The Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect could be considered the first sworn enemy of Qin Wushuang in the Xuan Yuan Mound. They were also a force in which he would fight against until his last gasp.
Since the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect hadn’t yet given up their intent to annihilate the Qin Clan, Qin Wushuang was always being cautious of them. Now that a group of Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect people have arrived in the Illusion Heavenly Lake, how could Qin Wushuang not be suspicious?
“Did you still want to experience what you had before?” Qin Wushuang said with a somewhat strict tone as he saw that Luo Zhong had fallen into silence.
Luo Zhong’s entire body trembled. He knew that if he were to experience that one more time, he would lose his fragile life. Instantly he begged, “The information comes from the subordinate intelligence agency from the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect.”
“Subordinate intelligence agency?” Qin Wushuang frowned. “The intelligence of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect could extend to the Illusion Heavenly Lake?”
“No, the Subordinate Intelligence Agency which I speak of is, in fact, a few subordinate powerhouses the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect secretly supports. These powerhouses are responsible for collecting information for the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. Even so, we acquired this information coincidentally. Of course, our intelligence system could not have covered the Illusion Heavenly Lake. Only by coincidence have we acquired this secret information from the Illusion Heavenly Lake.”
“Exactly how did you get it?” when Qin Wushuang saw that he wasn’t giving any details, he asked with a stern tone.
Luo Zhong immediately said, “It’s the human countries, the intelligence net from the human countries.”
“The human countries?” This information made Qin Wushuang feel even more surprised. Human countries, how could it be from the human countries?
“Yes, our Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect supports a major powerhouse within the human countries that is called the Nine Palace Faction. This Nine Palace Faction has martial artists specifically responsible for collecting information for the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. Although they are not strong, they wander around all the major Forbidden Spiritual Zones with the identity of freelance martial artists. One of them had acquired this piece of information unexpectedly.”
Although Luo Zhong’s words sounded somewhat out of the blue, it was difficult for Qin Wushuang to find a flaw. The Nine Palace Faction? Qin Wushuang and the Stargaze Palace had almost annihilated all the elite warriors of the Nine Palace Faction. At least, they had killed the three great chiefs of the Nine Palace Faction.
What waves could this Nine Palace Faction still make? They could still find information for the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect? Although Qin Wushuang was harboring suspicion, he could not see any flaws in Luo Zhong’s expression.
“From your Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, how many people have come this time?”
“Fi… Five.”
“Who are they?”
Now, Luo Zhong was frightened stiff. “There is Senior Brother Luo Yi who was just gone and I. There are three leaders that are to come later. They are Tian Mingshan, the Third Dao Warrior, Shakyamuni Chongguang and Shakyamuni Silver Hoop.”
Qin Wushuang nodded secretly for he knew that the psychological barrier of this Luo Zhong had completely collapsed. Since it was impossible for him to lie again, he chased to ask, “What method of contact do you guys use?”
Now, Luo Zhong only wished to not suffer and could no longer care about the problem with betraying his sect. As if pouring beans out of a bamboo tube, he narrated systemically in full detail, “Before, Senior Brother Luo Yi and the three higher-ups were contacting each other through a communication jade plate. Now with Senior Brother Luo Yi gone, I am responsible to wait for the three higher-ups.”
“Do you have the communication jade plate?” Qin Wushuang found this to be disbelieving.
“I… I truly do not have it. I am with Senior Brother Luo Yi and I am not qualified to contact the officials, so they didn’t equip me with the communication jade plate,” Luo Zhong explained in a hurry.
Qin Wushuang had been staring into the eyes of Luo Zhong and saw that he did not make up his expression. Inwardly, he thought that indeed, they could still use their communication jade plate whereas he could not use his. They must have played some sort of trick on his inside the Immortal Leaf Flying Boat. Since he could not find out the main threads of this matter, it seemed the answer would only be exposed if he got to the Karakorum Immortal Clan.
However, since this Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect was scheming something, he must not let them have what they wanted. At that moment, he glared at Luo Zhong and asked coldly, “According to your information, do you know what the treasure is?”
“I heard… I heard it’s a cave belong to a Supreme Dao spiritual beast. For every hundred years the Supreme Dao spiritual beast trains, it will sleep for the next ten years. Now is the time that the spiritual beast should have entered into hibernation. Next to the cave of the spiritual beast, a vine has grown. It’s possible that it’s the Supreme Dao fruit induced by the bloodline of the spiritual beast. If a person were to consume it, it could help an elite warrior of the Common Mysterious Stage to advance to the Supreme Dao Stage!”
“Advance to the Supreme Dao Stage?” Inwardly, Qin Wushuang’s heart jumped. If such goods existed, certainly the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect would exert all of their efforts to seize this aid.
Supreme Dao…
The Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect now lacked a Supreme Dao Warrior! If the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect had an elite warrior of the Supreme Dao level, the Qin Clan would definitely be at an extreme disadvantage!
“Si… Sir, I’ve said everything I can… please let me go.” An anguished wail filled Luo Zhong’s tone.
“You want to live?” Qin Wushuang gave an eerie smile and asked.
“Yes, sir, please let me live. For someone as tiny and powerless as me, I would not be a threat to you, you…”
A smile spilled over the corner of Qin Wushuang’s mouth. “If you want to live, it’s simple, I will let you live. It’s not without a price, however.”
“A price?” Fear filled Luo Zhong’s eyes.
Qin Wushuang revealed a light smile. “Rest assured, I will not let you lack an arm or a leg. What you need to do is be my dog, understand?”
Luo Zhong’s entire body trembled. However, at the brink of life and death, how could he dare to say no? He only mumbled, “I am one of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, even if I am to be your dog, I am afraid the sect will not agree.”
“Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect? Don’t worry.” Qin Wushuang’s tone sounded cold. “The Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect will not exist for too much longer.”
A surprised look shone from Luo Zhong’s eyes. “No… No longer exist?”
Suddenly, Luo Zhong saw a light flash before him and a burst of meteor light shot into his forehead like an arrow. Next, as if a nail had penetrated his consciousness, it became completely fuzzy. Gradually, his entire body became flabby as he lost his consciousness.
Through much practice, Qin Wushuang had completely grasped the puppet skills. Without needing the Moon Palace Jade Hare to exert the practice, he was capable of performing the puppet technique himself. Additionally, as his strength and stage kept upgrading, he was able to perform this puppet skills much more skillfully than the Moon Palace Jade Hare.
Only five people had come from the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect and Luo Yi was left. The remaining three were Tian Mingshan and those two Shakyamuni.
Unfortunately…
Qin Wushuang felt extremely pitiful. He wanted to use this opportunity to kill all people from the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. Too bad Luo Tongtian was not present.
If Luo Tongtian had come, Qin Wushuang would not have minded to use that Sky Pilfered Pill and upgrade himself into the Perfect Void Martial Stage. He would then summon the final sealed spiritual beasts and kill Luo Tongtian.
Now, the most terrifying part of Luo Tongtian was if he entered a fanatical state. Since this Luo Tongtian was already mad, it would be a great harm to the Qin Clan if one allowed this lunatic to enter the Supreme Dao Stage.
Luo Zhong woke up slowly. When he saw Qin Wushuang, he was completely brainwashed. He called with a low voice, “Master.”
Qin Wushuang waved his hand. “Luo Zhong, from now on, the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect is your enemy. If you help me to get rid of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, you will have a way to live, do you understand?”
“Yes, Master.” The person being controlled by the puppet skill would never show resistance through their consciousness. If this were to happen, the divine venom parasite would flare up and shatter his Primordial Spirit immediately.
“If Tian Mingshan and his people are to come, you should hold them and tell them that Luo Yi asked them to wait here. Understand?”
“Yes, master.”
After Qin Wushuang had settled him, he left by going back the way he came. When he returned to the slope, Jiu Fang Yunfei was still waiting for him there. Clearly, there were less people at the slope and Xin Wuji’s group had also left.
“Where did all these people go?” Qin Wushuang found it somewhat strange.
“They all went in. The Ten Thousand Flower Valley is already open,” Jiu Fang Yunfei said with a smile. “These people strived to be the first and feared to be the last. They feared that they could not sign up if they were a step behind.”
Qin Wushuang chuckled mischievously. “Even that Xin Wuji went to join the show?”
Jiu Fang Yunfei replied, “Should we go take a look?”
Qin Wushuang was more concerned about the matters relating to the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect as he said to Jiu Fang Yunfei, “Go in first, but remember to not act impulsively. Even when you see your close female friend, do not be impetuous.”
Jiu Fang Yunfei was a smart person, of course he knew the stakes were high. “Don’t worry, I know. Do you have other things to take care?”
“The Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect is a major trouble hidden within. I cannot rest easy if these problems aren’t solved,” Qin Wushuang said with a determined tone and patted Jiu Fang Yunfei’s shoulder. “Brother Jiu Fang, I cannot accompany you to go in. If there is still time left, I will regroup with you later.”
Jiu Fang Yunfei was touched. “You don’t need my help?”
Qin Wushuang did not have the slightest intention of looking down at Jiu Fang Yunfei as he gave a confident smile. “Don’t worry, I can deal with those three people.”
Jiu Fang Yunfei nodded. “Ok, I am confident in your abilities. Brother Wushuang, take care!”
“Take care!”
After the two of them parted ways, Qin Wushuang was not in a rush to go. Instead, he wandered around the surrounding area before leaving. After leaving he summoned the Moon Palace Jade Hare and instructed, “On this route, if there are any suspicious people, especially if Xin Wuji’s people are coming, you must inform me.”
This was the advantage of the sealed scroll for it gave Qin Wushuang enough manpower to practice caution. Although he was not allowed to bring contracted combat beasts, Qin Wushuang had twelve spiritual beasts to order from the sealed scrolls. Besides the two most powerful, the rest could be put into combat at anytime.
Qin Wushuang walked to the previously hidden cave with his fast motion. Before he approached the mountain cave, Qin Wushuang suddenly stopped his footsteps. A burst of explosive sound had caught his ear as he could hear some people engaged in battle in the valley ahead!
This valley was several dozen miles away from the mountain cave. When Qin Wushuang was returning from there previously, it had still been calm. How come such a desperate battle had exploded all of a sudden?
Qin Wushuang did not dare to neglect this scene. This was not the Xuan Yuan Mound, but the Illusion Heavenly Lake. Every step would be staggering. He would not want to push himself into endless troubles due to his own negligence or carelessness.
Using his evading body motion technique, Qin Wushuang hid his body among the void. He approached the valley slowly for he wanted to see who was engaged in battle.
Within Qin Wushuang’s vision, Tian Mingshan and his two major Shakyamuni were engaged in an intense battle with two strange men in black.
These two men in black moved at high speeds and seemed to possess great strength. However, under the siege of Tian Mingshan and the two Shakyamunis, they could not gain much of an advantage.
The two parties were in a stalemate.
Qin Wushuang was completely stunned, who were these two men dressed in black? How did they get into battle with the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect? Could they be people of the Emei Daoist Sect? They were clearly men as they did not appear to be female martial artists from the Emei Daoist sect.
