Qin Shi: I went astray in the Heavenly Sect
Chapter 138 Heavenly Sect's Methods, An "Earthquake"
Chapter 138 Heavenly Sect's Methods: An "Earthquake"
"What did that person look like?"
Mu Xue's face was gloomy. The Azure Dragon Gang had provoked a Grandmaster-level expert, which was something he and Amber had not expected. Otherwise, they would never have gotten involved in this mess.
Now that the two of them have arrived, if we were to retreat immediately, we would lose face, not to mention anything else.
Seeing the two experts from the Hidden Sun Organization change their expressions drastically, He Wanli frowned slightly, and his sinister eyes flashed. Up to now, less than an incense stick's time had passed, and the boy's words still echoed in his ears.
"You can also notify your backers."
Looking back now, what the other party said before was not an exaggeration. With this thought in mind, He Wanli's face became even more gloomy, which meant that his life and death were only in the hands of the other party.
Before He Wanli could answer, a voice suddenly rang in the hearts of Mu Xue and Hu Po.
"Are you two looking for me?"
Mu Xue and Hu Po's pupils contracted sharply, and their bodies stiffened. Unlike He Wanli, who knew nothing, Mu Xue and Hu Po had traveled through the Seven Kingdoms for many years before joining Bi Ri, so they knew much more about the methods of the martial arts world.
There are two methods of transmitting sound. One is called "Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission," which amplifies the sound using internal force, allowing it to travel several miles. The other, which they are experiencing now, is called "Celestial Sound Transmission." It can condense sound into a single line, allowing the desired listener to hear it while remaining undetected by others.
"A master of Taoism!"
Almost instantly, the two of them realized what was happening, and then they began to look around, seemingly searching for something.
Seeing the strange reaction of the two, He Wanli, who had been watching them closely, looked at them with some suspicion. What was wrong with the two of them?
"My lords, what brings you here?"
"They are looking for me."
The void around them trembled slightly, and a young man and a girl walked out.
Upon seeing this strange phenomenon, Mu Xue and Hu Po felt a chill run down their spines. Like two cats with their fur standing on end, they jumped back abruptly, their gazes grim, their bodies beginning to tremble slightly.
The two looked at each other, and this time they didn't say anything, but their eyes seemed to say everything.
This suddenly appearing youth possessed a very high level of cultivation, even surpassing that of Li Mu, the great general of the Zhao state.
He Wanli and the gang members in front of him were also dumbfounded. To ordinary people, the Heavenly Sect's "Harmony with the World" technique seemed more like a divine method.
Just like in another timeline, when Xiaomeng made her appearance at Xiaoshengxianzhuang during the sword-fighting debate, it almost made everyone's jaw drop.
The same applies now.
As Mu Xue and Hu Po looked at the person in front of them, they felt their hearts begin to beat rapidly beyond their control.
"Who are you?"
The boy turned around and looked at the two of them, his cool gaze completely indifferent.
Are you sure you really want to know my background?
A faint killing intent emerged, instantly plunging the two into an icy abyss. As people of the martial world, they knew all too well one thing.
Sometimes the more you know, the faster you die, especially when some people find things troublesome.
Mu Xue and Hu Po both swallowed unconsciously.
Amber clenched his fists, forcing himself to calm down, and then said, "We are the people who shield the sun, and we are under the command of Prime Minister Guo."
Faced with this young man whose level of understanding was so profound and whose depths were unknown, they had no choice but to bring up Guo Kai.
Upon hearing the name mentioned, the boy's gaze remained calm and serene. He simply nodded slightly.
"so what?"
Upon hearing this answer, Mu Xue and Hu Po's expressions darkened; for them, this was not a good answer.
Judging from the other party's words and expressions, this young man did not take Bi Ri seriously, nor was he afraid of Guo Kai.
"Are you sure you want to oppose the Prime Minister?"
Guo Kai wielded immense power in the Zhao Kingdom. Even the Grand General Li Mu, a Grandmaster, dared not openly confront him. No matter how much they gambled, this young Grandmaster would not easily offend Guo Kai, the man who held absolute power in the Zhao Kingdom.
"To oppose?"
The boy raised his eyes and sighed softly.
"I'm curious why you have the misconception that I would be wary of that prime minister. Is it because Li Mu was loyal to Zhao and didn't want Zhao to perish, so he chose to endure and didn't kill him? You naively think that a Grandmaster can't kill him, right?"
