"You're just an ordinary cultivator at the seventh layer of Qi Refining, yet you can refine magic weapons so smoothly. You must have your own methods. I'm very interested in your magic weapon refining method."
Lu Xiaotian sheathed his sword. Although magic weapons were extremely powerful, they also consumed a lot of magic power. Weng Zhihan was like a toothless tiger. He didn't believe that this old baldy could still play any tricks under his watch.
"In your dreams. I know you have the Foundation-Building Elixir. You can't escape death. Don't even think about getting my secret weapon refining method!" Weng Zhihan cried out.
Lu Xiaotian was silent. This old man was scheming and vicious. What he said was true. He had two magic weapons and even a rare treasure like the Foundation-Building Elixir.
Even the hundreds of Foundation-Building cultivators in Divine Firmament Palace couldn't get the Foundation-Building Elixir for their children. They could only get the Foundation-Building Elixir by improving the strength of their children and disciples. Once outsiders knew he had the Foundation-Building Elixir, he might not be able to return to Divine Firmament Palace alive. Even if he did return, many people would use all kinds of methods to force him to hand it over. Therefore, he wouldn't let Weng Zhihan leave alive.
However, Lu Xiaotian soon sneered, "Of course your death won't be regretted. However, although I haven't seen the person who has been secretly communicating with you, passing on information, massacring Sophora Tree Village, and guiding me to Ox Head Mountain with you, he should be your son or a close relative. You even ruthlessly brought your nephew into the Blackwater Stronghold mine. That person must be very close to you. "
"How, how do you know this?" Weng Zhihan's expression was as if he had seen a ghost. Even Qian Dali didn't know about this. Lu Xiaotian in front of him had actually grasped his fatal weakness.
"Do you really think you've done it flawlessly?" Lu Xiaotian sneered, "Back in the Blackwater Stronghold mine, I already knew you weren't simple. At that time, you said you sent your son to check the situation outside the mine, but your son was killed. After that, you didn't go up again. Since that's the case, how do you know Qian Dali removed your name from the list of disciples of Divine Firmament Palace? Unless someone told you the news, and that person had free access to the mine. You're a sly old fox. You can't be trusted by normal people. Therefore, this person must be someone you trust the most. "
Weng Zhihan's expression changed. He didn't expect that his flaw would appear in such an inconspicuous sentence. At that time, Lu Xiaotian sensed that something was wrong. "If that's the case, why did you take care of me in the mine? Since you think I have help outside, why do you want to use your hands to get me out? "
"I don't care about the grudge between you and Qian Dali. Besides, I'm also quite interested in Qian Dali's matters. At that time, we didn't have any conflict of interest. Instead, we each took what we needed. Naturally, I could tolerate you." Lu Xiaotian said, "As for why you want me to get you out of here, it's probably because you're afraid that your foreign aid will expose his identity. Qian Dali will notice that something's wrong and end up killing that person."
"Besides, the reason why you didn't come out of the mine before was because of your own reasons. The cultivators on Mount Niushou were also one of the reasons. Because your Foundation Establishment Pill was accidentally taken to Mount Niushou by the black-armored man. That black-armored man was already a Qi Condensation cultivator. You weren't his match at all. Furthermore, a treasure like the Foundation Establishment Pill couldn't be given to someone else. Therefore, even if you risked your life to leave the mine, you wouldn't be able to retrieve the Foundation Establishment Pill. As such, it would be safer for you to stay in the mine. At the very least, you could struggle at death's door. "
Lu Xiaotian snorted and continued, "It wasn't until you met me in the mine, especially after you saw my growing strength and my Ice Silk that you thought of this vicious scheme. You used the magic tool you refined for me as bait to lure me into helping you escape from the Blackwater Stronghold's mine. At the same time, you racked your brains on how to plot against me. "
"First, you had your trusted subordinates kill the villagers of Scholar Tree Village and falsely accuse them of being killed by the bandits of Mount Niushou. You used the pretense of looking for your daughter as an excuse to lure me to Mount Niushou and use me to kill those bandits you couldn't deal with. Then, you used the excuse of looking for your daughter's belongings to retrieve the inkstone that hid the Foundation Establishment Pill at Mount Niushou, thus achieving your greatest goal. You also took the opportunity to test my strength and pave the way for your later plans. "
"Then, the second step was to bring me into the underground palace. While it was true that you wanted to refine the Daemon Binding Rope, you borrowed my materials to refine a magic tool for yourself. You had already calculated the time and were waiting for the Daemon Binding Rope to reach its final stage. Your trusted subordinates had already been waiting outside for a long time and notified the so-called Eight Eccentrics of Blackwind Ravine. You told them that there were treasures in the underground palace. Your goal was to borrow their hands to delay me. While I fought with them, you would refine the Daemon Binding Rope that had already been refined. When the time came, it didn't matter if I died at the hands of the Eight Eccentrics of Blackwind Ravine or if they were defeated by me. You already had a magic tool in hand and victory was in your grasp. You didn't fear any of us at all. The only small surprise was that you didn't expect me to kill so many of the Eight Eccentrics of Blackwind Ravine so easily. Your goal of refining the Daemon Binding Rope was foiled. You also didn't expect me to have a flying sword magic tool. Actually, when I saw those eight people outside the underground palace, I had already guessed at your intentions. "
Lu Xiaotian looked at Weng Zhihan like a cat toying with a mouse. This bald old man's schemes ran deep and he was no less cunning than the black-robed old man from back then. However, he had experienced so many years of hardship that his mind was no longer the same as before.
Weng Zhihan said in disbelief, "No, that's impossible. A few of the villagers who escaped from Scholar Tree Village all said that bandits had entered the village. How could you have seen through them? Since you could see through them, why did you follow me to Mount Niushou and only expose me now? "
"Do you think your trusted subordinate's methods are very clean? When you were rushing to Mount Niushou, I made a trip to Scholar Tree Village first. The villagers there died very strangely. They were shocked and in disbelief. They didn't resist at all. Do you think that's normal? This can only mean one thing. The person who did this was someone the villagers were familiar with. The villagers never imagined that this person would actually kill them, so they didn't even have the time to be afraid. Later on, when you killed too many people, a few villagers luckily escaped. They escaped in a panic, so what could they possibly know? You sure are ruthless. For the sake of your goals, you didn't care about letting so many people die in vain! "
Lu Xiaotian stared at Weng Zhihan like he was looking at a corpse. No matter what, he had to kill this venomous old man today.
