Li Zhuoying followed Mo Wen into the depths of Intentionless Sect. The area was remote and essentially a place that nobody would come to. However, because of the pursuit between Li Zhuoying and Mo Wen, quite a number of people that were from the sects involved in the battle now noticed the area a little more.
However, they simply looked on from afar. Nobody intended to get any closer. Amongst those from Intentionless Sect, all the Sect Elders were involved in the battle and were unable to be in two places at once. The others were afraid of Li Zhuoying’s abilities and naturally did not wish to send themselves to their graves.
As for Sacred Flame Sect, with their Deputy Sect Leader taking action personally, they naturally did not have to step forth and do anything. Many people were already guessing just what would happen to Mo Wen once he landed in Li Zhuoying’s hands.
“Lad, your speed is indeed not slow. However, there is no use in running.” Li Zhuoying was still chasing close behind Mo Wen. Seeing a youth run at such speed actually made him feel a little happy. This youth was simply an oddball. At such a young age, he was able to achieve such a feat. He was essentially a wizard. However, such an amazing talent was about to die at his hands and it actually made Li Zhuoying feel quite excited. He had a faint sense of savage and perverse enjoyment.
“Old thing, playing catch? You really think too highly of yourself.” Who would have expected that with a flash of his figure, Mo Wen would suddenly stop mid-run? He turned around to look at Li Zhuoying and his mouth turned up into a mocking smile.
“Not running anymore?” A questioning look flashed in Li Zhuoying’s eyes. He looked at Mo Wen with an emboldened look. He had suddenly felt as though something was not right. However, everything was normal and he could not really put his finger on what was wrong.
After all, he was a master with the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm. The youth was just a lad that was still wet behind the ears. What could there be for him to be wary of? Thinking of that, he smiled darkly and said, “Lad, today, you will be dead for sure.” As he said that, he pounced towards Mo Wen.
“It’s still uncertain who will actually die.” Mo Wen smiled coldly. Then, he flicked his finger and something that looked like a stratagem board appeared in his hand. In the next moment, a black ray of light shot into the air. Immediately, it caused the entire sky to darken and everything plunged into darkness.
“Stratagem.” A look of surprise flashed in Li Zhuoying’s eyes. Intentionless Sect truly had substance if they were able to whip out a stratagem. However, what did it matter if that was the case? Could it be that a youth would just rely on a stratagem to tackle him? Moreover, this stratagem did not look like one with a very strong attack.
Although everything before his eyes was dark, to an ancient martial art practitioner with the Golden Elixir realm, it naturally had no effect. He was still able to faintly see his surroundings, just not as clearly as before. He could feel a strong power surrounding the stratagem. However, that power was not of the attack type. Instead, it simply felt like one that was restraining him.
Li Zhuoying looked at Mo Wen who was in front of him and noticed that he was also in the stratagem. Immediately, he broke into a loud laugh, “A turtle caught in a jar, such easy prey. Let’s see how you escape this time.”
He had not expected that Mo Wen would actually trap himself within the stratagem as well. Just what was he thinking of doing? Even if he wanted to die, he did not have to do it that way.
“You don’t believe it even if I call you an idiot. I already said that I won’t run. I believe the one who wants to escape is you. However, even if you wanted to, you would not have the chance.”
Mo Wen looked troubled as he held his head. Just what was making this Li Zhuoying so confident? He still seemed to think he had the upper hand. Was he really stupid enough to believe that?
He could not blame Li Zhuoying for being that way, because in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, the Golden Elixir realm was a presence that could throw their weight around. In any of the powers, they were the top of all masters. A youth like Mo Wen in the eyes of Li Zhuoying, a master in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, was naturally insignificant.
“Lad, in a moment, you will understand what it means to bring trouble on yourself.”
Li Zhuoying laughed coldly. He had seen many youths behave so crazily just because they had a bit of capability. This Mo Wen was just one of them. A proper Deputy Sect Leader of the Sacred Flame Sect like him would not be scared of such a minor character.
“I think you are the one who is bringing trouble upon yourself.” A ray of white light shone down and an elder with white hair and a white beard appeared before Li Zhuoying. His robe was dancing in the air and his gaze was fiercely fixed on Li Zhuoying.
“Chen Wuhui!” Li Zhuoying exclaimed in surprise. He looked at the old man in a white robe as though he had just seen a ghost. It was the Sect Leader of Intentionless Sect, Chen Wuhui. Wasn’t he seriously injured all over, poisoned, and half-dead on his bead? How could he possibly appear here, especially with such radiance and health!
He simply did not dare believe his eyes. Chen Wuhui being down with a serious illness was vital in all their plans. With that premise, the Sacred Flame Sect had dared to head forth to Intentionless Sect. If not, even if Sacred Flame Sect was stronger than Intentionless Sect, neither side would gain from them trying to take over Intentionless Sect. Being destroyed indiscriminately was too high a price to pay for Sacred Flame Sect.
“Impossible, didn’t you get poisoned? What about your injuries!” Li Zhuoying looked at Chen Wuhui in disbelief. What about Yu Guang? Didn’t he already have this old b*stard under control! Moreover, he had said that the serious injuries on this old b*stard coupled with the poisoning would ensure that he would not recover so quickly. With Yu Guang’s meddling, even if Chen Wuhui did not die, his chances of recovery were not high. Yet, he was still able to appear!
