"Wang Lu?"
When the earthy yellow sword light lit up, Jianglu's heart was like a stormy sea. His immortal heart that was as motionless as a mountain trembled, and his Power King True Body almost collapsed on the spot.
With Jianglu's bravery, even in the face of a Yuanying Stage expert, he wouldn't be so horrified. However, Wang Lu had left him with too much psychological shadow that he could no longer control himself.
Power King True Body had infinite power, and he could freely use it. However, in the face of the lead disciple of Royal Soldier Sect, how could Jianglu dare to hold back even a little bit? This Power King True Body went all out, leaving no room for maneuver. Even if the lead disciple of Royal Soldier Sect would suffer irreparable damage, he didn't hesitate — of course, according to the relationship between Shengjing Sect and Royal Soldier Sect, this kind of damage would only make Shengjing Sect people happy.
However, in the face of Wang Lu's Non-Phase Sword, this all-out heavy punch suddenly became a suicide shortcut. Jianglu didn't dare to expect that his attack could exceed the rebound limit of Wang Lu, but he was sure that once his attack was bounced back, it would absolutely exceed his bearing limit.
If he continued, it would be a dead end, but he didn't have the means to interrupt it. Seeing that Wang Lu's Sword of Mount Kun was right in front of him, Jianglu decisively made a decision.
He launched the last means left by his Sect Elders for Shengjing Sect team. When he saw that his life was in danger, he sent himself out of the immortal dream land and escaped.
—
The scene in front of him instantly changed. Before Jianglu's forward momentum stopped, he had already appeared outside the group of immortal tombs. Escaping from death should have been fortunate, but Jianglu found it difficult to feel even half a bit of joy.
Senior Sister Qiong Hua's script could be called perfect. Every step was closely linked, and there was room for leeway in each step. If one step failed, there was still another step. And all the way, it was really smooth, and he easily ushered in the fruit of victory.
Unfortunately, just as he was about to reach out to pick the fruit, an accident happened. The opponent that Jianglu feared the most chose the most unexpected time to appear in front of him. A yellow sword light shattered his overall plan, so much so that he didn't even have time to respond.
At the moment of life and death, Jianglu had no other choice. In addition to launching his life-saving means, he didn't even have the time to inform his Senior Sister Qionghua that the plan had changed.
Only he himself knew that he intercepted Xiang Liang alone in the valley. When he contacted Wangyue siblings, he only arranged an ambush location and a battle plan for them, as well as the news that the king of Harmony River was about to take action. He didn't mention that he would be the last insurance barrier. In other people's view, at this time, Jianglu should still be playing the role of defecting to the enemy in Flaming Valley. After Xiang Liang was defeated, he would take over his position and seize greater benefits for Shengjing Sect team.
However, in fact, Jianglu was not that greedy. Defeating the lead disciple of Royal Soldier Sect was easier said than done. Even if he played all the chips in his hand, it might not be enough. Why would he put the earth on the line to lay out a game of chess in advance?
His cautiousness won him a good opportunity to win the battle. Sure enough, the lead disciple of Royal Soldier Sect was formidable. Even in the face of the King of Harmony River's assassination, he could still calmly escape. However, after all, he was not omnipotent. Finally, he revealed a flaw in front of him, but …
But why would Wang Lu appear here? This plan was so secretive that even Senior Sister Qionghua didn't know the overall details, so how did Wang Lu know all of this!?
With strong doubts, the unwillingness in Jianglu's heart almost overflowed.
In anger, he subconsciously punched the ground. The heavy punch that could split a mountain was wrapped in ripples the moment before it touched the ground, dispelling its power. At the same time, a harsh alarm buzzed, and it was as if there were more than ten mountains on his body. The heavy pressure forced him to kneel down.
"Warning, your attempt to destroy the ground has violated the relevant provisions of Chapter 5, Article 3 of the Plentiful City Public Affairs Management Measures. According to the regulations, you are now subject to the necessary constraints. Please actively cooperate with our action. During this period, you have the right to remain silent, but every word you say will become … "
This rigid, indifferent, and spell-generated voice almost made Jianglu's immortal heart collapse.
