HEAVENLY DAO RANK: I WAS EXPOSED AS A SWORD GOD
Chapter 12: The Arrival of the Two Major Sects
"Is the Viper sword still with him?" Zhu Xiaotian asked.
That Cicada Sword was a high-grade spirit sword, the thirteenth ranked divine weapon in the Great Xia Dynasty Divine Weapon Rankings in his previous life.
"The Viper sword was gone when we found the body."
Zhu Xiaotian's face was grim. He suffered a huge loss this time. The viper was dead, and his spirit sword had been robbed.
"Young Master, do you need me to do it personally?" Seven Steps asked in a low voice.
Zhu Xiaotian was silent for a moment before she shook her head. "wait. I have other plans!”
Zhu Xiaotian was well aware that the various factions had almost found Li Yu. They might come knocking on his door tomorrow and send people to watch him secretly.
He had missed the best chance, and the Viper's death had reminded him, so it might be more difficult to kill Li Yu.
Maybe even expose him!
He did not want to get himself in trouble.
As a reborn person, he should be a big figure behind the scenes, and he should be more patient.
He was too rash before.
He was not the only person in the world who wanted Li Yu dead.
Why don't I wait for the good news?
Moreover, it was safer to have someone else do it than him.
After hearing Zhu Xiaotian's words, Seven Steps secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
He was ready to sacrifice for his mission as an assassin, but no one wanted to die from instinct.
Even Viper had failed, and he probably wouldn't be able to return if Zhu Xiaotian sent him.
…
Nan'an City, East Palace.
"So in Luo Water City Qing Prefecture!" Murong Xingqiao was overjoyed when he got news from his subordinates.
Soon, he called for the Wu Cheng Royal Master.
“Seply send someone to Grand Tutor's Mansion and let them know that they have found it. Accompany me tomorrow at six in the morning,” said Murong Xingqiao.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Wu Cheng cupped his hands.
At the same time, the Third Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, Murong Taisheng, and the Fifth Prince, Murong Zhengnan; as well as the various marquis factions, such as the Yi family of King Pingnan, the Luo family of the Northern Garrison King, were, and the other — they all received news about Li Yu's whereabouts.
However, right now, Li Yu was in the Black Bear Mountain Juyi Hall.
He handled the remaining bandits in the village alone and obtained a lot of gold, silver, and treasures.
He also saved the women and laborers who were kidnapped by the bandits.
As for Zhou Erlang and the others, they were sent to reunite with Zhou Dalang.
After all, Tang Chi was back. Leaving those bandits in the Taoist temple would definitely cause trouble. It might even threaten Tang Chi's safety.
Now that he had the money he had snatched from the bandits, he could hire actual craftsmen to expand the Daoist temple.
After all, there are specializations in every profession. The work of these mountain bandits was too low of a standard.
The night went well…
The first sunlight in the morning shone on the ground on the official road leading to Luo Water City.
Over ten disciples from the Jade Pure Dao Sect split up to inquire about the news of That Sect being Big Enough.
"Hello, uncle, I have something to ask you." A cold-looking handsome man stopped an uncle carrying two vegetable baskets.
This man was the fifth place in the Hidden Dragon Rank, the number one genius of the Pure Dao Jade Sect, Lin Chen.
After some investigation yesterday, Elder Hu and the others had narrowed down the area where Li Yu was in the vicinity of Luo Water City.
Therefore, early in the morning, Elder Hu led everyone to split up in the village near Luo Water City to keep asking for Li Yu's whereabouts.
Lin Chen had just come to meet with Elder Hu and the others this morning.
He wanted to see what kind of person Li Yu was.
As the current number one prodigy of the Jade Pure Dao Sect, he was also the most valuable disciple.
Lin Chen did not have a good impression of Li Yu in his heart.
More precisely, he was jealous.
This was especially true when the Sect Master had the intention to bring Li Yu under his wing.
He's very unhappy.
The number one genius of the sect in the future was Li Yu.
He was afraid that most of the cultivation resources and attention would be focused on him.
At that time, he would only be a green leaf.
So he wished for nothing more than to never find Li Yu.
"Please speak, Sir!" the old man said kindly.
"Have you heard of the Big Enough Sect?" Lin Chen asked.
"Which sect?" The old man looked at Lin Chen in surprise.
"That's a Pretty Big Sect!" Lin Chen said.
"Yes I know which sect it is? The old man asked again.
"That's a Pretty Big Sect!"
“…”
"The sect's name is a Pretty Big Sect!"
The old man looked at Lin Chen as if he was stupid, then shook his head and said, "I've never heard of him!"
Lin Chen cursed "That's a Pretty Big Sect" in his heart.
However, right at this moment, a senior brother flew over from a distance, and he shouted excitedly, "Elder Hu, I heard that it was on the Nine-Tailed Mountain which was over 10 kilometers to the west of Luo Water City!"
"That's great!" Elder Hu was overjoyed and immediately led everyone to fly towards the Nine-Tailed Mountain.
However, they did not fly long before Elder Hu saw a group of people flying from another direction. It was a member of the Great Sky Dao Sect.
The person leading was the person he least wanted to meet — Jia Qinglin.
"Damn it, this old man is here too!" Elder Hu immediately frowned.
He did not need to think to know that the Great Sky Dao Sect had definitely come to look for Li Yu.
Moreover, based on the direction they flew, it was clearly the Nine-Tailed Mountain.
Jia Qinglin noticed the members of the Jade Pure Dao Sect as well.
Jia Qinglin did not say anything and started to speed up. His figure turned into a ray of light, speeding towards the direction of the Nine-Tailed Mountain with the fastest speed, leaving the group of disciples behind.
"Huh, you want to compete in speed with me?" Elder Hu snorted. "The Art of Thunder Dash!"
Elder Hu did not want to lose. He also turned into a lightning strike that chased up close.
Only the disciples from the two sects looked at each other, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Actually, they're used to it.
Although Elder Hu and Elder Jia were both Sect Elders, it was as if they were facing each other every time they met.
Both of them had no deep hatred, while some said they were from the same hometown.
Still, they both loved to compete from a young age, comparing height and strength.
Regardless of their age, it is still the same.
Every time they met each other, quarrels were inevitable, there were even times when they fought.
"Jia, old bastard, I will definitely get there before you!"
"I wouldn't say that if I were you!" Elder Hu and Elder Jia could be said to have brought out the best as they madly rushed towards the Nine-Tailed Mountain as if their lives depended on it.
Soon, the two flew to the top of the Nine-Tailed Mountain and rushed to the Taoist temple.
Li Yu was sleeping in her room while Tang Chi was training alone in the courtyard.
Tang Chi was obviously much more hardworking than Li Yu in cultivating.
“Where is Li Yu?” Elder Hu shouted as soon as they entered the temple.
Elder Jia echoed as well.
The two were racing, and their faces were flushed red from exhaustion.
Coupled with the fact that they were competing against each other, they gritted their teeth with a terrifying expression on their faces.
They didn't seem to be here to recruit talented people but to take revenge.
Tang Chi almost peed on her pants.
He had just experienced the incident with the demon child yesterday and had yet to recover from it.
