Chapter 528: Chapter 514: Gui Lang Becos a Traitor
Xiao Bai shouted, “Quickly bring back the Alliance Leader’s body.”
Third Demon started to search the entire city for the traces of the New City Sect disciples, of course without any gain.
Gui Lang, however, felt a chill down his spine, not expecting Zun Yu to also stand with them.
A subordinate asked, “Boss, why didn’t you point out that all this was Xiao Bai’s doing?”
“Do you have any evidence?” Gui Lang countered.
“We can slowly investigate.”
“Investigate? Didn’t you see, Zun Yu has already joined forces with Xiao Bai, they are in cahoots. And you still want to investigate, do you not understand the danger?” Gui Lang quickly headed to his mansion.
“They’ve joined forces?”
“They’ve ford an alliance, we should hurry and leave!” Gui Lang said.
“Hurry and leave?”
“Do you still want to stay? Now the only ones who know the truth are us. Do you think Xiao Bai and his group will spare us?”
The disciple nodded.
“If we stay, we won’t even know how we died. They’ve gained the upper hand, we must hurry, tonight, if we don’t escape, we won’t live till tomorrow morning.” Gui Lang felt an increasing sense of impending doom.
“Where do we go?”
“Anywhere is better than staying in Sky Domain City, no one would want us to stay in Sky Domain City.” Gui Lang continued, “That damned Gua Zhengnie, he’s such a fool, killed by a girl. What a joke.”
“That Chun’er is on their side?”
“Of course she is. She’s more of a liability than an asset. If not for her, Gua Zhengnie would have co back earlier. How could there be such a coincidence?” Gui Lang shook his head and said, “No matter what, tonight, we must escape. Tomorrow there will be no way out.”
“Isn’t that a bit too serious?”
“Not serious? Right now, we are a thorn in their side. The best way to keep others out of the loop is to kill us.” Gui Lang lanted Gua Zhengnie’s incompetence. If he had hurried back earlier, none of this would have happened.
The subordinate quickly understood.
“Anyway, we can’t stay in Sky Domain City. If you want to live, we must escape tonight.”
“Understood.”
Gui Lang, along with his primary followers, took advantage of the night and the city’s chaos and straight up fled Sky Domain City.
The day broke.
They had searched the city for the whole night.
At this mont, Xiao Bai and his group had just found out that Gui Lang had escaped from Sky Domain City.
Xiao Han said, “It seems this Gui Lang isn’t stupid.”
Xiao Bai glanced at Zun Yu. They had not found any New City Sect mbers throughout the night. Sohow Gua Zhengnie had died, and if they didn’t find a scapegoat, they couldn’t justify it. He hurriedly said, “Issue a warrant for his arrest, saying Gui Lang is the mole, the people from New City Sect were brought in by him. After murdering Gua Zhengnie last night, he escaped Sky Domain City under the cover of darkness. Make up so evidence.”
Hearing this, Xiao Han said, “That’s a good plan. It can also give a reasonable explanation to Third Demon’s people.”
Zun Yu seed a bit slow to react.
Xiao Bai asked, “Brother, do you think this can work?”
Zun Yu nodded, saying, “It can.”
Soon, a warrant for Gui Lang’s arrest was issued in Sky Domain City, declaring him a traitor.
Xiao Bai said, “Brother, we should talk with Yuan nhai and completely integrate Third Demon with them. It’s unclear when the New City Sect will take advantage of the situation to attack Sky Domain City. Currently, we are sowhat in chaos, and they are most likely to take advantage of this.”
“Alright, you take charge of this matter.”
“Brother, you still have to et Yuan nhai.”
“Hmm, you handle the arrangents.”
“Okay, I’ll arrange it properly.”
…
Gui Lang, who had escaped Sky Domain City, was shocked. How did he beco a traitor, moreover a subordinate of New City Sect. He found it hard to express his grievances. Cursing, he said, “Damned Xiao Bai, I won’t share the sa sky with him.”
“Boss, they have issued a warrant for our arrest, what should we do?” a subordinate asked.
“What can we do, we can’t just wait to die!”
“Then where should we go?”
“To Ghost City.”
“Excellent, they still can’t control Ghost City.”
“I will settle this score with them properly. They think they can do it covertly without anyone noticing, but they haven’t asked
yet.” Gui Lang was increasingly irritated. The present-day traitors and conspirators have ironically beco luminaries.
“I heard that Yang Jing and Jue Ming are now in panic, constantly recruiting people. It seems they want to take control of Ghost City. Should we join them?” one of his followers asked.
After so thought, Gui Lang decided that it would be impossible to confront Xiao Bai with their current strength. All they could do was find a stronger backing and save their lives first. He nodded and said, “Okay, contact them right away. I want to speak with them.”
His capable assistant nodded in agreent.
Gui Lang added: “Among these people, there’s a high chance that so could be tempted to kill
to curry favor with Xiao Bai and the rest.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll act carefully.”
“If you have any doubts, kill them. Don’t be indecisive.”
“Understood.”
“Damn Xiao Bai, there’s no way I can coexist with him.” Gui Lang fled towards the direction of Ghost City with around a hundred people.
On this day, Xiao Bai played host and invited Yuan nhai and Zun Yu over. At this ti, Yuan nhai had not made a public appearance with Third Demon.
