Chapter 166: What Will You Do Now?
Chapter 166: What Will You Do Now?
Qian Sanjiang and Hou Fang were stunned like wooden chickens.
Is this really happening?
Yin Shen Gong, at this moment, finally showed complete exhaustion, both mentally and physically.
And the sense of powerlessness after exhausting all efforts to no avail:
"If it weren't for the additional thought I had from the Night Demon's intelligence, which I could say was a reminder from the Night Demon, and then I promptly reported it to the Patriarch, who immediately sent people to investigate, we might have had no reaction at all until Ren Zhongyuan officially took his position!"
Yin Shen Gong's voice was calm, but filled with anger and resentment.
Clearly, he had suppressed his true emotions for a long time, and only now, within this flying vessel, did they finally come out.
Qian Sanjiang and Hou Fang just listened, and they were sweating profusely.
If Ren Zhongyuan had truly succeeded, where would Yin Shen Gong go, and what would happen to him, they didn't know.
But what would happen to them was very clear.
As Yin Shen Gong's confidants and the former Grandmaster's capable assistants, what would happen now that the Grandmaster had changed?
It's obvious, isn't it?
As the saying goes, "A new emperor means new ministers."
Without even deliberately targeting them, giving them a few missions would be enough to have them die silently at the hands of the Protectors.
Too easy!
"Grandmaster, what did the Patriarch say?"
Qian Sanjiang clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth.
"The Patriarch said, if others can start on the first day, can you, Yin Shen Gong, not finish on the fifteenth?"
A glint of bloodlust flashed in Yin Shen Gong's eyes.
"Then so be it! I am willing to be the Grandmaster's sharp blade, awaiting only your command!"
Hou Fang said between clenched teeth.
"But this matter is already a fait accompli. We must wait until after the Incubation to Divinity Program!"
Yin Shen Gong sighed, "So, this time going to the Headquarters, including the Patriarch and Deputy Sect Master Xiang, nothing can be done."
"After the Headquarters completes the Incubation to Divinity Program and the sects return, that's when the major power cleansing will begin!"
Yin Shen Gong's lips twisted with a sinister smile, "There may be changes, not just for our Unified Heart Sect!"
"Yes!"
Qian Sanjiang and Hou Fang were still a bit scared.
Imagine if Yin Shen Gong hadn't discovered the other side's plan and things had continued like this.
Two hundred and fifty-six Generals, not one of them was on their side.
In other words, if the plan failed, everyone would die, or they wouldn't rank, and the blame would all fall on Yin Shen Gong!
But if it succeeded and they made it to the top three, all the credit would go to Ren Zhongyuan—after all, he had already made all the preparations!
Fortunately, fortunately!
At the last moment, the Night Demon was inserted!
Among the two hundred and fifty-seven people, there was finally one survivor.
This was incredibly dangerous!
The lives of countless people hung by a single thread!
"Indeed, the Night Demon seems to be our lucky star." Qian Sanjiang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, still feeling lingering fear.
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Yin Shen Gong's lips, "So, I said the Night Demon carries a bit of good fortune. The last time I mentioned it to you, you all didn't take it seriously, and I still remember that."
"From now on, we will firmly follow the Grandmaster's lead."
Yin Shen Gong looked ahead, his voice calm but tinged with unease, an uncontrollable worry.
"The burden on the Night Demon is very heavy. I hope he can bear it."
"I have confidence in the Night Demon!"
"Me too!"
"Since he is the son of destiny, he will surely turn the tide."
Yin Shen Gong glanced at Qian Sanjiang and said, "Don't call him the son of destiny. If those words get out, the Night Demon won't live long!"
"Yes, yes, we won't say it."
Yin Shen Gong's face was filled with worry, "The Headquarters is not peaceful either... the higher you go, the stronger the Celestial Wind."
Qian Sanjiang and Hou Fang exchanged glances, neither daring to speak.
They didn't dare to comment on matters of the Headquarters.
...
The flying vessel was moving rapidly.
Fang Che watched the clouds below, passing by in a blur.
In no time, they had covered thousands of miles.
He naturally knew that this was definitely not heading to New Chu.
But to the true stronghold of the Only Me Sect!
The stronghold of the Only Me Sect, which no Protector could know!
So this is how we enter!
On the wide floor of the flying vessel, the two hundred and fifty-seven people ignored each other, most of them in meditation, practicing their skills.
Fang Che also sat down to meditate and practice.
Slowly, malevolent aura began to seep out from his body...
The two hundred people in the cabin felt a sudden discomfort, though they couldn't quite put their finger on what was wrong.
