430 Unable to Succeed (1/2)

”...14 rebels have been captured and investigated to be common people path disciples. 3 days later, they would be beheaded in front of everyone to act as a warning to others…”

Retracting his spiritual sense from the message talisman, Zong Shou had a lost expression on his face.

When he read the news, the 1st thought he had was that someone was impatient, running out of the hiding spot to take matters into their own hands.

Being cooped up here for close to a month without any signs of them being about to act and without any special arrangements. Zong Shou knew that the sect elites that came together with him were already filled with grievances towards him. The only thing they didn't do was to point right at his nose and blame him for treating this matter too lightly.

These few days he chose to undergo secluded meditation because what remains unseen is deemed to be clean.

Following which he felt that things weren't right. With Xuan Shu's ability, who could sneak out without the 400 mysterious dragon warriors finding out?

He continued to read on and realized that it wasn't the case. It was within the sect. For some reason, some inner sect disciples ran to this Yan City Pass.

They were originally prepared to use explosive spiritual formations to kill the nobles to force the governor here to release those 3 million people in Helian Iron Mountain.

In the end, even before they even started, they were all captured in Lewu County 70 miles away by the city magistrate in that area.

Within Yan City Pass, there were a few hidden chess pieces of the common people path. Then, this news was passed from Xuan Shu to him.

He felt a little familiar about it. Zong Shou thought quietly about it and remembered the plan that he heard that day at the Qiushi Hall. following which he groaned and felt his body was devoid of energy.

...These people acted? Didn't Hanfang mention that with the sect and the seniors restricting them these fellows wouldn't dare to mess about?

His fellow disciples in the common people path weren't a whole different breed of special.

Rubbing his temples, Zong Shou felt his head hurt up. He took another look at the cave, only to see Zhao Yanran and Xuan Yunlan's face like dirt. Xuan Shu's expression was also green.

Maybe because Zong Yuan and Ruoshui felt like this matter didn't concern them which was why they were expressionless.

”Who knows how many people know about this? Are you able to lock down this news and not let any other people know?”

That Xuan Shu's brows furrowed, saying with uncertainty, ”I will try my best! Only we still need to try to save these fellow disciples. If we just leave them like this and not bother, it will make the hearts of others turn cold.”

Zong Shou acknowledged and didn't follow believe. Numerous thoughts rose up in his head. For them to save those people, going head-on was not going to work out.

To behead these tens of common people path disciples 3 days later. This was most probably a trap laid out by Yuan Jiuchen to make them jump out by themselves.

Just as he was thinking about a method to solve it, a loud explosion broke out at the entrance of the cave.

Zong Shou's brows rose up as he looked over. He saw that a spiritual barrier was being forced open by a giant strength.

Then, a few people walked in with extremely dark faces. The first person was Xie An. The other 2 beside him were Luoshi and Xuanye. Behind them, followed hundreds of people who stood outside with anger on their faces.

Although they didn't follow the 3 of them in, they were all riled up.

”As this matter is an emergency, we are in a rush to meet the first seat. If this is impolite please forgive us!”

The first to speak was Luoshi. Although he was apologizing, he didn't mean it at all. Instead, his sword brows were locked tight, looking towards Zong Shou without any emotions.

”Those the first seat know about the Lewu County matter?”

Zong Shou sighed, these few people are well informed. As expected most of them were unhappy about it.

It seems like these people came over most likely to criticize violently.

”I know!”

”Then how is the first seat going to deal with this matter?”

Zong Shou expressionlessly swept an eye over Luoshi, he said flatly, ”The sect will naturally handle those ten over disciples, it has nothing to do with us. If you all have finished what you had to say then you all can go back…”

Luoshi held his breath, following which he laughed coldly, ”What a good it has nothing to do with us! Aren't you afraid of the many disciples of the common people path losing faith? Forget it, I still have one more thing to ask. How long are you going to wait here till? Until the sect gives up and then we return home? If we could have completed the matter a few days earlier and taken that Yuan Jiuchen's life. How would these ten over fellow disciples end up in the hands of those lackeys?

Zong Shou was unhappy, he didn't think that Luoshi would think so highly about himself. To view Yuan Jiuchen who had caused the sect to fail several times and suffer heavy casualties as someone who was in the bag.
