Looking at Venerable Baiâs furious glare with a cold eye, Xie Wuyue mocked, âOlâ Bai, you sure are something to run so far. Men, slaughter him!â
âYes!â The guys behind him bowed and cupped their hands.
The fiends hurriedly intervened, âWait, just what is going on? Wuyue, why are you trying to kill Venerable Bai? The sect is under attack. Shouldnât we first deal with the enemy and then talk this out?â
âDeal with the enemy?â
Venerable Bai disdained, âFatty Yang, I thought you were with him, appearing here to stop me. Thatâs why I attacked. I never thought youâd be so stupid! Ha-ha-ha, what enemy attack? Thereâre only traitors!â
Fiend Yang shook and looked in shock, âWhat, traitors?â
Venerable Bai smirked, looking only at Xie Wuyue with disgust.
Xie Wuyue was filled with bloodlust, âOlâ Bai, I am the true Sect Leader of Demon Scheming Sect. You wanted to take my seat, you are the real traitors.â
âRotten scum, someone like you who brings an outside sect to kill your sect disciples and hunt down the stragglers is not fit to be a Sect Leader.â
âI only requested Sect Leader Ren and Sect Leader Xuanâs help to pacify the chaos. You forced me to do this.â Xie Wuyue squinted, âWhere have I gone wrong? Why must you choose a kid only five years in the sect over me? You even changed the rules for him!â
âHumph, your cruelty knows no bounds. You only know fear and never to be benevolent. The sect has been weak with you at the helm. Youâre not worthy of that seat!â
âDemons like you have the gall to talk about kindness? Weâre a demonic sect! How am I to get you to fall in line if not by being a bit harsh? What about the sect rules?â
âHi-hi-hi, Xie Wuyue, this is where you lack. Zhuo Fan is also stubborn, but he does it so everyone accept his decisions. You only know how to bluster and threaten. An aimless demon like you has no futureâŠâ
Xie Wuyueâs face twitched and clenched his fists, âWhat path, what Dao? Youâre just like that old geezer. Ha-ha-ha, In the end, I only took another method to take back my seat, pushing Zhuo Fan off it. Ha-ha-ha, in the end, itâs just a way to make me step down and get Zhuo Fan on top. Ha-ha-ha, unfortunately, youâll never get the change. The final victory is me! Die!â
Xie Wuyue charged at the weakened Venerable Bai, clawing at his chest.
Under the savage attack, Venerable Baiâs beard fluttered, but he glared in hatred at Xie Wuyue with the same mocking smile.
As if to sayâŠ
[You were never worth being a Sect Leader.]
Xie Wuyue grew outraged and put more power in his attack, wanting to take his heart.
âHold on a minute!â
The shout was coming from Fiend Yang, who stood between them.
Ugh!
Startled, Xie Wuyue halted, glaring coldly at him, âStand down!â
âWuyue, is this true?â
Fiend Yang did not wait for his response, âDid you bring other sects to kill your fellow people, just to steal a seat?â
âItâs not stealing a seat when itâs mine to begin with⊠â
Bam!
Xie Wuyue did not finish as a punch sent him ten meters backward, blood leaking from his mouth.
Fiend Yangâs fist shook, but what was more overwhelmed was his heart.
âIs this what you meant by doing everything for the sect, to take it higher?â Fiend Yang roared with a shaky voice.
Wiping his mouth, Xie Wuyue glared, âSince I worked for it, I have to be compensated. It makes no sense that Iâd be kicked away after we became a middle-three sect and let some ungrateful bastard take over!â
âFatty Yang, step down! Or Iâll put you down!â
Xie Wuyue stomped forward with a cold face, the fierce bloodlust coming from him was heavy, âFatty Yang, you were never my match!â
Fiend Yang raised an eyebrow and faltered, but he steeled himself and shouted, âI am a Demon Scheming Sect Venerable and I wonât stand and watch as my fellow sect member gets killed!â
âFine, then, step down. This is Sect Leaderâs order. I want to take down this traitor!â
âBullshit, youâre no Sect Leader, not after you brought enemies and killed your fellow sect members!â Fiend Yang shouted as he exploded in power.
Xie Wuyue shook and roared, âEven you betray me?â
Xie Wuyue charged.
Fiend Yangâs heart shook, but he gritted his teeth and made a sign. A yellow fireball appeared and smashed for Xie Wuyue.
âMeteor!â
âHumph, just an earthen soul. Itâs truly a fit for a fatty, all empty inside and useless.â Xie Wuyue mocked.
With a draconic roar, a black flood dragon came out from Xie Wuyue. It flicked its tail and struck the fireball.
When the fireball faded and returned to Fiend Yang, he shook and spat blood.
Being hurt so easily it showed the gap between them.
âDie, fatty!â
Xie Wuyue clawed at his chest with all his bloodlust, âFlood Dragon Claw!â
The other two fiends cried out, never imagining Xie Wuyue would be so ruthless as to kill Fiend Yang, his friend for centuries.
But not even they could stop Xie Wuyue. They unleashed their souls to block, but the flood dragonâs tail whipped them away and sending them coughing blood.
Sss~
Its sharp claws came like lightning on Fiend Yang.
Xie Wuyue grinned cruelly.
Fiend Yang sighed and shook his head with closed eyes, âI have been overconfident when I never managed to beat you once. If I knew it would come to this, I would have never saved you. Olâ Bai was right, seizing your power was better than letting the sect fall like thisâŠâ
Ugh!
Xie Wuyueâs claw halted before his chest.
Xie Wuyue remained like this, then took back his attack and simply kicked Fiend Yang.
âAgh!â
With a wail, Fiend Yang was sent a dozen meters away and forced to spit blood, with teeth in it.
âM-my tooth!â
Fiend Yangâs mouth shook and shrieked, âDamn you Xie Wuyue, kill me if you want to but donât torture me like this! At least on account of me saving you back thenâŠâ
âFatty Yang!â
The shout startled Fiend Yang. He looked up to see Xie Wuyueâs cold face.
Xie Wuyue turned to the other fiends and siad, âAnd you two, Iâll let you off today, but the next time I see you, all ties are broken. Then Iâll treat you like the traitors you are, sparing none!â
Xie Wuyue flicked his sleeve and ripped it off to prove his decision.
He turned around and led his men away. Only the three of them shook and looked at the sleeve on the ground with a sigh.
From now on, they and Xie Wuyue were no longer brothersâŠ
Venerable Bai took a deep breath and made a heavy bow, âForgive me, Venerables, I misunderstood you. Weâre on the same side.â
The trio shared a bitter smile.
[Yeah, weâre no longer with Xie Wuyue from here on out.]
They took the wounded Venerable Bai and sped away, not wanting any more pursuits. Xie Wuyue said that he would kill them if he met them again.
So the farther they went the better.
At the same time, other survivors were frantically fleeing for their lives from Xie Wuyueâs menâŠ
