Zhao Lingfeng sneered, "They are really used to being domineering, even more arrogant than the Dream Faction!"
Huang Tianyi said, "The Dream Faction can be both soft and hard, while the Heaven Devouring Faction can only be domineering, which is why they can't be tough for long. But they must have something special to be able to survive for so long. It's best if we don't fight."
Zhao Lingfeng snorted, "Do you think I can stop fighting just because I don't want to? Give me some advice, what should we do? We can't really hand over the disciples, can we? What would become of the Flying Sky Faction then? "
Huang Tianyi shook her head, "It's impossible to hand them over, but think about other ideas."
Zhao Lingfeng said, "We can either hand them over, or we can start a war. As for using other methods, like handing them over to the Heaven Devouring Faction and solving the problem quietly, that's impossible. I will not allow myself to do that!"
Handing over the disciples would ruin the Flying Sky Faction's reputation and people's hearts, but there was another way, like sending two disciples down the mountain to carry out a mission. The Heaven Devouring Faction would understand and kill the two disciples to avenge Xue Lengshan.
But he couldn't get over the barrier in his heart. Moreover, the truth couldn't be wrapped up in paper, it would eventually leak out.
Huang Tianyi said, "Indeed, we cannot retreat. Once we start retreating, we will have to retreat step by step until we have nowhere to retreat to, and the Flying Sky Faction will be finished. But now, even with the help of the Mystic Heart Faction, we may not be able to stop them!"
"Forget about the Mystic Heart Faction." Zhao Lingfeng waved his hand, "As the Faction Leader, you have to be responsible for the disciples. You cannot do anything rash, and the Flying Sky Faction's business cannot involve you. Otherwise, what kind of person would I be?!"
"You …" Huang Tianyi rolled her eyes at him, very satisfied with his reaction. But the more he acted like this, the more she wanted to help. She could not watch him fight the Heaven Devouring Faction alone.
Zhao Lingfeng sighed, "At this time, there really is no one who can be of use! Someone! "
A disciple in yellow came in, closed fist saluted, but did not speak.
Zhao Lingfeng said, "Send the Blue Sparrow!"
"Yes!" The disciple nodded, closed fist saluted, and left.
Zhao Lingfeng stood up and walked over to the desk. He picked up a brush and wrote a few words on a small piece of paper. Then, he pinched it into a paper ball and smeared a layer of wax on it, forming a wax ball the size of a red bean.
A moment later, the yellow-robed disciple carefully carried a birdcage in.
Within the cage was a small bird the size of a palm. Its entire body was azure in color, and it wasn't tainted by even a speck of dust. It was like an azure satin draped over its body, and it flickered with light. Its pair of small eyes were filled with oppressive spirit energy, and one could tell with a single glance that it wasn't an ordinary creature.
The yellow-robed disciple carefully handed it over and then left.
"What are you trying to do?" Huang Tianyi asked.
Zhao Lingfeng said, "Summon Yuansi back."
Huang Tian Yi laughed, "It seems like you have made up your mind."
"Yes." Zhao Lingfeng sneered and said, "If the Heaven Devouring Sect wants to fight, then fight!"
Huang Tianyi said, "The current Wu Yuansi is incredible. I heard that he obtained the Divine Demon Herb?"
Zhao Lingfeng nodded.
Huang Tianyi laughed. "Can he cultivate to perfection and ascend to First Heaven?"
"With Yuan Si's comprehension and talent, it's not impossible," Zhao Lingfeng said.
Huang Tianyi said, "Then it's better for him to stay out of this."
Zhao Lingfeng shook his head and said, "You're wrong about that. If you want to ascend, you can't let go of this opportunity. Only by going through life and death situations can you achieve true perfection. There is no other way to ascend!"
Huang Tianyi nodded lightly.
Zhao Lingfeng opened the birdcage and took out the blue sparrow.
The blue sparrow was like a statue, not moving at all. It allowed him to take out the birdcage, put it on the table, and tie the wax pellet to its claws.
