C75 Infighting in the Door
While flying, Su Chen would occasionally use his star eye to scan the ground. He noticed that there were groups of Night Walkers gathering around some of the Profound Weapon Shop branches. This further proved Su Chen's idea. He casually sent out the warning signal inside the Profound Weapon Shop, reminding these branches to defend.
With the help of the Mass of Stars, the flying boots were full of energy. The flying speed was so fast that it could almost match the speed of a level eight or nine Dark Nether Stage Expert. After more than two hours of flying at full speed, Su Chen finally arrived within the range of the Wuyang.
He glided at a low altitude and landed in a remote place. Then, he spread out his body and rushed towards Profound Weapon Shop. At this time, he did not send out any warning signal. Instead, he dashed into the place where the Fourth Elder lived like a ghost.
"Su Chen, when did you come back?" Su Chen had just gotten within thirty meters of the house when the Fourth Elder's deep voice sounded.
"Fourth Elder, I have an important report." Su Chen urgently called out.
"What is it? Let's talk inside." As the lights lit up, the door of the room silently opened.
Su Chen entered the room and bowed to Fourth Elder, who was wearing a plain shirt. "Fourth Elder, when our team left the underground cemetery, when they were attacked by a large group of Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion members, the team suffered heavy casualties. There are only thirty-eight of them left!"
" What? Not only did the Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion attack us in advance, but they also ate ninety percent of our team in one go? "When he heard this, a trace of shock flashed across Fourth Elder's face.
"Their ambition is much greater than you can imagine. They have planted spies in our team. Originally, they wanted to capture us all in one fell swoop. Fortunately, we found the spies in time and escaped by luck. Otherwise, they would have eaten us without us knowing, and then gathered their forces and waited for an opportunity to attack all the branches in the Wuyang." Su Chen took a deep breath and said.
"Who is the spy?"
"He is Wu Feng!"
"What? He is a high-level Deacon in the trade. How could he be a spy from the Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion? "
"He thought we were going to die. Not only did he admit to us that he is a spy, but he also said that he is a spy of ___. He also told us that his family was in collusion with the Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion, and that he wanted to overthrow us. He wanted to take over the business market in Wuyang Domain. " Su Chen said with a solemn expression.
"They collude with each other from the inside and from the outside. They are really vicious!"
"In this way, not only do we have to deal with the huge Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion, we also have to prevent the Jia family, the biggest family in Wuyang, from stabbing us in the back. This news is really shocking." Fourth Elder frowned.
"Alright, time is of the essence. Follow me to the Elder Hall!" Fourth Elder gritted his teeth and brought Su Chen to the Elder Hall within the Profound Weapon Shop. This place was decorated in a vintage style, giving off a simple aura.
Fourth Elder did not hesitate to ring the Life and Death Bell in the middle of the hall. It was as tall as a person. That large bell did not make any sound, only the extremely high frequency of will waves rippling towards the surroundings.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
In less than 20 breaths of time, human figures tore through the air and arrived. Their faces were filled with a solemn expression.
"Fourth Elder, why did you call us here in the middle of the night?" Sixth Elder was the first to speak. He looked at Su Chen and Fourth Elder with an unfriendly gaze.
"The Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion has begun their attack. The people we sent to the underground cemetery were almost completely wiped out by them. The enemy is trying to overthrow all the branches under our command. The situation is very urgent!" The Fourth Elder couldn't be bothered to argue with the Sixth Elder. He shouted at the crowd.
"What? There is actually such a thing?" When everyone heard this, they were all greatly shocked.
"That's right. Not only do we have to face the challenge of the Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion, we also have to face the infiltration of the Jia family." Su Chen briefly recounted what he had experienced.
"Since we have suffered heavy casualties in the underground cemetery, the mortality rate is over 90%. How can a puny Eighth Grade Yuan like you be unharmed? This can't be a conspiracy, right? " Sixth Elder frowned and asked Su Chen.
Hearing this, everyone looked at Su Chen with a trace of doubt. Fourth Elder sneered and shouted at Sixth Elder, "What do you mean by this? Su Chen came all the way here to report this. You don't believe him? "
"If it was someone else who came to report the news, I naturally have no reason not to believe it. However, this Su Chen had a conflict with the Jia family, and he had even fought with the Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion in the Purple Town. That's why I suspect that he wants to borrow our strength to seek revenge. " Sixth Elder looked at Su Chen and said coldly.
"What a dignified reason. All of you are deliberately avoiding this urgent situation with just a groundless reason. Could it be that you are also a member of Jia family?" Su Chen asked back.
"You brat, stop slandering me. You, a puny Deacon, dare to be rude in front of me. Believe it or not, I will teach you a lesson." Sixth Elder shouted furiously.
"What an imposing manner! A powerful enemy is about to attack. Why don't you think of retreating? Instead, you want to show off your power and prestige as a Great Elder? This is simply too disappointing. Anyway, I have already done what I needed to do. What I am going to do next will be up to you to decide!" Su Chen sneered, turned around, and was about to leave.
"Stop right there. It won't be so easy for you to leave after you have bewitched the crowd." Sixth Elder sneered, then he waved out a palm the size of a round table, and slapped towards Su Chen.
Master Luo was about to attack when he was stopped by Fourth Elder. Although Su Chen was one of his subordinates, he still couldn't see through this young man. Especially after he came back from the underground cemetery, his physique was as tight as iron. His Qi was as vast as a dragon, and his entire body was emitting a mysterious aura.
Therefore, he wanted to use Sixth Elder's hand to test his bottom line of strength. He knew that Sixth Elder wouldn't dare to kill Su Chen in front of so many people.
