Chapter 8: Let's Destroy a Sect for Fun

After the four walked out of Changsheng Hall, they saw a blue-clothed man flying over from afar, landing in the plaza before Changsheng Hall's gate.

The blue-clothed man had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, carried a sword on his back, and looked quite handsome and unrestrained.

Of course, compared to Li Zhangsheng, he was naturally far inferior!

That blue-clothed man seemed somewhat hurried; after landing in the plaza, seeing Xiao Jue and Luo Qingxue, smiles of warmth immediately appeared on their faces.

"Xiao Jue, Qingxue!" the sword-browed, bright-eyed youth quickly walked over, greeting them with a chuckle, though his gaze was mostly on Luo Qingxue.

However, when his gaze fell on Li Zhangsheng, his expression changed, as if facing a great enemy!!

The blue-clothed man considered himself quite handsome; when out and about, he rarely encountered anyone whose looks matched his own.

Until now, he had seen Li Zhangsheng!

Upon seeing Li Zhangsheng's elegant, otherworldly demeanor like that of an immortal, he felt for the first time in his life a sense of shame at his own inadequacy!!

Damn it, how can there be such a handsome person in this world!

The blue-clothed man shook his head, muttering, "Who is this pretty boy? Why is he so close to Qingxue?!"

Why do I feel a full sense of crisis upon seeing him!

"Huh?" Li Zhangsheng also noticed the change in the blue-clothed man's expression, feeling a bit strange!

It seems I've never seen this blue-clothed man before; why does he look at me so cautiously, as if afraid of losing something?

What a strange person!

"Liu Yiming, how'd you come?" Xiao Jue narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing the somewhat dusty blue-clothed man, and asked curiously.

Only seeing Liu Yiming approach Xiao Jue and the others, he greeted Grand Elder Shen Qingcang, then spoke with righteous indignation:

"Xiao Jue, Qingxue, I heard that brat Qin Shou brought people to your Changsheng Sect to propose marriage?"

"Where is that little bastard? If he dares to use his influence to force your Changsheng Sect to make Qingxue marry him, I'll cut him in half with a single sword!"

As he spoke, Liu Yiming looked around but did not see any members of the Shenxu Sect!!

"Who is this?" At that moment, Li Zhangsheng patted Shen Qingcang's shoulder.

Only then did Shen Qingcang quietly introduce him to Li Zhangsheng's ear.

Li Zhangsheng then learned that this blue-clothed man was the Holy Son of the Liuyun Sect, which is a quasi-Emperor-level lineage bordering the Changsheng Sect to the north.

The Liuyun Sect has always been on good terms with the Changsheng Sect; long ago, Emperor Xuanji once saved their Elder Ancestor's life, and the two sects have always supported each other.

Among the three neighboring sects, the Liuyun Sect is a good neighbor.

As for this man named Liu Yiming, he is a boon companion of Xiao Jue and also a suitor of Luo Qingxue, though Luo Qingxue has never been fond of him, nor does she dislike him.

"Oh, so he's Qingxue's lackey!" Li Zhangsheng realized.

No wonder he looks so rushed; it seems he fears the Changsheng Sect, under pressure, will marry Qingxue to Qin Shou, allying with the Shenxu Sect, so he came alone!

He's still a deep-feeling seed!!

Meanwhile, Xiao Jue, on the other side, shook his head and sighed teasingly at Liu Yiming: "Ah, Liu Yiming, you're late!"

"No way?" Liu Yiming, hearing this, suddenly grew anxious; he looked at Luo Qingxue: "Qingxue, the Shenxu Sect and Qin Shou are no good; you can't marry him."

"Come on, Qingxue, let's not be bound by these vulgar sect customs; I'll take you far away to roam the world!"

Luo Qingxue gave Liu Yiming a look of contempt!

Smack!

Xiao Jue then slapped Liu Yiming on the head: "What are you thinking? Qin Shou is no good, and what good are you?"

"You want to take my junior sister and roam the world—what are you dreaming of?"

As brothers, Xiao Jue naturally knows what kind of character Liu Yiming has.

Usually he just pretends to be pure in front of Luo Qingxue; elsewhere, hum, who doesn't know the licentious deeds of the Great Holy Son Liu?

This kid is no good bird either.

"Well, at least he's better than Qin Shou." Liu Yiming then said seriously: "No, did your Changsheng Sect really marry Qingxue to that bastard?"

"Impossible!" Xiao Jue said.

