10 Chapter 10 Burning Sword Wu Wei (2/2)
Atop the small hill less than six hundred feet high, Zong Yu was looking at the carriage half a mile away as it swiftly ran into the distance.
After a long while, he gave out a cold laugh, ”Just as I expected, hey! Those people definitely aren't willing to stay in Twisted Gathering. Senior Wu, you have seen those people today, are you confident?”
”That girl isn't a problem; you three can handle her. But this Yin Yang…”
Thinking back to that calm and majestic figure sitting at the front of the carriage and guiding the horses with a single hand, Wu Wei's eyes turned serious. He instinctively gripped the sword in his hand tightly, and several veins actually popped out from his thin and shriveled hand.
”That person's skill isn't normal! I ain't his opponent. That person is from the human race, so why would he work for Gantian Mountain?'
Zhou Yu frowned slightly, ”I don't know the background of that person. I only know that he was once a disciple of a big sect. Because my uncle helped him, he left the sect to become a coachman for Gantian Mountain. He has a body of exceptional skill. Senior really can't do anything to this person? Actually, you only need to drag him away…”
”I only said I wasn't his opponent, not that I couldn't do anything to him. Three days later, your senior Li will also come to Dragon Lake Plain,” he said simply.
A look of curiosity appeared on Wu Wei's face, ”As for that prince, what are you going to do to him? He is your cousin, so are you really going to kill him on the spot?”
”I'm not such a fool!”
After laughing coldly, Zong Yu placed down all his worries. ”Uncle has run for thirty years, and there are many people in the race that are loyal to him. Even if they don't want that rubbish to become king, they wouldn't allow the last descendant of uncle to die at the hands of the others. My brothers and cousins are all ambitious. If I kill him, they would make me the scapegoat! I was just scaring him before. I understand the theory of having the emperor in my power and ordering the dukes about in his name.”
When Wu Wei heard that, he directly shook his head, ”Master instructed me to help you all the way. I can even help you kill him. If those brothers dare to stop you, let's just kill them all. Even slaughtering Gantian Mountain wouldn't be a problem…”
Zong Yu did not know whether to laugh or cry, ”My Gantian Mountain isn't that small Defeng City. Even if my uncle dares, master still has to be worried. Forget it, senior won't get it. As for my cousin, although I won't kill him, I won't let him have an easy time. A piece of rubbish that can't train any internal energy actually wants to be the heir?! Will we really let an impure bastard inherit the position of Monster King and take charge of the million branch races of Gantian Mountain?”
As he spoke, who knew what Zong Yu was thinking. An ugly blood scar actually appeared on the right side of his face, and hatred could be seen in his eyes.
”If he falls into my hands, I will make his life a living hell!”
Wu Wei kept silent. He did not know what grievances or past his junior brother had with that heir, and he was not willing to ask either.
He only came to this Dragon Lake Plain to kill!

To proceed to Lingyun Sect's Pill Spirit Mountain, they needed to cross the Dragon Lake Plains and reach the East of the continent, which would probably take half a month.
Unexpectedly, the carriage galloped for five days through the wilderness and got out of the swamp region without obstruction. It was peaceful all the way. The sneak attack they had been preparing for had not arrived. However, the depressed feeling of the calm before a storm was getting thicker and thicker.
Chuxue was on high alert. Standing on the roof of the carriage, she suspected everything around her. Zong Shou stayed within the carriage to train like nothing was happening. Even if the carriage stopped occasionally, he would not come out.
He tested all of the three hundred Willow Mark knives one by one. However, he only kept five in his sleeves, hidden right next to him.
With his current cultivation, it would not be possible to use spirit to train the knife. However, days of carrying them along could help strengthen the spiritual connection and have some slight effect.
The other flying knives were used by him for training. He did not use internal energy. He just repeatedly shot them out in an uninteresting manner.
After all, they were different from the ironwood flying knives, whose weights and thicknesses were different. For those knives, a slight error would cause deviation. Out of the three hundred Willow Mark knives, a large half were used to let his body get used to controlling them.
For the true trump cards, these five were enough!
