Chapter Two Hundred and Fifty Two – Fire Paper Method
He Xiang released a breath in the side. Twelve hours before the final deadline, and he had finally found the enemy! As long as he found the enemy, he had the time to sort them out. The feeling of living after near death filled his body. He couldn’t help but want to exhale, but when he saw the hint of disappointment in the eyes of Second Elder, he forced himself to keep it in.
A hint of darkness flashed across the deepest part of his eyes. He did not want to show his weakness in front of his opponent.
“I’ve said it before. As long as they are in Little Mountain Jie, how can we not find them?” He pretended to be calm and said with a smile, “Tell us the situation.”
He looked as though he had expected all this.
“Chief Elder, our people had encountered the enemy on the plains in West River. A small platoon of sixteen people, our people were completely defeated.”
“West River Plains?” He Xiang mused, “Let Yu An take some people and make a trip. The other side has four people that have comprehended sword essence, and a dhyana xiu that has an abhinna. We cannot underestimate them.”
“Yes!” The subordinate hurriedly complied.
“Go quickly. Report anytime there is news.” He Xiang waved his hand.
The subordinate was perceptive and left.
“No wonder this group dare to be so presumptuous. They do have some ability.” He Xiang smiled as he spoke to the other elders. “A little troop just disappeared like this without a sound.”
“Chief Elder is wise,” an elder agreed. “However, if they want to work against our Clear Sky Sect, they obviously do not know their own limits, and are asking for their death.”
The other elders all nodded.
As to the little troop that had all died, no one was concerned. What did it have to do with them? The Outer Hall did not lack for people.

Below their feet were patches of clouds that spread into the horizon like a sea of clouds. Flying above the cloud layer, the sky was perfectly blue. Without any cover, the sunlight was abnormally poisonous. If one did not have their ling armor activated, they would be unknowingly corroded with a thread of fire poison contained in the sunlight.
There would rarely be xiuzhe who would fly so high. The strong wind at high elevations and the fire poison in the sunlight would increase the consumption of ling power in flight.
A troop of about three hundred people howled across the sea of clouds with astounding speed.
“Boss, where are we going?” the subordinate asked Gongsun Cha.
Gongsun Cha was sitting on a large green sword. There was an egg shaped ling shield around the big sword, blocking out the sharp wind and poisonous sunlight. Inside the ling shield, it was as warm as the spring and unusually silent. This big sword that was about one and a half zhang long had been forged of an entire block of fourth-grade Wind Ling Wood. Peerlessly light, it was an extremely fine flight flying sword. However, it was sumptuous to use such a big piece of Wind Ling Wood to make a flight flying sword. This was a spoil of victory.
This flying sword was called [Green Cloud], and had become Gongsun Cha’s personal flying sword. Because this flying sword could hold seven or eight people at the same, the person sitting on the point of the flying sword was the xiuzhe who was controlling Green Cloud. With Gongsun Cha’s zhuji cultivation, he basically could not move Green Cloud.
“Don’t you feel that we are too few in number?” When Gongsun Cha asked this, he seemed very much like a young and confused youth.
Of course, the people sitting here had become immune long ago.
“Not too few. We have six divisions now.”
“But this city can hold ten thousand people.” Gongsun Cha’s voice seemed slightly childlike.
Everyone sweated. It seemed Lil’ Miss’ sense of humor was increasing.
However, Gongsun Cha’s words made everyone’s hearts shake. The implication of Lil’ Miss’s words were clear. They couldn’t help but feel a thread of sympathy for the xiuzhe in the surrounding area.
“Then which place are we going to fight this time?” the subordinate asked carefully.
“One by one.”
Everyone shook again.
Gongsun Cha moved his mouth and another xiuzhe took out a jade scroll, channeling ling power inside. A light flashed and an illusory landscape of rivers and mountains appeared in front of them.
“There are thirteen different powers in our surroundings. The biggest has over five hundred xiuzhe, the smallest has eighty xiuzhe. Oh, on average, each faction has about two hundred people. Thirteen factions, how many would that be?” Gongsun Cha tilted his head as he asked.
The subordinate swallowed, “About two thousand and six hundred people.”
The faces of the people changed slightly. In total, they had slightly more than three hundred people. If they were to attack more than two thousand and six hundred people, the difference in numbers was really too large.
“Just two thousand.” A slightly disappointed expression came onto Gongsun Cha’s face.
Everyone’s heart jumped simultaneously as they hurriedly urged.
“It’s more than enough, more than enough. Head, we should fight one at a time.”
“Yes yes! An empire isn’t built in a day.”
… …
They feared that Gongsun Cha would be crazy and increase the number of targets. It was very likely that something like that could happen.
Gongsun Cha showed a disappointed expression. “Alright, even though it is slightly less, but we shall first eat them.”
“Head is wise!” The subordinates said together.
Gongsun Cha smiled as though he enjoyed the respect of all the people.
“Head, we’ve taken so many people out, the safety of the camp is … …”
