Zhao Hai quickly replied, "Replying to Mister, the Flying Moon Palace's people are indeed strange. The journey from Devil Heart City to Riverfly City should have been very peaceful. Our Blood Edge Gang has enmity with the Three Great Gangs, so we were afraid that the Three Great Gangs would retaliate. Therefore, we sent more people to secretly follow them. Under normal circumstances, 50 people would be a lot. But the Flying Moon Palace hired us along with 20 other people. These 20 people are all at the Clone Stage, and their strength isn't ordinary. Moreover, the Flying Moon Palace's leader is a coward. Along the way, we encountered an attack from a small bandit group. With our strength, we could easily defeat them. But the Flying Moon Palace's leader had his men protect him, not letting them participate in the battle. Although we didn't need to send a shadow squad to fight, the Flying Moon Palace's people were too cowardly. Besides these two points, there's nothing special about them."
After hearing Zhao Hai's words, the Cultivator nodded. Then his eyes flashed as he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "I heard that you had a conflict with the Flying Moon Palace's leader? Is there such a thing? "
Zhao Hai stared for a moment, then he immediately said, "It can't be considered a conflict. The leader of the Flying Moon Palace might have wanted to suppress us. Therefore, when we arranged for the night to rest, he said that the place we chose wasn't good and that we should go to the place they chose. According to the rules of the guards, the place they chose should listen to us. Therefore, I told him that if they wanted to go to the place they chose to rest, they would have to give us money and let us go. Otherwise, we wouldn't be responsible for their safety at night."
The Cultivator nodded and said, "Besides this, didn't you find anything else? Do you know what they were transporting? "
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "I don't know. Guards like us can't casually inquire about what the employer escorts. Otherwise, it would break the rules and make people think that we have bad intentions. Then the Blood-Edge Gang's reputation would be ruined and we wouldn't be able to take any missions in the future. Therefore, we didn't inquire about these things."
The Cultivator nodded, then he said, "Then when you were on the road, did you know that someone was secretly protecting you?"
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "I knew. This was what we agreed on before we set out. I also went to see the Gang Leader twice to report the situation."
"What did you say to your Sect Master?" The cultivator from the Bu Yun Sect was stunned.
Zhao Hai looked at the Cultivator and said, "I didn't say anything. I just said that the Flying Moon Palace's people were strange. Even under our protection, they still brought people to protect them. Also, I said that the Flying Moon Palace's leader wanted to suppress us. This kind of thing must be reported to the Gang Leader. After that, I reported to the Gang Leader that we were attacked."
The Cultivator nodded thoughtfully. Then he looked at Liu Zhentian and the others and said, "Alright, that's all for today. Listen, if your Gang Leader comes back, tell him to come to the Flying Moon Palace immediately. We have something to ask him."
Liu Zhentian immediately replied, "Yes. Please rest assured. When the Gang Leader comes back, I'll immediately tell him to go to the Flying Moon Palace. We definitely won't delay your matters."
The cultivator from the Buyun Sect nodded and led the others away. As soon as they left, everyone from the Blood-Edge Gang let out a long sigh of relief. Many of them secretly wiped their sweat. Those people from the Buyun Sect gave them a lot of pressure.
Actually, the Flying Moon Palace's Cultivators weren't very strong. None of them had reached the Teleportation Realm, they were all Transcending Realm Cultivators. Normally, the Blood-Edge Gang wouldn't be afraid of these few people. However, they had a Great Sect behind them. If they didn't answer well, then they would offend the Flying Moon Palace. And if they offended the Flying Moon Palace, then they would lose their lives.
Sometimes, influence can bring great pressure to people. This was also the reason why Rogue Cultivators desperately wanted to join a Great Sect.
Liu Zhentian also let out a long breath. Then he turned his head to the Blood-Edge Gang and said, "Alright, everyone should go back and rest. I heard that Devil Heart City has been quite chaotic recently, so it's better if you don't go out for a while. I've received a few missions in the past few days. Tomorrow, we'll go out and do them. This way, not only will the Blood-Edge Gang have some income, we can also leave Devil Heart City for a while."
When everyone heard Liu Zhentian, they all nodded. Only a few people frowned and didn't move. Zhao Hai looked at those people and saw that they were the Hall Masters of the Blood Edge Gang. They were the Hall Master of the Blood Edge Gang, Yu Lin Feng, the Hall Master of the Array Hall, Chen Feng, and the Hall Master of the Lie Xing.