Xiao Bai said, “Now that Sky Domain City belongs to us, we should discuss how the third demon and the Sky Domain Sect will integrate, and how we choose the new Alliance Leader.”
Yuan nhai, aware of Zun Yu’s rits in killing Gua Zhengnie, suggested, “Let the Sky Domain Sect rge with Third Demon and have Zun Yu as the Alliance Leader.”
But Zun Yu responded, “No, you should be the Alliance Leader. I am aware of my own limitations, you’re more appropriate as the forr dominator of Sky Domain City.”
Xiao Bai agreed, stating, “Exactly, I also think that Brother Yuan is better suited to be an Alliance Leader. I’m content being the third in command.”
Yuan nhai responded, “How can this be? I just joined Third Demon. It wouldn’t be appropriate for
to beco the Alliance Leader right away. This can’t be justified.”
Xiao Bai replied, “Brother Yuan, stop declining. The current Alliance Leader isn’t just for enjoynt. You will be responsible for dealing with the New City Sect.”
Yuan nhai laughed and suggested, “I can assist.”
Zun Yu smiled slightly, “Let’s just follow what Xiao Bai and I agreed upon, Brother Yuan. You will be the Alliance Leader. I can be second or third in command.” At this point, Zun Yu had accepted the reality; though he had a small affinity for Gua Zhengnie, it was all in the past.
“No, I should be number three. You can be number two.” Xiao Bai stated.
Yuan nhai had no other choice but to agree. “Okay, I am temporarily the Alliance Leader until soone better and wiser takes the lead.”
“There’s no need for a temporary appointnt. You are the Alliance Leader. Tomorrow, during the grand assembly, I and number two will support you vehently. There won’t be any oppositions.” Xiao Bai was thrilled.
“Alright then, from now on, Sky Domain City will belong to the three of us. Let’s work together to maintain Sky Domain City and figure out a way to defeat the New City Sect.” Yuan nhai declared.
The following day.
Xiao Bai and Zun Yu presided over the eting, accompanied by Yuan nhai, Ming Bei, and Luo Hai.
Xiao Bai initiated: “The Alliance Leader has died. This is deeply upsetting. However, we can’t indulge in grief because we still face the New City Sect, who can attack us at any mont. We should put aside our grief and unite to fight against the New City Sect.”
The attendees stayed silent.
Xiao Bai continued, “We’ve determined that Gui Lang is the betrayer who used his power to secretly bring in mbers of the New City Sect, assassinated the Alliance Leader, and then, together with people from the New City Sect, stealthily escaped overnight.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiu concurred indignantly, “I did say that this man was up to no good. The previous ti when he brought the New City Sect into Sky Domain City and surrounded the Alliance Leader’s residence, I pointed out that there was sothing wrong with him. But nobody believed . Now, they should believe . Everything was planned by them.”
Xiao Bai interjected, “They thought that by killing our Alliance Leader, we would fall apart and collapse. I think they’re daydreaming.”
“Exactly, they must think that way. Gui Lang, the backstabber, is the reason our Alliance Leader died. He should be reduced to ashes.” Chen Jiu declared.
“He is a wicked man indeed, our enemy. We won’t let him go. But right now, our key concern isn’t capturing Gui Lang. We have more important matters awaiting us.” Xiao Bai looked towards Yuan nhai and declared, “Chief Yuan, everyone present should be aware of that.”
The attendees stayed silent, seemingly still imrsed in Gua Zhengnie’s death.
Xiao Bai continued, “After our last battle, we lost a large number of people. New City Sect has gained an upper hand. Tianle City has also been acquired by the New City Sect. Our situation is extrely unfavorable. To resist the increasingly powerful New City Sect, Zun Yu and I have agreed to let the people of Sky Domain Sect, including Yuan nhai, to join Third Demon.”
The attendees started to whisper among themselves.
Zun Yu stated, “Indeed, I agreed. We should now gather and connect with all possible forces to collectively resist the New City Sect. The addition of Sky Domain Sect to our cause will undoubtedly strengthen us.”
Xiao Bai added, “Chief Yuan agrees to let go of past grievances and unite with us against the New City Sect. This is a great advantage for us. The most important thing right now is to secure Sky Domain City. As we’ve lost Tianle City, all we have left is Sky Domain City. We must secure it.”
Seeing both Zun Yu and Xiao Bai concurring, the rest had nothing more to say.
Xiao Bai continued, “Chief Yuan was the original regent of Sky Domain City, which was established through his hard work. This is advantageous for us.”
Soone in the crowd suggested, “We should select a new Alliance Leader to oversee everything.”
Xiao Bai acknowledged, “Indeed, that’s why we are here today to discuss this very matter. We need to unify our orders under a single Alliance Leader; otherwise, we’ll beco disorganized, which isn’t good for us.”
Murmurs filled the room.
“The Alliance Leader just passed away, and we haven’t avenged his death yet. Selecting a new Alliance Leader seems hasty, but it’s due to the urgent situation we are facing.” Xiao Bai continued, “Therefore, we must select a new Alliance Leader as soon as possible. Both Zun Yu and I believe Brother Yuan is the most suitable candidate.”
Of course, Zun Yu instantly nodded in agreent.
