Chapter 283 Kill!That man was the First Palace Leader, Luo Sha. The others stared at one another, obviously voicing no dissent.
Only the Second Palace Leader snorted. “It’s just a few small fries. Why affect all the Palace Leaders? Hey… Hua Mengshi isn’t here? Where has she gone?”
Lan Luo gave a light laugh. “Of course she has her own matters. Everyone ought to do what they should do. But you can’t be too careless. Hua Qiyue isn’t someone easy to deal with.”
“Haha, I heard that you’ve been subdued by Hua Qiyue? Tsk, tsk. How can the 10th Palace Leader of our Dark Sect be so weak? By rights, you should be more powerful than the Fifth Palace Leader. But why you still lose to Hua Qiyue? Aren’t you a bit too useless?”
The Third Palace Leader sneered very impolitely.
Lan Luo raised his brows. “I was indeed defeated by Hua Qiyue. But it’s no insult. If you think I’m poor, I’ll let you guys fight first. You can probe her prowess first and then mock me!”
His words made some of the Palace Leaders laugh out jeeringly. They were all trying to exclude Lan Luo.
Lan Luo was quite poor at inter-people relationships. After all, he had too many women alongside, thus he had a defective character. The other Palace Leaders all thought their “personalities” better than his and had always scorned Lan Luo.
Lan Luo’s true strength was far above the Fifth Palace Leader’s, but he did not ask the Sect Leader to promote him. This was why the other Palace Leaders were unsatisfied with him.
“Of course, you are a shrinking dog, you can only tremble by the side! Don’t act later. Let us fight instead!” The Fifth Palace Leader started to sneer.
Lan Luo jerked the corners of his mouth. He said no more.
This group had never seen Hua Qiyue before and had never experienced her prowess. Hua Qiyue’s true strength was far exceeded her Qi Art level.
“Remember, we must surround and attack Qinghe Inn from all sides. Don’t let a single person escape from our hands!”
The First Palace Leader decided not to embark on an argument. He merely ordered them quietly. He was a cold, nonchalant person. Compared to the Fifth Palace Leader, the latter one was evidently much more petty-minded.
“Reporting to the Palace Leaders: We have received intelligence that Hua Qiyue and her people are now heading for Qinghe Inn!”
At this moment, one of their subordinates entered and reported in a low voice.
The First Palace Leader furrowed his brows. “What’s wrong? How did news-our meeting here leak out? Spy?”
“Let’s put this question aside first. This means that we won’t need to rush to Qinghe Inn. Won’t it save us time? Haha, these small fries must think that they’ve lived too long!”
The Fifth Palace Leader began to laugh complacently.
Lan Luo heard him and merely snickered by the side. These people were like frogs watching the sky from a well, they believed in their own prowess but had yet to meet true experts.
After about 15 minutes, Hua Qiyue and her people had surrounded Yueyun Inn.
Yueyun Inn had long been emptied of its guests. In other words, the inn had been entirely booked by the Dark Sect. Other than the Palace Leaders, there were another 50 disciples, five waiters, the proprietor, and his wife.
But these people were sleeping like logs. They did not know what would happen.
“They come!” The Seventh Palace Leader said in a whisper. He was more steady, but he believed firmly in Lan Luo’s words.
Except for the Seventh and the First Palace Leaders, all the rest had derided Lan Luo. They really looked down on him.
Even though they heard the arrival of Hua Qiyue and her people, they still seemed quite easy and relaxed.
Lan Luo’s countenance fell somewhat. “Should he continue to stand on Hua Qiyue’s side?” He must know the winner of this battle first.
If Hua Qiyue and her people were defeated, Lan Luo would still pretend to be a spy but actually would lean on the Dark Sect’s side.
If the Dark Sect lost, then Lan Luo would take in the overall situation and turn naturally over to Hua Qiyue’s side.
“Nothing else matters, other than one’s life.”
“Let’s go out and receive him. Yueyun Inn is an inn I like very much. I don’t wish to mess the place up with bloodshed!”
The Fifth Palace Leader coldly sneered. Then, he turned and left for the outside. The eyes of the First Palace Leader suddenly fell. He did not wish to reveal the whereabouts of their location, so he could only leap out of the window.
It was a starless and moonless night. Two large, crimson lanterns hung outside by the inn door. They were emanating a faint, reddish light. Hua Qiyue and her friends were standing in front of Yueyun Inn. It was a secluded and quiet inn, indeed suitable for holding a conference.
“Here, right? Oh… see, someone’s out!” Ji Jing’s eyes were sharp. She could see some men in black soaring down.
Hua Qiyue’s expression was indifferent. She nonchalantly stared at the men in black before her.
Yun Shimo’s expression was unruffled as well.
Ji Feng and Ji Jing were slightly curious. These people were all masked. They could not see their faces.
10 of the Palace Leaders flew down and landed. The two teams confronted each other coldly.
Bai Qianxue sat leisurely on the stone bench by the side. His Bai Family would not intervene in such idle business. He would only act when needed.
Hua Qiyue naturally did not take this to heart. She was confident that they would surely win.
Hua Qiyue cast these people a cursory glance but did not notice Hua Mengshi’s figure. After all, they were sisters. She could still tell Hua Mengshi from her figure.
Except for a short woman, the rest were all men.
“Haha, who is Hua Qiyue? Come out!”
This woman was the Sixth Palace Leader. She, too, looked down on Lan Luo. She would naturally make little of Hua Qiyue’s prowess.
