After Favorability Is Maxed

280 Ling Yu

Swish!

Fresh blood splattered, and a head fell to the ground.

The fallen body was caught by a hand with rough joints. On the bronze-colored strong arm, a colorful spotted snake coiled forward and opened its bloody mouth, swallowing the body in one bite.

After a series of bone-chilling chewing sounds, the huge snake’s bulging abdomen returned to its original state. Its cold beast eyes were filled with insatiable greed as it kept flicking out its tongue.

“Great, you are indeed a disciple of the number one sect in Central Plains. You have abundant spiritual Qi and have great talent.” Wu Tianzong affectionately stroked the giant snake that had wrapped itself around his body. He squinted his eyes and smiled. His square face had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he looked kind and simple.

!!

However, this kind face was stained with blood, and the words that came out of his mouth were extremely cruel. In contrast, it was even more terrifying.

“Senior Brother Ling Xi!!!”

“Those damned demonic cultivators! Return my Senior Brother!”

The few Jade Mirage Sect disciples in Daoist robes on the opposite side were so angry that their eyes almost popped out of their sockets. However, the man in front of them, who looked like a farmer man, just waved his hand and beheaded Ling Xi, who had the highest cultivation among them, and buried him in the snake’s stomach. The remaining people trembled in fear. Although they wanted to kill the enemy and take revenge, they had already lost their courage.

The enemy in front of them was like a tiger in a flock of sheep to these disciples who had just stepped into the gate of cultivation. They could only be slaughtered. It was already praiseworthy that they could still shout some slogans.

Wu Tianzong, the ‘Buddha Mouth Snake Heart’, was originally a Wisdom King Martial Monk of the Kongtong Temple. His Dharma name was ‘End’ He could not cultivate the body of the Wisdom King, and his spiritual power was extremely strong and yang. That was why he had the power to cut off Ling Xi’s head with one palm.

The Vajra Subduing Demon Spell that Liu Yuan often used was actually from the same line as Wu Tianzong.

“I’ll return him, of course!”

Wu Tianzong laughed heartily and flicked the prayer beads hanging between his thumb and index finger. His entire body glowed with a golden light, and the tattered clothes he was wearing fluttered in the air with his spiritual power.

He took a step forward and stomped on the ground with a loud bang. The spider-web-like patterns suddenly split open, and the surrounding buildings collapsed one after another, making him look like an angry Buddha.

“Hiss…” The gorgeous mottled giant snake on his shoulder opened its mouth wide and instantly spat out a ghastly white bone!

Wu Tianzong grinned, revealing his white teeth. The appearance of his open and aboveboard martial arts body suddenly had a hint of slyness.

“I still have to thank you for your hospitality, so I’ll return your Senior Brother to you!”

The rebellious monk grabbed the skeleton and pulled it out of the snake’s belly. He used his strength like a whip and broke the entire white skeleton into pieces. He then activated it with his spiritual power. With a whooshing sound, he arrived in front of the Jade Mirage Sect disciples in the blink of an eye.

“Ah!” These disciples were so scared that they fell to the ground. On one hand, they were forced by the power, but on the other hand, they were intimidated by the means of the wicked man. Seeing that their Senior Brother was being used as a ‘weapon’ to kill them after his death, they almost collapsed on the spot.

“Demons, don’t be so presumptuous!” a clear voice shouted.

The long sword suddenly flew over and blocked the white bones. Then, it went straight for Wu Tianzong’s face. The latter’s expression changed. He let out a low cry and raised his hand to block his cheek. The back of his hand was like gold and iron to block the tip of the sword, but he was still forced back a few feet by the vast spiritual power.

The Jade Mirage Sect disciples were overjoyed and shouted, “Palace Master!”

The person who had just arrived was Vast Sea Palace Master. He rolled up his long sleeves and summoned the long sword back into his hands. He looked at Wu Tianzong coldly and said, “An abandoned disciple of Kongtong Temple, how dare you be impudent?”

Wu Tianzong chuckled and stretched out his hand to calm the restless giant snake on his shoulder. “Zhi Chunqiu, we haven’t seen each other for a few hundred years, but you’re still as sanctimonious as ever.”

The Jade Mirage disciples did not realize that the two of them were old acquaintances, but when they thought about how Wu Tianzong was probably a Heaven’s Favorite of Kongtong Temple before he betrayed the sect, it was not strange.

Vast Sea Palace Master said coldly, “We haven’t seen each other for a few hundred years. You’ve almost become neither human nor ghost. A’Duru, Xu Xin Hong, come out. Aren’t you waiting for me?”

