Villain Master, my disciples all want to backstab me

Why is there such a ferocious ancient beast lurking in this demon's courtyard?!

And judging from its appearance, its cultivation level is actually much higher than mine!

"Evil beast! Do you really think I'm afraid of you? Just wait and see how powerful my sect's magic weapon is!"

Seeing the white tiger lunge again, Kongwen suddenly clasped his palms together, the blood patterns on his palms resonating with the jade pendant at his waist. The moment the jade pendant exploded, several golden rays shot up into the sky, transforming into nine giant bronze cauldrons that protected Kongwen—the Qingxuan Sect's secret treasure, the Nine Cauldrons Mountain Seal. The phantom images of mountains that emerged from the cauldrons solidified into substance, abruptly stopping the white tiger's second claw in mid-air!

——This magic weapon was originally intended to be used against the “Blood Kite”!

"Humph, today I want you to see my methods!"

Kong Wen bit his tongue and a stream of blood shot towards the giant cauldron in front of him. A dragon roar immediately emanated from the cauldron, which madly absorbed the spiritual energy from the earth veins within a radius of several miles, condensing it into the phantom of mountains dozens of feet high, pressing towards the white tiger!

this moment.

The white tiger's golden eyes blazed with fury, its wings suddenly spread wide, the bony spurs on its wingtips tracing a mysterious path, tearing spiderweb-like black lines through the air. As the hundred-meter mountain pressed down, it raised its head and roared, the word "King" on its forehead radiating an amber glow, and a totemic shadow, even larger than its original form, condensed around its body!

"boom--!"

The roar exploded!!

The mountain collided with the blood array, unleashing a milky white shockwave that swept across the surrounding area for hundreds of feet! In an instant, the nearby mountains and forests were flattened by the airwaves, and large tracts of trees collapsed with a loud bang. Huge clouds of dust rose into the sky, and a teeth-grinding crunching sound echoed through the mountaintops!

Kong Wen himself was blown away by the shock wave, breaking more than a dozen giant trees and causing blood to flow from his ears and nose!

Rumble…

In the smoke and dust.

The white tiger staggered, and a huge dent appeared on its shoulder. It was obvious that the previous confrontation was not easy for it, and it was even worse than the injury it suffered in the previous battle with Baili Qingfeng.

but……

Its opponent, however, was not as calm as Baili Qingfeng.

At this moment, the white tiger took swift steps and leaped out again fiercely!

"Evil beast...die!!"

Even with blood gushing from his mouth and nose, Kong Wen once again infused his magic formula. Nine bronze tripods suddenly hummed in unison, forming a formation like stars surrounding the moon and shooting out towards the White Tiger. It was the Mountain Suppression Seal's ultimate killing move, "Nine Mountains Falling"! Each small tripod carried the power of a mountain. Once combined, they would crush anyone within it into dust! In the past, the previous leader of the Qingxuan Sect had used this move to severely injure a demonic cultivator at the Spiritual Transformation Realm!

At this moment, the white tiger also let out a terrifying roar, and its hair burst into an amber light. It rushed forward with the totem shadow and slammed into the Nine Cauldrons!

Accompanied by a teeth-grinding sound of metal collision.

Amber blood-red light shot up into the sky, clearly the result of wounds bursting out from the white tiger's body. Even the imaginary image of the towering, undulating mountains shattered like glass. Amidst the surging air, a tiger's tail, swathed with the sinister energy of Gengjin, slammed heavily into Kongwen's chest, sending him flying once again!

"puff!"

This time, Kong Wen was like a kite with a broken string, crashing through four layers of mountain walls before falling to the ground.

During this process, rays of light of various colors lit up on his body, which were the life-saving magic weapons and talismans on his body taking effect. Even so, when he finally stopped, his heart and liver were broken, and many of his meridians were broken by the aftermath. What little spiritual energy he had left was running wildly!

……

"impossible……"

On the treetops in the distance.

Liao Bin placed his hands in front of his eyes and watched the battle in front of Bai Yuan's bedroom from afar. He felt his hands and feet were cold and his whole body was chilled.

Although they had never fought directly, he still had a general idea of ​​Qingxuanmen Kongwen's strength.

A genuine, solidly-founded sixth-grade Nascent Soul cultivator, his cultivation would have placed him in any sect, whether righteous or demonic. Coupled with the Nine Cauldrons Mountain-Suppressing Seal, one of the Qingxuan Sect's most valuable treasures, theoretically, even a seventh or eighth-grade Nascent Soul cultivator wouldn't be able to withstand the impact of that mountain. Yet, now... he'd been defeated by this ferocious white tiger without even setting eyes on Bai Yuan himself!

Although it looked like the white tiger was also seriously injured, its ferocious and violent aura seemed to be three times stronger than before!

