961 Looking Down From Above (1/2)

Purging evil and defending righteousness!

With Mo Wen's cleverness, naturally, he knew the real goal of the Blood Evil Temple. It was just that he had not imagined this sect, which he only had a minor qualm with, would actually want to kill him.

Originally, Mo Wen did not think much about the Blood Evil Temple. He had no intention of being enemies with them. However, sometimes things in Jianghu played out differently than he imagined. Mo Wen did not treat others as enemies, yet the others viewed him as a threat to be immediately eliminated.

”Huh? Lord Xue Chu, why didn't you contact our Xiping Country's authorities before you arrived? You have traveled so far. Please forgive us for not welcoming you properly.” As soon as Zhang Huishan left the city, he saw three astonishing cultivators in the air. He recognized the three of them at a glance.

The Blood Evil Temple was a powerful faction in the Xiabian province, the province next to Donghe. However, the situation in the Xiabian province was different from what was happening in Donghe. The Donghe province was shared by a few large factions and consisted of a few countries. On the other hand, Xiabian was dominated by the Blood Evil Temple, which was a very powerful sect. The only country in Xiabian was the Blood Evil Country, which had deep ties with the Blood Evil Temple.

”Zhang Huishan, I'm here on a mission. I hope you will keep out of this,” Xue Chu said coldly while glancing nonchalantly at Zhang Huishan. Zhang Huishan welcomed them with a smile, but Xue Chu responded to his warm welcome with a cold face.

”Zhang Huishan, our Blood Evil Temple is here to purge evil and defend righteousness. All of you from Xiping Country better stay out of this. Otherwise, we won't be able to tell whether or not your country is in cahoots with the heretic path,” The elder dressed in black, who was standing at the far left among the three, said arrogantly. He was looking down on Zhang Huishan.

The people from the Blood Evil Temple acted arrogantly wherever they went. Indeed, Xiping was a small country and wasn't seen as important by the Blood Evil Temple. Most likely any one of Xue Chu's team members was qualified to defeat the entirety of Xiping.

Zhang Huishan's facial expression was ugly beyond comparison. He welcomed them with a smile, yet the Blood Evil Temple did not save him any face. Regardless, Zhang Huishan was also a Primordial Soul Realm cultivator. Even if he was not as powerful as the Blood Evil Temple Leader and the two sect grand elders, he represented the Cui Hong Sect.

”Fellow brothers from the Blood Evil Temple, the loyalty of Xiping towards the Huatian Palace is unquestionable. Please refrain yourselves from making false accusations.”

”Since your Cui Hong Sect is not in cahoots with the heretic path, then we hope you will not help this teenager from the heretic path. Otherwise, your innocence will be questionable,” The elder in white who was standing on the right said plainly. The two elders stood behind Xue Chu like the Dual Evils Black and White [1].

These two people were rather famous in the Blood Evil Temple. The people around the area dubbed them as the Dual Evils Black and White. Both of them had deep and profound cultivation and were intermediate stage Primordial Soul Realm cultivators. They were experts in joint attacks. When they worked together, they were capable of taking on ordinary later stage Primordial Soul Realm cultivators.

Rumor had it that the two of them knew each other since childhood and were very close friends. They were inseparable; they even ate and slept together. After such a long time, their minds were practically in sync.

”The teenager isn't necessarily a heretic,” Zhang Huishan took a deep breath. With a glance, he could naturally tell that these people from the Blood Evil Temple were here for the teenager. The Blood Evil Temple put up such a fanfare. Even the temple leader had come personally just to attack the young man.

The Blood Evil Temple Leader had long broken through to the later stage Primordial Soul Realm. Now, he was at the pinnacle of the later stage Primordial Soul Realm. He was only a step away from reaching great attainment in the Primordial Soul Realm. Rumor had it that Xue Chu had fought with a strong practitioner with great attainment in the Primordial Soul Realm before. He managed to retreat and escape without any injuries.

”The teenager is not a heretic? Humph, Zhang Huishan, you better reconsider that. How can some who possesses a heretic item like the Ten Thousand Soul Banner not be a heretic? Are you planning to defend this heretical young man in front of me? Do you not think that I will kill you too?” Xue Chu turned around slowly. A savage crimson light shone in his eyes. His words were cold and caused others to shiver uncontrollably.

For a long while, Zhang Huishan's lips twitched; however, no words left his mouth. Xue Chu could easily kill him. Even though both of them were Primordial Soul Realm cultivators, they were worlds apart since they were not at the same stage. It was as easy as killing a chick for a later stage Primordial Soul Realm cultivator to kill a beginning stage Primordial Soul Realm cultivator.

”Get lost. It will be best for Xiping to not help this youth. Otherwise, you will pay for your actions.”

With a wave of his hand, Xue Chu sent out a rich spiritual pressure and it sent Zhang Huishan flying backward a few thousand meters. Xue Chu was not bothered by Zhang Huishan on his own. However, if the entirety of Xiping, including the Cui Hong sect, decided to side with Mo Wen, it would be difficult for the Blood Evil Temple to attack Mo Wen. They were in Xiping after all. If they stirred up too much commotion, the Blood Evil Temple would see no benefits.

Even though the Blood Evil Temple was powerful in the surrounding regions, they could not possibly hide the truth from the masses. Many sects were more powerful than the Blood Evil Temple. Some rules must be obeyed. If Xue Chu could do as he pleased without any restrictions, he would have led his people to conquer the Donghe province and a few other small countries a long time ago.

Regardless, this was Xiping and not their Blood Evil Country. If they could not deal with Zhang Huishan from the beginning, it would be difficult for them to take further action, and they might even let Mo Wen escape.

Fortunately, Zhang Huishan gave in and did not dare to be completely at odds with the Blood Evil Temple.

Mo Wen quietly stood where he was and only glanced at Zhang Huishan from afar. Then, Mo Wen ignored him. No wonder Xiping ended up being bullied so heavily by the Fengyu Country. If Xiping did not have the guts and heart to resist, then who could they blame but themselves for being bullied?

”Mo Wen, you should be honored that a dignified Blood Evil Temple Temple Leader like myself has personally come to kill you,” Xue Chu turned his gaze towards Mo Wen and sized him up. He looked like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. He looked like he was used to leading. Those who were not in the know might even believe that he was the Huatian Palace's Grand Palace Lord. He seemed to look down on the rest of creation.

”You are rather narcissistic,” Mo Wen shook his head. He did not like the gaze Xue Chu had while looking down from above, but he was also well-aware that he was no match for Xue Chu.

”As the person who is in control of your fate, should I not act superior to you?” Xue Chu asked plainly. This joke was a little cold, so cold that even Mo Wen laughed.
