Chapter 373: Massacre
“Who would’ve thought that even Gongye Yuyu would come. Hehe, it seems that this mountain treasure is indeed extraordinary.”
“Huang Nanshuang, why didn’t you stay in your Yellow Springs Bandit Clan obediently instead of coming here to join in the fun?”
“What are you saying? The Hundred Thousand Mountain is my faction. I can do whatever I want and go wherever I want. What can you do to me?”
“Not much. At most, I can make Your Yellow Springs Bandit Clan disappear completely.”
Gongye Yuyu sneered and no longer looked at the crazy woman.
“Senior sister, is that woman the head of the Yellow Springs Bandit Clan?”
“Yes, she is the woman who single-handedly created the Hundred Thousand Mountain of bandits.”
In the shadows, Nalan Lengling stared at Huang Nanshuang’s figure and continued, “There are rumors that Huang Nanshuang is actually a cultivator from the Northern Plains. However, due to certain reasons, she left the Northern Plains and came to the Hundred Thousand Mountain of the Central Plains to live in seclusion.
“However, after her beloved was killed by a disciple of a righteous sect, she became a crazy person. The reason why she established the Yellow Springs Bandit clan was said to be to take revenge on the faction that killed her beloved.”
“Which faction?”
“The Great Snow Mountain.”
Hearing this, Victor could not help but pinch his brows.
Senior Feng Jiu, Huang Nanshuang, it seemed that the people Victor met more or less had a grudge with the Great Snow Mountain. What kind of power did this Great Snow Mountain have that made so many people hate it to the bone?
However, in comparison, what Victor cared more about was… So many experts had a grudge against the Great Snow Mountain, but the latter still stood in the Northern Plains. How terrifying was the Great Snow Mountain’s strength?
Thinking of this, Victor became more and more worried about his future.
In order to save Feng Jiu, Victor would have to face the Great Snow Mountain sooner or later. With his strength, was it really enough?
Throwing away the distracting thoughts in his mind, Victor once again looked at the crowd not far away.
As there were too many high-level demonic beasts, they would hinder the snatching of the mountain treasure. Therefore, the forces present decided to temporarily join hands to finish off the beasts.
What followed was a bloody massacre.
Victor witnessed with his own eyes, the moment a sword cultivator drew his sword from his waist, the corpses of more than ten high-level demonic beasts were severed. However, Victor could not even clearly see the action of the person drawing his sword!
“The sword cultivator just now was the grand elder of the Central Plains’ Sword-playing Sect. He’s also one of the very few first-rate sects that didn’t join the Central Plains Sect Alliance.
“On his left is Lei Bao, the sect master of the Thousand Cliff Sect that is part of the Central Plains Sect Alliance. His lightning technique is superb, and his strength is formidable.
“In front of Lei Bao is the pavilion master of the Heaven Secret Pavilion of the Central Plains Sect Alliance. His soul is incredibly strong, and he can use his soul to kill people in an invisible manner.”
One by one, Nalan Lengling introduced them to Victor, and he memorized all the major figures and magnates that were in the crowd.
However, what surprised Victor was that the Central Plains Sect Alliance was a little too strong. Among the 30 experts, nearly half of them present were from the Central Plains Sect Alliance. Such an exaggerated force gave Victor a headache.
“The Central Plains Sect Alliance is so strong. Aren’t there people who want to balance it out?”
“Of course there are. However, managing such a large force is not a responsibility that any ordinary person can shoulder. In the entire Central Plains Sect Alliance, only Gongye Yuyu is capable.”
Looking at the beasts that were being slaughtered not far away, Victor remained unperturbed.
However, if this situation continued, more than half of the high-level demonic beasts in the Hundred Thousand Mountain would be wiped out. This would also bring about irreparable consequences.
Therefore, after the beasts gradually dispersed, everyone had no interest in chasing after them. Instead, they quietly waited for the birth of the mountain treasure.
At this moment, the people from the Fire Sect had arrived by riding on the wind boat.
The male leader looked around, but he did not see Nalan Lengling. He could not help but frown.
“The great elder said that Nalan Lengling would arrive one step ahead of us. Why isn’t she here now?”
“Perhaps she ran away in fear?”
“Stop joking. Even if all of you ran away, could that woman Nalan Lengling possibly take a step back? She must have met with some trouble on the way. On our way here, wasn’t there a group of people who were blocked by a small beast tide?”
“Enough with the sarcasm. Why didn’t any of you dare to speak when Nalan Lengling was present? Look at how talkative you guys are now.”
A pleasant female voice was heard, and a woman slowly descended, her eyes full of disdain.
Her name was Mu Xinxin, and she was Elder Lin’s disciple. Usually, she had a good relationship with Nalan Lengling. To be precise, Nalan Lengling only had a good relationship with her.
“Mu Xinxin, why do you always speak up for her? Haven’t you seen enough of her usual bahaviour?”
“You guys are simply hopeless.”
Mu Xinxin was not in the mood to care about the group of people in front of her. She only wanted to complete the mission issued by the sect as soon as possible and leave.
However, she could not find Nalan Lengling, which made her a little frustrated.
“Lengling, it’s me, Mu Xinxin. Haven’t you reached the Hundred Thousand Mountain yet? If you hear my voice transmission, give me a reply immediately.”
Logically speaking, Nalan Lengling would have never made such a low-level mistake. However, this time, after waiting for so long, Nalan Lengling’s figure was still nowhere to be seen.
“If my opinion, let’s just go in. With Wang Hongyu here, do we still need Nalan Lengling?”
“I think Senior Brother Zhang is right.”
“Shut up! I went out to train for three months, but your cultivation didn’t improve at all. On the contrary, this mouth of yours has become rather sharp. Nalan Lengling was able to become the second-best disciple because she works hard cultivating while you’re wasting your time.”
“Senior brother is right…”
“However, since Nalan Lengling hasn’t arrived yet, let’s not wait for her. The mountain treasure has a spirit, so it might not choose the Central Plains Sect Alliance. Perhaps, we can try our luck.”
After saying that, Wang Hongyu turned around and left with the other two.
Seeing this scene, Mu Xinxin frowned. After hesitating for a long time, she finally caught up.
Seeing that the other Fire Sect disciples had finally left, the hiding Victor and Nalan Lengling finally let out a sigh of relief.
“Senior sister, your relationship with the others isn’t the best…”
“I don’t care about that.”
Although that was the case, Victor could clearly feel some degree of disappointment in Nalan Lengling’s tone.
“It’s nothing, senior sister. They’re just a bunch of ordinary people. What do they know? Although senior sister doesn’t like to speak, it’s because senior sister expresses her words through actions. In comparison, they should be despised.”
Victor comforted Nalan Lengling’s emotions while looking at the restless crowd not far away.
The mountain treasure had been born.
