God-Slaying Blade
Chapter 43 The News Spreads
Qin Jue said calmly, "You look very much like Leng Fenghua that day."
Feng Baizhi's expression changed.
Is Qin Jue threatening her?
Leng Fenghua must have also disliked Qin Jue's arrogant attitude, and then... Leng Fenghua died.
Before Feng Baizhi could figure out how to respond in a way that would both save face and prevent her from being killed, Qin Jue spoke again: "The message has been delivered. You can go back now. Go back and tell Master Feng that the best situation right now is for us to leave each other alone."
Feng Baizhi bit her red lips and said, "Alright, I will convey this to the Master of the Manor. But Young Master Qin may not realize what a tremendous opportunity he has missed!"
Qin Jue slowly closed his eyes.
Even if there were some real opportunity, why would Fengxia Manor want to benefit him? They just want to use him.
Seeing Qin Jue's reaction, Feng Baizhi was so angry that she almost bit her teeth to pieces.
She's Feng Baizhi, after all. Other men would steal glances at her, and now she's standing right in front of Qin Jue, and this guy actually closed his eyes...
Feng Baizhi turned and left angrily.
Time flies, and several days have passed.
During this period, news of Leng Fenghua and others being killed also spread through various channels.
The entire city of Fengzhou was in an uproar.
The young sect master of Lingshan Sect, Leng Fenghua, and the eight elders were actually killed by a man and a wolf in Fengzhou City!
Who exactly is this person, possessing such strength and audacity?
boom!
A loud booming sound came from a mountain peak shrouded in mist and clouds.
"No, impossible! How could Feng Hua be dead! How could a mere orphan of the Qin family, under the protection of the eight elders, possibly kill my son! How could you believe such rumors and nonsense! How incredibly stupid are you?!"
Atop the mountain, within a magnificent palace that resembled a celestial temple, came a furious roar.
On the main seat of the hall, Leng Xuanting, whose temples were slightly gray, glared angrily with bloodshot eyes.
His chest heaved violently, his fists clenched with terrifying force, and his face contorted with a ferocious murderous aura that made it difficult for anyone to look him in the eye.
Everyone knows that the sect leader doesn't disbelieve, he simply doesn't want to believe.
"Elder, immediately dispatch several disciples to Fengzhou City to investigate! If the information is false, this sect will surely tear the person who spread the rumors to pieces!" Leng Xuanting said through gritted teeth.
"Yes," a white-bearded old man replied respectfully, clasping his hands in a fist salute.
An elderly man with a black beard and white robe stepped forward, his eyes filled with solemnity, and asked in a deep voice, "Sect Master, if the news is true, what are your plans?"
Leng Xuanting clenched his fist, his expression ferocious as he said, "Second Elder, is there even a need to ask this question? That scoundrel killed my beloved son and the eight elders of our sect. Such an irreconcilable hatred deserves my blood debt!"
The Second Elder's eyes widened, and he took a deep breath, saying in a deep voice, "Although the Fourth Elder and the others haven't been at the Grandmaster level as long as we have, their strength isn't that far behind. If they really all fall at Qin Jue's hands, then Qin Jue's strength must be terrifying! Moreover, according to the news, the white wolf under Qin Jue's command is very likely a spirit beast! If our sect retaliates directly, we may face the calamity of sect annihilation!"
Leng Xuanting's gaze turned sinister, and he said in a cold voice, "What does the Second Elder mean?"
The Second Elder said in a deep voice, "If we want revenge, we must not act impulsively! I'm sure the other three sects and Fengxia Manor would not want to see a peerless prodigy who can crush an entire sect single-handedly take root in Fengzhou!"
Leng Xuanting's eyes flickered: "You mean, we should join forces with the other three sects and Fengxia Manor to deal with that kid? But the downfall of Lingshan Sect is something they'd be happy to see. Why would they help us? Even if they wanted to get rid of that kid, they'd probably choose to wait until we've fought him to the death before making their move."
The Second Elder said in a deep voice, "They may have such thoughts, but if we want revenge, we can only unite with them. Otherwise, with our sect's current strength, it would be like throwing an egg against a rock. If we are willing to offer substantial benefits, the three sects and the Feng family may be willing to help."
Sect Master, a decision on this matter must be made as soon as possible. Qin Jue is such a monstrous talent that the three sects and the Feng family will not necessarily think of killing him first, but rather of recruiting him! Only if they fail to recruit him will they consider eliminating him.
Once that Qin family brat is recruited by another sect or the Feng family, our sect will not only have no chance of revenge, but will also face annihilation! Only by dragging the three sects and the Feng family into this mess as soon as possible will they have no choice but to stand with us!
"Sect Master, what the Second Elder said is absolutely right!" The First Elder said with a serious expression, his eyes flashing.
Leng Xuanting took a deep breath and said coldly, "I never imagined that my Lingshan Sect would be driven to this state by a stray dog. It's an utter disgrace! Then let's do as the Second Elder says and quickly contact the three sects and the Feng family to join forces and kill that scoundrel! As for how much benefit to offer, the two elders can decide. Right now, my sect only wants that brat dead!"
"Alright, after the disciples are dispatched, the Second Elder and I will split up and proceed separately," the First Elder replied.
Leng Xuanting snorted, "Where is the Third Elder? Why hasn't he returned to the sect yet? With such a big incident happening to the sect, he's still out there partying. Does he even have the demeanor of a sect elder? Is someone else's wife really that alluring, making him forget about the sect?"
Everyone looked embarrassed. They all knew a little about Elder Cao Yifeng's quirks, but no one would say it out loud.
The sect leader must be furious...
……
Xuan Yuan Sect.
"Hahaha, brilliant! I never expected the Lingshan Sect to really kick a hornet's nest this time! All eight elders and four grandmasters are dead. Tsk tsk tsk, the Lingshan Sect has lost half its strength!"
Loud, unpleasant laughter echoed from the courtyard of Mo Gaosheng, the sect leader of the Xuan Yuan Sect.
Zhu Baishi smiled and said, "Sect Master, I know this news makes you very happy, but you can't laugh so loudly. It won't be good if word gets out."
Mo Gaosheng stroked his long beard and said with a smile, "What's there to be afraid of? Even if Leng Xuanting finds out, would he dare to bare even half a tooth at me now?"
Zhu Baishi laughed and said, "Leng Xuanting probably doesn't care about other people's jokes now."
Mo laughed loudly, "Junior Brother Baishi, you were very clever this time, not going head-to-head with Qin Jue. Otherwise, my Xuan Yuan Sect would probably have suffered as a result."
Zhu Baishi smiled awkwardly, thinking to himself, "Everyone knows that Qin Jue killed Leng Fenghua and the eight elders of the Lingshan Sect. If I don't act smart, I'll be courting death."
"Sect Master, you flatter me. Actually, I have another idea for you this time," Zhu Baishi said.
Mo laughed loudly, "You don't mean to recruit Qin Jue into your sect, do you? But with his current achievements, he probably won't easily join any sect."
Zhu Baishi shook his head and said, "Right now, he is shouldering the heavy responsibility of rebuilding the Qin family, so he probably won't join any sect."
"So what is your idea?" Mo asked curiously.
