The three women disappeared into thin air like phantoms.
The six of them stood there in silence as if they were afraid that they would return. The three women's methods had already frightened them.
After a while, Hu Tianfang shook his head and smiled bitterly. "As expected of Taihao Peak!"
The gloomy middle-aged man said slowly, "Clan Leader Hu, we've really failed this time. All our plans have been for naught. We're not fated with the Divine Lightsaber anymore."
Hu Tianfang glanced around and said, "It's not that easy. I've cultivated four swords in total. Other than these three, the governor has one more. We're not capable enough to keep it, but the governor has no problem."
"The governor has one too?" The gloomy middle-aged man was overjoyed.
Hu Tianfang said slowly, "How could the governor not have predicted this?"
"Let's see if they can snatch the governor's sword!" The gloomy middle-aged man said fiercely.
He felt extremely aggrieved. As a man, he was actually pressed down by three women to the point he couldn't catch his breath. Even though these three women were disciples of Skyhigh Peak, he still felt he couldn't endure it and was depressed to the point he wanted to shout and scream.
Hu Tianfang sighed. "Let's go, we'll meet up with the governor."
"Alright." The gloomy middle-aged man scoffed.
Chu Li sat at the peak and shook his head and laughed as he watched their dejected faces.
He had a preliminary understanding of Taihao Peak's methods. As expected of Taihao Peak, not only were they outstanding in martial arts, but their minds were also extraordinary.
He could not see the face of the petite woman earlier because the white veil on her face was unusual. She also had a treasure that blocked the Omniscient Mirror's prying. However, he could tell from the aura that she revealed that her cultivation level was shocking and that he was no match for her.
This was only the disciples of this generation. If it was the previous generation, it seemed like he was still far from being able to dominate the Outer Heavens Realm. The Divine Lightsaber was not that easy to snatch. Since Taihao Peak had already made a move, the Heaven Shaking Pavilion would definitely not stand idly by.
He did not see Xiao Qi and Sun Mingyue because this was a critical moment.
Although the two women had already sensed his presence, they did not react. It was obvious that they guessed that he was trying to fish in troubled waters. He did not want his senior sister to see through him, so he pretended not to know. It would not be too late to meet them later.
Chu Li continued to sit at the peak of the mountain and observed their thoughts with the Omniscient Mirror from ten miles away.
The six of them sat down again, but they were listless. They stared at the bonfire absent-mindedly, not saying a word.
Chu Li saw that Zhu Lengying was also frowning with his head lowered and a worried look on his face. He couldn't help but laugh inwardly. It seemed that Zhu Lengying had completely assimilated into his identity as a disciple of the City of Ten Thousand Swords. It had already become a habit, and he wouldn't reveal any flaws.
Hu Tianfang suddenly spoke and snorted, "Motherf * cker, it really isn't that simple. This time, we have to be careful. Don't fail to snatch the Divine Light Sword and end up dying inside. It looks like we didn't pay enough attention and thought too simply."
"Yes." The gloomy middle-aged man nodded slowly.
"City of Ten Thousand Swords?" Suddenly, a soft shout came from the void.
Everyone hurriedly looked up and saw four young men standing in the air ten meters away. The young man in the lead was wearing a loose purple robe. He was tall and skinny, as if he could fly away with the wind at any time.
Hu Tianfang and the others got up and set up the sword formation. Hu Tianfang cupped his fists and said in a deep voice, "May I know who the four young masters are?"
"You're from the City of Ten Thousand Swords, right?" The young man in the lead was handsome and arrogant. He stood in the void with his hands behind his back and said slowly, "Was it a disciple of Taihao Peak who came here just now?"
"That's right," Hu Tianfang said in a deep voice.
He could feel the aura of the four of them like a mountain, pressuring him so much that he could not breathe. Although he felt aggrieved, these people did not take them seriously at all and did not even bother to reveal their names, he could only endure it.
