Chapter 36 - Sect's Higher-Ups

The old man gritted his teeth and stared at Liu Chuan. Suddenly, he smiled.

"Good kid, you're not bad. Since you're unwilling to touch my treasure, go back to where you came from. We're not fated to be together!"

Liu Chuan sneered.

"I have the same intention!"

As Liu Chuan spoke, he retreated step by step. When he reached the door, he left the courtyard in a flash.

The old man looked at the door with killing intent.

He did not expect this kid to be so easy to fool. However, since this kid already knew that he was hiding at the foot of the Divine Martial Sect's mountain, it was inevitable that he would reveal his location. If he really revealed his location, wouldn't the people from the Divine Martial Sect send people to capture him?

In this world, who was the best at keeping secrets? The dead. Other than the dead, everyone else would reveal their secrets!

Liu Chuan fled the town at the foot of the mountain. He didn't even dare to look back and used the fastest speed he had ever used to rush to the mountainside.

Basically, when they reached the mountainside, there were more and more disciples from the Divine Martial Sect. If the old man wanted to kill him, it would not be so easy.

"This old man is too evil! I haven't even said what to do, but this old man is already letting me touch that disgusting piece of rotten meat. No, I have to think of a way."

Liu Chuan didn't have time to discuss it with Bai Mingxuan and the others. He hurriedly ran back to the sect. He held the Recording Stone in his hand. This Recording Stone had always been circulated and kept in his pocket. The old man might not have expected this kid to be so generous, so he didn't think that Liu Chuan might have a Recording Stone on him.

With the evidence in hand, there was no better solution now. This method could save his life and allow the higher-ups of the sect to quickly send experts to capture the old man at the foot of the mountain.

Liu Chuan found his master and handed the recording to him. After his master saw the scene recorded by the Recording Stone, he gasped.

"Liu Chuan, oh Liu Chuan, why are you so bold? Why didn't you tell your master before doing this?! How did you know about this old man?"

Liu Chuan roughly explained what had happened and picked out what he could say. After Liu Chuan's master heard it, he thought about it carefully and finally understood.

Oh! It turned out that Liu Chuan and Liu Shengtian were still on the same side. He did this because he wanted to help Liu Shengtian think for the sect and find those enemies hidden in the dark.

Liu Chuan's master didn't dare to delay. He took the Recording Stone and brought Liu Chuan to the sect master's residence.

He asked Liu Chuan to wait at the door. After a while, almost all the elders of the Divine Martial Sect, other than those in seclusion and those who had gone out, had already arrived.

After looking at the Recording Stone, Xiao Xiong placed the stone on the table. The other elders had also roughly seen the scene recorded in the stone just now. Everyone's faces were filled with confusion and anger.

Xiao Xiong also suppressed his anger.

"I never thought that these guys would actually come under the noses of my Divine Martial Sect. They're really bold!"

Then, Xiao Xiong looked up at Liu Chuan's master, Wang Qiu.

"Wang Qiu, since this matter was discovered by your disciple, I'll leave the matter of capturing this person to you as his master. The two of you are in charge of capturing this person!"

When Wang Qiu heard this, he was overjoyed. Liu Chuan had the chance to make a contribution. He was really his good disciple.

Wang Qiu immediately cupped his hands respectfully and said, "Please rest assured, Sect Master. I will definitely capture this demon and bring him to justice!"

After Wang Qiu left the Sect Master's residence, Liu Chuan hurriedly followed. The master and disciple were almost telepathic. Wang Qiu did not answer along the way, and Liu Chuan did not ask further. The two of them knew in their hearts that there must be a spy in the Divine Martial Sect.

The two of them descended the mountain and only started to talk after crossing the mountainside.

"Liu Chuan, you've done a great service this time. Master will take down this demon. You have to watch carefully from the side. If you see that the situation is not good, turn around and run immediately. Go up the mountain to find reinforcements!"

After Liu Chuan heard this, he could tell that his master wanted him to deal with that demon from the Demon Sect. He recalled that the demon had taken out a piece of rotten meat from his pocket. There must be spiritual parasites inside the rotten meat, so Liu Chuan reminded him on behalf of his master.

"Master, it's not that I don't believe you, but this old man is too cunning. This old man probably killed the spiritual parasite master who provoked Liu Shengtian and the others. Why don't I help?"

Wang Qiu smiled when he heard this.

"Don't worry, that spiritual parasite master only has a few tricks up his sleeve. Since Sect Master sent me down the mountain, Sect Master knows that I will definitely be able to subdue this demon!"

"The reason why I told you to run immediately when you saw that the situation was not good is because your cultivation is still advancing. If you really fall into any trap, you won't be able to resist for long. Do you understand?"

Seeing Wang Qiu say this, Liu Chuan could only nod. The master and disciple arrived at the large courtyard where the old man was. Liu Chuan subconsciously wanted to push open the door but was stopped by Wang Qiu.

Wang Qiu raised his palm. Spiritual qi continuously condensed in his palm, forming a ball of qi that struck at the door, shattering it.

Strangely, after the ball of spiritual qi broke the door, the fragments of the door instantly turned into a ball of black smoke.

Liu Chuan gasped when he saw this. The door was also covered in poison. If he had reached out to touch it without permission just now, he would probably have been able to save his life now. He would probably have been crippled in the future.

"Hehehe!"

The old man's laughter came from the courtyard. He slowly walked out from the shadows. Wang Qiu looked at the old man and snorted.

"I didn't expect you to be so bold. As a parasite master, instead of hiding in the dark, you swaggered out. Are you courting death?"

The old man spat on the ground and looked at Wang Qiu in disdain. Then, he raised his right hand and gently tore off the flesh of his right hand. The flesh of his entire hand was torn off.

Without the protection of the skin, the flesh of his left hand was exposed to the air. Other people's flesh was red, but his flesh was purple-black. On a closer look, there were actually countless worms squirming on it. It was extremely disgusting.

Wang Qiu looked at this guy's bloody hand and was shocked.

"You actually used your body to feed the parasite?"

The old man smiled sinisterly and said, "How can one survive in the pugilistic world if one is not ruthless? These youngsters are each more talented than the other. I'm so envious!"

Wang Qiu stretched out his hand and pointed with his sword finger. A stream of spiritual qi surged out and shot towards a tree branch beside him. A tree branch fell and was sucked into his hand out of thin air.

"Since you're not going to surrender, take this!"

As soon as Wang Qiu finished speaking, he waved the branch in his hand and attacked. The two of them instantly stood together. For a moment, the wind blew everywhere and spiritual qi filled the sky.
