Chapter 692: Chapter 689: With a Purpose!_1
“The Demon Subduing Sect and Wood Dragon City are nothing but despicable and deceitful villains.”
“These Spiritual Veins were clearly ours from the beginning, but they forcefully imposed their will on us and took two-thirds of them through nefarious ans, leaving only one-third for our Green Lotus Sect!” The female disciples gritted their teeth in hatred when recalling this.
Yang Chen listened, blinked, and beca pensive.
As an outsider, he could consider the situation without personal emotions, so he asked directly: “What is the strength of Wood Dragon City and the Demon Subduing Sect?”
“Their strength is actually quite similar to our Green Lotus Sect. However, since they have joined forces, their new generation of geniuses has clearly improved. Furthermore, the spiritual energy in their western region is abundant, incomparable to our eastern region.” The female disciples looked distressed.
“The most critical issue is that we Green Lotus Sect are powerless when they join forces.”
Yang Chen nodded, realizing this must be why the Green Lotus Sect had to yield on the matter of the Spiritual Veins.
Even though they knew that the Boundary Monunt’s situation was deliberately caused by Wood Dragon City and the Demon Subduing Sect, there was nothing they could do. They were weaker in strength because the two sects were colluding against them.
He wondered about the current situation.
Ti passed, and soon they arrived at where the Spiritual Veins were.
This was indeed the frontier. When Yang Chen soared into the air, he could clearly see a stele about three Zhang high not far away, inscribed with the characters “East-West Boundary Monunt,” thus dividing the Thirty-six Eastern Counties from the Western Forty-two Regions.
Next to the Boundary Monunt, there was a Spiritual Vein winding like a dragon’s spine. This Spiritual Vein was vast, with a length of several thousand Zhang.
Although others didn’t know, Yang Chen was very aware that several thousand Zhang was not a small number.
To put it in perspective, the Spiritual Vein of the Yuanshan Sect was rely dozens of Zhang, and the one in Beishan Main City was only a few hundred Zhang.
A few hundred Zhang of Spiritual Vein could be considered a large one, and a few thousand Zhang was simply a super Spiritual Vein.
No wonder Wood Dragon City and the Demon Subduing Sect tried every ans to take a share; these Spiritual Veins were too extensive, and even if they were divided among the three forces, they could still provide plentiful resources.
At this mont, Li Ruoxiang brought her people over, and an Elder imdiately went up to greet her: “Sect Leader!”
“Sect Leader, you’ve arrived.”
The Elders stationed in this area anxiously spoke.
Li Ruoxiang led her disciples to this place, nodded, and then asked, “What’s the situation now?”
“Wood Dragon City and the Demon Subduing Sect insist that our disciples crossed the line into their Spiritual Vein Area, and refuse to release them. They are unwilling to listen to anything we say. If we try to use force, the two sects have long reached a consensus, and we dare not act rashly.”
“Sect Leader, you must find a way. Over forty disciples are in their hands.” The Elders beca agitated.
Li Ruoxiang landed with her hands behind her back, walking at the forefront and listening to the Elders narrating the ins and outs of the situation.
Yang Chen followed her into the Spiritual Vein area and found nurous Spirit Stones.
Most of them were Ordinary Spirit Stones, along with a few dazzling Supre Grade Spirit Stones.
Of course, the most important thing now was not these Stones. Yang Chen and Li Ruoxiang walked through several intersections of Spiritual Veins and finally arrived at an empty area.
Upon arriving, they saw a large gathering of people.
There were at least a hundred people of various ages, along with many high-level mbers and young disciples, like the Green Lotus Sect. So exuded powerful Martial Arts Cultivation which was almost at the level of the Earth Martial Realm, while the weaker ones were at least at the first or second level of the Origin Martial Realm.
Yang Chen glanced around and identified the two factions among the hundreds of people, distinguishable by the different clothes they wore. It was indeed Wood Dragon City and Demon Subduing Sect as the female disciples had ntioned.
“Hehe, who do we have here? So Sect Leader Li has co personally.” At this mont, an old man with a pockmarked face stepped forward and spoke sarcastically.
Li Ruoxiang coldly responded, “You both captured my disciples. How can you not permit , Li Ruoxiang, to co?”
Yang Chen asked the female disciples beside him, “Who is he?”
“The pockmarked face old man is the Great Elder of the Demon Subduing Sect, nad Huyan Shun. His face is disgusting, but his Martial Arts Cultivation is not bad, almost on par with our Sect Leader. He’s among the top figures in the Demon Subduing Sect!” The female disciple explained.
“In my opinion, the most disgusting thing about the Demon Subduing Sect isn’t all of this, it’s their constant talk about exterminating demons for the greater good and defending righteousness. Despicable people like them claim to safeguard justice while doing shaful deeds.” Soone added.
Yang Chen kept this information in mind.
Although he didn’t know how he could help, since he ca along with Li Ruoxiang, he needed to know as much about the surroundings as possible. After all, he didn’t enjoy watching others suffer.
The pockmarked-faced Elder Huyan Shun of the Demon Subduing Sect sneered: “Sect Leader Li, you’re being unreasonable! What do you an by us capturing your disciples? It’s clearly your Green Lotus Sect’s disciples who broke the rules by trespassing our territory.”
“That’s right, Brother Huyan is right. Sect Leader Li, we’re not being unreasonable with you. Hehe, we settled the rules right from the start. This Spiritual Vein is to be divided among the three factions, with none of us interfering in each other’s territory. Whoever violates this will be considered breaking the rules. Our Wood Dragon City and the Demon Subduing Sect haven’t declared war on your Green Lotus Sect yet, and we haven’t sought retribution. So, Sect Leader Li, do you still want to bla us first?” Another person suddenly chid in.
He was also an old man, but his appearance was much more pleasant than Huyan Shun’s, giving off an air of righteousness. The Wood Dragon symbol on his clothes made it easy to determine that he was from Wood Dragon City.
The people of Wood Dragon City were now joining in, obviously intending to form a pincer attack against the Green Lotus Sect together.
Li Ruoxiang’s face turned cold, as she was filled with anger when faced with the aggressive joint attack of the two factions.
Are they joking?
Her disciples crossed the line? Her disciples were in their hands. How would she know if they actually crossed the line or not?
However, she knew that she had to remain calm since her disciples were in the hands of others. Talking sense was useless; the people were still in their custody.
If the two factions refused to release the disciples, they must have an ulterior motive. The imdiate goal was to find out their motives!
