“Strange Child, Nizi, tomorrow you two will take some men and ambush outside my poisonous miasma.”
"Big guy, everyone else, follow me into the courtyard and kill the dough figurine."
"Yes, Elder Zhao."
The crowd clasped their hands in response, their tone respectful and deferential before this ruthless elder of the Quanxing sect.
.....
The towering building, the Sanyi Xuanmen, stands serenely and solemnly atop the mountains.
A group of ragged Quanxing disciples slowly emerged from the dark mountain road.
They each carried weapons, including cold weapons, poisonous insects, and several foreign guns.
The leader wore a bronze fang mask and had a Tang-style horizontal sword tied with hemp cloth around his waist.
He was physically robust, but suddenly felt a tremor in his chest, so he stopped and signaled to his companion to wait.
When he saw the jade tablet used for communication, which emitted a bloodthirsty light, he realized it was time to attack.
A wisp of stale air escaped from his mouth. The leader slowed his breathing, his expression devoid of any emotion, and mechanically issued the command:
"Everyone, listen to my command."
"Follow me into the mountains, and I will leave no one behind, regardless of age, weakness, illness, or disability!"
As soon as he finished speaking, one of his companions responded with a sinister grin: "Let's go, let's turn this place upside down."
"Dig up that old man Zuo's grave and grind his bones to dust!"
"call out!!!"
The group quickened their pace, running and darting across the rugged mountain path like ravenous wild beasts, with no more scruples.
Now, the Sanyi Sect, having lost the protection of the Great Ying Immortal, is teetering on the brink of collapse.
Even the two most capable fighters, Si Chong and Cheng Zhen, were trapped in the Quanxing prison. All that was left were a bunch of young kids and an old man with one foot in the grave.
What do they have to fear?
The call to attack, like a fuse lit in a powder keg, could not be stopped.
Moments later, the flames of a fierce battle erupted from the mountaintop.
Amidst the flashing blades and splattering blood, more than twenty members of the Quanxing Sect charged in a mighty force.
"boom!!!"
The ancient and majestic red gate was blown open by gunpowder, and the entire sect swarmed in, their leader's murderous aura boiling and terrifying.
"The Three Paths of Daoism should come to an end here."
His words were icy, laced with overwhelming hatred. He strode forward, knife in hand, his body radiating a dense aura of malevolence, and entered the battlefield with the force of a meteor.
"You demon of the Quanxing Sect, trespassing on the sacred grounds of the Xuanmen Sect, then die!"
Before the seventh day after his master's death had passed, the Quanxing Sect attacked the mountain. Changqing and Shuiyun, who were responsible for guarding it, were equally furious.
Without the slightest restraint, he directly activated his profound skill and instantly entered the second level of his stance.
Their white hair was flowing, their faces were cold, and with every move they made, their power emitted bursts of sound as they tore through the air. Together with more than twenty fellow disciples, they engaged in a life-or-death duel with the enemy attackers.
.....
The long night has not yet ended, and the sky is still a deep blue.
In the desolate wilderness, Wu Gensheng, Li Muxuan, and the others, who were on their way, suddenly stopped.
"Master...Brother Gao...I'm not going."
Gu Qiting, who was skilled in magic and divination, said with a pale face.
He was almost kneeling on the ground, his heart pounding, his pupils dilating, as if he had encountered some terrible threat. He looked exhausted, and his face and forehead were covered in cold sweat.
"What's wrong, Xiao Gu? Are you alright?" Gao Gen asked.
"Just now... I felt uneasy, so I decided to consult a divination master on the way."
"The result was extremely bad; if they had gone any further, they would have surely died."
Gu Qiting was panting heavily, and his once bright eyes were now stained with blood—a blurry result calculated at a great cost.
He continued, "Not only me... Little Li... but also the sect leader... once you go there, there is absolutely no chance of survival."
Upon hearing this, even Li Muxuan, who was anxious to save lives, began to change color: "How could this be..."
"A fatal calamity..."
Wu Gensheng's expression changed slightly, as if he was weighing the pros and cons. He pondered for a while before making a decision.
"Then let's not go. Let's find another place to hide."
"Sect Leader, but Mr. Liu... we haven't rescued him yet!"
Li Muxuan looked anxious and clenched his fist in frustration: "Are we just going to keep hiding from the Sanyi Sect guys like this?!"
"It's not like we're afraid of them! We can always fight them."
Wu Gensheng shook his head, his expression complex. He vaguely sensed that a catastrophe sweeping across the entire sect had only just begun.
"We would have died if we had gone there, so how could we have saved anyone?"
"As for Mr. Liu... let him fend for himself. Besides, Granny Liu notified more than just a few of her followers."
"If I'm not mistaken, those guys who had grudges against Sany are all in the past."
"The situation is chaotic, and rescuing people is not realistic. We will make plans after the storm has passed."
Gao Gen hesitated, then asked Gu Jiting, "What about me?"
“Brother Gao is not in the midst of the death calamity... perhaps you can go and take a look, but that place will soon become a battlefield of carnage, you should come with us.”
"Humph!"
"You can leave. I'm not afraid. Let's go see what the Trinity Sect people are really capable of!"
Gao Gen left those words behind and continued running forward into the dawn light.
Have you thought it through?
Whether out of disappointment or helplessness, Wugensheng looked at Li Muxuan's trembling body due to hesitation and couldn't help but sigh with a smile:
"To live or to die, choose one."
"As for what Master Zuo said to you, just listen to it."
"Xiao Gu, let's go..."
