Chapter 685: Chapter 685

"Hmph! This Old Dog daring to hurt Elder Sister, he truly deserves to die!" the Black Dragon Saint declared murderously.

"Black Dragon, now isn’t the time for that. The urgent matter at hand is that we must first push back these traitors!" Shoujian Saint Child said.

"Hmph! Shoujian, I warn you, don’t think just because you’re ranked first, you can boss me around! Speaking to me with the tone of a superior, honestly, I’ve disliked you for a long time! Anger me and I’ll erase you right now!" Black Dragon said coldly.

"Both of you shut up! The traitors from the thirty-three sub-factions have already reached our doorstep, and you two still have the nerve to squabble here! Do you want to let them take advantage of us?" the Great Elder of the White Tiger Sect growled coldly.

"Old man, who do you think you are? We are all equals here; it’s not your turn to intervene in our affairs!" Shoujian and Black Dragon both snapped icily.

"Haha... Shoujian, Black Dragon, I advise you to surrender quietly! Relinquish the Sect Leader’s throne, otherwise, once I give the order, disciples from all thirty-three sub-factions will storm this place, and that will be your end!" the Sky Dragon Sect Master boasted arrogantly.

"Why waste so many words on these failures? In my opinion, we should just rush them and slaughter this group of trash!" the Sky Snake Leader declared murderously.

"The Sky Snake Leader is right! These insects even dare to covet the position of Sect Leader, they truly deserve to die!" the rest of the sub-leaders added coldly.

"Hmph! A bunch of cowards, come and fight me one-on-one! Even if it’s everyone against me one after another, I, Black Dragon, will take you all on! Just watch how I’ll make you piss yourselves!" Black Dragon scoffed disdainfully.

"Black Dragon! I know you are very strong in combat! In the White Tiger Sect, apart from Shoujian Saint Child who can slightly outclass you, none, including myself, can match you alone! But now, you need to understand one thing, we thirty-three sub-factions are joining forces to besiege you! We aren’t here to challenge you to single combats, I advise you to surrender wisely! If you continue being stubborn, soon it will be your end!" the Sky Dragon Sect Master stated coldly.

"Junior Brother, do not engage in a war of words with him! The enemy’s force is great, even if we all came out, we’re still no match for them! In my opinion, it might be better to temporarily retreat to headquarters! We can take advantage of the terrain and fight them there!" Saintess Hua Yan advised.

"Indeed, I think what Saintess Hua Yan said makes sense! With the complex secret passages and traps at headquarters, even if all thirty-three sub-factions join forces, we still stand a chance to fight!" the Great Elder said.

"Saintess Hua Yan is right; with our current strength, it would be difficult to wipe out these traitors! The best plan for now, is to utilize the complex secret passages and traps at headquarters, perhaps we will have a chance to fight!" Shoujian Saint Child said.

"Alright! If that’s the case, then let’s retreat into the secret passages first!" the remaining Saint Heirs and Holy Daughters agreed. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝※𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖※𝕟𝕖𝕥

A group of people then rushed toward the Black Gold Gate.

Zhang Xiaohao naturally was holding Saintess Hua Yan, taking advantage of her while following the flow of people rushing into the secret passages inside the White Tiger Sect headquarters.

As for the White-clothed Young Master, he closely followed behind Zhang Xiaohao rushing towards the Black Gold Gate.

"Hmph! Thinking of leaving? Did you ask for my permission? Chase them!" Seeing this, the Sky Dragon Sect Master commanded coldly, prompting all the disciples of the thirty-three sub-factions to give chase.

"Sky Dragon Sect Master, what does this mean? Don’t you know there are many traps and secret weapons inside headquarters? Letting these disciples chase after them, are you sending them to their death?" the Sky Snake Leader asked coldly.

The other sub-leaders didn’t speak, but their icy stares said it all.

"Hmph! What do you know? When all thirty-three sub-factions come together, we have tens of thousands of disciples, all of them experts! Even with numerous traps and secret weapons inside, how many of us can they injure? The reason I’m doing this is to overwhelm them with sheer numbers! If a thousand aren’t enough, then two thousand! I believe that without sending three thousand to exhaust all the traps and weapons, headquarters won’t be able to stand!"

"Then, it will be our time to act. As long as we eliminate the top ten Saint Heirs and the elder council, won’t the White Tiger Sect be at our command?" the Sky Dragon Sect Master sneered.

"Yes, Sky Dragon Sect Master is right! Even if we have to sacrifice some disciples, it’s acceptable as long as we eliminate the top ten Saint Heirs and the elder council."

"No wonder he’s the Sky Dragon Sect Master! Even this strategy alone is unmatched! I respect you!"

The rest of the sub-leaders flattered.

"Idiots! You know nothing! Wait till I use you all up, I’ll see how I dispose of you!" the Sky Dragon Sect Master thought to himself coldly.

Inside the mountain secret passages.

Zhang Xiaohao was holding Saintess Hua Yan while kneading her buns and scrutinizing the complex pathways around him.

Passages crisscrossed in every direction, creating a massive labyrinth.

If one didn’t have a guide, finding the true path out would be very challenging!

This wasn’t the main problem; when they first came in, Zhang Xiaohao had used his Soul Power to check the surroundings.

With the Soul Power he cultivated through the Three Pure Daoist Skill, he could only extend it for ten meters in this maze; anything beyond that range was repelled by a mysterious force.

No matter how hard he tried, his Soul Power couldn’t reach past eleven meters.

"What’s your name?" Black Dragon Saint asked, stepping over to Zhang Xiaohao.

"I am called Demon God," Zhang Xiaohao replied after a moment’s thought.

At this time, Bai Xiaosheng had not yet updated the ranking of Saint Heirs, so the name Demon God was still unknown to anyone.

"Demon God? What a strange name," Black Dragon Saint said, frowning.

He reached into his chest and solemnly handed over a crudely made storage bag.

"What is this?" Zhang Xiaohao asked, puzzled.

"This contains various treasures I’ve collected over the years. Listen well, Demon God! If the situation becomes dire, take Elder Sister to my room. There’s a secret passage in my room that leads directly outside. It’s extremely hidden! Besides me, no second person knows about it!" Black Dragon Saint whispered to him confidentially.

"Alright," Zhang Xiaohao nodded.

Without any ceremony, he took the storage bag handed over by Black Dragon Saint.

"Damn! Giving away women and treasures alike, we’re all human but why is there such a disparity in treatment?" the White-clothed Young Master thought to himself speechlessly upon witnessing this scene.
