In an instant, everyone in the hall pulled out their weapons. The atmosphere became extremely tense as the swords and sabers faced each other.
"Let go of our Sect Leader!"
"Let go of Sect Leader Lin!"
"What are you trying to do? Are you trying to start a war with us now? "
Everyone shouted, but no one dared to take a step forward.
Yi Jian and the elders of the Mingjian Sect were sweating profusely as they trembled in fear.
Yi Jian looked at Zhong Shudao. Zhong Shudao waved his hand at him, indicating that he should not be too nervous. Then, he walked forward.
"You seem to have a death wish?" The right hand of the Dragon and Phoenix Beast turned into a dragon claw and grabbed Lin Xi's throat, lifting him up into the air. At the same time, the Dragon and Phoenix Beast looked around with a sarcastic smile.
In its eyes, this group of people was like a bunch of clowns.
The terrifying strength of Long Chenfeng made Lin Xi lose all his strength in an instant. He did not even have the strength to resist.
Lin Xi's eyes were filled with fear. He looked at the unusually calm face, but he knew that this person could kill him easily.
Although he had guessed that the Dragon and Phoenix Beast was stronger than him, he did not expect that a fifth-grade Wu Huang like him would not even have the strength to resist in front of the Dragon and Phoenix Beast.
At this moment, everyone was shocked, especially those who had just insulted Zhong Shudao. They all felt that they had underestimated this so-called Mr. Dragon and Phoenix. The strength of this person was beyond their imagination.
"Don't kill him." At this moment, Zhong Shudao came to the side of the Dragon and Phoenix Beast and said softly.
The Dragon and Phoenix Beast frowned and glanced at Zhong Shudao with dissatisfaction. Other than Lin Yun, no one could order them to do anything.
"Keep him alive. He's useful." Zhong Shudao transmitted his voice secretly. He was still worried that the Dragon and Phoenix Beast would kill Lin Xi.
If they killed Lin Xi here, then some people would have a very legitimate reason to become enemies with them.
Although the group of people in the hall was not a threat and they could not stop them if they wanted to leave, Zhong Shudao was worried.
However, what Zhong Shudao feared was that this million-strong army would cause the Northern Region to suffer losses.
Now that the Northern Region was in the construction stage, every soldier was extremely important to the Northern Region.
This was also why Lin Yun had created the immortal-qi airship. It was to minimize the damage to the Northern Region.
After a moment of hesitation, the Dragon and Phoenix Beast let go and walked to the side as if nothing had happened.
Lin Xi sat on the ground with a lingering fear. He was sweating profusely and panting.
Zhong Shudao shot him a glance, then said in a clear voice, "Everyone, tomorrow morning, my army will attack the Hundred Possibilities Sect. Here, I want to make a bet with everyone."
Everyone looked at each other before looking at Zhong Shudao warily. They hadn't even put away their weapons yet.
"Sect Sect Leader Lin Xi," said. "You, Lin Xi," Xi, "Lin said.
"I can promise you that it will only take one day for the Hundred Possibilities Sect's allied army to be destroyed."
Before Zhong Shudao could finish, Yi Jian stood up and said in a deep voice, "If the Northern Region can defeat the Hundred Possibilities Sect in a day, Ming Jian Sect is willing to pledge allegiance to the Northern Region."
Zhong Shudao nodded at Yi Jian to express his gratitude. With Yi Jian's words, the other major sects also expressed their stance. In the end, Lin Xi had no choice but to agree to this.
The bet for a day was set.
As the night deepened, the sect leaders of the major sects also took their leave and returned to their residences.
At this moment, in the residence of the Water Shadow Sect, Lin Xi smashed the long table in front of him and cursed. "That damned guy ruined our plan!"
"Sect Leader, what should we do? Are we still going to continue with our previous plan? "The Water Shadow Sect's elder asked worriedly.
"How? Right now, the sects that support us add up to no more than 500,000 people! That damned Yi Jian actually agreed to Zhong Shudao at such a crucial moment! "Lin Xi's expression was ferocious and extremely angry.
Their original plan was to attack the Spiritual Beast Sect and the Rainbow Sect when the Northern Region Army attacked the Hundred Possibilities Sect and cut off the retreat of the Northern Region Army.
At the same time, as long as they cut off the retreat of the Northern Region Army, the troops of the four major sects would also come out in full force and attack the Northern Region Army from three directions with the two major armies.
However, this plan was completely ruined because of Zhong Shudao.
After pondering for a moment, Lin Xi thought of a solution. "Immediately inform Sect Leader Gong that they must resist the Northern Region Army for a day no matter what!"
"As long as they persist, we can still incite the crowd and continue with our plan!"
"Sect Leader is wise." The elder flattered.
Lin Xi drank a mouthful of wine and calmed down a little.
Before the Earth Core Sect Leader left the Northeast Region, he had promised Lin Xi that as long as they could chase the Northern Region Army out of the Northeast Region, he, Lin Xi, would get the opportunity to enter the Darkness Sect.
At that time, he would transform from a sparrow to a phoenix. This was a condition that no one could refuse.
Lin Xi raised his head and saw that the elder was still standing in front of him. He immediately berated, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and inform Sect Leader Gong! "
"He can't go. Do you want to go by yourself?" At the same time, a gloomy voice sounded.
Lin Xi's expression changed. He saw that the elder in front of him suddenly fell backward and had long lost his breath.
"No …" The candles in the room were extinguished and a majestic aura appeared. In less than a second, accompanied by a scream, a mist of blood exploded in the night.
A moment later, the Dragon and Phoenix Beast walked into Zhong Shudao's room and laid down on the bed by itself and closed its eyes.
A strange smile appeared on Zhong Shudao's face and he seemed somewhat gloomy.
He looked at the voice transmission talisman on the table. On it was a message sent by Lin Yun an hour ago. There was only one word — feasible.
"Thank you for your help, Mr. Dragon and Phoenix." Zhong Shudao walked to the side of the bed and cupped his hands towards the Dragon and Phoenix Beast to express his gratitude. He still had that amiable look on his face, which was completely different from the strange smile he had just revealed.
The Dragon and Phoenix Beast opened its eyes and looked at Zhong Shudao with a complicated expression. After a moment, it said, "You're even more ruthless than I thought."
"Of course it's because of Shu Dao's selfish motives." Zhong Shudao opened his folding fan and looked out of the window. He would never forget that other than the few of them, only Lin Xi knew about Sun Yigui's news of the mystic realm.
"Sect Leader … Shu Dao has avenged you."
