Chapter 644

But if one offended the Qinglong Society, there was no need for the Qinglong Society to act personally—the Great Song court and every sect within Great Song's borders would be only too eager to wipe them out, to curry favour with the Qinglong Society.

Therefore, upon hearing Feng Siniang admit it, Lian Chengbi's face turned an ashen blue.

"Could it be that for such a trivial matter, the Qinglong Society also wants to stick its hand in?"

"That's none of your concern! Either let us leave, or you can wait for the Qinglong Society to come have a word with you."

Feng Siniang's bearing was incomparably arrogant.

When Qinglong Society's people acted out in the world, this was always how it was!

If they were one jot less domineering, they'd be reprimanded once they got back!

"Estate Lord, even if this person is from the Qinglong Society, she's probably not even an altar master.

We could kill her here without anyone—god or ghost—ever knowing, and the Qinglong Society would…"

Lingjiu saw the hesitation in Lian Chengbi and suggested in a low voice.

But before he could finish speaking, Lian Chengbi suddenly stretched out that hand clad in some unknown metal and pressed it directly onto the top of his head.

Then a strange, eerie aura activated, and in the next instant Lingjiu rapidly withered dry.

In no time at all, he became a dried corpse right beneath Lian Chengbi's palm.

Whether the people of the Xiaoyao Cave or Xiao Shiyilang's group on the other side, upon seeing such a ghastly scene, all felt their hair stand on end.

"Hmph! Do I need you to teach me how to handle things?"

Lian Chengbi casually flung Lingjiu's shrivelled corpse to one side.

After casting a baleful glance at Xiao Shiyilang and the others, he said,

"Feng Siniang, you are of the Qinglong Society, so you may leave.

Xiao Shiyilang and Shen Bijun are not of the Qinglong Society, so they cannot leave."

"Are you trying to make an enemy of the Qinglong Society?"

Feng Siniang's expression changed drastically as she demanded directly.

"And what if I do make an enemy of the Qinglong Society?"

Just at that moment, a figure suddenly appeared within the cavern.

This person wore the garb of You Dongying, and cradled a strange weapon in his arms.

"Who are you?"

Neither Feng Siniang nor Lian Chengbi recognised this person, and their hearts could not help but skip a beat.

"Who I am, you're not qualified to know.

Lian Chengbi, I've heard you have a copy of 'Soul-Searching Hand' on you. Be sensible and hand it over, and I might spare your life."

This person was naturally none other than Juexin!

He had received guidance from a mysterious expert and come here to seek a technique that could drain others' cultivation.

And that very technique had just been demonstrated once by Lian Chengbi—it was the Soul-Searching Hand that Lian Chengbi had obtained from the Carefree Marquis!

453—Heaven's Wail, Extermination!

"Go! Kill this man, and there will be a generous reward!"

For some unknown reason, the moment he was targeted by Juexin, Lian Chengbi felt a surge of panic in his heart.

Without a second thought, he directly issued the order to the Xiaoyao Cave disciples.

Those Xiaoyao Cave disciples had long obeyed Lian Chengbi's every command without question.

The moment they heard his order, led by Snow Eagle, they charged at Juexin to kill.

"Quick! Take this chance to escape."

With Juexin stirring up chaos, although Feng Siniang did not know this arrogant stranger, she knew this was the best moment to flee.

She immediately employed her lightness skill, preparing to take Xiao Shiyilang and Shen Bijun and escape the place.

Heaven's Wail, Extermination!

The first of the Evil King's Ten Tribulations!

Seeing these three hundred-plus Xiaoyao Cave disciples charging in, Juexin was not the least bit flustered.

He casually unleashed the first of the Evil King's Ten Tribulations!

The Evil King's Ten Tribulations was an extremely unique, and extremely domineering, unorthodox divine art.

The power of the first tribulation could directly grant Juexin the might of the supreme Mythical Realm.

The moment this move was unleashed, everyone present—including the three who were preparing to flee—felt a sudden pang of heart-fear.

Then those Xiaoyao Cave disciples suddenly began to scream, and, heedless of everything, drew their blades and started slaughtering those beside them.

