Chapter 512: Deal

Luo Shan would never have imagined that the situation would actually be like this! Why had this youth suddenly turn so ferocious?

Xia Kunqian had been waiting to one side for a while. The instant that Luo Shan’s spirit appeared sluggish, he immediately attacked, killing Luo Shan in one blow.

After killing Luo Shan, Mo Wen and Xia Kunqian walked out of the Snow Storm Stratagem. Mo Wen’s soul power was still limited. It was impossible for them to keep on killing. In addition, they had almost killed half of the Sacred Flame Sect elders in the Snow Storm Stratagem. The pressure within the stratagem’s inner circle was immediately greatly reduced.

“Little friend Mo Wen, I have never felt so comfortable. The kills we made were so satisfying.” Once Xia Kunqian walked out of the Snow Storm Stratagem, he started laughing out loud. To be able to kill the Sacred Flame Sect elders consecutively was practically an impossible feat. The Intentionless Sect had been suppressed by the Sacred Flame Sect for half a month. Finally, they could vent out their frustrations.

“We killed so many Sacred Flame Sect elders. The Sacred Flame Sect will most probably not stop at this.” Mo Wen said this plainly. They had consecutively killed five Sacred Flame Sect elders. That was no small matter. Once the Sacred Flame Sect sect leader knew about it, no one knew what results would be triggered.

Upon hearing this, Xia Kunqian also frowned. Before this, he was enjoying the killings; he had not considered anything else. Right now, in retrospect, it was indeed a hidden danger. Although they had killed five elders of the Sacred Flame Sect, causing the pressure on the Intentionless Sect to be greatly reduced, when comparing the balance of power, the Intentionless Sect was still at a disadvantage.

Also, what he was most afraid of was that this incident would give an insight to the Sacred Flame Sect sect leader. It could cause him to change his battle strategy at the last minute.

The two of them returned to the Mindfulness Hall. Chen Zikuang was exercising his powers to heal himself. Before this, Mo Wen had given him a Cyan Spiritual Pill. With the help of the spiritual pill, his injuries this time around had already recovered around seventy to eighty percent.

Seeing Mo Wen and Xia Kunqian return, Chen Zikuang also opened his eyes. “What was the result?” Chen Zikuang asked.

“This time around, we killed five Sacred Flame Sect elders,” Xia Kunqian said.

“What! So many?” Chen Zikuang was shocked.

Xia Kunqian nodded his head. Losing five elders at once, the Sacred Flame Sect would most likely be coughing up blood.

Chen Zikuang was astonished beyond compare. He originally thought that the two of them being able to kill one or two Golden Elixir realm elders would be a good result. Consecutively killing five was something he had never imagined.

From the looks of it now, he had still slightly underestimated Mo Wen’s ability.

“Immediately enter level one alert state.” At the same time, Chen Zikuang secretly thought that things weren’t looking good. Killing one or two probably would not be anything. Killing five consecutively would surely trigger a fierce retaliation from the Sacred Flame Sect.

“Deputy Sect leader, do you also believe that the Sacred Flame Sect will not stop at this?” Xia Kunqian said as he frowned.

“It will be far worse than not stopping at this.” Chen Zikuang laughed bitterly and said, “Before this, the Sacred Flame Sect already had two dead elders as well as a missing sect protecting spiritual weapon. They surely would have been on alert. Now that another five died consecutively, how could it not cause Zhu Lanhuo to be suspicious?”

When accidents happened one after another, anyone could have guessed that there was certainly something amiss.

...

That night, the house occupied by the Sacred Flame Sect in the outer city of Intentionless City was abuzz.

“What! Five elders disappeared all at once?” Zhu Lanhuo stood up from his chair. His eyes were wide open and his voice shook the house, causing it to constantly tremble.

“Reporting to the sect leader, when we were counting our casualties at night, five elders had yet to return.” A man dressed in black from the intelligence department reported respectfully as he half-kneeled on the ground.

“How can this be possible!” Zhu Lanhuo clenched his fist. He did not believe that the five elders had died in the Snow Storm Stratagem. If the Intentionless Sect had the ability to do so, they most likely would have shown it already and not have waited until now to do so.

“Could it be that the Intentionless Sect used some sort of scheme to trap the five elders?” Li Zhuoying asked in an attempt at comforting those who were worried. “Five Golden Elixir realm elders could not possibly be so easily killed. Even Chen Wuhui at his prime could not do such a thing.”

Although intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners could kill beginning stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners, if the beginning stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner focused only on escaping, the chances of them escaping were very high. For five elders to die consecutively, with none of them returning alive was almost impossible. The Intentionless Sect did not have the ability to do so at all.

“If the Intentionless Sect had such methods, they would have used them long ago. There must have been some change,” Zhu Lanhuo said with an ugly expression.

“You shouldn’t think too pessimistically. Maybe the five elders could not make it back on time due to some other reason.” Li Zhuoying still did not believe that the current Intentionless Sect could kill five Sacred Flame Sect elders. Even he could not do so.

“Tomorrow, we will go for an all-out attack. Both you and I will attack together. That brat Chen Zikuang was just injured yesterday. While his injuries have yet to recover, we will injure him again. As this accumulates, we can then kill him off.” Zhu Lanhuo coldly snorted. His plan was very simple. Every day they would injure Chen Zikuang bit by bit. Under the circumstances where he was getting more and more injured, this person would then no longer pose much of a threat.

A brat of the beginning stage Golden Elixir realm thinking that they could fight Zhu Lanhuo with just a few treasures was practically a joke.

The next day, almost the entire Sacred Flame Sect was mobilized, attacking the Intentionless Sect with full force. Since the beginning of the battle, this was the second time the Sacred Flame Sect had fought so desperately.

