"Let's destroy that shitty sect together?"
Li Zexuan murmured. Then, he looked at Brother Chicken and said with a faint smile, "Alright! I'll take you guys to destroy that sect in a few days! Feiji, you'll be the vanguard! "
"Huh?"
Brother Chicken was dumbfounded. He was just shouting the slogan to show his loyalty. How could he dare to face a peak Grand Master? Wasn't that courting death?
"Cough, cough! Lord Jue, this... this... "
Brother Chicken stuttered for a long time, not knowing how to smooth things over. He was extremely embarrassed.
"Haha! Look at how scared you are! "
Li Zexuan waved his hand and said with a smile, "I'm just teasing you! Revenge must be taken, but I, Li Zexuan, won't let my brothers die for nothing! It's said that the terrain of Snake Spirit Mountain is full of poisonous miasma. If we attack it by force, there will be a lot of casualties. We must have a foolproof plan! Besides, we haven't found the specific location of Snake Spirit Mountain yet! We'll make another plan after we get the news from the government! If the Seven Cultivators of Virtue is willing to hand over the murderer, then it's fine. If they don't, then I have a way to teach them a lesson! "
"Lord Jue, I, Old Pang, am not afraid. My head is as big as a bowl, what's there to be afraid of! When you want to destroy the Seven Cultivators of Virtue, remember to call me along! "
Perhaps Li Zexuan's confidence had infected Pang Feiji. Brother Chicken's face was flushed as he shouted loudly.
"Haha! Alright! I'll bring you along if I need you! "
...
In the depths of Qinling Mountain.
A huge mountain stood between the heavens and the earth. The mountain was as tall as the sky, and it was covered with lush trees. They were so dense that it seemed as if they were going to cover the entire mountain without letting the wind in.
The strange thing was that the other mountains were filled with the chirping of insects and birds, but this mountain was eerily quiet. Even the birds in the sky took the initiative to take a detour when they were about to reach this mountain.
In the forest, a winding mountain path could be vaguely seen. If one looked carefully, they would find that the whole mountain was surrounded by a faint black fog, which looked extremely evil!
And at the bottom of this mountain, there was a huge rock that was half the height of a person. On it, there were three blood-red words — Snake Spirit Mountain!
At the top of the mountain, houses of various sizes were sparsely distributed. One could vaguely see groups of two or three young people dressed in green robes walking on the small paths. The sleeves of their robes were embroidered with a giant seven-headed snake, looking exceptionally terrifying!
This was the 'headquarters' of the Seven Cultivators of Virtue!
"Hmph! Junior Brother! You are really muddle-headed. That Li Zexuan is the founding father of the dynasty. Now, he is the Crown Prince, Zhan Shi. How could you dare to assassinate him? "
In a secret room, a tall man with red hair said to the thin man in black who was meditating in the corner.
"Senior Brother! Ever since I returned to the sect the day before yesterday, how many times have you said these words to me? That Li Zexuan killed my most beloved disciple. If I don't exterminate his entire family, how can I still call myself the Snake King? How can I face my disciple who died so tragically? So what if he was a county man? If worse comes to worst, I will perish together with him! "
The skinny man opened his eyes and roared angrily.
Looking at his eyes, his figure, and his words, it was clear that he was the black-masked assassin who tried to assassinate Li Zexuan a few days ago — Snake King!
Flying Snake was his disciple. Flying Snake was really unlucky that day. As a Middle-stage Grand Master, he tried to assassinate Li Zexuan, a "small fry" who was half a step away from the Supreme Power Realm. Not only did he fail to kill Li Zexuan in seconds, but he also almost lost his head. Even though he managed to survive, his last move to escape consumed a lot of his life potential, which directly led to a great loss of his strength. Now, he was basically equivalent to a martial artist who had just entered the Supreme Power Realm.
At that time, he was covered in injuries and his true qi was almost exhausted. However, he didn't dare to return to the sect to heal his injuries immediately because there were hundreds of Imperial Guards chasing after him!
After stumbling and hiding for several days, Snake King took advantage of the fact that the wind was gradually calming down and secretly returned to the sect.
The Snake King of a generation was reduced to such a pitiful state!
"Foolish! Stupid! Since ancient times, the common people have never fought with the government. Our sect should have just stayed put and quietly made a fortune. Why did you have to provoke the Imperial Court? The current Emperor has a strong army under him. How can a small sect like the Seven Cultivators of True Virtue provoke him? You're forcing the Seven Cultivators of True Virtue to a dead end! "
The red-haired man glared at him and scolded angrily.
What was even more strange was that his eyes were also red!
"Hmph! Senior Brother, don't worry. I won't implicate the sect! When I tried to assassinate Li Zexuan that day, I was masked. No one knows my true identity! And no one knows that I'm from the Seven Cultivators of True Virtue! "
Snake King snorted with dissatisfaction.
"Bullshit!"
The red-haired man angrily punched the stone wall next to him and roared, "I heard a disciple say this morning that a large number of the Imperial Court's troops appeared in the periphery of the Qinling Mountains. I'm afraid Li Zexuan has already investigated your background! Our Seven Cultivators of True Virtue is in danger! "
"What? That's impossible! "
Snake King's face suddenly changed. He stood up and muttered, "Impossible! I haven't walked around in Jianghu for more than ten years. Plus, I was masked that day. How could anyone recognize me? Maybe those troops aren't here for the Seven Cultivators of True Virtue? "
The red-haired man coldly snorted and said, "Hmph! I hope they aren't here for us. Otherwise, the Seven Cultivators of True Virtue will definitely suffer a calamity! "
Snake King had already calmed down at this time. He expressionlessly said, "If they are really here for us, Senior Brother can just hand me over! I, Snake King, will bear the consequences of my own actions. I won't implicate the sect! "
As soon as his voice fell, the temperature in the stone room suddenly dropped to the freezing point.
The red-haired man's face alternated between blue and white. After a while, he flicked his sleeves and roared, "Bastard! Do you think I, Yin Batian, am a despicable person who would betray my fellow junior brother in exchange for my own safety? Even if you made a mistake, I, as your Senior Brother, will shoulder it with you! At worst, the entire Seven Cultivators of True Virtue will die with us! "
"Senior Brother …"
Snake King was startled. A touched expression appeared on his face as he said, "I've implicated Senior Brother this time!"
"Hmph! Although I, Yin Batian, won't betray my fellow disciples, Junior Brother, you were too reckless this time! If the Seven Cultivators of True Virtue can escape this calamity, you'll have to reflect on your actions! The Imperial Court isn't something we can provoke! "
Yin Batian waved his hand and said unhappily. His face was still clouded over.
"Senior Brother is right! But Senior Brother, why are you so pessimistic? Snake Spirit Mountain is full of poisonous miasma and is a natural stronghold. It's easy to defend and hard to attack. Moreover, our Seven Cultivators of True Virtue has a peak Grandmaster like you. If the Imperial Court wants to flatten our sect, they'll have to pay with ten thousand lives! "
Snake King gave Yin Batian some face and admitted his mistake verbally. Then, he said with a ruthless face.
