1900 Scheme
“Quickly look! It doesn’t seem to be because of her but the Black Sword Sect!” A shocked gasp came from the crowd.
Quite a few people flew up and looked over.
At this point, more than half the sky was covered by thick dark clouds, and everywhere was dark. Additionally, those clouds were quickly dispersing toward the city!
Lightning bolts swam crazily in the clouds.
A gigantic blood totem floated in midair.
“That’s… the Black Sword Sect’s totem!?” Someone with sharp eyes recognized the totem pattern and muttered in shock.
“These lightning bolts… they clearly triggered them!”
“It is them!” a young man suddenly said affirmatively in the crowd. “This is the Black Sword Sect’s usual method! Actually, they use this method in their so-called assessment every month! As long as a few people work together and execute a similar formation, they can rapidly trigger the lightning! They use these lightning bolts to select the cultivators in the assessment. As long as they’re talented and strong enough, they will pass the test! As for the remaining ones, their lives are taken away!”
The crowd gasped.
The street was deadly silent for a moment and rapidly broke into an uproar!
“Is that true? Are all those people dead?”
“I don’t think so. Less than ten percent of people can pass the Black Sword Sect’s monthly assessment. If the remaining ones all died, then… they must’ve harmed countless people in these two years?”
“Brother, I think you should be careful when you say such words… If the people from the Black Sword Sect hear it—”
That man snorted with laughter. “So what if they hear it? I personally witnessed it, and it’s true! Besides, it’s been so long. Did none of you suspect why those people who couldn’t enter the Black Sword Sect left Peach Blossom Dock and never appeared again?”
The crowd fell silent.
Actually, it wasn’t that nobody doubted this. However, the Black Sword Sect was very powerful in Peach Blossom Dock. Even if someone had suspicions, nobody really dared to verify it.
Now that someone suddenly spoke out about these things, it naturally caused people to falter.
“Everyone, if you have the time to suspect here, why don’t you think of what to do next!? This time, the Black Sword Sect is clearly bent on killing Rong Xiu and Shangguan Yue and are willing to risk everything for it! Even Mo Yun has personally taken action! If Peach Blossom Dock really collapses… it will be hard for everyone to escape!”
That man’s voice was low and powerful, causing quite a few people’s hearts to tighten.
They weren’t silly and knew that this wasn’t a joke.
In no time, quite a few people were displeased and had vengeance against the Black Sword Sect.
It was fine if they wanted to kill other people or sought death themselves. However, they couldn’t drag so many people from Peach Blossom Dock down with them!
After causing such a huge commotion, they clearly wanted everyone in the city to be affected!
If Peach Blossom Dock was ruined, none of the people here could escape!
“What should we do now?” someone hurriedly asked.
That man thought deeply for a moment. “From what I know, their formation is very strange. If more people join, it will be stronger. Just now, I saw that Mo Yun had already sent out a signal to gather everyone from the Black Sword Sect. I’m guessing he wants them to support him! I think… Why don’t we stop the people from the Black Sword Sect first!? If fewer people go over, there will be less force to sustain the formation, and it naturally won’t work!”
Once he said this, quite a few people exchanged glances. “Can… this work?”
“That’s the Black Sword Sect! We have so few people… Can we be their match?”
“Yeah! Besides, if Mo Yun blames us later on—”
That man raised his brows. “Everyone, if we don’t stop the Black Sword Sect today, we might not even live till tomorrow! Besides, the Black Sword Sect has dominated Peach Blossom Dock for so long. It’s time to teach them a lesson, am I right?!”
“Anyway, today, I—Duan Qingquan—will definitely fight with the Black Sword Sect till the end! Everyone, if you wish, follow me! If you don’t dare… we won’t force you! Anyway, we all have our own lives to live!”
Then, he really went on his toes and went toward the Black Sword Sect!
“Brother Duan! We’ll go with you!”
“Me too!”
“We’ll go too! That Black Sword Sect killed a few of my brothers. I wanted to take revenge a long time ago!”
…
On the brink of death, many people clenched their teeth and made the decision, hurriedly following him.
Actually, Duan Qingquan was right. Even if it were for themselves, they had to take action this time!
The people from the Black Sword Sect had already put Peach Blossom Dock in the center of danger. Why should they be merciful?
More and more people went to the Black Sword Sect!
Very quickly, they met the crowd that came out of the Black Sword Sect and planned to go to Mo Yun.
Seeing this scene, the crowd confirmed their previous guess: The Black Sword Sect is indeed betting on their entire faction’s forces!
“Stop them!” Duan Qingquan hollered and rushed forward first.
When the crowd at the side heard this, they immediately took action!
Before the people from the Black Sword Sect could react, a violent battle had exploded!
The two parties quickly stood together!
Most of the top forces in the Black Sword Sect had already been deployed earlier. Additionally, due to the Blue Peak incident, they had already lost quite a few members. Hence, now that they fought against Duan Qingquan and the rest, they didn’t take the upper hand.
The news spread quickly, and quite a few people in Peach Blossom Dock rushed over one after another. They clearly wanted to kill everyone in the Black Sword Sect!
Seeing that more and more people were coming, the Black Sword Sect members—who were nonchalant at first—finally panicked. What’s going on!? In such a short time, how could so many people rush over?!
…
In an isolated corner in the courtyard.
A figure hurriedly walked in.
In the yard, someone stood with his hands behind his back.
“Lord, Qingquan and the rest have already led people to kill the Black Sword Sect. We’ve also deployed all the forces in the city to go forward together. The Black Sword Sect is only strong on the surface. In no time, we should be able to take them down.”
That person turned around and had a handsome appearance with cold eyes. It was Yan Qing!
