Chapter 113: Framing
The death of Mao Tu further provoked the escaping Wei Yang and Xugou.
At this moment, the two of them were entangled by the main force of the Diyuan Underworld Clan led by the Seventh Prince, making it impossible for them to escape for a moment.
A ferocious look flashed across Wei Yang's face, and after blasting back the Seventh Prince and the numerous Underworld people blocking his way with a single palm strike…
Wei Yang pressed his fingers together into a sword, rapidly poking seven times on his own body.
As seven forces entered his body, a purple evil sheep phantom was immediately forced out from within Wei Yang's body.
This was a Questioning Diety Realm evil sheep Divine Soul that Wei Yang had previously refined into his body by a stroke of Opportunity.
For Wei Yang, who cultivated the evil sheep Cultivation Technique, the effect of this evil sheep Divine Soul was no less than a Questioning Diety Crystal.
It was considered a guarantee for him to be able to advance to the Questioning Diety Realm in the future.
This evil sheep Divine Soul had long merged into one with Wei Yang's Divine Soul.
At this moment, being forcibly split and cut out by Wei Yang using a secret technique, for Wei Yang, it was not only the loss of a treasure equivalent to a Questioning Diety Crystal.
Moreover, it caused an irrecoverable and huge injury to his Divine Soul.
Under the crisis of life and death, Wei Yang could no longer care about so much.
As long as he was alive, no matter what kind of loss it was, there would still be a chance to make up for it in the future.
If his life was lost, then nothing would have any meaning.
Seeing that after splitting out this evil sheep Divine Soul, Wei Yang's cultivation began to drop rapidly downwards.
In the blink of an eye, it directly dropped from the Soul Formation stage Late Stage Great Perfection to the Soul Formation stage Early Stage Realm.
Wei Yang fiercely glanced at the Third Prince who was pursuing him, and then pointed a finger towards the Third Prince's direction.
The evil sheep Divine Soul immediately rushed fiercely towards the Third Prince.
Just at the moment when the evil sheep Divine Soul arrived close to the Third Prince, a cold, low shout came from Wei Yang's mouth:
"Explode!"
As the voice fell, the evil sheep Divine Soul immediately self-destructed beside the Third Prince.
A heaven-shaking roaring sound erupted instantly.
A patch of purple smoke and Qi wave completely covered the Third Prince's figure within it.
Following closely, Wei Yang threw a large amount of Magic Treasures inside his Storage Pouch towards the Seventh Prince who wanted to intercept him again, and then unhesitatingly self-destructed all these Magic Treasures.
Hearing a large number of roaring sounds ringing out, the self-destruction of a large amount of Magic Treasures slightly blocked the steps of the incoming Seventh Prince and the large number of Underworld troops for a moment.
The Opportunity for escape was forcibly created by Wei Yang.
Then Wei Yang said nothing more, and immediately fled away into the distance.
And right at this moment, in the area covered by the purple mist after the self-destruction of the evil sheep Divine Soul…
A burst of green flowing light abruptly pierced through the purple mist.
A disheveled figure rushed out from the purple mist in the blink of an eye.
It was precisely the Third Prince who had been blocked by the self-destruction of the evil sheep Divine Soul.
The escaping Wei Yang swept his Divine Sense slightly behind him, and his expression instantly turned ugly to the extreme.
Wei Yang originally thought that the self-destruction of that evil sheep Divine Soul, even if it didn't severely injure the Third Prince, would at least block the Third Prince's steps for a while.
However, unexpectedly, in just a brief moment, the Third Prince broke through the self-destruction of the evil sheep Divine Soul and chased after him to kill him once more.
At this moment, Wei Yang really had reached his wits' end, and no longer had the slightest Move that he could pull out to block the Questioning Diety Realm Third Prince.
At this moment, the black and white colored rings between the Third Prince's eyebrows were slightly revolving.
The magic power within the Third Prince's body suddenly became even more vigorous.
"Die for me!"
Green light flashed violently on the Third Prince's body, and his figure rushed behind the terrified Wei Yang within a few breaths.
Then he fiercely smashed a punch towards the top of Wei Yang's head.
The despairing Wei Yang no longer had any chance of escaping with his life.
Under this fierce punch, along with his Divine Soul, everything directly shattered apart.
After slaying Wei Yang, the Third Prince immediately rushed non-stop to kill Xugou.
Xugou was currently surrounded and attacked by a large number of Underworld people forming formations. As he dashed left and right, although he slaughtered a large number of Underworld people…
…he was also entangled by the endless Underworld army and simply could not extricate himself.
Coupled with the siege of the Seventh Prince who arrived later, let alone escaping, Xugou was even directly suppressed to a disadvantageous position for a moment.
Seeing that Wei Yang had exhausted all his means and still died in the hands of the Third Prince, Xugou's heart could not help but fall into complete despair.
"Die!"
Right at this moment, carrying endless green spiritual light on his body, the Third Prince fiercely struck a palm towards Xugou.