"F * ck you!"
—
At the same time, in the immortal dreamland, after effortlessly killing Jianglu, Wang Lu chuckled and put away the Sword of Mount Kun, and then looked up and down at the always low-key lead disciple of Royal Soldier Sect.
Xiang Liang still maintained a high degree of vigilance. His pair of sharp eyes carefully watched Wang Lu, observing his every subtle movement, and didn't relax even a bit.
Before going out this time, his Master seriously told him that any of the lead disciples of the Five Uniques of the Wanxian League was not simple. Qionghua was the strongest, the first among her peers, but against Zhan Ziye and Zhou Mumu, she might not necessarily win. Wang Lu's record was the best. It was rumored that he had even beheaded the Holy One of Western Continent, but miracles could not happen every time.
In the immortal dreamland, due to the restriction of conditions, the gap between the strong and the weak was reflected. Zhan Ziye and Zhou Mumu were the most restricted, so they were not a concern. Qionghua had the secret method of Shengjing Sect, so her advantage might be the biggest. However, the most alarming one was still Wang Lu.
For this young cultivator who had risen to fame in the continent, Royal Soldier Sect had done a detailed investigation. In terms of strength, Wang Lu, who had achieved small success in Non-Phase Method, was indeed worthy of the title of the lead disciple of the Five Uniques. However, he was not particularly outstanding — his Void Spirit Root was really a pain in the ass. Wang Lu's real strength lay in taking advantage of the situation. His ability to take advantage of the situation was almost unparalleled in the world.
If it was an idealized life and death contest in the arena, Wang Lu was likely to be at the bottom of the Five Uniques. However, his legendary record in the Western Continent had been occasionally circulated in a small circle. As a Xudan, the other side could turn him into ashes in one breath. However, such a strong opponent was also beheaded by Wang Lu with the help of a demigod. And the five spirits power struggle in the immortal dreamland was obviously not an idealized arena. In this environment, Wang Lu was like a fish in water.
Actually, for Xiang Liang, it didn't matter what the miraculous record of Wang Lu meant. Because even though his sect had analyzed it for a long time, he still didn't understand it. For him, complicated things were not as good as simple. Therefore, he only needed to remember one thing: In the immortal dreamland, never provoke Wang Lu.
Unfortunately, this time, it was Wang Lu who came to his door. Xiang Liang lacked the ability to deal with complex situations. In the face of Wang Lu's uninvited visit, he could only stay motionless, waiting for the opponent's next move.
Seeing the vigilant Xiang Liang, Wang Lu couldn't help but laugh and then reached out his hand to Xiang Liang. "Let's get to know each other? I'm Wang Lu. "
Xiang Liang responded very seriously, "I know you. You're the lead disciple of Spirit Sword Mountain, Earth Element Blood Spirit. You're here … for what?"
The four words "for what?" were said with a slight jerkiness, which showed that Xiang Liang was not used to these polite words. Most likely, it was the result of being trained by the Sect Elders before he went down the mountain.
Wang Lu didn't care about Xiang Liang's indifference and continued to stretch out his hand in mid-air. "I'm here, of course, to form an alliance with you, to jointly resist the great demon king of Shengjing Sect, Qiong Hua."
"Ally against Shengjing Sect?" Xiang Liang somewhat strangely frowned. "Why? In the environment of immortal dreamland, you should be the best at taking advantage of the situation. According to your past record, you can defeat the other four blood spirits alone, so why do you need to ally with other people to contend against Qiong Hua? "
"... Where did these superstitious stories come from?" Wang Lu was simply dumbfounded. There were many rumors about him in Nine Regions. However, if others believed them, then that was fine. But the person in front of him was the lead disciple of Royal Soldier Sect, one of the most influential figures in Nine Regions, how could he also believe in these rumors? Could it be that he thought that his reputation was low-key and his fans were not enough?
