At the valley, Wen Qingxuan turned pale as she looked at the people who were standing on the hillside in front of her. They folded their arms and looked down at Wen Qingxuan and her team.
The one standing at the forefront was a burly looking man. He had a scar on his face that made him look hideous. He emitted an ominous aura, and he looked like a malevolent spirit from Indian mythology. Judging from his spiritual energy fluctuation, he must have been a Complete Earthly Sovereign.
“Our dear friends from the Wen’s, why are you so unreasonable? Is it not a good idea that we prosper together?” The burly man smiled as he looked at Wen Qingxuan and her team and said, “I am not out to get any information from you. I merely want to partner with you. Would it not be easier to get our hands on the Relic Inheritance if we work together?”
Wen Qingxuan looked angrily at him and his team who were obstructing them. This team was formed by the Demon Slayers, and Dong Shan was their leader. Dong Shan was not only a Complete Upper Earthly Sovereign, but he was also a Middle Rank Demon Slayer. It had been rumored that his Demons-Slayed points were close to that of the High Rank Demon Slayers. This was amazing, as one had to go through countless battles in order to obtain that amount of Demons-Slayed points.
When they were in the Holy Gulf City, they already knew that Wen Qingxuan and her team possessed information about the Heavenly Sovereign Relic. They wanted to collaborate with Wen Qingxuan and her team but had been rejected. As they were wary of Nanny He, they had not acted rashly at the time. They had not expected to bump into Wen Qingxuan and her team again in the Ancient Holy Gulf…
“Ha, collaborate? We would be asking for trouble if we did that.” Wen Qingxuan sneered. Dong Shan and his team looked ruthless. If Wen Qingxuan and her team collaborated with them, Dong Shang and his team would only take care of their own interests.
“Moreover…” Wen Qingxuan’s voice suddenly turned cold. “You already knew that we possessed the information when we were in the Holy Gulf City. Now that we meet again in the Ancient Holy Gulf, I think that it is too much of a coincidence!”
Dong Shan squinted and said with a smile, “Oh?”
Wen Qingxuan replied coldly, “Whatever information that we possess regarding the Heavenly Sovereign Relic, Wu Jia from the Gobi Desert knows as well, and he has brought his team into the Ancient Holy Gulf. I believe… you must have obtained the information about us and our whereabouts from him. Am I right?”
“Wu Jia?” The expressions of Wen Ziyu and the rest, who were standing beside Wen Qingxuan, changed when they heard this name, and they were fuming with anger. Wu Jia was too despicable. In order to keep the Heavenly Sovereign Relic to himself and his team, he must have released the information about Wen Qingxuan and her team to the Demon Slayers in exchange for a reward.
“People like you are so greedy. You may have already ganged up with Wu Jia. If we collaborate with you, you will likely betray us. We do not want that kind of partner,” Wen Qingxuan said coldly.
Light flashed in Dong Shan’s eyes. He immediately nodded with a smile and said sincerely, “You must be mistaken. We have no idea who Wu Jia is.”
Wen Qingxuan looked down and said flatly, “It does not matter whether there is any misunderstanding. We have no intention of collaborating with you, so there is no point in carrying on this conversation.”
A vicious look flashed in Dong Shan’s eyes. He then smiled and asked, “Miss Wen, do you not think that you have gone a little too far? Is it not better to make more friends rather than enemies?”
As Dong Shan was talking, the eight people who were standing behind him took a step forward. They fixed their gazes on Wen Qingxuan and her team, and they were filled with an ominous aura. They were apparently up to no good.
“Oh? Are you setting yourselves against my clan?” Wen Qingxuan asked when she saw their actions, and her face turned even colder.
“Although we dare not trifle with your clan, at the least for now, there is no Heavenly Sovereign around to help you. Am I not right?” Dong Shan said with a smile.
There were about six people on Wen Qinguan’s team. Wen Ziyu was a Half Step to Complete Earthly Sovereign, and he was the most powerful person on the team. The rest of them were Upper Earthly Sovereigns, with Wen Qingxuan at the Lower Earthly Sovereign-level. Dong Shan and his team would have no problem defeating Wen Qingxuan and her team.
“So, I hope that Miss Wen will re-consider my proposal…” Dong Shan said, smiling. The eight people who were behind him slowly spread out to surround Wen Qingxuan and her team. They were trying to force them to oblige.
“We have already found a team to collaborate with, so I think you should just give up the idea!” Wen Qingxuan said. She looked at the strength of Dong Shan’s team and showed no sign of fear.
“Oh?” Dong Shan raised his brows and said with a smile, “Why do you want to partner with those useless teams? If you partner with us, it will be a win-win situation for both of us.”
Wen Qingxuan found it pointless to continue the conversation with Dong Shan. She looked at Wen Ziyu and the rest of her team members and nodded. A killing intent radiated from her eyes. They had to fight Dong Shan and his team, since they refused to accept her decision not to collaborate with them.
