At this moment, Ren Yingying, who had been silent until now, spoke up.
"The Five Poisons Sect has not arrived yet."
"The Five Poisons Sect? Hmph."
Ren Woxing snorted coldly, clearly dissatisfied with the Five Poisons Sect, or rather, with Lan Fenghuang.
When Shangguan Yun and the six yellow-robed elders returned to report last time, they mentioned that Lan Fenghuang had deserted during the battle. This made Ren Woxing very dissatisfied with Lan Fenghuang, and he even wanted to kill her. However, Ren Yingying disagreed no matter what, so Ren Woxing gave up. Now, upon hearing about Lan Fenghuang, Ren Woxing became displeased.
"There's no need to wait. Just let the Five Poisons Sect follow up."
Ren Woxing said.
He already has enough men under his command, so he doesn't care about adding another Five Poisons Sect.
Ren Yingying didn't say anything after hearing this.
"set off!"
Ren Woxing waved his hand, and the crowd responded enthusiastically.
Ren Woxing's order was issued, and numerous forces from all over the country left the city in a grand procession, heading towards Blackwood Cliff.
The operation was so large that some people stayed at home and dared not show their faces.
"Junior brother, they are about to set off."
Linghu Chong looked out the window of the inn and said to Jiang Ning.
"Let's go too."
Jiang Ning dressed up to conceal her true appearance and prepared to go downstairs.
"it is good!"
Linghu Chong didn't linger and immediately went downstairs.
A long line of martial arts practitioners formed on the main street, marching out of the city in a grand procession, leaving a trail of devastation in their wake.
Jiang Ning and Linghu Chong waited patiently until the end, and then followed.
After leaving the city, Ren Woxing and his large group headed northwest for about forty li (approximately 20 kilometers) before finally arriving at a long beach.
"It's weird."
Ren Woxing frowned when he saw that the place was empty.
"Why is there no one guarding the area below Blackwood Cliff?"
This is the path to Blackwood Cliff. Normally, there would be many Sun Moon Cult members guarding this place, but now it's deserted.
"Father, be careful, it might be a trap."
Ren Yingying also sensed something was wrong and whispered.
Although Ren Woxing was arrogant, he was also very cautious, and he knew something was wrong.
"Send some people up to scout out the situation."
Ren Woxing said.
Soon, a dozen or so people were assigned to go up Blackwood Cliff to explore.
Ren Woxing and his group then waited at the foot of the mountain.
"Brother Shangguan, what's your opinion? Do you think Dongfang Bubai is deliberately creating a smokescreen?"
With nothing else to do, Ren Woxing began to discuss things with Shangguan Yun.
Shangguan Yun didn't know why Ren Woxing was asking him this question, and he himself was puzzled by the situation, but after thinking for a moment, he replied.
"Master, is Blackwood Cliff already deserted?"
Ren Woxing looked at him.
"Is Blackwood Cliff deserted?"
"The leader knew beforehand that Dongfang Bubai had appointed Yang Lianting, that scoundrel."
Shangguan Yun explained, "Dongfang Bubai has been incompetent and tyrannical for years, employing Yang Lianting to harm many of my brothers. There is already widespread resentment within the sect, and Dongfang Bubai is on the verge of being abandoned by everyone. I'm afraid that now, the other brothers in the sect know that the sect leader is going to attack Dongfang Bubai, and they are no longer willing to work for Dongfang Bubai, so they have all fled down Blackwood Cliff."
Although Ren Woxing felt that Shangguan Yun's words were untenable, he was quite satisfied. As long as it was something that belittled Dongfang Bubai, it would make him happy.
"What Brother Shangguan said makes sense."
Ren Woxing laughed and said, "However, we should not underestimate our enemy. They may have set up an ambush at Blackwood Cliff. Be careful."
Ren Woxing originally planned to attack directly, but the fact that there was no one guarding the bottom of Blackwood Cliff made him feel like he was missing his target.
"The leader is wise."
Shangguan Yun flattered him.
Meanwhile, tens of thousands of martial arts practitioners had been stationed here after receiving orders, and many of them were already itching to get back to work.
A street urchin walked to a deserted corner and began to relieve himself.
"Damn it, I'm suffocating."
The man complained as he relieved himself that he had drunk too much water on the way there and was feeling bloated. He finally breathed a sigh of relief after a while.
The man shook himself twice, pulled up his trousers, turned around and went back to his camp. Suddenly, he realized that there were two strangers around him.
