31: Chapter 31 Better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free? Coincidentally, that's what I thought too.
A few days ago!
Liuyun Sect, Soul Hall!
As the only overlord-level power within a thousand-mile radius, the Liuyun Sect's Soul Hall was usually lifeless, with only the Disciples in charge of guarding it dozing off.
However, today.
Crack—!
A crisp cracking sound was particularly ear-piercing in the silent hall.
The guarding Disciple woke up with a start, looked toward the sound, and immediately turned pale with fright, scrambling out of the hall:
"This is bad! Something terrible has happened!"
"The Third Elder... The Third Elder's Soul Lamp has shattered!!"
Liuyun Sect, Sect Main Hall.
A terrifyingly peerless pressure instantly enveloped the entire mountain peak.
Deep within the hall, a figure slowly opened his eyes.
Lightning seemed to flicker in those eyes, and the Spiritual Qi fluctuations surrounding his body far exceeded the Foundation Establishment Stage, having already condensed into tangible Spiritual Qi.
Core Formation Stage Great Cultivator—Zhao Liuyun!
"Who?"
"Who dares to kill an Elder of my Liuyun Sect?!"
Zhao Liuyun's voice was low and filled with Killing Intent, making the Disciples kneeling outside the hall tremble.
In this territory, Zhao Liuyun was the sky! The Liuyun Sect was the law!
For many years, it had always been their Liuyun Sect killing people and seizing treasures. When was it ever someone else's turn to shit on their heads?
"Re... Reporting to the Sect Master!"
A deacon reported tremblingly, "According to the last Aura location sent back by the Soul Lamp, the Third Elder fell near Qingshi Town. There... a new small School seems to have popped up."
"A new small School?"
Zhao Liuyun snorted coldly, a flicker of contempt flashing in his eyes.
"A pheasant Sect I've never even heard of dares to touch my people?"
He originally wanted to take action personally and directly crush this ant.
But on second thought, as a dignified Core Formation Old Ancestor, if he personally set out just because an Elder died, it would be too beneath him. It would make the old monsters of the neighboring powers laugh at him.
"Where is the Second Elder?" Zhao Liuyun shouted in a deep voice.
"Your subordinate is here!"
An old man wearing black robes with a sinister face flashed out.
His Aura was vigorous, having reached the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment (Eighth Level of Foundation Establishment).
It was the Second Elder of the Liuyun Sect, Han Feng.
"Han Feng, take three Early Foundation Establishment Stage Elders and pick ten Inner Sect Elites at Qi Refining Perfection, and head to Qingshi Town immediately."
A cold light flickered in Zhao Liuyun's eyes as he issued that cruel iron rule:
"Go find out who killed the Third."
"Regardless of whether that new School did it, as long as there is suspicion..."
Zhao Liuyun made a throat-slitting motion, his tone grim:
"Better to kill the innocent, than let the guilty escape!"
"If there are treasures, bring them all back. If anyone resists, slaughter the Sect! Annihilate the town!"
"Yes! I obey your command!"
Han Feng took the order, a bloodthirsty excitement flashing in his eyes.
Slaughtering Sects and annihilating towns was what he liked most.
Two hours later.
Outside Qingshi Town, Shili Slope.
Over a dozen streaks of light pierced the sky, landing aggressively on the official road.
It was the "investigation team" led by Han Feng.
"Second Elder, Qingshi Town is just ahead."
An Early Foundation Establishment Stage Elder pointed to the small mist-shrouded mountain in the distance, "That is the so-called new School. Looking at that Mountain-protecting Mist, it seems to have some tricks."
Han Feng stood with his hands behind his back, his powerful Divine Sense scanning unscrupulously.
"Hmph, just smoke and mirrors."
Han Feng sneered, "It's just a mere trick. In this remote wilderness, what kind of expert could there be?"
"Let's go!"
"Kill our way up directly!"
"Anyone who dares to touch the people of my Liuyun Sect will learn how to write the word 'death' today!"
Han Feng waved his hand and led the group toward the Hehuan Sect with surging Killing Intent.
However.
They did not know.
From the moment they stepped into the territory of Qingshi Town, they were already dead men!
Hehuan Sect, Main Hall Square.
Wang Yang was leading the "Three Beauties of Hehuan," ready to set out.
