987: I admit that I am an undercover agent in the temple
This shout, brimming with anger, could be heard clearly by everyone in the entire academy.
Du Xingchen walked out of the wooden house.
Outside the house were several teammates who had rushed over.
"Xingchen! Someone is looking for trouble with you at the school gate!" Wen Xiu Cheng spoke first.
As soon as he finished speaking, the open ground outside the house shook violently, sending gravel flying while clusters of leaves fell!
In the blink of an eye, the slovenly-looking Drunken Swordsaint stood quietly before everyone!
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~"
Wisps of water circled around this Old man, then the water gradually condensed into a stream, followed by surging waves!
The moment the thick current of water fully formed, a rich aroma of alcohol spread faster than the stench of a rotting corpse, instantly filling this small street and bringing a slight sense of dizziness to everyone!
"Grand Sage Master! He is a Grand Sage Master!" Liangcai Sword noticed the faintly shining Miracle within the opponent's Martial Soul around his body.
Possessing a Miracle, this is the mark of a Grand Sage Master!
"Xingchen, quickly leave!" Wen Xiu Cheng blocked in front, his eyes showing extreme solemnity.
"Who dares to trespass!" In the distant void, a voice exploded, and at the same time, an Instructor in a green robe appeared before everyone.
"The Instructor is here." Seeing the arrival, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The Instructor is also a Grand Sage Master level existence; looking at it this way, he should be able to resist the opponent.
However.
This thought only lasted less than ten breaths before the Instructor flew into the nearby woods, spitting blood, rolling about, his fate unknown!
He arrived shouting 'Who dares to trespass', but upon defeat, became a Clown.
"Dare to block me, then be prepared to die!" The Drunken Swordsaint said without restraint, walking towards Du Xingchen at the same time.
However.
Before he had taken many steps forward, he slowly stopped, still wearing an indifferent smile on his face.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
Beside Du Xingchen, whose gaze was calm, figures appeared one by one, carrying impressive auras!
Grand Sage Master, Grand Sage Master, Grand Sage Master, Saint Master...
Three Grand Sage Masters, five Saint Masters, and over a dozen Six-Star Soul Card Masters!
These people, apart from the forces Du Xingchen originally brought from Jiangshan City, were all temporarily requested from the Lord of Shield Citadel!
For an ordinary person, it would naturally be impossible to request so many people in Shield City without any backing.
It was still thanks to the strong individuals he brought from Jiangshan City.
As public officials of Linshan Country, they naturally had easier access to the higher-ups in Shield City and could more directly bring in so many helpers.
"Drunken Swordsaint, this is also an important wanted criminal of the Divine Hall." The Grand Sage Master from Shield City looked at the Old man in front of him with surprise.
He originally thought it was just a few small fries, but he didn't expect to directly encounter a big fish this time.
If this guy is caught and taken to the Divine Hall, it would be enough to exchange for three to five years of cultivation resources in the future!
"Let's do it." Amidst the support of many strong individuals, Du Xingchen waved his hand and said.
As his words fell, the three Grand Sage Masters and the five Saint Masters all moved out together!
The surging Martial Soul power was like a turbulent river or sea; under its overwhelming force, no one could escape!
If there were only their two Grand Sage Masters, they would definitely be unable to stop the Drunken Swordsaint.
After all, the opponent was at the Peak of the Grand Sage Master Realm!
At the Peak of the Grand Sage Master Realm, he could completely handle their two Grand Sage Masters!
But now it was different.
The Grand Sage Master invited from the City Lord's Mansion of Shield City was a Peak Grand Sage Master existence, second only to the City Lord of Shield City!
Under normal circumstances, he could fight the Drunken Swordsaint to a draw.
Now with the help of two Early Stage Grand Sage Master existences, they could achieve a seven-three advantage.
And with the addition of the other five Saint Masters harassing from the side, the battle process was almost a crushing eight-two advantage!
"So many strong individuals I've seen are at the Peak of the Grand Sage Master Realm; there are indeed quite a few top-tier powerhouses stuck below the Supreme Realm in this world." He muttered to himself, Du Xingchen didn't forget to pay attention to the surrounding situation.
