Chapter 337: Fang Che's Spear, the Authentic One! [10,000 Words] (Part 1)
It turns out that the Ninth Master had arranged something for me, and it was a real benefit.
Yang Luoyu was delighted and readily agreed. This was not only an opportunity to deepen his relationship with Bu Chou, but also a great chance to seek martial arts guidance and improve himself.
After all, Bu Chou was a top expert ranked eleventh on the Cloud Sword Spectrum.
"Thank you, Ninth Master."
Yang Luoyu left in high spirits.
Just as Dong Fang Sansan was about to get busy, she saw Xue Fuxiao return shortly after, looking a bit sullen.
"Duan Xiyang didn't go to the Southeast, but that little guy's new wedding gift arrived. I have to say, that guy named Fang Che, his mouth is even more annoying than yours."
She started complaining as soon as she entered.
Dong Fang Sansan hummed but didn't speak, feeling dissatisfied with this guy wandering around the Southeast instead of handling important matters: "You took so many days just to deliver a gift? And what's more, I'm angry with myself. Knowing that Xue Han Han is a bit single-minded now, I misled him into going to deliver a message and sent him searching for Duan Xiyang all over the Southeast."
Dong Fang Sansan felt that she had made a mistake and had been introspective ever since.
Even with her own people, mistakes should not be made, although the mistake was small, but for herself, it should not be. If it continues, it will inevitably lead to other oversights.
Dong Fang Sansan began to bring up Xue Fuxiao's past mistakes.
She asked sternly, "Last time I asked you to cut down the Infernal Demon, but you didn't kill it?"
"I've told you about this. The Infernal Demon was saved by Duan Xiyang, who fought desperately to bring it back. When Duan Xiyang fights desperately, it's quite difficult to stop him."
Xue Fuxiao sighed, "However, the Infernal Demon was cut down by me, left half-dead, shattered, and it will take some time for it to recover."
Then she curiously asked, "I heard that someone from Yan Nan came?"
When Jiang Wuwang arrived, Xue Fuxiao had just returned and was handling a pile of tasks. As she was working, Yang Luoyu and Ningsnow Sword barged in, and with just a few words, she sent them on a chase for over ten thousand miles.
Seeing that the direction was so convenient, she decided to return to the Xue family and catch a few of the heads, scolding them for two days before coming back.
Hearing the words "someone from Yan Nan came," Dong Fang Sansan's mood changed; she glanced at Xue Fuxiao with a slanted eye.
Anyway, this guy has a lot of small braids, so next time she's upset, she'll bring up his past mistakes again.
So she smiled and said, "Someone from Yan Nan delivered a letter, agreeing to my proposal."
Xue Fuxiao immediately sensed something different and asked, "Eh? Why are you in such a good mood today? What happened?"
Dong Fang Sansan smiled faintly and handed over Yan Nan's reply: "Take a look, Yan Nan agreed to my plan."
"What plan?" Xue Fuxiao took the letter and read it, "A friendship battle between the young generation, tsk, friendship? We have no friendship with the Only Righteous Sect. What is this? What kind of thing is this?"
Dong Fang Sansan said, "It's exactly what you see, the literal meaning."
Xue Fuxiao frowned and said, "It was your idea? Why are you doing this?"
Dong Fang Sansan replied calmly, "Of course, there's a reason. Xue, the older generation of experts in the Only Righteous Sect, we all know them well, including those who rose after Duan Xiyang's batch. But...do you remember what you said about Jiang Wuwang, Bei Mingxin, and those in between?"
Xue Fuxiao scratched her head and said, "What? I forgot."
"You said they were nothing to worry about."
Dong Fang Sansan said solemnly, "Looking back now, those people you said were nothing to worry about are now the backbone of various departments in the Only Righteous Sect. Strictly speaking, most of the current Only Righteous Sect's affairs are controlled by these people."
"And our old opponents from back then rarely appear now."
Dong Fang Sansan continued solemnly, "But we...are still fighting on the front lines. Whenever something happens, we have to personally charge into battle."
Xue Fuxiao fell silent. This was the truth.
"Because we worry that Yang Luoyu, Dong Changfeng, and the others, if they encounter Duan Xiyang and the rest, they might die on the spot without a chance for rescue. Although we know this hinders their growth, we can't afford to lose them."
