Divine Brilliance - Chapter 241
Chapter 241: Chapter 241 Xue Family Interfering
“I was thinking… who exactly this Zong Hao Zong Yang we’re relying on. It was the 15th out of 19 spirit houses Xuansu Sect…”
Looking at the people in white, Hu Qianqiu shook his head and smiled. However, in the next moment, his eyes squinted and some wariness appeared.
“The leader seems to be Lihu Jichang?”
Qiu Wei’s gaze was also solemn, revealing a sharp and cold intent.
Lihu Jichang, although wasn’t famous because of his war skills, his martial skills was one of the top few people under the ascended realm in Donglin Cloud Continent.
Although he was 8 meridians of the earth chakra level, pretty much 95% of the Xuanwu 9 meridian experts couldn’t face him. His reputation could be only less than that Gang Yezhen. He was also regarded as a person who had the highest chance of getting to the ascended realm in these 10 years.
During these few years, when Jichang challenged experts of the Donglin Cloud Continent, he had fought him before and ended in a draw. At that time, his strength was slightly better but was unable to obtain victory.
In the many years after that, this Lihu Jichang entered the Sect to cultivate but he didn’t know how much his strength has grown.
His eyes jumped and swept towards the west. Another cavalry force entered the city.
It was another 30, dressed in black armor, all of them were above martial ancestor.
The leader was dressed like a monk. He was 7 feet tall and muscular, but when he sat on the horse, he looked like he was flying and gave a celestial like feeling.
“That’s Gang Ye’s junior Brother, Wu Ye! The ruler’s initial prediction was confirmed. These 2 people came from the Daoming Sect which was 2nd out of 19 spiritual houses. I nearly thought those two came from solo cultivators. Sending such elite disciples over… who knows what that Daoming Sect is planning, but it must be huge.”
Still using a mocking tone, Hu Qianqiu’s arms tightly clenched.
Coincidentally, Wuye Zhenren raised his head and looked over. The 2 of them crossed eyes over tens of miles, the moment their gazes crossed, it was like lightning exploding. Their 2 bodies slightly shuddered and at the first moment, they both looked away.
“Wu Ye, a few years of not meeting, his cultivation improved by a lot. I can deal with that fellow. Killing him using the strength of an army wouldn’t be hard. As for Lihu Jichang, Qiu Wei are you confident?”
Although Qiu Wei didn’t say a word, the energy-charged into the wolf tooth stick in his hand had seemed to merge into one with the mountain. His eyes were shining brightly.
Hu Qianqiu immediately smiled, and just looked into the south.
“What we don’t know is who Zong Shiyuan would invite. We guessed who was behind Zong Shi and Zong Yang. We are only unsure about this right pillar general.”
The north and west city gates were personally controlled by Zong Shi and Zong Yang. Only the southwest one was held by Zong Shiyuan’s old forces.
If Zong Shiyuan had help, it would most probably come in from this place.
Then, after who knows how long, a group of cavalry rode their horses through that city gate.
There were just 10 over but the aura they gave off was comparable to Wuye Zhenren. They were dressed in white robes but the sides of their heads that fox ears. Looking out, they looked extremely handsome.
Hu Qianqiu’s eyes instantly constricted to that of a needle, his face turning solemn for the first time.
“It’s the 8 tail sky fox Xue family that the ruler repelled. This Zong Shiyuan deserves to die!”
His voice was filled with killing intent, and his eyes were extremely furious. Before this, he felt that Qiu Wei’s suggestion to take Zong Shiyuan’s life was too much, but now, he wanted to tear this Zong Shiyuan’s corpse into pieces.
However, he could only temporarily suppress such thoughts and try to regain calmness.
The 8 tail sky fox king race Xue family…Although their roots weren’t in the cloud world, and only recently started to develop strength in Donglin Cloud Continent, they only revealed the tip of their strength, and it was enough to go up against the 10 shrines.
Although they had small numbers they were all above martial ancestor, dual cultivators, and their combat strength far exceeding people of the same realm.
The one leading them, roughly 25-26 years old, was a person he recognized.
8 tail fox race Xue Moyan, earth chakra 8 meridian realm. But 3 years ago, they could defeat Ling Fakong and Chai Yuan when they worked together. Their strength was strong and could be said to be deep and indiscernible.
Even he didn’t have much confidence to win.
Frowning and thinking for a moment, Hu Qianqiu smiled helplessly, “Its actually him. Now we can only hope for the prince to rush back to chase them away. With the prince, no matter what methods they try, we can deal with them easily. If not, we have no chance of winning.”