"What about the Shenxu Sect people?" Liu Yiming seemed to let out a breath.

He looked around; he had heard the Shenxu Sect people had already arrived, so why couldn't he see any trace of them?

"They're gone!" Xiao Jue said.

"Oh, oh, so they left!" Liu Yiming took Xiao Jue's "not here" to mean they had departed; as long as Qingxue doesn't marry that bastard, it's fine.

Immediately afterward, he turned to Grand Elder Shen Qingcang and said: "Shen Elder, the Elder Ancestor specially sent me to inform your sect that the favor of Emperor Xuanji from years past will not be forgotten by the Liuyun Sect."

"If the Changsheng Sect has any use for the Liuyun Sect, just speak up; we Liuyun Sect will stand together with the Changsheng Sect through thick and thin!"

"Elder Ancestor Liu means well; we Changsheng Sect have kept this in mind." Shen Qingcang nodded.

"Who is this?" Liu Yiming's gaze fell on Li Zhangsheng; upon seeing his looks, he inexplicably felt angry, though he didn't know why.

"This is our Changsheng Sect's Sect Master!" Xiao Jue said solemnly; Li Zhangsheng had told them to call him Sect Master when outside, since the title Patriarch sounded too old.

"Oh oh, my apologies." Liu Yiming looked slightly embarrassed; the Sect Master was right there, yet he hadn't greeted him first. He then stepped forward and said: "Sect Master, hello, I'm Liu Yiming!"

However, he harbored some doubts inside!

Eh, not right!

Who is this person?

Before, he often came to play at Changsheng Sect and was well acquainted with the brothers there; how come he's never seen this new Sect Master?

Li Zhangsheng replied lightly: "Hello!"

"Hehe, Sect Master, I often come to visit your Changsheng Sect; please look after me in the future." Liu Yiming said with a chuckle.

"No problem." Li Zhangsheng said lightly, not really minding.

Immediately afterward, Li Zhangsheng said to Grand Elder Shen Qingcang: "Grand Elder, can the teleportation array at the spiritual vein still be used?"

The Changsheng Sect usually has teleportation arrays at external spiritual vein nodes as transportation hubs.

Just now I used my divine sense to sense the teleportation array on the plaza and its connection with the other one; that other teleportation array has already been destroyed.

"Alright, take out the map and let me see the locations of those three spirit veins." Li Zhangsheng said.

Shen Qiongcang nodded, took out a map, and pointed at the three locations on the map.

"Right, Sect Master, what are you guys going to do?" Liu Yiming laughed and asked while joining in the fun.

"The three spirit veins on the west side of our Longevity Gate have been occupied by the Prudent Void Gate; we want to go check them out." Xiao Jue said.

"Oh, just you four going? Do you want me to go back and round up some people?"

Liu Yiming looked at Li Zhangsheng and the others; he knew that in recent years the Longevity Gate had fallen on hard times, and strong cultivators were not exactly abundant.

"No need." Li Zhangsheng said.

"Hehe, could you bring me along? I also have supreme cultivation; maybe I can be of some help." Liu Yiming said with a hehe laugh.

Xiao Jue rolled his eyes at Liu Yiming, "You're not going just to help out, are you? I'm too embarrassed to spell it out for you!"

"You also want to go?" Li Zhangsheng was a bit curious; this is our Longevity Gate's family affair; after that he also thought of Luo Qingxue, understood, and said: "Alright then!"

Ah, young people!

And then, after Li Zhangsheng remembered the locations of those three spirit veins, he said: "Then let's set off!"

"Sect Master, I have a flying boat with extremely fast speed; it was specially granted by our Elder Ancestor to protect my life, so..."

Before Liu Yiming's words even finished, he only felt the surrounding space twist and turn, and then the space seemed to flow away before his eyes.

By the time he reacted, he found himself already in another world!

"This..." Liu Yiming looked around in a daze.

Huh? Who am I? Where am I?

Shen Qiongcang, Xiao Jue, and Luo Qingxue's reactions were exactly the same.

Just a moment ago they weren't on the Longevity Gate plaza; how did they suddenly end up here?

Eh... this seems to be a stronghold of one of the Longevity Gate's spirit veins!!

This is naturally Li Zhangsheng's method; when he came to this world twenty thousand years ago, Li Zhangsheng unexpectedly discovered he had gained such an ability.

This ability is to glance at a map; as long as he thinks about it, he can instantly appear at any location on the map!

It can even bring people along!

