Chapter 796: Chapter 786 True Person Black Water
As he maneuvered underground, Ye Zhen anxiously calculated his next moves.
The situation faced by the Red Fire Subdivision was even more dangerous and troublesome than he had imagined.
First and foremost was the impending siege from the alliance of the three major forces in Red Fire Martial City, which Ye Zhen had already devised a plan to counter. It wasn’t too difficult.
The challenge was the subsequent joint attack by the Longevity Sect and the Heavenly Net Sect. They were not easy to deal with. The trouble was further compounded by the involvement of Yun Pochuan and Zhou Muqing seeking revenge for the incident concerning Yun Ce, who had joined forces with the Longevity Sect and possessed secret techniques capable of killing Establishment Kings.
Moreover, they were utterly consumed by revenge, nearly to the point of madness, making them unpredictable factors that could dramatically influence future events.
And that’s not all. Behind these crises lurked the Flying Tiger Hall, a bloodthirsty predator ready to strike at the faintest sniff of blood, tearing the Red Fire Subdivision to shreds.
More crucially, there was a powerful, unknown force behind Flying Tiger Hall that could deploy four Establishment Kings at any moment.
The tangled and complex situation made Ye Zhen feel as though his head would explode!
The pressure was enormous!
Following the Divine Soul communication from Xiaomao, Ye Zhen quickly reached Xiaomao’s location, which was far removed from the Brotherhood Hall of Gathering Righteousness.
Unexpectedly, by following Xiaomao’s instructions, Ye Zhen sensed the presence of Liu Qi, the Think Tank of Ruyi Pavilion, who had previously resolved the three major forces’ alliance crisis.
Finding Liu Qi in this secret dwelling wasn’t surprising; the surprise was discovering Lio Jiang, Commander of the White Tiger Guard from Flying Tiger Hall, secretly conversing with Liu Qi.
“Commander, I’ve mediated successfully and facilitated the cooperation among the three major alliances to attack the Red Fire Subdivision,” said Liu Qi.
“Is it only an agreement of intention for cooperation? When is the attack scheduled? The Three Great Alliances are just a group of fickle clowns; if it takes too long, some might change their minds!” Lio Jiang kept his voice low. More than twenty Flying Tiger Hall Martial Artists stood guard outside the shadows of the dwelling, showing his deep regard for Liu Qi, the mole.
Inside, Liu Qi smiled slightly upon hearing this, “Commander, I’ve long considered this, hence I’ve emphasized that the longer the discussions, the higher the risk of leaks, so I’ve vigorously set the attack time for midnight tomorrow night!
One day shouldn’t bring major changes!”
Lio Jiang nodded in satisfaction, “Indeed, within a short time, unexpected changes are unlikely! Since they’re planning to launch the attack tomorrow night, Flying Tiger Hall should make the necessary arrangements.
Liu Qi, if Flying Tiger Hall can solely dominate Red Fire Martial City this time, your contribution will be first among many. The Hall Master won’t let your reward be insignificant. If successful, several new Tiger Guards will definitely be established, and with your meritorious deeds, a commander position will be assured!”
Liu Qi was overjoyed upon hearing this, “Thank you, Commander, for nurturing me. I’ll never forget your kindness!”
“The mission isn’t complete yet, so be wary; hurry back to avoid arousing any suspicion. I’ll send Tiger Guards to clear your path on the way!” Lio Jiang advised.
“Understood!”
Liu Qi bowed and quietly departed, soon blending into the night.
Underground, Ye Zhen furrowed his brows even more tightly, confirming that Flying Tiger Hall was indeed behind the scheme against the Red Fire Subdivision orchestrated by the Three Great Alliances, and it was already underway.
With the assault scheduled for midnight tomorrow night, Ye Zhen had barely any time to prepare. He needed to react swiftly.
“Since they’re indeed wary of my so-called mysterious Lecturer behind me, perhaps I should let my mentor make an appearance….”
Murmuring softly, Ye Zhen swiftly entered a vacant dwelling, grabbed the descending Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten, tossing it into his embrace, and began arranging various bottles and jars.
Ye Zhen had never abandoned his skill in Disguise, truthfully missing and appreciating the True Transformation Technique taught by Liu Datong, the Chief Constable of Black Water Empire’s Ministry of Justice.
In Jianghu, various Disguise Skills emerged, but few compared in sheer mastery to Liu Datong’s True Transformation Technique.
Within less than a hundred breaths, an elder with a blue robe, yellow complexion, and white beard appeared in the abandoned dwelling.
With a stomp, he vanished into the ground in an instant.
An hour later, Ye Zhen’s figure appeared at the headquarters of Sky Horse Gang outside the city. Despite it being deep into the night, talisman communications crisscrossed the sky above, indicating heavy activity.
Gang Leader Xu Yueshan of Sky Horse Gang had yet to rest, still vexed about being left with leftovers, cursing loudly, rendering the senior members silent as if intimidated.
Only after another hour did Gang Leader Xu Yueshan calm down from his outburst, casually issuing several commands before heading to his private chambers in the Main Hall to rest.
However, Xu Yueshan’s way of resting left Ye Zhen in shock; instead of sleeping or cultivating, he had two eighteen-year-old beautiful girls brought in by his subordinates. With a lewd laugh, he stripped off his clothes and began venting his wrath upon the two girls.