The Blood-Edge Gang had nine halls. They were Lin, Bing, Dou, Zhe, Jie, Zhen, Lie, Zai, and Qian. Liu Zhentian was the Hall Master of the Bing Hall. He was in charge of external affairs and had great authority. Additionally, Wang Da trusted him. Liu Zhentian knew how to conduct himself and took care of his own people. Because of this, his prestige in the Blood-Edge Gang was very high. Aside from Wang Da, no one else could compare to him.
Moreover, Liu Zhentian was good friends with the Hall Masters of the Hall Master Yu Lin Feng and Hall Master Yu Lin Feng. Because of this, his status in the gang was very high.
Naturally, it was impossible for everyone in the gang to be friends with Liu Zhentian. For example, Yu Lin Feng, Chen Feng, and Lie Xing weren't friends with Liu Zhentian. Not only were they not friends, they even had some conflicts with each other.
Now that Liu Zhentian was openly giving orders, Yu Lin Feng felt uncomfortable. Because of this, he stood there and didn't move. Since he didn't move, Chen Feng and Lie Xing also didn't move. And since the three of them didn't move, the other members of the Blood-Edge Gang also didn't move.
Liu Zhentian and the other Hall Masters also noticed this situation. They also didn't move. Liu Zhentian frowned as he looked at Yu Lin Feng and said, "Hall Master Yu, is there anything else?"
Yu Lin Feng looked at Liu Zhentian and said, "Hall Master Liu, I don't know who gave you the authority to give orders like the Hall Master. Right now, Devil Heart City is in chaos, it's time for the Blood-Edge Gang to disperse. But you actually want us to leave by doing missions. What are you thinking?"
When Liu Zhentian heard Yu Lin Feng, his expression couldn't help but change as he said, "Naturally, this is the authority given to me by the Hall Master. The Hall Master gave me this authority before he left. Also, what kind of place is Devil Heart City? Any random sect here is stronger than our Blood-Edge Gang. Right now, Devil Heart City is in chaos, but that's only on the surface. The gangs aren't fighting each other, they're dealing with the Rushing Moon Palace. In this case, even if they're in chaos, how much chaos can they cause? How can this be an opportunity? If we act recklessly, then we'll just be courting death. Therefore, this isn't an opportunity at all. "
Yu Lin Feng sneered and said, "All of this is just what you said. You said that the Hall Master gave you the authority, but who heard it? The Hall Master isn't here right now, so naturally, you can say whatever you want."
Liu Zhentian's expression changed. He looked at Yu Lin Feng and coldly said, "Yu Lin Feng, what do you mean by that? Although the Hall Master hasn't returned yet, there will be a day when he does. As long as the Hall Master comes back, then everything will be clear. Do you think that I'm still faking the Hall Master's accomplishments? "
Yu Lin Feng sneered and said, "Liu Zhentian, don't pretend. Everyone can see that the Disallow Sect is already suspecting the Hall Master. Maybe the Hall Master really did take the Nine Revolution Heavenly Fragrance Grass. Then, will the Hall Master come back? If the Hall Master doesn't come back for a day, then you, Liu Zhentian, will be the boss. If the Hall Master doesn't come back for a year, then you, Liu Zhentian, will be the boss for a year? "
Cultivators weren't fools. Yu Lin Feng and the others also heard the conversation between Liu Zhentian and the Disallow Sect's Cultivator. Liu Zhentian and Zhao Hai deliberately said that. They wanted the Disallow Sect's Cultivators to think that Wang Da found out that the Rushing Moon Palace was escorting a treasure and wanted to kill them for it. Then after taking the treasure, he disappeared. This way, the Disallow Sect wouldn't make a move on them.
However, Liu Zhentian didn't think that Yu Linfeng and the others would actually believe his words. Moreover, they had already guessed that Wang Da might not be coming back. Now, they were just short of saying that Liu Zhentian wanted to seize power.
Liu Zhentian's expression turned ugly as he looked at Yu Lin Feng and said, "Yu Lin Feng, before the Hall Master returns, I will be the temporary Hall Master. I can swear that if the Hall Master doesn't come back for a year, then after a year, I will no longer be the temporary Hall Master. As for who will be in charge of the Blood-Edge Gang, that will be up to everyone. But during this year, if anyone dares to disobey my orders, then they will be disobeying the Hall Master's orders."
