Chapter Sixty: I, of the Quanxing clan, cannot be deceived; Lu Xuan has already sought his own death.
Gong Qing felt like he was already dead, otherwise why would everyone he met be so eerie?
You freaking said you spent 34,000 yuan to buy a sword belonging to Lu Zu?
Gong Qing's brain went blank for a few seconds before he realized that his brain seemed to have been eaten.
Take your brain out of your heels and use it one more time!
How could you say something like that?
Gong Qing suddenly realized that making the pledge to come to Longhu Mountain was an incredibly foolish decision.
The worst part is that these people are such cowards...
Gong Qing looked at the many wooden plaques in front of him. Each plaque represented a member of the Quanxing sect. This was an ability passed down by Liu Pozi, a famous elder of the Quanxing sect, which allowed him to contact many members of the Quanxing sect.
Gong Qing hadn't used Granny Liu's abilities to relay messages many times over the years, after all, he was only the acting sect leader.
But now he has to use this ability to send a message to the Quanxing people, because these Quanxing people are such cowards!
Those who can join Quanxing are a group of wicked and reckless people, many of whom have blood on their hands. They have nothing to do with tough guys.
Of course, even though Gong Qing now has only Dou Mei left of the four Zhang Kuangs who died, and has also lost one of the Six Thieves, he is not lacking in Quanxing masters and real tough guys.
What he needs now is cannon fodder, and the key is that this group of cannon fodder is truly disloyal, shameless, and genuinely afraid of death.
For those who truly understand the broad sense of the Quanxing, even if the Quanxing suffer heavy casualties, they don't care as long as they aren't killed themselves, and they certainly won't resist.
Face? What's the point of being a member of the Quanxing sect if you need that?
In just one month, more than two hundred members of the Quanxing sect have died, not a single one of them was injured, and they all died at the hands of one person.
That person has now gone to Longhu Mountain, and you still want us to go to Longhu Mountain to die?
What acting sect leader? I'm only calling you acting sect leader out of respect; otherwise, you'd be begging on your knees.
No way! You can talk until the end, but we still won't go.
What? You're saying you used the one and only command of the Quanxing Sect Leader's Order?
That won't work either. If we all disobey your orders, you can't punish us because of the sheer number of people, and you can't kill us all.
Go up Longhu Mountain together? Wouldn't that be a death sentence?
Because of the Quanxing group's fear of death, this "group chat" almost turned into a memorial service.
"My good brother, the King of Murder in Mohe! He died such a tragic death! He slit his own throat with a single stroke!"
"And my lover, Guli, she died a terrible death! Her body wasn't even intact."
"Hiss! Isn't Guli that androgynous woman from Thailand?"
"Brother, you don't understand that kind of tightness..."
"Holy shit! Get out of here!"
"The most important one is Xia He! Holy crap, she's such a beauty!"
"Killing him so easily, that Lu Xuan was a complete waste of talent."
"Do you want a rare, out-of-print photo album of Xia He?"
Let's chat privately.
"And Liu Bining, I still owe him money... Wait, it seems I don't have to pay it back."
"My good brother is the same! He just went to guard the gate for Shen Chong and his life was gone!"
"It's terrible! My whole family is in trouble! All my good brothers are dead!"
Seeing that this private chat was about to turn into a memorial service, Gong Qing couldn't help but slam his fist on the table in exasperation.
"Weeping by day, weeping by night, how can weeping kill Lu Xuan?"
"In my great cause of Quanxing, with so many heroes, is there not a single man of iron will among them?"
Gong Qing's words were resounding, and the silence of the Quanxing members was deafening.
Say whatever you want, but there's absolutely no way we're going to our deaths.
Gong Qing: "..."
Damn it, these cannon fodder have really learned to be smart!
It's not easy to fool cannon fodder these days!
Gong Qing fell silent, glancing out of the corner of his eye at the message sent by Domain Poison.
Gong Qing: "(─??─)?"
I suddenly had a great idea!
Gong Qing cleared his throat.
"Gentlemen, is it because you're afraid of Lu Xuan that you didn't come to Longhu Mountain?"
"how is this possible?"
"Exactly! Exactly, we're not like that."
"Gong Qing, do you think we're pushovers?"
The Quanxing members reacted with great enthusiasm and passion; not one of them sounded like a coward or a weakling.
Gong Qing thought to himself, "Aren't you all like that?"
All the members of the Quanxing: We are, but we don't admit it.