It was a slight sense of unease...
No one knew how long it had been.
The flying vessel shook.
Fang Che was jolted awake from his cultivation, and he turned to see everyone else waking up as well, their expressions strange, each with a pale face.
Fang Che's heart stirred, and he immediately channeled his power, his face also turning pale.
The crowd was whispering among themselves.
"What's been going on this whole journey?"
"I also felt something was off, like there was a ghost behind me, giving me chills."
"Me too, me too. This journey has been really strange..."
"Could it be that strange things happen as we approach the Headquarters? I still feel a chill at the back of my neck..."
Fang Che was also puzzled: What's happening?
Why don't I have the slightest feeling? But seeing these people's reactions, it doesn't seem like an act, could it be related to the ancient jade's malevolent aura?
Fang Che was perplexed.
He tried releasing a wisp of malevolent aura towards the General Rank beside him, behind his ear.
Sure enough, the guy beside him paled, and instinctively turned his head. He rubbed his ears vigorously with his hands, "Damn, this is so evil. I feel a sense of unease for no reason."
He only stopped when his ears turned red from the rubbing, muttering, "The headquarters is indeed sinister."
Fang Che's heart stirred.
He had already retracted the malevolent aura, sealing it tightly, not letting even a hint of it escape.
The cabin door opened.
A gust of fresh wind blew in, instantly refreshing everyone's spirits. Amidst the wind, various bustling noises could be faintly heard.
Hou Fang's voice rang out, "Everyone, let's get off."
The crowd filed out one by one.
Fang Che took a glance, and couldn't help but exclaim at the beautiful scenery.
Before him was a vast expanse of flatland, with towering mountains rising into the clouds, and the plain itself was adorned with lush trees and vibrant flowers.
The area where the crowd stood was a huge plaza, with a compacted road surface.
It was likely a dedicated landing site for flying vessels.
The flying vessel in Seal God Palace's hands gradually shrank into a model.
The bustling noises faintly came from a distant place, its origin unknown.
Seal God Palace, Qian Sanjiang, and Hou Fang looked at the 257 Generals before them, and the three of them were stunned.
What happened to these 257 guys?
Why did they all look so pale, some with sunken eyes and dark circles, and others with a startled expression?
Even if it was their first time on a flying vessel, it shouldn't be like this for everyone, right?
These were all accomplished General Rank cultivators!
Seal God Palace frowned, "What's going on?"
"We don't know... We just feel a sense of dread."
"Exactly, we don't know why, but we just feel uneasy..."
Seal God Palace's face turned sour, thinking, "You guys... We've already arrived, and you're acting like this?"
It's fine if you guys lost your composure, but what about the Night Demon?
He quickly sent a secret message to Fang Che, "What's going on?"
Fang Che stood in the line, calmly responding with the help of Five Spirit Toad in his heart, "I don't feel anything unusual. They say there's a ghost, but I only feel a bit cold. Perhaps their fate isn't strong enough? I adjusted my cultivation to match them. If I didn't, my complexion would probably be redder than theirs."
Seal God Palace was relieved, and smiled, "Let's go! Hurry up! We should be the last group to arrive."
He led the crowd into the air, flying towards the distance.
After crossing a tall mountain, they saw an incredibly vast space ahead, filled with a sea of people. In the distance, palaces lined up endlessly, forming a massive city.
Seal God Palace led the crowd to fly over, landing nearby.
Suddenly, a figure soared from the crowd, shouting in the air, "Unified Heart Sect? Seal God Palace! Why are you so late?"
Seal God Palace quickly apologized, "Forgive me, Elder Li. Our journey was long, and we rushed here as fast as we could... We finally made it."
A cold hum came from within, "Hurry up and join the line!"
Seal God Palace replied, "Yes."
He led Fang Che and the others into the crowd, blending in like a drop of water in the ocean.
Fang Che looked ahead, and on the high platform, there were over ten people sitting on grand armchairs. There were also several empty armchairs.
Below the platform was another level, where many people were already standing.
On the ground, the Unified Heart Sect members automatically formed a line.
Qian Sanjiang and Hou Fang stood at the front of the line, exuding their full auras.
On both sides, a burly man with a fierce expression saw Fang Che looking over, and shouted, "You good-for-nothing, what are you looking at?"
Fang Che immediately retorted with a harsh tone, "What's it to you?"
The burly man said, "Try looking again?"
A clanging sound rang out.
Without a word, Fang Che drew his saber, slicing off the man's head with a single stroke, and cursed, "You deserve this! What's the big deal about looking at you? I'd rather die than put up with you!"
