The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 430 Blood Has Gone Cold
Thinking of this, Wang Wu sighed, broke the seal on the wine jar, drank more than half of it in one gulp, and then said with a wry smile, "Sir, why beat around the bush? Is it possible that in thirty years, the new magistrate of Dragon Head City won't be my Senior Sister Qin?"

Bai Yu's face remained expressionless, and he said nothing, but this was tantamount to acquiescing.

Undoubtedly, the confrontation between the two camps has become much more intense in the past seventy or eighty years, so much so that even in a remote and harsh place like Dragon Head City, the struggle has become increasingly fierce.

Because if Senior Sister Qin has the help of Wang Wu and his three thousand stewards, the new stewards of the Frost Lord's camp will definitely be no match for her.

Therefore, we must first get rid of him and his three thousand men.

But the question now is, does he dare to choose?
If he really dares to take three thousand men to the Vermilion Bird Immortal Alliance to seek peace and quiet, does he really think Senior Sister Qin's sword isn't sharp enough?

We've invested so much in training and placing you in a position of power, but when the two camps clash at the crucial moment, you can't hold them off. What use are you then?

It's no longer possible to remain uninvolved!
At this moment, Wang Wu suddenly envied Xu Taiping and felt that Xu Taiping was really awesome. He had been in the Hidden Origin Society for six hundred years and still managed to remain unscathed. This was not just being low-key, but being incredibly awesome!

The infighting between these camps is terrifying to even think about.

He had naively thought he could live a carefree life in Dragon Head City for the rest of his life.

In addition, he underestimated Shuangjun. What kind of person was Shuangjun? How could he be so easily embarrassed by a few sweet words?
Looking back, Bai Yu directly gave him two second-tier Foundation Establishment formations, effectively severing all ties and debts.

More than 80 years ago, they had already begun the next round of competition for leadership.

Even, even—the five elements of human nature involved in theft, money laundering, and thievery!
Is this a coincidence?
For a moment, Wang Wu was truly terrified. He even considered following Xu Taiping's example and resigning his post to live a carefree life.

Unfortunately, it was too late, too late, and impossible, because he had three thousand subordinates and three thousand beloved relatives and friends.

Without saying anything more, he stood up, clasped his hands in a fist and said, "My lord, I choose the former. I will kill all those involved and destroy all the evidence!"

"Alright, I'll give you three years to clean up this mess."

Bai Yu said expressionlessly, his gaze turning as cold as a knife.

From this moment on, the two sides are enemies.

There is no room for fence-sitters or opportunists in this world.

When those above fight it out, those below have to fight even more fiercely.

Because, I have no choice in the matter!
At this moment, when Wang Wu thought of Gray Elder, all that remained in his heart was fear!

"Here!"

Wang Wu clasped his hands in a fist salute again and was about to leave, but Bai Yu suddenly spoke up, "Drink your wine before you go."

"Here!"

Wang Wu picked up the half-jar of spirit wine and offered a toast to Bai Yu from afar. The latter's expression remained blank, only the wine jar in his hand swayed slightly.

This situation truly filled Wang Wu with complex emotions.

As the saying goes, "I urge you to drink another cup of wine, for once you step out this door, you will find no familiar faces."

but--

Not long after Wang Wu returned to his cave with a heavy heart, a message from Senior Sister Qin arrived.

"Come out and see me!"

Good guy!
He dared not delay and quickly came out, but this time Senior Sister Qin did not even enter Dragon Head City. Instead, she stayed outside the city, her face as cold as ice, and she was no longer as gentle as before.

The moment they met, Wang Wu felt like she wanted to slap him, but he held back. Even so, he still received the same scolding he deserved!

"I received the news too late! How could you be so unwise! Don't you even have this much common sense? Don't you have a brain? Since the Hidden Origin Society uses the five elements of the human world as the base currency for transactions, it can't be that simple! You're as stupid as a pig! The excellent situation that Master set up was almost ruined by you!"

Wang Wu remained silent, too terrified to utter a sound!
"Tell me, Bai Yu must have used this to threaten you. What conditions did you agree to?"

"Reporting to Senior Sister, he said that Dragon Head City has a debt owed to the Jade Cauldron Immortal Alliance and wanted me to lead people to help the Vermilion Bird Immortal Alliance. However, I chose to destroy the evidence of the debt and kill all those involved. Please help me with this matter, Senior Sister!"

"Hmph! At least you're not completely stupid! But you're still naive! I can't help you with this. The only thing I can do is check the authenticity of this debt. But do you know that this could very well be a trap set by Bai Yu? The moment you dare to wreak havoc in the Jade Cauldron Immortal Alliance, they'll dare to report you to headquarters for violating the neutrality rules of the Hidden Origin Society. You'll be expelled from the Hidden Origin Society anyway, and at most you won't have to go to the Great Wilderness Prison."

Senior Sister Qin gave a cold laugh.

"What should I do? Please, senior sister, show me the way!" Wang Wu smiled bitterly to himself. This was the consequence of finding a backer.

"The right path is simple, and you have two options. The first is to join Bai Yu, take your three thousand men and join the Vermilion Bird Immortal Alliance as mercenaries, and see if Frost Lord can protect you?"

"Senior sister! How could I dare? How could I betray Master? Master's kindness to me is as heavy as a mountain!"

