The three elders tensed up and glared at him.
Wei Ren did not even look at Lu Wuxun, who was paralyzed on the ground. He stared at the three elders calmly and said slowly, "Think carefully, do you want to live or die?"
"Wei Ren, are you trying to start a war between our sects?" One of the elders said in a deep voice.
Wei Ren said calmly, "It seems like you are not satisfied. Don't blame me for being merciless!"
"Wait!" The elder in the middle said hurriedly.
Wei Ren looked at him calmly.
The elder in the middle said quickly, "This is a misunderstanding!"
Wei Ren said, "What a pity!"
He appeared behind the three elders in a flash. Before they could move, his right palm had already struck their backs.
The three of them were frozen in place. They could only open their mouths and spit out blood and flesh.
The three of them shone with bright red light, but it could not stop Wei Ren's palm energy from destroying them.
Wei Ren said, "I gave you a chance, but you did not cherish it!"
He appeared in front of them again and struck three times.
"Pop!" The three palms hit their chests at the same time, as if they had struck at the same time.
Wei Ren shook his head and sighed. The three of them slowly fell to the ground, dead. No matter how powerful Heaven's Equal was, it was useless in front of absolute strength. They could not be more dead.
"Ancestor Wei …" Zheng Yuanli stood up and cupped his fists.
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at Wei Ren doubtfully.
Wei Ren said, "I was ordered by the Sect Master to secretly follow you. I did not expect Heaven's Equal to be so daring. How are your injuries?"
"I am fine." Zheng Yuanli said quickly, "Did the Sect Master know that Heaven's Equal was going to kill me?"
Wei Ren nodded.
Zheng Yuanli was not stupid. He said quickly, "Does it have something to do with the trip back earlier?"
"Master Li had already predicted that you would be ambushed." Wei Ren came to the three elders' side and lightly slashed the sword at his waist. Three heads fell to the ground. He then searched their chests for their tokens and some medicine bottles. He put them in a cloth bag and said, "That is why he sent me to follow you. I did not want to alert them, so I did not get too close. In the end, you were injured."
Zheng Yuanli said, "Grandmaster Wei, what are you talking about? If not for grandmaster, I would really be dead. Is the Equal Heaven Sect crazy?"
He couldn't believe that the Equal Heaven Sect really dared to kill him. Were they trying to start a war with the Southern Heaven Gate?
"They are indeed crazy now," Wei Ren said.
He couldn't understand why the Equal Heaven Sect dared to do this. They actually sent people to kill the disciples of the Southern Sky Gate. Weren't they afraid that the Southern Sky Gate would retaliate? Don't forget that the Southern Heavenly Gate now had a worshiper who was proficient in divining the secrets of the heavens. It wasn't like before. No matter how secretive the Equal Heavenly Gate was, they couldn't hide it from the Southern Heavenly Gate!
They were so sure that the Southern Sky Gate wouldn't dare to retaliate, what a joke!
Wei Ren straightened his back, dusted his hands, and picked up the sack. "Your mission is complete. Let's go!"
"Grandmaster, should we hide it?" Zheng Yuanli hesitated.
If they left just like that, the people of the Equal Heaven Sect would soon find out that one of their experts had died. Moreover, they would be able to recognize that it was the martial arts of the Southern Heaven Sect. This would definitely incite a conflict between the two sects, and the consequences would be dire.
"There's no need," Wei Ren said calmly. "We need to let them know how powerful we are."
"Yes." Zheng Yuanli nodded.
While he was worried, he was also delighted. This was the Southern Heavenly Gate, fearless. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. If he dared to kill a disciple of the Southern Heavenly Gate, the Southern Heavenly Gate would dare to kill him, regardless of which sect it was!
The two suddenly disappeared and appeared at the bottom of the Road of Conscience in the next moment. They quickly climbed the steps and entered the Conscience Hall.
There were three people sitting in the Conscience Hall.
In the middle was the Gate Leader Xu Qiang. On his left and right were Chu Li and Sima Xing.