Dong Fang Sansan sighed and said, "The intermediate generation of the Only Righteous Sect has gradually risen, and their strength has reached the level to enter the top 100 of the Cloud Sword Spectrum. Do you know how many people there are?"
"One hundred and twenty. But only a dozen of them entered the Cloud Sword Spectrum. The rest disappeared into various departments of the Only Righteous Sect. And the strength of these one hundred and twenty people is improving every year."
Dong Fang Sansan sighed.
Xue Fuxiao fell silent for a moment and asked, "And our people during the same period?"
"Our people, thirty-seven appeared. Among them, twenty-five entered the Cloud Sword Spectrum."
Dong Fang Sansan said calmly, "The total number is ninety less than the opponent!"
"So few?" Xue Fuxiao widened her eyes.
"Then count it yourself."
Dong Fang Sansan said calmly, "The older generation like Duan Xiyang, the Infernal Demon, the Hundred Blade, and the others don't count. Just the intermediate generation, over these thousands of years...our Cloud Sword Spectrum-level experts are ninety less than the opponent. Do you know what this means?"
"We can only fight three to one, not one against three."
Dong Fang Sansan hummed, "It's not that...for these people's battles, like competing for the Cloud Sword Spectrum ranking, you, Xue Fuxiao, won't go, right?"
"If one day, the Cloud Sword Spectrum ranking battle is held, then...both sides will have people falling. The Only Righteous Sect can afford it, but we can't."
This is the reason why I've been suppressing the Cloud Sword Spectrum and not updating the rankings for so many years."
Dong Fang San San heaved a long sigh.
"Before, we were the ones benefiting from this list, but after the Only Righteous Sect discovered this, they gradually stopped competing for rankings. Those with sufficient strength didn't enter the list, and this is a bit uncomfortable."
Dong Fang San San sighed.
Xue Fuxiao rolled her eyes and said, "You've been suppressing them with various lists for over ten thousand years, isn't that enough? You're even sighing now. It's just the Cloud Sword Spectrum, and you've almost played it to the extreme. What's so surprising about them waking up?"
Dong Fang San San smiled bitterly, "In fact, they could have woken up long ago, but they were just clinging to their pride. But when I hoped they would cling to it even more, they didn't... This means that their new generation has begun to take control. This sign is not good for us."
"The older generation is burdened by their fame, but the younger generation isn't. Moreover, they have no bottom line, which is unfavorable for us."
Xue Fuxiao fell silent for a moment and asked, "Then what does this have to do with the friendship battle between the rising stars of the Martial Marquis, Martial General, and Royal levels that you mentioned?"
Dong Fang San San looked at Xue Fuxiao with a gaze that seemed to suggest she was mentally challenged, and said, "Xiao Xue, you really had to ask that question."
Xue Fuxiao was taken aback, "Shouldn't I ask?"
"Yes, you should ask. Because if you don't, you'll never figure it out in this lifetime."
Dong Fang San San coughed.
Xue Fuxiao's face turned black with anger, and she immediately wanted to storm out of the room.
But she still couldn't understand, and said, "Then tell me."
"The reason for proposing this friendship battle is that we don't have much information about the young experts from the Only Righteous Sect. Especially with the Incubation to Immortality Plan, Night Demon is oppressing the world alone, causing the performance of others to be mediocre."
Dong Fang San San said, "Based on the current information, I can't find the future opponents of the young people, nor can I identify those who pose the greatest threat. This is extremely dangerous for Mo Gan Yun and his group because the enemy is hidden. So we must help them screen them out."
"Therefore, we need to find a way to bring them out. This desire for victory in battle is something the Only Righteous Sect cannot refuse."
Xue Fuxiao asked, "What about those above the Imperial level?"
Dong Fang San San replied, "You mean Feng Yun, Feng Yue, Wu Di, Bai Ye, and the others? I've already found a way to record them all. Moreover, the information is constantly being updated and improved over time."
"With this batch, we can record them again, and basically... the younger generation will be clear."
He sighed deeply and said, "Xiao Xue, you know that the number of Heaven's Pride talents emerging from this younger generation of the Only Righteous Sect far exceeds the number of those in the intermediate generation that we often talk about!"
"So, I must start recording every single one of them from now on and create individual files. Otherwise, it'll be too late when this group of people grows up."
