Chapter 304 Taking the bait
Chapter 304 Taking the bait
While pretending to escape, Fang Xiao was worried that his speed was too fast and he would lose sight of the people chasing him, so he kept his speed at a constant level.
After a chase, he felt the time was about right.
"I think the Zhou Patriarch mentioned by this person is on his way. Let's wait here and see which sect he belongs to."
Although Fang Xiao didn't know who this Old Ancestor Zhou was, he was at best a Nascent Soul cultivator, because in the Eastern Region, apart from the three hostile God Transformation Sect members other than the Tianlan Sect, there was no one with the surname Zhou.
Having made up his mind, he and Yuan Chen landed on a hilltop.
"It is indeed these two people. How did Senior Brother find them?"
With just one glance, Yuan Chen recognized the people chasing him from behind.
“I don’t know these two people, but they recognized me. They must be the enemy forces of my Tianlan Sect.
Originally, I just thought there was something wrong with these two people, but I didn't expect them to communicate openly in front of me. What's the difference between this and speaking directly to my face?"
“I see. How could they have thought that Senior Brother’s soul was already at the Nascent Soul level? So they want to capture these two alive and bring them back to the sect?”
Yuan Chen suddenly realized that Fang Xiao wanted to pry some information out of the two of them.
"What's the point of bringing them back to the sect? I want the people behind them."
Before Yuan Chen could ask further questions, the two pursuers had already caught up with him.
Seeing that the two of them wanted to say something, Fang Xiao had no intention of listening at all. He would come and see for himself later.
The invisible sword instantly entered the minds of the two.
This time he did not hold back and completely destroyed his mind and consciousness.
The two of them instantly turned into the state of living dead. Before they fell to the ground, Fang Xiao waved his hand and put them into the Five Mountains True Shape Map, and asked Xing Yue to take care of them first.
As long as the Soul Lamp is not extinguished, it will not arouse the vigilance of the other sect.
With Nascent Soul pressing the Dan, the outcome is no surprise.
As for this Old Ancestor Zhou, it was just that he couldn't contact the two of them for the time being. How could he be scared away by this situation? Fang Xiao just had to wait silently.
……
"Everyone, two disciples of my sect have lost contact."
Zhou Xing, who was flying, suddenly spoke out.
"Being able to defeat a cultivator of the same level so quickly, it seems that this disciple of Ling Taichu is no ordinary person."
"What's the point of saying all this? Why don't you speed up or this guy will run away."
"I heard that the Tianlan Sect's identity token can be used to check whether there are fellow disciples around. I don't know if it is true or not. Fellow Daoist Du, can you explain this to us?"
"Indeed, I have checked. He is still nearby, but I cannot pinpoint his exact location."
"Hahaha, that's enough. With such a general area, there's no way we six Nascent Soul cultivators can let a mere Jindan cultivator escape."
"But if Fellow Daoist Du hadn't contacted us and even revealed many secret information, we would never have thought that the Tianlan Sect had been split to this extent."
"Humph, ever since Ling Taichu advanced to the God Transformation stage, he has been doing everything he can to attack my family. We are only doing this to protect ourselves. We can't just watch our family fall apart. Since they are so unkind, don't blame us for being unjust."
"Fellow Daoist Du is absolutely right. The Tianlan Sect has committed atrocities and has not even spared its own people. We will definitely work together to overthrow them, change the world, and help fellow Daoist and his people escape from the sea of suffering."
Who could have imagined that the family lineage in Tianlan Sect that lost Qin Qing's support not only no longer had the opportunity to occupy the sect's resources, but also had the things they pocketed constantly confiscated, and even many family disciples who endangered the sect were directly liquidated.
This also greatly reduced the power of the family lineage in the Tianlan Sect. It can be predicted that in the next few hundred years, if there are no major changes, the major families will gradually withdraw from the stage of the Tianlan Sect.
This also caused the family lineage to take desperate measures. Under the instigation of several Yuanying families headed by the Du family, 80% of the families made the decision.
Contact the other three holy places and find the right opportunity to rebel against the sect.
However, the three holy places and the forces hidden behind them obviously have greater ambitions.
That is to completely destroy the Tianlan Sect.
The six of them gathered here this time, not only to finalize the alliance, but also to agree on some preliminary plans.
However, the three True Lords of the Tianlan Sect are not people who can be easily defeated. Without complete preparation, they must not act rashly.
Now the appearance of Fang Xiao has given them a breakthrough.
As long as Fang Xiao can be captured, whether it is to instigate a rebellion and stab Ling Taichu in the back, or to kill him at a critical moment to confuse his mind, it will play an important role.
The six people decided to first go to the last marked location before Zhou Xingmen lost contact, and then gradually expand the search range based on the induction of the identity token.
However, they could never have imagined that Fang Xiao had not gone anywhere, but was just waiting for them quietly in front.
……
"coming."
Fang Xiao, who had been waiting for a long time, suddenly looked in the direction he came from.
"There are actually six of them, and two of them are in the middle stage of Yuanying. It seems that I am still a popular commodity. I can actually attract so many big fish to take the bait, Xing Yue."
"What do you want, Master?"
"Capture these six men alive."
"As ordered."
Since it is a gift to Yu Ling Taichu, his life must be spared.
Nowadays, the Map of the True Forms of the Five Mountains has been included in the category of spiritual treasures. If it is in the hands of the True Lord Huashen, it will be no problem to deal with True Lords of the same level.
Although Fang Xiao's cultivation level is not enough to bring it to its full potential, its suppressive power should not be underestimated.
Even a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage would find it difficult to move forward in it.
On the other side, before Fang Xiao discovered them, two mid-Nascent Soul cultivators had already found his trace.
"This kid hasn't left yet. He's just ahead."
"He killed someone but didn't leave. There must be something fishy going on."
"My two disciples found this kid in the South China Sea, so they shouldn't suspect the East Region."
"Could it be possible that he has some tricks left by Ling Taichu?"
"God-transforming methods? We are totally powerless to resist."
"This is absolutely impossible. As far as I know, when this boy left Tianlan Sect, Ling Taichu had not yet broken through to the Spiritual Transformation stage, and he has never returned to the sect since then. Even if he has, it is only the means used by Ling Taichu at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. He definitely does not have the means to break through to the Spiritual Transformation stage."
"Since Fellow Daoist Du is so sure, then there is no need to worry. I happen to have a method that is at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. Even if he really has it, we don't need to be afraid."
"Oh, Fellow Daoist Gongye actually possesses a peak Nascent Soul Technique. I wonder which of your clan brothers left it to you. Don't forget that Ling Taichu is a sword cultivator. Ordinary techniques of the same level may not be able to counter him."
"Humph, what's wrong with sword cultivation? How could the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder of my Gongye family be inferior to sword cultivation? If Brother Long is interested, we can have a discussion some other day."
"Alright, stop talking nonsense. Since we have Fellow Daoist Gongye's method as a backup, then don't be timid anymore. We six Yuanying have to be so cautious when dealing with a Jindan. If this gets out, wouldn't it make people laugh at us?"