"Superstitious stories?" Hearing Wang Lu's answer, Xiang Liang could not help but frown. "... Indeed, from the existing theoretical and practical point of view, it's not reasonable to divide the strength and threat level of a Xudan Stage cultivator to that of a Deity Stage cultivator. Well, it seems that there has been a major mistake in the work of the intelligence analysts. When I return to the mountain, I must report this to Master and seriously investigate it. "
While saying that, Xiang Liang gradually raised a smile, and his sharp eyes also showed a bit of friendliness.
"In that case, I can understand the purpose of your visit." Xiang Liang held Wang Lu's hand. "Thank you for your support just now. I am willing to accept your alliance."
Wang Lu smiled. Although Xiang Liang's character was indeed a bit eccentric, he had never rejected eccentric people. At the same time, Wang Lu had always liked straightforward people.
—
The alliance ceremony between Spirit Sword and Emperor Army was quite sloppy. Wang Lu and Xiang Liang shook hands and then exchanged a smile with each other. The alliance was thus established.
After the alliance was formed, Wang Lu unceremoniously seized the leadership of the alliance.
"Senior Brother Xiang Liang, please work a bit harder. For the time being, don't rush to return to Flaming Valley. Stay with me in Golden City for a while."
Xiang Liang didn't mind Wang Lu's forcefulness, he was just somewhat puzzled. "This proposal is very unreasonable. At present, our army has suffered a serious loss, and our supplies have also been exhausted. Our actual combat capability has been greatly reduced. If we continue to stay in the enemy's territory, the situation will be very disadvantageous."
After the decisive battle in the valley, Xiang Liang barely managed to gather more than one hundred surviving remnants of Shengjing Sect team, but their actual combat capability was almost zero. He himself also used up a lot of precious props in the process of killing one hundred people, so he urgently needed to replenish them.
"But if we go back now, let alone replenishing, I'm afraid we'll be stabbed in the back." Wang Lu sneered. "Senior Brother, don't you want to know why you were perfectly ambushed by Shengjing Sect team?"
A trace of amazement appeared on Xiang Liang's slightly rigid face. "Indeed, my route arrangement is very secretive, and there is no oversight in the execution, but Shengjing Sect team has already prepared in advance. It was obvious that their understanding of military affairs far surpassed mine. First place in the Wanxian League is indeed a well-deserved reputation. "
"Senior Brother Xiang Liang, your integrity is simply shameful …" Wang Lu covered his face with his hand. "Actually, there's a simpler explanation."
Xiang Liang turned his head, his eyes focused and serious.
"You've been sold." Wang Lu coldly revealed the truth. "Although your route is secretive, it's not a secret to the high-level members of Flaming Valley. At least, the king of Flaming Valley absolutely knows your overall plan."
Xiang Liang nodded. "This is very reasonable. He's my reasonable superior in this pass, so he has the authority to know my action plan."
"... But the king of Flaming Valley is a person who can't control his mouth. When he's drunk, he will talk about things that he shouldn't say, and a lot of people who shouldn't hear it will hear it. Then, the spies that Shengjing Sect team arranged in Flaming Valley will tell everything to the people in front of them, and then the perfect ambush against you will be logical."
Xiang Liang was somewhat in disbelief. "Is it that simple?"
Wang Lu said, "It's simpler than you think. Otherwise, how do you think I could arrive in time to support you? Shengjing Sect people, in any case, offered their loyalty to the high-level members of Flaming Valley. I directly bribed the high-level members of Flaming Valley with two bottles of wine, and then I know everything. "
"…"
Wang Lu paused for a moment, and then said with a smile, "That's why I said Shengjing Sect people are actually quite stupid."
Although Xiang Liang was somewhat dull, upon hearing this, he felt that he seemed to be … uncomfortable.
"In short, returning to Flaming Valley now will not do you any good. On the contrary, if you continue to stay, we have a great opportunity to take advantage of."