He knew deeply that his safety was actually still not guaranteed.
Looking at it with normal reasoning, Eboer actually had no need to specifically inform them when he left.
After all, doing so was equivalent to reminding himself to be prepared, that he was about to act.
This was guiding him to seek help from Shield City!
Regarding this point, Eboer absolutely could not have failed to think of it!
He must have had more thoughts and actions!
The Drunken Swordsaint in front of him was not the knife meant to kill him; he was just a guy meant to tie down the forces around him!
So the knife that would ultimately strike him was...
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~"
Suddenly, gusts of damp cold wind swept past.
"Drip~ Drip~ Drip~"
One drop, two drops...
Cold raindrops fell on his skin, and the chill spread from the surface inward.
"Eboer! This guy used the Drunken Swordsaint as a cover and is acting himself!" Du Xingchen was inwardly startled and suddenly looked up!
"Bang, bang, bang~" Wen Xiu Cheng, Liangcai Sword, and the two girls were all struck heavily at this moment, their eyes rolled back, and they fainted!
As these people fell to the ground, before Du Xingchen, under the impending storm of the dark night, Eboer revealed his figure!
Leaning on a cane, he remained expressionless; against the backdrop of his simple clothes, the strong wind blew even more fiercely!
Like a tree in the wind and rain, standing calmly, yet containing the terrifying power to control the wind and rain!
"Dean, you finally made a move." Du Xingchen looked at the opponent, his vigilance reaching its Peak.
"Xingchen, blame it on you going too far. I clearly gave you a chance; all you had to do was leave the team. Now that it has evolved to this point, you brought it upon yourself." Eboer sighed, slowly shook his head, and spoke with a helpless expression as if lamenting someone who wouldn't listen to an Old man's words.
"So, my calling people from Shield City to protect me was also part of your plan?" Du Xingchen remained calm.
Eboer nodded slightly: "Don't worry, I will let the people from Shield City die here with you. At that time, Shield City will fight with Jiangshan City because you caused them to lose a Grand Sage Master."
"The City Lord of Jiangshan City will also not concede; he will definitely question Shield City. All the energy and most of the hatred will be shifted onto Shield City for its ineffective protection."
"At that time, I won't have to worry about the forces behind you causing me trouble after you die."
Eboer calmly explained all the reasons.
His indifferent posture made it seem as if he already considered Du Xingchen a dead person.
Du Xingchen was originally very nervous about this, but at a certain moment after the opponent displayed his verbose villainous trait, he suddenly relaxed.
"Don't you want to know if I am a Divine Hall spy?"
"Talking about this now?" Eboer smiled: "Are you perhaps trying to prove your innocence in front of this Old man, saying you have nothing to do with the Divine Hall?"
"Child, let it go. Just die forever with this identity of being a Divine Hall spy."
"Actually, I really am a Divine Hall spy. Moyun was right from the beginning." Du Xingchen grinned, his smile carrying a hint of mockery.
As he spoke, he glanced at the several unconscious teammates on the ground.
This answer made the smile on Eboer's face disappear.
"It seems besides offending Jiangshan City, I will also offend a Divine Hall. However, this Old man didn't kill the wrong person, and that's good." When he said this, a hint of gloom appeared in Eboer's eyes.
He now felt a bit of regret.
If he hadn't knocked out Wen Xiu Cheng and the others just now, after Du Xingchen said those words admitting guilt, he wouldn't have needed to continue acting to achieve his goal.
However, since it had already progressed to this point, the final result was the same; it was just a matter of handling the subsequent trouble!
Thinking this way, a terrifying power began to condense behind Eboer!
"I said I am a Divine Hall spy, do you think I am confessing?" Du Xingchen suddenly asked.
"Otherwise? Aren't you trying to beg for mercy with this? This Old man will not allow it."
"Is there a possibility that as a Divine Hall spy, I have backing?" Du Xingchen uttered these words with deep meaning.
