Reverse the Elents, Switch Yin and Yang, Exchange Soil and Gold! The man with a spear had an aggressive expression as he made hand seals while shouting, before slamming his left palm against the ground.
The mud and rocks around the man instantly beca iron and steel.
It was followed by a loud rumble as a tal bubble rose from the ground. The man with a spear forced it back into the ground again and shouted, Third Brother, hurry up!
Opposing Forces! The youngest of the three was bleeding from the mouth, but after his eldest brother hurried him, he used all the strength he had to hang onto the powerful blast of air between his palms, then thrust it out towards the area that had turned into nothing but steel and iron.
Haha! Im still alive!
The two brothers attack had avoided their second brothers dead body, sothing they probably did subconsciously. This weakness enabled Li Daoren to dodge the attack.
Li Daoren suddenly leaped out from beneath the ground even as he was severely injured, blasting the second brothers body to pieces and cackling maniacally in the midst of the flesh and blood raining on himself.
Fall of the Immortal! Gu Suihan leaped up at this mont and Red Dust flew out of its scabbard, sending out a gleam three inches wide. It cut through the air like a swallow and shone a gorgeous and bright red beam into everyones eyes.
Li Daoren went into a daze and felt like he was now in the midst of a battle between immortals and demons. The pressure he felt around him seed to make the air stand still and he simply couldnt move. The strange long saber that looked like it could cut through the heavens vanished like an illusion. Before he could snap out of his daze, everything went black and he didnt feel anything anymore.
Breaking the Red Dust! Gu Suihan had taken Li Daoren out with one move, so he quickly moved on to his next target. He stepped on the air steadily and swiftly, leaving behind a blurry trail as he swung his saber the other way towards the two brothers who were still in a daze.
A strange yet familiar voice instantly filled the two brothers ears.
Xinger, hurry up and run! Youre the eldest brother, so you must protect your two younger brothers.
Eldest Brother, why dont we try and beco disciples of a sect? Wouldnt that be better for our cultivation?
Eldest Brother, you can have the items that we got earlier. Reach Foundation Establishnt stage quickly so that you can protect us!
Second Brother! Father! Mother! The man with a spear had no idea that a blade was coming down on him as a genuine and innocent smile spread across his lips.
Gu Suihan had no expression on his face as he sliced through both brothers necks, releasing two columns of blood spurting into the air.
He grabbed the storage bags of all four n, put the saber back in its scabbard, and exhaled deeply.
After that, he carefully picked that Three-petaled Mara Flower wrapped it neatly, and kept it away properly. He then threw out several Blazing Flas Talismans to burn up all the bodies emotionlessly and left the place without turning back.
This ant nothing to Gu Suihan. He didnt mind being a fisherman from ti to ti. A Three-petaled Mara Flower was valued at 300 Spiritual Stones, but the sect did not sell this particular item, so there was a price but no stock to buy.
Hoo Gu Suihan ca to a secluded area and slowly cald his spiritual energy down, then got up when he was full of energy again.
There isnt a lot of good stuff around here. Its nothing like the secret realms of books, thought Gu Suihan as he continued to wander about aimlessly.
Wait a minute! Gu Suihan suddenly stopped and narrowed his eyes to reduce the gleam in them. He quietly hid in the shadows and slowed down his breathing so much that he resembled a dead person.
A few monts later, he heard the sound of footsteps stepping on grass and twigs, followed by a light and lodious voice, Oh? How did you get in here, Brother Li? Im so surprised.
Ha! Youre surprised? Im afraid you expected this, a frosty male voice responded.
Teehee! The female voice giggled rrily. I wonder where your good friend, Gu Suihan, is right now. I need to talk to him about sothing.
Gu Suihan had a surprised look on his face even as he remained in the shadows. Soone actually knew that he was going to be here and did not believe that he was still in seclusion within the sect.
Isnt Brother Gu in seclusion back in his own residence? Youve seen him co out? Why do you need to talk to him, anyway? asked the man. As their voices beca clearer, so did their faces. It was Li Rong and the leader of the Way Seekers Alliance, Mo Yuluo.
Gu Suihan quietly remained standing where he was, as still as a rock and as ominously as an asura. He remained unmoved even as he listened in on this conversation about himself.
Hmm! Mo Yuluo didnt answer Li Rongs question and changed the topic, What brings you here, Brother Li? Anything I could possibly help you with?
Miss Mo, if I said Im here to take revenge on the Way Seekers Alliance, what would you do? Li Rong chuckled. Youre not even a direct disciple and youre using such vicious thods already. Thats very unsettling to .