Worry filled Dong Fang San San's face.
Xue Fuxiao was shocked and asked, "More than the previous batch? How many more? In the previous batch, there were already 127 people with the strength to enter the top 100 of the Cloud Sword Spectrum. Is this batch even more?"
"Yes, if we calculate it accurately, the minimum is... over 300 people. And among these 300 people, we have complete information on no more than 60 of them."
Dong Fang San San said calmly, "Yan Nan will definitely receive my letter, be suspicious, and constantly guess what my intentions are. But he will never guess that my intention is exactly as it seems—I just want to see their genius. Haha, it's brilliant, truly brilliant."
Dong Fang San San rolled her eyes and said, "Of course, I have other intentions, and he has definitely already guessed them. But he's guessed wrong and has fallen into my scheme."
Xue Fuxiao: "..."
It felt like their conversation was never in sync.
Dong Fang San San said, "My main purpose is naturally to understand these young people so that we can take targeted actions in the future. But another purpose is to help Night Demon and make his name known to the ears of the Vice Sect Leaders."
Xue Fuxiao looked wise and confident, saying, "And the third purpose is to pick a few to kill, right?"
Dong Fang San San: "There's no third purpose."
Xue Fuxiao: "..."
She felt like she was holding her breath, unable to breathe for a long time.
Half a day later, she burst out in anger, "You and I are fundamentally incompatible! I'm leaving!"
She turned and stormed out of the room.
Dong Fang San San: "Didn't you come here with something to say?"
Xue Fuxiao immediately returned, "Yes, I did have something to say. What was it that I wanted to tell you?"
She scratched her head, and suddenly her mind went blank, unable to remember what she had come for.
Dong Fang San San held back her laughter and reminded her, "Infernal Demon?"
"Yes, that's it. Infernal Demon has been cut down by us..."
Xue Fuxiao spoke halfway, her face turned dark, and she turned and left.
With a bang, the door closed.
She left, cursing all the way.
Smoke rose from her seven apertures.
This was simply outrageous!
San'er was toying with her!
...
At the Yin Shengong, five peak experts from Yi Xin Jiao were summoned to set off for Mountain Shift Gate. He felt that the situation at Mountain Shift Gate was urgent and had to be resolved immediately.
Night Demon had already started killing, and he had to go there himself.
Otherwise, the Branch would be in trouble, and his reward would be gone...
However, an unexpected incident occurred on the way.
They were attacked!
Not long after leaving Yi Xin Jiao, as they passed through a dimly lit forest, a sudden cold light flashed like a bolt of thunder.
A Sovereign Rank Eight Grade reverent, a member of the Veneration Rank, was suddenly struck down by a sword, his body exploding on the spot, creating a mist of blood. The Demon Sect High Command, enraged, unleashed the Snow Spirit Seven Swords, but only managed to tear off a piece of the opponent's flesh.
The dark shadow swiftly crossed through the dense forest and disappeared.
The Demon Sect High Command roared in anger.
"Hai Wuliang! You dare to show yourself again!"
The other four reverents simultaneously attacked, but their strikes met only empty air.
Hai Wuliang was too fast. With a single successful strike, he retreated, his body moving like a meteor, and instantly vanished into the forest, adhering to the principles of an assassin.
He withdrew after a single strike, ensuring his safety.
A sinister voice seemed to emanate from all directions.
"Demon Sect High Command, you're nothing but a despicable coward who only knows how to secretly harm others with your reports. Do you feel satisfied now?"
Hai Wuliang's cruel voice echoed, and before he could finish his sentence, his figure had already shifted in ten different directions, making it impossible to capture him.
The Demon Sect High Command's face darkened.
Unexpectedly, Hai Wuliang hadn't fled far; instead, he had been lingering near the Yi Xin Sect.
"Hai Wuliang, come out and talk."
The Demon Sect High Command shouted.
"I have nothing to discuss with you."
Hai Wuliang's voice echoed, and even the Demon Sect High Command couldn't pinpoint his location.
However, as soon as the Demon Sect High Command spoke, Hai Wuliang immediately responded, indicating that he hadn't gone far.
"Demon Sect High Command, do you know why I haven't left?"
Hai Wuliang's voice resonated like a night owl: "I haven't left because of you. Until I kill you, I, Hai Wuliang, will never be content in this life."
