Chapter 275 Identity Revealed? The Cult Leader's Veil Unveiled!
Li Qingluo saw this scene clearly.
Seeing Prince Yun being killed, they fled in panic, trying to escape for their lives.
Moreover, if Prince Yun loses one eye, he will be a useless person.
How could Li Qingluo not be unhappy?
Whether in her past life or this one, Liu Qingzhu's attempt to scheme against Li Qingluo through self-immolation was all due to the support and influence of Prince Yun behind the scenes; otherwise, Liu Qingzhu herself could not have accomplished it.
That's why Li Qingluo repeatedly spared Liu Qingzhu's life.
Otherwise, how could they grow to loathe each other and torment one another?
Although it was far from enough, they certainly did not disappoint her.
Now Liu Qingzhu is completely useless to Prince Yun and has been ruthlessly driven out of Prince Yun's residence.
As for Prince Yun, it's time for him to meet his end!
Li Qingluo even felt a surge of urgency, reaching out to seize the opportunity to shoot a hidden arrow and end Prince Yun's life.
However, just as she made her move, Prince Su noticed and grabbed her tightly.
"what you up to?"
He seemed to understand her murderous intent, and his eyes instantly turned icy.
Li Qingluo's heart sank suddenly. She thought to herself: Prince Yun is, after all, his brother. My intentions just now will surely anger him...
However, Prince Su merely tightened his grip on her wrist and coldly rebuked her: "How dare you! Attempting to murder a prince, do you know that is a capital offense?"
"If you want to kill him, today is not the best time for you to do so."
After saying that, he looked at the chaotic fighting before him and suddenly snorted, "Why don't we learn first how to kill and save our own lives!"
"First, look at the book and see how I do it."
After saying this, Prince Su kicked up a knife at his feet, and with one hand still holding Li Qingluo, he used the other hand to chop up a pumpkin and start killing with Li Qingluo.
Li Qingluo was soon covered in blood.
But she didn't even dare to blink.
She became increasingly agitated and nervous, watching how Duan Rongshi made his move, how he exerted force, how he twisted his wrist, and how he delivered a fatal blow, taking lives one after another!
This scene, however, seems increasingly familiar.
Li Qingluo seemed to have returned to the last time, when she was tricked by Zhuiyu into delivering medicine to Prince Su, but was forced to fall into the trap set by the Lotus Sect with Prince Su.
That time, Prince Su was completely alone.
It was also a cage meticulously designed by the Lotus Sect to take his life.
It was practically a do-or-die situation.
But even on that occasion, he did not allow anyone to harm her in the slightest.
Perhaps if it weren't for me, he wouldn't have been so badly injured.
At this moment, Li Qingluo repeatedly recalled why she hadn't thought of learning how he killed people that time.
This time, he once again led her into the midst of the Lotus Cult members.
This time, however, they were no longer the deer that was hunted.
They became that hunter.
As if to avenge the last time they were besieged, Duan Rongshi directly took on the role of master, giving guidance to his eager-to-learn disciple, Li Qingluo.
His moves may seem haphazard, but in reality, he was calculating his next move with every single one.
Each time you kill someone, you can turn around and find out what tricks the person behind you is up to.
Not a single strike missed its mark.
"Would you like to know the fastest way to take someone's head?"
Suddenly, Duan Rongshi pulled Li Qingluo into his arms, grabbed her hands from behind, grabbed the top of a man's head with a large knife, and swiftly slashed the man's neck.
"Unfortunately, this knife isn't fast enough."
He coldly tossed the corpse aside, and seeing that she wasn't terrified and trembling, he finally smiled with satisfaction.
Sure enough, she was never a little girl who would disappoint him...
Meanwhile, Zheng Lingzhou and the Lotus Cult Leader finally noticed the anomaly on this side.
In the crowd, a tall man wearing a white dragon mask and dressed in all white, now stained with blood, was leading an extremely ugly woman as he slaughtered the Lotus Cult members!
There were large piles of corpses around them, but they didn't come over to steal anything, nor did they seem to intend to attack any important targets.
It's as if they're just using the most lowly ants as practice and outlets for their anger.
Zheng Lingzhou and the Lotus Sect Leader simultaneously exclaimed, "Fifth Master Yue?"
This month, Fifth Master's identity remains a mystery. He has purchased many unusual items at gambling dens, but he never gets involved in things like drinking, gambling, and whoring, which are considered detrimental to one's moral character.
Moreover, he was never accompanied by many attendants whenever he appeared.
He appears unassuming, but he is incredibly generous with his money, which is why the Lisboa Casino has always treated him as an honored guest.
Unexpectedly, he also showed up today to stir up this mess.
What does he want to do?
Could it be that he also wants to steal the Blood Gu Worm?
Moreover, judging from his skills, he is actually a hidden, ruthless martial arts master!
He only had one person with him, and that person looked like a complete waste, yet he dared to come out and fight.
That's incredibly arrogant and overbearing!
"Since you all dare to invade my Lotus Sect at will, then you shall all die today!"
The Lotus Cult Leader gave a cold snort and immediately waved his hand, signaling his men on both sides to immediately surround and attack Master Yue.
Zheng Lingzhou, however, sensed a strong sense of unease.
When did Fifth Master suddenly appear this month?
At the Lisboa Casino, he competed with Prince Jin for the blood worm, but later clearly gave up. Was his attempt to snatch it at this point just a passing by, or was it premeditated?
"Master, something's not right!"
Zheng Lingzhou stepped forward to remind the Lotus Cult Leader, but the Lotus Cult Leader turned around and glared at him sharply.
"Do you think I don't know about this? This month, Fifth Master's identity is questionable."
