Sikong Qing's advantage had already accumulated to the point where it was hard to reverse. As long as she did not act foolishly, not being careless, victory was already within her grasp.
The cold girl's zeal towards the martial dao surpassed many people's imaginations. Currently focused on the match, she naturally would not underestimate her opponent.
Therefore, Hou Xiang's defeat was already destined.
As the sword in Sikong Qing's hand sent his spirit artifact short axe flying, Hou Xiang stood where he was, his face flushed red.
The other Infinite Boundless Mountain disciples also had no face. Ji Hanru and Hou Xiang were both elites of Infinite Boundless Mountain's younger generation, but in the end, they had both been defeated by Broad Creed Mountain disciples.
And in terms of age, Hou Xiang was older than Sikong Qing, while Ji Hanru was older than Yan Zhaoge.
Especially when Ji Hanru was older than Yan Zhaoge by more than a year or two. Strictly speaking, the two were not even opponents of the same age. Logically speaking, Ji Hanru should have obtained a complete victory.
Zhao Hao was currently also dressed in black, in the attire of an Infinite Boundless Mountain disciple.
However, he did not even glance at his fellow disciple Hou Xiang. Instead, it was Sikong Qing who caused his gaze to pause for a moment.
However, the next moment, Zhao Hao's gaze shifted to Yan Zhaoge.
Yan Zhaoge glanced at Zhao Hao. Within his gaze, he could not see the arrogance and disdain from before, but it was also definitely not gentle, instead being as sharp as a sword.
"Haha, now I don't have to give face to Uncle Zhao …" The corners of Yan Zhaoge's mouth arched slightly, his gaze suddenly turning cold and sharp.
His gaze was like lightning, the air seemingly trembling slightly, piercing Zhao Hao's eyes to the point of pain.
In mid-air, Elder Zuo snorted, "A late outer aura Martial Scholar trying to show off his might against an early inner aura Martial Scholar?"
This heavy, cold snort of his was condensed to the point of being tangible, pressuring down towards Yan Zhaoge like a mountain peak.
Fu Enshu similarly snorted coldly from the side, "First take care of your disciple's eyes. Unbridled provocation, does he think that no one can take care of him?"
As her words resounded, that mountain peak pressuring down towards Yan Zhaoge mightily shattered, disappearing without a trace.
Looking straight at Elder Zuo, Fu Enshu said slowly, "Speaking of showing off his might, your disciple, just now, was only at the early Xiantian stage, fighting the late outer aura Zhaoge, right?"
Her words had always been like a torrential storm. At this moment, she suddenly spoke softly and slowly, which made her even more infuriating.
On the ground, looking at Zhao Hao, Zhao Ming sighed, "Sixteenth Brother, with your talent, even without inheriting the throne, you could still enter my Broad Creed Mountain, receiving the clan's focused grooming. Why did you have to go through all the trouble of walking to this step today?"
Zhao Hao glanced at Zhao Ming out of the corner of his eye, not answering him at all.
Compared to Zhao Yuan, Zhao Sheng, and the others, Zhao Ming was more straightforward and sentimental, but his temper was also more impulsive. Seeing Zhao Hao's arrogant and disdainful expression, he was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Fu Enshu's voice came from the sky, "So it's that unfilial son of Zhao Shicheng's."
The person she respected the most in her life was her master, Yuan Zhengfeng. The two of them were like father and daughter, so she could not stand anyone being unfilial.
Fu Enshu's likes and dislikes followed her heart. She was not a reasonable person in the first place. Now that she recognized Zhao Hao, her gaze immediately became impolite.
Her gaze could really create electricity in the void, and there seemed to be a stream of light flashing in a daze.
Elder Zuo's expression changed as he yelled, "Fu Enshu, you're too impudent!"
He moved to block Fu Enshu's attack. Fu Enshu's brows shot up, "Huh?"
Shan Shiweng raised his hands to stop the two, his gaze looking at Fu Enshu, "Our two clans had an agreement that day, and the matter of the Eastern Tang has already been put to rest. No matter what this child's background is, he is now a disciple of my Infinite Boundless Mountain."
Fu Enshu glanced at Yan Zhaoge, Feng Yunsheng, Sikong Qing and the others.
With her temperament, if she was alone, she might not care about anything else and slaughter Zhao Hao on the spot, even if she was surrounded and attacked by Shan Shiweng and the other two afterwards.
