Chapter 819: Betrayal of the Three Sects
Qin Wushuang’s wave of attack arrived abruptly, yet it caused a total collapse of the psychological barrier of the three neutral sects.
It was needless to mention that all the officials of the Hundred Lane Clan had become Wushuang’s divine venomous puppets. If Qin Wushuang was not considering the Xuan Yuan totem clan, per his style, he would have certainly extracted and refined the divine soul of the two Supreme Dao elite warriors. He would have used them to make Golem Puppets.
Currently, although Qin Wushuang had nine Golem Puppets to practice the Nine Palace Return One Sword Formation, this sword formation took up too many resources. All nine Golem Puppets were expropriated. Qin Wushuang did not even have a single puppet next to him. In a crucial moment, it would be inconvenient to not have a single scapegoat.
With Qin Wushuang’s current power, he had nine Golem Puppets. Plus the four divine beasts, in fact he already possessed enough capital to deal with the Heavenly Emperor Xin Clan.
Only, the Xin Clan had the monstrous Xin Tianwen who was an elite warrior at the Genuine Supreme Dao Stage. In a situation where Head Chief Qin Xiaotian was severely injured, currently Qin Wushuang did not have the complete assurance to fight a decisive battle with Xin Tianwen.
With his current strength, even if he were to activate the Ninth Calamity Genuine Supreme weapon, he could almost ignore the chances of winning when facing Xin Tianwen. At most, he could strive to survive.
Per the grudge held by Xin Tianwen, most likely it would be full of twists and turns to escape. It was because Xin Tianwen would certainly chase to kill him regardless of any consequences.
Therefore, Qin Wushuang plotted to actively strike against the moral of the Heavenly Emperor Gate. Once the alliances of the Heavenly Emperor collapsed, certainly the Heavenly Emperor Gate would have a great strike.
With the Heavenly Emperor Gate not having any support, their plan to attack the Aspiring Throne Mountain would be influenced. In the most extreme situation, they might fail.
As long as this plan failed, the Qin Clan would have sufficient time to recuperate and Head Chief Qin Xiaotian would have the time to heal his injuries.
In this case, the crisis of the Qin Clan would be solved naturally.
As long as Qin Xiaotian regained his strength, the Qin Clan would have enough capital to resist Xin Tianwen. Then next, they would strike against the Xin Clan.
They must strike the Xin Clan through the turning point of the Heavenly Emperor election. Or else, in the end, they could not pass by the totem clan when dealing with the Xin Clan.
Qin Wushuang plotted each step meticulously. Striking down and intimidating the three sects was the first step in the process.
Only, this step went much smoother than he imagined.
In these ten years, while the Mysterious Reform Gate and the Thousand Feather Sect exerted their efforts next to the Heavenly Emperor Gate, in fact they were concerned about their own sect. Currently, although the annihilation of the Qin Clan was within sight, if they could not even protect their own sect, what significance would it have if they destroyed the Qin Clan?
Would the benefits they gained from the Qin Clan make up for the loss of having their sect annihilated?
If their sect was gone, what use would it be even if they received other benefits? It had taken their sect thousands of years to get where it was now.
Once destroyed, it would be a long process to emerge strong once again. Perhaps, it would be easy to have the emergence of a Supreme Dao elite warrior. To have a few generations thrive or to have talented people come forth in large numbers would be not ordinary and would take time.
Therefore, Qin Wushuang’s method of intimidation stirred the leaders of the three sects greatly through the embellishment of their own people that stayed to defend.
The two great leaders of the Hundred Lane Clan, Bai Liguang and Bai Litu, were already Qin Wushuang’s puppets. Of course, they began to persuade the Mysterious Reform Gate and the Thousand Feather Sect.
“Brother Guang, the Heavenly Emperor already gave seven orders to summon us to regroup before the Aspiring Throne Mountain. If we are to use too many excuses, I am afraid he will be angry and blame us for any faults.”
The Head Suzerain of the Thousand Feather Sect, Bai Yu sighed helplessly.
Bai Liguang said with a cold sneer, “Brother Baiyu, this time our three sects were attacked at the same time, could it be the alarm has not sounded for you? Do you think that Qin Wushuang is only joking with us?”
The scene was solemn and respectful. Everyone knew that Qin Wushuang would never joke. When he killed Lei Ming, attacked Luo Tongtian and Xin Wuji, how could he appear as a person to joke around with after the demonstration of his skills? When he attacked the Heavenly Emperor Gate and inflicted heavy casualties, it was also not just superficial contact.
Ten years ago, Qin Wushuang had the courage and skill to kill at the Heavenly Emperor Gate. Today after ten years, if Qin Wushuang wanted to kill within their sects and slaughter everyone, it would not be difficult for him.
The Thousand Feather Sect and the Mysterious Reform Gate did not deal with Qin Wushuang himself, but his subordinates. If Qin Wushuang were to make a move against them, how cruel could his methods could get?
Bai Litu seized the chance and said, “Everyone, perhaps since Qin Wushuang did not come to your sect, you did not have a profound experience. What I want to say is that when that Qin Wushuang came to my Hundred Lane Clan, in less than two hours, he destroyed seven defense barriers as if he were slashing melons and vegetables. The Thousand Feather Sect and the Mysterious Reform Gate are sects on par with my Hundred Lane Clan. If Qin Wushuang went to your sect next time, with the amount of forces left behind in your sect, how long could you resist him?”
“Could the Heavenly Emperor just sit and ignore this? His majesty always viewed that kid as the greatest misfortune, he will definitely not turn a blind eye!”
