Speak the Truth
"Yunlei, although there are different ranks in Excalibur, anyone can voice their opinions. Excalibur and the Golden Sword Faction have always been at odds. Why don't we just kill them all? We've already killed Cao Xingxue and Zhou Li, we need to silence them. "
Liu Liu grinned and said.
"That's right, although we're in the right, killing them will save us trouble in the future!"
Huang Wei, Sun Tonghe, and the others did not hesitate.
Yunlei often used his status as a Grand Elder to oppress others, causing many members to dislike him.
"Yunlei, you said I'm a murderous person? Forget it, I'm too lazy to kill them. I'll do as you said and imprison them first. "
Luo Zheng waved his hand and said indifferently.
Seeing that Luo Zheng agreed with his words, Yunlei's face revealed a trace of pride.
He looked at the others and chuckled, "Although Junior Brother Luo is Excalibur's leader, he's still young. There are many things he needs us as his Senior Brothers to advise him on. You're only harming him by blindly following him! "
Everyone frowned when they heard this.
However, they did not say anything. Yunlei was also a core Grand Elder. If core members opposed each other, it would cause a negative impact.
"Alright, Junior Brother Luo, can you tell us the reason why we're all here now?"
Yunlei asked with a smug smile, realizing that he was in the limelight.
"We'll have to wait for a while. Everyone will understand in a few hours. You've been on the road for a few days, rest here. "
After Luo Zheng finished speaking, he directly walked to the side and sat down, no longer paying attention to Yun Lei.
"Hmph!"
Yunlei's face stiffened, standing on the spot. After a long time, he looked resentfully at Luo Zheng and chuckled, "You're too arrogant. I'm afraid your future achievements will be limited. The tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind."
Luo Zheng ignored him. If it weren't for the fact that he was also a Cloud Sword Faction disciple, he wouldn't have let him join Excalibur.
… …
The Mountain River Dragon Locking Formation had tens of thousands of majestic mountains and endless forests. The scenery was picturesque.
However, protector Pang, protector Liu, and the other two disciples of the South Sea Sword sect did not feel happy at all.
Their bodies were covered with wounds, and they did not even have any healing pills. Their entire bodies were in excruciating pain, and each day felt like a year.
"Why isn't Luo Zheng back yet?!"
The wounds on Protector Liu's body were bleeding, and he was in so much pain that his face twisted.
"Liu Ji, are you really going to tell Luo Zheng about this?"
One of Protector Pang's legs had been broken. Although he had managed to wrap the wound and stop the bleeding, he still looked dispirited.
"Actually, there's no harm in telling him about this. That treasure storehouse contains all the loot we've plundered from the South Demon Sea over the years. If Luo Zheng knows about this, he will naturally not give it up. Moreover, he is the future candidate for the Sect Master. Even if he knows about this, he will absolutely not leak it out. Otherwise, the Sect will definitely fall apart in the blink of an eye, which will not benefit him in any way. "
Protector Liu said.
"That's right. It's impossible for Luo Zheng to do something that won't benefit him. If he leaks it out, he'll have to face the pursuit of the elders and grand elders, unless he has a death wish!"
A second generation disciple added.
Protector Pang nodded and said no more. He had been tortured by his wounds for half a day, and his valiance had long been worn away. Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! A black speck appeared in the distance. With a few flashes, Luo Zheng descended from the sky like a dragon, landing before the four of them.
He looked at the four of them indifferently and said coldly, "So, have you made up your minds?"
The four of them looked at each other. Their faces were filled with helplessness. Protector Liu clenched his teeth and said, "We can tell you the origin of the treasury. However, you have to promise that you won't kill us, and you can't reveal this to anyone else!"
"Speak. If you keep spouting nonsense, I don't want to hear it anymore!"
Luo Zheng said impatiently.
"That treasure storehouse is actually the treasure of the Skeleton Bandits. There's a lot of wealth in there!" Protector Liu said.
"The treasure storehouse of the Skeleton Bandits? Hehe, do you really take me for a three-year-old? And why would the treasure storehouse of the Skeleton Bandits end up in your hands? "
Luo Zheng sneered. His eyes burned with killing intent, as if he was about to strike at any moment.
"Didn't you say that you'd let us go if we told you about the origins of the treasure storehouse?" Protector Pang said with a trembling voice.
"You're lying. Do you think I'm easy to bully?"
With a flash of light in Luo Zheng's hand, protector Pang's other leg was immediately severed, causing him to cry out in agony.
"I'll talk, I'll talk!"
Protector Liu broke out in cold sweat. "We are the Skeleton Bandits. All the Skeleton Bandits on the South Daemon Sea are second generation disciples of our South Sea Sword sect, including your master, Cloudsword, senior brother Goldensword, senior brother Dragonsword, Leijian, Fire Sword, Stone Sword …"
"What? How is that possible? Our South Sea Sword sect has always been the greatest organization of the South Daemon Sea. We get whatever we want. Why do we have to become pirates? "
Luo Zheng sneered inside, but his face was filled with disbelief.
"Luo Zheng, you've met the two great elders and gained their recognition. You must know that our South Sea Sword sect used to be the Southern Sword sect at the centre of the Yuanwu World. In the future, we'll return to the glory of the Southern Sword sect sooner or later, but that requires countless resources and many talented disciples. "
"However, the South Daemon Sea is a barren land. Many clans and organisations are stuck in their ways. If they take in disciples, they'll be nurturing talents for the other clans. That's why the two great elders came up with this idea. They'll steal the wealth and destroy the clans, leaving behind a few orphans. They'll be accepted into the sect and nurtured into loyal disciples! "
Protector Liu said loudly.
"Is that true?"
Luo Zheng asked.
"That's right. We can all testify. Luo Zheng, there's actually no harm in you knowing about this. You're a member of the Hundred Battles Dynasty, so this has nothing to do with you. With your startling talent, it won't be difficult for you to become a sect master in the future. At that time, all the disciples and all the wealth will be yours. "
