Chapter 674: Chapter 674

"Brother Zhang, wait!" the White-clothed Young Master called out.

"What’s wrong?" Zhang Xiaohao asked in confusion.

The White-clothed Young Master slapped his waist with one hand and pulled out two sets of black clothes and two black White Tiger Masks, handing them over.

"What are these?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.

"These are the outfits for the core disciples of the White Tiger Sect headquarters that I had prepared in advance," the White-clothed Young Master explained.

"Hmm," Zhang Xiaohao nodded.

He took a set of the black robes and the black White Tiger Mask and put them on.

Zhang Xiaohao and the White-clothed Young Master completed their transformation.

They were dressed in the clothes and masks of the core disciples of the White Tiger Sect headquarters.

"Brother Zhang, let’s go now!" the White-clothed Young Master said.

"Hmm," Zhang Xiaohao nodded again.

Immediately, the two of them lightly tapped the ground and, using their martial movement techniques, sped forward.

"Don’t go too far! We are the core disciples of the headquarters. If you dare to kill us and the Great Elder finds out, he won’t let you off!" a disciple wearing a black robe and a black White Tiger Mask coldly snorted.

Next to him, a group of about a dozen disciples in the same attire stood close together, holding their weapons, and coldly watching the group of people opposite them.

"Pah! You think that Old Dog can compete for the Sect Leader’s throne? What a delusional dream! The position of Sect Leader of the White Tiger Sect can only be occupied by our Heavenly Eye Squad Leader, no one else is worthy!" a disciple from the Heavenly Eye faction scornfully retorted.

Around him, hundreds of disciples from the Heavenly Eye faction, holding black spears, tightly surrounded the dozen or so disciples in black.

"How audacious! This is an act of insubordination, ruining the century-old heritage of our White Tiger Sect! Truly deserving of death!" the disciple in black furiously bellowed.

"Haha... the Jianghu has always been a place where the weak are prey to the strong! Especially within our White Tiger Sect, the weak are eliminated, and the strong rise! Having no strength and still coveting that throne is simply seeking death!" the disciple from the Heavenly Eye faction coldly laughed.

"This is insubordination! You won’t have a good end," the disciple in black said with reluctance.

"Hmph! Based on seniority, except for the three factions that have been wiped out, the thirty-three squad leaders, including the ten Saint Heirs and Holy Daughters and a group of Supreme Elders, are all on an equal level! Where does this idea of insubordination come from? Besides, the Jianghu is ruled by the mighty! Our Heavenly Eye Squad Leader is invincible, unparalleled in martial prowess, and no one can rival his ferocity. Only such a powerhouse is worthy of the White Tiger Sect Leader’s position, capable of leading the White Tiger Sect back to its peak, destroying the Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, and Xuanwu, our three major rival forces, and creating a new glory for the White Tiger Sect!" the disciple from the Heavenly Eye faction arrogantly proclaimed.

"Humph! Even if it means death today, we must defend the dignity of the Great Elder! Brothers, let’s kill! One kill to break even, two kills for a gain! We won’t be alone on the road to Netherworld!" the disciple in black coldly snorted.

"Kill!" Following his cry, the remaining dozen or so disciples in black, brandishing their swords and displaying their martial skills, ferociously charged at the Heavenly Eye faction’s disciples opposite them.

"Hmph! Facing death, yet you still put up a desperate fight! How laughable, charge! Hack them to pieces with your knives!" the disciple from the Heavenly Eye faction said with murderous intent.

"Kill!" As his voice fell.

Disciples of the Heavenly Eye faction, numbering over a hundred, brandished their weapons with murderous intent, charging at about a dozen men in black.

The flickering of blades, the circulation of True Qi, and various martial arts techniques went berserk.

But in just one encounter, the remaining men in black were slain by the disciples of the Heavenly Eye faction.

"Hmph! Insects trying to vie with my master for the Sect Leader position of the White Tiger Sect, simply seeking death!" a disciple of the Heavenly Eye faction sneered.

"Is that so? You’re quite bold!" Just then, a cold voice suddenly rang out.

"Who? Who is spying in the shadows? Show yourself to me!" a disciple of the Heavenly Eye faction scoffed.

They hurriedly looked back.

In their sight, two disciples from the headquarters, dressed in black robes and wearing black masks, coldly walked over.

"I wondered who it was! Just two fish that slipped through the net!" a disciple of the Heavenly Eye faction arrogantly said.

"You’ve got some nerve! To think you dare attack disciples of the headquarters, are you trying to rebel?" Zhang Xiaohao sneered.

"Hmph! Headquarters my foot! I’ve long been displeased with you so-called disciples from the headquarters! Normally, you all lie around like lords, cultivating at headquarters with all sorts of resources at your disposal, using them up until you’re fit to burst! Why is it that whenever there’s a mission, it’s us, the faction’s disciples, who have to carry it out?"

"And it’s not just that I would excuse, but why is it that we who fight and kill outside, end up with fewer cultivation resources than you who lie around at home?" a disciple of the Heavenly Eye faction said with a grim face.

"Sigh! These days, fighting and killing doesn’t count for much; lying down and earning money, now that’s the real skill!" Zhang Xiaohao said earnestly.

"Hmph! Sharp-tongued! Fortunately, Heaven has provided a great opportunity. The Sect Leader and all the Vice Sect Leaders suddenly died overnight! This opportunity was presented before us, and now, all thirty-three major factions have united, determined to exterminate you group of headquarters disciples and the bunch led by the ten Saint Heirs and Holy Daughters!" a disciple of the Heavenly Eye faction said with a murderous air.

"It seems you’ve all been plotting this day for a long time!" Zhang Xiaohao sneered.

"Hmph! Considering you’re about to die, I might as well do you a favor and tell you!" a disciple of the Heavenly Eye faction said.

"You’re right! Even before the Sect Leader and those worthless Vice Sect Leaders died, all thirty-six factions had already secretly united! But, factions like Heavenly Sword and those other three were so useless, they let a mere commoner named Zhang Xiaohao annihilate them! They truly deserved to die!"

"Heh." Zhang Xiaohao touched his nose and gave a bitter smile.

He himself was being blamed unwarrantedly!

"Hmph! Let me tell you another thing!" a disciple of the Heavenly Eye faction sneered.

"What’s that?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.

"Actually, the Sect Leader and those several Vice Sect Leaders didn’t die from cultivation deviation! They were severely injured in a secret realm, and on the night they returned, they were killed by spies we arranged secretly in the headquarters!" a disciple of the Heavenly Eye faction boasted proudly.

"I don’t mean to look down on you, but do you really think you could threaten them? You think I would believe that?" Zhang Xiaohao shrugged.

Those who could become a Sect Leader were each powerful in their own right.

Even if they were seriously injured, they were not ones who could be easily murdered by some lesser beings.
