Chapter 730 - Gao Moumous inauspicious plot... tsk, tsk, tsk! (1/2)

Chapter 730: Gao Moumou’s inauspicious plot… tsk, tsk, tsk!

Translator: G.o.dBrandy Editor: Kurisu

The scholarly faction and the Netherworld Realm were arch-enemies. Back in the days, after the Scholarly Sage was defeated in the battle for the Will of the Heavens, the creatures of the Netherworld Realm seized the opportunity to launch a powerful attack that almost wiped out the entire scholarly faction. As such, the scholars—who were at the peak of their momentum back then—started to decline.

Then, after going through a long dark age, the scholars slowly started to recover. But, each time the scholarly faction was showing signs of recovery, the demons of the Netherworld would look for them and launch a powerful attack, crus.h.i.+ng them again before they could recover their strength.

More than 300 years ago, the scholars decided to withdraw from the world due to the continuous raids, and rarely appeared in front of others since then. Only after several hundred years had pa.s.sed did they recover some of their power.

Now that they discovered that the scholars were slowly recovering their strength, the demons of the Netherworld got ready to enter into action. They decided to make use of the grand ceremony that scholars held once every three years to launch their large-scale attack.

“The demons of the Netherworld want to attack the White Cloud Academy?” Song Shuhang pondered for a short moment, and asked, “Are the demons coming over to attack very powerful?”

As soon as the demons of the Netherworld were mentioned, he immediately thought of that batch of demons that attacked Venerable White’s holiday residence a while ago.

Actually, the strength of that group of demons wasn’t low. After all, there were several demons of the Sixth Stage True Monarch rank amongst them.

It very regrettable that they met an expert in formations such as Scholar Xian Gong, as well as the helpers he had invited. In addition, there were also the superstars of the Nine Provinces Number One Group. As such, the trip of those demons turned into a tragedy.

What was scary wasn’t an amazing cultivator or a cultivator so amazing that no one could befriend them… but an amazing cultivator with a bunch of amazing friends! That was simply too much to handle!

“According to what I know, although there won’t be any demon of the Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender rank personally getting into action, there is a possibility that demonic hives of the Eighth Stage rank will be dispatched. As for demons of the Seventh Stage Venerable Realm, there will be at least three of them,” Senior White Two said indifferently.

Song Shuhang got a scare, even existences of the Eighth Stage rank were going to be dispatched? One had to remember that the strongest members of the Nine Provinces Number One Group—Venerable Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue, Venerable White, and that other mysterious administrator, Xuan Nu Sect’s Skylark—were only powerhouses of the Venerable Realm! As for Venerable Spirit b.u.t.terfly, he was more like an external helper, and not really part of the group.

Up until now, there wasn’t a single cultivator in the Nine Provinces Number One Group that had shown their divinity in front of the ma.s.ses and reached the Eighth Stage Realm. But, now, there were going to be demons of the Eighth Stage rank amidst the enemy army…

“Is this news… reliable?” Song Shuhang’s smiling face stiffened.

The troops the Netherworld Realm was going to dispatch this time were simply too powerful!

He had no idea what the current strength of the White Cloud Academy was, or what the level of the strongest senior here was… but if they were not careful enough, their entire sect might get annihilated!

Senior White Two stretched himself with a smile, and said, “In the Netherworld Realm, nothing can escape my eyes.”

“Senior White, thank you for this information,” Song Shuhang said gratefully. “I’ll immediately tell this news to the various senior so that they can prepare themselves in advance.”

After he had said this much, Song Shuhang shouted, “Leave!”

But… nothing happened.

Song Shuhang’s consciousness was still in that s.p.a.ce.

Shuhang raised his head and looked at Senior White Two in confusion.

“Tell me another joke, and I’ll let you leave this place,” Senior White Two said with a smile.

Song Shuhang said anxiously, “Senior White, can I owe this joke for the time being? The situation seems critical, and I must save every second I can!”

“But I’m in no hurry~” Senior White Two yawned, and said, “And from a certain point of view, I’m someone from the camp of the Netherworld Realm. Therefore, stop wasting time and quickly tell me a joke. I’ll let you leave this place when I’m satisfied.”

“…” Song Shuhang.

Senior White Two was from the camp of the Netherworld Realm? In that case, why did he tell him about this attack the demons of the Netherworld were about to launch?

Just as though he had seen the confusion in Song Shuhang’s eyes, Senior White Two said, “Aren’t you humans divided into several factions? It’s the same in the Netherworld Realm, and there are several influences. Anyway, stop overthinking, and tell me a joke already!”

Song Shuhang forced a smile, and said, “Senior White, I really can’t think of a good joke at this time. Can’t I owe it for now? After I go back, I’ll look up several jokes and tell you two— no, ten of them!”

“Aaah~” Senior White Two yawned, and said, “If you don’t tell me a joke, I’ll just go to sleep. This time, I might sleep a little longer than usual. For your information, the last time I was a little tired and felt like sleeping a little longer, I slept for whole 600 years~”

600 years?! Song Shuhang felt that even his bones would become dust by that time!

Song Shuhang was now in a dilemma.

After seeing Song Shuhang’s expression, Senior White Two said, “Are you really unable to tell me a joke?”

“Yeah, I find it somewhat difficult at the moment. In my current mood, I’d find it easier to tell a horror story,” Song Shuhang forced a smile and said.

“In that case, how about telling me a horror story? If it’s good, I can let you leave this place,” Senior White Two said happily.

“…” Song Shuhang.