"Listen to me, everyone. I know you are not afraid of Lu Xuan, but if I were Lu Xuan, I wouldn't be so scary."
Quanxing: Haha! You're just fooling me.
Say whatever you want, but there's absolutely no way we're going to our deaths.
Gong Qing continued his impassioned speech.
"What I want to tell everyone is that Lu Xuan is powerful not because of his great skills, but because he took down the sword left behind by Lu Zu on Wudang Mountain."
"He doesn't actually have any great skills; he just relies on external objects to act violently. Without that sword, he's nothing."
Upon hearing this, all the members of the Quanxing sect present were filled with righteous indignation... but that's a lie!
If you can't beat them, you can't beat them. What difference does it make whether you rely on external means or not? Don't try to fool us.
"What if I told you that this sword is now in my hands?"
"Now that Lu Zu's sword is gone, Lu Xuan is nothing. Do you think we're all afraid of a mere Lu Xuan?"
Many members of Quanxing: "..."
Ah... this seems like we can start talking!
But your credibility is a bit low, unless you put it in writing!
These cannon fodder are really hard to fool!
Gong Qing was so angry he gritted his teeth, but his face remained calm as he coldly said.
"I swear on Yu Huadu's life, he has already obtained Lu Zu's sword. Now I have made him bring the sword over. Don't you all believe me?"
The Quanxing group present suddenly became a little excited.
They're a bunch of trash, bullies who prey on the weak and do all sorts of evil. The reason they couldn't say anything earlier was simply because they were afraid of dying. They're not afraid of powerful people, but they are afraid of the people who will actually kill them.
Ultimately, within the world of supernatural beings, the Old Celestial Master's reputation still firmly surpasses Lu Xuan's. In the eyes of the supernatural world, Lu Xuan is still just a young man, unable to compare to the Old Celestial Master's decades-long illustrious reputation.
Why are they afraid of Lu Xuan, but not of the Celestial Master before?
Because the Celestial Master hadn't left the mountain for so many years, they had lost their reverence for him and felt that even if they caused a huge disturbance at Longhu Mountain, the Celestial Master might not necessarily suffer any consequences.
However, Lu Xuan really does kill Quanxing, and his methods are extremely cruel, maintaining a record of zero intact corpses to this day.
Lu Xuan was truly ruthless, and they were truly terrified.
Human nature is such that people will always gamble on something as vague and unrealistic as arrogance, a point that every reader who stays up late should understand.
Hearing that Lu Xuan was only acting recklessly with the Lu Zu Sword and had lost his abilities, people couldn't help but have all sorts of wild thoughts.
Gong Qing calmly added, "Regardless of whether this disturbance at Longhu Mountain succeeds or not, I will hand over this sword of Lu Zu to everyone."
"By then, everyone will be able to use the Lu Zu Sword."
As soon as Gong Qing finished speaking, the crowd of Quanxing was aroused.
"Fine! That son of a bitch Lu Xuan, I've disliked him for ages!"
"This time, I'm going to avenge my good brother, the Mohe Killer King."
"Mr. Liu is selfless and generous, and I must seek justice for him."
"I have long been in love with Xia He, and this time I must avenge her."
"The main reason is that I am not to be deceived by Quanxing, and Lu Xuan has already found a way to die."
"The bond between my brothers in the Quanxing Sect is stronger than gold. If anyone dares to kill one of my brothers, I will kill Lu Xuan!"
A cold smile appeared on Gong Qing's face. These cannon fodder were indeed easy to fool.
What Quanxing has no shortage of is this kind of cannon fodder at the bottom; the real Quanxing high-level leaders have long reached a certain tacit understanding.
I'll let these cannon fodder die, and I'll finish the plan as soon as possible and run away.
Gong Qing had overheard the Old Celestial Master and Lu Jin discussing Lu Xuan on Longhu Mountain, and knew only a fraction of Lu Xuan's terrifying cultivation level. He had no intention of going to his death like these cannon fodder.
"Come on! Let these cannon fodder go and die!"
Gong Qing sneered incessantly, "Let the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony begin! I can't wait!"
Chapter 61: A Cover-Up, But Not That Cover-Up
At the edge of the cliff, two steel cables are connected, with darkness below. Occasionally, two gusts of wind cause the cables to sway from side to side.
Zhang Chulan swallowed hard as he looked at the steel cable in front of him. He wasn't afraid of anything, but did you believe that he was just afraid of heights?