Screams rose and fell, and in the blink of an eye, all three hundred Xiaoyao Cave disciples—including Snow Eagle—had perished by killing one another.

Although Xiao Shiyilang's three did not turn on each other, witnessing such a ghastly scene, they were utterly shaken.

Juexin had wiped out three hundred Xiaoyao Cave disciples in a single move, and seeing that Feng Siniang's group had not turned on each other, he could not help but let out a soft sound of surprise.

Then he discovered that, at some unknown point, Lian Chengbi had vanished without a trace.

"Good! Escaping from right under my nose—not bad at all."

With an evil smile, Juexin used the power of the Great Evil King to sense the direction in which Lian Chengbi had fled.

He immediately stirred his body and, in a flash, gave chase in that direction.

"Who on earth is this person? How could he be so terrifying!"

Although most of the Xiaoyao Cave disciples were only second- or third-rate in skill,

to have them all slaughtered in a single move, and in such a bizarre manner, naturally left Xiao Shiyilang deeply alarmed.

Feng Siniang, having joined the Qinglong Society, was privy to quite a few of the Wu Lin's secrets.

Seeing that Juexin had already departed, after a moment of thought she said,

"The weapon he holds is surely the Great Evil King, the most evil divine weapon of Yunzhou; thus, he is most likely Jue Xin."

In the past, during the righteous and evil sects' conflict, Jue Xin used the power of the Tenth Calamity to drag the spiritual forms of Dugu Qiubai and others into the Nine Void Realms.

After the Xiao Brothers rescued Dugu Qiubai and the others' physical bodies, the Qinglong Society began deliberately gathering intelligence on the matter.

Only after learning that it was Jue Xin who acted with the power of the Great Evil King.

Senior Xiaoyaozi immediately prepared to have Seeing Di Shitian personally intervene and crush these men who disrespected the Qinglong Society.

But after Lu Xueqi returned to the Qinglong Society, she delivered the command of the Great Dragon Head, Ximen Wudi.

Ximen Wudi said that Jue Xin was useful to someone; until that person had fully exploited him, the Qinglong Society should not act for now.

In the Qinglong Society, the Great Dragon Head's word was divine decree; no one dared defy it.

That is why Jue Xin has been able to keep causing trouble until now!

But the intelligence on Jue Xin and the Great Evil King had long been made public; within the Qinglong Society, everyone knew of this man and this evil divine weapon.

Feng Siniang, being under Master Hua Xi's command, naturally knew as well.

"Jue Xin? The Great Evil King?"

Xiao Shiyilang and Shen Bijun still looked utterly confused.

This Great Song Wulin was ultimately too limited.

Its information and horizons were truly extremely narrow.

"Enough! Let's not speak further. Since he's chasing Lian Chengbi, I'll take you away from here first."

Feng Siniang sighed inwardly; Jue Xin's strength was far beyond what she could handle.

It was better to leave while his attention was elsewhere.

She immediately led Xiao Shiyilang and Shen Bijun down a hidden tunnel, finally reaching the outside of the Xiaoyao Cave.

Outside, they discovered that the Xiaoyao Cave had been built within the belly of a mountain.

No wonder the Xiaoyao Cave had plagued the martial world for so many years without anyone ever discovering its exact location.

At the same time, Xiao Shiyilang was secretly astonished.

Even such a minor force as the Xiaoyao Cave had its intelligence gathered to this extent by the Qinglong Society—how terrifying must the Qinglong Society's intelligence network truly be?

Just as they stepped outside and saw the warm sunlight, the group had not yet had time to rejoice.

Suddenly, a troop of iron cavalry charged from afar, surrounding the three in three concentric layers, leaving no escape.

"Is the blade in your hand the Cutting Deer Blade?"

A General stepped forward slowly, gazing at the Cutting Deer Blade in Xiao Shiyilang's hand.

"Yes!"

Xiao Shiyilang realized that every one of these iron cavalrymen possessed the Grandmaster Realm cultivation, and their leader was even at the Great Grandmaster Realm.