Chapter 9 Bloody Feud
In the morning, in the Liu family courtyard.
Rays of warm sunlight filtered through the branches and leaves, falling along the building's structure.
Three figures sat around a square, low wooden table.
Mr. Liu slept well last night. He was full of energy, with a kind smile on his face, and was leisurely brewing tea.
As a craftsman employed by various forces in the martial arts world, he lacked strong martial arts skills and lived in a bustling area. In fact, for many years, he had been mentally prepared to die in a revenge killing almost every day.
After all, once he reached the pinnacle of his skills in bone-shaping and disguise, there were few things left in the world worth pursuing or caring about.
Therefore, despite being caught in the vortex of the struggle between the Trinity and the All-Sex, he appeared indifferent.
"Gentlemen, this is flower tea picked in Miao territory. Would you like to try some?"
Mr. Liu brewed the tea for a long time. Smelling the delicate aroma, he realized that the tea was almost ready. He then carefully picked up the teapot and poured seven-tenths full for the Chengzhen and Sichong teacups in front of him.
"Okay... thank you."
Chengzhen took the teacup, took a small sip, and felt a warm current slide down her throat, relieving the fatigue from a sleepless night.
"Mr. Liu, the tea you brewed is indeed very good."
"Uncle-Master, if you don't drink now, you might not have another chance later."
Chengzhen smiled faintly, put down the teacup, and turned his head to look at the courtyard gate.
The view there was flat and warm, which should have been a beautiful scene, but it was mixed with a hidden murderous aura, like a continuous, misty drizzle slowly gathering.
"There's no chance anymore."
With a solemn expression, he stared at the gate. Within seconds, one, two, three... up to more than twenty figures walked over in a blatant display.
Their imposing aura was like a dark, oppressive cloud. The moment they entered the courtyard, their murderous intent swept over like a storm, clearly a hunting posture.
The leader, a black-robed poisoner, along with a one-eyed man and a group of Quanxing experts, completely blocked the courtyard.
Years later, when he saw the two familiar figures in white again, their mutilated lips cracked and split from laughing, revealing their dark, twisted flesh.
"Si Chong and Wu Chengzhen, it's been a long time."
"It's you?!"
Upon seeing the newcomer, Chengzhen's expression changed slightly.
This is a ruthless character, skilled in concocting poisons and raising Gu (a type of poisonous insect). He once stirred up a bloody storm in the coastal areas, causing many civilians to be displaced.
Even some of the righteous disciples who went to besiege him were cruelly poisoned by this person and the forces behind him.
Besides them, the other ambushers were all elites with prominent positions in the Quanxing sect. They were all involved in dozens of murders and had thrived in the chaotic world. They were quite capable.
"Hehe, Mr. Kuangya and Weixuanzi, you're really having a good time. How dare you cause trouble on my Quanxing's territory?"
The gaunt young man beside the poisoner, with a sinister look in his eyes, mocked and challenged him at the same time.
"call out--!"
A sharp hidden weapon shot out from his hand, bursting with extreme speed, slicing through the sky and aiming at the center of the forehead of the masked man Liu.
"Humph!"
Chengzhen was even faster than fast. With lightning speed, she forcefully grabbed the tip of the hidden weapon just centimeters from Mr. Liu's brow, interrupting the attack.
White energy swirled around his right hand, dissolving kinetic energy, and the hidden weapon was thrown to the ground with a 'clatter'.
"Oh? Sure."
Poison Man seemed to have expected this, and said jokingly, "The kid who hid behind Old Man Zuo back then has really grown up."
Surrounded by more than twenty people, even the experienced Si Chong felt as if he were facing a formidable enemy, his gaze clashing fiercely with the poisoner in mid-air.
"Who do we have here? It's you, Zhao Wuyuan."
"The poison gas is just as filthy as it was back then. It's a pity that my senior brother couldn't kill you with a single slap back then."
"What a pity? That's because he's incompetent!"
Hearing the past being brought up, the poisoner's ugly face became even more ferocious, and he spoke word by word:
“That old man Zuo slaughtered my mentor and brother. For more than ten years, I have hated him so much that I wish I could eat his flesh and drink his blood.”
"Who would have thought that this old man would fall into the underworld first and leave this world?"
"And you, his sanctimonious junior brother who will accompany him for a lifetime; Wu Chengzhen, the seedling he nurtured and cultivated."
"If I don't execute you by slow slicing today, crush your bones and flesh, and feed you to poisonous insects, I will not be able to quell the hatred in my heart!"
Having said that, the black robe covering the emaciated body of the poisoner began to tremble;
A sinister wind howled, and countless poisonous creatures, including bizarrely shaped centipedes, scorpions, and venomous snakes, fell to the ground. A massive number of small black insects began to hiss violently, spreading along the ground and sealing off every corner.
"I'm afraid you don't have that ability!"
During the conversation, it seemed as if he was circulating his Qi and entering the second stage of reverse rebirth. The wrinkles on his face slowly faded, and his originally gray hair turned completely white.
He did not deliberately restore his appearance to that of a middle-aged man; rather, his bones and flesh merged with Qi, becoming resilient and powerful.
The intense airflow descended to the ground, forming an invisible iron wall that repelled the approach of nearby poisonous insects.
With a cold glint in his eyes, he shielded Chengzhen and Mr. Liu behind him, his imposing aura overwhelming, confronting the many Quanxing members, ready for a bloody battle.
"Last time, my senior brother was careless and you got away."
"This time, I will personally kill you."
