Now, Chen Yu and the others had taken over the Fire Lion Sect, where they were second only to one and above tens of thousands, supported by countless people, living a very relaxed and leisurely life.
With the entire upper echelon of the Fire Lion Sect fallen, only one Early Guiyuan Realm elder remained. If not for the three sitting in the Guiyuan Realm, it was feared that so of the smaller forces nearby would make a move against the Fire Lion Sect, which had little resistance left.
Therefore, the Fire Lion Sect ought not to treat Chen Yu and his two companions with the slightest neglect.
"Brother Jiang, how long before we can apply to be called back from the campaign?"
Chen Yu was carrying out a mission for the first ti and was not clear on the details, especially since it was a campaign.
"One year," Jiang Boxiong said.
This was also the sad reality of campaign missions, one could only return to the Holy Land after a year.
If one was in a Holy Land outpost, they would have to fight for it for a year, with a very high possibility of death.
"Why don’t we just stay here for a year and, with the power of the Fire Lion Sect, plunder resources!" Chen Yu voiced his idea.
Holy Land outposts campaigned and occupied for resources, and now that they had taken over the Fire Lion Sect, they too could attack so smaller forces to plunder resources.
"That’s indeed not a bad idea," Jiang Boxiong nodded in approval.
However, inside he was laughing slyly, "A year? Do you think you can still be alive after a year? Hahaha. But this thod is good. When the ti cos, Qian Guang and I will do just that. Thank you for the suggestion, Chen Yu."
A day went by.
Inside a room, Jiang Boxiong and another Copper Badge Holy Guard had a slightly grim look in their eyes.
"It’s been a day, why hasn’t Brother Qian arrived yet?" the Copper Badge Holy Guard asked.
They were already quite impatient and were also afraid of any unforeseen changes that might occur.
Chen Yu was very strong and was capable of bursting forth with the speed of the Late Guiyuan Realm.
"Brother Qian has gone deep into the western regions; it must take so ti to hurry over here," Jiang Boxiong said softly.
"Brother Jiang, do you think Chen Yu has already let his guard down by now?" the Copper Badge Holy Guard inquired.
Jiang Boxiong’s eyes flashed with a barely perceptible sharpness; he knew what his teammate was getting at.
"Why not we make a move first and kill him."
"I think Chen Yu has completely let down his guard. If we kill him, Qian Guang and the other person won’t have contributed much. If Qian Guang desires the Blood Crystal Fla afterward, he will need to provide so compensation."
"And we will be entitled to a larger share of the spoils of war. As for that mid-grade Spiritual Artifact, if Brother Jiang takes a liking to it, just claim it directly; they will have no objections."
"Besides, once Chen Yu dies, the resources of the Fire Lion Sect will be split between us two, a share that is indeed astonishing!" the Copper Badge Holy Guard said, growing excited as he spoke.
"Forget the mid-grade Spiritual Artifact, I want the Fire Qilin. You just need to back up at that ti," Jiang Boxiong said seriously.
"No problem," the Copper Badge Holy Guard smiled slyly, as Jiang Boxiong’s words clearly agreed with his suggestion.
Actually, among the four of them, only he carried a copper emblem, and when it ca ti to divide the spoils, his share would be the least.
However, if he and Jiang Boxiong killed Chen Yu, it would be akin to them having contributed the most, thereby receiving a larger share of the spoils.
"Let’s go, let’s talk to Chen Yu about so matters," the Copper Badge Holy Guard revealed a sinister and dark smile.
"No, it’s better if I go alone; wait outside for ," Jiang Boxiong replied earnestly.
"Brother Jiang is quite thorough in his considerations; it would inevitably raise his suspicions if you and I go this late," the Copper Badge Holy Guard said with a fawning smile.
...
"Lord Chen, I have already thoroughly investigated the matter you assigned to ," an Early Guiyuan Realm mber of the Fire Lion Sect said, bowing low.
Chen Yu’s eyebrows moved slightly as he ordered, "Speak."
