Nice Stealing, Ma Liang!
Seeing that the time for the daily curse-killing had arrived, the Great Sage did not hesitate at all. He immediately used the Dark Moon Mark to prepare to curse and kill a powerful Snake Clan member.
The Great Sage activated the Dark Moon Mark, whose power was Supreme and irresistible to the Snake Spirit Clan.
At this moment, the Dark Moon Mark was activated, and the Great Sage's face remained expressionless. As a member of the Dark Moon Clan, the Great Sage did not care about life or death at all. Apart from the Holy One, there was probably no one or nothing in this world that the Dark Moon Clan cared about.
Just as the Great Sage was about to activate the Dark Moon Mark to kill the Serpent Spirit, he suddenly received a message from She Meng.
"Great Sage, do not act... News of Holy One has arrived!"
The moment this message arrived, the Great Sage almost accidentally activated all the Dark Moon Marks, sending the entire Snake Spirit Clan to their doom.
What the heck?
Is there news of Holy One?
Did She Meng really find the Holy One?
Or is She Meng's side just talking nonsense?
Was he simply trying to stop the powerful member of the Snake Clan from cursing him?
Therefore, the Great Sage warned She Meng immediately that if She Meng dared to speak nonsense, he would immediately curse and kill She Kui!
She Kui: "???"
The Great Sage's message could also be seen by the She Kui... The She Kui were dumbfounded...
Um... Great Sage, are you being reasonable? Even if the information is wrong, it's She Meng who's at fault... I, She Kui, didn't do anything!
While She Kui was completely bewildered, She Meng immediately declared, "I, She Meng, am willing to guarantee with She Kui's life that it is absolutely true!"
She Kui: "???"
She Kui was stunned... Chieftain... The deputy chieftain's life is also a life...
Although the news from the Fox Clan sounds very much like the Holy One Chu Xinghe we're looking for.
But there's always the possibility of unforeseen circumstances... so we don't need to be so decisive... we can be more tactful... otherwise, if something goes wrong, I, She Kui, am definitely doomed.
She Meng dared not delay and immediately informed the Great Sage of the news from the Fox Clan.
A few days ago, an unidentified individual suddenly appeared in the Fox Clan. This individual was a tailless Fox Clan... and called himself Hu Xinghe...
Hu Xinghe... Chu Xinghe... Listen to this, apart from the differences, everything else is the same!
Are they exactly the same?
Upon hearing the explanation from the She Meng, the Great Sage was instantly overjoyed.
The order was given to the Snake Clan: regardless of the circumstances, they must immediately go to the Fox Clan to verify the Holy One's identity. Once confirmed as the Holy One, all Snake Spirit Clan must unconditionally obey all of the Holy One's orders. However, remember, ensuring the Holy One's safety is the top priority.
No matter the cost to the Snake Clan, they must ensure the Holy One's safety!
The Vast Heaven Sect to be filled with joy every day, but ever since Senior Brother Xinghe went missing, all the sects have been listless.
I heard that the spirit fields at the Spirit Crane Palace have all been abandoned... These past few days, everyone in the Muyue Kingdom has become like Mu Xiaoqi, choosing to lie down due to excessive grief.
Ouyang Ming immediately closed the Artifact Refining Palace, indicating that he had no intention of forging anything, and even declared that if Senior Brother Xinghe were gone... then Ouyang Ming would never forge any spiritual weapons again.
As a result, Ouyang Ming immediately berated Ouyang Ling for his words.
Ouyang Ling said, "Brother, are you talking about our grandpa here?"
What? Senior Brother Xinghe is gone? Senior Brother Xinghe is incredibly lucky and has a long life. Even if he went to the Demon Star Continent, he would definitely be able to occupy a place there. I, Ouyang Ling, don't know whether others go to the Demon Star Continent or not.
But after a while, someone told me that the new ruler of the Demon Star Continent was Senior Brother Xinghe, and I didn't find this news outrageous at all.
So bro, you better shut up. If you keep spouting nonsense, don't blame me for drugging you to shut you up!
Not only within the Vast Heaven Sect, but it is said that although the Vast Heaven Sect's industries in various places are still operating, they are running listlessly.
Every day, everyone is frantically trying to find out if there's any new news about Senior Brother Xinghe.
But as the days went by, there was still no news from Senior Brother Xinghe, and the entire Vast Heaven Sect was in a state of desolation.
Gu Mingchao could no longer concentrate on painting and Watch Quietly as Things Change... As the sect leader, Gu Mingchao had to support the entire sect at this moment.
But faced with the current situation of the Vast Heaven Sect, Gu Mingchao couldn't help but sigh... Xinghe had truly devoted himself to the sect in the past.
Look at the Vast Heaven Sect now that Xinghe is gone. Even I, Gu Mingchao, can't just Watch Quietly as Things Change... This is too difficult.
Just as Gu Mingchao was lamenting that life would be meaningless if one could not Watch Quietly as Things Changes, the Great Sage rushed all the way to the Haotian Palace.
Without even bothering to announce his arrival, the Great Sage charged straight in!
"News of Holy One! News of Holy One!"
The Great Sage arrived at the Haotian Grand Hall shouting all the way. At that moment, Gu Mingchao and many elders, who were discussing matters, all stood up upon hearing the news.
Everyone stared wide-eyed as the Great Sage burst in from outside, looking like a madman!
The Grand Elder flashed to the Great Sage's side, grabbed the Great Sage's arm, and glared at Great Sage with bloodshot eyes.