“Hehe… Vast Sea Palace Master truly lives up to his reputation. He was even able to sweep clean the corpse of his own disciple with a single sword strike. It can be seen that he is truly a person who doesn’t care about anything.” A black-haired beauty wearing a red muslin dress commonly seen in the North mansion, revealing her slender waist, walked out with a charming smile. She was barefooted, and a black scorpion tail was wagging behind her. The curved hook at the end of the tail was shining with a cold light.

It was the Scorpion Monster A’Duru, the traitor of the North Mansion Jile Sect.

“Greetings, Palace Master,” Xu Xinhong cupped his hands and said. His appearance was ordinary, but his brows and eyes were clear and relaxed, and he had a scholarly air about him. It was hard to imagine that this person was a traitor of the Jade Mirage Sect who had poisoned and killed tens of thousands of people.

The three people sent by the demonic sect this time all happened to be traitors from other sects. Perhaps they could be considered as the ‘Three Traitors’.

Vast Sea Palace Lord’s expression did not change as he said, “When Ling Xi was my disciple, I loved him and taught him everything. But when his bones were used by you demons, this white bone became a tool that aided the evil. There is no right or wrong in using a tool. You are the ones who are in the wrong. I am the one cleaning up your sins, not my disciple.”

A’Duru licked her lips and smiled. “Just by listening to the Palace Master’s words, I knew that I would not kill the wrong person today.”

Vast Sea Palace Master looked around and raised his sword. “This is your plan? You know that you can’t cause much damage to the Jade Mirage Sect in a single sneak attack, so you want to maximize the benefits and lure me here to deal with me alone?”

“Yes.” Xu Xinhong nodded and said in a gentle and refined manner, “It’s more worthwhile to kill 10,000 Jade Mirage disciples than to seriously injure the Vast Sea Palace Master.”

He looked around. Because the second level of the Jade Mirage Mountain protection formation had suddenly lost its effect, they had already entered the second level. If there were no accidents, this was the limit. The appearance of the Vast Sea Palace Master meant that the Jade Mirage Sect was finally ready to fight back.

Just because of an order from the Holy Maiden, they, who were considered elites in the demonic sect, had come to die without any regrets.

He sighed softly. To be able to personally destroy the ranking of the previous generations of Scarlet Fire Palace Masters, Xu Xinhong’s obsession in this life was gone. All that was left was an empty shell. If he died, then so be it.

When Vast Sea Palace Master heard this sigh, he was slightly stunned. An ominous feeling rose in his heart. Then, without any warning, Xu Xinhong smiled. His entire body instantly expanded and exploded. A blood-colored poisonous mist spread out in an instant. The few Jade Mirage disciples who came into contact with it first melted into a pool of blood.

Vast Sea Palace Master’s expression changed drastically and he shouted, “Retreat! Everyone, back off!”

‘Ten Thousand Maple Rivers’.

Vast Sea Palace Master activated his spiritual power and gathered the poisonous mist that had spread out in an instant. He locked it within the range of his spiritual power. However, this terrifying poison could even corrode spiritual power. His face turned pale and his fingers trembled. He could not make a decision for a moment.

If they chose to preserve their strength and leave now, choosing to seal off the second level, then the ones who would lose their lives would only be the disciples with low cultivation in the second level. After the array was restored, it would be very easy to clean up.

If he had taken action, he would have been able to control the poisonous mist at the cost of his injuries. Naturally, there would not have been any other sacrifices. However, this was the crucial moment for the Jade Mirage Sect to compete for the position of Sect Master. It had not been easy for him to finally suppress Ling Hua to this point. Vast Sea Palace Master was extremely unwilling to suffer serious injuries and lose his dignity at this time…

A figure dressed in a true disciple’s Daoist robe suddenly flew forward. “Spirit Seal!”

Her black hair fluttered in the wind as it flitted across her delicate and pretty face. She was the Fifth Junior Sister of the Danqing Hall, Ling Yu, who once had the fate of touching a furry tail with Liu Yuan.

The blood-colored poisonous fog churned and was temporarily suppressed by Ling Yu. She was clearly only of the Core Formation stage, but she had absorbed all the poisonous fog.

Ling Yu was pure and flawless, and she could ward off evil.

Vast Sea Palace Master turned around and looked at ‘Snake’ and ‘Scorpion’. His eyes were wide open, hiding a trace of joy. The sword in his hand flew out and he shouted angrily, “Die, evil demon!”
