Villain Master, my disciples all want to backstab me

Then, they all turned their attention to Mingyu and Xuanshi.

The "Sky-Splitting Black Eagle" and the "Silver-Scaled Python" were among the more intelligent of the Eastern Wasteland demon tribes, with the former being the initiator and leader of this small alliance. In situations like this, they were naturally needed to act as advisors and draw conclusions.

After a brief silence.

The silver snake Xuan Shi first cast his gaze towards the black coffin, spitting out his snake tongue: "I have a guess."

"Could it be that the human named 'Blood Kite' is faking his death?"

"Ok?"

"From our perspective, we can only see this coffin. As for whether the person lying inside the coffin is 'Blood Kite' or whether she is truly dead, no one knows."

Hearing Xuan Shi's words, Elder Ying Bao pondered for a moment. "Even if we can't see any clues through the video, can't Ling Xiuya from Tianyuan Mountain see it? Would he allow 'Blood Kite' to fake his death in front of him?"

"Well... that possibility cannot be ruled out."

Xuan Shi spat out his tongue again, his silver-white snake pupils slowly moving. "Blood Yuan 'died' once in Luoxing Valley, but reappeared after disappearing for several months. Now she's 'died' again in the [Cangwu Abyss]... This means her first death was fake. If she could deceive Qingxuan Sect, she could certainly deceive Tianyuan Mountain."

"If this Blood Kite is indeed not dead, and has secretly recovered to the Spiritual Transformation Realm, then the deaths of Mingkong and the others can be explained."

"On the other hand, if Xue Yuan is truly dead, then this matter can only be attributed to the Ji family. Only the Ji family's intervention can explain why several Yuanying realm cultivators, working together, were able to kill a dignified Huashen."

Hear this speculation.

Mo Zhe's demonic energy suddenly exploded, and the murderous intent in his eyes became even more boiling: "So... is she still alive? And it was she who brought her disciples and the Ji family to kill my brother?"

Chapter 167 I’m going to destroy the four righteous sects?

usually.

The family ties between the demon race are relatively weak.

This was a tradition inherited from the demon beast era. Although the demon race, possessing advanced intelligence, no longer engaged in cannibalism, patricide, or inbreeding like the lower-level demon beasts, they also didn't place much importance on their blood relatives.

Just like when Mingkong died, Mingyu, the elder of the Xuanying tribe and his direct elder, didn't feel anything, as if just an ordinary member of the tribe had died.

However, Mo Zhe and Mo Ning are exceptions.

Seeing that the murderous intent in this guy could no longer be suppressed, the Shadow Leopard Elder next to him snorted coldly, and a powerful aura close to the sixth level of the Spirit Transformation Realm burst out, directly dispersing Mo Zhe's momentum, as if a basin of cold water was poured over his head, calming him down a little.

But it’s just “some”.

"Elder, I request to leave our clan and head to Central Continent!"

Mo Zhe spoke again.

"Ah."

Elder Shadow Leopard said slowly: "Do you think this is a simple matter?

"To reach Zhongzhou, one must cross the 'Netherworld Sea of ​​Bitterness', which is itself an obstacle. Furthermore, the situation in Zhongzhou is even more unclear. Whether the person who killed Mo Ning is from the Ji family or that 'Blood Kite', this matter is of no small importance."

"Mo Ning is already at the Spiritual Transformation Realm, and possesses the innate magical power of 'Shadow Walk'. Killing him is no easy task, especially in an unexpected encounter... If we act hastily without thoroughly investigating the cause of his death, the result will be no different from his."

"..."

Mo Zheng was a little annoyed, and he couldn't help but use his leopard tail to violently smash a nearby rock. Amidst the flying debris, he took a deep breath and said, "The elders are teaching me. I lost my composure for a moment. Please forgive me... May I ask what the adults plan to do? If you want to go to Zhongzhou to carry out your mission, Mo Zheng is willing to be your vanguard."

There was a brief silence.

Ming Yu then spoke, "Along with this intelligence, there's also a letter from the Shentu family. They say our failure to hunt Ling Xiuya has alerted the Tianyuan Sword Sect. Coupled with the feud between the Xueyuan Sect and the Qingxuan Sect, the four righteous sects are likely to seize the opportunity to join forces and launch a campaign against the Demon Sect, similar to the one they launched eighty years ago."

"If this result occurs, then we cannot stay out of it. Especially when the Jiang family was destroyed, it was not just the Xueyuan Sect and the Shentu Family that were responsible. We were also involved. So..."

"so?"

