Chapter 487

"Is Cui Mingchong leading this matter?" Gao Lin said.

Xu Yang had heard of Cui Mingchong. This person was not a disciple of Lihuo Peak but the first disciple of the Beast King Peak Master, with a cultivation base at Major Success in Marrow Cleansing. It was said that he might become the Peak Master of Beast King Peak in the future.

In fact, Gao Lin was about the same. When Elder Huoyun retired in the future, if nothing went wrong, he would also succeed Elder Huoyun and become one of the Elders of Lihuo Peak.

"Hmm!" Lu Chuping nodded.

Xu Yang and the others didn't pay attention to the conversation between Gao Lin and Lu Chuping, found a place where no one was, sat down, ate some jerky, and then leaned against the mountain rocks to sleep, conserving their energy and waiting for the upcoming great battle.

He didn't know how much time had passed when Xu Yang was pushed awake.

Opening his eyes to look, he saw a figure like an iron tower standing in the middle, with Lu Chuping, Gao Lin, and a man with a face like jade standing behind this person.

"This person should be Cui Mingchong!" Xu Yang thought to himself.

He also recognized the person standing with Gao Lin and Lu Chuping; it was Yan Guiyun, the third of the Ten Elites List, whom he had seen in Heavenly Wind Valley, but they had no friendship and had never spoken.

"Come over!" Cui Mingchong said.

All the disciples who stood up from the ground walked quickly to Cui Mingchong and gathered together.

"My name is Cui Mingchong; you all should have heard of me, so I won't introduce myself too much. Let me talk about this mission. This mission is to wipe out the Blood Lotus Sect demons hiding in Autumn Water Manor.

I won't tell you how bad the people of the Blood Lotus Sect are; you only need to know that they kill one disciple of our Profound Heaven Sect whenever they can. If we don't want to be killed by them one day, we can only kill them first."

Cui Mingchong didn't say any sentimental words, just stated the facts.

"Of course, I won't let everyone work for nothing. For this mission, everyone is guaranteed one hundred contribution points. Killing one who has just entered Marrow Cleansing rewards one hundred contribution points; killing one at Minor Success in Marrow Cleansing rewards two hundred contribution points; killing one at Major Success in Marrow Cleansing rewards three hundred contribution points.

Below Marrow Cleansing, those with Major Success in Gang Qi get forty contribution points, Minor Success in Gang Qi gets thirty contribution points, and those who have just entered Gang Qi get twenty contribution points.

Below Gang Qi, everyone gets ten contribution points."

No matter how much was said, it wasn't as useful as tangible benefits. Once the reward rules were announced, the bored crowd's eyes immediately lit up.

Going to help the sect guard its industries, working hard for a month, wouldn't even earn one hundred contribution points. This time, even if one didn't kill anyone, there were one hundred contribution points to be had.

Even Xu Yang was somewhat moved. If he worked hard this time, he might be able to gather enough contribution points to exchange for the Marrow Cleansing realm elixir formula.

"Remember, don't be soft-hearted. People of the demonic path are cunning. No matter who it is, kill them first. Now follow the Senior Brother who brought you here and listen to his command."

The crowd scattered.

Gao Lin waved to Xu Yang and the others, then plunged into the jungle.

After walking for a while, Gao Lin transmitted to Xu Yang and the others: "Next, pay attention to concealing your figures, and use voice transmission for speaking."

In their line of sight, they saw a courtyard covering a vast area on a distant hillside, with deep courtyards and high walls, magnificent and golden, with flying eaves and arched beams.

"This is Autumn Water Manor!" Gao Lin transmitted.

Hong Lei couldn't help but transmit: "This Autumn Water Manor is one of the big tea merchants in Tanshan County; I really didn't expect it to be one of the strongholds of the Blood Lotus Sect. Back when I was taking the martial arts examination, I had thought that if I failed, I would join Autumn Water Manor as a guard."

Only then did everyone know that Hong Lei was actually from this Tanshan County.

"Since Senior Brother Hong Lei knows this place, can you tell us about the strength of this Autumn Water Manor?" a Senior Brother named Zhu Yuan transmitted.

They were all disciples under Elder Huoyun.

Hong Lei shook his head: "The outside world rumors that the owner of Autumn Water Manor, Qiu Jiande, has a cultivation base of Minor Success in Gang Qi. This is clearly false information. I don't know too much about Autumn Water Manor either; everyone should treat it as if we know nothing."

Gao Lin nodded: "Senior Brother Hong Lei is right. This Autumn Water Manor has always been hiding; we cannot look at them using old information.

According to my discussion with Cui Mingchong, we are responsible for surrounding it from the north. If we unfortunately run into people from Autumn Water Manor on the way, solve it silently if possible. If we startle the snake, immediately send a signal to notify others."

After the instructions were finished, he led Xu Yang and the others to sneak to the north of Autumn Water Manor. Estimating that others had reached their designated positions, the group began to climb the mountain.

Gao Lin had the strongest cultivation, Major Success in Marrow Cleansing, so he walked at the very front, while Xu Yang and the others were dispersed on both sides, walking behind him.

Zhu Yuan and the others were all somewhat excited, fantasizing about cutting off a few heads to exchange for elixirs for tendon-changing and marrow-cleansing to cultivate when they returned.

