, and then a sudden change occurred.
Youdaoplaceholder0 miserable cries and howls, Zhang Ao, Cao Guan and others actually directly killed all the people of the two small forces.
In less than ten breaths of time, more than a hundred people lay dead on the ground.
All the onlookers were stunned. Their eyes trembled as they looked at this tragic scene, as if they had fallen into an ice cellar and felt cold all over.
Looking around, Zhang Ao shouted loudly, ‘It’s okay if you don’t avenge your relatives and friends, but you actually still delve into Nine Heavens Holy Land and do something that makes your loved ones suffer and your enemies rejoice. These people don’t deserve to live in this world, and I, Zhang, am ashamed to be with them. The revenge of the dead, I, Zhang, will avenge them for them. Rest in peace.’
Cao Guan continued, “Everyone, please don’t be impatient. The Jiutian Holy Land is just a grasshopper after autumn and won’t be able to jump around for a few days. We will come up with a good way, and the next attack will surely be successful. Now, everyone, please disperse and have a good rest. In a few days, we will rely on everyone’s help!”
Listening to the two of them talking to themselves and getting no response, only at this moment did everyone realize that they were probably in trouble.
“Caught in a dilemma, hehe!” Yun Cheng smiled and shook his head, looking self-mocking.
Among the forces and powerhouses present who were lured and incited, there were not a few who saw the situation clearly like him, but they were afraid of the strength of Zhang Ao and Cao Guan and others and dared not speak out.
Judging from their methods of dealing with the Xingluo Sect and the Xuehan Tower, if they really went against their ideas, then the next one to fall to the ground would be themselves.
Gradually, the crowd dispersed, and someone naturally came to collect the corpses of the dead.
After returning to the tent, Yun Cheng looked around, was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise, “Where is the young lady?”
Just now Yun Xuan was still with them, but now she is actually gone.
“Xinyu is not here either. Maybe she left for something temporarily.” Ji Yan replied.
Yun Cheng couldn’t help but feel a little relieved and didn’t ask any more questions.
In a certain place in the jungle, Yun Xuan and Ruan Xinyu followed a young man with a vigilant look on their faces. They didn’t stop until they walked out of that gathering place and came to an extremely remote place. But the young man didn’t stop and was still walking outside.
“Hey, which power’s disciple are you and what’s your name?” Ruan Xinyu didn’t have much patience. After following for a while and seeing that he didn’t say anything and just led herself and Yun Xuan forward, she couldn’t help but shout delicately.
This young man’s strength was not high, so she felt safe and didn’t worry that the other party would do anything to her and Yun Xuan.
“Two girls, I’m Liu Gui, a disciple of the Battle Soul Hall.” The young man quickly responded, and his attitude was not bad.
“From the Battle Soul Hall?” Ruan Xinyu’s beautiful eyebrows furrowed. “What did you call us out for? What is the big thing you just mentioned?”
“Hehe, you’ll know when you follow. Please rest assured, I’m not a bad person.” Liu Gui chuckled.
Ruan Xinyu snorted coldly: “When you say that, I have a feeling that there is something fishy going on. Since there is a big thing, why didn’t you report it to your hall master instead of sneaking us out. Tell the truth, what are your plans?”
“I don’t have any plans.” Liu Gui wanted to cry but had no tears. “I was also entrusted by someone. That person asked me to bring you… No, bring this girl over. You insisted on following by yourself.”
“Youdaoplaceholder0 by someone?” Yun Xuan’s heart trembled upon hearing this, and she inexplicably gave birth to a sense of anticipation, and asked eagerly “Who entrusted you to do this?”
Liu Gui hemmed and hawed for a while, and then said helplessly, “Miss, don’t ask anymore. I also have my own difficulties and really can’t say. But don’t worry, we’re almost there.”
Yun Xuan quickly cast her gaze into the distance and released her spiritual sense, but she couldn’t see or sense anything.
“Yun Xuan, I think this kid is a bit suspicious. Maybe there is some trap waiting for us ahead. I think we should go back.” Ruan Xinyu said softly beside Yun Xuan.
Yun Xuan pursed her lips and smiled: “It’s not as exaggerated as you said. He is a disciple of the Battle Soul Palace. There is no reason for him to do this.”
“Then why did he bring you over? Clearly, there is some ulterior motive. Maybe he took a fancy to your beauty!”
“Don’t scare me…” Yun Xuan quickly tightened her clothes.
“If the two of you really don’t feel at ease, why not control me first? If there is really any danger, my life and death will be at your disposal.” Liu Gui heard their whispers and immediately understood that they still didn’t trust him, so he immediately proposed on his own initiative.
“That’s a good idea. Then I won’t be too kind!” Ruan Xinyu immediately took action and subdued Liu Gui in a few moves, sealing off his true essence.
Liu Gui had a nonchalant expression and was extremely calm, continuing to lead the way ahead.
Seeing his appearance, Yun Xuan and Ruan Xinyu felt a lot more at ease.
After walking for more than ten miles and arriving at a small lake nearby, Liu Gui let out a breath and pointed ahead, saying, “Here we are. That person is waiting for you over there.”
Looking in the direction he pointed, Ruan Xinyu couldn’t help but cover her mouth and let out a shrill cry. Yun Xuan also had a look of disbelief, and her beautiful eyes shone with a different kind of spirit, staring blankly ahead.