"Humph! You are old and muddle-headed, and your thinking is slow. You don't want to save the foundation of Profound Weapon Shop. Instead, you are haggling with me here. You are simply acting recklessly as an elder of ___." Su Chen returned to report the news, but he was misunderstood. He wanted to leave, but was attacked again. This caused him to be burning with anger, and his anger soared to the heavens.
"Get lost, Sky Breaking Strike!"
Su Chen shouted out loudly. His fist was like a black flood dragon that was spinning in the air, causing bursts of lightning to explode in the sky. That fist also became the size of a round table, and collided with Sixth Elder's palm.
With a loud bang, the palm and fist shattered at the same time, and turned into pure energy that dissipated into the air. Sixth Elder's body only swayed slightly, but Su Chen was forced to retreat three steps in a row.
"Didn't you want to know how I escaped from the group of enemies? Let me tell you now."
Su Chen was completely enraged by Sixth Elder's action. With a sneer, he took out his Netherworld Fire and burned it towards Su Chen. The faint demonic flame seemed to have come from hell. It would never extinguish. It burned everything, and among it, there were tens of millions of demonic shadows. And here it comes. It gave people the feeling that a demonic wind was blowing on their faces.
"Impudent brat, you actually dare to make a move against me, Elder! Scram back!" In his anger, Sixth Elder also took out his Wood Elemental Fire. The jade-green flame was filled with a peaceful and peaceful feeling, with ten thousand trees growing within it. The grass was lush, the flowers were everywhere, and the snakes and vines were rolling. Those plants pierced into the Netherworld Fire. They could actually grow by devouring the flame.
The trees grew into towering trees that towered into the sky; the thousands of snakes and vines became as thick as water buckets. The flowers became as big as waterwheels; the spirit stamens in the center grew into pearls; the grass grew crazily to the height of a man. It looked like a blue ocean.
"Kid, your flame is of a higher level, and your flame power is stronger. But you can't use its power, so you might as well give it to me. " Sixth Elder laughed evilly and sent out ten thousand fiery vines into Su Chen's body. He actually wanted to devour its Dark Nether Fire source in one go.
"In your dreams! Break the vines and destroy the wood essence!"
Su Chen took a deep breath and urged the Stardragon to devour the ten thousand fire vines in one go. The images of the demonic devils in the Netherworld Fire attached themselves to the fire plants and exploded one after another. Flames rose one after another. They exploded all the flowers, trees, grass, and vines.
The power of the explosion spread to the Sixth Elder's palm that was controlling the flames, causing his face to turn pale as he hurriedly retracted his hand. However, even so, the explosion of the fire still caused the back of his hand to be charred black.
When they saw this scene, everyone could not help but be secretly shocked. Especially the Second Elder, Third Elder, Master Luo, Great Master Huang and the others who had yet to speak. Their eyes were filled with disbelief as they looked at Su Chen.
"Bastard, you are just a puny Deacon, how dare you attack an elder? You can die now." Sixth Elder pointed at Su Chen. A hellish soul slowly rose from his body.
"Guo Sen, are you going to use the strength of a Heavenly Soul Stage to deal with a reckless disciple?" After sensing his Qi, Master Luo couldn't help but take two steps forward.
"Elder Guo Sen, the reason Su Chen attacked you was because he wanted to prove his ability to break through from the enemy's group. I hope you don't misunderstand." Fourth Elder sneered and said to Sixth Elder.
"I didn't misunderstand. It was you who misunderstood." Sixth Elder shouted with a face full of killing intent.
"The news brought back by Su Chen is extremely important. We have to come up with a plan to deal with this. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable. I hope you won't use your emotions." Second Elder spoke slowly.
"I don't believe what Su Chen said. Even if we do act... I have to kill this traitor who attacked me first. Otherwise, I won't agree to listen to his side of the story and start a war." Sixth Elder shouted hysterically.
"Guo Sen, are you threatening me?" Second Elder frowned and shouted.
"So what if I'm threatening you? This brat actually dared to attack me. If I don't kill him, where is my dignity as an elder?" While Sixth Elder was roaring, Third Elder and Great Master Huang stood silently behind him.
"Guo Sen, as an elder, I hope you can take care of the overall situation." Second Elder's expression became even gloomier. With a cold snort, he made a firm and forceful sound.
"Second Elder, although you are ranked in the top, you do not have the decision-making power of the Great Elder. Even if you have a different opinion, you won't be able to shake my position as an Elder. Even if you use the method of raising your hands to vote, you won't have as many people as us. So you won't be able to control my will at all. " Sixth Elder looked at Second Elder with a malevolent expression.
" You... " The Second Elder's expression changed upon hearing this.
"What? Is there something wrong with what I said?" Sixth Elder took a mile and shouted.
"Of course you're wrong!"
Just as the elders were engaged in internal strife, an old voice was heard. Following that, a thin figure appeared out of thin air in front of everyone. Behind him stood a gentle and elegant young man.
This thin figure was extremely ordinary. He had messy stubble and a slightly yellow face, just like an ordinary person. Only his narrowed eyes flashed with lightning from time to time.
The black robe on this person's body was as hard as steel. It could not be blown by the wind or thunder, and it was filled with a fierce aura. Although the figure in his clothes was skinny, it gave people a feeling that he was extremely tall, like a towering mountain.1
"Great Elder!"
After seeing this person, the dispute between the crowd instantly turned into nothingness. The Sixth Elder's figure trembled, and his face turned pale. Everyone lowered their heads slightly and bowed toward this person.
