91: Chapter 91 Zhao Mo's Sky Has Collapsed

"Reporting to the Martial Success King, this was bestowed by the Martial King."

"The Martial King?"

Zhao Mo had an impression of him; it seemed to be that brat Zhao Dun. When he was first enfeoffed as the Prince of Wu Commandery and ascended the throne of the Song State, he styled himself the Martial King. In the official records of the Xuan Sect, his full title was Song Martial King Zhao Dun.

"Come, tell me in detail."

It turned out that after Zhao Dun ascended the throne, he bestowed titles upon the members of the royal clan extensively. All his brothers of the same generation were granted kingly titles starting with 'Wu' (Martial), which was why Zhao Mo had also received the title of Martial Success King.

"How is the Song State?"

Zhao Mo asked casually. Upon learning that the Song State had not been affected by the Yao Beasts and was developing well, he felt relieved.

"Why did you appear here?"

"Reporting to the Martial Success King, the northwestern border of the Song State is only a hundred li away from here. We are out training our troops while taking advantage of the beast tide."

"Very well, continue your training, but do not venture any deeper. If you happen to run into Golden Core level Yao Beasts, you will all die."

With that, he rode a cloud and departed.

Zhao Qing was dead, and there were few people in the Song State with whom Zhao Mo had deep emotional ties. Getting too involved would inevitably affect his cultivation.

"Is this the Martial Success King? The Martial Success King who developed hybrid rice and saved countless commoners of our Song State?"

"And the body tempering technique that strengthened the physique of our Song people; otherwise, how could the Song State have become the number one power in the western frontier of the Xuan Sect in just a few short years?"

"Quick, quick, return to the country and report to the Martial King that we have seen the Martial Success King."

These Imperial Guards said excitedly.

Zhao Mo had no idea what kind of influence he had on the Song State. Just by showing his face, he had helped Zhao Dun solve several thorny problems.

"This is close to the Song State, meaning it's directly west of the Xuan Sect. Did I run too far while chasing that Green Leaf Ape?"

"That's not right either. Why would people from the Iron Sword Sect appear here?"

Zhao Mo was confused.

Along the way, there wasn't a single Yao Beast left, and strangely, the Xuan Cult Cultivators were nowhere to be seen either.

"Could something major have happened?"

Zhao Mo accelerated his flight.

He soon discovered clues.

He saw white clouds everywhere in the sky, and upon them were Nascent Soul True Lords of the Xuan Sect; there must have been hundreds of them.

Below them were dense crowds of Golden Core and Foundation Establishment Cultivators, countless in number.

Opposing the Xuan Sect were the Iron Sword Sect Cultivators flying on swords.

Zhao Mo thought to himself, "With such a grand formation, this must be a decisive battle."

Strangely, both camps were completely silent, staring at the colorful streaks of light clashing in the sky.

"Are Cultivators above the Soul Transformation level fighting?"

Perhaps because Zhao Mo's cultivation was too low, he couldn't see the streaks of light in the sky clearly at all, nor could he distinguish who belonged to the Xuan Sect and who belonged to the Iron Sword Sect.

But slowly, large swathes of seven-colored light surrounded a patch of sword light, and Zhao Mo knew that the experts of the Xuan Sect had gained the upper hand.

Just when Zhao Mo thought the Xuan Sect was about to achieve a complete victory, a golden light rose, and a faint voice rang out.

"Suppress!"

"Retreat!"

With just those two words, the seven-colored light in the sky seemed to suffer a massive blow, and they all transformed into human forms and fell down.

"The Sect Master has made a move."

"Ten thousand victories!"

The Iron Sword Sect side was in an uproar, while the Xuan Sect side's morale plummeted.

"Where is the Sect Master of the Xuan Sect?"

"Why isn't the Sect Master of the Xuan Sect making a move?"

The Sect Master of the Xuan Sect and the Iron Sword Sect Master were both Half-step True Immortals. Since the Iron Sword Sect Master had already made a move, no one here was a match for him except for the Sect Master of the Xuan Sect.

No matter how many Cultivators there were, it was useless.

"Withdraw."

After waiting for a long time, the Sect Master of the Xuan Sect did not make a move. Helpless, the Xuan Sect had no choice but to withdraw from the Iron Sword Sect.

"Damn it, this beast tide was clearly planned by the Iron Sword Sect."

"It caused millions of deaths among the Human Race within our Xuan Sect's territory, and our Cultivators also suffered heavy casualties. Why didn't the Sect Master make a move?"

On the way back, Tong Weiping kept complaining to Zhao Mo.

"Since our Xuan Sect was founded, we have never been so stifled."

