Chapter 584 - 584 The King's Attack
584 The King’s Attack
Many experts from the Five-Colored Mountain stood there and looked down at Jiang Ming and the others.
Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows and smiled.
“Everyone, we are from the Flowerfruit Sect. We are here for one thing.”
The elder of the Five-Colored Mountain was startled and asked curiously, “What is it?”
“The Five-Colored Obsidian Stones.”
Jiang Ming spoke in a straightforward manner.
The entire place was deathly silent.
The expressions of the experts from the Five-Colored Mountain changed drastically. They never expected Jiang Ming to say such words.
“The Five-Colored Obsidian Stones? Sir, are you joking?”
“Of course not.” Jiang Ming smiled and said, “We came here for the Five-Colored Obsidian Stones, and we want all of them!”
Three seconds later, a voice resounded around them, causing everyone’s expressions to change drastically.
“How dare you trick us? You’re courting death!”
“What Flowerfruit Sect? A small force that I’ve never even heard of dares to provoke the Five-Colored Mountain? Ridiculous!”
At this moment, an elder of the Five-Colored Mountain stood up slowly. His eyes were as cold as a knife as he approached.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
As the sound of collisions erupted again and again, the aura of the elder of the Five-Colored Mountain soared to an extremely high level, and he condensed a huge sword to attack them!
Clang!
After a series of clanging sounds, the elder of the Five-Colored Mountain instantly increased his speed. The speed of the giant sword also increased in the wind. With a whoosh, it cut down a huge rock.
Gravel flew everywhere, and the earth trembled!
The elder of the Five-Colored Mountain said coldly, “Let me give you a piece of advice. Don’t continue to act crazy. Otherwise, your fate will be the same as this huge rock!”
The elder did not show them any respect and was about to fight them.
Wu Ming took a step forward and stared at him with a smile.
“Are you sure you want to fight?”
His aura of a cultivator at the mid-stage of the Soul Formation Realm was revealed, and the expression of the elder at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm instantly changed.
Elder Tian also walked out.
“If you want to fight, I can join in as well.”
The aura of a Deity Transformation Realm cultivator spread out.
The elder of the Five-Colored Mountain was speechless.
Jiang Ming watched all of this with a smile on his face, and then he said coldly, “If you want to continue fighting, the Flowerfruit Sect can fight with you.”
Thump!
The elder guarding the mountain directly knelt down and said with tears streaming down his cheeks, “Sir, I didn’t know that I had someone to offend you. I’m at fault!”
He slapped himself a few times, which stunned Jiang Ming.
At this time, Jiang Ming took a few steps forward and stared at something opposite them.
“There’s another group of people?”
Thump!
Another group of people knelt down. This time, they were from the royal family of this kingdom.
“Sir, feel free to mine this place. We will explain this to the royal court ourselves!”
The general in the lead did not dare argue against Jiang Ming.
Not only was there a Soul Formation Realm cultivator by his side, but there was a Deity Transformation Realm cultivator by his side as well!
He was probably a big shot from some holy land!
Jiang Ming pinched his nose. He finally understood why Gu Chi was happy when he brought a group of subordinates to bully people everywhere. He did not lift a finger but relied on sheer power to suppress people… It was not a bad feeling!
The Five-Colored Mountain and the other forces quickly stepped back, but they did not completely retreat. This matter was quickly reported to their king.
“The Flowerfruit Sect? Isn’t that a force that has just risen within the Feather Kingdom? Why would they target the Five Colored Mountain? And their goal is to excavate the Five-Colored Obsidian Stones?”
The king was confused.
The Five-Colored Obsidian Stone was only a high-grade material for making decorations. It did not have many other uses.
How could an ore of this level be worth the Flowerfruit Sect crossing the border?
The king scratched the back of his head. At this moment, a figure arrived.
“Your Majesty, there was news just now that the Feather King sent someone to discuss the matter of the Flowerfruit Sect.”
The king’s face sank.
“The Feather Kingdom is currently having internal issues. However, despite this, the Feather King came to us to discuss the matter of the Flowerfruit Sect. It is very likely that he wants our kingdom to send troops to help the Feather Kingdom deal with the Flowerfruit sect.”
“Is this guy crazy? There are Soul Formation Realm and Deity Transformation Realm cultivators in the Flowerfruit Sect. Judging from the current strength of the Flowerfruit Sect, they are not much weaker than the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven. The royal family of the Feather Kingdom and the royal court are unable to defeat the Flowerfruit Sect, so they want to drag us down with them?”
The king cursed. He never thought that the Feather King would be so unethical.
“He didn’t send anyone here, but what should we do if the Flowerfruit Sect’s master misunderstood us?”
The king paced around the main hall for a long time before making a decision.
“Men, capture the messenger of the Feather Kingdom and send him to the Flowerfruit Sect!”
The ministers were shocked.
“Your Majesty, why are you doing this? Once we do this, we will offend the royal family of the Feather Kingdom!”
“That’s right, our kingdom is not as strong as the Feather Kingdom. Once the war starts, our kingdom will definitely be affected.”
All of them were people who disagreed with this.
The king’s expression was uncertain. After a long time, he suddenly roared, “All of you shut your mouths! Do you think I’m stupid? Many of you have accepted bribes from the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven and other the Feather Kingdom forces or have become spies planted by the Feather Kingdom in our kingdom! In the past, I could turn a blind eye but not anymore! The situation in the Feather Kingdom is extremely chaotic. The force led by the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven is about to start a war with the Feather Kingdom! If you want our kingdom to support them, that’s wishful thinking! I refuse to stand on either side. I will only stand on the Flowerfruit Sect’s side!”
As these words rang out, the entire place fell silent.
Everyone widened their eyes in disbelief.
Their king was probably crazy!
He did not stand on the side of the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven and the Mo family, nor did he stand on the side of the Feather Kingdom’s royal court. Instead, he strongly supported a rising star like the Flowerfruit Sect! Why?
“Your Majesty, you must not! The master of the Flowerfruit Sect, Ning Caichen, has a grudge against the Divine Eye Sect and many other forces. He was also incompatible with the Mo family. Now that we can confirm that the Flowerfruit Sect and the royal court of the Feather Kingdom are also enemies, the Flowerfruit Sect will be enemies with everyone in the Feather Kingdom! If we support the Flowerfruit Sect now, we will be making enemies with the sects and aristocratic families that oppose the Flowerfruit Sect. We will definitely be attacked by the Feather Kingdom. Once the war starts, our kingdom will definitely not be able to withstand the joint attack of the two major groups of the Feather Kingdom!”