What Chen Zikuang said was true. Losing five elders must have triggered the abnormal behavior of the Sacred Flame Sect. Zhu Lanhuo, who had been on alert, most likely had become more and more impatient.

After a night of recovery, Mo Wen had managed to regain a large portion of his soul power. The recovery of soul power was far harder than Inner Qi. Soul power as enormous as Mo Wen’s would likely need a few days and nights to return to its pinnacle.

On the second day of the battle, Mo Wen and Xia Kunqian once again appeared in the Snow Storm Stratagem. Their goal was once again to hunt Sacred Flame Sect elders.

After yesterday’s five-kill streak, Chen Zikuang instead asked them to work harder. It was because this time, both parties could not afford to drag it out. Their wisest choice was to weaken the Sacred Flame Sect’s power as much as possible.

With Mo Wen and Xia Kunqian cooperating for the second time, they did not manage to kill five. They only killed three Sacred Flame Sect elders. It was because Mo Wen’s soul power had not completely recovered. Killing three consecutively was already at the limit of his ability. However, killing three was still significant for the Intentionless Sect. After Mo Wen had arrived, the Sacred Flame Sect had lost ten elders. Even for the Sacred Flame Sect, this was a frightening loss.

In terms of the upper echelon power, aside from the difference in intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners, when comparing normal elders, the Sacred Flame Sect and Intentionless Sect were almost equal.

Luckily the Snow Storm Stratagem acted as a barrier, so the death of one or two Sacred Flame Sect elders could not be detected in time. Otherwise, it would not be possible for Mo Wen to be so successful.

However, under the all-out attack of the Sacred Flame Sect, the Intentionless Sect was not without losses as well. Not only was Chen Zikuang injured again and his injuries were not light, but another Intentionless Sect elder also died on the battlefield. This time, both of the Sacred Flame Sect’s two intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm sect leaders had joined the fight. An Intentionless Sect elder had died at the hands of the Sacred Flame Sect deputy sect leader Li Zhuoying when assisting Chen Zikuang in fighting against them.

“Mo Wen...” In the Mindfulness Hall, Chen Zikuang’s gaze turned to Mo Wen. He had a somewhat pitiful look in his eyes.

Last time, after he consumed Mo Wen’s Cyan Spiritual Pill, he started to long for Mo Wen’s spiritual pills. Although the effects of the Cyan Spiritual Pills were far inferior to the Heart Nourishing Pills, for treating internal injuries, it was a first grade spiritual pill.

Although he had a Heart Nourishing Pill, he was reluctant to use it.

“Deputy Sect Leader Chen, you also know that concocting pills is not easy. I don’t have that many Cyan Spiritual Pills left on me.” Mo Wen drank a sip of tea and was preparing to lecture him. Chen Zikuang directly interrupted his words, “Three spiritual stones, non-negotiable.”

“Five!” Mo Wen immediately said.

“Deal.” Although Chen Zikuang felt a sting inside, he also knew if he did not agree to five spiritual stones now, he would most probably not be able to buy the pill for five later. This was the dominance of a monopoly.

“Deputy Sect Leader Chen, the eighty spiritual stones you owe me, when are you preparing to give them to me?” Mo Wen asked.

In two days, eight Sacred Flame Sect elders had died at his hands, but Chen Zikuang had yet to fulfill his promise.

“Not yet. If the Intentionless Sect can make it through this crisis, we will pay it in full.”

Chen Zikuang laughed bitterly. The Intentionless Sect already had a shortage of spiritual stones. The Snow Storm Stratagem had been operational for more than half a month. Its consumption of spiritual stones was too terrifying. Before this, he had given Mo Wen eighty spiritual stones. If he gave him another eighty, it would most likely be difficult to maintain the Snow Storm Stratagem.

Right now, the Intentionless Sect had to last for four days, otherwise all their efforts would be wasted.

“Never mind, seeing that the Intentionless Sect and I have had some dealings, it can wait. However, later you must give them all to me, not one stone less.” Mo Wen sighed. It turned out that the Intentionless Sect was not as wealthy as he imagined. It wasn’t even two hundred spiritual stones and they actually needed credit.

However, rumor had it that the Sacred Flame Sect was far wealthier than the Intentionless Sect. God knows how many things were owned by the sect. Mo Wen changed his mind and set his sights on the Sacred Flame Sect. These Inner world ancient martial art practitioner sects were practically oozing with riches. Every day, they were ruining spiritual stones and spiritual medicines. It made his heart ache. If he could not gather up and “protect” all of these spiritual stones and spiritual medicines, that would be a sad thing.

The Immortal Cultivation world from his previous life had some ordinary immortal cultivators who were most likely not as wealthy as these ancient martial art practitioners. Not every immortal cultivator had a magical treasure or spiritual stones to maintain a stratagem in operation.

When he thought about it, Mo Wen believed that the Huatian Palace was treating these ancient martial arts sects well. At least, it let them master a few immortal cultivator resources and did not completely oppress them.

If Chen Zikuang knew what Mo Wen was thinking, he would have wanted to spit in Mo Wen’s face. Only two hundred spiritual stones! He had the nerve to say so. Before this, when Mo Wen had no spiritual stones, half a spiritual stone was treated as a treasure. Now that he had so many, he actually was not satisfied. He actually thought two hundred spiritual stones was too few! Sects like the Jianyou Sect would not necessarily be able to amass so many spiritual stones even if they had five years to do so.

Night fell and the day’s battle came to an end. The house in which the Sacred Flame Sect dwelled in had an unprecedented heavy atmosphere.