However, her clan also had disciples of the younger generation present. If she did not take good care of them, the consequences would be unthinkable.
Infinite Boundless Mountain's Elder Zuo said coldly, "Fu Enshu, do you really think that without your Broad Creed Mountain's people, my Infinite Boundless Mountain would not be able to handle the problem of the Giant Spirit Magnetite vein by ourselves?"
"Huh?" Fu Enshu was slightly taken aback, lowering her head to look at Zhao Hao, "… You aren't talking about him, right?"
Shan Shiweng was silent for a moment, before he nodded, "To tell you the truth, our clan's new disciple, Zhao Hao, has also proposed a method to restore the Giant Spirit Magnetite vein."
"Before this, we had always kept it a secret, not because we were intentionally concealing it, but because we were doing an on-the-spot investigation to ensure that it was complete."
At this point, Shan Shiweng's expression did not change, but Elder Zuo and the Magnetite Elder stared somewhat unkindly at Zhao Hao.
This was because this kid was too greedy, always keeping the most important secret to himself, only revealing a limited amount of information.
However, this matter was of great importance, relating to one of Infinite Boundless Mountain's most important lifelines, and Elder Zuo also did not dare to suppress the matter and not report it.
Therefore, he was unable to monopolize such a great merit, only being able to share some of it through Zhao Hao's recommendation.
The Magnetite Elder guarding Cloud Portent Mountain was also in a similar situation.
While facing Broad Creed Mountain, the two Infinite Boundless Mountain bigwigs were currently supporting their disciple Zhao Hao, they were also extremely dissatisfied with this insensible junior.
On the other hand, they also had doubts within their hearts, not knowing whether Zhao Hao's method would really work.
These past few days, Zhao Hao had been at Cloud Portent Mountain, doing an on-the-spot investigation.
Because they had not completely completed their investigation earlier, when Yan Zhaoge and the others had come to visit, Infinite Boundless Mountain had not raised any objections, having made two safe preparations.
This was the reason why Yan Zhaoge had previously felt that Infinite Boundless Mountain's attitude was ambiguous.
Glancing coldly at Yan Zhaoge and Fu Enshu, Zhao Hao said, "The plan on my side is already complete; there is no longer a need to think of a method from outside the clan."
The meaning behind his words was that Yan Zhaoge and the others were already of no use here.
"Ah," Fu Enshu was angered to the point of laughing.
Looking at Zhao Hao, a thoughtful expression appeared on Yan Zhaoge's face.
Yan Zhaoge completely couldn't be bothered with Hou Xiang's earlier nonsense.
After the first Extreme Yin Bout, when the Extreme Yin Crown had fallen into the hands of the Sacred Sun Clan, the relationship between Broad Creed Mountain and Infinite Boundless Mountain had warmed, their cooperation increasing.
It was only during the second Extreme Yin Bout, when the Extreme Yin Crown had been obtained by Jade Sea City that Infinite Boundless Mountain had gradually drifted apart from Broad Creed Mountain.
Now that the Extreme Yin Crown had fallen into the hands of the Sacred Sun Clan once more, would they join hands with the Sacred Sun Clan?
Therefore, following the third Extreme Yin Bout, when the Extreme Yin Crown had once more fallen into Meng Wan's hands, the conflict between Broad Creed Mountain and Infinite Boundless Mountain had immediately eased.
However, cooperation did not mean that they were inseparably close.
How they cooperated, to what extent they cooperated, what they could obtain from the other side; these were all matters that constantly changed, constantly being weighed.
For example, when the Sacred Sun Clan and Broad Creed Mountain were at war, Infinite Boundless Mountain would definitely not help the Sacred Sun Clan. However, whether they watched without lifting a finger or truly helped Broad Creed Mountain in facing the Sacred Sun Clan together were naturally two different matters.
If he represented Broad Creed Mountain in helping Infinite Boundless Mountain solve the huge problem of the Giant Spirit Magnetite vein, Infinite Boundless Mountain would owe him, owe Broad Creed Mountain a huge favour.
If the two sides cooperated afterwards, Broad Creed Mountain would definitely hold a huge advantage.
Also, this would not require Broad Creed Mountain to pay anything of substance; the Giant Spirit Magnetite vein was Infinite Boundless Mountain's.
