Stealing the Heavens.

Chapter 80 The Conspiracy of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect

Sikong Bo brought more than fifty elders this time, including about twenty at the Void Breaking Realm, which is why Liu Moqing was so afraid.

The two Void Breaking Realm elders immediately returned to the sect with Zi Dong and Feng Qingwu, while Sikong Bo led the remaining elders to stay in Jinshi City.

Not only was the inn where Zi Dong and his group stayed sealed off by divine sense, but the entire Jinshi City was also enveloped by a divine sense array.

Unable to investigate the inn or the situation outside the city, Feng Yuntian and his companions could only wait anxiously at the city lord's mansion.

The two Void Breaking Realm elders went so far as to bypass the Falling Gold Mountain Range, carrying Zi Dong and Feng Qingwu on a rapid flight.

When they were about to fly to the southern foothills of the Fallen Gold Mountains, the demon, witch, and other races discovered them and quickly mobilized their forces to intercept them.

Upon receiving the message from the Demon Clan, Feng Yuntian and his two companions were enraged, and Yu Feiyan immediately went to confront Sikong Bo.

"Vice Alliance Leader, going to Sikong Bo now is useless. We need to find a way to stop Zi Dong as soon as possible!"

Liu Moqing quickly tried to dissuade him, saying that since Sikong Bo dared to do this, he didn't take the Wuji Immortal Palace and Tianfang Temple of the Central Continent seriously.

This is what is meant by "the emperor is far away and the heavens are high," meaning that cultivators and deities cannot easily leave the Central Continent, and the Eastern Continent is still dominated by the three major sects.

"None of us three can act rashly!" Feng Yuntian calmed down first:
"Lord Liu, send your men to cooperate with the demons to stop Zi Dong. Once the people from Langya City arrive, we'll settle accounts with Sikong Bo!"

Feng Yuntian and Yu Feiyan arrived at Jinshi City first, while the Flying Alliance members were still behind.

In the Central Continent, the main supporter of the Wuji Immortal Palace is the Qinglian Sword Sect, while the main supporter of the Tianfang Temple is the Demon Leopard Clan.

The demon and monster races have long occupied the area between the Azure Dragon Mountains and the Great Snow Mountain because of the tacit approval of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect.

Because of the close relationship between Wuji Immortal Palace and Tianfang Temple, Qinglian Sword Sect and Demon Leopard Clan also became very close.

Yu Feiyan's encouragement of Feng Yuntian to go to Langya City was actually premeditated; she wanted to drag Yuntian Sect into it.

Of the three major sects on the East Road, the Azure Lotus Sword Sect supports the Boundless Immortal Palace, while the Guangyan Sect supports the Phoenix Immortal Palace.

Only the Yuntian Sect did not fully support any other force in the Central Continent, because the Yuntian Sect wanted to build its own power in the Central Continent.

Although the Azure Lotus Sword Sect, the Guangyan Sect, and the Cloud Heaven Sect are known as the three major sects of the Eastern Continent, the Cloud Heaven Sect is actually the strongest.

Because the Azure Dragon Mountains possess the richest resources and cut off the entire Eastern Road.

The Azure Lotus Sword Sect and the Guangyan Sect can only occupy one place each in the north and south, while the vast and prosperous area in the middle of the eastern road belongs to the Cloud Heaven Sect.

Therefore, Wuji Immortal Palace and Tianfang Divine Palace wanted to support the Feng family to control Yuntian Sect and then gain the support of Yuntian Sect.

Unable to gain a foothold in the Yuntian Sect, Yu Feiyan had to find another way, so she tricked the out-of-power Feng Yuntian into coming to Langya City.

Then they would bring the Feng family over and take over the Yuntian Sect from Zhou Yunting.

Since the Wuji Immortal Palace and the Tianfang Divine Palace were unable to send anyone to the Eastern Continent, the mastermind behind all of this was the Qinglian Sword Sect and the Demon Leopard Clan.

Zi Dong had been staying at Yuntian Peak, so the Demon Leopard Clan had no opportunity to make a move. However, upon learning that Zi Dong was going to the Great Snow Mountain, they immediately colluded with the Qinglian Sword Sect, determined to retrieve the Demon God's horn.

However, to their surprise, Zi Dong learned the secret of the storage ring so quickly and notified the sect immediately.

Not all of Liu Moqing's men are in Jinshi City; many are in the Luojin Mountains, mining refined gold.

In order not to alert Sikong Bo, Liu Moqing directly mobilized the forces of the Falling Gold Mountain Range to cooperate with the Demon Clan in intercepting Zi Dong.

