Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 1547
Chapter 1547 Mysterious Appearance
The sudden defeat in the first round cast a shadow over the entire Dragon Talisman Sect. Everyone felt that a huge rock was pressing down on their hearts, and they could not even breathe.
If even Lu Mingyu lost, then how would the next round of the competition proceed? If he lost another round, there was basically no hope of winning Huangji Sect.
On the other side, Huangji Sect won the first round and began to cheer as if he had won the final victory.
“Zhu Xiuyuan, I advise you to give up obediently. If you continue to compete, you will be humiliating yourself. I heard that Lu Mingyu is your best genius.”
Wei Desheng let out a loud laugh, carrying a mocking expression as he angrily glared at the Dragon Talisman Sect.
“It’s not over yet. Isn’t it a bit too early to give up now?”
Although Zhu Xiuyuan did not accept it, his heart was beginning to show signs of anxiety. Wei Desheng was right. Lu Mingyu was the best genius, and even he had lost. What should he do in the next match?
“Conduct the second round!”
Fearless said. In order to shorten the time, he had to finish all five rounds before nightfall.
“I’ll go first!”
Another person walked out of the Dragon Talisman Sect. When he walked out, a strange smile appeared on his lips.
“Let me, Hong Lou Ning, experience your Huangji Sect!”
The man carelessly stood in front of the table and pointed at Huangji Sect, his face full of provocation.
“Are you afraid? Let me do it!”
A person named Yang Tianzhi also jumped out from Huangji Sect’s side. His Talisman Dao cultivation was no longer below Bai Siyuan’s.
After each of them stood still, without any hesitation, they began to rapidly draw. However, something strange happened. Hong Lou Ning actually randomly graffiti on the talisman paper. What was going on?
This kind of thing caused everyone to be shocked and stand up one after another. Could it be that Hong Lou Ning didn’t know how to carve virtual symbols?
“Hong Lou Ning, what are you doing!”
Zhu Xiuyuan suddenly shouted loudly, causing many people present to feel pain in their eardrums. Ye Feng was no exception. The powerful Qi energy directly affected everyone.
“Zhu Xiuyuan, why are you in such a hurry? The competition isn’t over yet. What are you yelling about?”
Wei Desheng said. An invisible force neutralized Zhu Xiuyuan’s Qi. The two Immortal Kings collided invisibly.
Under the gazes of countless people, Hong Lou Ning’s Heavenly Talisman carving had ended. The painting on it was in a mess. This was clearly not a Heavenly Talisman, it was clearly a landscape painting, and it was extremely messy.
Ten breaths later, Yang Tianzhi’s Heavenly Talisman was finished. Although no talisman shadow had appeared, its grade was definitely not weaker than Lu Mingyu’s.
Zhu Xiuyuan stared at Hong Lou Ning with a murderous gaze. The latter was so scared that he shrank his neck and hid in Huangji Sect’s direction.
This sudden situation caught everyone off guard. Hong Lou Ning was actually bribed by Huangji Sect and deliberately lost to Huangji Sect in this round.
“Good good good, you actually became a traitor.”
Even if Zhu Xiuyuan was stupid, he knew what had happened. Hong Lou Ning had volunteered just now. It turned out that it was Huangji Sect who had planted the insider. He had already been bribed.
“Vice Sect Leader, I’m sorry. I’m heading high. The Dragon Talisman Sect is about to perish. I’m just looking for a good backer in advance.”
Hong Lou Ning was still a little ashamed, but now that things had come to this point, there was no room for regret. If the Dragon Talisman Sect lost, it would inevitably be eroded. It would be better to submit to Huangji Sect in advance.
Even though the traitor’s reputation was not good, it was still much better than slowly dying on his own.
“Very good, the Dragon Talisman Sect has worked hard to nurture you for twenty years, but you actually turned against me at the critical moment.”
No matter how good Zhu Xiuyuan’s calmness was, he couldn’t hold on. He spat out a mouthful of blood. He didn’t lose to Huangji Sect, but he lost to his own sect’s people and to a traitor.
No one would have thought that someone would start to pity the Dragon Talisman Sect for such an episode. No one had the strength to return to the sky now. There was no need to judge in the second round. Naturally, Huangji Sect would win.
In the last three rounds, it was unknown if there were any traitors among these three. If a traitor appeared, the Dragon Talisman Sect would completely lose this year’s Talisman Dao Tournament.
Zhu Xiuyuan wanted to kill Hong Louning with a single palm strike, but unfortunately, the opponent had been hiding behind Huangji Sect. With several Immortal Kings protecting him, he was no longer able to make a move.
Looking at the remaining three, a tyrannical pressure appeared. How could the might of an Immortal King be endured by a Celestial Immortal? Feeling the stinging pain in their souls, their eyes flickered endlessly.
This made Zhu Xiuyuan even angrier. Obviously, the three of them had spies as well. Otherwise, their eyes wouldn’t wander and they wouldn’t dare to face him head-on.
Unfortunately, these people were already the best ordinary disciples selected by the Dragon Talisman Sect. They could no longer find anyone better than them. In addition, they had lost two rounds in a row. As long as they lost another round, this year’s Talisman Dao Tournament would be completely over.
If it was just the end of the Talisman Dao Tournament, it didn’t matter. This involved the fate of the entire Dragon Talisman Gate General. He didn’t expect that Huangji Sect would be so despicable. He had first made a move on the treaty and bribed his opponent.
The Dragon Talisman Sect was intertwined, not giving them any chance at all. From the moment the treaty was signed, the Dragon Talisman Sect was destined to have no chance to turn the tables.
“Zhu Xiuyuan, what are you hesitating about? Hurry up and proceed to the third round.”