The group slowly sneaked to the middle of the mountain without encountering anyone from Autumn Water Manor.

"Enemy attack!"

Suddenly, a loud roar resounded through the sky, followed by a loud boom, and a huge firework exploded in the firmament.

Gao Lin's expression changed: "Not good, someone startled the snake. Hurry!"

Immediately, he couldn't care about anything else and immediately used lightness skills to rush toward the top of the mountain. Soon, the sounds of fighting reached everyone's ears.

"Speed up!"

Gao Lin was anxious, but he couldn't abandon Xu Yang and the others.

After leaping a few more times, the terrain in front suddenly opened up. A vermilion courtyard wall more than two meters high appeared in front, and the branches and leaves of ancient trees stretched out from the courtyard wall, with the sound of running coming from inside.

"It's the people from the Profound Heaven Sect, we've been discovered, kill our way out."

"Damn it, how could the Profound Heaven Sect discover this place."

From the large courtyard came angry roars.

"It really is a stronghold of the Blood Lotus Sect!"

Xu Yang's eyes narrowed slightly; he had already heard a familiar voice, it was exactly the voice of the skinny bamboo pole who had led people to kill into the Earth Vein Fire Valley twice.

"Kill our way in, don't let anyone go!"

Gao Lin's killing intent surged, and crimson Gang Qi rippled from his body, the pressure like a surging wave crashing down.

"This Senior Brother has some skills."

Xu Yang felt Gao Lin's aura and found it was much stronger than the two Blood Lotus Sect Major Success in Marrow Cleansing experts he had killed, bringing him a strong sense of crisis.

Gao Lin quickly reached the corner of the wall and leaped up without hesitation.

A sudden change occurred!

Just as he jumped onto the courtyard wall, a large hand carrying the force of a collapsing mountain and splitting earth struck through the air, emitting a sound like a dull thunder.

"Not good!"

Gao Lin's expression changed drastically. Fortunately, he had been prepared, and he struck out with a palm directly.

"Boom!"

The two palms collided, emitting a vibration like iron being struck. The surging force swept outward, and the courtyard wall more than two meters high collapsed instantly.

Gao Lin groaned and flew backward in mid-air.

"Senior Brother Gao!"

Zhu Yuan and Hong Lei's expressions changed drastically. Before they could see what was happening behind the courtyard wall, Gang Qi was blasted in from the air.

"Kill our way out from here."

A roar came from behind the courtyard wall, followed by a figure with disheveled hair shattering the Gang Qi blasted by Zhu Yuan and the others, rushing out from behind the collapsed courtyard wall. The powerful energy directly shook away the dust, followed by three or four people.

"Kill them all before leaving!" the figure with disheveled hair roared, two rays of blood-red light shooting from their eyes, striding toward Hong Lei, who was at the front.

Hong Lei's expression changed drastically. This person could blast Gao Lin away with one palm; although it was a sneak attack, it was enough to show their strength.

"Junior Brother Hong Lei, retreat!"

Fortunately, at this time, Gao Lin had already killed his way back. Amidst a crisp sound like a dragon's roar, the precious blade behind his back was unsheathed, and a sharp blade aura like a blood-colored waterfall slashed down toward the figure with disheveled hair.

Hong Lei retreated in a panic.

"Half-spiritual weapon?"

The person with disheveled hair grinned, blood light surging on their body, and the violent aura erupted like a volcano.

Their joints roared, and they stepped forward and threw a punch, actually intending to use their flesh and blood to resist the blade aura slashed by Gao Lin with a half-spiritual weapon.

"Kill!"

At the same time, the Blood Lotus Sect disciples following this person also moved. Several people followed behind the person with disheveled hair, bursting out from the gap in the wall, rushing toward Xu Yang and the others, really intending to kill all of Xu Yang and the others before leaving.

"Idiot, Li Ye's brain isn't normal, I won't accompany you to be crazy." Zhang Sai was also in this group, but he only wanted to escape and didn't want to kill the disciples of the Profound Heaven Sect.

Li Ye was warlike and had strong combat power; if something went wrong, he could escape at any time, but he didn't have this ability.

Taking advantage of these companions attracting the attention of the Profound Heaven Sect disciples, his figure rushed toward a direction where no one was.

"Whoosh!"

A sound of breaking air suddenly came from his ear. Zhang Sai's eyelids jumped, and he stopped abruptly, only to see a golden finger force pass before his eyes, piercing through the wall beside him.

"You want to escape?"

A familiar voice rang out. Zhang Sai looked and saw Xu Yang pouncing from the side like a vigorous hunting leopard, the force of the wind surging.

"Xu Yang, it's you, you beast!" Zhang Sai was both shocked and angry.

No one else paid attention to him, but Xu Yang kept his eyes on him.

"Beast, you have led people to kill many of our fellow disciples of the Profound Heaven Sect many times; today you should pay with your life."

A violent aura erupted from Xu Yang's body, and force was crazily poured into his palms.

Bear King Palm!

No testing, no reservation. Since his cultivation couldn't be hidden today, he would kill a few more people and earn more contribution points.

"Beast!" Zhang Sai cursed loudly.

How could you have the nerve to say such things? Every time, you were the first to escape. ===== CHAPTER 488 =====
