Linchuan, night.
In a valley, lights were faintly discernible.
Outside the valley, many figures with cold auras were watching every move in the valley.
Not far away, there was an army stationed on the plains. The murderous aura of iron blood pervaded the air, causing the surrounding 1,000 feet to be extremely quiet. Not even the sound of insects could be heard.
In the valley.
There were also many figures hiding in the dark, vigilantly watching the outside of the valley.
They were afraid that someone would suddenly kill their way into the valley.
A tense and murderous aura slowly spread in all directions from the valley.
This valley was the encampment of the remaining members of the Heavenly Lotus Cult.
"Damn it!"
"This brat, Qin Wang, actually dared to trick this old man.”
In the depths of the valley, a furious roar filled with endless anger came from a wooden house.
In the wooden house, more than ten figures stood on both sides.
In the upper position, there was an old man with white hair. He was dressed in black and his anger soared to the sky.
After the old man roared a few times, his face darkened.
His cold gaze swept across everyone present and he said in a cold tone,"Tomorrow, the King of Qin will lead all the martial artists in the world. Do you have any countermeasures?”
The few people present had extremely ugly expressions.
Qin Wang's move was something they had never expected.
When the King of Qin had just announced their hiding place to the world, it was not that they had not made a response.
The first choice was to move.
However, just as they moved, the army under the king of Qin directly killed them and retreated.
Helplessly, he could only avoid the attack.
They returned to the valley.
Unable to shift the situation, the people of the Heavenly Lotus Society had tried to spread the news that they had worked with the King of Qin to make the Celestial Beings despise him.
At that time, the King of Qin's summons would naturally be useless.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
After their news spread, all the martial artists in the world sneered with disdain.
"You actually used such a clumsy plan to slander the King of Qin. You're simply making a fool of yourselves.”
"The King of Qin is an upright person. How can you slander him?”
"As expected of a rat that has lived for thousands of years. His methods are so disgusting.”
"Hahaha, grandson of the Heavenly Lotus Society, are you trying to kill your grandfather with such a clumsy method?”
"Humph!"
"Everyone can kill the remaining members of the Heavenly Lotus Cult.”
These mocking and mocking voices were the response of the martial artists in the world to them.
After hearing these responses, the upper echelons of the Heavenly Lotus Society were so angry that they almost vomited blood.
Inside the house.
The old man saw that everyone still did not say a word after he asked. They just stood there with an ugly expression.
He couldn't help but burn with anger and curse,"Trash, you're all a bunch of trash.”
"Vice Patriarch."
A middle-aged man walked out with a bitter smile as the old man cursed.
"It's not that we're useless. It's just that in the current situation, we're already at our wits 'end."”
"It's fine if there's the army of the King of Qin guarding outside the valley.”
"The few of us can give up our disciples and fight our way out.”
"But outside the valley, there are not only the army under the king of Qin's command. There are also many experts guarding it.”
"Just from what I can sense, there are already five people at the Myriad Manifestation Realm outside the valley. They have been watching us all this while. If we make any move, these five experts will definitely attack together.”
Five Myriad Phenomenon Realm experts were nothing to them.
After all, all of them were at the Vientiane Realm. There were even two Ascension Realm experts.
However, pulling one hair would affect the whole body.
Five Myriad Phenomenon Realm experts, many Profound Finger Realm experts, and the army under the Qin Emperor.
It was enough to stop them. Many experts from Linjiang rushed over and surrounded them.
"Could it be that we can only sit and wait for death?”
Yu Shen, the Deputy Patriarch of the Heavenly Lotus Society, calmed down a little and said with an ugly face.
The assassination of Qin Wang had directly plunged them into a crisis of survival.
The current plan.
Other than fighting to the death with the martial artists of the world and the army under the command of the King of Qin tomorrow, there seemed to be no better way.
"We can only fight to the death."
The middle-aged man from earlier pondered for a long time before he laughed bitterly and said,"Our opponents are not only the martial artists of the world and the King of Qin, but also the one in the north.”
Speaking of the one in the north, Yu Can's face turned even more embarrassed.
His dark and cold gaze also looked towards an old man in the crowd. His killing intent was almost condensed into a substance.
"Trash."
"If it weren't for you, trash, who insisted on assassinating the Northguard Marquis and exposing us to him, this wouldn't have happened.”
As he cursed, Yu Shen stepped up to him under the old man's frightened gaze.
He grabbed his neck and slowly raised it up.
"Vice Sect Leader Rao... Spare me!"
The old man looked at Yu Shen with his eyes slightly bulging, his face full of fear. He begged for mercy with a trembling voice.
"Humph!"
"If it weren't for the fact that there's a great enemy in front of me, this old man would have killed you right now.”
Hearing the old man's plea, Yu Shen was thrown away and smashed heavily on the ground.
Back then, when he heard that this old man had sent people to the Northern Territory to assassinate the Northern Marquis, he was furious and realized that the matter was serious.