Wei Desheng had a mocking expression on his face. Today, he was finally able to completely swallow up the Dragon Talisman Sect. Without the Desolate Lian ore vein, the Dragon Talisman Sect would only slowly decline in the future.
As long as Huangji Sect threw out some olive branches, many people would naturally join Huangji Sect and leave the Dragon Talisman Sect.
At that time, even without Huangji Sect’s help, the Dragon Talisman Sect would collapse and completely disappear. Huangji Sect’s move could be said to be ruthless.
At this moment, Huangji Sect couldn’t wait any longer, hoping to quickly end the match and ruthlessly humiliate his opponent.
Zhu Xiuyuan waved his hand and the three people he had arranged were replaced. Of the three of them, there must be someone who was a mole. If he sent them on the stage, the Dragon Talisman Sect would have no chance of winning.
“Which one of you is willing to fight!”
Zhu Xiuyuan asked a dozen other people. These people were rank nine Celestial Immortals, but most of them were rank eight. In terms of talismans, they were far inferior to Lu Mingyu.
More than a dozen people lowered their heads and fell silent. They didn’t want to be the last straw. If they lost, the match would be over. Therefore, no one was willing to play in the third match.
Looking at the dozens of people who were silent, Zhu Xiuyuan felt a wave of powerlessness for the first time. A feeling of powerlessness rose from the bottom of his heart. A dignified Seventh Grade Immortal King actually didn’t have any weapons to use.
Seeing that the Dragon Talisman Sect was useless, Huangji Sect continuously laughed, causing the disciples of the Dragon Talisman Sect to glared at each other in anger, but they were helpless.
“Let me do it!”
The scene was strangely calm. The Seventh Grade Immortal King was enraged. Whoever dared to speak, even the spectators kept their mouths shut. They didn’t even dare to breathe heavily.
At this moment, a clear voice came from the viewing area, not from the disciples of the Dragon Talisman Sect.
Soon, a silhouette slowly walked out. It was only in its twenties. It was handsome and had bright eyes. Its body wasn’t very tall, but it stood tall and arrogant.
He wore an extremely ordinary dress with a towering nose bridge. Apart from his slightly outstanding appearance, he would probably not be noticed by anyone if he was thrown into the crowd.
However, upon closer inspection, there was a kind of charm on this person’s body. This charm was indescribable and unclear, as if every step he took was in harmony with the heavens and earth.
Only a true expert could discover that the feeling of being one with the heavens seemed to have merged with the heavens. This was the goal pursued by many martial artists.
Only a hundred steps away, this figure quickly walked not far from Zhu Xiuyuan and bowed to him first.
“Disciple Ye Feng greets all seniors.”
It was precisely Ye Feng who walked out. For some reason, he did not want the Dragon Talisman Sect to lose. If he lost, what should he do in the future? Where should he go? Ye Feng wanted to give it a try.
The first was to agree to Gu Longbai. The second was that the Dragon Talisman Sect was preceded by the Talisman Sect. Ye Feng had to investigate where the Divine Talisman had gone. Joining the Dragon Talisman Sect was the most correct choice.
“Who are you?”
Zhu Xiuyuan had a confused expression on his face. A fifth-grade Celestial Immortal was considered the most ordinary inner disciple in the Dragon Talisman Sect. The streets were filled with them. Zhu Xiuyuan had never heard of this person before.
“I am a disciple of the Dragon Talisman Sect who joined today. This is a token.”
Ye Feng said that he had only joined today, so he took out the token that Lu Zhi had given him last night.
“You said you wanted to try?”
After recognizing the command token, Zhu Xiuyuan returned it to Ye Feng. This was indeed the symbol of the Dragon Talisman Sect, and there was no falsehood.
“That’s right. The Dragon Talisman Sect is at a critical juncture. I hope that disciples can do their utmost.”
Ye Feng did not humble himself and did not say anything. Even in the face of a Seventh Grade Immortal King, he was still able to send and receive freely and calmly.
At this moment, a pair of beautiful eyes locked onto Ye Feng tightly in the linesman’s position. However, he did not understand why Ye Feng appeared here. He did not expect that Ye Feng was a disciple of the Dragon Talisman Sect, or that he was joining today on the first day.
“Are you confident of defeating Huangji Sect?”
Zhu Xiuyuan didn’t have any weapons left, but for some reason, he saw a glimmer of hope from Ye Feng. Could it be that it was an illusion? Perhaps it was because of the charm of Ye Feng.
“30%!”
Ye Feng simply released a number and had a 30% chance of defeating Huangji Sect.
Although it was very low, Zhu Xiuyuan sounded like that was enough, because if it was anyone else, they wouldn’t even have a ten percent chance.
“What a big tone. You’re a small Tier 5 Celestial Immortal, yet you dare to say that you have a 30% chance of defeating Huangji Sect. Stop joking and get lost.”
Another Seventh Grade Immortal King spoke, believing that Ye Feng was messing around, not even a Ninth Grade Celestial Immortal, let alone a Fifth Grade Celestial Immortal.
“If you have a suitable candidate, I will naturally withdraw!”
Ye Feng glanced at the Immortal King. It was normal for the other party to suspect him. Anyone would be suspicious.
This Immortal King was dumbfounded. How could they still have a candidate? The remaining dozen or so people looked at Ye Feng with gloating expressions. Finally, someone had made a move.
As long as they lost the third match, the match would be over and they wouldn’t have to take the blame.
“But why should we believe you? What if you are also a spy sent by an Emperor-level sect?”
Shen Yangyu still had a doubtful look on his face, because they had a lesson to learn from the past, so they had to figure it out.
“Even if I’m a spy, do you still have a choice?”
Ye Feng still maintained a faint smile. Even if he was a spy, so what? You guys are useless now.
