Chapter 126: Warning Gong Qing! Driving Away All-Nature Sect
Fang Dongtian walked quickly with his hands behind his back to the side of Lao Tianshi, watched Lin Xuan leave with Er She, and tilted his head to look at Lao Tianshi.
"Tianshi, don't blame them this time; after all, your reputation is too resounding, and these juniors all want to know just how powerful you are.
You must show mercy when the time comes."
"Mercy?" Lao Tianshi looked down at Fang Dongtian.
"I know you had a hand in this, but as for showing mercy, forget it!"
Lao Tianshi could not see through Lin Xuan.
Naturally, there was no talk of showing mercy.
"Daoist, there is no need to worry; didn't the senior brother and that child say it would be a contest of skill, nothing more."
Tian Jinzhong looked at Fang Dong and said.
"That's true, alright then, I'll head back first. Once a person gets old, they tire easily; I've only been sitting for a short while and I'm already sleepy!"
As he spoke, Fang Dongtian walked forward with his hands behind his back.
"Tianshi, are you truly certain of victory?"
Just as Fang Dongtian walked away, Lu Jin came up, followed by others.
"Indeed, Tianshi, if you lose, you will lose a great deal of face."
Lv Ci also grinned and said.
"You all were quite eager to see this, don't think this old Daoist doesn't know what you are thinking."
Lao Tianshi turned his head to glance at Lu Jin and the others; he was quite clear about their thoughts.
If he were injured, these people would likely not want to see it.
But if he were to be defeated once, these people would likely enjoy the spectacle.
"No, no, Tianshi, you overthink it; we just wonder if we might be able to watch the battle when the time comes!"
Mu You said with some anticipation.
"Watch the battle? We might not be able to hold back our strength when the time comes; if you aren't afraid of death, then come closer and watch."
"Uh, then never mind!"
Upon hearing this, Mu You shook his head immediately.
Others had the same thought as Mu You.
But thinking about it, it was true; if they were caught in the crossfire of the two, something might truly go wrong.
However, it would be a lie to say they weren't disappointed that they couldn't witness this clash with their own eyes.
Lin Xuan, for his part, did not view winning or losing as very important; after leaving the arena, he saw the young Daoist waiting outside.
Gong Qing was bowing his head in deep thought, looking as if he were troubled by something.
Only after Lin Xuan walked to his side did Gong Qing notice and turn his head.
But upon seeing Lin Xuan, Gong Qing's expression stiffened for a moment, then he squeezed out a smile.
"Zhenren!"
Gong Qing hurriedly bowed, his expression respectful.
"I have troubled the All-Nature Sect Leader—oh, Acting Sect Leader—to bow; I wonder if I can go out and brag about this."
Gong Qing's heart tightened, but the smile on his face remained unchanged.
"Perfected One, you joke; what All-Nature Sect Acting Sect Leader? This junior truly does not know."
"Whether you know or not is irrelevant; I have only come to tell you one thing: I have matters to attend to after the Luo Tian Grand Ritual here at Longhu Mountain. If All-Nature Sect causes trouble afterward and delays my time, then do not even think about leaving Longhu Mountain alive.
This is a warning; after all, I am not a wicked person."
After Lin Xuan finished speaking, he did not look at Gong Qing's expression and left with Qing Bai Er She.
Gong Qing's expression was blank.
This was a warning.
But he had no other choice.
If he did not complete the task this time, he was a dead man.
But if he followed the original plan and launched the operation after the Luo Tian Grand Ritual ended and most of the experts had left Longhu Mountain, this person would likely truly begin a massacre.
If one could say others might show some restraint, this person was a different story.
The dozens of people who died four years ago surely had something to say about that.
Those were dozens of people who died without even entering the gates of Baiyun Guan.
His identity had certainly been exposed.
After realizing this, Gong Qing turned around and walked away quickly.
Lao Tianshi pushed Tian Jinzhong out, but did not see the figure of Xiao Yuzi.
The two exchanged a glance, as if they knew nothing of the matter.
Many members of All-Nature Sect were still lurking on the mountain.
Under the disguise of strange arts, as long as they did not make a move, the disguise would not be discovered; they could even disguise their Qi.
Of course, there were also those lurking on the mountain who had not entered Tianshi Mansion directly.
"Ghost man, you had best not think about testing that person, because you will truly die!"
Xia Liuqing stroked his beard as he sat on a tree branch, watching Balun, who was squatting on another branch, turn his head to look at Xia Liuqing.
"I am only helping this time, not seeking death; as long as I bring the person back, that is enough, right?"
"Right, right, that is our mission; it would be best to finish it quickly and then leave immediately. I truly do not want to run into that monster."
Xia Liuqing thought of the sense of oppression he felt when he met Lin Xuan four years ago.
Xia Liuqing had also lived for a hundred years, and in all his life, no one had ever given him such a powerful sense of oppression.
Life and death were completely beyond one's own control.
"Since you are so afraid of this person, why do you still do these things?"
Balun changed his posture, sat down directly, and looked at Xia Liuqing with curiosity.
"Why do you ask so much, you foreigner? But this time it's the Acting Sect Leader's gamble; of course, those guys, one by one, are also very excited about causing trouble at Longhu Mountain.
But this isn't a dinner party; people will die."
But it was useless for him to think about this.
After all, among these people of the All-Nature Sect, there was simply no one who could hold these guys together.
Except for Wugensheng back then, the All-Nature Sect had not produced another Sect Leader for a long time.
As for that guy Gong Qing, Xia Liuqing felt that his guts were very big.
It was just that his luck was bad.
The plan this time was actually quite meticulous, and according to the plan, the patience was also sufficient.
It was a pity there were too many variables.
In the end, he was too young.
Xia Liuqing sighed with emotion while recalling the past.
Thinking of what Jinfeng looked like when she was young, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Then, the back of his hand grew slightly warm; he lowered his head to look, and several bright red characters appeared.
The plan has changed, retreat!
Seeing these five characters, Xia Liuqing rubbed his eyes, and after confirming them once, his expression became somewhat strange.
"Foreigner, let's go; it seems the plan has changed."
After Xia Liuqing called out, he stood up, then leaped directly off the tree trunk and headed down the mountain.
Balun was a bit surprised, but he didn't ask much; after coming down, he followed directly.
Anyway, he was here to help Xia Liuqing this time.
Since the other person said to leave, he didn't need to stay.
On the All-Nature Sect side, everyone who was on the mountain received the message almost at the same time.
Except for a very few individuals, the others, though puzzled about what had happened, all quietly retreated.
Xu San had previously contacted Zhao Zong, and Zhao Zong had told him, along with Xu Si and Lao Liao, to capture members of the All-Nature Sect to ask for information.
Once the All-Nature Sect moved, it became somewhat conspicuous.
After all, with so many unfamiliar faces suddenly wanting to leave all at once, it was very easy to distinguish.
After capturing a few people and interrogating them, the facts proved that there were not many tough nuts to crack.
The news was basically confirmed: the All-Nature Sect had received a message from the Acting Sect Leader to leave Longhu Mountain.
"What's the situation?"
Xu Si lit a cigarette, watched his subordinates take away the few people they had captured, and then felt somewhat puzzled.
"These are all small fry who don't know much; let's see if we can catch a big fish!"
