"Wuuu …" Jin Wuguang let out a muffled groan. His mouth and nose were filled with blood, and he looked extremely agitated.
"Bastard! Bastard! Niu Youdao, you will die a horrible death … "Cao Yu 'er, who was being dragged away, howled like a madman. Her howl was filled with despair.
The two Sect Masters didn't expect Niu Youdao to use such a vicious method. He wanted to completely destroy the True Spiritual Institute and the Flying Flower Pavilion!
The dignified Sect Master was hung on the city wall, and so were the other teachers. Would the disciples of the True Spiritual Institute and the Flying Flower Pavilion come to save them?
Save? How could they save them? Almost all of the sect's experts had been killed. Could those little disciples with mediocre cultivation rescue them? The lives of the Sect Master and the other teachers were in their hands. How could they save them? Did they come here to die?
Find other experts to save them? Niu Youdao wasn't an ordinary cultivator. He was a cultivator who could control a certain amount of power in the secular world. People without a certain background wouldn't easily get involved in such a matter. Moreover, they sent so many people to kill him but still failed. Even the Pill Ranking No.7 expert, Zong Yuan, died here. Who would dare to get involved?
Don't save them? The cultivation world was different from the secular world. Sects, masters, and inheritances were the foundation of the cultivation world!
The consequences of not saving them were obvious. In the future, the disciples of the True Spiritual Institute and the Flying Flower Pavilion would never be able to raise their heads in the cultivation world again. Without the confidence to compete with others, the monkeys would scatter when the tree falls. No one would have the face to mention that they were disciples of the Flying Flower Pavilion and the True Spiritual Institute. The two sects would disappear like smoke.
This was worse than killing them. The efforts of the previous generations were destroyed in the hands of this generation.
Originally, even if the two of them died, as long as the two sects still had people, there would be a chance for them to rise again.
Niu Youdao wanted to destroy the foundation that the two sects relied on. He wanted to completely disintegrate the two sects and erase them from the cultivation world!
How could the two Sect Masters not be agitated?
The group of cultivators didn't understand Niu Youdao's intention at first. Later on, they gradually understood. After all, they were all cultivators.
"Make them shut up and treat them properly. Don't let them die so easily!"
Seeing Cao Yu'er cursing non-stop and cursing Niu Youdao to death, Xia Hua waved her hand and shouted. The disciples immediately told Cao Yu'er to shut up. Cao Yu'er, who couldn't make a sound, looked up to the sky and wailed. Her tears were mixed with blood. She looked up at the sky and her heart was bleeding!
The sect leaders of the three sects were delighted. They felt that this was how things should be. If they didn't exterminate the two sects, they wouldn't be able to wipe out this hatred. This could be considered an explanation to the dead and the living.
Also, the three sects were in favor of this and cooperated without hesitation. Regardless of whether they came for Niu Youdao or not, it was the Thatched Cottage Villa that the three sects were defending. Exterminating the Flying Flower Pavilion and the True Spiritual Institute would greatly increase the reputation of the three sects in the cultivation world. This was definitely an achievement that the three sects could bring out!
The people of Great Zen Mountain didn't have any objections to this. They were all in favor of it. It was good to exterminate these two sects that were always thinking about South Prefecture. This way, they wouldn't cause trouble for no reason. However, this method was a bit too vicious. They wanted to eliminate the root of the problem. This was even more vicious than fighting and killing!
Huang Lie said, "Brother, you hung them on the city wall. Everyone knows that they are working for the Imperial Court. Will the Imperial Court save them or not? You are slapping the Imperial Court's face! "
Niu Youdao asked coldly, "Sect Master Huang, are you speaking for the Imperial Court?"
Fine, this tone was going to make it sound like they were working together. Huang Lie waved his hand and said, "That's not what I meant. What if the Imperial Court finds an excuse to ask you for them? Are you going to openly defy the decree? "
Niu Youdao: "Do I have to give them to them just because they want to? They are trying to kill me, and you want me to send them back? If the Imperial Court wants to save face, then don't say this. The real face-slapping has yet to come! "
Huang Lie smiled faintly and didn't say anything more. Since you like to mess with the Imperial Court, then mess with the Imperial Court. Don't blame Great Zen Mountain for watching from the side!
The people of Great Zen Mountain all had strange thoughts.
Guan Fangyi, who was watching from the side, knew that Niu Youdao rarely fought with force. This time, he was determined to fight with the Imperial Court!
Shang Shuqing, who was listening from the side, had a melancholic expression. She rarely participated in Niu Youdao's matters. This was the first time she saw how cold and heartless Niu Youdao was in the cultivation world. However, she also knew that the merciful did not command an army.
The flowery clothed man had been watching from the side and didn't want to interfere. He just wanted to see how this junior, who had risen so quickly in a few short years, dealt with things.
The masked man in black who had cleaned up the corpses of his companions returned with Zong Yuan's body. People with status received special treatment after death. They weren't dealt with hastily.
"Who is this person?" Xia Hua asked.
Guan Fangyi: "An expert ranked seventh on the Pill Rankings, one of the people who attacked the mountain villa."
"Seventh … He is Zong Yuan?" Xia Hua paled. Fei Changliu and Zheng Jiuxiao were shocked. Zong Yuan also died here?
They were busy fighting and didn't pay attention to the battle between the flowery clothed man and Zong Yuan.
