Chapter 159 I said, protect you

  Long Yun's body hair stood on end in an instant, and his pupils shrunk into pinpoints.

  The entire world at this moment seemed to have been stripped of all vitality, leaving only endless deathly silence.

  A black light flashed towards him, with an unstoppable momentum that shook his soul.

  He let out a low, muffled growl from his throat, and his entire true yuan burst forth explosively. The sword in his hand revealed an unprecedentedly sharp edge, blocking the way forward.

  Boom!

  Dust and dirt rose into the air, as if a meteor had struck the ground.

  The wind blew in and the dust dispersed, and where Long Yun had stood just now had turned into a deep pit of over ten feet.

  In the pit, Long Yun's mouth was bleeding at the corner, his long sword had been broken into two pieces, his right hand twisted at an eerie angle, and his left shoulder had just collapsed.

  Because he wanted to ask him some questions, Zhang Shan's sword chopped off his sword and finally made a slight turn, using the hilt to slap down and shatter his right arm and left shoulder, making him lose the ability to move.

  Zhang Shan suddenly fell into the pit, and Cang Feng pressed down on his neck.

  "Take out the transmission symbol from your Xumi ring to activate it, at least for a breath of time, that's enough for me to cut off your head ten times, so if you're smart, don't think about doing that."

  Long Yun's eyes were filled with terror as he nodded, but in his heart, he couldn't help but wonder who this young man was.

  He was one level higher than the other party's boundary, but he was severely injured and captured with just one move. Many of the Zhenwu Realm disciples in the Tianzong sect knew about it, but there was no such a formidable figure in their memory.

  Zhang Shan looked at him and said, "I've just joined the Tianzong sect recently, so I'm very interested in news about various major sects. Why don't you tell me what's been interesting lately with your Yuehua Pool?"

  "Whatever it is, pick the important ones and say them. If I'm satisfied, I can let you activate the transmission symbol to leave. If not, then you'll have to bid farewell to this world."

  Zhang Shan slightly relaxed his hand, and the weight of Cang Feng directly pressed down on Long Yun's throat, causing him to frantically blink his eyes.

  It wasn't until a good while later that he finally picked up his sword. By then, Long Yun's face had already turned the color of liver due to lack of oxygen.

  "Now you can speak." Zhang Shan smiled warmly at him.

  Long Yun immediately opened his mouth and started speaking without any hesitation.

  The recent important event in Yuehua Pool is that Wu Xueyue was appointed as the Holy Girl, which is also Zhang Shan's goal.

  Zhang Shan listened quietly, occasionally asking some seemingly insignificant questions.

  Under a series of probing questions, Zhang Shan had a rough idea in his mind.

  This world, struggle is everywhere, in Wēn Tiān Zōng it is so, and in Yuè Huá Chí it is also the same.

  Yuehua Pool originally had two holy girls, and they naturally had their own followers behind them, divided into two major factions, either openly or secretly supporting their own choices.

  After years of open and secret struggles, a delicate balance has been formed.

  But Wu Xueyue's rise to power has disrupted this balance, and now the surface of Yuehua Pool is bustling with celebrations for the birth of the new Holy Maiden, but underground, there are hidden undercurrents.

  Li Ruofeng didn't know which of the other two Holy Maidens' factions he belonged to, but it was clear that this faction was preparing to make a move on the newly promoted Holy Maiden.

  According to the sect rules of Yuehua Pond, the Holy Maiden must be a chaste and pure virgin, and she must remain so when taking on the role of Holy Maiden and eventually becoming the leader.

  Only after stepping down as the leader can one find a Dao companion and live together in harmony.

  If during this period there is involvement in private affairs between men and women, it will be considered a first-class serious crime of the Moon Flower Pool, equivalent to treason.

  Li Ruofeng must have been instructed by someone else, using Chunhua Qiuyue Lu as a medium to make Wu Xuemei lose her chastity and break her vow.

  This is not a simple color revolution, but a link in the chain of power struggle to eliminate opponents.

  Zhang Shan's face was gloomy and terrifying, the Jianyi sword intent surged out of control, in the will to destroy everything, there was an added hint of cold-bloodedness, brutal madness.

  Longyun, who was lying on the ground, was enveloped in this sword intent, his whole body as if bathed in an icy cave. Before long, his teeth chattered and he let out a series of crisp cracking sounds. At this moment, Zhangshan was like a demon god.

  It took Zhangshan a good while to control his temper, but the murderous intent in his heart grew stronger and stronger.

  Although Li Ruofeng is not the mastermind, he is the most crucial piece and executor. Now, only by killing him can this conspiracy against Wu Xueyue be temporarily stopped.

  Although the struggle won't end here, it will definitely disrupt her plans and give her a buffer, just like dominoes, once one falls, the whole row will fall.

  Zhang Shan calmed down and thought for a moment before asking Long Yun again: "Have you met any fellow disciples here?"

  "I've met a few." Long Yun dared not conceal it.

  "What's it called?" Zhang Shan asked.

  Long Yun mentioned five or six names, among which was Li Ruofeng's name.

  To conceal his true interest in Li Ruofeng, Zhang Shan quietly had Long Yun introduce everyone and pointed out the direction they were heading.

  Zhang Shan fell silent after listening, and Long Yun felt a faint killing intent on him, and suddenly shivered.

  "He stammered: 'You said that if I answered and made you satisfied, you would let me go.'"

  It wasn't until much later that the murderous intent slowly dissipated.

  Zhang Shan indeed had the idea of killing and silencing him just a moment ago. Although Long Yun should not know what he wants to do, in order to be safe, it is still best to kill him.

  However, Longyun's answer was satisfactory to him. If he still killed him, it would leave a stain on his own martial heart, and the gain would not be worth the loss.

  He picked up Cang Feng from his throat and put it into the Xumi Ring, then took over his nameplate.

  "You can activate the transmission symbol now, and we've never seen this before!"

  Zhang Shan looked at him calmly and said.

  Longyun suddenly felt a chill in his heart again, hastily nodded, and then dared to use his divine sense to take out the transmission symbol from the Susu ring, and then activated it.

  A flash of light passed by, and he vanished from his original position.

  Zhang Shan took his nameplate and looked at it, displaying a number 9.

  He inserted one corner of his nameplate into a slot in the middle of Long Yun's nameplate, and it fit perfectly. Then, the nameplate flashed with a faint light.

  Zhang Shan looked again and saw that his nameplate had already changed to 10.

  "Finally, the points have been credited. Earlier in the day, the scoreboard on the outside square showed that my points should still be 1. Master must be furious!"

  Thinking of his master's unpleasant expression, Zhang Shan chuckled and put away the plaque.

  "Then next is to find Li Ruofeng and make him completely disappear from this world."

  Zhang Shan's smile faded away, Wu Xueyue's face flashed in his mind, and a cold glint flickered in his eyes: "I said I would protect you."
