Chapter 85: Mountain Goose Uprising – Smuggle

[I've found Xie Tian. Can I eat him?]

Xu Xiuying glanced at her phone and read the message. She maintained her poker face even though she was excited.

In secret, Xu Xiuying texted back.

[No. I want you to disguise him as one of us. Pretend that you have found an injured disciple, and you want to bring her back to our sect. I'll let the others handle the task, so you can take part in the siege.]

Xiong Zhenzhen didn't reply. But after a minute, she walked out of the infirmary with the physician elder while they were carrying someone on a stretcher.

Sleeping peacefully on the stretcher was a paled woman. Her long messy black hair covered her face, and a thick white sheet covered her body. From a glance, everyone could mistake the sleeping woman as a deceased person.

…

Wei Xiang had been observing Xiong Zhenzhen ever since she stepped foot in the central square. When the girl jumped into the infirmary, he also followed after her like a stalker.

Xiong Zhenzhen was Wei Xiang's crush and his heart devil. He wanted to violate his rival and make her his concubine. However, he never got her attention.

When Xiong Zhenzhen came out with a mysterious injured girl on the stretcher, Wei Xiang was curious.

'I thought my men had searched every place for runaway disciples, especially female disciples. How did this girl slip through?'

Wei Xiang took advantage of the chaos by capturing all women to turn them into his seedbeds. As a demon like him couldn't find a fellow oni woman to be his bride, he had to copulate with human cultivators to make babies.

Aside from succubi and dual cultivators, human cultivators had troubles of having babies since they were less inclined to have sex after they reached the 5th stage. Merging qi and forming essence required a pristine state of mind, so they sacrificed their worldly desire for strength.

The chance of having babies, especially hidden demons in human societies, was almost impossible if they consummated with human cultivators. Even if they had babies, the children might not inherit their demon bloodline.

Thus, Wei Xiang needed numbers. Before he reached the 5th stage, where he had to discard his libido and his sex life, he needed to find a compatible partner for reproduction. Or else, he would have to remain single for the rest of eternity.

Of course, someone beautiful and strong like Xiong Zhenzhen would have been an ideal wife, but she had already reached the 5th stage. Thus, Wei Xiang had to pick a temporary wife to carry his seeds until he could subdue Xiong Zhenzhen.

Curious of what Xiong Zhenzhen did, Wei Xiang approached her.

"Who's on the stretcher?"

The red eyes of Xiong Zhenzhen glared at the oni. She clicked his tongue in annoyance, and her manifested spiritual aura, the humanoid blue flame, stood between the girl and Wei Xiang.

The burning red eyes of the [Stand] stared into Wei Xiang's eyes, gesturing him to back off.

"Hey, Zhenzhen. I'm only doing my job. I have to check who's in or who's out. I haven't seen this girl on the stretcher before, so I need to investigate, okay?"

Knowing that he wasn't Xiong Zhenzhen's match at the moment, Wei Xiang avoided a direct confrontation. After all, fighting a 5th stage cultivator with a completed spirit aura was like fighting two masters at the same time.

The girl mumbled in a quiet voice, but it was audible to Wei Xiang, "This, my food. You, scram."

"…"

Facing the threatening aura and her seriousness, Wei Xiang stepped aside. He glanced at the physician elder, who was carrying another side of the stretcher.

The elder shook his head, telling Wei Xiang not to do anything.

Wei Xiang sighed. He flew back toward his clansmen in disappointment.

Xiong Zhenzhen snorted and continued to carry the mysterious girl to the Xu Clan's group. She brought the patient to Xu Xiuying.

"… Done. Hungry again. Where, food?"

Xu Xiuying smirked and intentionally spoke louder than usual, so everybody could hear it, "Good job. That's definitely one of our outer disciples. I don't know how she got this injured after the transfer, but we'll take care of it."

Fu De and Wei Huang squinted their eyes in suspicion, but they couldn't find fault in Xu Xiuying's words. The patient's cultivation was barely level 1 of the 2nd stage, so they didn't think that she could be someone important.

Weak disciples who came with Xu Xiuying as backups took over the patient. They carried the stretcher and brought her down the mountain.

*RUMBLE*

After the mysterious girl, aka Xie Tian, was being carried down the mountain, all elders and the three clan leaders began their assaults.

…

While the three forces were bickering about the slices of their cakes, Jia Shan finished gathering his allies and activated the sect's protection arrays. A large blue barrier dome protected the inner courtyards and the top of the mountain.

Jian Meng, three 5th stage elders, and twenty 4th stage managers answered Jia Shan's call for help. As for the rest, they either escaped or joined Wei Huang's side.

Core disciples and inner disciples already retreated. Jia Shan had ordered them to evacuate as the Wei Clan might take advantage of this situation and capture these bystanding disciples as slaves.

Because of Wei Huang's impulsive action during the examination a few days ago, Jia Shan was offended. It was like getting slapped on his face in public as his subordinate dared to attack him.

Thus, Jia Shan prepared to rally a force to eradicate the Wei Clan to set an example not to mess with him.

As for Luo Cheng, the matter was complicated.

Jia Shan was aware that Luo Cheng was working as a spy of the Xu Clan because he was forced. The dwarf's daughter had been abducted to the silver phoenix sect's main branch, but she was selected as a legacy disciple of Xu Xiuying's mother, the real sect master of the silver phoenix sect. Then, Luo Cheng was blackmailed to follow Xu Xiuying's orders, or the daughter's fate would not be guaranteed.

