Gao Zhijian laughed in the air and swirled around like a dragon.
More and more lotuses appeared in the air as he laughed.
“Once the fighting starts, bring Li Sui away and wait for at Cowheart Village.” Li Huowang took out his bag of torture tools to open up his abdon.
However, Bai Lingmiao's cold hand grabbed his hand.
“Senior Li, you don't have to do that. I can help you now.”
“White Lotus Sect, do you really think that you can stop ?”
Staring at the white lotus on her forehead and the lotuses around them, Li Huowang realized that many things had happened to Bai Lingmiao while she was missing.
Even though he wanted to know more, he knew that now wasn't the ti for questions.
“Do they listen to you?” Li Huowang asked Bai Lingmiao.
“Yes, they do.”
“Great. See if you can ask them to restrict Gao Zhijian for a small period of ti.” Li Huowang gripped his sword tightly as he looked at Gao Zhijian.
He had done it once, so he could do it again.
The mbers of the White Lotus Sect revealed their dudous as well as their cheeks with sharp tal rods sticking out of them. Several tiny bronze gourds were hanging from their ear lobes as well.
“Ready!” Bai Lingmiao shouted.
Everyone took out a small knife with a jagged edge, and they used it to tap their forehead at the sa ti.
“The Dao cos from the heart, but the heart spreads lies! One must hold the true deity before the incense burner. May the true spirit guide us. We shall inform you today, so bring our orders to the nine heavens. May our wishes all co true.” The chanting noises pervaded the air, seemingly suppressing every other noise.
Gao Zhijian coiled the Dragon Vein around him and ignored the lotuses as he glared at the White Lotus Sect mbers with a taunting look.
“Heed my call or show yourself. The disciples pray thrice for your help. May the gods co and help us, to protect and show us the path. Guide our mouth and guide us!”
When the chanting ended, they all pointed their knives at Gao Zhijian.
Almost imdiately, a face appeared on Gao Zhijian’s face. His long body froze in mid-air as the sll of incense filled the air.
To think that the White Lotus Sect would call upon the gods to take over Gao Zhijian's body... Li Huowang truly didn't expect them to make such a move.
Just then, Peng Longteng grabbed Li Huowang and hurled him at Gao Zhijian.
Just like what he had done in the Qi Kingdom, Li Huowang thrust his sword toward Gao Zhijian's back. His goal was to sever that connection just like last ti.
It seed that his attack was going to succeed, as Gao Zhijian looked like he had no intentions of avoiding the attack.
Just as Li Huowang’s sword was about to enter Gao Zhijian’s chest, the latter smiled and taunted, “You actually want to kill ? You better think twice. Kill , and the Liang Kingdom’s Dragon Vein is done for~”
Li Huowang's sword moved away slightly, eliciting a peal of laughter from Gao Zhijian.
However, Gao Zhijian moved, allowing Li Huowang to stab him.
“Hong Zhong. We're not soldiers, so we don’t have to fight like this. We're mbers of the Sitting Oblivion Dao. We fight with our brains! We're weak, and everyone knows that we're weak, so why should I fight you head-on? Now that I’ve beco the Dragon Vein itself, you can’t even kill even if I close my eyes and let you kill . Hehehehe~ This is what it ans to fight with our brains!”
Shai Zi taunted Li Huowang. Shai Zi was right; he could fight Li Huowang freely, but the latter couldn't do the sa. He couldn't afford to hurt the Dragon Vein!
Shai Zi reached out to grab Li Huowang when several fingers flew toward them from down below.
Li Huowang looked down and saw a group of people in black robes standing on the rooftops. He could see Zu Yi among the black-robed figures.
The mbers of many different sects had co as well, and they had surrounded the palace.
Rumble!
The earth shook slightly; a large statue was running toward Gao Zhijian, and it was the Bodhisattva statue carved on the face of the mountain! It had co to life!
The large Bodhisattva lowered his body and stared at Gao Zhijian with eyes larger than a house.
However, Gao Zhijian rely laughed at the sight.
“Hehehe! Looks like the big shots are back. However, do you really think that you can trap here? You can’t fool . I’m the Sitting Oblivion Dao. Xuan Pin, you are too late~ I’ve taken what I needed.”
Gao Zhijian opened his mouth and started swallowing his own tail. His mouth widened as he gobbled up the previous emperors. He devoured them as fast as he could until the entire Dragon Vein was gone.
The world around Li Huowang beca hazy. When he ca to his senses, he noticed the illusions around him fading away. His vision swam once more, and he found himself falling to the ground with Bai Lingmiao.
There weren’t that many people; the rest were just illusions, except for the mbers of the Ao Jing Sect and the White Lotus Sect.
The Chief was wearing the sa red robes as he wore the last ti Li Huowang saw him, and he was kneeling on the ground. He was in the middle of healing the Imperial Preceptor's injuries.
The Chief's six hands snatched the Imperial Preceptor’s gaping chest wound, leaving behind nothing but a patch of gray.
“Shai Zi attacked while I was doing the prayers! If I hadn't been prepared, I would’ve died for real!” Huangfu Tiangang gnashed his teeth as blood dripped down the corner of his mouth.
“Stop talking for now.” The Chief took a piece of color from a corpse and placed it on the monochro wound of the Imperial Preceptor.
Li Huowang looked away from the Chief and realized that Gao Zhijian and the Dragon Vein had vanished!
Where did Shai Zi go? What is he going to do with the Dragon Vein?
The cogs in Li Huowang's mind were just about to turn and think about it when Huangfu Tiangang grabbed his sword and swung it at Li Huowang.
Li Huowang raised his sword to defend himself when his vision swam. The next mont, he found himself and the Imperial Preceptor sitting on a table while facing each other.
“Tiangang, do you really think that this is the ti to start an internal strife?” the Chief said, sitting down before the table.
“He brought that man here! He’s connected to everything that has happened so far! He’s working with that Shai Zi! I have to get rid of him now, or we'll be in even more trouble next ti!” Huangfu Tiangang exclaid, slamming his hand on the table.