Upon hearing this, the two men's expressions changed. Now they were certain that the other party truly did not take Guo Kaifang seriously.
Although there is some truth to what the other party said, Guo Kai's reliance is not only on his status as prime minister and the Hidden Sun Organization. He also has the shadow of the Qin State behind him, such as Jing Ni of the Luo Net, who is also a grandmaster-level expert.
"This world is vast, and among the seven kingdoms, you are not the only Grandmaster-level expert."
Thinking of the grandmaster-level expert from Luo Wang, Amber gradually calmed down, intending to force the other party to back down.
But the next moment, darkness fell.
This darkness is not caused by the passage of time, but by some mysterious force stripping everything of its original color.
"The world has lost its color!"
"You really are from the Heavenly Sect."
The young man pointed his finger in mid-air, and Mu Xue and Hu Po felt their internal energy flowing uncontrollably through their meridians, their blood stagnating. The next moment, with a bang, the two experts at the Innate Realm exploded and died.
Looking at the young man before them, the two of them never understood why he showed no fear of the power behind them and chose to kill them.
Seeing this, He Wanli, who was standing to the side, became noticeably breathless. In his mind, Mu Xue and Hu Po, who were already considered experts, did not last a single round against this young man and were easily killed by him with a single finger.
This scene was so horrifying that it sent chills down the spines of everyone present, leaving them in a daze.
The boy stopped looking at the fate of the two experts from the Hidden Sun Organization, and instead looked at the burly man in the crowd, then asked, "Is it him?"
The sound was still not loud, but everyone present stood still, or rather, they didn't not want to move, but simply couldn't.
In the crowd, Liu Ergou, who had been extremely arrogant at first, was filled with fear when he saw the fate of the two experts who had previously covered the sun. He couldn't even imagine that such people had come to kill him.
"It's him!!"
"That's him!!"
Xiaolin looked at the man in front of her, her tone filled with hatred. If it weren't for this man, her uncle would not have died, and she and Yao Yi would not have ended up in that situation.
Upon hearing this, the boy flicked his finger, and a sword light flashed. He then gripped the other's body, and with another bang, the huge body was shattered by the sword energy.
Upon seeing this, Xiaolin only glanced at it before burying her head behind the boy.
A moment later, the boy carried the girl, whose legs had gone limp, out of the Green Dragon Gang's base.
A short while later, a figure rushed over from the Azure Dragon Gang's base. Upon seeing the young man, the person said with some helplessness, "Young Master, Mu Xue and Amber are dead, the Azure Dragon Gang has been wiped out, and Handan will probably be out of control."
The boy said without turning his head, "That's their business."
After a moment of silence, the boy spoke again: "That Liu Ergou once said that joining the Green Dragon Gang requires offering a head as a pledge of allegiance."
The newcomer sighed softly. "Gangs have their own rules; that's unavoidable."
The boy gave a cold laugh.
"So it's better to kill them all."
The visitor remained silent. Such was the way of the world; it seemed everyone was caught between killing and being killed.
"What are your plans for Miss Xiaolin, young master?"
"You want her to stay by your side?"
"Through this experience, Miss Lin has come to realize the darkness of this world, which already makes her a promising talent. Perhaps..."
The fifth floor of Zuimenglou.
As the black-armored figure removed her armor, revealing a stunningly beautiful face, Xiaolin stared blankly. She never imagined that the ruthless person who had just attacked her was actually a girl.
"You are Ni Chang!!"
As if remembering something, Xiaolin couldn't help but exclaim.
In Handan, there are three most famous brothels and dance halls: Zuimenglou, Yuhuage, and Wanhuafang. Each of these places has its own top courtesan. For example, the top courtesan of Yuhuage is Xue Nu. She has also heard of the top courtesan of Zuimenglou, who is a girl named Ni Chang.
The person before her was extremely beautiful, her looks were in no way inferior to the Snow Maiden of Jade Flower Pavilion, and her charm was even greater than the Snow Maiden's. She almost instantly confirmed Ni Chang's identity.
"Wow, little sister has good taste."
“I am indeed Ni Chang.”
The fifth floor is Ni Chang's exclusive space, where you can hardly see anyone, and of course, no one is foolish enough to bother her.
So the three of them easily returned to this place.