Wang Wu knelt down with a thud. What a joke! How could this senior sister be even more vicious than Bai Yu?

"Is that so? Then you can only choose the second option: go and confess to the Hidden Origin Society headquarters. If you can explain the whole story clearly, such as who instructed you to do it, then you might be able to reduce your punishment." Senior Sister Qin said meaningfully.

Wang Wu was stunned. He understood that Senior Sister Qin meant to drag Bai Yu into the mess and then turn around and bite back.

Anyway, it doesn't matter whether Bai Yu did it or not. What matters is that this matter has already come to light, and the Yin Yuan Society headquarters will definitely come down to investigate. Therefore, Bai Yu cannot serve as the head of the Dragon Head City branch for the time being, so Senior Sister Qin will have a greater chance to become the head!
However, this came at the cost of sacrificing the interests, and even the lives, of Wang Wu and his group.

Regardless of whether the 500,000 strands of human five elements that the Thieves Sect switched for Wang Wu were the work of Shuang Jun, even if they were, Bai Yu has enough power to prove his innocence.

Once Bai Yu proves his innocence, Wang Wu will be accused of framing his superior.

He would completely offend the Frost Lord's faction, and there would be no good outcome for him.

Why!

At this moment, Wang Wu finally understood why Senior Sister Qin was killed by Gray Elder in his Level 27 Divine Calculation Prediction!
Honestly, given the current situation, it's really pushing Wang to the point where he's completely helpless.

Besides killing this Senior Sister Qin, what other way out does he have?
Alternatively, they could join Frost Lord's camp, but Bai Yu's requirements were simple: all three thousand people, including himself, had to go to the Vermilion Bird Immortal Alliance and give up their positions. Without the protection of the Hidden Origin Bell and without the status of Hidden Origin Society deacons, Senior Sister Qin could kill them one by one without making a sound.

Grass!

Why has it come to this? Why is the internal strife within your Hidden Origin Society so cruel?

Is it really true that one cannot be soft-hearted in political struggles?

"Senior sister, is there a third way?"

Wang Wu pleaded bitterly, he really didn't want to kill her. Killing an eighth-rank elder of the Hidden Origin Society was a serious crime, and even Shuang Jun couldn't protect him.

Unless, he kills all three thousand of his beloved relatives and friends first.

That old gray-haired man, curse his ancestors for eighty-eight generations!

"Junior brother, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make things difficult for you, but you made a mistake, and when you make a mistake, you have to take responsibility. You can't be that naive, can you?"

Senior Sister Qin's tone softened, but it only made Wang Wu more desperate.

But he was still trying. He felt that he could even show Elder Hui his Fire Spirit Pill by revealing some secrets—no, all of them—to prove that he had more potential to be trained than this Senior Sister Qin, more potential to be a henchman, a slave, as long as he wasn't thrown into this doomed cannon fodder situation.

"Senior sister, I would like to see Master again, is that alright?"

"I'm sorry, no, you are not qualified to see Master, and Master does not want to see you! Make a decision soon, either you turn yourself in, or I will personally turn yourself in first thing tomorrow morning and report you to the Hidden Origin Society headquarters for colluding with the Thieves' Sect and illegally manufacturing and trading the Five Elements of the Human World! You decide what to do."

After saying that, Senior Sister Qin turned and left.

Wang Wu knelt there, and his comfortable state of mind for the past hundred years was finally awakened by the biting cold wind!

After a long while, Bai Yu appeared silently behind him, still holding the jar of spirit wine in his hands. He looked in the direction where Senior Sister Qin had gone, laughed a few times, shook his head, said nothing, just patted Wang Wu on the shoulder, and left as well.

Yes, this is an open secret, and it's also Wang Wu's dead end.

Although both sides belong to the Hidden Origin Society, Gray Elder and Frost Lord are definitely vying for a more important position.

Wang Wu knelt outside the city for a long time, remaining kneeling there.

Many people were watching from the city wall. Snake Nineteen came after hearing the news, wanting to persuade him, but Wang Wu just waved his hand and told them to get lost. He said that the trouble was caused by Snake Nineteen, but it was pointless to say anything now. The blame was on him!
But no one knew that after Bai Yu left, Wang Wu had already replaced his kneeling self with a wisp of top-quality hair.

Meanwhile, his true form had already gone after Senior Sister Qin.

There was no way around it; he was a petty hoodlum who had escaped from the Great Wilderness Prison. He lacked experience and wasn't meticulous enough. He couldn't see through the underlying logic of things like Xu Taiping, and even the Four Clowns couldn't offer him advice.

Moreover, their strength is so weak, yet this cultivation world is filled with such powerful and abnormal beings.

What can he do?
It was indeed his fault this time, but he didn't make the mistake intentionally. Why can't he be given a chance to make amends?

Why do you insist on forcing me to kill you?!

why?
Wang Wu sneered inwardly; his blood was turning cold, but the Fire Spirit Pill was beginning to burn hot.

There was no other way; he had nowhere left to retreat!

As for whether or not they can kill this Senior Sister Qin?
Wang Wu didn't know, but one thing was certain: it was because of the existence of the Blood Curse.

Gray Elder could no longer use his level 27 divine calculations to predict this event.

At worst, we'll all perish together!
