Chapter 571 - Heavenly Punishing Villa
Translator: Kazeyuki_ Editor: Jimmy_
Luo Hengye went missing! At this crucial point, what would it imply when Luo Hengyen went missing? It meant that most likely a turn of event had happened. Most likely, people of the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan had captured him.
When he thought here, Luo Tongtian’s hands and feet were ice-cold. He stood there stupefied and was silent for a while. He was stunned by this unexpected accident.
At the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, Luo Hengye was Luo Tongtian’s most trusted assistant and the smartest Dao Warrior. Luo Tongtian had to admit of his reliability. Therefore, he had conducted many business with Luo Hengye. He felt somewhat out of place when he had lost Luo Hengye all of sudden.
However, he was the leader of a sect in the end. He knew that he must not panic at this moment. Thus, he worked hard to calm down, organized his thoughts and said to Heavenly Punishing Hawk: “Divine Hawk, regardless, please report the situation to the Heavenly Punishing Villa. If we let Qin Wushuang becomes a major threat, certainly the result will not be something they want to see!”
Heavenly Punishing Hawk said coldly: “Do I needed you to instruct me? I already told them.”
…
At the headquarter of the Heavenly Punishing Villa, a group of higher-ups were discussing something. In terms of individual strength, the Heavenly Punishing Villa or the Sound of Thunder Sect would not be any stronger than the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan. However, when these two powerhouses joined alliance, their power had completely suppressed the Qin clan.
Therefore, throughout the thousand year of battles, Qin Clan’s space had been suppressed step after step. Countless people lost their precious lives during this tangle. People at the Elder level such as Qin Shixun had also died or injured.
The Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of the Thunder sect only shared one goal, and that would be to destroy the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan. The contradiction views accumulated for a few thousand years had caused them to reach the situation to fight for one’s last gasp.
If you were not to die, it would be my death.
These words were the most vivid portrayal of their relationship.
“Reporting to the Second Lord, the Second Suzerain of the Sound of Thunder Sect had reached outside the mountain gate.” A scout returned quickly to report.
“Everyone, quickly, come with me to welcome.” A middle-aged man of short build, yet with a pair of twinkling eyes stood up. Revealing a dauntless expression, he led a group of higher-ups of the Heavenly Punishing Villa to walk towards the mountain gate.
The Heavenly Punishing Villa was also one of the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates. Naturally, the territory they occupied were blessed by heaven. When they arrived at the mountain gate, a man dressed in silver robe had arrived at the entrance with a few subordinates.
“Lord Lei Ming, you have arrived just in time. I wished for the stars and the moon for you to come.” Indeed, this dauntless middle-aged man with a short build was the second Suzerain of the Heavenly Punishing Villa, Yan Guinan.
That man in silver robe was Lord Lei Ming of the Sound of Thunder Sect. In the sect, he was also a man holding the second highest position. His status was equilvalent to the position Yan Guinan holding at the Heavenly Punishing Villa.
“Per your invitation, I would not dare not to come.” That man in silver robe laughed, “Just don’t know what urgent matters you have?”
Yan Guinan pointed to the mountain and fileds outside this area and said: “Senior Lei Ming, this is no small matter. We shall find a quiet place and talk about it in detail.”
Upon seeing Yan Guinan making a show of being very much in earnest, Lei Ming knew the severity of the matter as he nodded: “Please make the arrangement.”
Deep inside the Heavenly Punishing Villa, Lei Ming revealed a grave expression. He had already finished hearing Yan Guinan and said with a low voice: “Such devilish thing had happened?”
“The occurrence of abnormal things must have been enchanted. Senior Lei Ming, if the Heavenly Punishing Hawk reported the news, I also found it in disbelief. You say that mountain gate of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, only people like you or me at the Supreme Dao could not come and go freely? It was destroyed by a kid of the Human Countries.” Yan Guinan’s tone also sounded grave. Apparently, he was incredibly confused by such situation.
Lei Ming gave a long sigh: “If it was just a conflict between a genius of the Human Countries to the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, there is no need for us to go after it. The most crucial part was that this kid’s surname is Qin!”
“That’s right, this kid’s surname is Qin.” Yan Guinan gave a long and rueful sigh, “Before we have set up secret bounty to deal with the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan, to cut off one of the most important branch to the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan. In the end, Qin Wushuang had sabotaged the plan. At that time, we didn’t think of it as an alarm and only thought it was an accident. Now, it seems that sooner or later, this Qin Wushuang was a restless factor. He had sabotaged our great plan from an eearly time.”
“The Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect is truly useless!” Lei Ming swore for he felt indignant, “That Luo Hengye has the face to talk about some collaboration with us. Just with their sect’s little power, we would find them annoying even if they were to be cannon fodder. What’s the result? It proves that it’s absolutely right for us to not have trusted them completely.”
“Senior Lei Ming, now it’s usless to speak of these things.” Yan Guinan’s tone sounded incredibly sincere, “The most urgent thing now is how to patch it. Neither you or me wanted to see a disciple of the Qin Clan rise quickly? You know that the Qin Clan have a profound cultural background, if we let them cultivate a warrior at the Supreme Dao again, it would be an intractable problem to you and me.”
“Senior Guina, you mean?”
Yan Guinan made a chopping gesture and said with a harsh tone: “Experience of the history tells us that in order to avoid been regretful, we must take the initiative. Or else, they will rise and become our greatest misfortune!”
