Chapter 1700: If He Is Heartless, We Will Be Unrighteous
"While that's how we say it, the situation now is different from before!" Qi Yongchuan whispered, "If they truly succeed in framing us, then... then the other three Major Sects might also target us. After all, they're very concerned about the matter with Su Yang now!"
This statement made Sect Leader Qi's brow furrow as well. Just as Qi Yongchuan said, the matter with Su Yang was truly no small affair!
Seeing Sect Leader Qi remain silent, Qi Yongchuan couldn't help but step forward, whispering, "Father, I believe we must take special care in this matter. Otherwise, we should strike first and simply kill all those Jade-faced Judge people, once and for all. Then, no one will target us anymore!"
"No!" Sect Leader Qi immediately waved his hand, "We cannot do that!"
"Why?" Qi Yongchuan was astonished, "Father, the Jade-faced Judge is already forcing us down a dead end. Are you still thinking of reasoning with them?"
"This isn't a matter of reasoning!" Sect Leader Qi said in a deep voice, "Do you think the Jade-faced Judge would dare to investigate us just by themselves?"
Qi Yongchuan was stunned for a moment, looking at Sect Leader Qi in astonishment, "What... what do you mean?"
"There must be someone supporting the Jade-faced Judge from behind!" Sect Leader Qi took a deep breath and said solemnly, "I even suspect that the one supporting them in this act could very well be the Medicine Sect's Second Elder!"
"Huh?" Qi Yongchuan's face changed immediately. The Medicine Sect's Second Elder could be considered the controller of the four Major Sects. If he wanted to target Tian Ya Hai Jiao, then Tian Ya Hai Jiao would indeed be in big trouble.
Sect Leader Qi said in a deep voice, "If it really is the Second Elder supporting the Jade-faced Judge, and we act against the Jade-faced Judge at this time, the Second Elder will definitely not stand idly by. He might even bring people from the other two Major Sects to deal with us!"
Qi Yongchuan gasped in shock; he hadn't thought this far ahead. Now hearing Sect Leader Qi say this, he felt anxious. If that's the case, the situation on Tian Ya Hai Jiao's side is more troublesome than imagined!
"Then... what should we do?" Qi Yongchuan hurriedly asked.
Sect Leader Qi furrowed his brow in thought for a long time, then gritted his teeth and whispered, "Since he is ruthless, don't blame us for being unjust. We have been benevolent to the Second Elder, but he treats us like this, so why should we treat him kindly?"
Qi Yongchuan was momentarily stunned and whispered, "Father, are you planning to deal with the Second Elder?"
"We have no choice!" Sect Leader Qi said solemnly, "The Second Elder is also very cautious. If he supports the Jade-faced Judge in this, he has already determined in his mind that we have betrayed them. And the Second Elder's personality is extremely suspicious, once he's suspicious, it's very difficult to clear our name. So, we shouldn't think about making the Second Elder believe us anymore. To be stable, he must be removed from his position. Then, we can not only clear our name but also completely defeat the Jade-faced Judge!"
Qi Yongchuan immediately got excited and said, "Father, do you have a plan?"
Sect Leader Qi gave him a glance and whispered, "This matter can't be rushed; I'll arrange it. You go and kill Ge Kaiyang's subordinate, and remember, do it cleanly; don't let anyone find out!"
"Yes!" Qi Yongchuan nodded quickly and left.
Sect Leader Qi watched Qi Yongchuan walk into the inner room, his brow furrowing tightly once more. Originally, he only held hostility towards the people of the Jade-faced Judge, merely intended to step on them. Now, it seems he underestimated their capabilities. To live peacefully, he must resolve them!
Slowly clenching his fists, Sect Leader Qi instead turned around and left, disappearing into the vast night.
...
At nine p.m., the Second Elder personally brought people into Yan Gui City, arriving at the manor where the Beigong War God resided.
"Beigong War God!" the Second Elder shouted loudly in mid-air, "The three-day deadline is up. Will you choose to submit or choose to die?"
The sound was loud, echoing throughout the manor, allowing everyone inside to hear clearly.
Soon, someone flew out from the manor, and it was the Beigong War God himself. He alone stood proudly in the air, looking at the people of the four Major Sects from afar, smirking coldly, "In this world, there doesn't exist anyone who can make me, the Beigong War God, submit. You, a bunch of crooks, thinking yourselves kings with no tigers in the mountain, wish to make me submit; on what basis?"
"Arrogant!" the Second Elder shouted, "Beigong War God, you are but a mortal beneath the Land Immortals. Do you really think being ahead among mortals means you can disregard others? You must understand, mortals are ultimately mortals; no matter your strength, you are not worthy to desecrate a God!"
"You think you're a God?" the Beigong War God asked coldly.
"I long since stepped into the Land Immortal Realm, naturally considered a God!" the Second Elder shouted loudly.
"Alright, then let's have a fight and see if I have the right to desecrate a God!" the Beigong War God coldly shouted, meanwhile stepping forward forcefully, glaring at the Second Elder.
The Second Elder suddenly felt intimidated. Despite his bold words, when it came to truly fighting the Beigong War God, he lacked the courage. Though he was a Land Immortal and the Beigong War God was not, the Beigong War God's strength was beyond his ability to withstand!
"I don't have time to argue about these meaningless things!" the Second Elder shouted loudly, "Beigong War God, if you are unwilling to submit, don't blame us for being merciless. This time, not only you but everyone in your manor will not leave alive!"
"No one I brought, the Beigong War God, is afraid of dying!" the Beigong War God said loudly, "These words may scare you, but they can't scare me. So stop with the nonsense. If you want to fight, let's fight, don't dawdle here; or do you still think you might convince me?"
"Stubborn, courting death!" the Second Elder cursed furiously, waving his hand, "Kill, don't leave anyone in this manor!"
The surrounding crowds had already charged in, aggressively surrounding the manor.
From within the manor, hundreds of people charged out, each holding weapons, fiercely staring at the people of the four Major Sects in the sky. Even though facing so many Land Immortals, these people showed no fear, each with an expression of readiness to die!
Those who remained here with the Beigong War God, how many of them were afraid of death?