If he stood in that position and faced this ferocious beast, I'm afraid...

suddenly.

Liao Bin's mind moved, and he shifted his gaze slightly upwards, and saw a pair of fair, slender feet appear in his sight. He looked again, and saw a barefoot figure in red slowly walking out of the bedroom.

"is her!"

Chapter 73: Visitors are Guests (Part 2)

now.

The white tiger had already arrived in front of Kong Wen, and knocked him to the ground with one claw when he was trying to use the life-saving jade talisman to escape. Then it opened its bloody mouth and pretended to swallow him whole.

Just at this time.

A cold female voice suddenly came from behind: "Wait."

Hear the words.

The White Tiger's movements came to an abrupt halt, with a brief struggle in its eyes. However, under the influence of the [Ring of Unity], it chose to obey the command, and turned its huge tiger head to look behind it.

Under the gaze of it, Kong Wen, and Liao Bin in the distance.

Then I saw Bai Yuan, dressed in red and barefoot, walking slowly through the ruined forest and coming to the battlefield where the two sides were fighting.

Got here.

Bai Yuan first gently stroked the white tiger's giant claws and conveyed a few words with the [Heart Ring] to soothe the beast, which had become more violent due to its injury. After it calmed down a little, he looked around carefully, especially the huge bronze tripods.

——At first glance, this thing is somewhat similar to the giant tripod used to suppress the white tiger in the ruins of Wunian Sect.

No wonder White Tiger had acted so violently and brutally just now, even resorting to a tactic of inflicting injury upon injury to counter the [Mountain Suppression Seal]. Perhaps it was the sight of the "enemy" who had suppressed it for millennia that had triggered his anger...

"Tsk, tsk."

"Qingxuan Sect really thinks highly of me. They even took out a treasure like the [Nine Cauldrons Mountain Seal] just to put me to death... It's a pity that the treasure is a good one, but the person who uses it is a waste. A mere sixth-grade Nascent Soul dares to come to my Yinyue Mountain to cause trouble. Do they really think that there is no one in my Yinyue Sect?!"

While talking.

Bai Yuan took a half step back, and the bells connected by red ropes rang, transforming into the aura of a seventh-grade Nascent Soul and sweeping towards the surroundings!

"?!!"

Kong Wen opened his eyes wide in shock, looking at Bai Yuan with an expression of disbelief. Just as he was about to open his mouth, he spat out a bloody mist mixed with internal organs: "This is impossible! You actually... Senior Brother Kongxu's 'Empty Sword Intention' clearly destroyed your Dantian... Why are you still able to cultivate now?!"

"Empty Sword Intent?"

Bai Yuan sneered, his face full of disdain: "Your reputation is quite impressive, but unfortunately your power is just so-so. You think you can hurt me with such inferior means? You're dreaming!"

At this time.

A flurry of hurried footsteps could be heard. It was the disciples of the Hidden Moon Sect who, having heard the commotion, rushed over from all around. Elders Zhou Ran and Ding Mulin were at the forefront, while Ye Shuang'er was also among them, her face filled with anxiety.

"Master!"

"Greetings, Master..."

Ding Mulin also felt the pressure from Bai Yuan. He saluted her with some doubt and trepidation. He looked around and asked carefully, "What is this?"

"Ah."

Bai Yuan sneered, his eyes taking in the expressions of Ding Mulin and the others without revealing any emotion. He then said casually, "A few scumbags from the Qingxuan Sect have sneaked in, hoping to harm me, but they are like ants trying to shake a tree. They are ridiculous and overestimating their own abilities."

"You guys, invite Elder Kongwen to our sect's prison and serve him well. After all, Qingxuan Sect is a major righteous sect. Guests are welcome. Please do not lose the courtesy of our Yinyue Sect."

Bai Yuan's words were as cold as ice.

A group of Yin Yue disciples looked at each other, seemingly unsure of her intentions. Ding Mulin then shouted coldly, "What are you still standing there for? Didn't you hear the Sect Master's orders? Bring Elder Kong Wen to the Law Enforcement Hall's Zhu Hall Master. Put on a collarbone and serve him well. Don't let him escape, and don't let him die."

"Yes."

The disciples finally understood and hurried over, passing by Bai Yuan tremblingly, lifted Kong Wen carefully, and walked back.

Watching the Qingxuan Sect elder being taken away.

Ding Mulin looked at Bai Yuan again and asked, "Sect Master, you..."

"Shh-"

Bai Yuan raised her right hand, signaling him to shut up. Then she turned to face the distant mountains and forests and shouted in a clear voice, "How long are you going to hide? Do you want me to come and ask you to come out?"

As Bai Yuan finished speaking, the white tiger next to him roared in unison, causing the entire forest to tremble.

A brief silence.

