Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 576: Traces of Mountainseas (3)

"I\'m Hong Chen from the Devil Scorpion Sect."

Blood Rakshasha felt extremely helpless to see that happen. Nothing would change even if he refused to come. Bloodmoon and One-eye had been too high-profile, attracting the attention of his two allies. If he had refused to come, they would simply come without him.

Five Mountainseas had been gathered together.

Bloodmoon went straight to the point, "The mountain giant in their group is already seriously injured. Even if there are only five of us, we are definitely stronger than the six of them. Blood Rakshasha is a seventh-stage Mountainsea so we can even launch a frontal attack. They still have a bunch of students dragging them down. I suggest that we launch a frontal attack and capture Su Yu directly."

He added, "If we drag this out, none of us will survive the moment the Xia Family arrives. I don\'t intend to keep waiting like the other fools. What are you waiting for? Death?"

The other two Mountainseas nodded in agreement. Things would only get more dangerous if they waited longer. As cultists, they were better off launching an attack and ending things promptly.

This whole journey of Su Yu was causing more and more ruckus. Fortunately, not much time had passed. If they waited until the Xia Family was here, they would turn into prey instead.

Bloodmoon said, "Blood Rakshasha, you have the highest cultivation among us. Thus, I was willing to listen to you before this. But if we keep waiting around, none of us will survive. We need to make a move immediately. Either that or we give up. You\'re relying on the single character faction, but what if they\'re plotting against you as well? How are we supposed to work with them when they don\'t even have a representative here?"

Bloodmoon coldly said, "If they want to work with us, they have to meet with us. That way, we can compare our strength with theirs. If they turn out to be too strong, we need to start being wary of being backstabbed by them. Don\'t even dream of leading the operation with only your words, Blood Rakshasha."

"That\'s right. Blood Rakshasha, where is their representative? I fail to see any sincerity in their part."

The other two Mountainseas started questioning the plan as well. Seeing that, both Bloodmoon and One-eye exchanged a hidden smile. Only when all their enemies were gathered together would they be able to exterminate all those people in one fell swoop.

Since they had decided to infiltrate the opposing camp, it would be a waste to not get a leadership position while they were at it. It was unfortunate that they weren\'t stronger than Blood Rakshasha. Otherwise, they could have directly snatched the leadership position.

In truth, Blood Rakshasha himself had also been worrying about the single character faction. Thus, he nodded and said, "I can talk to them. You\'re right. We need to be careful of betrayal."

He then took out a voice transmission talisman. After a short while, he said, "Let\'s wait. The contact person is checking with his superiors."

At the same time.

After taking a look at her voice transmission talisman, Yu Hong frowned and said, "They are demanding that we meet up with them or they will cancel the cooperation."

Old Zheng frowned and said, "Is this proper? Elder Yu, this is already very risky for us. If we do meet up with them, we won\'t be able to escape death in the event of exposure."

This was very improper. If they worked separately, he could always claim that he was taking a stroll if he was caught. But if he actually grouped up with the cult, things would be very troublesome if he was caught.

After thinking for a bit, Yu Hong said, "It\'s fine. If we are exposed, we will silence all witnesses, including the cultists. It\'s not like there\'s no precedence of human experts going undercover in the cult.

"We even have many spies who are actually sect masters of the various sects. As long as we don\'t infringe on the benefits of the Xia Family, we will be fine. After killing Su Yu, we won\'t need the cult anymore."

Old Zheng was still worried. After a short while, he said, "In that case, we should erase all of them toward the end." "We need to eliminate all of them or they will have a very strong blackmail material to use against us."

"I agree."

Yu Hong agreed. That wouldn\'t be an issue. They had plenty of Mountainseas on their side. After the deed was done, they could join hands with the cloud tigers and easily wipe out all the cultists.

After all, the cultists were unaware of the fact that the cloud tiger elder and a few others were also on the single character faction\'s side.

Half an hour later.

Both Yu Hong and Old Zheng arrived before One-eye and company. However, the air in front of their faces was distorted, making it hard to see their true appearances.

When One-eye saw them, he snorted, and asked, "Are there only the two of you?"

"Is that not enough?"

Yu Hong spoke with a cold tone as her aura erupted, revealing her cultivation at the seventh-stage Mountainsea Realm. At the same time, Old Zheng released his aura as well, exposing his sixth-stage Mountainsea Realm cultivation.

