Zhang Xiaoli, why are you harming others? Do you still want to destroy the formation's core?
Seeing this scene, Wu Qianlian felt a deep pain in her heart. How could her junior brother do something like this? Even if he hated their master, there were so many innocent disciples and elders in the sect. Did he not understand what it meant if the formation was destroyed?
"Sister, it's not like that. I... I just..."
Zhang Xiaoli instinctively wanted to explain, but he didn't know how to articulate his thoughts. The people guarding this place had indeed been poisoned by him. He had pretended to come and offer pastries as a reward for everyone, but in reality, the pastries were laced with poison.
"Zhang Xiaoli, stop making excuses. You've allied yourself with the Taiping Sect, haven't you?" Chen Anlin accused.
Zhang Xiaoli glared at Chen Anlin. "What right do you have to speak to me? You people from the capital are nothing but spoiled brats who oppress the good!"
"Enough! Zhang Xiaoli, do you still want to insult Young Master Chen at this point? Surrender now, and the sect may still show you leniency," Wu Qianlian reprimanded.
"Sister, you don't understand the reason! You just don't know!" Zhang Xiaoli's eyes turned red as his heart ached unbearably.
"To tell the truth, my father... my village—those who truly killed them were Yang Bingyi and my beloved master!"
He had thought that revealing the truth would shock Wu Qianlian and help her understand his actions. But he was disappointed.
Wu Qianlian replied, "There’s a reason behind this. Our master was poisoned and lost his mind back then; that's why he acted that way. She has always felt guilty about it."
"Heh, Sister, it seems you've known all along. I only just found out from Young Master Chen."
"That's nonsense! Even if our master made mistakes, you shouldn't joke about the formation's core. The elders and other senior brothers have done nothing wrong," Wu Qianlian insisted.
"Enough! I will not surrender!"
[Ding! Your true nature has been seen through by your sister; you have gained luck points.]
Seeing the notification before him, Chen Anlin felt a stir in his heart. At the same time, he noticed that Zhang Xiaoli's luck seemed to darken and decline rapidly; it was now almost depleted.
Whoosh!
At that moment, Chen Anlin decided not to wait any longer. He seized the opportunity as a yellow shadow shot out swiftly. After all that had been said, he was worried that Zhang Xiaoli would destroy the formation's core. Now that Zhang Xiaoli was unguarded and his luck was waning, Chen Anlin struck instantly.
Pfft!
Zhang Xiaoli let out a muffled groan, clutching his chest as he stepped back.
Puff, puff.
Two more streams of sword energy shot forth.
Zhang Xiaoli's eyes widened in shock as he glared at Chen Anlin, wanting to say something. He never expected Chen Anlin to be this powerful; he had planned to stall for time until Wang Juan and her people arrived. But this guy had attacked directly!
Damn it, if I had known, I wouldn't have betrayed them! What a fool!
At that moment, Wang Juan coldly snorted as she approached with an elder and three disciples. They had come to check on the formation, and upon seeing the scene before them, they were taken aback.
"Wang Juan, kill them!" Zhang Xiaoli spat out blood and shouted.
Wang Juan didn’t even glance at him; instead, she turned to the elder beside her, who had reached the sixth rank. "Elder Luo, please deal with Chen Anlin. The rest of you, come with me to kill Wu Qianlian."
"Wang Juan, Elder Luo, how could you betray the sect?" Wu Qianlian's body was weak, but she gritted her teeth and endured the pain as she drew her sword at Wang Juan.
"Wu Qianlian, you're injured?" Wang Juan sensed Wu Qianlian's weakness and immediately laughed. "Hahaha, let's take her down!"
The disciples behind Wang Juan sprang into action instantly.
Wu Qianlian felt a surge of anxiety; Elder Luo was no weakling, and with Wang Juan and her group attacking, she feared that neither she nor Chen Anlin could withstand them.
"Young Master Chen, you should leave!" Wu Qianlian urged quickly.
Leave? Did he want to be a coward? Zhang Xiaoli spat out another mouthful of blood and deliberately provoked him.
Chen Anlin had no intention of fleeing. Suddenly, sword energy surged around him, six streams of sword intent shot up into the sky, radiating a golden glow.
"Nine Returns to One," Chen Anlin murmured softly.
Although he had only cultivated six streams of sword intent from the Nine Returns to One technique, it was more than enough to deal with these opponents.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In an instant, the overwhelming sword intent struck like lightning towards those in front of him.
Elder Luo and Wang Juan quickly raised their swords to defend themselves upon sensing the power of the sword intent.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
But in the next second, it was as if they had been hit by a machine gun; blood holes appeared all over their bodies as blood spurted out violently.
Elder Luo's eyes widened in despair; in just an instant, his meridians and heart were destroyed. Wang Juan and the other disciples fell silently without uttering a word, lifeless on the ground.