[Ding! Hostile forces detected entering the Domain!]
[Distance from core: 9.5 kilometers.]
[Enemy Lineup]:
Leader: Liuyun Sect Second Elder Han Feng (Late Stage Foundation Establishment / Eighth Level of Foundation Establishment).
Members: Early Foundation Establishment Stage x 3, Qi Refining Perfection x 10.
Intent: Slaughter the Sect to silence them, investigate the cause of Li Changfeng's death.
Looking at the red dots on the System panel, Wang Yang was slightly stunned, and then showed a disappointed expression.
"Tsk."
"After all that, only a few small fry came?"
"Just a 'suicide squad' led by a Second Elder?"
Lin Xiaowan carried the qingshuang sword on her shoulder and asked excitedly:
"Revered Master, Revered Master! Have the enemies arrived? Is there anyone I can fight?"
Wang Yang shook his head, "You're not ready yet, you can't beat them."
"But..."
Wang Yang glanced at the System panel with a point balance of "4000," then looked at the large red dot representing the "Late Stage Foundation Establishment" of Han Feng, and the smile returned to his face.
"Even a mosquito is meat, no matter how small."
"Eighth Level of Foundation Establishment... The things he's carrying should be worth quite a few points, right?"
He turned around and looked at the three eager women behind him.
Ye Qingcheng (Fifth Level of Foundation Establishment), holding the water-severing blade, her red dress like fire, her Aura as the primary wife fully unleashed.
Su Qingge (Fifth Level of Foundation Establishment), holding the flowing light zither, her green clothes like an immortal, her coldness tinged with Killing Intent.
Lin Xiaowan (Seventh Level of Qi Refining), equipped with top-tier gear, although her cultivation was the lowest, she probably couldn't beat any of the incoming enemies.
"Since the guests have arrived, let's not wait on the mountain."
Wang Yang waved his sleeve, and the Invincible Domain instantly locked onto those dozen or so people.
"Let's go!"
"Down the mountain!"
At the foot of the mountain, in front of the mountain gate.
Han Feng and his people had just landed from the clouds and hadn't even had time to shout.
They saw the mist ahead disperse automatically.
Four figures slowly walked out, as if taking a stroll in a courtyard.
The man in the lead, wearing a black brocade robe, although having no cultivation fluctuations, held a worn-out cattail leaf fan in his hand, with a punchable smile on his face that made people want to hit him.
Behind him followed three women, each beautiful in her own way.
Han Feng's eyes instantly went straight.
"This..."
The Disciples behind him were breathing heavily, their eyes almost popping out.
How could a small Sect in this remote wilderness have beauties of this level?!
"Are you the Hehuan Sect Revered Master the townspeople mentioned?"
Han Feng forced himself to regain his composure, staring coldly at Wang Yang, "Was it you who killed Li Changfeng?"
Wang Yang shook his head.
"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."
Wang Yang pointed to Su Qingge beside him, "It was clearly my Elder Su who killed him; I just handed her the blade."
"Good, good, good! It's good that you admit it!"
Han Feng laughed out of extreme anger, his Late Stage Foundation Establishment Spiritual Pressure suddenly erupting, making the surrounding trees tremble.
"Since you've admitted it, then there's nothing more to say!"
"Everyone, hear my command!"
Han Feng pointed at Wang Yang and the others:
"Chop the man into pieces and feed him to the dogs!"
"The women... capture them all alive! Bring them back to the Sect to be offered to the Sect Master as cauldrons!"
"Better to kill the innocent! Not let the guilty escape! Kill them!!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Over a dozen spiritual lights lit up simultaneously, and the Liuyun Sect Cultivators grinned as they sacrificed their Magical Artifacts, pouncing on Wang Yang and the others like a pack of hungry wolves.
In their eyes, this was not just a mission, but a carnival of dividing beauties and treasures!
However.
Facing this overwhelming attack.
Wang Yang didn't even lift a hand; he just turned his head and calmly said to the women beside him:
"Xiao Wan, learn from this."
"Qingcheng, Qingge, those three Early Foundation Establishment Stage and Qi Refining Stage ones are for you to practice on."
"As for this leading old thing..."
Wang Yang looked at the snarling Han Feng rushing at the front, smiled slightly, and revealed a row of white teeth:
"Kneel down for me!"
