Dig three feet into the ground and capture Fang Xing!
On the third day after the seven day agreement, which was also the tenth day after Fang Xing attacked the sword tomb, a decree was spread throughout Nan Zhan.
"Bandit Fang Xing has offended Huangfu, killed the young division leaders of the Nine Melody Division, Fire Cloud Division, Dang You Division, and Black Marsh Division, and attacked the Sword Catacomb. He has committed the most heinous crimes and will not be forgiven even if he dies ten thousand times. Huangfu's decree has been issued. Cultivators of Southern Sight, heed my command. Capture Fang Xing, regardless of life or death, and you will be rewarded handsomely. Anyone who captures bandit Fang Xing alive will be rewarded with a divine ability, three hundred spiritual essences, one Huangfu Immortal Token, one Spiritual Cave, one hundred Purple Pills, and one Huangfu Immortal Token. Anyone who kills Fang Xing and brings the bandit's head to me will be rewarded with a profound formula, one hundred spiritual essences, one profound weapon, and fifty Purple Pills!
From this decree, one could see the anger of the Huangfu Clan.
Whoever captured Fang Xing alive would be rewarded with a divine ability and three hundred spiritual essences. What kind of value was this?
It must be known that even mid-level sects might not have a divine ability and three hundred spiritual essences was a fortune that could move the heart of a Golden Core cultivator. As for the Spirit Cave and Purple Core, they could be considered as a supplement. The most important thing was the HuangFu Immortal Token. This token meant that whoever captured Fang Xing alive would receive a token from the Huangfu Clan to protect him. Seeing the token was equivalent to seeing HuangFu, and all cultivators would retreat.
The rewards issued by this decree were too great, and it could be said that everyone was tempted.
The reason for this was that Fang Xing had offended the dignity of the Huangfu Clan, and the Huangfu Clan wanted to punish him as an example to others. The other reason was that the Huangfu Clan wanted to capture Fang Xing so that they could retrieve the lost sword embryo. Although the Huangfu Clan already knew that the sword embryo had been auctioned off by this little devil and it would be difficult to retrieve it, they were still unwilling to give up on this clue.
This was the reason why the reward for capturing Fang Xing alive was much greater than capturing him dead.
This decree was quickly spread throughout Nan Zhan with the Eight Demon Tribes of the Huangfu Clan. The efficiency was so high that even the big cities had Fang Xing's portrait. Even the Golden Crow was gloriously listed on the list. The Huangfu Clan was terrifying not only because of their enormous forces, but also because of their rallying power. With a single order, the entire Nan Zhan was turned upside down. Countless forces and countless people began to move.
When the Mysterious Domain opened, it was unknown how many forces were unable to enter the Mysterious Domain to fight for the opportunity because they didn't have the right connections, were not talented enough, or were too old. But now, the Huangfu Clan's decree gave them a good opportunity to not lose to the Mysterious Domain.
On the third day after the decree was issued, a dark cloud shrouded the top of the Blue Cloud Sect's mountain. This dark cloud was hundreds of miles wide, and it was like a piece of sky that suppressed the sky above the place where the Blue Cloud Sect was established. Within the cloud, there were indistinctly countless valiant cultivators looking on coldly and arrogantly. Ferocious demon beasts were glaring at them covetously, as if they would immediately rush down and flatten the Blue Cloud Sect once the order was given.
In front of the might of this dark cloud, the Mountain Guarding Formation of the Blue Cloud Sect seemed so dim.
"Where is the Sect Master of the Blue Cloud Sect? Come up and see me!"
The dark cloud dispersed, revealing the figure of an old man in white who was standing with his hands behind his back. At this moment, the pattern on the lower corner of his white robe indicated his identity. Impressively, he was a member of the Huangfu Clan. In the dark cloud behind him, there were also four or five figures with soaring auras standing there. Their cold gazes pierced through the dark cloud and landed on the Blue Cloud Sect. Anyone who saw them would feel a dense murderous aura.
"The Sect Master of the Blue Cloud Sect, Chen Xuanhua, greets the Angel of the Huangfu Clan. Please forgive me for not welcoming you earlier …"
Within the Blue Cloud Sect, after two or three breaths of silence, a figure stepped out of the cloud and bowed from afar. He didn't even consider his safety by staying within the Mountain Guarding Formation. This was because he knew that in front of the Huangfu Clan, the Mountain Guarding Formation of the Blue Cloud Sect really couldn't be considered a guarantee of safety. It was useless to hide inside, so he might as well face the Huangfu Clan's inquiry calmly.
"Is that bandit, Fang Xing, a disciple of your Blue Cloud Sect?"
The old man in white looked at Chen Xuanhua of the Blue Cloud Sect coldly and said in a cold voice, "What a good disciple you've taught!"
Chen Xuanhua was trembling in fear as he hurriedly said, "Senior, please understand. That traitorous disciple, Fang Xing, has long been expelled from the Blue Cloud Sect for violating the sect's rules. Before he left, he even had the audacity to blow up the three valleys of the Blue Cloud Sect and loot all the resources of the three valleys. Such an evil deed has angered both humans and gods. For so many years, the Blue Cloud Sect has been looking for him. We can't wait to tear him into pieces …"
Chen Xuanhua tried his best to express his anger towards Fang Xing in order to gain the approval of the old man in white. Although the old man didn't show any emotion on his face, he didn't really attack Chen Xuanhua either. In fact, before coming here, the Huangfu Clan had already investigated and found out that Fang Xing had indeed betrayed the Blue Cloud Sect. His anger wouldn't implicate the Blue Cloud Sect.