Even though Xugou exhausted his means, his Primordial Spirit was still shattered by a palm from the Questioning Diety Realm Third Prince, perishing in the Third Prince's hands.
After slaying Wei Yang and the others completely, the Third Prince took out a Jade Slip with a sinister smile, and after saying something inside it with his Divine Sense…
…he casually threw the Jade Slip onto Xugou's corpse.
Afterwards, the Third Prince ordered people to collect all the corpses of those from the Diyuan Underworld Clan who died in battle, leaving not a single bit behind.
They only left behind the corpses of the Daluo Sword Sect, lying on the surface of the swamp ground.
After finishing these, the Third Prince took the main force of the Diyuan Underworld Clan and quickly left this place.
After the Third Prince and the others had left for a period of time, a figure slowly manifested out from within this swamp.
It was precisely Sun Xuan, who had pursued to this place by following that strange fluctuation.
Sun Xuan looked at the fragmented corpses on the ground, a trace of contemplative expression faintly appearing in his eyes.
After scanning through the fragmented corpses on the ground several times, a sound transmission Jade Slip came into Sun Xuan's view.
Sun Xuan's expression stirred as he raised his hand and beckoned towards that sound transmission Jade Slip, which immediately flew into his hand.
Following closely, Sun Xuan swept his Divine Sense into the sound transmission Jade Slip, and a featureless, neutral voice indifferently entered his ears.
"Daring to use the Fire Spirit clan of the Sea of Fire to scheme against us, you must be prepared to pay the price."
"Right now, these are just a bit of interest; none of you all can even think of escaping!"
After listening to this voice, a trace of doubt instantly revealed itself in Sun Xuan's eyes.
Originally upon seeing these corpses, Sun Xuan thought it was people from Jiuyou Palace who had slain these Cultivators who were obviously from the Daluo Sword Sect.
However, after looking at this sound transmission Jade Slip, Sun Xuan became somewhat doubtful.
If the people of Jiuyou Palace had wiped out the people of the Daluo Sword Sect…
Then leaving this sound transmission Jade Slip was completely redundant, unnecessary and superfluous.
Furthermore, it did not have any meaning at all.
And based on Sun Xuan's observations of Palace Master Ouyang Mo and the others, he felt that the people of Jiuyou Palace couldn't do such a boring thing.
As a result, things became interesting.
This situation indicated that a third-party force had very likely intervened in it.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Sun Xuan's mouth as he casually threw this Jade Slip back onto Xugou's corpse.
Then, once again following the strange fluctuation that was attracting him at all times, he flew towards the distance at high speed.
However, after flying away from this place, Sun Xuan communicated with Zi Shu through the Low Grade immortal technique Xuanzhao Evil Light, secretly giving him an order.
He had Zi Shu lead a wave of Daluo Sword Sect people to investigate this battlefield where Wei Yang and the others were slain.
Under Zi Shu's operation, Chou Niu, who had the highest cultivation Realm among the Twelve Sword Zodiacs, was quietly lured to this place.
Chou Niu's cultivation had already reached the Questioning Diety Middle Stage Realm, making him the second strongest expert among the Twelve Sword Zodiacs, second only to Chen Long.
As for Chen Long, although his cultivation Realm was only Questioning Diety Early Stage, his methods were unfathomable, and he had even mastered several life-saving Divine Abilities personally bestowed by Marquis Lingtian.
Even ordinary Questioning Diety Late Stage Cultivators might not necessarily be Chen Long's match.
Moreover, Chen Long was meticulous and vicious in his methods, so even Chou Niu, whose cultivation had reached the Questioning Diety Middle Stage, was firmly suppressed under Chen Long.
Chou Niu's personality was relatively upright, and he had an extraordinary and deep affection for both the Daluo Sword Sect and the Twelve Sword Zodiacs.
Different from Chen Long's cold and thin temperament, Chou Niu truly regarded the Daluo Sword Sect as his home and treated all the Twelve Sword Zodiacs as his brothers.
Seeing three of the Twelve Sword Zodiacs killed at this moment, the anger and hatred in Chou Niu's heart had reached an incomparable level.
"Roar!
Palace Master Ouyang Mo, old bastard, I want you to die!"
Within Chou Niu's broad body, it was as if an erupted volcano was contained.
He let out a wild roar towards the sky, and the sound transmission Jade Slip in his hand was ground into powder with a snap.
The coercion of the Questioning Diety Middle Stage erupted uncontrollably, causing the entire swamp to sink fully by three feet under this coercion.
"Brothers, follow me to slay Palace Master Ouyang Mo and avenge Xugou and the other three!"
At this moment, accompanying Chou Niu besides Zi Shu, the double-agent whose mind was controlled by Sun Xuan, was another member of the Twelve Sword Zodiacs, Shen Hou.
Shen Hou looked at the scene before him, always feeling that something was not quite right.
Moreover, even if Jiuyou Palace had killed Xugou and the other three, with just their small number of people going to find Jiuyou Palace, it would simply be courting death.
Therefore, at the very first moment, Shen Hou stood up and began to dissuade Chou Niu.