Also, dont you think the stance youve taken is a little too inflexible? Li Rongs voice slowly grew more emotionless and the cheeky smile he had was gone.
Mo Yuluo sighed a little sadly and twiddled with her hair. Im sure youve noticed the recent happenings in the world of cultivation.
Li Rong didnt react and continued staring calmly at her pretty little face as he smiled faintly. Thats none of our business. You know thats sothing that only those old farts at Nascent Change can lead. Even those at Origin Core can only be used as pawns.
Its better to send charcoal in the snow than to add flowers to cotton(a). The intricate little bell on the bracelet around Mo Yuluos fair wrist tinkled softly. She turned away and broke eye contact with Li Rong. I know that those who have taken a neutral stand like yourself hopes that the sect will remain balanced and harmonious. But the Seven Kill Sect is a huge ship. Should it et the oncoming waves head-on or just bob along? Have you ever thought about that?
Without waiting for Li Rong to respond, she went on, The Sect Leader wants this boar to have only one voice and one line of command. He doesnt care if youre a direct, internal or external disciple. He wants a unified sect, but not a balanced one.
But you were trying to get rid of us. Li Rongs expression was as frosty as his voice.
Mo Yuluo looked amused as she said, You know very well that we werent bent on killing you. If that were so, you wouldnt have made it back even if you had a jiangshi made from iron.
You managed to convince Fang Suyu as well? asked Li Rong after a brief mont of silence, avoiding any response to Mo Yuluos last remark.
He didnt have a choice. An outsider will always be an outsider, said Mo Yuluo thoughtfully as she nodded slightly.
Hoho, Li Rong chuckled as well. He seed to agree with her on this.
Within the sect, the Nobles Clan has the most number of elders and deacons. They are many in number and are Origin Core cultivators, but they are not united in spirit and they all have their own plans. Your father is a powerful figure among those who are neutral, but he cant order the people in this group around. The Four Directions Court, on the other hand, have the Peak Leaders of Peaks Three, Five, Six and Seven. They believe that cultivating peacefully is the way to go. But theyve forgotten that the world of cultivators has never been a peaceful place to begin with.
And let share another piece of information with you. Mo Yuluo turned to look at the silent Li Rong again. The Vast Sky Sect, the Falling Star Sect, the Wonderful Sound Sect and the Youthful Clarity Sect have ford an alliance.
What? Li Rongs expression finally turned to one of shock. Thats impossible! Hasnt the Falling Star Sect been a neutral party all this ti? What could have been enough to make them decide against their previous objections to forming any sort of alliance?
Mo Yuluos expression was grim as she gritted her teeth and spat, The Ethereal Court.
Tsk! Li Rongs expression was nasty. All cultivators are ruthless after all. The Falling Star Sectthe Ethereal Courtgreat. Just great.
I need your help. Li Rong suddenly stared straight at Mo Yuluo.
What sort of help? Mo Yuluos expression relaxed a little. The chances of getting Xiexin Zhenren, the Peak Leader of Peak Four, seed a lot higher now.
Kill Gu Suihan, said Li Rong, emphasizing every syllable. Initially, he was ant to be a pawn to curb or ss up the three factions. But now that the Ethereal Court is involved, then this pawn isnt important anymore. Besides, he has sothing that the old fart in the palace needs. If necessary, we can use that to negotiate and increase our strength.
Are you referring to what he got out of robbing the tax ships before entering the sect? asked Mo Yuluo very solemnly.
Thats right. Li Rong nodded. My father refused to give any details, but whatever Gu Suihan is holding onto, its definitely sothing extrely valuable. And as far as I know, there are so secrets behind Gu Suihan, but no matter how hard I try to investigate, I cant seem to find any answers.
Oh? Mo Yuluo was really surprised this ti.
He knowsa lot of things, said Li Rong vaguely.
Ive co this ti because I intend to wipe out Feng Ran and his companions, Mo Yuluo finally stated her intentions clearly.
Ive co for Gu Suihans Spiritual Root and whatever hes holding onto, Li Rong ca clean as well.
His Spiritual Root? Mo Yuluo was puzzled.
Hes got an Eight Geng Gold Spiritual Root, which is complentary to my Ren Water Spiritual Root. I can use that to create my personal jiangshi.
So, why didnt you take it from him before he entered the sect?
Thats because I didnt know that the Ethereal Court was going to be involved. I was hoping that he could accumulate more Geng Gold Murderous Qi so that his Spiritual Root would be more powerful when I use it.
I see, responded Mo Yuluo.
Having a common enemy imdiately helped both sides to co to a truce. As for Gu Suihanif he died, he died. Neither cared about him.