The sect master did his best to save his friend's only family member by appointing him with many important roles, so the dwarf could be useful to Xu Xiuying, and the innocent girl could survive.

In the end, Jia Shan intentionally left Xie Tian and Luo Cheng behind, so the obvious spy would return to Xu Xiuying. The sword saint also entrusted the protagonist to Luo Cheng, hoping that the secret of space-and-time would be useful for the dwarf's family in the future.

After the fight started, Jia Shan could destroy the Wei Clan without worrying about his friend or Xie Tian's safety.

Jia Shan gazed at the scenery from the mountaintop in solemn. He abandoned the thoughts of his friend. The next time they meet, they might be enemies.

"Sect master, everyone is ready. All array masters can activate the Nine Fish Killing Formation at any time. What is your next order?"

Jian Meng, Jia Shan's right-hand man, finished handling the tasks. He waited for the decision of his boss.

"How is Wei Huang's side? How many people he brings?"

"From what we've investigated, Wei Huang managed to request Fu De and Xu Xiuying's help. Those two overlords have joined hands with the Wei Clan. They bring about ten 5th stage masters and 30 4th stage elites."

Jia Shan snorted as he predicted this. Xu Xiuying and the silver phoenix sect wanted to devour every sect in this continent and turn men into their yang slaves. Meanwhile, Fu De was belonged to a heretic sect, hiding in the southern district of mountain goose city. Jia Shan's sect was nothing more than their eyesores.

"What about Luo Cheng? Has that stupid spy return to his master or he starts fighting yet?"

"… That shorty has returned to Xu Xiuying's side."

Jian Meng showed no respect for Luo Cheng. The dwarf wasn't popular here.

Jia Shan nodded, "What about Xie Tian? Have they found him yet? I intentionally left him in the outer disciple area, so those hyenas can fight each other to get their hands on him. What are they doing about him?"

Jian Meng hesitated. He didn't know if he should report the matter or not.

"What's wrong?"

"N-Nothing, sir! X-Xie Tian has been taken by Xu Xiuying, it seems."

"Huh?" Jia Shan was baffled, "Under the watch of Wei Huang and Fu De? Are they okay with it?"

"… I think they haven't realized it. From what I've seen, one of Xu Xiuying's subordinates found Xie Tian, but she managed to carry him out without anyone noticing. It's odd."

Jian Meng and his men didn't get a clear visual of how Xie Tian slipped through the packs of hyenas unharmed. They only saw that a female disciple carried him away with a stretcher.

However, Jia Shan grinned. He had an inspiration for how he could incite the three powerhouses to fight each other.

"Go and leak the news. Tell the Wei Clan and Fu De that Xu Xiuying has already found Xie Tian and has taken him to her sect."

Jian Meng showed a wide smile, "I see. Make them fight each other, right?"

"Correct! If they gang up on me, I'll be in trouble. But if I can fight them one at a time, none of them can last more than 10 moves!"

"An ingenious plan, senior! I shall make it happen!"

While they were conversing, Xu Xiuying, Wei Huang, and Fu De already flew in the sky and rushed toward the mountaintop. They summoned their spiritual auras and launched their attacks at the defensive barrier.

Jia Shan roared, "ACTIVATE THE NINE FISH KILLING FORMATION! LET'S CATCH SOME WEAKLING FISHES!! SHOOT THEM DOWN!!"

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

Sitting on a bed and reciting weird orc language was Xu Miao. While he was trying to memorize all 100,000 words from the orc king sutra, loud explosive shockwaves made the brothel building tremble as if there was an earthquake.

Glass windows broke. Shattered pieces flew into the room.

Xu Miao snapped back to his senses and turned toward the source of the sound. Kang Yan also woke up from her slumber and brought out a shield and a rapier, preparing for urgent combat.

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

The shockwaves kept hitting every building in the mountain goose town. Incomprehensible screaming came from the other buildings as some of the cultivators got injured from the unknown force.

Xu Miao covered his ears. His head was ringing, and dizziness overwhelmed him.

Kang Yan also did the same. Blood slowly dripped down from her ears and nostrils.

None of them knew what had happened to cause such forces, but they might die. Xu Miao rushed to Kang Yan's side and shoved a couple of healing pills into her mouth. He also didn't forget to eat some of them.

In a panic, Xu Miao grabbed Kang Yan's hand and rushed out of their room to hide in the hallway, away from all windows.

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

The impacts worsened. Xu Miao could sense flying furniture banging against the wall inside the room.

More disciples also got out of their rooms to get away from windows. None of them cared about Xu Miao's current form as they were too confused to think of anything.

*WHOOM*

After a few minutes, a semi-transparent barrier appeared around the brothel. The shockwaves couldn't get through the arrays, and everything went quiet.

*VIIIII*

[Ahem. Testing, testing. This is Long Meifang, the manager of the contribution hall. I've activated the sect's protection array. No shockwave can damage our building now. Everything is under control.]

Long Meifang announcement echoed in everybody's mind. The elder took care of everything and controlled the situation before the disciples got severely injured.

Xu Miao heaved a sigh of relief. He patted Kang Yan's shoulder and brought her back into his room.

However, the disciples already noticed the existence of a short-haired man.
