Taking the Blame and Sowing Discord

When Kong Wenxuan first advanced to the Foundation Establishment Realm, his five "Five Elements Five Elements Divine Swords" were only First Tier Law Artifact. He also encountered many enemies who had defensive Spirit Artifact that blocked his sword attacks.

However, Kong Wenxuan possessed five "Five Elements Divine Swords," each embodying one of the five elements. If one divine sword could not break through the enemy's defensive Spirit Artifact, he would use all five in succession, eventually managing to break through the enemy's defenses.

Moreover, he also possesses the deadly move "Lesser Five Elements Sword Formation". Usually, once an enemy falls into the "Lesser Five Elements Sword Formation", no matter how many defensive Spirit Artifact they have, they will find it difficult to withstand the continuous attacks and annihilation of the "Lesser Five Elements Sword Formation", and in the end, the enemy will always be killed.

Therefore, his use of the divine power of the five "Five Elements Divine Swords" was always straightforward, with almost no research or improvement.

The eldest uncle Kong Yushuo, only forged one "Crimson Fire Divine Sword". When facing the Spirit Artifact defense of enemies of the same level, the "Crimson Fire Divine Sword" has a fast attack speed, often leaving the enemy no time to react. However, as long as the enemy activates the defense of the "defense Spirit Artifact" in advance, this Law Artifact- level "Crimson Fire Divine Sword" will basically be unable to kill the enemy in one blow.

Since my uncle didn't have any other "Five Elements Divine Swords" to use with him, nor any killing moves like the "Lesser Five Elements Sword Formation," he did spend the past two years of cultivation and combat researching and developing the power of the "Crimson Fire Divine Sword Qi Thunderclap, thus enhancing its power.

This short-range, high-frequency rapid attack was clearly a method that my uncle had researched and developed, and the results were surprisingly good.

"Die!"

At this moment, the last remaining Foundation Establishment cultivator among the charging cultivators watched as his two companions of the same level were swiftly slaughtered by the two members of the Kong Household like cutting melons and vegetables. His face was filled with terror, despair, and rage.

Knowing he had no chance of escape, he didn't turn to flee. Instead, he roared and unleashed a burst of lightning, charging towards his uncle, Kong Yushuo, almost as if committing suicide.

Lili!

Just then, another Peacock cry rang out.

However, this time it wasn't his uncle Kong Yushuo who made the move, but Kong Wenxuan. He also summoned the "Crimson Fire Divine Sword," and a crimson Peacock appeared on it, raising its head and singing a clear song, spreading its wings and displaying its tail feathers. The illusion he cast immediately enveloped the last Foundation Establishment cultivator who launched a suicidal attack.

The Foundation Establishment cultivator, surrounded by lightning, was instantly trapped in an illusion, momentarily stunned.

That one instant was enough; Kong Wenxuan's "Crimson Fire Divine Sword" had already broken the sound barrier and struck his opponent first.

Moreover, the instant he struck his opponent, Kong Wenxuan also activated the "Crimson Fire Divine Sword" to unleash hundreds of rapid, high-frequency attacks in a flash, instantly shattering all of his opponent's defenses and techniques, cleaving him in two and killing him on the spot.

Kong Wenxuan's cultivation level was higher than that of his uncle Kong Yushuo. The "Crimson Fire Divine Sword" was a "bloodline magic Law Artifact" forged with Bloodline Divine Ability, which was even stronger than a "natal magic Law Artifact". He could activate and control it at will without any difficulty.

Therefore, after witnessing his uncle's high-frequency thunderous attacks, Kong Wenxuan was able to unleash the same techniques almost without any research or practice.

Furthermore, because his cultivation level was higher than his uncle's and he had refined the "Crimson Fire Divine Sword" for a longer time, he could unleash this high-frequency attack at a faster speed and with greater power, capable of unleashing hundreds of sword strikes in an instant.