Zhao Lingfeng patted the blue sparrow lightly, and it disappeared in a flash as if it had never been there. Only the empty birdcage was left on the table.
Huang Tianyi said, "We don't have such a rare bird in the Mystic Heart Sect."
Zhao Lingfeng laughed. "This is an ancient rare bird that can only be found in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Unfortunately, we can't enter. We're already lucky to have this one, so I can't give it to you."
Huang Tianyi said, "When will Yuan Si return?"
"Within a few days," Zhao Lingfeng said.
Huang Tianyi said, "Even if his cultivation level is high, he can't fight the Heaven Devouring Sect alone, can he? … Why don't we avoid them first, then slowly plan?"
Zhao Lingfeng shook his head. "Let's wait for Yuan Si to come back and discuss."
He thought very highly of Wu Yuansi. Not only did he have an extraordinary cultivation base, but he also had extraordinary wisdom. Moreover, he often came up with ingenious schemes when he least expected it.
—
Early the next morning, Zhao Lingfeng stood at the top of the mountain and looked down at the mountains. He looked down at the smoke rising from the chimneys of the Flying Heaven Sect, and an inexplicable sadness welled up within him. He did not know how long the Flying Heaven Sect would last, and whether or not it would disappear completely.
"Sect Leader." Suddenly, a clear voice was heard behind him.
He quickly turned around and was overjoyed. "Yuan Si!"
Chu Li fist saluted and smiled. "Sect Leader, what's the matter?"
"How did you come back so soon?" Zhao Lingfeng asked.
Chu Li said, "I've been in the border for a while, but I didn't return to the sect."
"Hmm —?" Zhao Lingfeng looked curious.
Chu Li told him how he obtained the Heavenly Demonic Blade, and Zhao Lingfeng was impressed. He looked at the Heavenly Demonic Blade on Chu Li's waist.
The Heavenly Demonic Blade was dull and inconspicuous.
"Is this the Heavenly Demonic Blade?" Zhao Lingfeng looked at it and shook his head. "It doesn't look like it."
Chu Li smiled. "Hu Haiya created something to suppress it, so it looks ordinary. Once I take the other blade away, this blade will show signs of abnormality!"
As he spoke, he forcefully pulled the other blade away. The two blades seemed to be glued together, and even with his extraordinary strength, he found it difficult to pull them apart.
Zhao Lingfeng's gaze suddenly changed. His eyes shone like a cold star, and no one dared to look at him directly. He stared at the Heavenly Demonic Blade, which was emitting an attractive force. The Heavenly Demonic Blade was surrounded by darkness, and the void seemed to have disappeared.
Chu Li placed the long blade on the Heavenly Demonic Blade again, and everything returned to normal.
Zhao Lingfeng tried his best to look away, and a hint of exhaustion flashed in his eyes. He looked up at Chu Li. "What a good Heavenly Demonic Blade. It really is evil!"
Chu Li nodded. "It absorbs the energy of souls, and it can kill without leaving a trace."
Zhao Lingfeng sighed. "I don't know how many people you've killed. You better be careful, don't get devoured by it."
Such a strange blade would often devour its owner. He had heard some rumors about it, and it must not be groundless.
Chu Li smiled. "I'll be careful."
"Sigh …" Zhao Lingfeng was a little worried.
Every owner of the Heavenly Demonic Blade who was devoured was full of confidence. They felt that they were different from others, and that they would not be devoured by it.
He calmed himself down and told Zhao Lingfeng about what happened yesterday.
Chu Li chuckled. "That? Easy! "
"You have a way?" Zhao Lingfeng immediately perked up.
Chu Li nodded. "Yes, and I won't let the two sects go to war."
"Tell me!" Zhao Lingfeng was elated.
Chu Li said, "Tell the Devouring Heaven Sect that Xue Lengshan was killed by someone else."
Zhao Lingfeng sighed. "It's useless. The Devouring Heaven Sect won't listen to others."
Chu Li smiled. "That person is me!"
"Nonsense!" Zhao Lingfeng was annoyed. "What do you want?"