Liu Yiming seemed to realize something; he went to Xiao Jue's side, tugged at his sleeve, and whispered: "Brother Xiao, what's up with your sect master?"

Xiao Jue gave a mysterious smile and said: "Hehe, cannot be said, cannot be spoken; just watch from the side."

Seeing Xiao Jue not speak, Liu Yiming naturally didn't ask further; he just looked at Li Zhangsheng's eyes, which now showed some change.

"Sect Master, the people inside the underground spirit vein have all been replaced; there is a Prudent Void Gate Supreme Saint Realm expert guarding it."

"Moreover, our Longevity Gate disciples, elders, and hired loose cultivator miners have all vanished without a trace, and no corpses or battle traces have been found?" Shen Qiongcang's divine sense swept over the underground spirit vein space; it was somewhat strange.

Logically speaking, if the Prudent Void Gate sent people to occupy this spirit vein, there should have been a battle!

Yet the underground spirit vein space and its surroundings actually have no corpses at all, and no battle traces have been found!

This is rather strange!

Although the Longevity Gate disciples and elders might have some cowards, it's impossible for them to offer no resistance at all!

Moreover, these three spirit veins on the west side all have formations personally set up by the Profound Mystery Elder Ancestor; when attacking such formations, there should at least be some damage left behind!

Unless the other side has an Emperor Realm expert!

Li Zhangsheng also noticed this strange phenomenon; he swept his divine sense over the underground spirit vein space, and with a casual grab, an old man appeared in his hand.

This old man is naturally the Prudent Void Gate Supreme Saint Realm expert guarding this place.

Just moments ago he was still examining the purity of this spirit vein and planning how to mine it and send it to the sect.

Who would have thought, suddenly he felt as if something had grabbed him, and then... he discovered his neck was being pinched by a white-clad youth!

The old man felt a wave of dizziness!

Who am I? Where am I?

He wanted to move, but found he couldn't move at all!

Immediately afterward, he also saw Shen Qiongcang and the others, and instantly turned pale with shock: "What, is it you guys?"

Wasn't the Vice Sect Master supposed to take five Supreme Saint Realm experts to cause trouble at the Longevity Gate? How could the Longevity Gate Grand Elder be here?

Meanwhile, Liu Yiming on the other side was utterly shocked!

With a casual grab, he caught a Supreme Saint Realm expert in his hand; this sect master... is incredibly fierce!

"I ask, you answer!" Li Zhangsheng said coldly.

"You... you ask." The old man whispered, his face full of fear.

How could I, a Supreme Saint Realm expert, be held immobile by a mere white-clad youth's pinch!

This person's cultivation is probably far above mine!

"Our Longevity Gate disciples, elders, and loose cultivator miners guarding this spirit vein—were they all killed by you?" Li Zhangsheng asked.

"No... no!" The old man whispered.

"Then where did they go?" Li Zhangsheng asked again.

"They..." The old man was about to speak.

Who would have thought, he suddenly exploded with a boom, turning to ashes!

Li Zhangsheng slightly furrowed his brows!

He swore, this person definitely wasn't pinched to death by him!

This person was trying to extort him!!

"Sect Master, he..." Shen Qiongcang curiously asked.

"He must have been implanted with some spiritual oath, guarding a certain secret; once he tries to reveal it, he will perish in both body and dao."

Li Zhangsheng said casually, not caring much; after all, he had lived a hundred thousand years, so his experience was naturally abundant!

This method is nothing new!

"Oh, then what's next…" Shen Qingsang asked again.

Li Zhangsheng's spiritual consciousness swept over the Grand Void Gate members in the Underground Leyline Space, and he thought a command!

Boom—boom—boom, the Underground Leyline Space erupted like fireworks in a sudden barrage of explosions!!!

All the Grand Void Gate members perished instantly!

"Let's go, to the next leyline outpost!" Li Zhangsheng thought again.

In an instant, the few of them appeared in another realm!!!

The situation was the same as that leyline just now!

Again, a Grand Void Gate cultivator of the Supreme Saint Realm was guarding!

Li Zhangsheng casually seized him!

That person exploded before he could even utter a word!

Another set‑up?

Li Zhangsheng was puzzled!

He again casually annihilated all the Grand Void Gate members within the leyline, and the few arrived at the third leyline outpost.

This time Li Zhangsheng was too lazy to ask, and casually erased all the Grand Void Gate people in the leyline!

"Let's go, I'll take you to wipe out a sect for fun!" Li Zhangsheng said casually to the few.
