Chapter 2687: Carve Out a Different Path!

Ancestor Minghe knew that Yunzhongzi and Kunpeng were not easy to deceive, which is why he came up with this plan—otherwise, Yunzhongzi and Kunpeng would never have come here.

Previously, they had never even considered this matter—how could it possibly draw such attention? They should never have listened to them in the first place.

"Don't you have your own ideas?"

"Breaking away to form your own sect is no small thing; others may not be able to help you achieve it."

"Can you?"

Without the Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree and the Immortal-Slaying Formation Diagram, they couldn't even attempt it—even if they could obtain these items, it would still count as encouragement for these people.

The Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree is their lifeline; if they could obtain it at this moment, they would become the most powerful beings.

The items in the hands of the Immortal of Longevity are not something they can simply take.

"You might try with others, but the Immortal of Longevity's belongings—I think you'd be better off not even bothering, as they have no real connection to what came before."

"You're underestimating me?"

"I'd never dare underestimate you—I'd share everything with you first—but you should never, under any circumstances, have directly contacted the demonic race!"

Hongyun glanced at the fake Tianwu and Wengzi, and he knew this matter was doomed.

Although Jin Ling felt uneasy inside, she showed no sign of fear—having followed Hongyun for so long, she had learned how to act.

Only by following Hongyun could they ever hope to witness such a sight.

Jin Ling thought to herself: she held the Break-Heaven Hammer and the Ten Golden Pearls—why should she fear the demonic race? At this point, it was the demonic race who should be begging her.

"Yes, we're not afraid!"

"Just a bunch of demonic race—why should I fear them? What do they have to do with me?"

Hongyun understood Jin Ling well enough to grasp the meaning behind her words; Nanji Xianweng and Zhurong, standing beside her, found it strange but said nothing.

Wengzi said: "You refuse the wine and choose the punishment—then don't blame us for being uncivil!"

"Have you two never wondered why your whereabouts were exposed so easily?" Gonggong watched the mosquito, and Wengzi turned curiously toward him.

"Why exactly?"

Wengzi wanted to know too—they had prepared extensively, yet it seemed to have no effect at all, and he and Tianwu would soon be exposed.

How would they explain themselves to Lord Guiche? Lord Guiche would surely kill them.

Since they were going to die anyway, better to die meaningfully—staying here could still help Lord Guiche. This was Wengzi's thought—he knew it was foolish, but he had no choice.

Tianwu said: "Enough talk—let's fight or kill, now!"

Ever since Hongyun alerted Zhurong, the moment Zhurong pulled out the New Moon Treasure Disc, Tianwu knew they had been discovered—and likely could never leave this place again.

But Wengzi refused to accept fate—he wanted to fight one last time!

Whether because of other matters or the current situation, they had no choice but to act this way—wherever they died was no different, as long as Lord Guiche's wish was fulfilled.

Wengzi and Tianwu held different thoughts: Tianwu wanted mutual destruction, but Wengzi wanted to risk everything—to try and carve out a different path.
