Chapter 1191: Chapter 1191: Suspicion Breeds Discord
At the Penglai Pavilion, the Island Master was in the grand hall receiving guests from both Fangzhang Island and Yingzhou Island.
They had co this ti to discuss the collaboration of the Three Islands, preparing to seize famous mountains and rivers on land when the heavens and earth underwent changes.
All these famous mountains and rivers were places where opportunities arose; anyone with a clear view of the current situation would be tempted.
The emissary from Fangzhang Island had dark skin, two horns on his head, a burly body, and his head was sowhat large and rough.
He was the Third Son of the Black Dragon King and was accompanied by more than a dozen guards.
The emissary from Yingzhou Island, in contrast, was more handso by threefold.
This young man wore a white robe and held a folding fan, with a retinue of striking female cultivators.
He was called Yu Kun, the son of the Island Master of Yingzhou Island.
The Island Master chatted with them happily and had good tea brought out to serve them.
Suddenly, the Resonant Bell used by Penglai Island for morning exercise and alert sounded.
Jin Yang had Shuixiu strike the Bronze Bell, and together with Jin Yue, they burst into the grand hall; he rushed to report to the Island Master urgently, “It’s terrible, a great misfortune has occurred. Island Master, there are intruders from Fangzhang Island and Yingzhou Island; they have killed all the guards at the South Heavenly Gate!”
“What?”
The entire hall was shocked; the Island Master and several Elders all stood up.
The Third Black Prince and Yu Kun also frowned and instinctively glanced at their servants.
Island Master Mu Yuanchu gave the two a doubtful look, and focused on Jin Yang asking sharply, “What nonsense are you talking about? The emissaries from both islands are here, then who is causing trouble outside? Didn’t I send you guys to handle affairs on the mainland, how have you returned?”
The Third Black Prince and Yu Kun both stared coldly at Jin Yang.
Beads of sweat ford on Jin Yang’s head, and tremulously, he claid, “They claid to be the sons of the Island Masters of Fangzhang Island and Yingzhou Island. We encountered them on our way, and they forcibly captured us and brought us back.”
He didn’t admit that it was his own initiative to bring people over, just that they were captured and taken back.
Jin Yue added, “These people are fierce and malicious, striking to injure at the first instance; please capture these criminals imdiately, Island Master!”
The Third Black Prince and Yu Kun were the first to jump up, angrily confronting Jin Yang and shouting, “What audacity, a petty thief daring to impersonate us; let’s go and see for ourselves.”
Island Master Mu Yuanchu eyed the two doubtfully, feeling suddenly uncertain about them.
Fearing they might escape, he quickly called out from behind, “Let’s all go and see for ourselves!”
All the masters of the great hall went out together.
In the pavilions and lofts at the foot of the mountain, Long Fei and his two companions were leisurely strolling as if they were sightseeing.
A group of cultivators watched them, clueless about their origins, nor did they know what had transpired.
Only the alarm bell sounded, yet no movent was seen; so even thought it was a prank.
Chu Feng continuously greeted a group of female cultivators, calling out loudly, “Dear Misses, I am Chu Batian, son of the Island Master of Yingzhou Island; a pleasure to et you, truly a pleasure!”
The female cultivators frowned, so with unfriendly looks, so covered their mouths to laugh, and so were starstruck.
“I am Long Aotian, Fourth Prince of Fangzhang Island, I have long admired you all!”
Long Fei introduced himself to the male cultivators he t.
This group of male disciples seed to know a lot; soone asked, “Weren’t you in the grand hall talking with the Island Master? How co you’re out here now?”
“Where is Fangzhang Island? Is it far from here?”
“I heard that the Island Master of Fangzhang Island is a Black Jiao Dragon that has beco sentient, is that true?”
“Long Batian? Such an arrogant na; are you from the Demon Clan?”
This group was very bold in speaking.
So were quite presumptuous, their eyes scanning Long Fei up and down, not so friendly.
Shuixiu was the first to rush over, tenderly cautioning the crowd, “Be careful, everyone, these people are bad. They killed the gatekeeper brother; quickly, capture them!”
