The Only One You Can Trust Is Me

The final round of the Sword Discussion Assembly tournament officially began the following morning.

Today is the day to determine the true number one in the world, so the largest number of spectators have come here today. Not only have the people of Tu Province City turned out in droves, but even some officials and wealthy merchants from Tu Province surrounding areas have come here to watch. The area around Primordial Azure Mountain's Arena is packed with people, some even standing on the edge of the mountaintop plaza.

In fact, these top masters don't need to fight for very long. Apart from the fist and foot fighting school, which focuses on internal energy cultivation and is known for its solid foundation, the other top masters in the world usually decide the winner after just a few moves.

Through these days of competition, the finalists are basically familiar with each other's cultivation levels and skills, so there's no need for further probing before they go into battle; they can simply unleash their full potential and go all out.

Especially in the competition for the title of the world's number one swordsman, the number one swordsman of the Great Xia Kingdom and the former Upper Beauty Sword God both only made one move before the number one swordsman of the Great Xia Kingdom was narrowly defeated by the former Sword God.

Compared to Li Xianjing, he was too young. Li Xianjing had also received help from the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable, making further progress. It was normal for the Great Xia Swordsman's swordsmanship to lag behind.

However, after the competition, Li Xianjing warmly invited him to pay homage to the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable, asking the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable to help him break through in a dream, and then they agreed to compete again. The number one swordsman of the Great Xia readily agreed.

By noon, even the final competition, the "Number One Hidden Weapon in the World," had concluded. Amidst thunderous applause, the Imperial Advisor Fishing Elder, announced the winners and bestowed Imperial Court honors upon the other outstanding martial artists.

But amidst this joyful time, one person in the audience was very anxious.

"Where have all our men gone? Haven't they arrived yet?"

The Cult Leader, disguised as an old man, was sweating profusely, stamping his feet and pacing back and forth, asking the child beside him a question.

"I told them to gather here early in the morning, and now it's fucking noon, where are they?"

"I haven't arrived yet. There's no signal, and I haven't seen anyone come looking for me."

Bai Li held the old man's hand and said with a wry smile, "Cult Leader, we may have been betrayed. In this operation, apart from the two of us, everyone else was an undercover agent sent by Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable."

Damn it!

The Cult Leader of the Blood's Delight Sect had a gloomy expression.

"If I can get back this time, I'm going to find them one by one and kill them all!"

"Please calm down, Cult Leader."

Bai Li paused, then said hesitantly, "Cult Leader, things have escalated to this point; there's no way to salvage the situation. Perhaps we should retreat for now..."

Upon hearing this, the Cult Leader's face grew even darker, turning as black as the bottom of a pot.

If he could, he would certainly want to run away, but as the leader of the Blood Hatred Consciousness Demon's Religious Sect in the Material World, his every move was closely watched, and he also had a very close connection with the Blood Hatred Consciousness Demon in the Consciousness Domain.

Moreover, the wooden box he's carrying on his back contains the weapon of the Blood Hatred Consciousness Demon.

Now, the Cult Leader could hear endless curses and fury coming from the Blood Hatred Consciousness Demon in the Consciousness Domain, constantly urging him to draw his Demon Sword and wreak havoc in the Sword Discussion Assembly arena protected by the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable, severely humiliating the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable.

Although the Cult Leader now sounds like an annoying woman nagging in your ear, he knows that once he makes a clear act of resistance, the Divine Sword on his back will transform from a powerful ally into his most terrifying enemy, bursting out of its box and severing his head first.

Women are so annoying!

Even a devout believer like the Cult Leader couldn't avoid experiencing such emotions at that moment.

"No, we cannot disobey the command of the True God."

Suppressing the bitterness in his heart, he could only feign composure and righteous indignation as he said to Bai Li, "My dear brother, you are my last and most Loyalty comrade-in-arms. I am not commanding you as the Cult Leader of the sect, but as a brother and sister living under the same True God. Please, please accompany me to the end and witness my final moments... If we are fortunate enough to complete the True God's mission and return alive together, I will promote you to be the second person in the Religious Sect after me. If we both unfortunately die on this glorious path, then I will drink with you in the True God's Divine Kingdom, the wine brewed from the blood of our enemies."

After a pause, the Cult Leader added, "If I die, and you are fortunate enough to survive, then by taking the Divine Sword from my back, you will be the next Cult Leader of the Blood's Delight Sect!"

"Cult Leader..."

Tears welled up in Bai Li's eyes. He seemed to understand something, wiped away his tears, and said earnestly, "I, Bai Li, will definitely stay with you until the very end!"

"Ha, that's good. With you here, I can keep going!"

Seeing that the Fishing Elder on the platform had begun to present the crowns representing honor to the top experts, the Cult Leader immediately stopped hesitating, reached out and patted his back, and the Blood Hatred Demon Sword burst out of its box!

A streak of blood-red light pierced the Firmament, even obscuring the sun's rays. The Cult Leader, wielding a Giant Sword with a blade over two meters long, shouted at Bai Li, "Crouch down!"

Bai Li obeyed and lay down on the ground, while the Cult Leader, holding the Giant Sword, circled around him.

Laugh!

The people surrounding him, within the sword's encirclement, were sliced in two by the Giant Sword before they could even figure out what was happening. Blood spurted out as their upper and lower bodies were separated, spraying blood like rain.

"Ah-- Murder!"

The crowd screamed and ran in all directions, but the scene was too crowded for them to outrun the Cult Leader. They were quickly caught up and slaughtered like wheat being harvested.

"They're Cultist!"

The Imperial Advisor, the Fishing Elder, on the stands, saw the old man wielding the Giant Sword and immediately shouted, "Guards! Stop him!"

The Imperial Court guards leaped from the platform, using their lightness skills to land beside the old man. However, the Cult Leader, wielding a divine Divine Sword, was unstoppable. With a single swing, a blood-red Sword Qi swirled around him, knocking the guards away, killing or wounding them.

Seeing that the Cult Leader was unstoppable, even some highly skilled Jianghu artists were easily killed by him like chickens and dogs, at this moment, the Statue the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Venerable at the highest point of the stands suddenly moved.

He raised his hand and released a beam of light. The horrific scene of blood flowing like a river and hundreds of corpses Time Reversal had reversed, and the old man holding the Divine Sword was also returned to the moment he had just struck the box, seemingly Consciousness what had happened.

But this miracle was witnessed by all the surviving people present. Just as the old man raised his hand, about to slap the box, the Fishing Elder immediately took out his weapon, swung his fishing rod, and the fishing line wrapped around the Cult Leader's arm.

"You fiend, how dare you cause trouble here! Defeat him!"