The reason why they came here was that the Great Snow Mountain was under the protection of the Spiritual Mountain Temple. In addition, the Great Snow Mountain was not weak, so the Huangfu Clan couldn't easily deal with them. Since they couldn't investigate the little devil's whereabouts from that direction, they could only start with the Blue Cloud Sect. Even if the little devil had betrayed the Blue Cloud Sect, there must be some traces of him cultivating and living here.
"You don't have to be afraid. The Huangfu Clan is the ruler of Nan Zhan and abides by the rules. Since the little devil has betrayed the Blue Cloud Sect, we won't do anything to the Blue Cloud Sect. However, my men will descend to the Blue Cloud Sect and investigate carefully. Moreover, when the little devil was in the Blue Cloud Sect, I want you to find all the things he used and the places he stayed in. Do you agree to this?"
Although the old man in white asked, he didn't give Chen Xuanhua any time to answer and immediately turned around to give the order.
"Yes … Yes …"
Although the other party had already given the order, Chen Xuanhua had no choice but to reply and retreat to the side.
The Huangfu Clan's forces descended from the sky and directly sealed off the entire Blue Cloud Sect.
All the disciples of the Blue Cloud Sect who had contact with Fang Xing were summoned, including the medicine boy who was taken in as a follower by Fang Xing in the spiritual herb field. All the houses that Fang Xing lived in and the things that he used were also rummaged through and solemnly stored away. This was because in the hands of those who were good at divination, they could use the residual aura on these items to calculate Fang Xing's whereabouts.
The disciples of the Blue Cloud Sect were cowering like little sheep in front of a pack of tigers and wolves.
No matter what the people of the Huangfu Clan asked, they didn't dare to hide anything and told them everything in detail.
In the hearts of these disciples of the Blue Cloud Sect, they faintly had an extremely strange feeling. Although Fang Xing had caused a huge disaster, his current strength was also shocking. One must know that everyone cultivated together in the past. Moreover, when Fang Xing had just joined the Blue Cloud Sect, which disciple in the Blue Cloud Sect didn't have a better family background, aptitude, and starting point than that little devil?
Now, why did that little bandit have to live to such an extent?
On the main peak of the Blue Cloud Peak, looking at the dark clouds that seemed to cover the sky, as well as the people of the Huangfu Clan and their generals who were coldly traversing between the peaks of the Blue Cloud Sect, there were two people whose expressions were as cold as ice. Their eyes were filled with shock, doubt, nervousness, and other expressions, as well as unconcealable fear and regret. These two people, one in a red robe and the other in a linen robe, were Qing Niao and Xiao Shan He.
"This little devil actually caused such a huge disaster. He's indeed seeking his own death …"
Qing Niao sneered. Although he seemed to be disdainful, there was unconcealable fear in his eyes.
"What if he doesn't die?" Xiao Shan He's expression was cold as he said coldly.
"What if he doesn't die?" Qing Niao's sneer immediately froze. It was as if the fear in her heart had been flipped out and revealed on her face.
Xiao Shan He continued to speak coldly. "I asked someone to inquire about what happened in the Mysterious Domain. Although it might be false, this little devil, Chu Huang of the Chu Royal Court, killed Fang Xiaojiu, who once severed four meridians by himself when he first entered the Mysterious Domain. He even killed the young division leader of the Nine Tune Tribe, Lei Jiu, and stole the Huangfu Clan's sword tomb … Which of these things can be easily done by you and me? Hehe, I didn't expect my worries from back then to become reality so quickly. That little dog that loves to bite has become a man-eating wolf … "
Qing Niao's expression was strange. She tried her best to calm down and pretended that nothing had happened. "Then you better hope that the Huangfu Clan will find this little devil and kill him. Otherwise, who knows, he might come back to seek revenge. After obtaining the mysterious technique inheritance of the Fuyao Palace, your cultivation has reached the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. However, you still haven't formed your Gold Core. Facing that crafty little devil, it won't be easy to deal with you, right?"
Xiao Shan He smiled eerily. "Naturally, I won't be easy to deal with. However, do you think that you can stay out of this matter?"
Qing Niao's expression became even more unnatural. She turned her head and said indifferently, "What does this have to do with me?"
Xiao Shan He smiled coldly. "Back then, didn't you give away that girl called Xiao Man to someone in order to obtain the mysterious technique of the Fuyao Palace?"
Qing Niao suddenly became angry and shouted, "Xiao Man is my disciple. Who I give away to is my business …"
Xiao Shan He said, "If you think that this reason can convince that little devil, you can use this to have a talk with him!"
Elder Qing Niao was instantly speechless. How could she not know that the little devil didn't know how to talk with people?
Moreover, she herself knew some things that even Xiao Shan He had never heard of. She had once forced Fang Xing to hand over the secret technique that Bai Qianzhang had left for Fang Xing. For this, she didn't even hesitate to use Xiao Man and Xu Lingyun as hostages. Even after Fang Xing betrayed the Blue Cloud Sect, she had once done something that even she felt very guilty about. She was faintly panicking in her heart and didn't know if she had angered that little devil.