"What exactly is the Sect Master thinking?"

The Xuan Sect Cultivators had besieged the Iron Sword Sect, but because the Sect Master of the Xuan Sect had not made a move, their efforts fell short at the last moment.

Other than feeling the urge to kill when he first encountered the Iron Sword Sect Disciples and didn't save them, Zhao Mo didn't feel much else.

As for why the Sect Master didn't make a move, Zhao Mo reckoned that the Sect Master had his own considerations, which were not for a single Nascent Soul True Lord like him to guess.

"I'd better return to Tianfeng Valley and honestly tend to my spirit plants."

Zhao Mo took this in stride, so after returning to the Xuan Sect, he did not go when many Nascent Soul Cultivators went to the Ancestral Master Hall to pay respects to the Sect Master of the Xuan Sect.

【You have completed clearing the spirit fields, EXP +20.】

【You have completed plowing the spirit fields, EXP +20.】

Sitting by the spirit field, Zhao Mo felt his heart was finally at peace.

The recent slaughter felt like a dream, very unreal.

But the Storage Ring on his finger told Zhao Mo that it was real.

"Became a True Lord? Is your brain broken?"

Ox Martial looked at Zhao Mo.

Going out for a trip, not only had his Killing Intent increased significantly, but had his mental state also become unhealthy? Should he call Ding Xin back to take a look?

...

"What the f*ck?"

"What the hell?"

"You want to tell the Iron Sword Sect the cultivation method for the golden marrow fruit?"

"Who agreed to this? I don't agree."

Zhao Mo was shocked to hear such explosive news in Tianfeng Valley.

"Who exactly agreed to it?"

If it weren't for him, Zhao Mo, how could the Xuan Sect be able to plant golden marrow fruit? If it weren't for him, Zhao Mo, could the golden marrow fruit have a yield of eight hundred catties per mu?

What is the meaning of this now?

Using things he developed to aid the enemy?

"It was proposed by Liu Yaowen, the Peak Master of Spirit Plant Peak," Tong Weiping said helplessly and powerlessly.

"It's this old guy?"

"Is there something wrong with his head?"

"Why do this?"

You have to know that the Xuan Sect and the Iron Sword Sect had just fought; what is this supposed to mean now?

Tong Weiping set up a barrier, then cautiously said, "I heard that the Iron Sword Sect is using the half-Immortal Artifact, the Crimson Flame Divine Spear, as an exchange."

Zhao Mo said, "A half-Immortal Artifact?"

"A single half-Immortal Artifact can make two Sects that were just fighting to the death make an exchange?"

"Is it worth it?"

Tong Weiping said, "Junior Brother Zhao, you don't know this, but the Liu Clan Ancestor has been trapped in the Mahayana Realm for many years, never daring to attempt to break through the Mahayana Lightning Tribulation to achieve the status of a Half-step True Immortal."

"This Crimson Flame Divine Spear contains half of the Law of Fire, which can help him break through the Mahayana Realm."

"Before the Liu Clan Ancestor went into seclusion, he had gone to the Iron Sword Sect many times, but he could not obtain it."

"I didn't expect the Iron Sword Sect to actually agree this time."

"This is also the reason why the Sect Master of the Xuan Sect did not make a move."

Zhao Mo didn't know what to say anymore.

Although he claimed to have given the cultivation method of the golden marrow fruit to the Xuan Sect, they should have at least informed him about this kind of thing.

As a result, he learned about this from someone else; it was too much of a slap in the face.

"Although the Soul Transformation Elders argued strongly against it, the Sect Master did not hesitate at all regarding this matter."

"Why?"

Tong Weiping looked at the sky,

and whispered to Zhao Mo,

"Because the Sect Master is also surnamed Liu~"

"Holy crap~"

Zhao Mo's world collapsed.

When his cultivation was low, the Sect Master was too distant, and he hadn't paid attention to what the Sect Master's surname was.

Furthermore, the Sect Master's cultivation was too high, a Half-step True Immortal who had cultivated for who knows how many years; it was normal for his real name to be unknown.

"Should I pack up and leave the Xuan Sect right now?"

"The Sect Master won't slap me to death, right?"

Tong Weiping said, "Look at your behavior. You are at least a Nascent Soul True Lord, what is there to be afraid of?"

"Although the Sect Master comes from the Liu Clan, he is not on good terms with the Liu Clan. Back then~"

"Sect Master, I was wrong."

"Ugh, ugh~"

Halfway through his sentence, Tong Weiping suddenly foamed at the mouth, rolled his eyes, and fainted.

Zhao Mo's mind went blank. He didn't expect that a dignified Half-step True Immortal would actually eavesdrop.