When Yu Lin Feng heard Liu Zhentian, he couldn't help but stare. Then his expression changed slightly. He was very clear about Liu Zhentian's plan. Liu Zhentian said that he would delegate power after a year, but he could clearly hear that this was just an excuse. During this year, Liu Zhentian would be the temporary Hall Master. Liu Zhentian had the authority to deal with the Blood-Edge Gang. He could use this time to deal with all of the Blood-Edge Gang's Halls that refused to obey him. Then after a year, when Liu Zhentian becomes the Hall Master, nobody would say anything.
But even if he said this, nobody would believe him. Moreover, Wang Da had only been missing for a few days. Liu Zhentian's prestige in the gang was still there. If he openly disobeyed Liu Zhentian's orders, then the entire Blood-Edge Gang would be disgusted. When the time comes, the one who would suffer would be him.
Yu Lin Feng knew what Liu Zhentian wanted to do, but he had no choice but to agree. If he were to oppose at this time, then he wouldn't have a good time.
Yu Lin Feng stood there with an ashen expression. Liu Zhentian looked at Yu Lin Feng and said, "Alright, everyone go back and rest. Tomorrow, those who need to do missions should do it. Those who dare to disobey will be punished by the gang's ruthless rules." Everyone responded and dispersed in twos and threes. Yu Lin Feng coldly snorted, flicked his sleeves, and turned to leave. Chen Feng and Lie Xing hurriedly followed.
At this time, Zhao Hai arrived at Liu Zhentian's side. He looked at Yu Lin Feng and said, "Brother Liu, how should we deal with these people? If we don't deal with them, then they'll be a big problem in the future. "
Liu Zhentian sneered, "Don't worry, there's plenty of time to deal with them in a year. Yu Linfeng isn't an idiot, he knows that I'll use this year to deal with him. Therefore, he'll definitely be on guard. Moreover, I think that he's premeditated today. He wants to make our conflict public so that if something happens to them, the first person to be suspected would be me. He's hoping that I won't harm them, so I won't make a move against them. His calculations aren't wrong."
Zhao Hai frowned and said, "If that's the case, then it'll be troublesome. It seems like this Yu Lin Feng isn't a simple person."
Liu Zhentian smiled faintly and said, "Even if he's smart, he still forgot to consider you, Little Ling."
When Zhao Hai heard Liu Zhentian, he couldn't help but stare. Then he looked at Liu Zhentian and said, "Me? What does this have to do with us? Does Brother Liu want me to deal with them? I'm afraid that with my strength, I can't help it. "
Liu Zhentian smiled faintly and said, "You want to deal with them? How could I do something that doesn't require any skill? Little Ling, didn't you say that you want to participate in the Sect's opening ceremony? You want to join the sect? I will support you with all my strength. You don't have to do anything during this period of time. Just focus on your cultivation. If you really join Buyun Sect, then all your problems will be solved. Even if you become an outer disciple of Buyun Sect, you just have to say a word and Yu Linfeng and the others won't have the guts to compete with me for this right. "
When Zhao Hai heard Liu Zhentian, he couldn't help but stare. He didn't think that Liu Zhentian would have such a plan. However, he had to admit that Liu Zhentian's plan was pretty good. If he really joins the Sect, then Liu Zhentian's position as the Sect Leader would be decided with just a word. Even if Wang Da was still alive, he wouldn't dare to compete with Liu Zhentian for the position of Sect Leader.
When Liu Zhentian saw that Zhao Hai didn't say anything, he patted Zhao Hai's shoulder and said, "Little Ling, work hard. As long as you join the Sect, then I'll support you with all my strength. I'll help you ascend to the top as soon as possible. Once you do, don't forget to help the Blood-edge Sect. In my generation, my talent is average, so no sect would take a fancy to me. I also know that it's almost impossible for me to break through to the Teleportation Realm in my lifetime. But if there's an opportunity, I hope that Little Ling can help my descendants."
Zhao Hai looked at Liu Zhentian, then he nodded and said, "Brother Liu, you can rest assured. I'll do my best to prepare and try my best to join the Unyun Sect. If I really succeed in the future, then I'll never forget Brother Liu's kindness."
When Liu Zhentian heard Zhao Hai, he nodded with satisfaction. Then he patted Zhao Hai's shoulder before he turned around and left.
