"Disciple Zheng-Fu!"
Of course, the first person to call Zheng-Fu had to be Elder Li-Xiao-Bai who led the group of Heaven Command Sect's disciples here to join this mission.
"Disciple Zheng-Fu respects Master Elder Li-Xiao-Bai, sir!" Zheng-Fu clasped his hands up in respect to the elder, before looking up and smiling.
Umm!
"It's good that you're safe. But why did you come out last?"
"That's right! And what about the other people inside? Why haven't they come out yet?" When Elder Li-Xiao-Bai finished speaking, a middle-aged elder of a medium-rank sect spoke.
"That's right! The other Dharma disciples, have you seen them?" a middle-aged man from another medium-rank sect also asked.
"I don't know either, sir. Because before I came out, I didn't see anyone," Zheng-Fu replied to the two middle-aged men. He thought it would be better for him not to mention the incident in which the guardian golden dragon emerged. Because if he spoke out, there might be more trouble happening.
"You didn't see them? Then it means that they are all dead?"
The expressions on the faces of the two middle-aged men and the other elders who did not see their disciples return were dejected and sad. Things like this often happened, so they just had to come to terms with it and accept it. Furthermore, they also knew about the evil plans of Devil Sects and Demon Sects about attacking their disciples.
"Well! The Dragon Deity Secret Land mission is now over. We should…"
"Who killed my disciples!!!"
But at that time, frightening shouts, accompanied by intense killing intent, suddenly rang out. Along with the appearance of the elder demon and many disciples of Devil Sects and Demon Sects that followed this elder demon.
Huh?
"What are you talking about? We don't know. We Dharma Sects don't do such evil things like that anyway. You guys shouldn't accuse us so easily!" said the middle-aged man Ran-She-San-Cou, the master who led the Sacred Heavenly Saber Divine Sect's disciple group there. He also unleashed his energy waves to dissipate the other party's pressure until it disappeared.
Huh!
"Ran-She-San-Cou, don't play around with nonsense. My disciples and I are spiritually connected. We can feel each other. Even if they were within the secret land, I could sense them. And I saw the face of the bastard who killed my disciples. Hurry up and send him out to be punished right now!" The elder demon did not give up and was determined to get the person who killed his disciples.
"I think you're already too old, Old Demon Xi-Leng-Gou! Do you think that with just your words you can capture any Dharma Sect disciple? Huh! If you think you can, try it!" Ran-She-San-Cou said with an indifferent face because he had also lost quite a bit of his disciples because of the other party's evil plans. But it was that he had to think carefully before making any moves, otherwise, a war between Dharma Sects and Evil Sects would definitely break out.
Tsk!
"You think I'm afraid of a little kid like you? You were just a little ignorant kid from yesterday. Don't think that I won't dare to deal with you!" The elder demon continued to speak to pressure and saw no one in his eyes. Although he knew that the middle-aged man had the same energy level as himself, their side had many elders with similar energy levels. If they really had to fight, they would surely win.
"If you dare, come in. We'd be glad to receive your guidance!" Elder Mou-Dong-Tian of the Sacred Infernal Divine Subdue Sky Sect suddenly stepped forward, before speaking with an angry and displeased face, because many of his disciples had also been killed.
"I think you all should calm down first! Elder Demon Xi-Leng-Gou, who is that disciple you said you saw?" A middle-aged woman wearing the senior master robe of the Sacred Heavenly Star Divine Sect spoke. She was the leader of the expedition of the Sacred Heavenly Star Divine Sect at this time and was also very famous for fairness.
Huh!
"The one who killed my disciples is that little bastard!"
"Me?"
The person the elder demon wanted was Zheng-Fu. He could clearly see Zheng-Fu's face from the memories of the disciples killed by Zheng-Fu.
"Elder Xi-Leng-Gou, are you sure it's him?" the middle-aged woman asked the elder demon again, furrowing her brows in disbelief. Because she sensed that Zheng-Fu was only a fourth-level Heavenly Star Stage cultivator, there was no way he could kill the Demon Sect's high-level disciples.
"It's absolutely him! And I want him to be sacrificed to my disciples' souls. If you don't hand him over to me, I'm going to catch him myself!" said the elder demon angrily.
This caused Elder Li-Xiao-Bai's expression to turn white. He did not think it was Zheng-Fu that this old demon wanted. But no matter what, he would not let Zheng-Fu be taken away.
"Disciple Zheng-Fu, is it really true as what Elder Demon Xi-Leng-Gou said?" Elder Li-Xiao-Bai knew in his heart that it had to be Zheng-Fu's action, but he had to ask.
"I don't know anything, Master Elder. When I was inside the secret land, I had to escape with my life from the dragon spirit monsters. How can I have time to kill Demon Sect disciples? Besides, my energy level is this low. Does Master Elder think I can do that, sir?" Zheng-Fu used his acting skills to the fullest in playing this role.