Sikong Bo led the elders of the Yuntian Sect to seal off the spiritual fluctuations in Jinshi City, but did not stop the transmission of messages.

However, he also deployed personnel in the Falling Gold Mountains to guard against any unusual movements from the demon, monster, and witch races. Liu Moqing's mobilization of a large number of people in the Falling Gold Mountains was immediately noticed by the elders of the Cloud Heaven Sect who remained in the mountains.

Upon learning the news, Sikong Bo immediately led his men to the city lord's mansion, intending to capture Liu Moqing first.

Leaving Jinshi City leaderless was also meant to deter Fengyuntian and Yufeiyan from making any rash moves.

"Liu Moqing, come with me to the inn!" Sikong Bo didn't waste any words and directly tried to take Liu Moqing away.

"Master Sikong, why is this?!" Liu Moqing feigned a puzzled look, though he naturally knew why.

"You mobilized the forces of the Fallen Gold Mountains to help the demon, monster, and witch races intercept Zi Dong. For this alone, I can sentence you to death!" Sikong Bo immediately rebuked.

"Hall Master Sikong, I've been at the City Lord's Mansion the whole time. How could I know about the situation in the Falling Gold Mountains? They must have acted on their own!"

Liu Moqing then feigned innocence, clearing himself of any wrongdoing and staying at the city lord's mansion to prepare to mobilize more manpower.

"Whether you instigated it or they acted on their own, I will take you into custody first!"

Sikong Bo would never believe Liu Moqing's words. He was determined to arrest him and wouldn't let Liu Moqing mobilize any more people.

"Sikong Bo, don't go too far!" Seeing that Feng Yuntian remained silent, Yu Feiyan had no choice but to jump out and reprimand Sikong Bo.

"Yu Feiyan, if you don't want to involve the Azure Lotus Sword Sect, then stay put!" Sikong Bo's eyes flashed with anger once again.

"I'd like to see what you, this so-called sword cultivator, are capable of!" Yu Feiyan felt as if she had been stripped naked again, and she was furious and embarrassed, and was about to make a move.

"Feiyan, calm down!" Feng Yuntian quickly grabbed Yu Feiyan, not daring to let her fight Sikong Bo.

He had witnessed Sikong Bo's power firsthand; Sikong Bo had transformed himself into a sword spirit and used a greatsword to kill three demon cultivators at the Void Breaking Realm, who fled in terror.

"Hmph, I'll defeat him sooner or later!" Yu Feiyan had always been dissatisfied with Sikong Bo, who was known as the number one swordsman in the Eastern Continent.

The Azure Lotus Sword Sect is all about swordsmanship, yet they have always been looked down upon as not being true sword cultivators. Naturally, she wanted to defeat Sikong Bo and vindicate the Azure Lotus Sword Sect.

"Lord Liu, you should follow Hall Master Sikong first." Feng Yuntian winked at Liu Moqing.

Once the Flying Alliance arrives, he will immediately lead his men to surround the inn, and Liu Moqing can also act as an inside agent.

Liu Moqing was a smart man and naturally understood Feng Yuntian's meaning, so he followed Sikong Bo out of the city lord's mansion.

The two Void Breaking Realm elders were very fast. Although they were carrying Zi Dong and Feng Qingwu, they still traveled directly through the void.

However, the entire Luojin Mountain Range was filled with cultivators from the demon, monster, and witch races. They blocked the way from the front and chased from the back, and the two Void Breaking Realm elders were still stopped on the southern slope of the Luojin Mountain Range.

"I'll stay behind to hold them off, Lao Qian, you take the two of them and continue on your way!" Elder Zhu Yi put Feng Qingwu down and said to Elder Qian Feng with a solemn expression.

"Alright." Elder Qian Feng knew his responsibility was even greater, so he grabbed Feng Qingwu and immediately carried the two of them to continue flying.

Neither Zi Dong nor Feng Qingwu uttered a word. There were simply too many cultivators from the demon, monster, and witch clans. Without the two elders, they would have no way to get back to their sect.

Moreover, Elders Zhu Yi and Qian Feng had already told them that Sikong Bo had already arranged manpower around the Luojin Mountains, so dealing with the demon, monster, and witch races would not be a problem.

Elder Qian Feng had only flown for a short while when he was stopped by two demon clan elders at the Void Breaking Realm, forcing him to abandon Zi Dong and Feng Qingwu to fight.

"Junior Sister Qingwu, be careful. I'm going to help Elder Qian." Zi Dong immediately summoned ten flying swords, preparing to fight alongside Elder Qian Feng against the two demon race elders at the Void Breaking Realm.