However, the matter had already happened, and they had lost an All Creations.
He only gave him a small punishment and did not kill him directly.
However, from the looks of it now, it was better to kill him directly at that time to avoid being irritated by him now.
"Thank you for sparing my life, Vice Patriarch."
Blood trickled out of the corner of the old man's mouth. He struggled to get up and knelt down to Yu Shen again to thank him.
"Trash."
Yu Shen gave him a glare, then ignored this useless man.
"Vice Patriarch."
"Although our Heavenly Lotus Sect is facing the crisis of being exterminated this time, and if we're not careful, we'll fall into eternal damnation.”
As the atmosphere froze, a young man in white walked out from the crowd.
"But we still have a chance of survival."”
"A chance of survival?"
When everyone in the room heard this, their eyes focused and they looked over in unison.
"Speak."
Yu Shen frowned and said nothing.
"With our strength, it's difficult for us to resist the encirclement of martial artists from all over the world.”
Bai Yao's eyes flashed with passion as he said this.
Even his tone became respectful as he said loudly,"However, if Cult Master comes out of seclusion, we don't have to fear even if all the martial artists in the world come.”
"Cult Master?"
When everyone heard this, their expressions changed drastically.
Even their bodies began to tremble slightly, and their faces were slightly pale. Clearly, they had recalled something that made them extremely afraid.
Yu Can fell into deep thought again after hearing Bai Yao's words.
He had never doubted the Cult Master's strength.
However, the Cult Master had been in seclusion for nearly ten years. No one knew if the Cult Master would come out of seclusion now.
Moreover,
If they disturbed the Cult Master's cultivation, under the Cult Master's rage, not many of the people present might survive.
"Deputy Patriarch, this is a good idea.”
"After all, we all know how powerful the Cult Master is. As long as he comes out of seclusion, this crisis will definitely be resolved.”
The middle-aged man pondered for a moment, then said to Yu Shen in a deep voice.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Although they were terrified of the sect master, they didn't even dare to face him.
But now, it was already a life and death moment for the Heavenly Lotus Society.
No matter how terrified he was, this was the last resort if he did not want the Heavenly Lotus Society to be destroyed.
Everyone agreed.
Only the old man, who was still kneeling on the ground, was trembling and his face was pale.
The intense fear almost suffocated him.
Once the Cult Master came out of seclusion, his ending could be imagined. He had committed such a huge mistake.
This caused the Heavenly Lotus Cult to fall into a crisis.
They would definitely be tortured by the Cult Master until they wished they were dead to show their obedience.
In that case, it would be better to kill him and give him pain. It would be better than the Cult Master's torture.
"Damn it!"
Yu Can, who had been pondering for a long time, sensed it too.
Now, other than asking the Sect Leader to leave, the situation of the Heavenly Lotus Society had become a dead end.
"Follow me and respectfully invite Cult Master to come out of seclusion.”
Taking a deep breath, Yu Shen glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice.
When everyone heard this, they all nodded slightly.
When the old man kneeling on the ground heard this, he immediately raised his head in fear.
"Bang!"
However, as soon as I raised my head, Yu Shen knocked me out.
Everyone frowned when they saw this scene.
However, he did not say a word and pretended not to see anything.
Someone had to bear the Cult Master's wrath when they invited him out of seclusion, as long as it wasn't them.
Who would be meddlesome?
...
......
At the same time.
Linjiang, Prince Qin's Residence.
Tonight, the King of Qin invited many martial artists to a banquet.
All martial artists in the world, as long as they were above Rank-8, could enter King Qin's Mansion to sit.
As for rank-nine martial artists…
Even if the King of Qin wanted to recruit all the martial artists in the world, he would not take a fancy to someone with such cultivation.
There were billions of rank-nine people in the world.
Only those with a bit of money in their families could achieve it.
In the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, there were at least a hundred million rank-nine martial artists, if not a billion.
In the main hall of the residence.
Qin Wang slowly stood up and raised the wine cup in his hand. He laughed and said,"Everyone."
"This king is hosting a banquet today. All of you have come to attend the banquet.”
"A toast to everyone."
As he spoke, Qin Wang downed the wine in his hand.
"Hahaha."
"Your Highness, there's no need to be like this. We're just a bunch of boorish people. It's already our honor to be appreciated by your Highness.”
Those who could enter the main hall were all itinerant cultivators above Rank-1, or people from sects or aristocratic families.
How could they really be a group of boorish people? These people had many thoughts.
They believed that the King of Qin had set up a banquet today for some other purpose. It was not just to reward the warriors who had come to exterminate the remnants of the Heavenly Lotus Cult.
"Humph!"
"This Qin King is indeed disloyal.”
In a corner, Liyue, who had received the empress's order to come to Linchuan, naturally came to this banquet.
In the dark, he had been observing Qin Wang.