Bai Yuan stood expressionlessly with his hands behind his back, maintaining an unfathomable look, but he was muttering quietly in his heart:

(Fuck, there really isn't anyone here...)

Even if there really was no one around, she could use excuses like "they've already escaped" or "it's just a little mouse, there's no need to chase them," but that wouldn't be as impressive as forcing them to show up with just one sentence. Unfortunately, she didn't have the power of Blood Kite, so she couldn't just use her spiritual sense to scan the forest and see what was going on.

suddenly.

In the distant mountains and forests, a few flying birds were startled and jumped up, and then Liao Bin's figure was seen taking off and landing several times and appeared nearby.

"Gudong-"

Liao Bin swallowed hard, forcing himself to maintain a calm expression. Standing nearly a hundred meters away, he bowed to Bai Yuan and said, "Master Xue Yuan, long time no see."

"...Oh? It turns out to be Brother Liao from the Blood Origin Sect. What a rare visitor."

Bai Yuan chuckled, then turned around casually and walked back. "You and I are old acquaintances. If you're here to reminisce, then please follow me into the hall. But if you have other intentions, then please leave as soon as possible while my mood doesn't deteriorate. Otherwise... heh."

"Master Xueyuan, you are worrying too much. I have indeed come to you to reminisce about the past."

Liao Bin twitched the corners of his mouth a little unnaturally, smiled, and followed stiffly.

As they passed Ding Mulin, the two glanced at each other with a bit of acrimony on their faces. These two had a previous grudge in the mortal world. Liao Bin had been driven away from the mountain for this very reason.

Ye Shuang'er took the opportunity to come over and followed Bai Yuan and Liao Bin into the bedroom.

Only after they entered the courtyard did Ding Mulin glance around and shout, "You guys stay here and clean up the battlefield. Find a way to restore the destroyed trees as soon as possible. Don't move the Nine Cauldrons Mountain Seal yet. Move it to the side and wait for the Sect Master to deal with it."

"Also... we'll be deploying more sentries at various locations at the foot of the mountain and increasing patrols. If our Sect Master were to be assassinated again, how would our Hidden Moon Sect maintain its reputation in the cultivation world?"

"Yes!"

……

at this time.

In the woods more than ten kilometers away from Bai Yuan's bedroom.

Xiao Qing, covered in blood, emerged from the ground holding an earth escape talisman. He looked back tremblingly and saw that no one was chasing him. He then breathed a sigh of relief.

then……

"Waste! Elder Kongwen is also a piece of shit!"

--------

P.S. Today is also the second update in a row. As for the third update... I haven't written it yet, maybe there will be one.

Chapter 74: Each with His Own Agenda (Part 3)

"Even with our sect's secret treasure, the Nine Cauldrons Mountain Seal, you couldn't even deal with a ferocious beast under the Blood Kite Demon Lord, and yet you still claim that assassinating the Blood Kite is foolproof... Ugh! You're just trying to flatter yourself!"

"How can we run Qingxuan Sect well if we are with a bunch of losers like this?"

Xiao Qing was cursing when the bushes not far away suddenly moved, which scared him so much that he immediately lay down on the ground, hiding his body with the bushes around him. At the same time, he took out the earth escape talisman from his arms with one hand and covered his mouth and nose with the other hand, not daring to even breathe, for fear that the other party was a pursuer sent by the Yinyue Sect.

Good thing...

"Is it Junior-Martial-Nephew Xiao?"

The person who came was the first to speak, and his voice sounded familiar.

“…Elder Yue?”

As Xiao Qing stood up, Elder Yue, who looked like an immortal, appeared in his sight and sighed:

"Alas, it was my negligence that I failed to detect the sect's message and alert Senior Brother Kongwen sooner, leading to him falling prey to the Blood Kite's murderous clutches... But fortunately, despite his formidable strength, that demon didn't manage to capture both of us. Otherwise, our Qingxuan Sect would have suffered heavy losses this time."

"..."

Xiao Qing's face twitched and he thought to himself, you are so shameless.

If you hadn't run faster than a rabbit and teamed up with Kong Wen, you might have had a chance to kill the beast and then have a few exchanges with Bai Yuan himself... Now you still have the nerve to say that you were not caught in one fell swoop?

However, since everyone is a respectable person, Xiao Qing naturally wouldn't openly say something that would be detrimental to unity.

"Yes, Elder Kongwen was trying to protect us while fighting that demon, but unfortunately, he was knocked to the ground by him... We must bring this news back to our sect and have the sect leader make preparations early. In the future, we will definitely cut that demon into pieces to avenge Kongwen and Elder Kongxu!"

"That's right, that's exactly what I meant."

Elder Yue nodded repeatedly, expressing his approval of Xiao Qing's proposal.