"Chou Niu, things are not quite right. In my opinion, we should first report the situation of this place to Chen Long.
Then it would be best for Chen Long to make a decision.
Jiuyou Palace's strength is not weak, and Palace Master Ouyang Mo's strength is even no weaker than Yinxu.
If we just go knocking on their door like this, not only will we not be able to get revenge.
Even the three of us, along with these thousands of Sect Disciples under our command, all have the possibility of falling into it entirely."
Chou Niu looked at Shen Hou who was blocking in front of him, and his furiously enraged mood slowly calmed down a bit.
And right at this moment, the double-agent Zi Shu immediately jumped out without saying another word.
Zi Shu's eyes were red, glaring angrily at Shen Hou, standing at the moral high ground and accusing him on the spot:
"Shen Hou!
Our three brothers were so cruelly killed here by the people of Jiuyou Palace.
Yet you don't feel any heartache at all. Big Brother Chou Niu wants to avenge the brothers, but you try to stop him in every possible way.
Hehe, if you are afraid of death and cherish your life, you can stay behind and not go.
Big Brother Chou Niu and I can still avenge the brothers just the same!
Xugou, Wei Yang…
You died such a miserable death!"
Receiving Sun Xuan's order, Zi Shu had to instigate the Daluo Sword Sect to go head-on against Jiuyou Palace no matter what.
At this moment, he even squeezed out a few tears like a cat crying over a dead mouse with fake compassion, putting on an appearance of truly being heartbroken to the extreme.
"You…"
Shen Hou was called cowardly and afraid of death by Zi Shu, and the anger in his heart surged up instantly.
But for a moment, he couldn't find a reason to refute.
He could only tremble as he pointed one hand at Zi Shu, the anger in his eyes almost ready to devour someone.
With his back facing Chou Niu, Zi Shu flashed a cold and mocking smile towards Shen Hou's eyes.
Seeing this, Shen Hou's heart shook violently, and his full chest of anger immediately transformed into deep disbelief.
The Zi Shu before his eyes suddenly made him feel somewhat unfamiliar, and even terrified.
Originally, Shen Hou thought that Zi Shu had only said those words because his eyes were blinded by hatred.
But after noticing the look of mockery flashing in Zi Shu's eyes, Shen Hou suddenly felt that matters were not that simple.
This Zi Shu was actually deliberately luring Chou Niu to his death.
His heart was truly punishable!
Thinking of this, Shen Hou's expression gradually calmed down, and the fear and panic in his heart were also slowly suppressed by him.
Shen Hou stared directly at Zi Shu with cold eyes, and spoke indifferently:
"Wrong, you are not Zi Shu, who on earth are you!"
Seeing this, a flash of surprise crossed Zi Shu's eyes, and then he spoke without hesitation:
"Shen Hou, stop playing the fool here.
Playing dumb cannot conceal your cowardly nature of fearing death!"
Seeing this, the corners of Shen Hou's mouth twitched slightly, and the magic power within his body was raised at this moment.
He raised his hand, and a treasured sword flashing with white spiritual light fiercely shot towards Zi Shu.
The moment the treasured sword shot over, a white fierce ape sword spirit manifested from the treasured sword.
Then, taking a step ahead of the treasured sword, the fierce ape sword spirit slapped a palm towards Zi Shu's head.
Seeing this, Zi Shu retreated three steps in a row with his eyes filled with panic, looking at Shen Hou's treasured sword that had suddenly shot over, at a loss for a moment.
Especially after his Zi Shu treasured sword was taken away by Sun Xuan, he did not have any means in his hand to contend against the twelve zodiac treasured swords.
"Enough!"
Just at the moment when Zi Shu could no longer hold back and was about to turn around and run away…
…an angry roar suddenly sounded at this moment.
Following closely, a large hand flashing with yellow light pressed directly onto the top of the white fierce ape's head with a grab.
With a gentle pat from the yellow light's large hand, the fierce ape sword spirit was patted back into Shen Hou's treasured sword.
Afterwards, the yellow light's large hand casually waved towards Shen Hou's treasured sword, and this powerfully formidable treasured sword of Shen Hou was uncontrollably swatted flying backward.
Seeing this, Shen Hou hurriedly reached out to catch the treasured sword.
The moment Shen Hou's hands touched the treasured sword, his expression changed instantly.
A huge counter-shock force surged from the treasured sword and transmitted violently into Shen Hou's body.
Under this immense force, Shen Hou's figure instantly lost control and violently retreated backward through the air.
Stumbling back dozens of steps in succession, he barely stabilized his figure with a pale face.
"The enemies haven't been found yet, and you are already turning on each other among brothers?
Shen Hou, I am so disappointed in you!"
Shen Hou, having stabilized his figure, spoke to Chou Niu with an eager expression:
"Chou Niu, things are not the way you think."
Just as Shen Hou wanted to open his mouth to say something, he was directly interrupted by Chou Niu with a wave of his hand.
"I do not hope there will be a next time for taking action against a brother.
Otherwise, don't blame me for disregarding brotherly ties!"