"So we need to be prepared to strike again. It would be best if we could destroy their alliance before the Four Righteous Sects take action. Only then can we completely resolve this crisis."

Ming Yu said something shocking.

"……what?"

Hearing Ming Yu say this, the lion demon Fentian opened his mouth and said, "We... are going to destroy the four righteous sects? Is this true?"

Although these four demon tribes can gather together a lot of combat power at the Nascent Soul and Spirit Transformation realms, the gap is still obvious when compared with the four righteous sects with profound foundation.

If they have that ability, why would they need to join forces with the Shentu family?

Facing the doubts of several great demons, Ming Yu spoke again:

"The strength of the four righteous sects varies. Not every leader has the level of cultivation of Ling Xiuya, nor does it require all of them to be destroyed to be considered successful. There's an old saying in the human world: 'It's better to break one finger than to injure ten.' As long as one of the four righteous sects can be completely wiped out, their fragile alliance will collapse.

"Shentu Hong has set the target for us as Qingxuan Sect."

"According to what that guy said in the letter, the Qingxuan Sect lost a lot of manpower due to the two operations to hunt the 'Blood Kite'. Even its leader Qing Lingzi was seriously injured. Its strength is no longer as strong as before.

"The Shentu family has planted numerous spies within the four righteous sects, including a high-ranking member of the Liguang Sword Sect, who can provide timely details of the four sects' alliance. With this intelligence, it shouldn't be difficult to destroy the Qingxuan Sect, the weakest of the four."

"If we can accomplish this, the Shentu family can give us half of the Qingxuan Sect's heritage, including the cultivators except Qing Lingzi, and we can use them as we please."

Several big monsters looked at each other and their expressions brightened.

The plan formulated by Shentu Hong sounds...

Seems pretty good.

Twenty years ago, when the Jiang family was destroyed, they had already shared a lot of food and had eaten their fill. If they could do it again... the harvest would definitely be huge, it would just depend on whether the price they had to pay was something they could afford.

——No matter what, Qingxuan Sect is an old sect that has existed for thousands of years. Although it is weak, it is impossible to defeat it without any damage.

As for the Blood Kite...

Priority can only be put on the back burner. After all, this is just a personal vendetta, and it was Mo Ning who started it himself. In the face of the demon clan's great cause, it can only be subjectively ignored.

Ming Yu glanced at Mo Zeng and continued:

"Shen Tuhong's letter said that it was up to us to decide how to deal with this person, and that he could provide necessary intelligence assistance if needed."

"This human female cultivator named 'Blood Kite' killed two of my clansmen and should be annihilated. However, her whereabouts are difficult to track. Furthermore, dealing with her would require dispersing our forces, which would be detrimental to our overall plan... If you have any ideas, please feel free to share them."

“…I have an idea.”

Mo Zhe suddenly spoke.

"Ok?"

Several big demons looked over.

Mo Zheng took a deep breath and then said, "Lord Mingyu's concern is simply because we have limited manpower to deploy to Central Continent, but... as long as we don't send out our own people, can't we avoid dispersing our forces?

"Qingluo of the Divine Phoenix Valley is the human-phoenix hybrid that our clan brought back from Central Continent... She was once a disciple of the 'Blood Kite Demon Lord,' and the two of them have a deep blood feud. If we pass this information on to her..."

There is no need to say more about the rest.

Everyone present had heard about Qingluo's affairs. After all, the Divine Phoenix Clan had always had a weak reproductive capacity, and over the past thousand years, its population had dwindled to a visibly small number. Under such circumstances, the arrival of a new member was a major event.

Not to mention that the newcomer was a descendant of the Phoenix Ancestor. When he first arrived, no one noticed him, but now he's transformed into a powerful being at the Spirit Transformation Realm... The envy and hatred of countless races in the Eastern Wilderness Demon Territory is palpable. Sky-Splitting Black Eagle even dreams of eliminating him, but simply can't find the opportunity.

now.

If we can use Qingluo as a lure to drag the Shenhuang clan into the water... that would be killing two birds with one stone!

Compared with the Jiang family and the Qingxuan Sect, the Shenhuang clan is Mingyu's ultimate goal.

If I could consume this bloodline intact...

Then their Sky-Splitting Black Eagles would surely undergo a new evolution and become another supreme demon clan standing shoulder to shoulder with the Taixu Ancient Dragon!

Think of this.

Ming Yu immediately made a decision and said:

"Mo Zhe, I'll leave this matter to you. After all, the little girl named Qingluo was brought back by your clan's Mo Yuan, so we have some ties to each other. If that girl really wants to leave the Eastern Wasteland, we can secretly provide her with the necessary assistance."