“You definitely wish that I had already passed on. It is such a pity that I have disappointed you,” Chen Wuhui looked at Li Zhuoying expressionlessly. The aura exuding from his body was stronger than ever, so strong that it had forced itself down on Li Zhuoying entirely.
His Cultivation was still of a higher level than Li Zhuoying. Perhaps, only the Sacred Flame Sect Leader, Zhu Lanhuo, could compare to him.
“How could it be! Old b*stard, you must be a fake.” Li Zhuoying’s face grew entirely pale. He simply could not believe what was happening before his eyes. Initially, he thought that it was not too tough for Sacred Flame Sect to take Intentionless Sect down. However, now that the old b*stard had appeared, the outcome was tough to predict. If Chen Wuhui made full use of his power, even he and Zhu Lanhuo, the two Sacred Flame Sect Leaders, would have to suffer.
“Fake? You will find out once you try.” Chen Wuhui took a step out. In a moment, his figure had appeared in front of Li Zhuoying. He lightly whipped out a fist and the frightening power caused the darkness all around them to tremble.
Li Zhuoying’s eyes narrowed. The frightening pressure had pounced towards him and he simply did not dare to overlook anything. He also threw out a fist going straight against Chen Wuhui.
He hoped that the Chen Wuhui before his eyes was fake and that they had produced one exactly identical to pose as him.
However, the reality was cruel.
The fists and palms collided. Li Zhuoying was sent flying immediately. He knocked into the blackness behind him before he stopped.
Meanwhile, Chen Wuhui’s body was simply still for a moment before he unloaded all the anti-shock force.
“You... you old b*stard Chen Wuhui, how could you possibly recover fully... how is it possible...” Now Li Zhuoying finally had to believe what was in front of him. The old man was indeed Chen Wuhui. If not, he would not have been able to defeat him so easily with a fist. But what about this old man’s injuries? And what about the poison in his body? Sacred Flame Sect had meticulously arranged for everything. Could it be that in the end, everything had been for naught?
“Thanks to my young friend Mo Wen, I have been living well,” Chen Wuhui said serenely.
“So everything had been done by this lad. Just who are you?” Li Zhuoying seemed to have finally understood something as he looked at Mo Wen fiercely. After this youth had appeared, it was as though everything had changed.
“You still don’t have the right to know about my identity. I have said it just now, you are the one who is tired of living. I’m afraid that you will have to pay for your mistakes here today.” Mo Wen’s lips curled up as he looked at Li Zhuoying mockingly. At the moment, Li Zhuoying was just like a bird stuck in a cage that simply could not escape.
“Ridiculous, you think Chen Wuhui alone would be able to kill me? I admit that I am not his match. However, it is still an impossible feat for him to kill me.” Li Zhuoying’s face turned dark and his gaze was so cold that it could turn water to ice.
“I am just very curious about how you do it.” Li Zhuoying’s gaze was fixed on Mo Wen. Inside him, an unprecedented desire to kill welled up. This youth could not be left alive. If he was not killed, he would be a huge threat to Sacred Flame Sect.
Now he finally understood. Right from the start, he had already fallen into the trap of this youth.
“What can you do if I refuse to tell you?” Mo Wen mocked.
“Lad, you’ve got guts. This is not the end. I believe that when we meet again, you won’t be talking to me like that anymore.” Li Zhuoying looked at Mo Wen coldly. Then, he retreated. He simply did not want to continue at it with Mo Wen. Because, with Chen Wuhui around, it was impossible for him to do anything to Mo Wen. In fact, it was a risk for him. Moreover, with such a huge turn in events, he had to relay the news to Sacred Flame Sect. If they continued to be kept in the dark, the consequences would be dire.
He finally understood why those ten Sacred Flame Sect Elders had all disappeared. Others may not have been able to do it but Chen Wuhui could. With his Cultivation coupled with some traps and plans, he would indeed be able to execute Sect Elders with the beginning stage of the Golden Elixir realm one after the other.
The scariest thing was ignorance. When one did not expect things, they would not look out for it. If neglected, it would lead to disastrous consequences. It could be said that if Sacred Flame Sect had known from the start that this hidden threat, Chen Wuhui, was still around, they would never have attacked Intentionless Sect. Even if they had, they would not have deployed their troops that way, and the ten Sacred Flame Sect Elders probably would not have died.
Thinking of that, Li Zhuoying did not want to stay a moment more over there. He had to return to the outside immediately and relay the news to everyone.
“Do you think that you can still escape at this stage?” Chen Wuhui asked calmly.
“Old b*stard Chen, don’t exploit your seniority. I myself know that I am not your match. However, if you want to restrain me, that is impossible as well. It is just a stratagem. Do you really think that you can have me trapped inside it?” Li Zhuoying smiled coldly. He was not Chen Wuhui’s match. However, they were both ancient martial art practitioners with the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm. It would also be very difficult for Chen Wuhui to kill him, especially if he was bent on escaping.
As for that stratagem, he simply did not give it any heed. It was just a simple stratagem. It was probably still possible for it to trap ancient martial art practitioners with the beginning stage of the Golden Elixir realm. However, they had to be dreaming if they thought of trapping him inside.
“Do you really think you can escape?” Mo Wen smiled a very radiant smile.
