Chapter 5314
A monk in a black robe with his face hidden by a hood floated out. The aura he exuded made You Wuxie feel palpitations.
“Palace Master!” You Wuxie and others hurriedly bowed and saluted.
The head of the Evil Path Hall slowly raised his head, revealing a pair of scarlet eyes beneath his hood. “Kai… is quite interesting. Pass on my order, all the monks in the hall shall follow Master Qin to the battle. Whoever takes Kai’s head will be rewarded with a top-grade spiritual weapon!”
Thunderous cheers suddenly erupted from the altar, and countless black shadows emerged from all parts of the valley, as densely packed as an ant colony, spreading towards the direction of Sword Saint City.
The atmosphere in Sword Saint City is becoming increasingly solemn.
Since Qin Lie left, all the major forces in the city have been observing secretly, and unidentified cultivators often wander around outside the Sword Sect’s headquarters.
Kai knew that this was just the calm before the storm, and Qin Lie’s revenge would come sooner or later, and would be even more violent.
“Mr. Chen, this is the latest information.” Li Chunfeng’s figure quietly appeared in the courtyard, holding a jade slip in his hand.
Kai took the jade slip and probed it with his spiritual sense. His expression suddenly changed: “Sixth Hall of the Divine Temple? A branch hall of the Evil Path Hall? Qin Lie actually invited these evil stars!”
The jade slip clearly recorded that Qin Lie had united the six halls of the Sixth Heaven Temple, as well as the branch of the Evil Path Hall in the Black Wind Mountains. Even several hidden sects in the Fifth Heaven were won over. The total force exceeded a thousand people, including no less than fifty cultivators of the seventh rank or above in the Earthly Immortal Realm.
“The Lord of the Sixth Hall of the Divine Temple and I have an old grudge. I’m afraid this time he’s not just targeting you,” Li Chunfeng said solemnly. “Even more troublesome is the Evil Path Hall. The evil magic they practice is bizarre and unpredictable, making it extremely difficult to deal with.”
Hu Mazi rushed in, shouting, “Kai, there’s talk outside that Qin Lie is going to massacre Sword Saint City. Should we run away first?”
“Run? Where to run?” Mo Chen walked out with a cane, his face pale but his eyes determined. “The Sword Sect has been passed down for thousands of years. Even if we have to fight to the last man, we must never retreat!”
Ling Xue gripped the sword tightly in her hand and said softly, “Senior Brother Chen and I will advance and retreat together.”
Kai took a deep breath and handed the jade slip to everyone: “Now is not the time to retreat. City Lord Li, the defense of Sword Saint City…”
Li Chunfeng smiled bitterly and said, “To be honest, Mr. Chen, I’ve been gone for hundreds of years, and the city’s affairs have long been controlled by Zhang. He has secretly cultivated a lot of forces, and now I’m afraid he has colluded with Qin Lie.”
“That old bastard!” Hu Mazi angrily slammed the stone table. “I’ve disliked him for a long time!”
“At this point, we can only rely on ourselves.” Kai’s eyes flashed with determination. “City Lord Li, can you ask the neutral forces in Sword Saint City for help?”
“Disaster.”
Li Chunfeng shook his head. “The Sixth Palace of the Divine Temple and the Palace of Evil Paths are too famous. No one is willing to offend them for us.”
Just when everyone was at a loss, a burst of hearty laughter suddenly came from outside the courtyard: “Who said no one is willing?”
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Nan Batian striding towards them with his arms around a pretty girl, followed by dozens of powerful cultivators, the leader of whom was actually the owner of the Information Building!
“Nan Batian!” Kai was surprised and delighted, “Why are you here?”
Nan Batian laughed and said, “I heard that Shenjian Villa is going to deal with Mr. Chen. How can I not come to help?”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Chen. All the forces of the Information Building in the fifth level are at your disposal.” Xiao Cui said.
A warm feeling surged in Kai’s heart. Looking at the dozens of Earth Immortal Realm cultivators who suddenly appeared in the courtyard, his originally heavy mood relaxed a lot.
“With these two words, I feel relieved!”
Nan Batian patted Kai’s shoulder and said, “But having said that, the people Qin Lie brought with him this time are indeed difficult to deal with. The cultivators of the six halls of the temple are all extremely arrogant, and the evil cultivators of the Evil Hall are even more difficult to deal with. We must make a careful plan.”