Judging by the situation, it wasn’t going to end anytime soon. Time was of the essence; Ye Zhen couldn’t afford to wait. The leaders of Five Immortals Hall and Brotherhood were waiting for him to deal with them; there was scant time to squander here.
Seizing an opportunity, Ye Zhen silently emerged from the underground, appearing behind Xu Yueshan, the Grand Leader of the Sky Horse Gang, who was as restless as a white sheep.
As Xu Yueshan noticed something amiss and abruptly turned around, Ye Zhen’s Flying Frost Sword had already silently settled on his neck. Before he could exclaim, the sword light flashed, and Xu Yueshan’s head flew off.
The spurting blood provoked startling screams from the two young girls being ravaged, who, out of fear, didn’t even think to cover their exposed bodies.
In the end, Ye Zhen did not harm the innocent girls, releasing two Spirit Lights to knock them unconscious.
Like many gang leaders, Xu Yueshan of the Sky Horse Gang was extremely afraid of death and assassination, so his private residence had very strong security forces. While he rested, two Vein Forging Realm Martial Artists guarded him.
Similarly, upon entering the bedroom, he activated the Guardian Talisman Light, though it paled in comparison to Jing Cong’s Guardian Talisman Light, as it did not block sound well.
Thus, when Xu Yueshan was killed, the screams of the girls were audible outside.
“Bastard, what are you doing?” One of the trusted aides guarding the door wanted to open it after hearing the girls’ screams but was stopped by another aide.
“Didn’t you hear the screams?”
“Nonsense, of course I heard! But there haven’t been few times that women’s screams come from the leader’s room?”
“No, this time the screams sound different than usual!”
“Bah, what’s different? You know the leader’s tastes! He’s in a bad mood today, if you want trouble, go ahead!” The other aide simply ignored it.
Seeing this, the aide who felt something was wrong shrank back and didn’t push open the door.
“Dare to plot against my beloved disciple, I shall take your head, message from True Person Black Water!”
After contemplating for a moment, Ye Zhen used Xu Yueshan’s fresh blood to leave this message, then casually stripped off Xu Yueshan’s storage ring, paused, and instantly disappeared.
In the moment of entering the earth, Ye Zhen rushed directly towards the Main Hall of Five Immortals Hall at maximum speed.
To disrupt the cooperation of the Three Great Alliances, it was crucial to throw them into chaos, and the best way to achieve this was to kill their most respected leaders.
Five Immortals Hall wasn’t too far from the Sky Horse Gang, less than three hundred miles away, which was likely one of the reasons they became enemies, too close.
The defense of Five Immortals Hall was also quite rigorous, but for Ye Zhen with the Earth Escape Skill, it was practically a decoration.
However, Manchen, the Grand Leader of Five Immortals Hall, was evidently a self-disciplined person. When Ye Zhen arrived, he was already sitting cross-legged and cultivating, and he was more cautious. Besides the Guardian Talisman and guards outside, a Vein Forging Realm Martial Artist with a cultivation as high as the Sixth Stage was also seated on the rafters inside the room to coordinate with Manchen, ready to attack any intruder from front and back.
Clearly, Manchen had endured assassination attempts before!
Yet, this setup is very effective against common assassins, but for a top-level assassin like Ye Zhen, it was useless.
Other assassins would need to consider their escape route after completing the assassination, but Ye Zhen didn’t need to worry about such matters at all.
Thus, in the next moment, Ye Zhen appeared effortlessly from the ground, standing before Manchen, sitting cross-legged before the bed.
Almost as soon as Ye Zhen appeared, both Manchen, the Grand Leader of Five Immortals Hall, and the Vein Forging Realm Martial Artist seated on the rafters simultaneously opened their eyes.
And at that same instant, Ye Zhen’s barely open eyes suddenly widened, and a three-colored Soul Refining Divine Light blasted straight toward Manchen.
As for the Vein Forging Realm Martial Artist of the Sixth Stage on the rafters, Ye Zhen didn’t bother to look, as he didn’t need to.
At the moment the three-colored Soul Refining Divine Light blasted out, a black-white light shot from Ye Zhen’s bosom, faster than the three-colored Soul Refining Divine Light, heading straight for the rafters.
Four or five meters were way too short for Xiaomao, almost at the moment Xiaomao leapt, it was already there, the person didn’t even have time to scream as his head was smashed by Xiaomao like a crashed watermelon!
The cultivation of Manchen, who reached the Seventh Stage of Vein Forging Realm, was already wide-eyed and somewhat dazed!
Within five meters, under Ye Zhen’s Soul Refining Divine Light strike, he had no choice but to endure, with no other possibility.
The sizzling sound of burning echoed, and the spot hit by the Soul Refining Divine Light immediately turned to charcoal. Still, the most crucial thing was the blast from the three-colored Innate Soul Light contained within the Soul Refining Divine Light.
With a muffled groan, blood flowed simultaneously from Manchen’s seven orifices.
At the same time, the vast Divine Soul Power fluctuations inside the room and Manchen’s agonizing groan alerted the guards outside, a shrill alarm instantly resounded throughout Five Immortals Hall!
