Martial Research Master

“Well, I had a bone to pick with one of your members and hence I vowed that I will kill every single Black-Devil church member until I get my hands on him. So here we are, right in front of your deathbed. I honestly don’t want you to suffer, and hence request you to cooperate with me. Who knows, I might even let you live.” Li Meng tried to persuade the guy.

“No matter who offended you in our church, we aren’t coward enough to let you get a hand on our member. I might die today, but my grave will mark the beginning of your destruction. We Black-Devils never forget a grudge.” Yin Luo began to operate his Qi and attacked Li Meng.

Even though Li meng wasn’t practicing body or soul cultivation with equivalent enthusiasm yet, he had still completed two realms of body cultivation. His strength after four metamorphoses was enough to contend with an advanced Qi king. In addition to his Qi, how could Yin Luo be his match?

The two clashed, and Li Meng’s sword was chipping out Yin Luo’s flesh bit by bit. His whole body was riddled with wounds and blood was flowing unceasingly.

“Just give up. I value the information you might have. I will pay a good price for you to just spew out all the mysteries and even let you join my force. I promise I will make you a Qi emperor within the next year if you join me.”

Not only Yin Luo but every practitioner present within the battlefield was surprised by Li meng’s words. They didn’t expect Li Meng to be so resourceful, much less to give Yin Luo such a high valuation.

“I am willing to cooperate and tell all the secrets of the group. Please spare me.” Another peak Qi king shouted. He was on the verge of dying and wanted to grab the last rope of life.

.....

“See, some people know how to make the best of the situation. It’s a pity that he is not talented enough.” Li meng cleaved his sword sideways and a Qi attack landed on the man’s head, blasting it apart. Only two people on the Black-Devil’s side remained.

“I can give you the same amount of information as him. Why are you killing us?” The other surviving Qi King asked. He was on par with Luo in strength and wanted to survive this battle. Now that his partner was dead, he knew his fate was a dead end since the enemy would gang upon him.

“You traitorous bastards. How could you betray the Hall? How could you betray the commander?” Yin Luo harshly cursed at the man.

“Will the hall guarantee my survival from this situation? I am the one responsible for my well being.” The man looked at Li Meng and said. ” I am confident that my clearance is as good as him. I want to keep my life and would request you to spare me. I am willing to disclose all the details regarding our forces in the Misty-ridge.”

Li Meng looked at him and gave him an inscription talisman. ” Mention every detail regarding all your forces, your objectives, the motive with which you have come here. The power of each officer who has arrived in the misty valley as well as the details regarding your commander.”

“You have to promise that you will let me go.” The man said. Yin Luo was too angry and attacked the man, but Li Meng simply waved his sword pushing Yin Luo back.

“Let him do his job. He ought to survive. Unlike you, some people are intelligent enough to understand the situation they are in.” Li Meng’stone was full of mockery.

“I promise.” The man began to inscribe every detail known to him and handed the slate to Li Meng who immediately used his QI to read the content. The details were incredibly thorough and he came to understand the reason why they came here. It turns out that there is a treasure within the Misty Valley that they need to procure.

Unfortunately, the man didn’t know the identity of the commander, but he did know that they were trying to ambush the group from Emerald Amethyst Hall and seize their treasures to enter the deeper part of Misty Valley.

“So they came with the same objective as me.” LI Meng thought.

“Please spare me.” The man begged Li meng and cried out loud. Li Meng simply looked at him and waved his sword, separating his head from his body. ” You shouldn’t believe your enemy’s words.” Li meng said with a cold tone.

“You are a bastard to the core. You didn’t even hold your side of the bargain. You are a coward.” Yin Luo shouted.

“I am surprised you still have the guts to shout like that in my face. Given you just lost half your worth, tell me whether or not you will cooperate. Your talent is quite good. It’s not every day I see someone capable of using To Heavenly laws along with the powerful body.” Yin Luo was surprised. He had never used his law energy since he was gathering it for a sudden attack and escape from this situation.

“I want talented people like you to work under me and create a powerful force which will dominate the central plains. I will give you a chance to come and work for me, or your end will be quite disturbing, and honestly not something I desire to see.”

“I will never betray Commander Li?”. Yin Luo used up his low energy and attacked Li Meng in a trial to escape. To his surprise, Li Meng simply raised his hands to block the attack and was pushed back.

Yin Luo tried to escape, but to his surprise, he felt danger coming from behind and turned around to guard against it but to his surprise, a powerful force directly pushed him into the ground. Moments later he could feel his face being grabbed by a tight palm and lifted in the air.

The atmosphere has suddenly turned grim and bloodlust filled the air. Li Meng’s amicable appearance had turned scary and every single cultivator who was present within the battlefield could feel their hair standing.

“Commander Li you say. I would love to see who this guy is.” The name Li strung a bad chord in Li meng’s heart. He still remembered that the only enemy whom he didn’t manage to kill in an encounter was none other than Li Xuanfa. He had managed to save a whole group of people from his attack.

Yin Luo had lost consciousness in the last brawl, and Li Meng tied him up with a rope artifact which he got from one of the victims.

“Leader. Scouts have reported that the group from Emerald Amethyst have entered the core region and are headed this way. What should we do?”

“Tell all the members to go into hiding and let the group from the hall enter the core region. We will let the group from Black-Devil church take care of them and wait to fish benefits for ourselves.”

How could Li Meng let go of an opportunity to take out two enemies with a single bullet?

The group followed Li Meng’s order and went into hiding.

.....................

Black Devil base, core region, Misty Valley-

“Sir, the scouts have reported that the Merald AmethystHall forces have entered the core region and headed to this place.”

“Inform all our personnel to be ready. Also, tell captain Yin to begin his preparation his to attack them from the back.”

The man tried to communicate with Yin Luo but didn’t get any response. ” Sir, there is no reply from the other side.”

” He must be busy with another task. We don’t have time to wait for his reply. Just message him and begin the operation.” Li Xuanfa was tensed up. Emerald Amethyst was no small group. They were powerful enough to even scare the Black-Devil church. He could let his identity leak out and needs to eliminate everyone within the group.

Sir, they have reached the range of our attack. What are your orders?”

“Draw them in. We need to have a proper advantage to land a perfect surprise attack on them.” The men held their positions and waited for the convoy to enter deeper into their ambush zone. The convoy from Emerald Amethyst was quite lar?ge with the provisional holy son of their riding in one of the carts in the middle.

*Inform Yin Luo to proceed towards this region. He will attack as soon as we actively engage them in battle. Ask the scouts to be alert for any other forces who would be passing this region.”

Little did they know a whole other group was proceeding towards their base.