"From now on, I live only to kill you!"
The Demon Sect High Command's face darkened: "It's your own fault for acting recklessly and offending too many people, leading to your current predicament. This has nothing to do with me, the Demon Sect High Command."
"Hehehe..."
Hai Wuliang's voice was elusive and filled with cruelty: "Demon Sect High Command, nothing you say matters. I've said it before—if I, Hai Wuliang, am done for, you won't have it easy either."
The Demon Sect High Command's anger reached its peak.
Why are you targeting me specifically when there are so many people after you, Hai Wuliang? He spoke: "Hai Wuliang, you were once a Sect Leader too. Why be so extreme? If you're willing, the Yi Xin Sect is currently lacking a Vice Sect Leader. You don't have to use your real name. We can find a way to give you a new identity, and together, we can create a glorious future."
The mountain wind rustled, but Hai Wuliang remained silent.
The Demon Sect High Command spoke sincerely: "Think about it. If you and I join forces in a subordinate sect, what could we achieve? With our abilities, even catching up to the Five Elements Ice and Fire Seven Colors wouldn't be difficult."
Hai Wuliang coldly laughed: "You're dreaming. First, you want to take me down, and then you expect me to be your deputy, serving you..."
Before he could finish his sentence, the Demon Sect High Command, who had been waiting for the right moment, silently merged with his sword and attacked.
A flash of sword light pierced through the forest.
The clash of weapons reverberated through the forest.
Hai Wuliang's body, like a wisp of smoke, mocked: "Demon Sect High Command, your tricks are useless. I've played these games before."
The Demon Sect High Command looked at the blood-stained tip of his sword and said calmly: "You still got injured playing those games. Hai Wuliang, to be honest, if I were in your position, I would've committed suicide. What's the point of living?"
Hai Wuliang fell silent.
The other four reverents remained silent, standing back-to-back, on guard.
They focused all their attention, as if facing a formidable enemy.
They understood that Hai Wuliang's single attack might not pose a threat to the Demon Sect High Command, but it was a deadly move for them.
After all, Hai Wuliang was once a Sect Leader.
Like their own Sect Leader, he was a Venerable Rank expert, specifically a High-Rank Venerable.
They were only High-Rank Monarchs, and if Hai Wuliang intended to assassinate them, taking one of them out with a single move wouldn't be difficult.
The Demon Sect High Command returned to the four reverents' side. Hai Wuliang has set his sights on them.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go back."
He was well aware that with Hai Wuliang, a venomous snake, lying in ambush outside, constantly attacking them, it would be dangerous to insist on going to the Mountain Shift Gate.
The Demon Sect High Command's face was grim as he looked at the dead reverent.
He immediately reported to headquarters: "Hai Wuliang is currently ambushing outside the Yi Xin Sect, killing its high-level members. Please send reinforcements from headquarters to eliminate this traitor."
Upon returning to the headquarters, he couldn't hide his worry.
If he couldn't go out, how would he resolve the crisis at the Mountain Shift Gate for Ye Meng? Fang Che was also considering this issue, feeling that the Demon Sect High Command should be able to handle it.
However, the news from the Demon Sect High Command left Fang Che dumbfounded.
The Demon Sect High Command couldn't leave.
Hai Wuliang was ambushing...
What the hell is going on?
Fang Che instantly felt like he had lifted a rock only to drop it on his foot.
How could the Guardian handle the Mountain Shift Gate when, at this stage, due to Heaven's Escort Bureau, the Mountain Shift Gate's Only Righteous Sect identity couldn't be exposed?
The Guardian had to pretend to be unaware of the Mountain Shift Gate's identity and position to ensure Heaven's Escort Bureau's legitimacy.
Zheng Yunqi's aristocratic family, despite their influence, was too distant to exert significant pressure on the Yi Shan Men sect. While they could ask for favors, it was unreasonable to expect perpetual compliance.
Especially since someone from their family had died.
Once Zhao Wu Shang and his group left, the situation for Heaven's Escort Bureau would undoubtedly worsen.
What if the Yi Shan Men sect were to truly come knocking on their door now? Fang Che couldn't help but feel a twinge of melancholy.
He didn't regret killing those two, but he was genuinely taken aback by the fact that the Yin Shengong was blocked by Hai Wuliang at the headquarters, unable to leave.
