Immortal Soaring Blade

Vol.2-Chapter 264 – Outrageously Bold in One’s Lust

Seeing everyone’s gazes locked on him, Messenger Liao felt embarrassed. However, seeing the other elders looking at him, he quickly calmed himself. “The people from Deer Mountain didn’t come, but we caught four strange people. A cold and beautiful woman along with a young girl and two young men. Like ordinary people, they don’t have any spirit force, but their attitudes aren’t ordinary at all. Disciple had some doubts, so I came to inform Teacher and the two elders of this matter. They are being guarded by Senior Brother Li right now.”

Messenger Liao felt that this matter was very strange and was afraid of hidden danger. He didn’t dare conceal anything and explained every little detail to the elders.

“Nonsense. You’re my disciple! A Spirit Core Realm cultivator is afraid of even a few ordinary people? With your mental strength, you still want to cultivate? You really let me down.”

After Messenger Liao explained everything, the Third Elder’s expression was very ugly and he loudly reprimanded Messenger Liao. His saliva flew into Messenger Liao’s face, who was too afraid to move, and his face was swollen red.

“Teacher, I feel that these people are not ordinary people and are likely disciples from a famous orthodox sect that came here by accident. Their temperament is not ordinary, especially that woman. She is so beautiful, she looks like she came out of a painting. I have never seen such a beautiful woman before.” Although he was reprimanded by his teacher, Messenger Liao couldn\'t help but voice his thoughts.

Hearing his disciples words, his stern expression lessened a bit. He understood his own disciple’s personality very well. Although his disciple’s cultivation was a bit slow, it was very steady, and most importantly, he was very cautious. If it wasn’t really something really strange, this disciple of his wouldn’t have rushed down here.

Hearing Messenger Liao talk about a beautiful woman, the Ninth Elder’s eyes shined and he quickly said, “Third Brother, let the two of us go take a look. We know this child’s personality. If it were not something truly strange, he wouldn’t be making a fuss. The Pavilion Master has entered a critical moment and his success will be determined in a few days. We can’t allow a little thing to cause everything to fail in the end.”

“What are you worried about? I bet you’re just thinking about that woman and want to have some fun. You have stayed down here for almost two months and can’t stand it anymore.”

The Fifth Elder helplessly shook his head and smiled. They were all like real brothers, and they understood each other’s personalities very well. He laughed and then looked at the Third Elder. “Third Brother, you and Ninth Brother go up and see what’s going on. I can guard this place myself. I believe that with so many of us here, even if they are disciples from an orthodox sect, there is nothing to fear.”

“Hehe, Fifth Brother understands me. Third Brother, if you’re not interested, then give me that beauty your disciple got for you. I haven’t had any meat in a few months, so let me have some fun, Third Brother.”

Facing Fifth Elder’s teasing, the Ninth Elder wasn’t embarrassed at all and instead laughed out loud.

“Okay, okay, okay, let us go up and see what’s going on. We have been down here for a few months; let us go up for a bit.” The Third Elder smiled. He understood the Ninth Elder’s personality. Since the matter was getting so much attention, he didn’t mind going up to check it out. If there was any hidden danger, he would destroy it before it could cause trouble.

Hearing the Third Elder agree, the Ninth Elder smiled and said, “Third Brother is the best. If those four people really are disciples from a famous orthodox sect, it would be the best. Leave that beauty to Third Brother and I, and Fifth Brother can have the rest. I believe you all haven’t had blood from a cultivator for a long time.”

“Go, go, I’ll guard this place, rest assured. Beside there is only one path down here.” The Fifth Elder urged them. Compared to the composed Third Elder and the lustful Ninth Elder, the Fifth Elder was a loner.

Hearing this, the Third Elder didn’t say more and left with the Ninth Elder and Messenger Liao. As for security, the Third Elder was not worried, as there were dozens of elite Blood Fiend Pavilion disciples here, along with more than 10 Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. The dozens of cultivators above were also not bad—half of them were the core of the sect. Not to mention they didn’t even know if those youths were really cultivators. Even if Deer Mountain slaughtered their way here, he was not afraid. Their Blood Fiend Pavilion had the advantage right now, and normally they were dead-even with Deer Mountain. What the Third Elder didn’t know was that he would lose his life by going up there.

In the canyon at the bottom of Southern Pond Mountain.