However, Chu Li recognized this young man. He was also an old friend of his, Zhao Haiyuan!
Zhao Haiyuan frowned and said, "What did they come here for?"
"They just taught us a lesson," Hu Tianfang said.
He resisted the temptation and did not tell them the truth, lest the petite woman came to settle the score with him later. The disciples of Taihao Peak would do what they said. If he really told these four young men, his life would be in danger.
"That's not right." Zhao Haiyuan shook his head with his hands behind his back and said calmly, "Tell the truth, lest you suffer. They didn't just teach you a lesson. They must have taken something, right?"
"This …" Hu Tianfang sighed and said, "We can't tell you."
"Hmm, it was the people of Taihao Peak who threatened you," Zhao Haiyuan said calmly. "Alright then, let me guess. They took your swords?"
Hu Tianfang was stunned and did not say a word.
Zhao Haiyuan scoffed and said, "It's fake Divine Light Swords, isn't it?"
Hu Tianfang looked at him in shock.
Zhao Haiyuan said, "The City of Ten Thousand Swords is really something. This time, the world is really going to be in chaos!"
Hu Tianfang hurriedly said, "You guessed it, not me. … May I know your name, Young Master?"
"Zhao Haiyuan of the Heaven Shaking Pavilion!" Zhao Haiyuan said slowly, "How many fake swords did the City of Ten Thousand Swords forge?"
"This …" Hu Tianfang hesitated.
Zhao Haiyuan said calmly, "Two? Three? Four? Five? "
Hu Tianfang shook his head without saying a word.
Zhao Haiyuan said, "Looks like it's five. They really want to see the world in chaos! The six of you, inform Castellan Guo and tell him to back off. Don't get involved in this matter! "
Hu Tianfang shook his head and said, "We can't make the decision for the Governor."
Zhao Haiyuan said calmly, "This matter is not simple. It's the Asura Realm's conspiracy!"
"Is there no Divine Light Swords?" Hu Tianfang was stunned and quickly said, "We've all been fooled?"
"There is a Divine Light Sword." Zhao Haiyuan said, "But it's not in the Grandmaster's Realm, it's in the Heavenly Demon Realm. Are you going to look for it in the Heavenly Demon Realm?"
Hu Tianfang shook his head and laughed. "That's impossible. Someone has clearly seen the Divine Light Sword!"
"That one is also fake. It's a fake sword made by the Asura," Zhao Haiyuan said calmly, "Tell Governor Guo about this so that he won't waste his effort!"
"Then, Great Heaven Peak is also fooled?" Hu Tianfang was still skeptical.
Zhao Haiyuan raised an eyebrow and said impatiently, "Great Heaven Peak doesn't know either."
Hu Tianfang laughed and was overjoyed. "Haha, Great Heaven Peak is really fooled?"
"Yes," Zhao Haiyuan said, "They're just slightly more skilled in martial arts. It's not surprising that they were fooled."
"That's right." Hu Tianfang laughed. "Didn't you tell Great Heaven Peak?"
Zhao Haiyuan said, "You don't have to worry about that. Bring the letter to Governor Guo."
"Yes," Hu Tianfang fist saluted.
Zhao Haiyuan and the three young men suddenly disappeared.
Hu Tianfang and the others looked at each other and couldn't help but show doubtful expressions.
They began to discuss.
"Is this news true or not?"
"The people from the Heaven Shaking Pavilion won't lie."
"That's hard to say. If they're tempted, they can just tell everyone to leave and take the Divine Light Sword for themselves."
"There's no need to go through so much trouble. They can deduce the location of the Divine Light Sword. We can just go and find it."
"If it's that easy, we wouldn't even be here." Hu Tianfang shook his head slowly. "The Divine Light Sword's location can't be deduced. Otherwise, it wouldn't be called a Divine Sword."
"Then are we really going to find the Governor?"
"That's the only way."
"Sigh … How depressing. How frustrating!" Zhu Lengying sighed.
