Li Sikong quickly returned to Jian'an Cave. As soon as he arrived in Jian'an Cave, a strange smell filled the air. Li Sikong, who was always cautious, did not return directly to Jian'an Cave, but came to Lanyue Cave near Jian'an Cave. At the meeting point, the last time the Zhonggui came to snatch the Yuquan Crystal, Li Sikong placed many people near the Jian'an Cave.
But when he arrived at the stronghold, Li Sikong found that none of the Lanyue Dongtian disciples in the stronghold were missing. Seeing this, Li Sikong immediately went to the Jian'an Dongtian Sect. He knew in his heart that these people were selected by him personally. , directly under his command, there will definitely be no other elders from Lanyue Cave Heaven making deployments without notifying him, so there can only be one reason, and that is that something happened again in Jian'an Cave Heaven.
Just after flying over Jian'an Cave Sky, he saw the scene of various mana lights colliding with each other in the square of Jian'an Cave Sky in the distance. In this way, Li Sikong pushed his speed to the extreme.
The sect master of Jian'an Cave, Hua Min, led his elders and disciples and once again showed the form of Shennong's bloodline to greet the enemy. However, the opponent's number was too large, and Jian'an Cave gradually showed its defeat.
Just when everyone was fighting, dozens of black flying knives suddenly flew out of nowhere. Each flying knife did not reflect the slightest light under the scorching sun. It was like a thin black line coming from all directions, carrying The sound of breaking through the sky will also take away a human life. The earth is like a chopping board, and the enemy is like fish meat. They have been slaughtered without seeing anyone coming. For a moment, the thin black threads running horizontally formed a huge web symbolizing death.
The leader of the incoming enemy had the upper hand, but suddenly several of his companions died beside him. Only then did he realize that someone else was coming to support him. When he wanted to look back, the leader of the Huayang clan in the form of Shennong's bloodline stepped forward with sharp claws. Forced to get entangled with him, he had no time to care about anything else.
The rest of those who were fighting with the Jian'an Dongtian disciples were also aware of Li Sikong's existence, but at this time, Li Sikong had flown closer and fully participated in the battle.
Although the leader was fighting with Hua Yan at this time, he had already made a rough judgment in his mind and reminded his companions loudly: "With such an agile body and a thin and sharp black blade, this person must be Li Sikong. Everyone should be careful about him. Throwing knives."
As soon as he finished speaking, several elders in black robes from the other side immediately surrounded Li Sikong and fought closely with him to make it difficult for his flying knives to take advantage.
Li Sikong was entangled by several masters at the same time. He was worried for a moment. The distance was too close. How could his flying knife hurt so many masters with similar cultivation levels to him at the same time?
Just when everyone thought they had succeeded, the two elders closest to Li Sikong suddenly burst out a column of blood on their necks, causing the two of them to flip backwards several times before falling to the ground. The remaining black elders Elder Pao, all movements stopped. No one saw Li Sikong's movements clearly, let alone the direction of his flying knife. They were covered in haze, and there was a trace of fear in their hearts, because they did not see what Li Sikong was. How to take action.
At this moment, the man who was fighting with Hua Min had stopped. The disciples from both sides stood in two places, just staring at each other cautiously, and did not continue fighting.
No one thought that Li Sikong's appearance would bring the battle to a stalemate.
Sect Master Huayan looked at the man opposite him who had fought with him for dozens of rounds, and said, "My friend, after fighting for so long, don't you want to meet him in his true form?"
The man sneered, raised his head, first
He raised his hand and took off his hat, revealing his old face, and then simply took off his black robe. As he did this, all the elders on his left and right followed suit and took off their black robes. Each one had a capable figure and was as thin as a black snake. stand in a line.
Sect Master Hua Yang carefully looked at the people in front of him and said, "Hua doesn't know you, please state your name first."
The leader said with a cold face: "Master Huayan, I am Du Chuan, the master of Zhanyang Sect."
"Zhanyang Sect?" Hua Yang thought to himself. He had never heard of this sect, and he was sure that he had no quarrel with this sect. He continued to ask, "I wonder which cave your sect belongs to?"
Hearing this question from Sect Master Huayan, Du Chuan laughed out loud and said, "It's Nankui Dongtian who was just exterminated. Sect Master Zhonggui and I are close friends."
This sentence made Sect Master Huayan suddenly understand. He originally thought that the other party was also coveting the Yuquan Crystal. Upon hearing this, it seemed that the other party was here to seek revenge.
Sect Master Hua Yang asked: "I dare to ask Sect Master Du why he came here today, but why did he raise an army to investigate?"
"You killed more than a thousand members of my brother Zhong Gui's sect. Shouldn't I come to ask for an explanation on his behalf?" Du Chuan asked in return.
After Du Chuan finished speaking, Li Sikong burst out laughing. Du Chuan looked strange and asked, "Who are you and why are you laughing?"
Li Sikong said: "It's easy to talk, but I'm not very talented. The elder of Lanyue Cave, Li Sikong."
Sect Leader Du Chuan continued: "This is a matter between Jian'an Dongtian and me. What does it have to do with you? Why were you laughing just now?"
Li Sikong immediately replied: "It is said that like-minded people make peace. When there is an injustice on the road, someone will naturally draw a sword to help. What does it have to do with me? Besides, I naturally find it funny that you are smooth-minded and being taken advantage of."