The smell of meat and wine filled the air. Although the surrounding scenery was engulfed by darkness, the center of the canyon was very bright. There were campfires all over the place, with a big one in the middle. There was an abundant amount of firewood.

The smell of barbecue meat and wine came from this place. There were no less than 20 figures gathered here, all wearing blood-colored robes. Two figures were particularly dazzling—Li Hechao and Zhau Liangjun. One of them was the Third Elder’s disciple and the other was the Fifth Elder’s disciple.

There were disciples guarding the entrance of the canyon, so they were not worried at all and were enjoying themselves. What’s more, the higher-ups of the sect were all below the canyon, so they weren’t worried about anything.

They smelled the fragrances in the air and listened to the chirping of the surrounding insects. The cool night breeze blew by and laughter filled the air.

“Come, Brother Li, I’ll toast you.” Zhu Liangjun had a chicken thigh in one hand and a brown wine jar in the other. He raised the wine jar toward Li Hechao and smiled.

“Come drink!” Li Hechao felt very good when someone respected him. He watched Zhu Liangjun flatter him and even felt his disdain toward Zhu Liangjun lessen.

The surrounding disciples were all toasting each other and drinking. All the disciples here were undoubtedly the elite of the sect. All the weaker disciples had been sent off to the edge of the mountain or the canyon to patrol or stand guard.

These elite disciples naturally knew Li Hechao and Zhu Liangjun’s statuses. They were the future higher-ups of the sect, the direct disciples of the elders. The other 20 or so disciples were flattering them.

The two of them naturally enjoyed the atmosphere and didn’t act pretentious. Instead, they got along well with everyone. They were not stupid—they naturally knew that in the future, they would still have to rely on the support from these disciples.

One disciple sitting near Li Hechao and Zhu Liangjun was skinny like a monkey. Perhaps because he had drunk too much of the spirit wine and was a bit intoxicated, he muttered a question.

“Brother Li and Brother Zhu, do you know why we’ve been here for these past few months? Even the elders and the Pavilion Master are on the move.”

The moment he asked this question, the originally noisy scene immediately quieted down. All the disciples looked at Li Hechao and Zhu Liangjun. They were curious about how they would answer.

“That’s right, Brother Li and Brother Zhu, please tell us what this matter is about.”

“That’s right, we\'ve been here for several months now and we don’t even know why.”

“You two senior brothers have special status, you must know more than us.”

Voices continued to echo. Everyone wanted to know the reason for coming here.

Li Hechao and Zhu Liangjun looked at each other and their expressions became heavy. Neither of them took the lead to speak. When the surrounding disciples saw their expressions darken, they all stopped stalking. They carefully studied their expressions, and the atmosphere became a tense.

A moment later, feeling this depressed atmosphere, Li Hechao smiled and slowly said, “Fellow junior brothers, it’s not that we don’t want to tell you, but the Pavilion Master has ordered us to remain silent. I can only tell you that this matter will be over soon and the strength of our Blood Fiend Pavilion will rise. Even when we face off against Deer Mountain, we will have nothing to fear and can even directly destroy them. When we return to the Southern Barbarian Forest, there will be a place for us in the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range!”

Hearing Li Hechao’s answer, although they didn’t get a specific answer, they at least knew a bit more now. When they heard that their sect’s strength would rise, they were shocked and surprised. They didn’t know what could cause such a thing to happen, but since the Pavilion Master had ordered them to remain silent, they could hold the doubt in their hearts.

The young man that was skinny like a monkey held up a jar of wine and said “Come, two senior brothers, drink. Since the Pavilion Master has given the order, then I can’t trouble my two senior brothers anymore.”

Li Hechao and Zhu Liangjun both took the jar of wine. The two of them naturally knew why they had come here, because they were disciples of the elders, but they naturally didn’t dare to reveal it. After all, this would determine the fate of the sect.

Ths scene became more lively, as if everyone had forgotten the little accident from earlier. Li Hechao became a bit drunk and continued to drink. Zhu Liangjun coldly watched from the side.

“Haha, you guys drink. I’ll go to the restroom.” Zhu Liangjun quickly got up to leave, and Li Hechao didn’t seem to mind. He held up a jar of wine and waved his hand.

Seeing this, Zhu Liangjun had a sly smile on his face, and he looked toward the secret prison. He quickly got away from the fires and the people.

He was obviously pretending to be drunk and wasn’t going to the restroom. He had his own hidden purpose.