In front of the window, there is a low table with several exquisite teacups and a glass pot on it.
With her delicate hands, Ni Chang held the teapot and poured out three bowls of tea. She placed one bowl in front of Xiu Yuan, another beside Xiao Lin, and then picked up the last bowl.
At this moment, it was already dawn.
Looking at the city outside, which was gradually waking up from its slumber, Ni Chang's eyes held a complex expression.
She has been in Handan for several years, and this is the first time something like last night has happened to her!
For the first time, so many people have died, and the gang has been completely eradicated; Bi Ri suffered heavy losses, with its three pillars all perishing; Marquis Chunping was assassinated, and his mansion was engulfed in flames; Gongzi Jia's confidant was killed. Compared to the previous minor skirmishes, this time, Handan has truly experienced an "earthquake"!
"Young master, Handan is unlikely to be peaceful today."
The boy, sitting to one side and looking down at the street, became quiet and said nothing more.
Suddenly, a presence entered his senses. Ni Chang narrowed her eyes, about to take action, but the next moment, she looked at the boy sitting opposite her. With her master here, she seemed to have no need to worry about these things.
A moment later, a figure in a green robe climbed in through a fifth-floor window.
Upon seeing the three people inside, the newcomer reached out and touched the corner of his eye.
"Young master, did I arrive at the wrong time?"
Upon hearing this, Ni Chang gave the other person a rather strange look, because she recognized the person in front of her.
"You're not from Nightfall?"
Upon hearing this, the newcomer was taken aback. He then looked over and, seeing Ni Chang, asked with some curiosity, "This young lady, we haven't met before, have we?"
Ni Chang glanced at Xiu Yuan, who was sitting silently to the side, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "You covered for that white-clad youth's escape in Xinzheng North City; your courage is commendable!"
Upon hearing this, the newcomer's heart skipped a beat. Only a few of them, the parties involved, knew about the incident in the north of Xinzheng City. The person in front of him was definitely not that boy. In other words, the person in front of him could only be one person: his opponent from that time.
With an expression of utter disbelief, the newcomer said, "You wouldn't be..."
Ni Chang covered her mouth and smiled, a hint of coldness flashing in her curved eyebrows, causing the newcomer to subconsciously take two steps back.
He then looked at the young man beside him and said with a wry smile, "Young master, this young lady isn't one of ours either, is she?"
Ni Chang looked up and said with a smile, "What do you think?"
Xiaolin stood to the side, completely bewildered, because she didn't recognize the people who came. Ni Chang seemed to have another identity, and as for the boy, he seemed to have experienced a lot over the years.
"I need you to make another trip and hand Xiaolin over to Nongyu. She is no longer safe in Handan City."
The person who arrived was none other than Mo Ya. After bringing Nongyu back to Tianzong, he rushed to Handan without stopping. He had just arrived today when he heard Xiu Yuan's voice transmission.
"Young master, I just arrived and haven't even had a sip of water yet!"
Mo Ya was quite helpless when he heard about this arrangement.
"My benefactor~~"
Xiaolin looked at Xiuyuan with a nervous expression.
Xiu Yuan sighed softly, then said, "I'm afraid it won't be long before Handan City falls into chaos. I'll take some time to visit Yuhua Pavilion and see what Yao Yi's plans are. If there's nothing else, I'll leave soon."
Xiu Yuan patted Mo Ya on the shoulder and said, "Let's get out of Handan first. We can find a place to rest along the way. If we stay any longer, you might not be able to get out."
Mo Ya sensed the change in the aura within his body and his eyes looked somewhat strange. However, this time, he did not seek further stimulation, since he himself could not be sure whether the other party had completely taken away his true energy.
"After you send them back, you can stay with Nongyu and the others for now!"
Mo Ya shrugged, offering no refusal.
Watching this person arrive and leave in a hurry, a smile flickered across Ni Chang's lips.
"Young master, you are truly remarkable. You have even managed to recruit assassins from the Nightfall to your side."
Reaching the window, Xiu Yuan's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he spoke again, "This time, you'll leave with me too!"
Ni Chang was taken aback, her beautiful eyes filled with a strange expression.
"Can I leave?"
"Li Mu will come back. You can fake your death and escape then."
Upon hearing this, Ni Chang was taken aback.
"Li Mu?"
"His skill level is too high; his combat ability is simply uncontrollable."
"I'm here."