"Once she reaches Central Continent and encounters the Blood Kite, that will be the time for us to seize the opportunity and take action... Oh, I can't wait to see the expression on the face of the Divine Phoenix Clan's ancestor's face when he learns of Qingluo's death."

After a pause, Ming Yu added, "As a reward for making this suggestion, once the four clans have decided on the candidates to go to Central Continent, you can be counted as one."

"As ordered!"

Mo Zeng showed a look of joy.

After responding, Mo Zhe turned and left, hurried to Shenhuang Valley.

Although the last time they met, they had a fight because they didn't agree on what to say, but this time...

Mo Zheng was confident that he could make the news of "Blood Kite is not dead" trigger an explosive effect in Qing Luo's ears, and then make her follow the route he had planned...

Wait until he leaves.

The four demon elders gathered together again and began to watch another video.

This was the other half of the video intelligence that Mo Zheng hadn't seen. It was the scene of the five Spiritual Transformation Realm cultivators, including the Eagle-Faced Man, working together to hunt Ling Xiuya!

"...Is this Ling Xiuya actually that strong? Even five people in the Spiritual Transformation Realm were unable to stop him?"

The one who spoke was Elder Shadow Leopard.

"After all, he's the 'Number One of the Righteous Path,' the most gifted person the Tianyuan Sword Sect has seen in the past eight hundred years. If he could be killed so easily, then the Shentu family and we wouldn't have to go to such great lengths... If I remember correctly, there seem to be two Return to Void Realm ancestors on Tianyuan Mountain. We must be on guard against them."

Ming Yu pondered and spoke slowly.

"...It's a shame that I, Fentian, couldn't participate in such an extremely exciting battle. What a pity."

This is the red flame lion monster.

"There will be a chance."

Mingyu waved his wings, folding the feathers containing the information, and then lowered his voice: "All the information has been communicated to everyone, and the irrelevant people have left. Now, let's start discussing the selection of people to go to Zhongzhou..."

…………

the other side.

Inside the Purple Mist Valley.

Yu Qiuming finally agreed to Bai Yuan's request.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t agree.

After all, Bai Yuan held the final say. If she wanted Yu Qiuming dead, she wouldn't even need to do it herself. Simply releasing Bai Hu would be enough to put him to death.

——Yu Qiu Ming’s cultivation in his prime was inferior to Bai Hu’s, let alone him now.

after that.

Bai Yuan let Yu Qiuming leave and asked him to find Valley Master Xiao Yuchen.

Bai Yuan himself stayed with Ji Tingxue and Ye Shuang'er. He first counted the distribution of poisonous insects and medicines in the valley, and then picked the mature ones in batches and gave them to Ye Shuang'er for consumption.

After this period of hardship, Ye Shuang'er has grown up and no longer needs to be as cautious as she was at the beginning when taking poison.

Moreover, the little girl herself also wants to improve her cultivation as quickly as possible so that she can better protect her master in the subsequent battles.

In light of these two factors, Bai Yuan no longer prescribed a daily dosage for Ye Shuang'er, instead letting the little girl manage it herself. Of course, she still instructed Bai Hu to help keep an eye on her, lest the little girl rush into taking an indigestible amount of poison in one go, which might require her, her master, to help her digest it...

over the next few days.

Several people simultaneously started practicing:

Bai Yuan is wearing a 350% spiritual power absorption accelerator, which can be increased to 450% at night. Every second is precious to her.

Ye Shuang'er could improve her cultivation simply by swallowing poison; theoretically, there was no upper limit. She just had to be careful not to overeat.

Ji Tingxue's method of cultivation is "enlightenment". Once he has an epiphany, he can jump several levels, or even directly enter the realm of transformation.

Plus, Jiang Rao, who is currently in Tianyuan Mountain, is also practicing in seclusion, hoping to refine the [Dayan Five Elements Wheel] as soon as possible...

All four of them have a bright future...

The white tiger, on the other hand, could only lie on the side and watch. However, it was still the most advanced of the four people and the tiger, barely approaching the state of spiritual enlightenment. This record would be difficult to surpass any time soon.

that's it.

On the fourth day of cultivation.

Yu Qiu Ming finally rushed back, bringing along the Qing Ming Valley Master, Xiao Yu Chen.

It was evening.

The location is a cleaned desktop.

Bai Yuan slowly opened her eyes, her blood-red robe fluttering in the wind. She looked at the Qingming Valley Master before her, a faint smile playing on her lips.

"Valley Master Xiao arrived faster than I expected."