Guan Fangyi sighed and nodded.
The three sect masters looked at Niu Youdao. They finally had a new understanding of Niu Youdao's strength. He even killed Zong Yuan!
Xia Hua asked again, "Do you want to hang him on the city wall as a deterrent?"
The flowery clothed man said coldly, "If you hang his body on the city wall, many people will dislike you. Moreover, those people are people you can't afford to offend. Not just anyone can be humiliated. I advise you not to cause trouble for yourselves. "
Niu Youdao nodded slightly. "Let's find a place to bury him properly."
Xia Hua also knew that she had misspoken. She hurriedly called for the disciples to carry Zong Yuan's body away …
After all the commotion, the sun had already set. The tired birds returned to the forest. A group of people stood outside the mountain villa, bathing in the afterglow of the setting sun. Outside the mountain villa, people were reporting the situation.
The casualties of the battle were sorted out. The three sects had suffered significant losses. Nearly three thousand disciples had died or were injured.
The garrison had suffered even more. Facing the attack of tens of thousands of cultivators, nearly seven thousand of them had died or were injured!
And this was without any direct confrontation. Yuan Gang had hurriedly ordered the garrison to retreat when he saw that the situation wasn't right. Otherwise, the casualties would have been even greater. They would have been easily defeated by the two sects.
The True Spiritual Institute and Flying Flower Pavilion had also suffered heavy losses. After counting, there were more than nine thousand corpses. Most of them had fallen to the rain of arrows. The two sects had only managed to escape in the end. There were also several hundred who had been captured alive after being injured.
The results showed that even though they had won this battle, they didn't have much of an advantage in terms of casualties.
This proved that the Flying Flower Pavilion and True Spiritual Institute were indeed far stronger than the two sects. Without the support of tens of thousands of soldiers with long-range weapons, they wouldn't have been able to withstand the attacks of the two sects.
From a certain perspective, the imperial court had an absolute chance of winning this time!
After losing so many men, Niu Youdao let out a sigh of relief. He faced the three sect masters and said, "Without a doubt, this is the imperial court's doing. Everyone, what do you think we should do? Should we swallow this humiliation, or should we retaliate with an eye for an eye? "
Guan Fangyi knew that things weren't looking good. She knew that Niu Youdao was determined to clash with the imperial court this time. For him to say such words, it seemed like he wasn't going to let the imperial court off easily!
The three sect masters looked at each other. The other party didn't manage to gain any advantage. What else could they do other than drop the matter? An eye for an eye, they weren't a match for them either!
Xia Hua touched her injured shoulder and showed it to Niu Youdao. She asked cautiously, "Daoye, what do you want?"
Niu Youdao rested his hands on his sword and raised his chin slightly. He laughed coldly and said, "They're already fighting their way to our doorstep. How can we remain silent? Since they like to fight, we can only play along. If we don't beat the imperial court up this time, we'll let them have a taste of what it's like. If they think we're pushovers, they can do whatever they want with us. Monkey! "
Yuan Gang took a step forward. "Daoye."
Niu Youdao's ten fingers tapped lightly on his sword. "Xue Xiao is quite daring. He dared to release the criminals I sent over without a trial from the imperial court! Immediately send word to the Prince. Provoke him at the border of Dingzhou and create an excuse to send troops! Do not disperse the troops and supplies that were sent back to Jinzhou. Immediately regroup and change the route to Dingzhou. Attack Xue Xiao's troops. Beat them hard for me. We must show the power of our Nanzhou troops! Tell his highness to let go of his appetite as soon as possible. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity, let go of as much territory as he can. As long as he can swallow it, it will be his, I won't easily spit it out! "
Once these words were spoken, everyone paled. Even the man in the flowery robe was visibly shocked. Was he trying to have Nanzhou declare war on the Yan imperial court?
Shang Shuqing was dumbfounded. Yin 'er was still happily eating her food. In any case, she didn't understand what he was saying.
The people of Great Zen Mountain couldn't hold themselves back anymore. They had just settled down in Nanzhou and already met with trouble. They had just been frightened by the imperial court and hadn't calmed down. Now you want to find trouble and declare war on the imperial court. What kind of joke was this? If you want to go crazy, don't drag us down with you!
Yuan Gang nodded. He didn't waste words and turned to do as he was told.
Huang Lie's face darkened. He gritted his teeth and said, "Little Brother, are you joking?"
Niu Youdao tilted his head to look at him and asked, "The blood that the imperial court has created hasn't dissipated yet. Do I look like I'm joking?"
Huang Lie's face was filled with anger. He wanted to tell him, if you want to fight, then fight. The Great Zen Mountain won't keep you company. Without the cultivators of the Great Zen Mountain to protect the army, let's see how you fight!
Yet when he saw Niu Youdao's cold and murderous gaze, his heart shook. He instinctively looked at the black-robed man and the flowery robe man.
Guan Fangyi's mouth twitched. She understood. She finally understood now. So the hat of "colluding from the inside and outside" was waiting for them. No wonder they kept on reminding Great Zen Mountain. Great Zen Mountain was under a lot of pressure right now. If they weren't careful, they would wear that hat!
Huang Lie swallowed the words that reached his mouth and said in a low voice, "Little Brother, you should understand that it is true that Nanzhou has a strong army. But if you want to fight against the imperial court with the power of one state, it is like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. Have you thought about the consequences? "