This was a form of self-comforting. The person that spoke these words was not even confident in himself. It was true that the Heavenly Emperor might not just ignore him, yet the problem was the situation of how the Heavenly Emperor always chased after Qin Wushuang. Regardless of how much he chases him, he was still alive and sound. Additionally, he also achieved a great increase in power.
“Humph, Heavenly Emperor...” It would be alright if Bai Liguang did not talk about him. Once he was mentioned, he also had a stomach full of anger. Even if he was not controlled by the divine venomous poison, he did not share a good impression towards the Heavenly Emperor Gate.
After all, from beginning to end, they were forced to enter the attack on the Qin Clan. As their clan was pushed by today’s situation, the culprit was the Heavenly Emperor Gate.
While the Heavenly Emperor Xin Clan and the Qin Clan fight like celestial beings, the other sects were like little demons who suffered the consequences. If the Xin Clan was not being overbearing and forced them to join, how could they have formed such a grudge against the Qin Clan? All of these endless troubles were invited to their door.
If they knew about this situation from early on, initially they should have united tightly and followed next to the Yun Clan: they should have persisted on staying neutral and never favored any side.
“Ah, Brother Guang, just tell us honestly... Should we heed the summoning from the Heavenly Emperor or not?” Second Master of the Mysterious Reform Gate asked.
Bai Liguang gave a slight snort and shook his head. “No. If we go, we need to work for them with our lives. I am afraid we will be cannon fodder when we charge and break through the line into the Qin Clan. Besides, what are we after by risking our lives? If we cannot even protect our own sect, but still risk our lives for others, is there a sense of justice in this world? For the Heavenly Emperor Gate, is there nothing else worthy of our endorsement?”
As soon as he said these words, the leaders of the Thousand Feather Sect and the Mysterious Reform Gate turned pale with fright. They knew that Bai Liguang harbored complaints inwardly, but unexpectedly he had said such disgraceful words out loud.
However, although these words sounded ear-piercing, after some careful thinking, it did tap into the bottom of their hearts. They all shared a sympathetic response.
The situation in these two houses were not much better than the Hundred Lane Clan.
When risking their lives for the Heavenly Emperor Gate, it would have been one thing if the Heavenly Emperor Xin Clan treated them well. In these ten years, they completely saw through the countenance of the Xin Clan. They were completely using their power to oppress them and to order them around with an arrogant attitude by towering above them.
“Four Daoist friends, my Patriarch is not just saying these righteous words for no reason. Think about the Heavenly Emperor Gate, in these ten years, have they ever cared about us? Have they ever spoken a single caring word? They have just given us empty promises. The day when we break the Qin Clan, they will allow us to take whatever goods we can. However, for the goods of the Qin Clan, I will keep this matter to myself whether we do get our turn or not. We know that the Xin Clan is tyrannical, but even the Sound of Thunder Sect and the Heavenly Punishing Villa hold a much higher position than us.” Bai Litu also made use of every inch and second to add the following embellishment.
After a moment of thoughtful thinking, Luo Baiyu said with a long sigh, “You two, just how is the power of that Qin Wushuang now?”
Silence, the entire scene fell into a long silence. However, all eyes were fixed on Bai Liguang. Clearly, they cared about this question very much.
As for the exact strength of Qin Wushuang, it would be the crucial element for them to make the decision.
Bai Liguang let out a sigh. “According to the feedback from my head elder, that Qin Wushuang’s current stage is not far from me. However, his equipment and skills clearly surpass my own. Everyone, I believe that Qin Wushuang has inherited the immemorial formation. I think this rumor can be verified. If this were not the case, how could he be this monstrous?”
Everyone’s eyes sunk. Bai Liguang’s words shattered their last trace of illusion. Ten years, it was only ten years.
Initially when Qin Wushuang escaped from the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, he had yet to enter the Supreme Dao Stage. However, after ten years, he was actually on par with Bai Liguang’s level.
What kind of terrifying progress was this?
Ten years, it was only ten years! Yet, Qin Wushuang was only a little bit over thirty years old now. According to tradition in the martial arts world, this was only the beginning stage of martial arts and he had yet to enter the golden age of training. Even so, he already possessed such terrifying strength.
Indeed, the potential showcased by this Qin Wushuang was terrifying. It shook them to the bottom of their hearts.
Luo Baiyu asked with a somewhat helpless tone, “Brother Guang, could it be you already think that the Heavenly Emperor Gate is incapable of making Qin Wushuang surrender?”
“Make him surrender?” Bai Liguang let out a cold laugh. “From beginning to end, the Heavenly Emperor Gate was never able to make Qin Wushuang yield. Currently, perhaps Qin Wushuang could not defeat the Heavenly Emperor. Yet with time, when he keeps leveling up at this speed, Qin Wushuang will make the Heavenly Emperor feel powerless in the next few years. Everyone, I am not speaking bewitched words to allure you guys. Currently, us three sects are brothers on trial and tribulation. I will not beat around the bush. I am afraid the trend at the Heavenly Emperor Mountain will change.”
The expressions on the four major leaders of the Thousand Feather Sect and the Mysterious Reform Gate seemed to appear as if they were whipped by someone. The muscles on their face jumped lightly.
Clearly, they also realized that under such enormous pressure, the Qin Clan still was not extinguished. Now with Qin Wushuang coming back to kill from the Endless Eastern Sea aggressively, he already started their counterattack. It could be said that the Heavenly Emperor Gate already lost the best opportunity to annihilate the Qin Clan!
The next few years until the Heavenly Emperor election would be a crucial period to the change of trend. By that time, all will be revealed of who would be the dragon or the snake.
By judging the current situation, the Qin Clan had already passed the darkest stage and was welcoming the slightest dawn of a new era!