"That person has already died at the edge of the Fire Mist Forest," the Early Guiyuan Realm elder reported.
"Dead?" Chen Yu was sowhat surprised.
He had thought that if Elder He had died, Feng Tianhao would surely be alive; but now, both were dead.
"Moreover, nearby, we also found the body of Elder He," the Guiyuan Realm continue hesitantly.
Originally, he did not intend to elaborate, as Chen Yu had not asked him to look into Elder He’s matter, but he felt that what Chen Yu wanted to know might be related to Elder He as well.
"This..." Chen Yu’s gaze turned deep, and after pondering for a mont, his eyes suddenly opened wide, shining brightly.
The deaths of Feng Tianhao and Elder He were not far from each other, aning a third party had killed them.
Even if a Late Guiyuan Realm unexpectedly erged, it was not likely they could kill them both. So unless this sudden arrival was soone special...
Just at this mont, Jiang Boxiong’s voice ca from outside, "Brother Chen, I apologize for disturbing you so late at night, but I suddenly rembered sothing and needed to discuss it with you."
"Please co in," Chen Yu said, frowning slightly but then relaxing, speaking indifferently.
"You may leave," Chen Yu instructed.
"Lords, I shall take my leave then," the Early Guiyuan Realm elder bowed and then exited.
"What is it?" Chen Yu asked.
"It’s like this, the matter you spoke to about during the day, I discussed it with my companion and Brother Yang also agrees with your view. I was just wondering if you have any detailed plans," Jiang Boxiong said as he approached Chen Yu with an enthusiastic deanor.
The "Brother Yang" he ntioned was the Copper Badge Holy Guard with him.
"No, there’s plenty of ti. We’ll talk about it later," Chen Yu said.
"I discussed it with Brother Yang and we’ve co up with a general plan. Would you like to hear it?"
Jiang Boxiong approached Chen Yu, speaking in a very soft voice with a hint of smile.
Without warning, Jiang Boxiong drew his Spiritual Artifact sword, and his True Yuan surged wildly as he thrust the sword toward Chen Yu’s heart!
Boom!
Inside the house, an explosion erupted.
As the dust settled, Chen Yu and Jiang Boxiong stood opposed to each other, with Jiang’s sword aid at Chen Yu’s heart, but it was firmly clamped down by Chen Yu’s dark iron giant claw.
"Do you want to kill ?"
Chen Yu asked coldly.
Although he was puzzled as to why Jiang Boxiong wanted to kill Feng Tianhao, he could explain it as an act of murder for treasure, after all, Jiang Boxiong and Feng Tianhao were not at all acquainted.
But why did Jiang Boxiong want to kill him? Was it also for murder and robbery?
Could it be that this person was accustod to betraying and killing his teammates on missions?
"You were actually on guard!"
Jiang Boxiong asked, inwardly shocked.
In such a situation, he, at the peak of Middle Stage Guiyuan Realm, had failed to assassinate soone in the middle stage.
There was only one explanation: Chen Yu was prepared; otherwise, Jiang would have killed Chen Yu by now.
Bang!
The door burst open, and the Copper Badge Holy Guard rushed in, "Brother Jiang, did you succeed?"
But his expression froze when he saw the situation inside the room.
Jiang Boxiong had failed to assassinate his target!
Swoosh!
The Copper Badge Holy Guard imdiately charged out, drew a long spear and, with a sinister black light emanating from it, thrust directly at Chen Yu’s head.
The two’s intentions were now revealed; there was no need to hide any longer. Killing Chen Yu directly was the best solution.
Zoom!
Chen Yu swiftly retreated on the tip of his toes, dodging the strike from the Copper Badge Holy Guard and Jiang Boxiong’s fierce thrust while simultaneously patting his pet bag, releasing the Red Fla King.
"Eh? What’s the matter? Is there a dispute over the spoils?"
The Red Fla King grinned and asked.
"This beast is mine to deal with, Brother Jiang, be quick to slay this boy."