"Hey bro, you look unfamiliar. I've never seen you guys before."
The man stepped forward to speak, and Linghu Chong turned around and smiled, "We came from over there. We thought it was close to the leader here, so we came to admire his unparalleled heroic figure."
The distance between the men and Ren Woxing was not far. Jiang Ning and Linghu Chong took advantage of the men leaving to urinate and then sneaked in with them.
"Where are you from, bro?"
The man chuckled upon hearing this, having never seen someone so obsequious as Linghu Chong. Out of curiosity, he started chatting with Linghu Chong, and the two engaged in a lively conversation.
Linghu Chong's social skills came into full play at this moment, and even the others around him joined in. Before long, Linghu Chong had become sworn brothers with these people.
At that moment, the dozen or so people that Ren Woxing had sent up to investigate also came down.
"Reporting to the Master, no trace of anyone has been found above."
Upon hearing his subordinates' investigation, not only was Ren Woxing surprised, but everyone else was also astonished.
Was Dongfang Bubai really afraid of them? Did he just run away?
"Go to Blackwood Cliff!"
Ren Woxing didn't care about anything else now. Since he had already come, there was no reason for him to turn back. Regardless of whether Dongfang Bubai had run away or not, he was determined to go to Blackwood Cliff.
As soon as Ren Woxing gave the order, the crowd marched up Blackwood Cliff in a grand procession, creating a truly astonishing scene.
Jiang Ning and Linghu Chong were positioned at the front of the group, arriving after Ren Woxing and the other masters and members of the Sun Moon Sect went up the cliff.
This is Jiang Ning's first time visiting Blackwood Cliff, the headquarters of the demonic sect. It is a rare opportunity. He carefully observes along the way, thinking that the next time he comes here, it may be the time of the great battle between the righteous and the demonic paths.
The path leading to Blackwood Cliff is a very smooth stone path, only a few feet wide, with smooth stone walls on both sides.
After passing through the stone path, the group stopped because there was a pool of water ahead.
Several boats were moored by the pool. Ren Woxing and his companions took a boat and rowed to the other side. The other martial arts figures also took boats. When it was Jiang Ning and his companion's turn, they arrived on the other side without having to wait long.
Across the pool is another mountain, and Blackwood Cliff is located on its summit, though the path leading up the mountain is extremely steep.
Seeing this, Linghu Chong couldn't help but whisper, "With the terrain of Blackwood Cliff, I wonder how difficult it would be to break in from the outside."
“Brother is right.”
Upon hearing Linghu Chong's words, even the martial arts expert nodded in agreement.
If they were to break through, countless people would die; that pool of water alone could hold off many of them.
The mountain path was extremely steep and difficult to climb, but the people climbing it were all martial arts practitioners. Despite the difficulty, they managed to reach the summit.
As darkness fell, a magnificent hall appeared before everyone.
"arrive!"
Ren Woxing, who was ahead, was greatly encouraged. Returning to this place after more than a decade, he was filled with emotion.
However, the top of Blackwood Cliff remained very quiet at this time.
"Master, should we send someone in to investigate?"
Shangguan Yun said in a low voice.
Ren Woxing laughed.
"Since we're already here, there's no need to explore further. Let's go in."
Ren Woxing entered first, followed closely by the others.
The main hall was magnificent and its splendor could not be concealed even as night approached, but it was very empty.
"Could it be that Dongfang Bubai really ran away? Blackwood Cliff is now completely deserted?"
Ren Woxing was filled with doubt and uncertainty.
"Congratulations, Master! Congratulations, Master! Your reputation is illustrious. When Dongfang Bubai heard that the Master was coming, he trembled and ran away with his tail between his legs."
One day, an elder of the Moon Sect began to flatter Ren Woxing.
The others also began to flatter him.
Although Ren Woxing didn't say anything, he couldn't help but smile.
However, while everyone was praising Ren Woxing, they had already arrived at the main hall. After entering the main hall, Ren Woxing suddenly stopped, looked ahead, and his expression visibly darkened.
The crowd fell silent and all turned to look ahead.
A man was sitting in the center of the main hall, with several people standing on his left and right, all of whom were coldly watching their arrival.
The man sitting in the seat always had a smile on his face, and this did not change when he saw the crowd. His gaze fell on Ren Woxing, who was at the head of the group.
"Leader Ren, it's been a long time. I've been waiting for you for a long time."