"What... what did you say?"
"There's news about the Holy One... there's news!"
The Great Sage repeated himself, and as soon as Great Sage spoke, the entire Haotian Grand Hall erupted in chaos!
All the elders swarmed around at once.
"Any news from Xinghe?"
"Xinghe is back?"
How is Xinghe doing now?
Is Xinghe safe?
"Xinghe didn't suffer, did he...?"
The elders were all talking at once, making the entire Haotian Grand Hall more chaotic than a vegetable market.
"Silence!" Gu Mingchao instantly activated his Martial God, forcefully silencing all the chattering elders.
Finally Gu Mingchao suppressed his excitement and approached the Great Sage.
"Please, Great Sage, explain in detail!"
The Great Sage didn't keep everyone in suspense; he directly relayed the message from the Serpent Spirit to everyone without hesitation...
But after hearing the Great Sage's words, before anyone else could speak, Ma Liang, who had come to attend the meeting temporarily, jumped up!
"Hu Xinghe! That's right! Hu Xinghe is Senior Brother Xinghe! It's Fox-Pattern Mask! Senior Brother Xinghe must have used Fox-Pattern Mask!"
Ma Liang's roar instantly attracted everyone's attention, including the Great Sage, who looked at Ma Liang with a face full of ecstasy.
To be honest, are Hu Xinghe and Chu Xinghe really the same? The Great Sage knows they might be somewhat different...
The Fox Clan sent the Snake Clan to identify a Fox Clan, but the Holy One is Human Race... The Holy One shouldn't be Fox Clan... But the Great Sage was so eager to get information about the Holy One that he ignored all the details and only wanted to believe that this was the Holy One.
At that very moment, as soon as Ma Liang spoke, the Great Sage knew... this game was absolutely won!
Fox-Pattern Mask... The Holy One possesses Fox-Pattern Mask; no wonder the Fox Clan wanted the Snake Clan Fox Clan identify whether someone was one of their own... It's all because of the Fox-Pattern Mask...
The Holy One must have used Fox-Pattern Mask, Fox Clan couldn't discern Holy One true form, which is why they sent the Snake Clan.
As Ma Liang recounted how Senior Brother Xinghe had taken the Fox-Pattern Mask he had stolen from the Vast Heaven Treasury, the entire Haotian Grand Hall erupted in excitement.
What? You're asking why no one is asking about Ma Liang stealing the treasure vault?
Compared to the news about Xinghe, is Ma Liang stealing the treasure vault even a big deal?
Today, Ma Liang practically emptied our Vast Heaven Sect... If we could bring back Xinghe, I doubt any of the Vast Heaven Sect leaders present would have any objections.
As for those resources, if our Vast Heaven Sect loses them, so be it... As long as Xinghe returns, we'll get those resources back in no time!
Therefore, Ma Liang became the first disciple in the history of the Vast Heaven Sect to be praised by the sect leader and many elders for stealing from the treasure vault...
The sect leader immediately stated that Ma Liang was perfectly fine... If Ma Liang hadn't stolen the Fox-Pattern Mask from the Fox-Pattern Mask vault, Xinghe probably wouldn't have been able to obtain it. Without the Fox-Pattern Mask, Xinghe wouldn't have been able to hide his identity from the Demon Race. Once his identity was exposed, Xinghe would likely have been killed by the Demon Race.
Therefore, Ma Liang's Fox-Pattern Mask, which he used to steal the treasure vault, was essentially helping Xinghe in a roundabout way... Ma Liang should be rewarded for this!
The Grand Elder also agreed with the Sect Master!
The other elders also nodded in agreement, saying that Ma Liang had done a good job!
Then the Grand Elder personally brought a chair for the Great Sage. When the Great Sage sat down and told everyone present the information he had received from the Serpent Spirit, the scene immediately fell into dead silence.
What the heck?
Great Sage, you subdued the Snake Spirit Clan a few days ago?
Isn't this a bit too outrageous?
When Xinghe relayed the message from the Demon Race, he did mention the Great Sage subduing the snake spirit. However, at the time, everyone's focus was on the Two Continents Passage, so they subconsciously assumed that the Great Sage had subdued a powerful snake spirit and obtained the information from him.
But now everyone is realizing... that's not actually the case...
Did this Great Sage just take over the entire Snake Spirit Clan?
In other words, the entire Snake Spirit Clan is now under the Great Sage's command?
Isn't this a bit too outrageous?
Everyone knows the Great Sage's methods are unbelievable, but isn't this one a bit too unbelievable?
The Snake Spirit Clan is one of the eight major Demon Race, meaning that even before the Two Continents Passage has opened, the Dark Moon Clan has already single-handedly taken down one of the eight major clans...
The entire Snake Spirit Clan has now surrendered...
This isn't a question of whether they want to rebel or not; they only have two paths: submit or die...
The Snake Spirit Clan wouldn't be so willing to sacrifice the entire clan for the sake of the Demon Race, would they?
Therefore, the Snake Clan is now essentially under the jurisdiction of the Vast Heaven Sect.
Although the entire Snake Spirit Clan had been taken in by the Great Sage in an absurdly extreme way, this was not the time to consider that. Everyone just wanted to know what was going on on the other side of the Xinghe.
Is Xinghe safe?
Is Xinghe alright...?
When will Xinghe return...?
Can sacrificing the entire Snake Spirit Clan bring back the Xinghe?
If possible, please, Great Sage, quickly sacrifice the entire Snake Spirit Clan...