Lei Ming believed it to be so: “Yes, these are the words—Catch the ball before bound!”
In the Xuan Yuan Mound, they had many past experiences in similar situation. Before the rise of an elite warrior, they had showcased great publicity. The speed and the momentum of their emergence were also incredibly big. In the process of their emergence, the enemies of the elite warrior had all not given enough attention and allowed the other party to develop. In the end, the elite warrior had developed to become their greatest misfortune in which it was too late for regrets.
Therefore, to strangle the emergence of an elite warrior and to stop the possibility of a regretful situation, the best solution was to kill the other party in their development stage.
To kill the genius at their development cradle would be the smartest choice to spare all later troubles!
Now the problem was, who would execute it.
Two elite warrior of the Supreme Dao thought this question at the same time. When they looked at each other in dismay, they laughed embarrassingly. Clearly, they had wished the other party to carry it out.
However, it was obvious that it would not be fair to neither parties if one of them go. The Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of Thunder Sect had always been on the same branch and breath, share both the honor and the disgrace.
“Senior Lei Ming, in fact, me and the Heavenly Punishing Villa had done our share of work. It was a high stance when we send the Heavenly Punishing Hawk. Of couse, for this matter, I did not plan to back out. We should still do it together.”
“Yes, let’s do it together.” At this moment, Lei Ming would not have any little schemes. It would not be reasonable if only those from the Heavenly Punishing Villa had gone.
“I also thought about it, that it would be useless to send subordinates. Besides elite warriors of the Supreme Dao, our sects do not have anyone stronger than Luo Tongtian. Since Luo Tongtian’s hands were bound, it seems that only those at the Supreme Dao would have a way. Therefore, it should be me and you making this trip.” Yan Guinan was not been incomprehensible.
“Ok, then let’s make the trip. It would not mater whether the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect gets annilhilated. However, it’s forbidden to let the Qin Clan have a genius young man!” Lei Ming’s attitude was firm.
“No, the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect cannot cease to exist!” Yan Guinan voiced his opinion against odds.
“Oh? Why would you think so?” Lei Ming frowned. In his viewpoints, the series of problems showcased by the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect did not make them seem to be a qualified major powerhouse to make alliance with them.
“Senior Lei Ming, I have a question, and is somewhat subtle. So I would like to ask you.”
“Tell me.”
“I would like to ask, our two powerhouses joined alliance to become enemies with the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan. From major battles to little conflicts, even to the situation where two armies stand face to face had happened many times. However, the end result was that we still could not annihilate the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan. Under such circumstance, we will still take the upper hand when we fight with the Qin Clan. However, to annihilate them, would you have one-hundred-percent confidence?”
This was a incisive question. After a momet of silence, Lei Ming said with a bitter smile: “Although I do not wish to help others to grow their ambition, that Heavenly Emperor Qin is tough, a bone that is tough to bite. We must need more helpers to bite it. If another powerhouse were to join the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates, the Qin Clan will die!”
“Ha ha, if someone was willing to join, they would have joined a thousand years ago. This hypothesis is meaningless.” Yan Guinan said with a bitter smile, “The Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates have twisted roots and intertwined joints. The situation is complicated. When we schemed against them, they were also guarding against us. They would not form alliance with us easily. Besides, they were already occupying at the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates. Since they do not hold grudge with the Qin clan, it’s unnecessary to go against the Qin clan. Therefore, we can only consider on those powerhosues who intended to join the Heavenly Emperor Mountain.”
“We should find those first-rate powerhouses outside the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates, there were so many. This Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect is truly worthless.”
Yan Guinan laughed: “Senior Lei Ming, the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect is getting restrained from all aspects, because in the end, there was only one reason.”
“What reason?”
“It’s simple, they don’t have a warrior of the Supreme Dao! If they had someone at the Supreme Dao, the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect would truly contain much potential and enough to compete with other first-rate powerhouses. However, that’s all in the past. Now with their mountain gate destroyed, they had lost their biggest capital.”
“Then the more we cannot count on them.” Lei Ming said.
“No, I feel that this is the best time to rope them in and control them.” From Yan Guinan’s dauntless eyes, there was a trace of astute and strange intention.
“Why do you say?”
Yan Guinan said: “It’s one aspect for that after experiencing this calamity, the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect suffered a low morale. The most crucial part was that their foundation was destroyed and it would be impossible to rebuild it. Therefore, they needed a place to re-establish themselves urgently. Because of this, the more urgently they wanted a seat of the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates! Such urgent mentality would stimuatle their potential to the maximum.”
“Brother Gui Nan, you are not planning to support the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect, right?” Lei Ming asked with a surprised tone.
“Not support, but to manipulate! That Luo Tongtian is at the peak of the Common Mysterious stage, and he has the best hope to enter the Supreme Dao. If we help him at such crucial times, once he entered the Supreme Dao, he would be the best chess piece for us to deal with the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan. Among those first-rate powerhouses, which one of them were as easy to obey as the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect? Which one of were easy to manipulate?”
In comparison, other first-rate powerhosues outside the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates had valued their reputation greatly. It would not be easy to manipulate them. With the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect’s current situation, it would be easy to control them!
Thinking here, Lei Ming’s interest was somewhat aroused!