When Qiu Wei heard that, he was shocked. He knew that although Zong Gant is a personal army commander, his skills were only similar to Hu Qianqiu. Along with Zong Yuan who killed trample over the enemy and kill 4 Xuanwu ancestors together.
4 people joining hands along with the strength of an army, it was enough to sweep the Xue family and the Daoming Xuansu sects.
However, within the city, Chai Yuan, Ling Fakong, and Zong Ming Zong Hao were all famous experts.
The strength of both sides was similar. At most, after Hu Qianqiu and he joined hands, their 2 abilities were slightly stronger.
But why did Hu Qianqiu sound so confident?
He even seemed to be filled with anticipation with prince Zong Shou who can’t cultivate.
He didnt bother to think about Hu Qianqiu’s words. Right after Xue Moyan and his men entered the city, a clock ring sounded out on the peak of Gantian Mountain.
Qiu Wei’s eyelids jumped and knew that this was the signal for a meeting at Chongzhen Hall.
He raised his head and looked out at 20 thousand feet away, where the main peak of Gantian Mountain was.
He saw that at the border of the high platform there were tens of people standing.
The one at the head were Zong Ming, Zong Hao as well as Zong Shiyuan and Ling Fakong.
However, what was surprising was that Chai Yuan wasn’t there, making him feel relieved. His cold gaze slightly relaxed. Qiu Wei directly looked past those few people and stopped in the middle at Zong Shi who was in the lead of everyone.
He saw Zong Shi’s coldly smiling as he looked down, his eyes filled with disdain. His eyes looked like Hu Qianqiu’s life was in his hands.
Qiu Wei couldn’t help but grit his teeth, feeling the fury in his chest surging, like a thousand knife shrapnels were charging about with nowhere to go.
That kid, in the past the ruler didn’t kill him because of blood relations. Now, it allowed these bastards to have a chance to rise once more.
The ruler was smart for a long time, only his focus on blood relations caused problems for his descendant.
Following which Hu Qianqiu scoffed, his tone filled with mockery, “Scoff! He’s just trash, what is he feeling delighted about?”
Qiu Wei was startled. Although he hated that Zong Shi, but he had to admit that he was the most talented person out of the Zong Family, a rarely seen talent no weaker than the direct disciple of any sect.
His methods were truly amazing. Just a few days and he managed to merge 3 powers under him. He didn’t solely rely on that Daoming Sect. Using such a talent, he would be able to have potential in this Donglin Cloud Continent.
Why in Hu Qianqiu’s mouth did he become trash?
…
In the night sky, many cavalry in iron armor surged in the dense forest.
Under the moonlight, those talisman armors gave out silver cold light, extremely eye-catching.
Be it the thousand black fox iron cavalry or the Xuan mountain city mysterious armor wind dragon cavalry, their riding skills were exquisite. A full 1800 cavalry surged in the dense forest like it was their back garden, casually galloping.
With spiritual techniques covering, although horse hooves were galloping, there was no sound, not even a speck of single dust.
Ditching the Xuan Mountian elite cavalry that was slightly slower, two days passed already.
On this day, the 1800 iron cavalry under Zong Gang’s leadership directly charged into the forest. 1 man 3 horses directly deep into core land.
Be it Hu Zhongyuan or zong Gang Zong Yuan, they were all familiar with the geography in the area.
Traveling day and night, the original 4 days of the journey was shortened to 2 days.
What made those black fox iron cavalry and the mysterious armor wind dragon cavalry surprised was that this seemingly weak and unable to cultivate prince could keep up.
After 2 days of rapid traveling, his face was extremely relaxed and not changing, but he didn’t fall behind. Who knows where he got such stamina from.
When the frontest group of cavalry finally charged through the dense forest, Zong Gang suddenly raised his hand, causing the thousand cavalry behind pulling the ropes. He looked out for a moment and brought the horse by Zong Shou’s side.
“Prince we have arrived. 20 miles away would be Zhenshan Pass! However, in my eyes, we should rest up and then go around it!”
Zong Shou didn’t commit, moving his wind rider foal forwards, causing the people to be surprised and only follow closely behind.
The plains here was on higher ground so they could look at the Zhenshan Pass opposite.
Zong Shou continued forwards, directly galloping tens of miles away. The giant pass that had clouds and mist swirling around also came into sight.
It was 450 feet huge, standing tall and majestic. In front, there was a giant valley where one couldn’t see the bottom. Like a natural city protection river wrapping around Zhenhai Pass.
In the middle, there was a hundred feet long giant iron bridge that connected both sides. There were a total of 49 iron chains which were as thick as a thigh, tightly fixing on the stone pillars on both sides.