Its power, though far less than that of the Second Tier "White Metal Divine Sword" which Refining the Sword into Threads, has the advantage of being fast enough!

In ordinary battles between opponents of the same level, it is sufficient.

Boom! Boom! Rumble...

At this moment, another thunderous sound rang out. It was the attack launched by Uncle Kong Yushuo's "Crimson Fire Divine Sword," which, like a streak of crimson lightning, rushed into the Qi Refinement cultivators following behind the three Foundation Establishment cultivators.

More than a dozen Qi Refinement cultivators were killed on the spot before they could even react.

Upon seeing this, Kong Wenxuan couldn't help but smile and look at his uncle, saying, "Uncle, impressive! Now I know where you got the title ' Lesser Thunderclap Swordsman '!"

Uncle Kong Yushuo gave a wry smile upon hearing this and said, "Nephew Wenxuan, please don't make fun of me. What ' Lesser Thunderclap Swordsman '? If it weren't for you here this time, I'm afraid I would have been defeated."

"I never expected that even at this point, these people would still have the leisure to ambush me, and even manage to obtain such a powerful Second Tier Lightning-Fire Spirit Formation!"

As he spoke, the eldest uncle began to quickly clean up the battlefield, stripping the Law Artifact and Spirit Artifact from the bodies of the slain cultivators and searching out the Storage Bag they had hidden on their persons.

"Uncle, who are these people? Do you know them?" Kong Wenxuan quickly joined in cleaning up the battlefield and asked his uncle.

"Who else could they be? They're mostly members of wild Bloodline Lineage who have settled and live outside the Great Wall." The eldest uncle said while searching through his Storage Bag, "Two years ago, after I Foundation Establishment, I often came to these southern mountains to survey the terrain and find suitable land for the Lineage to expand its territory."

"At that time, it was also the time when these various Bloodline Lineage living outside the pass returned from their hiding places. They were also running around in these southern mountains, searching for and scavenging resources and spiritual objects, looking for opportunities to pick up bargains."

"As a result, some conflicts inevitably broke out between us."

"With the ' Crimson Fire Divine Sword ' in hand, Sword Qi Thunderclap energy accompanied by thunderous roars, these Bloodline Lineage from beyond the pass, who barely even have Foundation Establishment cultivators, are naturally no match for me. After many battles with me, they have suffered considerable losses, which has earned me the nickname ' Lesser Thunderclap Swordsman.'"

"Unexpectedly, rumors are now rampant both inside and outside Demon-Suppressing Pass. It's clear that someone has their eyes on these wild Bloodline Lineage from beyond the pass. They're not worried about their own safety, yet they have the leisure to ambush and retaliate against me!"

As he spoke, Uncle Kong Yushuo couldn't help but curse his bad luck under his breath.

Upon hearing this, Kong Wenxuan seemed to ponder for a moment and said, "Uncle, do you think it's possible that these people believe you deliberately spread the rumors that are circulating inside and outside Demon-Suppressing Pass, and that our Kong Household has set its sights on these wild Bloodline Lineage from outside the pass, so they want to strike us first?"

"Perfect timing! Our Kong Household is a newly promoted Ninth-Grade True Spirit Lineage. Our next step is to expand our territory and establish our own domain and county in these southern mountains."

"And in these mountains to the south, what place is more suitable for development and building a county town than the ancestral land that these wild- Bloodline Lineage from beyond the Great Wall have already cultivated and managed for many years?"

"Why would we even look at their dilapidated place!" Uncle Kong Yushuo sneered.

Kong Wenxuan replied, "We may look down on them, but these wild Bloodline Lineage might not think so. In their eyes, their ancestral lands might be the best targets for expansion."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Kong Yushuo's expression changed several times, and he said in a deep voice, "Wenxuan, do you mean we've been made a scapegoat?"

Kong Wenxuan, however, remained solemn and said, "If it's just about taking the blame, that's fine. My only concern is that someone is deliberately stirring things up!"
