Great Immortal With Boundless Mana
Chapter 89 Excitement
Chapter 89: Excitement
Gao Xian was obviously just joking. How could he let Zhu Qiniang wait for him in bed when it involved life and death matters? That would be too unproductive.
He briefly explained to Zhu Qiniang that he suddenly had a breakthrough in his swordsmanship and made great progress.
This explanation seemed casual, but Zhu Qiniang believed it without a doubt.
The low and sharp sword chant of the Qing Frost Sword could be heard even through the walls. Gao Xian's sword had reached a terrifying level.
It was obvious that Gao Xian had made great progress in his swordsmanship.
As for how Gao Xian achieved this, it was his secret. He didn't want to say more, and she wouldn't ask.
"Wait for my news."
Gao Xian nodded at Zhu Qiniang and then activated his Feather Flight Technique, Scent Detection Technique, and Shadowless Garment Technique in succession.
After the water-like glow enveloped his body completely stabilized, Gao Xian finally climbed over the wall and went out.
In fact, the Magnetic Wheel was very suitable for the Shadowless Garment Technique. It allowed for silent and agile movement. However, the Magnetic Wheel conflicted with the Shadowless Garment Technique and would disrupt its stealth effect. Additionally, the Magnetic Wheel also consumed a lot of mana, making it unsuitable for long-distance travel.
Using the Scent Detection Technique to lock onto the lingering scent of pine resin, Gao Xian arrived at the outskirts of the southern area of Feima Town.
The outskirts were close to the edge of Feima Town, with vast land and few people. The houses were built haphazardly, with no regularity. Narrow and winding paths were lined with overgrown weeds and shrubs. Occasionally, small creatures like mice and foxes would dart out from the grass.
There were already few people here, and with the deepening night, there were no human figures to be seen.
Gao Xian originally thought that this place was desolate and there shouldn't be many people. However, he quickly changed his mind.
Under a large tree, a dozen or so people were gathered around a bonfire, roasting meat. The meat on the bonfire should be from some kind of demonic beast, as it was quite large.
The aroma of the roasted meat, strong alcohol, and the noisy voices spread everywhere with the night wind.
Gao Xian used the Scent Detection Technique to focus on the scent of pine resin and didn't pay attention to the meat and alcohol.
Mainly because there were too many complex smells in Feima Town, he had to filter out other scents and focus on the pine resin in order to accurately locate the other party.
Gao Xian took a few more steps forward and suddenly noticed two people crouching on a tree by the road.
One of the thin cultivators was hiding very well. If it weren't for the heavy breathing of the person beside him, Gao Xian would have almost missed the person hiding in the tree.
Gao Xian was somewhat surprised to find that there were still hidden sentries. Although the weather wasn't very hot, while others were eating and drinking, these two were crouching on the tree to keep watch. It wasn't a pleasant experience.
He simply ignored the two hidden sentinels, and it didn't have much impact. With the Shadowless Cloak, the other party couldn't detect his presence at all.
Gao Xian thought for a moment and didn't bother with these two people. Killing them would be easy, but it would easily alert the people inside. He silently approached beneath the big tree.
By the flickering bonfire, a group of cultivators were drinking, their faces flushed. They all looked more or less the same.
However, Gao Xian immediately recognized the two cultivators who had been watching the Zhou family during the day. Their hair was disheveled, and their faces and bodies were covered in grease and alcohol stains, indicating that they had been drinking quite a bit.
However, their eyes were bright, and their movements were steady, showing no signs of drunkenness.
The same was true for the others. They had all drunk a lot, and the atmosphere was somewhat rowdy, but no one was truly drunk.
After all, they were cultivators, and ordinary alcohol couldn't easily intoxicate them.
Gao Xian noticed that all the cultivators had white cloth strips tied around their arms. It seemed to be their common identification, and it was a temporary one.
"Are they planning something big?"
Gao Xian's gaze fell on the courtyard behind the crowd, where the lights were also on, and faint voices could be heard.
A rough estimate indicated that there were at least five or six people inside.
With such a group, each of them at least at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, there were more than twenty of them in total.
After considering for a moment, Gao Xian decided to walk straight through the crowd and into the courtyard.
There was also a table set up in the courtyard, with five people sitting around it. Their attire and demeanor were obviously stronger than those outside. Two of them were even late-stage Qi Refining cultivators.
No one in the group noticed the outsider in the courtyard. They were talking and laughing, all very relaxed.
"After eating and drinking our fill, let's get to work!"
"I heard that Zhou Ye has a very beautiful daughter. When the time comes, let's capture her and have some fun together, brothers!"
"But we should let Third Master have his turn first..."
"I say Huang Ying from the Bai Bing Hall is the most delicious. That slender waist and plump figure, I really want to taste her!"
"Or the women from the Feihua Courtyard are great. The secret techniques of the Endless Pleasure Sect are not just empty talk!"
"The most important thing is to get spirit stones first. As long as we have enough spirit stones, even Foundation Building cultivators can have some fun..."
As the group was happily discussing, a middle-aged man walked out of the main room. This man had fair skin and handsome features, with a neatly trimmed mustache. He was wearing a white robe that faintly shimmered with silver light. As he moved, the silver light on the robe fluctuated like scales, exuding a sharp aura amidst its splendor.
He had a green lotus-patterned belt around his waist, with a sheathed long sword slanted on it.
The man in the white robe walked up to the table and put his arm around the shoulder of a bald man, saying, "Lao Niu, stop drinking and get ready to leave."