The Copper Badge Holy Guard shouted.
The suggestion was his idea, and should it fail, he would be severely punished and also incur the wrath of Qian Guang.
Now, only by killing Chen Yu, would he not only be off the hook but also gain rich spoils of war.
"Heh heh, little boy, you underestimate ."
The Red Fla King snorted coldly.
Without further conversation, Jiang Boxiong sprang into action, slashing with his sword.
Boom!
The palace was split in two, and Chen Yu and Jiang Boxiong soared into the sky above the Fire Lion Sect.
Chen Yu held the Demon Flood Dragon Sword in his right hand, while his left hand was surrounded by a layer of glaze-like Blood Crystal Fla, watching Jiang Boxiong with a cold gaze.
"Blue Water Light Sword!"
Jiang Boxiong moved his treasured sword continuously, unleashing piece after piece of pale blue sword marks that cut through the air in quick succession.
Boom!
Chen Yu executed moves from the Devil Wind Sword Technique, swinging repeatedly, unleashing wave after wave of black, ferocious Sword Qi.
But Jiang Boxiong lived up to his reputation as a Silver Emblem Holy Guard, a powerhouse of the Late Guiyuan Realm, his swordsmanship refined to perfection.
Boom boom boom!
As the two clashed, Chen Yu found himself at a disadvantage.
If this continued, Chen Yu would have to cease his sword moves, or he would suffer injuries from Jiang Boxiong.
Snap!
Chen Yu made a decisive expression and fiercely slapped the Demon Flood Dragon Sword.
Instantly, the Blood Fla spread over the sinister black sword, and Chen Yu slashed out once more, with his Sword Qi infused with so Blood Fla, greatly increasing its power.
Although the Demon Flood Dragon Sword was a weapon of demonic energy and infused with the Fla Demon Stone, giving it explosive properties, it could rge with the power of the Fire Dao relatively easily.
Had it been the Nine Bone Demon Spirit Sword, a mighty and domineering instrunt of demonic energy, such a feat would have been challenging to achieve.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Chen Yu reversed the disadvantage, even gaining the upper hand.
The explosive properties combined with the Blood Crystal Fla produced extraordinary power.
"Chen Yu, even with the Blood Crystal Fla, you can’t possibly defeat a Silver Emblem Holy Guard!"
Jiang Boxiong humd lowly, emphasizing his status to ntally pressure Chen Yu.
But Chen Yu was unfazed.
Lately, he had expended five jins of Primordial Spirit Fla Crystal to enhance the quality of the Blood Crystal Fla, greatly increasing the power of the Spirit Fla.
The Demon Flood Dragon Sword paired with the Blood Crystal Fla made Chen Yu’s attacks comparable to the Late Guiyuan Realm.
Moreover, with the characteristics of the Devil Wind Sword Technique, after accumulating a period of sword montum, Chen Yu surpassed Jiang Boxiong.
"Angry Sea Sword."
Jiang Boxiong suddenly halted, dodging Chen Yu’s attack.
His Sword Intent soared to the heavens, but unlike before, instead of the calm and profound depth of a lake, the Sword Intent he now released was wild, like the surging waves of an angry sea.
Jiang Boxiong raised his Spiritual Artifact high, its blue Sword Qi light trembling violently and intensifying.
In a mont, Jiang Boxiong suddenly delivered a slash.
Boom!
This slash was exceedingly fierce, like an enraged sea’s wave relentlessly crashing forward.
"What a powerful slash."
Chen Yu couldn’t help but exclaim.
His own sword moves or Demon Rune Battle Techniques were hard-pressed to match it.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Chen Yu’s heart suddenly burst forth, his speed and strength markedly increasing.
Sky Flying Sword Slash!
Chen Yu took to the air, slashing down forcefully, the sword montum around him sharply depleted.
A startling black light of Sword Qi plumted from the sky, like a supre evil demon swooping down, colliding with Jiang Boxiong’s sword moves.
