512 Deal (1/2)

Luo Shan would never have imagined that the situation would actually be like this! Why had this youth suddenly turn so ferocious?

Xia Kunqian had been waiting to one side for a while. The instant that Luo Shan's spirit appeared sluggish, he immediately attacked, killing Luo Shan in one blow.

After killing Luo Shan, Mo Wen and Xia Kunqian walked out of the Snow Storm Stratagem. Mo Wen's soul power was still limited. It was impossible for them to keep on killing. In addition, they had almost killed half of the Sacred Flame Sect elders in the Snow Storm Stratagem. The pressure within the stratagem's inner circle was immediately greatly reduced.

”Little friend Mo Wen, I have never felt so comfortable. The kills we made were so satisfying.” Once Xia Kunqian walked out of the Snow Storm Stratagem, he started laughing out loud. To be able to kill the Sacred Flame Sect elders consecutively was practically an impossible feat. The Intentionless Sect had been suppressed by the Sacred Flame Sect for half a month. Finally, they could vent out their frustrations.

”We killed so many Sacred Flame Sect elders. The Sacred Flame Sect will most probably not stop at this.” Mo Wen said this plainly. They had consecutively killed five Sacred Flame Sect elders. That was no small matter. Once the Sacred Flame Sect sect leader knew about it, no one knew what results would be triggered.

Upon hearing this, Xia Kunqian also frowned. Before this, he was enjoying the killings; he had not considered anything else. Right now, in retrospect, it was indeed a hidden danger. Although they had killed five elders of the Sacred Flame Sect, causing the pressure on the Intentionless Sect to be greatly reduced, when comparing the balance of power, the Intentionless Sect was still at a disadvantage.

Also, what he was most afraid of was that this incident would give an insight to the Sacred Flame Sect sect leader. It could cause him to change his battle strategy at the last minute.

The two of them returned to the Mindfulness Hall. Chen Zikuang was exercising his powers to heal himself. Before this, Mo Wen had given him a Cyan Spiritual Pill. With the help of the spiritual pill, his injuries this time around had already recovered around seventy to eighty percent.

Seeing Mo Wen and Xia Kunqian return, Chen Zikuang also opened his eyes. ”What was the result?” Chen Zikuang asked.

”This time around, we killed five Sacred Flame Sect elders,” Xia Kunqian said.

”What! So many?” Chen Zikuang was shocked.

Xia Kunqian nodded his head. Losing five elders at once, the Sacred Flame Sect would most likely be coughing up blood.

Chen Zikuang was astonished beyond compare. He originally thought that the two of them being able to kill one or two Golden Elixir realm elders would be a good result. Consecutively killing five was something he had never imagined.

From the looks of it now, he had still slightly underestimated Mo Wen's ability.

”Immediately enter level one alert state.” At the same time, Chen Zikuang secretly thought that things weren't looking good. Killing one or two probably would not be anything. Killing five consecutively would surely trigger a fierce retaliation from the Sacred Flame Sect.

”Deputy Sect leader, do you also believe that the Sacred Flame Sect will not stop at this?” Xia Kunqian said as he frowned.

”It will be far worse than not stopping at this.” Chen Zikuang laughed bitterly and said, ”Before this, the Sacred Flame Sect already had two dead elders as well as a missing sect protecting spiritual weapon. They surely would have been on alert. Now that another five died consecutively, how could it not cause Zhu Lanhuo to be suspicious?”

When accidents happened one after another, anyone could have guessed that there was certainly something amiss.

…

That night, the house occupied by the Sacred Flame Sect in the outer city of Intentionless City was abuzz.

”What! Five elders disappeared all at once?” Zhu Lanhuo stood up from his chair. His eyes were wide open and his voice shook the house, causing it to constantly tremble.

”Reporting to the sect leader, when we were counting our casualties at night, five elders had yet to return.” A man dressed in black from the intelligence department reported respectfully as he half-kneeled on the ground.

”How can this be possible!” Zhu Lanhuo clenched his fist. He did not believe that the five elders had died in the Snow Storm Stratagem. If the Intentionless Sect had the ability to do so, they most likely would have shown it already and not have waited until now to do so.

”Could it be that the Intentionless Sect used some sort of scheme to trap the five elders?” Li Zhuoying asked in an attempt at comforting those who were worried. ”Five Golden Elixir realm elders could not possibly be so easily killed. Even Chen Wuhui at his prime could not do such a thing.”

Although intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners could kill beginning stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners, if the beginning stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner focused only on escaping, the chances of them escaping were very high. For five elders to die consecutively, with none of them returning alive was almost impossible. The Intentionless Sect did not have the ability to do so at all.

”If the Intentionless Sect had such methods, they would have used them long ago. There must have been some change,” Zhu Lanhuo said with an ugly expression.

”You shouldn't think too pessimistically. Maybe the five elders could not make it back on time due to some other reason.” Li Zhuoying still did not believe that the current Intentionless Sect could kill five Sacred Flame Sect elders. Even he could not do so.

”Tomorrow, we will go for an all-out attack. Both you and I will attack together. That brat Chen Zikuang was just injured yesterday. While his injuries have yet to recover, we will injure him again. As this accumulates, we can then kill him off.” Zhu Lanhuo coldly snorted. His plan was very simple. Every day they would injure Chen Zikuang bit by bit. Under the circumstances where he was getting more and more injured, this person would then no longer pose much of a threat.