"Tsk, tsk. Looks like both of you are quite strong."

Bloodmoon sneered and said, "Even so, if there are only the two of you, it\'s not enough. Including the two of you, we have seven Mountainseas against their six. But Great Xia might have a Mountainsea hidden somewhere nearby, making it seven against seven. That is not enough. If we proceed in this manner, a battle to the death between us and them will break out the moment we reach the ruin. In that case, we might as well attack now and capture Su Yu. It is safer to interrogate him for the ruin right now with our numbers."

Yu Hong coldly said, "One of us is not here yet. That person will be here soon. They don\'t have any late-stage Mountainseas while both Blood Rakshasha and I are late-stage Mountainseas. What\'s so dangerous about this? The two of you should stop creating trouble for us!"

Yu Hong was quite furious as well. Bloodmoon and One-eye had been creating trouble repeatedly. If this continued, would Su Yu still dare to continue toward the ruin? Things were not too bad yet with only two enemy Mountainseas. But if more Mountainseas showed up, Su Yu would definitely give up.

This was also why they had decided to reveal themselves to these cultists. They needed to keep Bloodmoon and One-eye in check.

Bloodmoon sneered and said, "Sure. We won\'t do anything rash. But you better not create trouble when we find the ruin. Also, when the time comes to make a move, we won\'t dare to truly cooperate with you unless you kill a Mountainsea before us. I believe someone from the Xia Family is here. I only have a simple request. We will deal with the others, but the two of you need to kill the person from the Xia Family."

The other cultists said nothing, but they agreed. They wanted the single character faction to kill someone from the Xia Family. How would they dare to trust the single character faction otherwise?

Yu Hong\'s face turned frosty. But after a while, she spat, "Fine."

"Then I guess we have a deal!" Bloodmoon smiled and said, "In that case, I naturally won\'t have any issue cooperating with you. You can even lead this operation if you want. Single character faction...hehehe. I\'ll be relying on your care from now on. After all, we\'re now on the same side."

Both Yu Hong and Old Zheng said nothing.

One-eye smiled and said, "The others can still act as they see fit, but all Mountainseas will stop for now. We don\'t want to scare our prey off, right? Let those fools continue harassing them. We can\'t allow them to be scared off by the perceived peace as well, right? I guess this is a good opportunity for us to remove some of the rogue cultists from Great Xia."

Nobody objected. They didn\'t care about the weaklings.

***

At this time, Su Yu\'s group was less than an hour away from Tianshui.

The frequency of attacks on them had reduced significantly.

Both Bloodmoon and One-eye had also stopped appearing.

Su Yu didn\'t know much, but he was aware that Bloodmoon had met two Mountainseas from the single character faction. One of them was at the seventh stage while the other was at the sixth stage.

He could guess who the seventh-stage Mountainsea was. As for the sixth-stage Mountainsea, that was probably the visitor from Great Shang. How brazen. The single character faction was truly brazen. They actually dared to meet up with the cultists.

All of them should be here already, right?

The other Mountainsea Yu Hong mentioned was probably Elder Li. All three elders had been gathered. As for the cultists, excluding Bloodmoon and One-eye, there were three Mountainseas on their side.

They had six Mountainseas in total. Including the cloud tiger, barbaric bull, and fox, they would receive the help of three additional Mountainseas. That put the number of known enemy Mountainseas at nine.

Su Yu licked his lips. He had to increase the pace in case these people started getting suspicious. There were actually nine of them. What a crazy number. Yu Hong and company had a truly high opinion of him if they were mustering so much force just to deal with him.

"This is enough. Getting nine Mountainseas killed will be enough to spread my name everywhere."

Of course, he also needed to ensure his own survival if he wanted to enjoy the fame.

"Pick up the pace." Su Yu hollered at the group, "Let\'s move faster. We don\'t want to drag this out."

With his order, the suanni increased his speed. Behind him, the mountaindrill bull and the others also increased their speed.

Facing the sun in the sky, Su Yu said, "We will take a detour around Tianshui and head straight to Nanyuan."

Nobody said anything. They all followed him in silence. The frequency of attacks on them continued to reduce.

Seated atop the mountaindrill bull, Xia Qing looked at Ji Xiaomeng and Li Minyu with an odd expression. Why were these two still here when it was clear that things were going to get dangerous?

Just what were they planning?