“What?”
“Is that true?”
“Scoundrels, to dare to commit such an atrocity!”
The crowd boiled with agitation, all quickly retreating cautiously, swiftly encircling Long Fei and the other two.
Lin Yingying gave Long Fei and Chu Feng a disdainful look from behind and said, “I told you two to keep a low profile, but you just wouldn’t listen, and now look what’s happened?”
Chu Feng sighed, “We are honored guests after all, these people really lack any sense of hospitality.”
Long Fei smiled, “It’s understandable, they must be jealous of our talent and good looks. My brothers are handso as can be, more attractive than Pan An, like a pear blossom overwhelming the begonias, it’s normal to be envied.”
“Shut up, I’m going to be sick!”
Lin Yingying pinched him from behind, disgusted by these two with their shalessly thick skins.
If only they would start fighting; instead, they just strolled forward chatting and laughing without causing any trouble.
This made everyone assu they had so special moves up their sleeves, encircling them without daring to make a move.
As they moved forward step by step, the surrounding disciples retreated step by step.
Island Master Mu Yuanchu hurried over with a group, standing on a rock and berating from above, “Who dares to cause trouble here?”
Shuixiu looked up, saw the Island Master arriving, and imdiately breathed a sigh of relief.
Jin Yang and Jin Yue pointed at Long Fei and the others with bloodshot eyes and yelled, “Island Master, it’s these three violent thieves! They captured us and forced us onto the island, and they killed our fellow disciples!”
“Island Master, you must avenge our brothers!”
Before Mu Yuanchu could speak, the Third Black Prince and Yu Kun glared at the trio of Long Fei and hastily shouted, “Who are you? Why would you falsely claim our identities?”
Upon a glance, Long Fei and the others instantly understood that these two were envoys from Fangzhang Island and Yingzhou Island.
Long Fei blurted out loudly, “Big brother, what are we waiting for? Kill Mu Yuanchu and divide up Penglai Island.”
He pressed down with his hand, and a gust of fist wind reversed the space, striking from behind Mu Yuanchu.
Mu Yuanchu didn’t see who made the move, only feeling a palm wind attacking him from behind.
His grey robe shook thunderously, and he imdiately leaped into the air.
The power of the palm was formidable, and with a thunderous blast, it shattered the rock beneath Mu Yuanchu’s feet.
Rocks flew in all directions, catching the surrounding youngsters off guard.
With a series of dull thuds, more than a dozen cultivators were struck until they bled from their heads.
“Damn it!”
The Third Dragon Prince and Yu Kun hastily retreated to both sides, not knowing who suddenly attacked and almost injured them as well.
Mu Yuanchu scolded them, “Scoundrels, I treated you as honored guests, is this how you repay ?”
“Soone is framing us.”
“It’s not like that.”
The two hurried to defend themselves, feeling so aggrieved they could almost vomit blood. With the palm coming from behind, Mu Yuanchu’s suspicions were natural.
The old man was enraged and decided to capture these intruders first, regardless of the true circumstances.
He shouted at the disciples, “Five Elents Formation, capture them!”
Penglai Island, specializing in the Five Elents.
The disciples often practiced it, using the Five Elents Formation as the island’s major offensive and defensive strategy.
The voices were loud, the figures shifting.
“Form the array!”
Nearly ten thousand disciples yelled in unison, quickly forming the Five Elents Sword Array that encircled Long Fei and his group, as well as the Third Black Prince and Yu Kun, within it.
The Third Black Prince and Yu Kun were so frustrated they were close to spitting blood. They had been sent by their elders for a friendly alliance and never expected to end up in such a predicant.
They shouted at Mu Yuanchu, “Island Master, are you really going to trust the words of these outsiders and ruin our relationship?”
Mu Yuanchu demanded, “If you have been wronged, then don’t fight back, bind yourselves. After we capture these three, we will clear your nas.”
“Bullshit!”
“What kind of logic is that!”
The two cursed, never having seen such a foolish island master.
