Zhuge Liang's Journey to Dominate the World: Starting from Another World

Kongming thought to himself that the three great families must have sensed that something was wrong, which was why they acted this way.

However, his face remained calm, but his mind was racing, trying to think of a solution.

A moment later, he spotted three familiar figures in the crowd. He flashed and appeared behind the Three Demons of the Demons without leaving a trace.

"Do you three want to die here, or leave alive?"

Upon hearing the voice, the three demons trembled violently and turned around in terror. When they saw who it was, they realized they didn't recognize them, and a fierce look instantly appeared on their faces.

"Who are you? How dare you play tricks and threaten me! Don't you even know the reputation of us three brothers?" The Three Demons glared fiercely at Kongming.

Kongming raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. "Do you three have enough antidote?"

Upon hearing this, the three men were immediately startled, their fierce expressions instantly replaced by fear. They exchanged glances, their expressions filled with suspicion and uncertainty.

The eldest brother, Black Fiend, feigned composure and tentatively asked, "You...you are Zhuge Liang!"

Kongming's lips curled slightly upward, his eyes carrying a hint of mockery. "Looks like you're not too stupid after all, you've finally recognized me. What, do you still want to fight me?"

The three demons recalled how easily Kongming had subdued them in the secret realm and how they had been forced to take the Blood Demon Pill. A wave of fear washed over them, and their arrogance vanished instantly.

"So it really is Fellow Daoist Zhuge! My three brothers and I were just wondering where to find you, but we never expected you to show yourself!" Hei Sha's face immediately plastered with a fawning smile.

The third brother, the skinny one, immediately chimed in, "Fellow Daoist Zhuge, I was blind to your greatness before, please forgive me. Now that the journey to the secret realm is over, could you perhaps..."

The skinny man rubbed his hands together, his eyes filled with anticipation, clearly hoping that Kongming could help them completely break free from the control of the Blood Demon Pill.

"Hmph! You guys are really bold. It's still unknown whether you can get out of here alive, yet you've already come up with this idea!" Kongming sneered and said with a stern expression.

There is no antidote for the Blood Demon Pill poison, and even if there were, Kongming would never give it to them.

Back then, he suffered greatly from the effects of this pill; betraying him would have been no easy feat. If it weren't for Zhu Bajie's generous bloodletting, he would probably still be firmly under the control of the Blood Drop Pavilion!

A hint of panic flashed across the Three Fiends' faces as they forced a smile and asked, "What makes you say that, Fellow Daoist Zhuge?"

Kongming's gaze swept over the three men, and he said in a cold voice, "The three great families have sealed off this place because their people have disappeared without a trace. If they can't get out, then we may all be buried with them. Do you understand?"

Upon hearing this, the Three Fiends' faces turned deathly pale. Given the way ancient aristocratic families operated, they, as rogue cultivators, had no chance of survival.

Hei Sha swallowed hard, forcing himself to remain calm, and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhuge, what do you think we should do?"

Kongming narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Now, the only way for us to survive is to create chaos and make the three great families too busy to take care of themselves."

"Please enlighten me, Fellow Daoist Zhuge!" the Three Fiends hurriedly said.

Kongming waved his feather fan, gesturing for the three to come closer, and whispered something in their ears...

Before an incense stick could burn, news spread like wildfire that a mysterious Taoist temple had appeared within the secret realm and that the Sima family had obtained a supreme treasure.

Some even speculated that it was because the other two families joined forces to chase the Sima family deep into the Taoist temple in order to seize the opportunity that all three families disappeared.

After all, the various independent cultivators knew about the extraordinary sight that appeared in the north of the secret realm, even though they hadn't personally witnessed it.

Therefore, more and more people have come to believe this rumor.

Even if the members of the three great families used soul-searching techniques on the rogue cultivators, they could only get this result.

Within the Xuanyuan family camp, a group of elders had grim faces. They had invested heavily in this trip to the secret realm, and their ancestor was still waiting for the Law Crystal to extend his life. Now, however, there was no news of their clansmen, which made them extremely anxious and furious.

Immediately, a leading elder of the Xuanyuan family stood up abruptly, glared at the Sima family members, and roared in a voice like a bell: "Listen up, Sima family members! My Xuanyuan family members have been completely out of contact, you must be up to no good, you must give me an explanation today!"

Seeing that the Xuanyuan family had already launched an attack on the Sima family, a golden glint flashed in the eyes of the leading elder of the Ji family camp. Naturally, they would not miss such a perfect opportunity to fish in troubled waters and grab a share of the spoils.

After all, if the Sima family were to discover some great opportunity within the secret realm, how could they possibly stand by and watch someone else monopolize the benefits?

The Ji family elder cleared his throat, stepped forward, and said loudly, "Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan is right. None of our two families have shown up yet, which is too strange. Could this be a scheme orchestrated by your Sima family?"

The Sima family, being questioned by both families simultaneously, secretly groaned in despair. They did know that there was a great opportunity in the secret realm, and that three Nascent Soul cultivators had infiltrated it, carrying incredibly powerful magic weapons. But they had never imagined wiping out the other two families.

However, this is not the time to show weakness.

An elder from the Sima family said in a deep voice, "Hmph! None of my Sima family members have come out yet, have they? Besides, in the past, everyone relied on their own abilities in the competition for the secret realm. I have never heard of anyone holding a grudge just because a few disciples have died. If you are afraid of death, you might as well not participate!"

Upon hearing this, the leading elder of the Xuanyuan family turned ashen-faced. The family had been planning for this secret realm for a long time, how could they just give up now?

Suddenly, his aura exploded, pressing down on the Sima family members.

"Old man Xuanyuan, what are you trying to do? Are you trying to start a clan war?"

When the elders of the Sima family saw that the Xuanyuan clan had actually made a move, they did not back down and immediately took up their stances to confront them, creating a tense atmosphere.

But no one expected that the members of the three great families had already been killed by Kongming...
