Chapter 177: Tiangang Sword Sect, Xie Mingze Makes His Move!
“Holy Maiden, should we make our move now?”
Mei Qianmeng looked at Gu Xi, then shook her head, “He hasn’t been forced into a desperate situation yet, so it’s not a good time for us to make our move.”
Thinking of the time when Gu Xi and her were charging through the Ten Thousand Dragons Formation together, Mei Qianmeng was sure that Gu Xi still had a backup plan at that time and did not use all of his strength.
She had clearly set up a situation where he was certain to die, but Gu Xi had been able to escape. From this, it could be seen that this person was not simple. In fact, he was even more powerful than she had imagined.
“This person’s strength is unfathomable. Even I can’t test him out. If he can rope in our Demon Region’s camp, he will definitely become a great help.”
Hearing Mei Qianmeng’s words, the old man beside her revealed an expression of disbelief. He could not help but say, “Even the Holy Maiden can’t detect him?”
He was silent for a moment. “Looks like this child is indeed very useful. But what if he doesn’t enter the Demon Region?”
The smile on Mei Qianmeng’s face was incomparably beautiful, like a blooming poppy, and everyone could not help but fall into it. “Do you think that at this stage, he still has a choice?”
“The Righteous path clearly can not tolerate him any longer. If he doesn’t enter the Demon Region, wouldn’t he be making enemies with the whole world? Under the current situation, only our Demon Region can protect him.”
“Furthermore, even if he doesn’t enter the Demon Region, I can take this opportunity to test his strength. It’s best if both sides suffer losses, then we can sit back and reap the benefits.”
The subordinate beside him was completely convinced. It could be said that Mei Qianmeng had calculated everything. However, she was somewhat suspicious of the latter sentence.
“The Sect Masters of those large sects aren’t to be trifled with. Although this kid’s strength isn’t bad, it hasn’t reached that stage yet. I’m afraid that both sides will suffer losses, and I’m afraid that won’t be possible.”
Mei Qianmeng’s gaze turned, appearing to be extremely deep.
“Have you forgotten about the Red Heavenly Lightning just now? Try asking him if he can borrow the power of the Lightning Tribulation to destroy the Four Sages Immortal Locking Formation!, causing more than half of these disciples to be injured. This is enough to show his ability. Moreover, this is under the condition that he didn’t even make a move.”
The people of the Demon Region heard this and immediately felt that it made sense. If it was them, they would definitely not be able to achieve this level.
On the other side, the atmosphere between Gu Xi and the Sect Masters was also very tense.
“Don’t say that we’re bullying the weak with our numbers. One of us is enough to deal with you.”
Hearing this, Mei Qianmeng revealed a mocking smile on her lips. “These Righteous cultivators are really sanctimonious. Things have already come to this point and they still want to cover up for themselves.”
If they really wanted to be fair, they would not have set up such an inescapable net to deal with Gu Xi from the start.
After seeing clearly who the person who walked out was, it was indeed not as Mei Qianmeng had expected. The person who came was actually Tiangang Sword Sect’s Xie Mingze.
This Tiangang Sword Sect was the most famous in the capital. Its disciples were good at using the sword. If they were the second best in the path of the sword, then no one would dare to claim to be the first.
The Great Sword Sect was none other than the Tiangang Sword Sect.
There were even people who traveled thousands of miles to come and take on a master, even if they only wanted to be an outer sect disciple. At the very least, they could be a miscellaneous disciple. It was a pity that they had strict requirements when accepting disciples. If they did not have the comprehension or talent, they would definitely not accept them.
The sect was controlled by Xie Mingze’s elder brother, Xie Mingyu. Xie Mingyu was in charge of handling the affairs of the Tiangang Sword Sect. Xie Mingze focused on his cultivation and did not care about the affairs of the world. He had always lived in seclusion.
It was said that he was born with a sword bone and sought the pinnacle of his Sword Dao. His strength was extraordinary and he never acted rashly. Those who had seen him act before were all dead.
“To think that they were able to invite Xie Mingze. This group of people is really too shameless. Who doesn’t know that Xie Mingze has been famous for a long time? Yet, he’s facing an unknown junior now?”
Mei Qianmeng looked as if she did not mind watching the show.
“There’s going to be a good show to watch next.” If she remembered correctly, Gu Xi was also good at using the sword. She did not know which of the two was better. He was going to meet Xie Mingze, who was the best in swordsmanship.
The subordinate next to her said worriedly, “Will Xie Mingze affect our plan? If he makes a move, I’m afraid that we –”
“Don’t worry. If I want to leave, no one here will dare to stay.”
Following Xie Mingze’s appearance, the crowd fell silent. It was said that he was the most talented person in history and had a Sword Bone on his body. With his swordsmanship, he could to reach the peak or even ascend.
Originally, the Tiangang Sword Sect’s Sect Master wanted to give it to him. However, because he was a sword addict, the Sect Master position fell to Xie Mingyu.
Gu Xi looked at the man in front of him. His gray robe was very ordinary, and the most important thing was that he actually took out a sword that was full of rust.
This kind of attire and appearance, he could be lost in the crowd.
However, Gu Xi did not dare to underestimate him. His expression was somewhat solemn. His intuition told him that the man in front of him was not simple.
Moreover, the reactions of the surrounding people also confirmed this point.
“It’s actually Xie Mingze. This Brat is doomed.”
“Shh! You dare to call him by his name. You don’t want to live anymore?”
“He has already reached the Saint stage in the past. Now, I don’t know what cultivation level he has.”
“The last time he attacked, this person single-handedly challenged nineteen sects of the Demon Region. He destroyed several sects of the Demon Region and caused them to suffer heavy losses.”
Xie Mingze originally did not want to leave the mountain, but unfortunately, he could not withstand the people from the various sects taking turns to invite him. He was also promised the supreme-grade sword technique and the treasure in the Primal Chaos Secret Realm that could improve one’s state of mind.
It was just that he had been stuck at the Saint stage for a long time, and Xie Mingyu also came to persuade him, which was why he reluctantly agreed. Otherwise, according to his character, he definitely did not want to meddle in these matters.
Xie Mingze did not acknowlege Gu Xi at all. To be more precise, such a person was not worthy to be his opponent.
He pulled out the iron sword in his hand, and a faint sword hum surrounded his body. In an instant, his entire aura changed.
“Make your move. Let’s end this quickly. I don’t want to waste time.”