The Qi Art of the Sixth Palace Leader had reached the first level of Holy G.o.d. Although she had long heard that Hua Qiyue was at the same level, she was confident that she would triumph over all opponents of this level.
When heard the rudeness of the woman, Yun Shimo and his friends looked unhappy. Xuanji stared coldly at this woman. He was about to act when Hua Qiyue stopped him. “Brother Xuan, allow me. It’s more interesting for women to confront women!”
Otherwise, even if Xuanji won, their opponents would regard it as an unfair fight. After all, it was a man against a woman.
Hua Qiyue took a step out. Yun Shimo quietly raised his brows. Since these people underestimated Hua Qiyue, let her fight and make them suffer.
“Oh, so you are that b.i.t.c.h? Hahaha, such a stinking girl has made Lan Luo cower. Tsk, tsk. You’re too weak, Lan Luo!”
That woman began to laugh complacently. Lan Luo on their side began to take two noiseless steps backward. “Sixth Palace Leader, you are too smug. But I will respect all of you. If you fellows think that Hua Qiyue is easy to deal with, you can confront her first.”
Lan Luo’s action was within Hua Qiyue’s expectation. Hua Qiyue knew that he was a very cunning man.
She had to admit that Lan Luo was very smart. No matter which side survived, he could find a way to salvage himself.
“Haha, Lan Luo, you coward. Better scram from our Dark Sect. The Dark Sect won’t accept members like you!” The Sixth Palace Leader remarked coldly.
“Humph, you’d better defeat Hua Qiyue first before telling me this!” Lan Luo answered coldly.
The other Palace Leaders remained silent. They were all carefully staring at their opposite opponents.
Bai Qianxue, Xuanji and Yun Shimo had disguised their auras. No one could detect the level of their Qi Art.
Only true great masters could conceal their Qi auras.
Hua Qiyue did not hide her strength-the first level of Holy G.o.d. For many, it was too low a level even to mention. Instead, they were guarding against Xuanji and his two friends.
Ji Feng, Ji Jing, and Huangfu Xuan were weaker in Qi Art. They also found opponents at their same level.
“You little b.i.t.c.h, come here. I’ll give you the advantage of 10 moves without retaliation.” The Sixth Palace Leader snickered coldly.
Another arrogant and ignorant woman.
Ji Feng and Ji Jing stared at each other and had to shake their heads.
Xuanji and the others only looked this indifferently. It seemed that nothing could faze them.
Hua Qiyue’s true strength, they believed, would surely crush the Sixth Palace Leader opposite.
“Are all Palace Leaders of the Dark Sect of your caliber? Tsk, tsk. I am very disappointed. All kinds of pride, arrogance, and ignorance… If I haven’t met Princess Chulan, it would be a real eye-opener.” Hua Qiyue smiled faintly, staring straight into her opponent’s eyes.
Before these people, she had no further reason to hide her Spirit Summoning Art.
Because tonight, Hua Qiyue and her friends would like to annihilate all of them.
Even if these people could not match them and tried to run, they could not escape from Yun Shimo’s ma.s.sive array.
“Tonight, these people absolutely could not escape.”
Hua Qiyue stared into the Sixth Palace Leader’s eyes. She coldly parted her lips. “The Spirit Summoning Art!”
The Sixth Palace Leader suffered a big shock. She suddenly felt that Hua Qiyue’s eyes were a multi-layered world. She became dazed, as stunned shouts and bellows from her companions rang out in her ears. Yet she could only hear Hua Qiyue’s voice. “Sixth Palace Leader, kill all your companions!”
It was a quiet order but contained an invincible power. Immediately, she unsheathed the cold sword in her hand, of the spirit weapon category.
In a twinkling of an eye, the Sixth Palace Leader had turned to slay her companions. The First Palace Leader was shocked, angry and scornful. He sneered. “So it’s sorcery. Humph, how dare you try to kill us with the sorcery of this low level?”
The Sixth Palace Leader raised her sword to slash the nearest one to her, the Seventh Palace Leader. The Dark Sect was undergoing internal discord.
“Everyone act. Don’t wait anymore!” The First Palace Leader saw this and gave a loud bellow. He was worried that more surprises would surface. The moment his voice faded, the other nine men immediately hurled at their opponents.
Yun Shimo was combating the First and Ninth Palace Leaders. Xuanji was fighting the Second Palace Leader, Ji Feng, the Third. All in all, there were more people on the Dark Sect’s side. But since the Sixth and Seventh Palace Leaders were fighting each other, Hua Qiyue had no opponent.
She stood by Ji Jing’s side and joined forces with her, fighting shoulder to shoulder.
Ji Jing was facing the Fourth Palace Leader. The man was at the first level of Holy G.o.d. If Ji Jing fought him alone, she would find it quite tough. But with Hua Qiyue alongside her, she immediately found it much easier-going.
“Humph, using sorcery to win. You can’t triumph for long.” The man gave a cold snort and unleashed a palm toward Hua Qiyue. At the same time, his figure suddenly vanished!
“How strange body movements!”
Hua Qiyue knew that the man was adept in body movements. So she pushed Ji Jing aside and relying on her instincts, met his palm with hers. Inky light emanated from her palm, instantly engulfing the airborne man in its midst!
“Ah… “The Fourth Palace Leader felt his entire body seemed penetrated by something. He suffered excruciating pain. All of a sudden, all his spiritual energy in his body vanished.