To everyone's surprise, Zhang Xiaoli still had some strength left; he leaped up and ran away into the distance.
"Kid, do you really think you can escape?"
Chen Anlin's voice filled Zhang Xiaoli with despair.
But he dared not stop; as he ran, he stuffed spirit pills into his mouth without hesitation. "Chen Anlin, spare me! I can give the Senior Sister spirit pills; I have plenty on me!"
With that, Zhang Xiaoli lowered his head, his gaze flickering. He still had poison on him and needed to find a way to use it.
Boom!
Chen Anlin unleashed a Fire Sun Fist, and before Zhang Xiaoli could say another word, he collapsed to the ground, lifeless.
[ Ding! Zhang Xiaoli has died. Plundered 10,000 Luck Points. ]
Seeing the prompt from the Luck Bottle, Chen Anlin finally felt at ease. Otherwise, someone like Zhang Xiaoli, a child of luck, could be cunning and might have some hidden tricks up his sleeve for a surprise attack—now that would be troublesome.
Given the nature of children of luck, if their golden finger wasn't some kind of system, they would definitely have treasures on them.
Chen Anlin pondered as he released his soul power. Since the other party was already dead, he could easily probe Zhang Xiaoli's body.
Soon enough, he discovered a pendant-like object on Zhang Xiaoli's chest. It was a small blue bottle. As his soul power touched the little blue bottle, it unexpectedly absorbed all of his soul power.
Interesting.
Chen Anlin chuckled.
At this point, he could confirm that this was Zhang Xiaoli's golden finger. After discreetly taking the small blue bottle, Chen Anlin returned to Wu Qianlian's side.
Wu Qianlian looked at the spot where Zhang Xiaoli had fallen with a complex expression; she knew he was dead. While she felt a twinge of regret, she believed he got what he deserved.
Sighing softly, she thought to herself that dying without pain was perhaps a mercy for him.
Outside, the assault by the demonic cultivators continued unabated. However, the protective mountain formation had yet to activate. Suddenly, someone shouted for a retreat.
"Quickly retreat! The formation's eye has been destroyed!"
Upon hearing this, the disciples of the Flower Sect panicked.
"What? The formation's eye has been destroyed? It's over!"
On the demonic cultivators' side, upon receiving news of the formation's destruction, they all became excited. Elder Hehuan and Blood Demon, along with the Qinglian Demoness, received the news immediately.
"Heh heh, it's our turn now."
The Blood Demon licked his crimson lips, unfurling his red robe as he shouted, "Follow me and let’s kill them all!"
Behind him stood a group of blood slaves, numbering over ten. Although their numbers were few, each one was well-versed in the Blood Burning Technique, capable of tapping into their potential by igniting their essence blood, which made them exceptionally powerful in battle.
The Elder of Ecstasy cast a calm gaze at the group of male and female disciples behind him and said, "It’s time for us to move. Remember, kill all the men and spare the women. Understood?"
"Yes, Master." The group of disciples, more than eighty in total, had blood-red eyes filled with eagerness.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Blood Demon, the Elder of Ecstasy, and the Azure Lotus Demoness soared into the sky, entering the airspace above the Flower Sect.
An elder immediately recognized the three figures—indeed, it was the Blood Demon, the Azure Lotus Demoness, and the Elder of Ecstasy.
The Elder of Ecstasy stroked his beard with a smile and looked at a female elder with a beaming face. "The women of the Flower Sect are just as beautiful as rumored. Even if they are a bit older, they remain like celestial beings. Elders, if you do not surrender to me and cultivate the Yin-Yang Path together, you will miss out on great bliss!"
"You have no shame to say such things after having caused so many deaths among those women," a female elder retorted angrily.
Hearing the name of the Elder of Ecstasy sent shivers down the spines of a group of female disciples. They had heard tales of his deeds; countless female cultivators had met tragic ends at his hands.
At that moment, some girls even decided that if they were captured, they would rather choose death.
"Oh? You’ve all come in!"
Just then, Chen Anlin stepped forward with a cheerful smile, followed by Zong Yang Bingyi and several high-ranking elders from the Flower Sect.
Within the Flower Sect, there were still four third-tier experts and over ten fourth-tier ones remaining. With their appearance, the pressure on the disciples eased significantly.
"Zong, why are you out here?" several ordinary elders hurried over to greet him. They had previously received news that Zong and the high-ranking elders were injured and unable to emerge for some time.
The Elder of Ecstasy squinted his eyes. "Interesting. Even injured yet still daring to show up. Are you planning to fight?"
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Chen Anlin. "And you, young man. I’ve heard you are favored by the Empress; you certainly look quite handsome."
"This one is mine," said the Azure Lotus Demoness with a playful laugh.
She had a penchant for young men who were handsome and delicate; such individuals radiated vibrant Yang energy that brought her great delight.
