Chapter 213

~7 min read 1,385 words

The situation seemed to have changed; Su Luoxing looked flustered and embarrassed, while Qi Xiong was full of vigor, feeling rather elated.

He gave a cold smile as he looked at Su Luoxing, and Qi Xiong shouted loudly.

"Spitting blood? Hah, junior brother, come, let them see what remnants of the He family are, and tell them whether I'm spitting blood."

Confused, Hong Zun still aimed the Formation Light Curtain at the He family members upon hearing that.

All the sect masters in the hall saw it, and Qi Xiong pointed even more at the formation and said.

"How about that? This is the He family's remnants, colluding with the Demonic Path, Old Monster Su, what else do you have to say?"

Hearing that, Su Luoxing gritted his teeth and let out an unwilling roar.

"If you say it is, then it is."

"Anyway, as long as I don't admit it, what evidence do you have?" But before his voice even faded, a somewhat weak voice came from within the formation—it was Hong Zun speaking.

"Um, I still have a recording stone here.............."

What the hell, why are you always messing with a recording stone for no reason? Do you have some weird fetish?

Hearing that, Su Luoxing's mindset truly exploded; he glared angrily at Qi Xiong, wishing he could tear him apart alive.

It's him, definitely a backup move by that old thing; there's no escape, that old thing is also scheming against himself.

In contrast, Qi Xiong, upon hearing that, felt ever more pleased and laughed out loud.

"Haha, good junior brother, quickly release it so Sect Master Su can take a look."

Qi Xiong truly didn't expect it; today Hong Zun's surprises for him keep coming one after another.

"What's a surprise? This is what a surprise really is."

As for Hong Zun, he grew more and more puzzled; normally the senior brother doesn't allow him to use the recording stone recklessly, so why is he so happy today?

Unable to figure it out, but since he had already spoken, Hong Zun still released the recording stone's image, projecting it via the Formation Light Curtain before the many sect masters.

On the screen, it clearly showed the He family patriarch personally admitting he was a disciple of the Blood Sect and demonstrating the Blood Hand technique—very clear and explicit.

As the recording stone's footage finished playing, Su Luoxing's teeth were about to shatter from grinding.

Having exhausted all his schemes and calculations, he never imagined it would end like this.

He was unwilling, so he still wanted to struggle a bit more.

"Hmph, even if that's the case, what does it prove? What does the He family joining the Blood Sect have to do with my Luo Xia Sect?"

"But He family's second miss, He Lu, is your Luo Xia Sect's Inner Disciple, right............."

Again that weak voice, again from Hong Zun's mouth; Su Luoxing snapped his head around, eyes bloodshot as he glared at that old face within the formation.

"If you don't shut the fuck up, you'll die; if it weren't for the formation blocking us, I'd fucking kill you."

On the contrary, Qi Xiong was delighted; today Hong Zun was especially sensible—good, really good.

Immediately, Qi Xiong gave Su Luoxing no chance and shouted loudly.

"Su Luoxing, even now you still want to spout nonsense?"

The same words, but spoken by someone else; Su Luoxing retorted, flustered and angry.

"Spouting nonsense? You're saying I'm spouting nonsense?"

"Still not admitting it?"

"What am I supposed to admit?"

"The He family has turned to demonic cultivators, the patriarch even joined the Blood Sect; surely all this behind the scenes is the work of your Luo Xia Sect, right?"

"You're talking nonsense; he's framing me, he's framing me!"

Su Luoxing anxiously shouted at Qi Qinghe and Yuan Taiji, but unfortunately, both of them had fallen into silence at that moment, not even glancing at Su Luoxing.

Now Su Luoxing was completely frantic; "You guys, say something! Wasn't it agreed that the three families would join forces? How come you've all turned mute now?"

Seeing that, Qi Xiong also gave the two a contemptuous glance, inwardly sneering.

Really clueless; even if you wanted to cooperate, you should look at the person—this stupid idiot, you dare to cooperate with him?

At this time, Qi Qinghe and the two indeed deeply felt the same.

Such a great situation was utterly ruined by Su Luoxing's meddling, leaving people truly speechless.

But likewise, could Qi Xiong have long noticed Su Luoxing's little tricks? So he directly dealt him a countermove?

He gave Qi Xiong a wary glance; if that were truly the case, then this old thing's scheming would be too deep to fathom.

The situation had already slipped out of control; Qi Xiong's counterattack came, and right off the bat it was a furious storm, giving Su Luoxing no chance at all.

"Hah, if it's not your Luo Xia Sect's doing, then let me ask you: Is He family's second miss, He Lu, your Luo Xia Sect's Inner Disciple or not?"

"As a true core member of the sect, Old Monster Su, don't tell me you don't know her."

Naturally he knows her, but how could he answer at this moment?

Seeing that, Qi Xiong didn't care and continued speaking.

"A family of an Inner Disciple has turned to the Demonic Path, the patriarch even joined the Demonic Sect and cultivated demonic arts—would your Luo Xia Sect not know about such a thing?"

"If it weren't for your Luo Xia Sect pulling the strings behind the scenes, how could a core disciple like He Lu possibly accomplish this without anyone noticing?"

"To achieve these things, there are only two possibilities: either the Luo Xia Sect has already colluded with the Demonic Path, totally fallen into demony, intending to scourge the world and destroy Dongzhou,"

"or it could be that the Luo Xia Sect's Third Elder, Yu Li, is originally a demonic sect spy, having lurked in the Luo Xia Sect for years; thus, as her disciple, He Lu is likewise a demonic practitioner—it's laughable that your Luo Xia Sect, after all these years, has noticed nothing at all."

"And this He family is merely a pawn the Demonic Path uses to contend against the various sects, intending to throw Dongzhou into chaos and create opportunities for the Demonic Path."

After saying all that, Su Luoxing was completely unable to utter a word; the many sect masters also wore complex expressions, glancing at Qi Xiong and then at Su Luoxing, wondering what they were thinking.

These sect masters actually all know deep down that the whole affair is a game of the four major sects.

After all, faced with such a big cake, who wouldn't want another bite? So their thinking is simple: whoever holds the advantage, they'll side with.

Originally, the Dao Yi Sect should have been destined to lose, but who would have thought the situation would turn around completely—instead, the Luo Xia Sect was driven into a desperate situation.

Moreover, the He family members, via the Formation Light Curtain, were also dumbfounded at this moment.

"What, we're endangering Dongzhou? My He family is just a small clan, only having a bit of influence in Yun City's tiny plot of land—how could we possibly endanger Dongzhou?"

How can our He family have someone this fierce?

By this point, Su Luoxing had been completely left speechless by what was said.

Seeing this, Qi Qinghe and Yuan Taiji, although secretly cursing Su Luoxing as a good-for-nothing, also knew they had to act now.

Otherwise, the gains from this clash of the two clans would likely be mostly taken by the Dao Yi Sect.

One thing Su Luoxing said was right: Qi Qinghe and Yuan Taiji also did not want to see the Dao Yi Sect dominate alone.

At the very least, everyone needs to have the ability to check each other; once a situation arises where one side dominates completely, it would be of no benefit to them.

By then, it would mean the Qing Yun Sect and the Huang Ji Sect would have to act according to the Dao Yi Sect's wishes; therefore, even if unwilling, they now had to reach out and help Su Luoxing.
