45: Wei Donghai

At the foot of Divine Sword Sect mountain.

Li Changfeng decided to take his disciples to the Immortal Sect Tournament.

The group headed straight for Pingliang.

"Master, it's quite a long journey!" Nan Qingyue frowned.

"Are we really going to walk there?" Chen Anan sighed.

It was tens of thousands of miles away.

If they had cultivation, it would be fine.

But for a mortal, walking there on foot...

Two months might not even be enough!

"Who said we were walking?" Li Changfeng shook his head helplessly.

Such a long distance, even for cultivators.

If they really walked, they'd be exhausted to death.

If they traveled by sword, they wouldn't even need to compete once they reached Pingliang.

Their spiritual energy would be completely depleted, so they might as well just surrender.

"Then how do we go?" Chen Anan asked curiously.

"We'll go to Yizhou and take a beast-boat," Li Changfeng said with a slight smirk.

"Good idea!" Situ Jiu nodded vigorously.

This way, they wouldn't have to walk.

"Someone! Prepare the horses for Yizhou!" Li Changfeng waved his large sleeve.

After these words.

Li Changfeng stepped out, leaving the room directly.

"Yes, Master!"

"Yes, Young Sect Leader!"

Nan Qingyue, Chen Anan, Situ Jiu, Zhang Qing, and Nie Mingjue followed closely behind.

On the small mountain path.

With Li Changfeng leading, a horse and carriage sped off.

Situ Jiu drove the carriage, holding the reins tightly.

It was still three hundred li from Divine Sword Sect to Yizhou.

And from Yizhou, taking a beast-boat to Jinling was still a very long journey!

"Master, are the five of us really the only ones participating in the Immortal Sect Tournament?" Situ Jiu asked with some worry.

"That's right," Li Changfeng nodded.

But after hearing this.

A hint of disappointment flashed in Situ Jiu's eyes.

"What's wrong? Situ Jiu, do you have something to say!" Nan Qingyue was displeased.

"Nothing, I just feel that it will be a bit difficult to win the top spot this year!" Situ Jiu sighed.

When Li Changfeng heard this, he immediately became interested.

"Tell me more!"

"Pingliang Mulan Prefecture goes without saying; their eight High Immortals are the number one sect in the world."

"The disciples participating in this Immortal Sect Tournament are all direct disciples of High Immortals, and their strength should not be underestimated."

"Although Yaowang Valley is a family of medicine, it is after all the second-ranked sect in the world. They possess family secret techniques, so they are naturally strong opponents."

Last year, the disciples from these two sects who participated in the Immortal Sect Tournament had already broken through to the Fifth Rank.

And this year, their strength will likely increase again!

"It's just Mulan Manor; Yaowang Valley won't be our opponent," Li Changfeng smiled.

If Yao Ying could ally with Divine Sword Sect for the Immortal Sect Tournament.

Then Yaowang Valley would not target Divine Sword Sect in the Immortal Sect Tournament.

"Gee up!" A cold light burst from Situ Jiu's eyes.

A figure appeared on the small path.

That person was dressed in a black robe, completely shrouded in it.

They couldn't be seen clearly at all.

"Sect Leader! There's someone ahead!" Situ Jiu reined in the horses.

"Whoa!"

Situ Jiu looked alert, drawing his long sword.

This person was unfathomable.

He even felt a familiar sensation from them.

But who was this person!

"Don't any of you come out!" Li Changfeng said with a dark expression, "I'll go out and see."

"Master!" Nan Qingyue felt uneasy.

"Who is it?"

"Who would block our way?"

Chen Anan and Nie Mingjue were even more puzzled.

At this point, they hadn't even left Divine Sword Sect's territory.

Who would block Divine Sword Sect's convoy here?

"Situ Jiu, how have things been on the mountain recently?" The person under the black robe asked with a dark expression.

A cold light burst from Situ Jiu's eyes.

His heart trembled, greatly surprised.

"Is that...?"

"Sect Leader Wei?"

Situ Jiu was stunned; he only felt a chill down his spine.

The black-robed man sneered, lightly tapping his toe, and instantly appeared in front of Situ Jiu.

"You don't kneel when you see the Sect Leader?"

"You truly deserve to die!" Wei Donghai raised his hand and slapped him.

He savagely slapped Situ Jiu across the face.

Slap!

With a crisp sound.

A bright red handprint was left on Situ Jiu's face.

This slap.

Made Situ Jiu dizzy and disoriented.

He fell heavily to the ground.

"Sect Leader!" Situ Jiu exclaimed.

Li Changfeng stepped out of the carriage, just in time to see this scene.

"You are the Young Sect Leader of Divine Sword Sect?" Wei Donghai asked with a dark expression.

His gaze narrowed, staring intently at Li Changfeng.

It was this guy!

He killed the Grand Elder and took everything from Divine Sword Sect!

"Who are you?" Li Changfeng said coldly.

Situ Jiu, still on the ground, quickly shouted, "He is Wei Donghai! The Sect Leader of Divine Sword Sect!"

"Wei Laogou? You are Wei Laogou!" Li Changfeng's expression turned ferocious.

Upon hearing this.

Wei Donghai's face grew even uglier!

He was being called an old dog to his face?

Who could endure such an insult!

"Divine Sword Sect's Sect Leader, Wei Donghai!" Wei Donghai held his head high, his face grim.

"Good, I was looking for you, but I didn't expect you to deliver yourself right to my doorstep!" Li Changfeng sneered.

Buzz buzz.

With a dull sound.

Li Changfeng drew his Nine Songs Sword.

"Kid, I know you are Baiyi Luo's disciple," Wei Donghai suddenly said.

"I admit, I failed Baiyi Luo!"

"But, you won't take my life!"

"I'm here to stop you today for one thing. Give up on this Immortal Sect Tournament, otherwise, you will all die!"

Wei Donghai clenched his fists tightly.

A few days ago, he went to Pingliang Mulan Prefecture.

That Sect Master had said, "As long as Divine Sword Sect gives up on the Immortal Sect Tournament, they will not act against Divine Sword Sect in the future."

"I can't kill you?" Li Changfeng's eyes were red.

His master was harmed by this scoundrel back then!

How dare Wei Laogou say such a thing today?

He was practically asking for trouble.

Li Changfeng raised his hand, pointing it at Wei Donghai.

"Come here!"

Boom.

With a burst of powerful energy.

Wei Donghai's pupils constricted sharply; he couldn't even control his body.

Suddenly, Wei Donghai appeared before Li Changfeng, and his neck was being squeezed tightly.

"This is...? Immortal power!" Wei Donghai was terrified.

"Baiyi Luo gave you all her power before she died?"

"How is this possible!"

Li Changfeng's face was grim, showing a serious expression.

He squeezed Wei Donghai's neck tightly.

"You said I couldn't kill you?"

"Do you believe me now, that I can directly snap your neck?"

Li Changfeng was filled with killing intent; he had already decided to kill.

"Alright, you little brat certainly inherited Baiyi Luo's legacy! You can kill me, but there's one thing I hope you can do." Wei Donghai's expression was serious.

Seeing his earnest look, he didn't seem to be speaking nonsense.

"Speak quickly," Li Changfeng snorted coldly.

"Take Divine Sword Sect's disciples and go back quickly! Give up on the Immortal Sect Tournament!" Wei Donghai said faintly.

"Why?" Li Changfeng asked, puzzled.

"Pingliang Mulan Prefecture has already taken action against the major families. The Jiang Family of Jinling is an example; now, whoever participates in the Immortal Sect Tournament will die!" Wei Donghai revealed this news.
