Chapter 1602: Mu Long Clan Returns, Sects Assemble

On the other side of the Mangshan Mountain Range, the Mu Long Clan also arrived; this time the leader was Mu Long Wen Long, the familiar Mu Long Clan reappeared, this time they brought only a few people, the old acquaintance Mu Long Jie died, leading a batch of Mu Long Clan disciples who perished in that world and never returned.

Elder Mu Long Neng said coldly: "Wen Long, ahead is the Mangshan Mountain Range; Diewumeng is about to undergo tribulation; when will we intervene to stop her tribulation?"

"The deaths of Grand Elder Mulong Tian and Second Elder Mu Long Di must be avenged; the Mangshan Demon Palace must be destroyed; we will station ourselves in the Mangshan Mountain Range and then gradually infiltrate Cangzhou."

"This time we cannot fail again; since our failure in Cangzhou, our actions have never gone smoothly; I suspect it is related to the people of that world, and that world's people should be hidden within the Mangshan Mountain Range, deep in Longshe Shan."

"Last time we could not enter Longshe Shan; this time, no matter what, we must enter Longshe Shan, find those hidden masterminds, and only by killing them can our Mu Long Clan be at ease."

After several consecutive failures, the Mu Long Clan reassessed the Mangshan Mountain Range, discovering that each failure was related to a certain place: the Longshe Shan inside the Mangshan Mountain Range, and the deaths of the Grand Elder and Second Elder were also related to this place.

Also, the death of Elder Mu Long Chen occurred there as well, forcing them to be cautious; they must investigate everything, then focus on Longshe Shan, and must kill everyone inside Longshe Shan to properly honor the spirits of the deceased clansmen.

Elder Mu Long Neng did not want to repeat past mistakes, nor did he wish to die here; he must investigate and then destroy Longshe Shan, otherwise every Mu Long Clan operation would be obstructed by Longshe Shan, influenced by them, leading to mission failure.

The Mu Long Clan cannot afford another failure; previous failures had a huge impact, many clansmen died, and several consecutive failures have cost many lives.

"I know, Elder Mu Long Neng." Mu Long Wen Long harbors a shadow regarding the Mangshan Mountain Range; he does not want to enter or approach Longshe Shan; this time he came voluntarily, seeking to kill those inside Longshe Shan and dispel his shadow, otherwise inner demons would arise, causing trouble.

They must be killed early, not allowed to grow; he sensed that the entities inside Longshe Shan are not yet strong enough, otherwise they would not remain hidden there without acting, indicating they are still weak and need time to grow.

He must go there, kill those inside, only then can his mind become clear.

"Longshe Shan must be destroyed, regardless of whether they are the ones we seek."

"Moreover, Diewumeng's tribulation this time must not succeed; otherwise, she will become a grave threat to our Mu Long Clan, even more dangerous than Zhang Mang."

Elder Mu Long Neng nodded approvingly: "Wen Long, that's an excellent thought; Longshe Shan must be destroyed, Diewumeng must die; if possible, our Mu Long Clan can cooperate with the Corpse Refining Sect to destroy the Mangshan Demon Palace; those several Demon Kings are the ones who killed Grand Elder Mu Long Di and Second Elder Mu Long Ren; this grudge must be repaid."

That was one of the few battles in which the Mu Long Clan suffered losses; they had never endured such a defeat before, losing the Grand Elder and then the Second Elder; this score must be settled, otherwise how would the other powers of Cangzhou and Lingzhou view the Mu Long Clan?

For the clan's dignity, reputation, and face, we must retaliate, severely retaliate, so they know the Mu Long Clan cannot be offended.

"Let's go, we'll enter the Mangshan Mountain Range; Wen Long, you lead the people to Longshe Shan, quickly find those inside and kill them all." Elder Mu Long Neng gave the order; beforehand they had discussed it, Elder Mu Long Neng would monitor Diewumeng and act at the crucial moment to prevent her breakthrough from failing.

What Mu Long Wen Long needs to do is break the formation of Longshe Shan, expose what lies inside, let everyone know who is hidden there, so everyone can jointly target them; they know the Corpse Refining Sect also watches Longshe Shan, but unfortunately that formation cannot be breached, so naturally they cannot act.

"No problem." Mu Long Wen Long followed, and the two flew swiftly toward the location of the Mangshan Demon Palace.

Outside the Mangshan Mountain Range.

The Jichen Sect also sent people, though only a few; Elder Feng Ling led the way, with several disciples behind, not rushing into the Mangshan Mountain Range but standing outside, arms crossed, gazing at the distant dark sky, heavy clouds pressing down, lightning gathering.

The oppressive aura continually made them feel the threat of death; Elder Feng Ling raised his hand: "Everyone, stop; without my order, no one may enter the Mangshan Mountain Range."

"Yes, Seventh Elder."

The disciples behind obeyed the order and would not defy the elder's command.

Not far away.

A figure appeared, leaning against a tree, sitting on the ground, unaffected.

He held a jug of wine, drank facing the sky; the wine fragrance spread everywhere, yet no one dared to approach.

Beside him lay a sword planted in the ground, its blade still sheathed, yet a Technique emanated; anyone approaching would instinctively halt and then retreat, for that Technique was terrifyingly powerful, capable of slaying anything.

"Gurgle."

He took a gulp of wine, Lingjian Zhenren became intoxicated; he glanced at the sky above the Mangshan Mountain Range, his gaze gradually shifting to Longshe Shan, his eyes emitting a cold light that seemed to pierce the layered peaks and fall upon the formation of Longshe Shan.

His Technique spread invisibly, causing nearby beasts and humans alike to flee.

"Junior Sister, have you come?"

He withdrew his Technique, remained seated, leaning against the tree, and snored loudly.

This scene fell into the eyes of Wu Mie Zhenren; she raised her hand: "Tian Du Men disciples, hear my order; all stand in place; without my command, no one may move."

"Yes, Elder." Those disciples felt the sharpness of that Technique and dared not provoke Lingjian Zhenren.

Wu Mie Zhenren looked over and murmured: "The Tian Jian Men people have also come, still this Lingjian Zhenren; tsk tsk, it seems Diewumeng's tribulation has caused a great commotion, even he has arrived, extraordinary."

"It seems Diewumeng will suffer this time; will Lingjian Zhenren have come for her sake, or...?"

She always had a premonition that Lingjian Zhenren's purpose might be the same as hers.

This man is not easy to deal with; his Technique and hers clash, neither yielding, yet it does not provoke a battle; they restrain themselves, as swordsmen encountering another swordsman, naturally feeling excited.

Both clearly understood that now is not the time to fight, maintaining restraint.