Moreover, that fake cult leader who dared to impersonate her kept jumping around, never directly engaging Zheng Lingzhou in a fight, making him as annoying as a flea.
It's obvious he's stalling for time, or he's simply toying with the Lotus Sect.
But are these two actually working together?
Even the Lotus Sect Leader was unsure.
Fortunately, the Blood Gu Worm had fallen back into their own hands, and the Lotus Cult Leader breathed a sigh of relief.
However, before she could completely let her guard down, the thunderous sound of iron hooves came from afar.
Immediately someone shouted, "Yes, it's the soldiers!"
Soldiers!?
Why are the soldiers here?!
Even the Lotus Sect Leader's expression changed. Why hadn't she received any prior warning?
Furthermore, when did their Lotus Sect's sentries become so incompetent that they only discovered the government troops' presence now?!
Damn it!
The Lotus Cult Leader turned around and slapped Zheng Lingzhou hard across the face.
"Useless trash! Is this the kind of teaching I entrusted to you? Is this how you return such a useless Lotus Sect to me?! Get out of here now!"
Zheng Lingzhou could only cover his face, his expression gloomy and speechless.
Little did he know that the Lisboa Casino was the cult leader's hiding place.
Otherwise, the entire operation wouldn't have been completely disrupted by that imposter posing as the cult leader.
Even more unexpectedly, what was originally intended to be a interception of goods from two ordinary princes, so the number of followers they brought was only an average, yet they were instead being slaughtered and gradually weakened...
Only now did Zheng Lingzhou vaguely realize that everything that had happened today seemed to have fallen into an incomprehensible maze from the very beginning...
However, it was all too late.
That unassuming Prince of Jin actually had some skill; despite being severely wounded by his own attack, he continued to fight desperately.
It's impossible to kill him to silence him.
That Prince Yun is indeed ruthless, but we can't kill them all today. It's not a big deal if one more deposed prince lives.
The cult leader's whereabouts have been exposed today; the Lisboa Casino is likely doomed...
Today should have been the day for their Lotus Cult, but the vast majority of the corpses lying on the ground were those of their Lotus Cult members.
The losses today are extremely heavy.
Zheng Lingzhou was seething with rage, but he could only grit his teeth and shout, "Everyone, retreat!"
But when he looked up at Master Yue again, his gaze inadvertently drifted over the extremely ugly man beside Master Yue.
Zheng Lingzhou, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped.
That man was learning how to kill from Master Yue Wu.
She acted quite swiftly.
Although she was a fledgling, her every move subtly revealed a sense of familiarity.
Furthermore, he had just clearly seen a hidden arrow shoot out from her wrist!
Although she was very fast, her aim was excellent.
Zheng Lingzhou had seen that hidden arrow before.
Last time, near Qingsong Temple and in this grove of trees, he witnessed her trying to kill him with a hidden arrow!
It's her!?
Li Qingluo!
Zheng Lingzhou's eyes widened, and his chest heaved.
Once he had this guess in his mind, he could no longer suppress it and immediately wished he could go and see for himself if it was true.
Before he even got close enough, Li Qingluo noticed him.
Prince Su had already released Li Qingluo, allowing her to follow behind him and personally practice killing people.
With Prince Su leading the way, Li Qingluo didn't have to exert much effort, and he became more and more efficient in killing, gradually adopting Prince Su's style.
But when she looked up, her blood-soaked body suddenly met Zheng Lingzhou's eyes.
She smiled at Zheng Lingzhou.
Zheng Lingzhou was completely dazed.
Although she was incredibly ugly, her smile instantly captivated him.
What is she laughing at?
He soon found out.
Without hesitation, Li Qingluo raised her hand and shot the hidden arrow from her wrist at him!
Although Zheng Lingzhou managed to dodge it, her sleeve arrow still grazed his neck, causing blood to flow freely.
He shouted angrily, "It really was you!"
Li Qingluo ignored him.
They simply followed Prince Su towards the Lotus Sect Leader.
Zheng Lingzhou realized something was wrong.
If she is Li Qingluo, then who exactly is Fifth Master this month?
Moreover, Fifth Master Na Yue suddenly turned his attention to the cult leader. What exactly was he planning to do?
Could it be that his goal is to kill the cult leader?
Although Zheng Lingzhou could not be said to be loyal to the Lotus Sect Leader, and everything he and his sister Zheng Wanxiu did in joining the Lotus Sect was only to overthrow the Great Liang and avenge their Zheng family, the Lotus Sect Leader must not die!
With the death of the Lotus Sect Leader, the Lotus Sect will inevitably disintegrate and cease to exist!
However, just as he got up, a thick white smoke suddenly filled the surroundings.
The sound of iron cavalry galloping in the distance grew closer and closer, like a conspiracy to capture the Lotus Sect, a dense net already woven for them.
And they had nowhere to escape...
Upon seeing the thick smoke all around, the Lotus Sect Leader realized that something was terribly wrong.
She turned around and shouted, "Someone! Someone, quickly protect me and get me out of here!"
However, the people behind her had all mysteriously disappeared.
The ground was littered with dead and wounded; they had all been silently slaughtered by Master Yue, who wore a white dragon mask.
Master Yue Wu gradually emerged from the smoke.
What he was holding was just an ordinary, common knife.
At this moment, stained with blood, the Lotus Sect Leader's heart trembled at the sight, and he felt a chill creeping down his spine—
"Who...who are you?"
Her aura was not weak; after all, she was the dignified leader of the Lotus Sect.
But when she faced the Fifth Master Yue, she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
Fifth Master Yue did not answer.
He just stared at her, as if he were smiling slightly.
The Lotus Sect Leader suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. As she turned her head, a hidden arrow whistled past her face, ripping off her veil.
