C54 (2/2)
Old Zhao coldly said, ”Old man, you are really wrong. I didn't expect a mute like you to be a master with exceptional skills. Why did you save Little Monkey? Could it be that he is the spy that you sent to Lou Guang Sect?”
Xiao Li shook his head. Since he couldn't say anything, he could only nod and reply with a shake of his head.
Old Zhao sneered, ”No matter who you are, it's better for us to stick together. Otherwise, it'll be too late. You've already activated the mechanism in the stone room, so someone is already rushing here.”
Xiao Li shook his head, disagreeing.
Old Zhao said, ”Why? Could it be that you want to take all the benefits for yourself? You need to know that all of us are doing this for that secret scripture.
Xiao Li waved his hand and gestured at himself, indicating that the secret manual was not what he wanted.
Old Zhao and him had been together for some time, so he could roughly guess what Old Zhao meant. He immediately rejoiced, ”Since the manual is not what you want, then it's even better. Let's each take what we need.”
Xiao Li shook his head again and gestured, indicating that he didn't mind if everyone went their own way. However, you have been following me around, wanting me to be a scapegoat for death. You wanted to kill me earlier, so I won't let you get the manual.
Old Zhao felt a great headache coming on. When he sneaked an attack earlier, he wanted to take the manual for himself. At the same time, he could use Xiao Li's corpse to make a big fuss and make the people in the altar point their spears elsewhere. If he knew that Xiao Li was the person who had used the little monkey's hands to injure him, he definitely wouldn't have sneak attacked him.
With Old Zhao's cautious personality, he couldn't wait to join hands with an expert like Old Zhao. His goal was just the Lou Guang Sect's secret scripture, so he didn't mind as long as he had a copy of it.
After a moment of silence, Old Zhao said, ”Brother, why do you need to do this? Knowing that a stalemate would not benefit anyone, there was always a way to resolve the situation. If there was anything you wanted, you could just ask for it. I believe that the people in the altar are rushing over right now.
Just as Xiao Li was about to reply, a voice came from the cave entrance, ”It's too late. We're already here.” The two of them immediately looked towards the entrance of the cave and saw five people standing at the top of the stone steps. One of them was Foreign Dignitary Hong.
Old Zhao immediately said in a low voice, ”It's all your fault, no one can even think of getting their hands on it now.”
Xiao Li stood there quietly with a bitter feeling in his heart. He had not come here to find something, he just wasn't willing to be used by Old Zhao. However, when he saw Foreign Dignitary Hong, he knew that he had probably put them to good use.
The person on the stone steps laughed and said, ”You are right. You were just wishful thinking to come to my main altar to steal my secret scripture. Don't you know that there is no way back when you are inside the tiger's cave? Do you want us to fight or do you want us to surrender? To tell you the truth, we've been waiting for you. ”
Old Zhao heard his question and his voice turned colder. ”What?” Could it be that you intentionally spread false information? ”
The person in the middle of the stone steps seemed to be the leader, and the one who spoke was him. The leader said, ”We did release the news on purpose, but it's not fake. In order to draw out your hidden cancer in the altar, I'm afraid you won't be able to use fake information. ”
Old Zhao coldly said, ”You are really good at scheming!”
That person laughed loudly and said, ”Of course. Otherwise, how could I hook up with you old foxes?”
Xiao Li understood in his heart that this was all part of the Lou Clan's plan. They intentionally spread the rumor that there was a secret scripture of the 'Star Gazing Palm' in the main altar. It was an important treasure that only the Altar Lord could learn from. In fact, they knew that all the sects had spies in their society, so they used this method to lure the snake out of its cave. In order to confirm whether the news was true or false, the various sects would definitely use these spies. At the same time, they would allow them to try to steal the secret manuals. Sure enough, Old Zhao had revealed his true form. There would probably be more people who would be exposed in the future. Xiao Li smiled wryly as he thought about this. It was just a coincidence that he had become their chess piece and was being used by these people. The reason Foreign Dignitary Hong told him this news so readily was probably because he wanted to use him as a vanguard to investigate the secrets of the entire altar.
Indeed, Foreign Dignitary Hong opened his mouth and said: ”Great Elder, why are you telling them so much? Let's capture them first before slowly interrogating them.”
Old Zhao suddenly laughed out loud and said, ”With just the few of you wanting to capture him, isn't this way too wishful thinking?”
The person who spoke was the Head Elder of the main altar. He also laughed out loud and said: ”You sure have a lot of words, I don't know if there is anything that you can take out.”
Old Zhao coldly snorted, ”You'll know after you fight.” Suddenly, he waved his right hand and pointed at Xiao Li. When Xiao Li saw his movements, he was startled. He didn't expect Xiao Li to attack him at this moment. When Old Zhao waved his hand, Xiao Li knew that something strange was going to happen, so he dodged to the side.
That item directly hit the ground, and with a loud bang, it exploded. Xiao Li didn't expect that the thing would actually explode. He immediately suffered a hidden loss as he was blown into the air and flew back a few meters. His clothes also exploded. The moment the object exploded, a large amount of smoke immediately exploded out. The smoke spread very quickly and enveloped Xiao Li and Old Zhao in the blink of an eye.
Tomorrow at 30, I wish everyone a happy family and a happy reunion.