After Wei Ren and Zheng Yuanli entered, they fist saluted. "Reporting to the Gate Leader, three masters of the Equal Heaven Sect used the Crimson Pole Sect's Lu Wuxun as bait to kill Yuanli. They have been executed!"
"Alright, thank you, Senior Brother Wei!" Xu Qiang fist saluted. "Go and rest."
Wei Ren shook his head. "Gate Leader, the Equal Heaven Sect will go crazy. How are we going to deal with them?"
"There's no rush," Xu Qiang said.
Wei Ren said, "From what I understand, they will retaliate soon!"
"I've already sent a few Senior Brothers to prepare." Xu Qiang smiled.
Wei Ren looked at Chu Li in surprise.
Chu Li smiled and nodded.
Wei Ren came to a realization. "High Official Li, you've already predicted how they will retaliate?"
Chu Li said, "I've already deduced part of it. However, the deduction technique can't be one hundred percent accurate. It's inevitable that there will be some mistakes."
"Of course." Wei Ren nodded.
They all knew this. The world was ever-changing. Fate was like a river. No one knew when there would be external interference. There would be sudden and unpredictable changes. The deduction technique was not perfect.
Xu Qiang said, "The Equal Heaven Sect no longer has Bao Cheng. It's impossible for them to be as unscrupulous as before. This time, we'll teach them a lesson and make them behave!"
As he spoke, he was in high spirits.
Chu Li smiled.
Wei Ren said in a low voice, "It's time to suppress their arrogance. Otherwise, they'll think that we're afraid!"
Zheng Yuanli looked at Chu Li curiously and fist saluted. "Thank you, High Official Li!"
Chu Li smiled and shook his head. "You're welcome, Junior Brother Zheng. For the next month, don't go out!"
"Alright." Zheng Yuanli nodded without hesitation.
After they left, Chu Li let out a sigh of relief.
Xu Qiang smiled. "As expected of the divination technique. It's so accurate!"
He had doubts about Chu Li's previous actions. It was a little too miraculous for him to be able to see through the disciples' fate with just one glance. Then, he got the sect's top-notch masters to secretly protect them. It was truly beyond imagination.
From Zheng Yuanli's point of view, the deduction was right.
Chu Li said, "You flatter me. However, the Equal Heaven Sect is quite powerful. Don't you need help?"
"Not for now." Xu Qiang said, "High Official Li, didn't you already predict their actions?"
Chu Li smiled. "I'm afraid that it'll mess things up if it's not accurate."
"Don't doubt the person you're using. Don't doubt the person you're using. Don't worry, High Official Li. Even if you're wrong, I won't say anything!" Xu Qiang said seriously.
It was inevitable that there would be mistakes in the deduction. However, it would be foolish to give up because of that.
The function of divination was beyond imagination. Now that the sect finally had such a talent, how could they not put him to good use?
Chu Li fist saluted and showed a grateful expression.
Now that things had come to this, he could not leave even if he wanted to. He could only return to the Great Mercy Temple after settling this matter. Otherwise, if the Southern Heaven Sect was implicated or even destroyed because of him, he would be guilty and would feel guilty.
He always had a clear conscience. Once his confidence was destroyed, his spirit and willpower would be damaged. If he lost his state of mind, he would not be able to improve his martial arts in the future. He might as well stay in the Grandmaster's Boundary and rule the world.
The next morning, he and Xu Qiang continued to sit in Conscience Hall.
As soon as they sat down, footsteps were heard. It was three elders and a middle-aged man who strode in.
The four of them were proud and in high spirits. At the same time, they were surrounded by a murderous aura. It was obvious that they had just killed someone.
The four of them fist saluted.
Xu Qiang waved his hand. "Senior Brother Meng, how was it?"
"Just like what the sect leader said, there were indeed masters from the Equal Heaven Sect who came to kill Young Zhou. A total of five masters were killed by us." One of the elders stroked his beard and said proudly, "They were unprepared. They had to die even if they didn't!"
Usually, it was the Equal Heaven Sect who ambushed others. This time, it was them who counterattacked the Equal Heaven Sect's masters.
As soon as he finished speaking, another five elders strode in with smiles on their faces.
