Yun Shan, the Dou Zong
As Yun Leng blew, a strange, sharp sound suddenly emanated from the flute.
The piercing sound of the flute instantly reverberated throughout the entire Jia Ma Holy City.
Immediately following, another sharp whistle rang out outside the Jia Ma Sacred City, spreading into the distance.
Upon hearing this peculiar flute music, Jia Xing Tian and Fa Ma, who had been squinting, exchanged a glance, then suddenly remembered something, their pupils contracting sharply.
That old bastard from Yun Shan is still alive!
As Jia Xing Tian and Fa Ma's eyes changed, a powerful aura suddenly emerged from the depths of the Misty Cloud Sect.
The instant this aura appeared, a streak of light shot swiftly from the deep mountains toward the Jia Ma Sacred City.
Strangely, along with the high-speed movement of this white streak of light, a cloud of black mist followed closely around it.
From the rapidly moving black mist came the sinister voice of Wu Protector: "I was originally planning to teach you the Soul Hall Secret Technique so that the members of your Misty Cloud Sect could quickly improve their strength, but it seems there's no need to rush."
"You take the initiative to deal with them for a while, and I will seize the opportunity to ambush some of them. Then we will join forces to kill the leaders of these large and small forces, and finally let the enraged Jia Ma Empire and the Cloudrise Empire go to war."
In just a few words, a plan that could cost countless lives was revealed.
Bai Guangnei Yun Shan's speed suddenly increased several notches. With the assistance of the Soul Hall Wu Protector, Misty Cloud Sect would be able to seize the territories of two great empires in one fell swoop, and its power would rise to an unprecedented level.
Seeing Yun Shan's excited expression, Wu Protector remained silent, but in his heart he was thinking about how many Soul Bag he would need to prepare to properly collect all those dead souls.
Perhaps he should eat more, as this could improve his strength.
A short while later, Yun Shan appeared at the Mittel Family headquarters, placed a hand on Yun Leng's shoulder, and looked calmly at Hai Bodong he knew very well.
"Old Sect Master!" Feeling the strong and powerful hand, Yun Leng turned around and was immediately filled with excitement.
"Teacher?!" Yun Yun's graceful and beautiful figure was slightly taken aback. As the Misty Cloud Sect Master, she was surprised that her teacher would emerge from seclusion at this time. A look of doubt appeared on her usually calm and refined face.
Yun Shan ignored Yun Yun and said coldly, "Hai Bodong, I didn't expect that after so many years, you would not only be alive, but also break through to become Dou Zong level expert. I thought you had been killed by Queen Medusa long ago."
"Hehe, aren't you the same, you old codger?" Hai Bodong said casually.
"You were lucky not to die at Queen Medusa's hands, but your luck has run out now that I've broken through my seclusion." Yun Shan glanced at Jia Xing Tian, his voice turning deep. "Now that the Mittel Family has already pledged allegiance to the Cloudrise Empire, Jia Xing Tian, you should know what to do, right?"
Jia Xing Tian hesitated for a moment, then slowly stood up, glaring angrily at Hai Bodong: "Although we have a good relationship, since you have other plans and are preparing to attack the Jia Ma Empire, don't blame us for striking first."
"That's good." Yun Shan laughed loudly, and a dark blue gust of wind that almost pierced the roof suddenly formed, sweeping towards Hai Bodong in the blink of an eye.
Jia Xing Tian then unleashed his powerful Mountain-Splitting Dou Qi, causing the azure gale to glow with an earthy yellow light.
Hai Bodong clenched his fist, and a dozen snow-white circular ice blades, each half a zhang wide, suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of him. As they spun at high speed, they left afterimages and emitted a series of whistling sounds.
The attacks from Yun Shan and Jia Xing Tian collided with the snow-white ice blade, failing to get any closer before stopping in front of it.
"Don't destroy my Mittel Family's property." Hai Bodong's figure flashed, carrying more than a dozen ice blades as he flew out of the window.
It seems that Hai Bodong will take a few minutes longer to break through to the Dou Zong than I will. Yun Shan was startled, and then quickly chased after Hai Bodong.
He not only has Jia Xing Tian to help him, but also the Soul Hall Wu Protector. Even if Hai Bodong breaks through to the Two-Star Dou Zong, he will definitely die.
With the three leaving, only Xiao Yan and Teng Shan, the two who wanted to forge an alliance, remained in the hall.
"Teng Shan, your Mittel Family is really courting death!" Yun Leng sneered. As long as Yun Yun makes a move later, the two of them will die without a burial place.
The sudden turn of events immediately perked up Nalan Jie and Nalan Su, who looked at Xiao Yan with a half-smile.
Now that his powerful backer Hai Bodong is being held back by Yun Shan and Jia Xing Tian, he might soon perish at their hands. This kid probably won't live much longer either. They've really worried for nothing.
Nalan Yanran looked at Xiao Yan with a complicated expression. This guy probably never expected that his grandmaster Yun Shan would also break through to become Dou Zong powerhouse. It seems that there won't be a good outcome for him next.
"Xiao Yan, you have good talent. If you are willing to serve the Misty Cloud Sect now, you might become Alchemist like the Pill King Gu He in the future," Nalan Yanran said in a light and crisp voice.
Nalan Jie's expression suddenly changed, and he angrily rebuked, "Yanran, I see that you are somewhat shocked and confused after seeing Dou Zong expert for the first time. You must not talk nonsense again!"
Nalan Yanran was startled by the scolding and lowered her head in shame, not daring to look at Xiao Yan.
"Sect Master, please hurry and deal with these two." Yun Leng couldn't help but urge, "Although the old sect master is Dou Zong expert and has Jia Xing Tian's assistance, if there is another Dou Emperor to help, I believe it will be easier to kill Hai Bodong."
Yun Yun glanced coldly at Xiao Yan and the other two, her gaze finally settling on Teng Shan: "You should commit suicide. As for the rest, I won't bully the weak."
"The outcome is still uncertain, Sect Master Yun, don't be too happy too soon," Teng Shan said without any fear.
Mu Chen, who had been observing from the sidelines, was somewhat surprised by Teng Shan's actions. Although Teng Shan was quite strong, the chances of him defeating Yun Leng were only about 50/50, let alone dealing with Yun Yun. Where did he get his confidence?
Mu Chen smiled and said, "He is, after all, a Dou Wang expert. Why waste his time, Sect Master Yun?"
"Mu Clan said makes some sense." Yun Yun nodded, somewhat tempted. "If we are willing to join the Misty Cloud Sect, we can be spared from death."
Teng Shan was speechless. If Hai Bodong really died at Yun Shan's hands, how could the Mittel Family possibly serve the Misty Cloud Sect? If they did that, how could they ever hold their heads high in the Jia Ma Empire again?
"I didn't expect Yun Shan to be so decisive, yet it has produced such an indecisive disciple. If you won't make a move, I will."
A sinister voice suddenly rang out in the hall, followed by a surge of thick black mist, and black chains shot out like venomous snakes toward Teng Shan, Xiao Yan, and the others.