Everyone at the table stood up in a hurry, showing respectful expressions. The bald man also stood up carefully, slightly bowing and saying, "San Ye, we are all ready, just waiting for your orders."
Gao Xian quietly watched from the side, and no one in the room noticed anything unusual. The Shadowless Robe at the Grandmaster level was indeed so exquisite.
Upon hearing the bald man's address, Gao Xian could almost confirm that the man in the white robe was the leader of the Red Snake Gang.
These people liked to address each other as "Fourth Lord" or "Second Lord," and this person being called "Third Lord" should be Bai She, the third eldest of the White Snake.
The internal situation of the Red Snake Gang was very complicated, and outsiders only knew the name of the Red Snake Gang.
Gao Xian knew that San Ye was Bai She, as Zhu Qi Niang had told him. Well, Qi Niang had obtained the information from Qing Ping.
There was a sinister aura between the eyebrows of the man in the white robe, and his eyes were cold and stern. Indeed, there was a snake-like feeling about him.
The man in the white robe instructed the bald man, "Go outside and gather the people, don't let them scatter. Remember to send a few clever ones as scouts, don't make any mistakes..."
The bald man nodded vigorously, "Don't worry, San Ye, they are all bold and daring fellows, nothing will go wrong."
"Don't be careless, Lao Er was caught here." The man in the white robe's face became gloomy, "Whoever messes up my affairs, I will take their life."
Everyone's expressions became solemn, and they responded in unison.
The bald man hurriedly assured, "San Ye, Lao Gui has been keeping watch outside with his men, no one can get in."
Lao Gui was the most skilled cultivator in concealing his aura in the Red Snake Gang, and he had a lot of tricks up his sleeve, always appearing and disappearing like a ghost, hence the nickname Lao Gui.
Bai She nodded, "That's good."
While the two were talking, a thin black man entered the room, wearing a black robe and carrying a sword at his waist.
This person had a pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks, and his appearance was quite ugly. Especially his small eyes flickered unpredictably, and his actions carried a sense of sneakiness and slyness.
As soon as he entered the room, he bowed to Bai She, "San Ye, I'm here."
Bai She was also quite polite to this person, nodding slightly, "Lao Jiu, we've been waiting for you."
Lao Jiu chuckled, "I've made the arrangements. As long as we make a move, they will respond. At least two hundred or so!"
Bai She said, "Set a fire in a pile of dry firewood, and the firewood will burn itself into ashes. This is the nature of things. Set a fire in the heart of the Fei Ma Sect, and it will ignite the greed in the hearts of all the scattered cultivators. This is human nature. When the scattered cultivators go wild, the Fei Ma Sect will be finished."
He smirked again, "At that time, the Fei Ma Sect will be like a woman stripped of her clothes, we can do whatever we want..."
Everyone was stirred up with hot blood, each one rubbing their fists and wishing they could start right away.
"Lao Niu, you and a few others go organize the people..."
White Snake waved her hand and sent away the group of people, leaving only Lao Jiu behind.
Seeing that there was no one around, Lao Jiu leaned in and asked White Snake in a low voice, "Third Master, did we find anything good in the mountains?"
"It's not that easy. The ruins are too large, and we have only managed to dig through two caves on the outskirts," White Snake replied in a lowered voice. "After we finish this deal, you'll come back to the mountains with me to lay low. When we find something good, you won't be left out."
"Thank you, Third Master," Lao Jiu said with a smile. He patted his chest and assured, "I've been here for a few months and made friends with a group of brothers. They may not be good at other things, but they are experts in killing, arson, and robbery!"
White Snake nodded and pondered for a moment before asking, "Have you heard any news?"
Lao Jiu shook his head repeatedly. "Not a single word. They don't even know that Second Master was killed here. It's indeed strange."
He continued, "But Feima Gathering has nearly twenty thousand cultivators, a mix of dragons and snakes. It's normal for something unexpected to happen."
At the beginning of the year, Black Snake, who was responsible for luring demonic beasts, disappeared without a trace. They searched for a long time and only found a pile of bones in a collapsed house, but they couldn't confirm if it was Black Snake or not.
As a result, the Red Snake gang sent some people to infiltrate Feima Gathering and secretly investigate for several months, but they found nothing.
White Snake was slightly worried about this as well, but their business was to kill, and they couldn't afford to hesitate.
Li Shuanglin had entered the mountains, and he wouldn't return within a day or two. This was their best opportunity.
While White Snake and Lao Jiu whispered to each other, they couldn't have imagined that there was someone standing just a yard away.
Gao Xian had sharp ears and could hear every word they said clearly.
"Ruins, caves, excavation, good things," these words made him suddenly realize that the Red Snake gang had discovered an ancient sect's ruins deep in Tengshe Mountain!
In the past year, he had read many miscellaneous books, and many of them mentioned cultivators accidentally entering ancient sect ruins and obtaining divine artifacts and secret techniques, propelling them to great heights.
He never expected that there would actually be an ancient sect ruins in the depths of Tengshe Mountain.
The Red Snake gang was causing trouble in Feima Gathering in order to drive away the disciples of Lianyun Sect. Everything suddenly made sense...
Gao Xian understood the Red Snake gang's intentions, but he was in a dilemma. These people were about to go to the Zhou family to cause trouble. What should he do?
If it were just White Snake, Lao Niu, and a few others, he believed he could easily deal with them.
The problem was that there were nearly thirty people in total now, and that number was a bit too much.
Gao Xian was extremely nervous, but amidst the nervousness, there seemed to be an indescribable excitement...
