The Lingxi Gate spy’s eyes suddenly became profound:
“But when he bought things and directly bought out other people’s shops, I suddenly found him exceptionally handsome.”
Everyone’s expressions froze, and they leaned back slightly. Good heavens, just hearing about it made him incredibly dashing. Who on the Jade Tree and Zhilan List could compete with him?
“I sent you out to gather information; you didn’t just find out this much, did you?”
Mo Chaozong, the Lingxi Gate Sect Leader, stared at his Disciple, his expression displeased.
If not for the many Disciples lost in the East Sea, leaving him with few usable people, he would have wanted to dig a hole and bury this Disciple.
I told you to gather information, and you’re telling me he’s very handsome.
What good is that!
The spy shrank his neck, waking from the shock of the money, and pondered for a long time. Finally, before Mo Chaozong could explode, he added:
“Recently, Li Mo and several of his close friends seem to have encountered a Bottleneck in their Realm and are contemplating how to Breakthrough.”
“So, what methods are they using to Breakthrough the Bottleneck?”
“We don’t know yet.”
Mo Chaozong narrowed his eyes. This was indeed a somewhat valuable piece of intelligence.
He waved his hand and said:
“Go investigate again.”
“Yes.”
After the Disciple left with his orders, Mo Chaozong still frowned deeply. Last time in the East Sea, they suffered a great ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) loss due to intelligence.
Therefore, he now pays special attention to this aspect.
He not only sent people to monitor Li Mo but also dispatched many informants to Qingyuan Sect, mixed among the Jianghu people delivering congratulatory gifts.
It must be said that Qingyuan Sect has become more formidable than he had anticipated.
Shangguan Wencang, suspected of having a Law Body, the mysterious Grand Elder, and the Qingyuan Sect’s fighting king of the Fifth Realm... “Should we still make a move?”
Mo Chaozong was a bit indecisive.
Bang!
The door was suddenly pushed open again.
“Why are you back already? How many times have I told you, knock, knock, knock, you idiot!”
Mo Chaozong slammed the table.
When he saw the person at the door, his expression suddenly became wary.
It wasn’t the spy he had sent out.
“I am Luo Yexian, Hall Master of Hundred Beasts of the Huanshen Sect.” Luo Yexian walked in with his people, his expression casual.
But the atmosphere was still quite tense.
After all, dozens of burly men in black squeezed into a private room; it would be strange if it weren’t tense.
“Your Excellency, you killed so many of my Lingxi Gate Disciples and an attendant on the shores of the East Sea. Are you still not satisfied?”
Mo Chaozong did not act rashly.
Although he was in the Sixth Realm and did not fear Luo Yexian, he was wary of the Demon Summoning Sect.
The Demon Summoning Sect suffered heavy losses after the battle in Dijin, but its thousands of years of heritage were not something Lingxi Gate could compare to.
Although he said that, having suffered such a great loss, Mo Chaozong’s tone was somewhat unfriendly.
“I never killed any of your Sect’s Disciples. I killed bandits who impersonated my Huanshen Sect members. The government even issued me a commendation banner, but I didn’t go to collect it.”
Luo Yexian stood with his hands behind his back, a posture he learned from Black Earth Immortal, looking utterly relaxed and at ease.
Mo Chaozong: “...”
You wouldn’t dare to collect it.
However, what Luo Yexian said also made sense. It was the Lingxi Gate Disciples who first impersonated Demon Summoning Sect members, trying to pin the blame on the Demon Summoning Sect. It was reasonable for them to retaliate.
The Demon Summoning Sect, which usually doesn’t reason, was now reasoning. It seemed they weren’t here to cause trouble?
Indeed.
Luo Yexian gestured with his eyes, and the Sect members beside him pushed forward a person—it was the attendant elder, covered in wounds, looking disheveled, but not dead.
“Your person, we return to you.”
“Put away all your weapons.”
Mo Chaozong first signaled his Disciples, and then asked:
“You wouldn’t come without a reason. What is Your Excellency’s intention?”
“Naturally, cooperation.”
Luo Yexian had recently received instructions from the Sect Leader, and another Deputy Leader was already on the way.
“My Lingxi Gate is a righteous sect, at odds with your Sect. How dare we scheme with a tiger?”
Mo Chaozong had a righteous expression on his face but did not send them away.
“Heh, if we talk about good and evil, my Huanshen Sect was the Great Shang Dynasty’s state religion for thousands of years. Even if it was evil, it was a righteous kind of evil. Now the tables have turned, that’s all. I thought Mo Sect Leader was unconventional and not a pedantic person.”
Luo Yexian said, then stood up proactively: freewebnσvel.cѳm
“My Huanshen Sect acts with considerable certainty. If Mo Sect Leader thinks it over, we will meet at midnight tomorrow in the Fu City outskirts.”
With that, he took his people and left.
Mo Chaozong did not move or stop them, but his mind was in turmoil.
He feared that the Demon Summoning Sect wanted to use Lingxi Gate as cannon fodder.
But looking at Luo Yexian’s attitude, he seemed to have some reliance.
“Sect Master, should we go?”
The attendant beside him asked.
Mo Chaozong pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice: “Go!”
“Sect Leader, your voice sounds a bit weak. How about we just forget about it?” The attendant wiped his sweat. Cooperating with the Demon Summoning Sect was too risky.
Mo Chaozong saw that all the Disciples seemed hesitant.
He slammed his hand on the table, saying with full Origin Qi:
“Fortune favors the bold, go!!”
His voice was loud, making the room hum.
The lights in the next room came on, and a somewhat raspy female voice called out:
“Are you wailing in the middle of the night? Some of us have to work tomorrow!”
“You wretched woman, Sect Leader, I’ll go kill her!”
“Forget it, don’t lose sight of the bigger picture.”
Mo Chaozong took a deep breath. He was shrewd and calculating, unlike Qiao Ziyu, who acted rashly.
“I wonder what Luo Yexian’s reliance truly is...”
...Meanwhile, at the Li Residence in Ziyang Prefecture.
“Alright, I understand. I will assist you all when the time comes.”
Li Mo put away the Huanshen Sect divine messenger token.
Just now, Luo Yexian contacted him, saying with great respect that the Demon Summoning Sect had a major operation planned recently.
Since they weren’t absolutely confident, they wanted to invite him and the previous Sect Leader to act. The Demon Summoning Sect would do everything it could to offer sufficient compensation.
Li Mo asked what it was about.
Luo Yexian didn’t explain in the token, only saying that the major operation was near Qingyuan Sect, and he sincerely invited them to meet at midnight tomorrow in the Ziyang Prefecture Fu City outskirts to discuss details.
Hey, what a coincidence.
He was already in Ziyang Prefecture; it was just a short trip out of the Fu City.
