839 Traitor (2/2)

This time, quite a few Baili Sect members had come. They had more than eight Embryonic Breathing Realm strong practitioners. Even the Baili Sect sect leader, Yang Gongcheng, was here.

Until their sect leader appeared, the Five Tigers Sect simply did not dare to act.

However, fortunately, Su Wan'er and Wang Qian had not pleaded guilty. If they admitted the crime, it would be impossible for the Five Tigers Sect to save them. The Baili Sect had come for the two Dragon City Talismans. Once the girls pleaded guilty, they would most likely find a reason to take the Dragon City Talismans.

”You two thieves are still not pleading guilty? Did you think that if you did not plead guilty that the sect would save you? Stop dreaming. After offending the Baili Sect, did you think that you could make it out alive? Death awaits you regardless of what you do. Wouldn't it be better to confess and spare yourselves the pain?”

What no one had expected was that one of the Five Tigers Sect's Sect Grand Elders, Liu Hua would say such a thing. One by one, the Five Tigers Sect disciples stared at Liu Hua with their mouths wide open. Was he still one of their Sect Grand Elders?

The Baili Sect had bullied their way into their sect, yet one of their Sect Grand Elders, Liu Hua, had actually spoken up for the Baili Sect.

”Liu Hua, you old thief! So it was you.” Yun Pengqing's gaze was like lightning as he suddenly stared at Liu Hua.

The gazes of the other two Sect Grand Elders also fell upon Liu Hua, their eyes filled with seething rage. These past few days, they had constantly been suspicious of a mole in the sect. Now, everything was finally revealed. The mole was actually Liu Hua, and he revealed himself of his own accord.

He had also leaked the news that they were going to the Huatian Palace to exchange objects for the Dragon City Talisman, as well as the fact that Su Wan'er and Wang Qian had Dragon City Talismans.

Liu Hua's words just now were clearly intended to disintegrate Su Wan'er and Wang Qian's psychological defenses, giving them the false impression that the sect had forsaken them. Once they had such thoughts, they would most likely crumble and confess under torture.

”A wise man submits to fate. You old things probably won't even know how you end up dying.”

Liu Hua coldly laughed as he ignored the furious gazes of Yun Pengqing and the others. He casually walked over to Yang Gongcheng, bowed respectfully and said, ”Liu Hua pays his respects to Sect Leader Yang. You are welcome to inspect the Five Tigers Sect.”

”Hmm, you have done well. A wise man submits to fate. The other Five Tigers Sect Sect Grand Elders are not as good as you.” Yang Gongcheng nodded his head. However, his face still showed no expression.

Liu Hua secretly felt pleased. In the Five Tigers Sect, although he was honored as a Sect Grand Elder, he was always ranked at the bottom of the Sect Grand Elders. Today, he was finally acknowledged, and by the Baili Sect sect leader Yang Gongcheng at that.

Yun Pengqing and Wang He were so angry that words failed them. They could barely contain themselves from killing Liu Hua on the spot. This b*st*rd had actually lowered himself before Yang Gongcheng and made it seem as though them forcing their way into the sect was an inspection. Since when had the Five Tigers Sect become Yang Gongcheng's territory that required his inspection?

A dignified Sect Grand Elder had actually prostrated himself in such a manner. He had disgraced the Five Tigers Sect completely.

Even the Five Tigers Sect's ordinary disciples felt ashamed. Such a villain had actually appeared in their sect, and he was even a dignified Sect Grand Elder.

A sigh suddenly sounded in the square.

”Yang Gongcheng, you should have broken through to the Golden Elixir Realm, right? Without having broken through to the Golden Elixir Realm, would you have dared to bully my Five Tigers Sect?”

In the square, another person suddenly appeared. It was an elder, who was none other than the Five Tigers Sect sect leader, Xie Rengui.

Xie Rengui was as indifferent as before. His face revealed no expression, as though the scene before him had no effect on him. The Five Tigers Sect disciples also calmed down quite a bit, as though they had been fully assured.

The sect leader was the pillar of a sect. As long as the sect leader lived, the sect would still be around.

”Old Man Xie, you are farsighted.” Yang Gongcheng coldly smiled.

”It is not that I am farsighted. It is just that I am well aware of the disposition of this villain Liu Hua. If you have not broken through to the Golden Elixir Realm, would he dare act so unscrupulously? In reality, I have long suspected him. It is just that I haven't been able to get my hands on concrete evidence.”

Xie Rengui shook his head. From Liu Hua's unscrupulous look, he clearly did not consider the Five Tigers Sect to be a threat to him.

”If Liu Hua can betray the Five Tigers Sect, one day he can also betray the Baili Sect. Sect Leader Yang must be aware of this, no?” Xie Rengui swept a glance at Liu Hua. The gaze caused Liu Hua to feel an uncontrollable chill down his spine. A sense of fear involuntarily welled up inside of him.

The Five Tigers Sect sect leader Xie Rengui was also a pinnacle strong practitioner that had been highly renowned in the martial art circle back in the day. Rumor had it that with the talent of his youth, he had a high chance of breaking through to the Golden Elixir Realm. However, when he was young, he was severely injured and was left untreated. After so many years, he had constantly remained at the pinnacle of the Embryonic Breathing Realm, his cultivation showing no signs of improvement.

”Sect Leader Xie, you are an intelligent person. I will waste time on small talk. Let me take these two girls with me, and this incident will end here. From here on out, the Baili Sect and the Five Tigers Sect will each go their own way and not interfere with each other. How about it?” Yang Gongcheng asked plainly.
