Chapter 237: Breaking the Situation
This brutal and bloody scene frightened the Beast King Sect disciples so much that their souls almost flew away.
Before the crowd could react, they saw countless black shadows rushing towards them.
By the time they realized something was wrong, several more heads fell off.
"Enemy attack! Everyone gather together and provide protection!" Li Sheng raised his hand and summoned the big black snake he had trained.
The black snake was very huge. When it swept its long tail, something was hit hard and flew out.
When Li Sheng heard the sound of hitting, his heart instantly relaxed.
Li Sheng was worried that they would be completely wiped out because he hadn't been able to catch the person who attacked him. But now that he had caught the person, it shouldn't be that difficult to deal with them all.
However, before he could be happy for long, a huge force passed through his spirit beast and crashed straight into Li Sheng.
He was instantly knocked more than ten meters away, and his whole body was in pain as if all his bones were broken.
When Li Sheng looked up, he was surprised to find that they had been surrounded by countless corpses without knowing it.
What on earth is going on?!
Wasn’t it said that it was those evil cultivators from the Corpse Puppet Sect who destroyed the Bishui Sect? Shouldn’t they be hiding and continuing to refine new corpse puppets? Why would they come and attack them?
Li Sheng was full of confusion, but no one gave him an answer.
Just outside the corpse puppet, a woman with a strange appearance looked at them and whispered, "Kill."
The next second, the corpse puppets that surrounded them swarmed over.
The last scene Li Sheng saw was just a sea of blood.
On the other side, among the group of Beast King Sect disciples who had followed Dan Quhu to the vicinity of the camp, someone suddenly screamed, "I received a message from my senior brother. He said that they were attacked and asked us not to rescue them but to follow the young sect master and leave."
Everyone's heart trembled. When they heard the last sentence, they already understood that none of the Beast King Sect disciples in that team would escape alive.
After the disciple shouted out the news he had received, he couldn't control his tears.
He and his senior brother have always had a good relationship, but he feels that the young master is more worthy of following, while his senior brother prefers the side of the great elder.
When they separated before, they were still trying to persuade each other to leave with them.
But the two of them failed to convince each other in the end, and could only follow their respective leaders and leave for the time being.
But they were still worried about each other, so they kept in touch and planned to discuss the next steps after they both arrived at a safe place.
But no one expected that Li Sheng's team would suddenly be attacked by corpse puppets. The senior brother was also smart. After discovering something was wrong, he immediately sent a message to his junior brother, hoping to use his own fate to warn other fellow disciples and let them follow Dan Quhu's actions.
Today, the Nanshan Secret Realm has become a hunting ground for evil cultivators to hunt them. If another batch of young disciples of the Beast King Sect die, it will be an irreparable loss for the sect.
Among the crowd, some disciples were worried, not knowing whether their choice of Dan Quhu was the right one or not, and now they were just afraid.
If they had chosen the wrong person, they would be among the victims now.
Dan Quhu did not listen to the disciple's one-sided story. He took out his own measuring stick, but saw Li Sheng's name in gray on it.
That means the person who left this spiritual power is dead.
Dan Quhu clenched his ruler tightly and said through his teeth: "Let's go! Go to the camp and join up with Qingxiao Sect!"
There was only the last stretch of the journey left, and he had to bring these remaining disciples back to the camp safely.
Now, the surviving disciples suddenly became obedient. They did whatever Dan Quhu asked them to do and quickly returned to the joint camp.
At this time in the camp, the people from the Sword Holding Sect had already returned, and even the team from the Falling Dragon City had just arrived.
Seeing so many people coming back, Dan Quhu felt that his decision was right.
After he settled his fellow disciples, Dan Quhu found Xie Liuyin and told her what had happened to another group of Beast King Sect disciples.
"I guess Li Sheng and the others may have met with unexpected accidents now. I regret not persuading them all to come over." Dan Quhu lowered his head with a sad expression.
Xie Liuyin said, "They trust Li Sheng more than you. Even if you forcefully bring him back, they won't be grateful to you if they are not threatened."
"In the final analysis, it's because you haven't established yourself in the Beast King Sect. Do you think that if the leader of today's team is replaced by that great elder, will anyone still question your decision?"
The sadness on Dan Quhu's face paused, and his expression gradually became strange.
"If you want to change the current situation, you have to shoulder the responsibility of the young sect leader after leaving the secret realm and gain the support of most of the monks in the sect. Only then will it be possible to snatch power from your chief elder with the least loss." Xie Liuyin continued to persuade him.
She observed Dan Quhu's expression and continued, "I have a good idea that can strike a blow to the great elder."
Dan Quhu's eyes lit up and he looked at Xie Liuyin expectantly.
Xie Liuyin took out a photo stone and handed it to Dan Quhu: "You should still remember the grudge between me and Xie Mingzhu, right?"
Dan Quhu nodded repeatedly. Not only did he know about the grudge between the two, he had also learned from several Qingxiao Sect disciples that Xie Mingzhu had once again mixed up with the people from the Demon Sect and even tried to kill them all in order to conceal his actions.
When he heard the news, Dan Quhu was also afraid of Xie Mingzhu's ruthless methods.
But he was a little confused as to why Xie Liuyin suddenly talked to him about these things.
"The scenes of Xie Mingzhu colluding with the demon cultivators at that time were all recorded in this photo stone. I heard that after she was expelled from Qingxiao Sect, it was your sect's chief elder who insisted on keeping her there despite all objections."
Dan Quhu's eyes suddenly lit up.
“You said, if this video was released, everyone would know that Xie Mingzhu was a spy planted by the evil cultivators in the righteous sect. The Great Elder even took Xie Mingzhu back and even accepted him as his last disciple after he found out Xie Mingzhu’s identity in the Qingxiao Sect.”
"Even if the Great Elder is innocent, he should still pay a price for the wrong things he did, right?"
The more Xie Liuyin spoke, the more interesting Dan Quhu's expression became.
He was only angry before and never thought of using Xie Mingzhu as a breakthrough to prove that the Great Elder did not know the right people and put the Beast King Sect in danger.
Even though the Great Elder now holds a special status in the Beast King Sect, anyone with a brain knows that if they get involved with the devil cultivators, they will be targeted by the entire cultivation world.
Once this evidence is released, no matter how capable the Great Elder is, he will have to behave himself for a few years.
Even if Dan Quhu cannot get rid of the enemy immediately, the extra few years will be enough for him to find a way to make a comeback.
"So, live well. As long as you leave the secret realm alive, you will have a way to break the impasse." After Xie Liuyin finished speaking, he waved his hand and turned back to his tent.