Ah!
Zheng-Fu's words made everyone nod in agreement. Because his energy level was only at the fourth level of the Heavenly Star Stage, there was no way to fight against the advanced Heavenly Star Stage cultivators. However, many elders already knew that it was Zheng-Fu's actions because earlier, Yi-Lin and her junior disciples had chatted about it.
"Damn it! Little bastard, do you dare to quibble like that? Today, if I don't kill you and offer your soul as a tribute to my disciple, I will never let this go!" The old demon did not care what Zheng-Fu said. In any case, he would take Zheng-Fu with him. And he would absolutely not give up.
Huh!
"As long as I'm here, no one can even think of doing anything with the Dharma Sect disciples!" When the negotiation method failed, Elder Mou-Dong-Tian let out a mischievous smile at the corner of his mouth, before taking out his weapon to prepare himself.
Shweng! Shweng! Shweng!
All the disciples and elders of the Sacred Infernal Divine Subdue Sky Sect also took out their weapons. Even the rest of the medium-rank sects and Sacred Sects did that too.
"This matter is still vague and inconclusive. I think we'd better investigate the truth first. Otherwise, there would definitely be a big war. I don't think Elder would want that to happen. Besides, I believe Heavenly Seven Stars Demon Deity Sect-Master wouldn't be happy with this. And if Elder Demon would still stubbornly take this disciple away, I'll have to participate in this battle too!"
The middle-aged woman who had always looked calm and neutral began to release her energy. The energy wave she released was even stronger than that of the elder demon and middle-aged man Ran-She-San-Cou.
Ah!
"Eighth-level Deity Soul stage cultivator!?" A discontented voice sounded from the elder demon as he sensed the middle-aged woman's energy level. Because her energy level was higher than his. And that would change the tendency of the battle results.
"Elder Xi-Leng-Gou, we're at a disadvantage. If a battle takes place, we may kill many of their disciples, but we would suffer no less than them, or maybe even heavier. So, today we should retreat first, sir!" The male demon beside the elder demon spoke with a worried expression because the initial advantage that the Devil Sects and Demon Sects possessed had already been changed by this middle-aged woman.
Tsk!
"All right! I'll spare that little bastard! But he must maneuver with this disciple of mine first. If he can defeat my disciple, I'll let this go!" The elder demon still did not give up his desire to deal with Zheng-Fu, but he could not go to war right now. So, he proposed a maneuver between Zheng-Fu and his disciple standing behind him, which was a second-level Deity Soul stage cultivator.
Huh?
"Are you crazy, Elder Demon? This kid is only a fourth-level Heavenly Star Stage cultivator, how can he fight with your disciple who is a second-level Deity Soul stage cultivator!" Elder Mou-Dong-Tian cursed in displeasure upon hearing that because their energy levels were too far apart.
"That's right, Elder, their energy levels are too different. I think it's impossible for them to maneuver!" the middle-aged woman disagreed too. Because if they really maneuver, Zheng-Fu would surely lose.
"This matter, I think we should let the young man decide it himself. As we're the elders, if he chooses not to fight, we'll help him no matter what happens after this. But if he chooses to fight, then everything depends on himself!" But Ran-She-San-Cou did not think like others. He thought it was better to leave this decision to Zheng-Fu.
"Will that be good, Master Elder Ran-She-San-Cou? I think we should stop him because if you let him maneuver, he might…"
"Thank you all Master Elders for your concern. As for the maneuver, I have no problem, sir," before the Holy Heavenly Blossom Sect's elder could finish her words, Zheng-Fu interrupted. "But I want to know when the maneuver is over, what do I get? If I lose, I die, but if I win, what do I gain? Having survived and everything is over, is it only that? That is not worth it," Zheng-Fu asked. In this maneuver, he was at a complete disadvantage. If when it was finished, he did not get anything, then he could not understand why he should waste time on it.
Ah!
Zheng-Fu's words shocked everyone. It was true what he said. The other party suddenly came to accuse him and would give him a maneuver without him doing anything wrong. It was just the other party's desire to bring the maneuver in exchange for releasing him, which was ridiculous and wasted a lot of time.
"Arrogant human kid! All right! If you can defeat my disciple, I'll give you this bottle of the tenth-level divine pill!"
Huh?
Tenth-level divine pills!?
"Then how can I be sure that what is in the bottle are actually tenth-level pills? And when I win, you will really give it to me?" Zheng-Fu did not trust this elder demon at all. He, therefore, came up with all kinds of precautions to make everything fair.
Huh!
"You can let Master Mie-Xiang-Qi help you check if it's genuine. When you have accepted the offer to maneuver with my disciple, I'll let her hold the flask, and when you win, you can take it!" the elder demon replied very confidently. He thought that his disciple would definitely win.
"I agree! I'm willing to maneuver with your disciple!"
