"I suppose you know how ruthless and cruel the Five Poison Sect is. If you go back... will you really have a good outco?" Lu Ye said calmly.
Hearing this, Elder Zhang, who was at the Third Layer of the Grandmaster Realm, forced a bitter smile.
The power of the Five Poison Sect is known only to those who have left the sect.
Only then can they truly realize how vast its influence has beco.
Could soone like him, a re Third Layer Grandmaster, truly escape the pursuit of the Five Poison Sect?
However, in the face of life and death, Elder Zhang’s heart ignited a longing for life because of Lu Ye’s words.
"Thank you, Senior, for the guidance, and for sparing my life. This Storage Ring contains my savings, and I offer it to you as a gift."
Without any hesitation, Elder Zhang removed the Storage Ring from his hand, tossed it to Lu Ye, turned smartly, and swiftly fled Yinmang Mountain.
Rather than returning to face torture, it was better to escape; at least there was a sliver of hope for survival.
anwhile, the spies around them observed Lu Ye not only vanquishing the Five Poison Sect Leader’s avatar and slaying the Young Master of the Five Poison Sect...
but also attempting to incite the defection of a Grandmaster from the Five Poison Sect!
This left those around them feeling numb; he had completely offended the Five Poison Sect!
As for the Red Cloud Fairy, her gaze was filled with complex emotions.
She couldn’t deny it, his thods... were quite to her liking.
From the mont he took action against the Five Poison Sect, he had already made himself an eternal enemy, given the sect’s nature.
Anyone else might have been swayed by the Sect Leader’s words... and eventually, when the opportunity arose, it could have been their downfall.
Yet, he not only vanquished the Young Master but also, in broad daylight, used words to incite a Grandmaster of the Five Poison Sect to defect and escape the sect.
This was undoubtedly a blow to the prestige of the Five Poison Sect.
Such strength, such thods.
He... is simply the chosen Vice Sect Leader of the Red Cloud Sect!
The Red Cloud Fairy had never experienced matters of the heart, but she suddenly understood the sentint of unattainable love...
Perhaps it’s not much different from her current predicant.
...
On the mountaintop, he proficiently rifled through the body of the Young Master of the Five Poison Sect and then scattered so Bone-Dissolving Powder.
Lu Ye did not rush to check the contents of the three Storage Rings, but instead surveyed his surroundings.
He paused for a mont in a particular direction, revealing a mysterious smile at the corner of his mouth.
A mont later, he vanished from Yinmang Peak.
Simultaneously, within the miasma and poisonous fog of the Five Poison Sect Headquarters, a man in a black robe was seething with intense rage.
Several Elder Grandmasters who had rushed over didn’t dare to speak much.
Although they didn’t know what had happened, it was clear the Sect Leader was about to erupt.
A mont later, the cold voice of the Five Poison Sect Leader rang out: "Just recently... my son was slain at Yinmang Mountain."
Instantly, the Elders were shocked, finally understanding what had transpired.
"Who is audacious enough to dare such an act? To even slay the Young Master of the Five Poison Sect?"
"Sect Leader, you must capture this person and subject them to the harshest torture!"
The Elders generally looked down on the average-talented Young Master, but now they appeared as angry as if it were their own son who had died.
After all, voicing their stance didn’t cost anything, but not doing so would certainly be noted.
"I have already sent soone to investigate. This person who killed my son will not roam free under my watch," the Five Poison Sect Leader stated, with a tangible aura of killing intent radiating from him.
...
At the sa ti, news of the Young Master of the Five Poison Sect being slain at Yinmang Mountain, and even the inviability of his avatar by the Sect Leader could not save him, started spreading like a landslide across the Northern Territory!
The entire Northern Territory was shaken by this news.
Unlike the earlier slaying of Elder Yinmang or even a Fifth Layer Grandmaster, this news...
was enough to change the entire landscape of the Northern Territory!
Even those ancient beings who had lived for centuries and typically ignored worldly affairs were stirred from their ditation.
"Who is so bold? The Five Poison Sect Leader... his strength is perhaps on par with that old monster from the Myriad Laws Sect!"
"I have been out of seclusion for rely thirty years, and this world... has beco sowhat unfamiliar, the Five Poison Sect... such an old na."
"If this person can evade the Five Poison Sect’s pursuit, I am indeed interested in eting them, hahaha..."
Rumors spread throughout the Northern Territory, and many forces were strengthening their defenses.
If this giant beast called the Five Poison Sect went on a rampage... it would be a significant headache for them.
...
At the top of Yinmang Mountain, watching the mysterious Grandmaster leave quietly, the Red Cloud Fairy hidden among the trees felt a sense of inexplicable loss rising within her.
"If I hadn’t concealed my presence and ca, would he have noticed ?"
She was tempted to take out the Communication Jade Token to ask why he was so bold to actually kill an important figure of the Five Poison Sect.
But after thinking it over, the Red Cloud Fairy felt a surge of anger.
Forget it!
She would rather face a powerful adversary like the Five Poison Sect than give in, for what was lacking in her Red Cloud Sect?
If there was going to be communication, it should be initiated by him.
After all, it would take her lead to enter the Red Cloud Sect and access the Sect Secret Realm as promised.
"Even if you send a ssage, I’ll keep you waiting!"
A prompt response? Not happening.
With her mind made up, the Red Cloud Fairy was about to leave Yinmang Mountain.
Incredibly, the Communication Jade Token in her Storage Ring signaled an incoming ssage, lighting up with a faint glow.
[I know you’re at Yinmang Mountain. I’m waiting for you in the bamboo forest a hundred miles east.]
A simple ssage, indeed, from the one she suspected.
About to respond, Red Cloud Fairy suddenly rembered...
She had just decided to keep him waiting, not to respond imdiately...
"..."
"Forget it, I am magnanimous, why stay mad at him? His current reluctance to join the Red Cloud doesn’t an he won’t in the future..."
Comforting herself a bit, the Red Cloud Fairy imdiately replied.
[Alright! Wait for there, I’m on my way.]
...
In a verdant bamboo forest, there was an open space with a stone table, of unknown origin.
When the Red Cloud Fairy arrived without a mont’s pause, she imdiately locked eyes with a man in black sitting by the stone table.
His deanor appeared leisurely, completely unaware of what earth-shattering feats he had perford recently that could shake the entire Northern Territory!
"You still have the leisure to sit here and admire the bamboo!"
Descending lightly, the Red Cloud Fairy, for once, had a slightly heavy tone.
"Do you know what major event you’ve done!"
In response, Lu Ye nonchalantly knocked on the stone table as he said, "Wasn’t it a request from you? I rely followed through."
Red Cloud Fairy: "..."
She had only made the request in passing after being repeatedly declined... who would have thought soone could really carry it out!
"I asked you to kill the Young Master Saint Son, and you did..."
"But when I invited you to join the Red Cloud... you refused?"