When Wen Ziyu caught Wen Qingxuan’s eyes, he took a step forward. Vast majestic spiritual energy fluctuations gathered in his body like a windstorm and swirled out.
“Sigh. We are so kind in offering to partner with you, but you do not appreciate it at all.” Dong Shan squinted, and his face suddenly turned vicious. He stepped forth, and the horrifying aura of a Complete Earthly Sovereign burst out from his body. When this happened, the ground started to quake.
“Since you do not know what is good for you, do not blame us for being ruthless!” Dong Shan lifted up his hand and said with a vicious smile, “Kill them!”
Bang!
The eight people behind him, who were ready to act, suddenly shot out.
“Now!” Wen Qingxuan shouted. She formed a seal with her hands, and spiritual energy burst out from her body.
A voice suddenly resounded in the area just as the two teams were about to get into a fight. “Hohoho, you are truly despicable. How can you force others to partner with you? Why can’t you let it go?”
Swish!
As the two teams were about to dash out, they stopped when they heard the voice. Even Dong Shan was taken aback. He lifted up his head and shouted, “Who is that?”
Someone replied, “We are the useless team that you were talking about earlier!” He broke out in laughter, and a few people shot out from the forest nearby and landed in the valley. There were four of them, and they were none other than Mu Chen, Luo Li, Ling Xi, and Long Xiang.
“Mu Chen? Luo Li!” When Wen Qingxuan saw that it was Mu Chen and his team, she was taken aback for a moment before she broke out into joy.
“Ha, where did these four useless bums come from? Get out of my sight!” The two Demon Slayers who were nearer to Mu Chen and his team shouted and threw out a blow. Violent spiritual energy swirled out like a stream and blasted toward Mu Chen.
The two of them were Upper Earthly Sovereigns. Apparently, they had joined forces to attack Mu Chen, as they wanted to kill him at a lightning speed to inflict fear on the rest of them.
“How dare you attack our Little Lord!” The moment they struck, Long Xiang suddenly appeared before them. He let out an evil smile and punched out. The loud cries of a dragon and elephant resounded, and fists that possessed the power of the dragon and elephant hit hard against the fists of the two Upper Earthly Sovereigns.
Bang!
The facial expressions of the two Upper Earthly Sovereigns changed when the fists collided. Their faces turned red, and they spat out mouthfuls of fresh blood. Even their arms were smashed by the horrifying power. Their bodies shot backward in a sorry state, and they created long scratches in the ground.
“You have gone overboard!” When Dong Shan saw that his two men had been seriously injured, his eyes turned cold. He threw out a blow, and vast spiritual energy spurted out like a volcano.
“Mountain Wrecking Divine Palm!”
The moment Dong Shan struck, he displayed his amazing power of a Complete Earthly Sovereign. He smashed the mountain with his blow, and large cracks started to appear in the entire valley.
The wind blast of his palm swirled out and blasted toward Mu Chen and his team. Ling Xi lifted up her hand, and spiritual light surged at the center of her palm. In the twinkle of an eye, a large spiritual array took shape in front of them. The spiritual array acted like a light shield to protect Mu Chen and his team. Although the wind blast of the palm was powerful, it was unable to break through the shield.
“Is she an Advance Spiritual Array Ancestral Master?” When Dong Shan saw the spiritual array, he squinted. Only an Advance Spiritual Array Ancestral Master could easily fend off his attack with a spiritual array.
Although Dong Shan was powerful, he was cautious when dealing with an Advance Spiritual Array Ancestral Master. Light glittered in his eyes, and he looked at the forest that was behind Wen Qingxuan and her team. Some of his team members were hiding in the forest, and if they joined forces with him to deal with Mu Chen and his team, they would have an edge over them.
“Are you looking for your team members? Do not waste your time. We have already killed them,” Mu Chen said with a smile just as Dong Shan was about to call out to them.
Earlier, when Mu Chen and his team saw that Wen Qingxuan and her team were in trouble, they had secretly gone behind Dong Shan’s team while they were hiding in the forest and killed them.
When Dong Shan heard it, his face instantly darkened. He stared at Mu Chen with a petrifying look and said, “I never expected to be caught in such a situation. All right. I shall remember you for this. You can rest assured that I will chop off your head and offer it to my men as a sacrifice the next time I see you!” Having said that, he waved his sleeve and shot out without waiting for a reply from Mu Chen.
His team members immediately caught up with him, and in a short while, all of them disappeared into the mountains.
Mu Chen was taken aback when he saw that Dong Shan had retreated without a second thought. The spiritual seal that was glittering in his hands then started to dissipate. If Dong Shan and his team had waited any longer, once Mu Chen had set up his spiritual array, they could forget about leaving the place alive.
Apparently, Mu Chen had underestimated Dong Shan. He was indeed quick to pick up any abnormality. The moment he sensed that something was amiss, he immediately retreated.
Mu Chen squinted as he watched Dong Shan and his team disappear into the mountains, and he muttered to himself, “This guy is so decisive… the next time if I see him, I must kill him…”
