Chapter 269 - begs you to attack once
Chapter 269: begs you to attack once
Wang Qian’an and Bai Zhijing dodged.
Caught off guard, an elder behind them was sent flying.
When Elder Mi struck, Bai Zhijing and Wang Qian’an attacked at the same time.
“I’ve been prepared for this move of yours! Profound Void Sword Technique!”
“Heavenly Palm!”
Boom!
The vital energy exploded in the back mountain.
After the palm strike, Elder Mi hurriedly retreated.
But it was too late.
Bai Zhijing’s sword slashed at him, followed closely by Wang Qian’an’s palm strike.
He couldn’t escape!
He couldn’t dodge, either.
There were more than ten elders behind him.
It was a dead end.
He couldn’t be captured alive.
Elder Mi seemed to have made a great decision. Suddenly, he charged toward Bai Zhijing, ready to die.
“The third move of the Profound Void Sword Technique!”
Bai Zhijing’s gaze stilled, and the sword move changed.
Swoosh!
Pu!
Then, blood splayed.
Elder Mi was torn into pieces by the sword light.
“This…”
“He committed suicide?”
All the elders turned to look at Bai Zhijing.
Bai Zhijing walked into the cave.
The other elders looked at the pieces of flesh on the ground and followed her.
They used their identity tokens to break the formations one by one and soon arrived at an altar.
It was an ordinary altar with moss growing on it.
Everything was ordinary.
There was a corpse lying next to the altar.
“Elder Mi!”
“That was…”
“A blue-eyed insect ape!” Wang Qian’an said solemnly.
If that was the case, what Bai Zhijing said was true.
Not only did they have demon spies among them, but there were also elders and disciples transformed by green-eyed insect apes.
How could they win the battle?
“Elder Bai, please ask the Patriarch to come out!” The Cultivation Impartation Elder said.
In this situation, the only solution was to ask the Patriarch to come out and destroy the spies and green-eyed insect apes.
“This… Okay!”
Bai Zhijing frowned, but it seemed to be the only solution to the current crisis.
She regretted for her impatience.
She hoped that the Patriarch was still at the back of the mountain.
Bai Zhijing immediately rushed out of the cave abode and headed straight for the back of the mountain.
Outside the main hall, a few elders suddenly appeared at the door.
“Sect Master, Elder Bai and Elder Qin, you’ve returned.”
A few disciples who stayed behind to guard the hall said respectfully.
“Yeah!”
Wang Qian’an snorted, and the elders entered the main hall to search for something.
The disciples watched curiously.
In the deserted temple in the back mountain, Li Mu was examining the bronze coffin.
The runes on it were like mathematical problems, obscure and difficult to understand, but seemed to contain the Heavenly Dao’s rules.
Even though he had the basic knowledge of array runes, he could only recognize these runes.
“It’s over! How can I understand this? It’s impossible.”
Li Mu rubbed his temples.
It was as if he had returned to his school time when he studied calculus and functions.
He could only recognize a portion of the numbers and symbols. He didn’t understand any of the logic within.
He didn’t know where to begin, but he couldn’t bear to throw it away.
“Even Xu Xiao would have a headache if he saw this! I’ll read it through first!”
He took out several jade slips about array formations from the system space and began to study them.
At the edge of the forbidden area at the back of the mountain, Bai Zhijing walked around the forbidden area twice.
She did not see that figure.
She became anxious.
“The Patriarch is gone! What should we do?”
Tears welled up in her eyes and then fell down.
“I missed him because of my impatience.”
If she couldn’t find the Patriarch, she would be the eternal sinner of the Mysterious Sky Sect.
“Where are you? The Mysterious Sky Sect is about to be destroyed, why don’t you come out?”
She hated herself and hated that mysterious patriarch.
She cried for a while and then forced herself to calm down.
If cursing was useful, the demons would have been cursed to death long ago.
Finally she calmed down.
“Why did the Patriarch take the bronze coffin?”
Even though she couldn’t find the Patriarch, she could find the bronze coffin, right?
She released her spiritual sense and searched the back mountain bit by bit.
Li Mu stared at the symbols and compared them bit by bit.
First, he must understand all the symbols on the bronze coffin. As for the arrangement and pattern, he could only leave them for later.
“This symbol and that one repel each other. How can they be put together?”
There must be some logic that he couldn’t understand yet.
He took out a piece of paper and copied the two runes.
Swoosh!
Suddenly, the light in the temple dimmed.
Li Mu put the bronze coffin back into his storage space and turned his head to look at the woman blocking the door.
Bai Zhijing, Elder Bai?
The usually solemn woman was staring at him silently.
Li Mu was unnerved by her stare!
Her expression was almost the same as that of Xu Fang and Liu Xiu when they looked at him.
Bai Zhijing stared at the young man in front of her.
That’s right, it was him.
It was him who made me cry for so long.
She was so happy, feeling like a person who had found a boat after being lost in the vast see.
Li Mu felt uncomfortable under this gaze and could not help but shiver. “What’s the matter?”
“Aren’t you going to take care of the Mysterious Sky Sect?”
Li Mu replied in confusion, “What?”
“Uh… are you going to watch as the Mysterious Sky Sect is destroyed?”
“It’s not destroyed yet,” Li Mu said.
It was simply baffling.
The demons had not attacked, so how could he help?
“It’ll be too late when the demons attack. The spies have sold them all the sect secrets.”
Bai Zhijing was anxious.
What did he mean?
By the time the sect was destroyed, it would be too late.
When that happened, who knows how many demon warriors would target the Patriarch!
He probably wouldn’t even have a chance to stop them.
“Oh, the spies! Law Enforcement Elder Huang Baichuan and the Sect Protecting Elder Qin Ming are both spies. Just capture them and all the disciples who are close to them,” Li Mu said indifferently.
“What!”
Bai Zhijing’s pupils constricted, and then her entire body trembled.
“How can the two of them be spies of the demon race? The two elders have worked hard for the sect for hundreds of years. Impossible!”
She didn’t believe it!
Or rather, she was terrified.
If the two elders were spies, then the demon race knew everything about the sect, including the sect secrets and the defense system.
She didn’t dare to think about it!
Many people would be involved in it.
They had worked in the sect for hundreds of years. If Law Enforcement Elder Huang Baichuan was a spy, he’d have used his position to suppress the sect’s geniuses and promote his own people.
“That’s the truth!”
Li Mu shook his head. In fact, when he found out that the two elders were traitors, he was also shocked.
The Mysterious Sky Sect was rotten from the core.
If he killed the two elders, the sect would treat him as an enemy.
“Patriarch, can you show yourself and explain it to the elders? I’m afraid that they won’t believe me!”
Bai Zhijing thought for a long time.
She believed it.
But what about the other elders?
Even if the other elders believed it, who could do it?
Who could be a match for the two elders?
Li Mu was stunned.
Patriarch?
Bai Zhijing also mistook him for the Patriarch of the Mysterious Sky Sect?
Forget it!
He had obtained so many resources from the Mysterious Sky Sect, so what if he was misunderstood once?
Li Mu thought for a moment and said, “I can help you get rid of the blue-eyed insect apes hidden in the sect. As for the rest, you must do it yourselves!”
“Can’t you help us some more?”
Bai Zhijing stomped her foot and said coquettishly.
She had never acted coquettishly to a stranger in her entire life.
Li Mu ignored her and released a stream of sword qi.
In the main hall, the fake Wang Qian’an and Bai Zhijing searched the main hall and put a large number of jade slips into their pockets.
Some disciples watched them in stupefaction.
“Are the sect master and elders preparing to flee?”