After hearing this, Sect Leader Du Chuan still thought about his words and continued to ask: "Please explain it more clearly."
Li Sikong smiled again and said: "I don't know who ordered the Zhonggui Sect Master to come to Jian'an Cave to snatch the Yuquan Crystal. In the end, he was defeated and ran away, leaving one of his arms behind. The price was heavy, but Jian'an Cave He was also seriously injured, and he definitely didn’t have the energy to travel thousands of miles in such a short time to take revenge, let alone have the chance to massacre thousands of Nankui Dongtian disciples and leave without leaving a trace, is this the truth?”
Sect Leader Du Chuan was speechless for a moment by Li Sikong's rhetorical question. He couldn't help but start to think about what Li Sikong said. There was indeed truth in it. He was just eager for revenge and did not have time to think about these details.
Li Sikong looked at Du Chuan's sect leader and knew that he had heard what he said, so he continued: "Think about it, who has the ability to instruct Nankui Dongtian to do things, and who has the ability to massacre the Nankui Dongtian sect? I do too. The disciples went to Nankui Cave to investigate the news. Looking at the corpses of the disciples in Nankui Cave, they are definitely not the work of ordinary caves. You must have also gone to investigate. Now think about it, who has this strength?"
This sentence indeed reminded Sect Leader Du Chuan that when he thought about the corpses of Nankui Dongtian disciples, they were all killed by extremely skilled sword energy. Before that, he had heard Zhong Gui mention that he was in contact with the Cantian Sword Sect. Very secret. In the last conversation, Zhong Gui looked sad, but he never told himself the reason. When thinking of several things together, it seemed more like the Cantian Sword Sect ordered Zhong Gui to kill people after failing to seize the Yuquan Crystal.
Seeing Du Chuan's silence, Sect Leader Hua Yang smiled slightly and asked, "Why?"
So, Sect Master Du Chuan, do you think we should continue to fight? "
Looking at Sect Master Du Chuan again, his face looked ugly at this time, and he said angrily: "If you have offended me today, I will leave first. I will definitely give an explanation to Jian'an Dongtian in the future for what happened today. But if I find out the truth, this will The matter is also related to your construction of Dongtian, and I will definitely come back to fight you to the death."
Sect Leader Hua Yang said: "If this is really the case, I will definitely stay with you until the end."
Sect Master Du Chuan and his party left anyway. Sect Master Hua Yang did not stop them. After the other party left, Jian'an Cave Heaven had returned to human form. Li Sikong looked at Sect Leader Hua Yang and smiled and said, "I'm late again."
However, the Huayan Sect Master felt a little ashamed and said, "Brother Sikong, I'm really sorry. All the Lanyue Cave Heaven disciples stationed in Jian'an Cave Heaven..."
The sad look on Li Sikong's face flashed away, and he turned to comfort: "Master Huayan, don't worry, I have already prepared for this matter, but it happened suddenly, and it is inevitable that Du Chuan will not make any moves again." , I still have to return to Lanyue Cave, personally report the recent events to the sect leader, and then make the next step."
Sect Leader Huayan nodded and said: "From now on, Jian'an Cave Heaven and Lan Yue Cave Heaven are the most solid allies. If Lan Yue Cave Heaven needs my help in any way, everyone from Jian'an Cave Heaven to everyone will go through fire and water. Don’t give up!”
Li Sikong smiled faintly and patted the shoulder of Sect Leader Hua Yang. Sect Leader Hua Yang spoke again: "I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. Please express my apology to Master Xun Zi Zai of Lan Yue Cave for me."
Li Sikong clasped his fists and bowed his hands to bid farewell to the Huayan Sect Master, and then embarked on the road back to Lanyue Cave.
After Li Sikong left, Sect Master Huayang still looked sad. The elder beside him asked: "Is the Sect Master worried about Du Chuan's comeback, or is he apologizing for the disciples who died in Lanyue Cave Sky?"
Sect Master Hua Yao answered: "Both of them, but what I am most worried about now is the Yuquan Crystal. From this point of view, there is a high probability that the Cantian Sword Sect is the mastermind behind the Yuquan Crystal. If this is true, we will How can we protect ourselves?"
"The sect leader is looking for a hiding place for the Yuquan Crystal?" the elder asked tentatively.
Sect Leader Huayan nodded, but he never thought that such an absolutely safe place could avoid the search of Cantian Sword Sect.
"Have you thought of it, Sect Master?" the elder asked carefully again.
The Huayan Sect Leader's lips and teeth were slightly open, but he hesitated to speak, but he still opened his mouth and said to the elder beside him: "Only the Zhenwu Divine Sect or the Shanhai Divine Sect have the ability to protect the Yuquan Crystal."
After hearing the words of Sect Master Huayan, the elder hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Let's not talk about whether these two major divine sects are willing to help. Even if they are willing, what's the difference between us hiding the Yuquan Crystal in these two major divine sects and giving it up? This does not count as saving the Yuquan Crystal.”
Sect Leader Huayan sighed and said, "Why don't I understand this? If Shenzong is willing to help, I don't have to worry."
"Then, what should we do?" the elder asked.
"Let's try asking Shanhai Shenzong for help first!" Sect Master Huayan said with disappointment, turned around and left the place, leaving only a few elders to organize his disciples to clean up the battlefield.
As for Sect Leader Du Chuan, just after he returned to his sect, someone came to visit him again.
