In the pitch-black and steep woods.

The Iron Wire Sect Leader was frightened, cold sweat pouring down like rain, desperately increasing his speed, racing wildly into the distance, his feet making whooshing sounds as they hit the ground, somewhat reckless in his path.

Yet, as he rushed forward, the tension and anxiety entwined in his heart not only failed to diminish but grew even more intense.

He couldn't help but secretly curse in his heart.

Damn it!

What on earth is the Kong Family doing?

Wasn't Kong Daorong supposed to lead experts to attack from the front mountain?

Why haven't they appeared?

Ah!

As he fled in panic, suddenly a piercingly sharp scream came from behind.

He listened intently, deep fear in his heart, it was clearly the voice of the Peacock Sect Leader.

The Peacock Sect Leader, at the third level of Blood Exchange. His strength was almost on par with his own, just slightly weaker in survival speed, and now he was tragically dead.

If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have agreed to the Kong Family's request to come here!

As this shock gripped him, a drastically urgent and piercing sound rapidly approached from behind as if something terrifying was coming at high speed.

The Iron Wire Sect Leader was scared out of his wits and, without thinking, quickly dodged to the side, forcibly shifting away horizontally.

A corpse almost brushed past him, hurtling past his side and crashing into a large tree over ten meters ahead with a boom.

The moment he saw the corpse, the Iron Wire Sect Leader's eyes widened in horror.

Peacock Sect Leader!

Is this the body of the Peacock Sect Leader?

He was utterly terrified, at this moment not even daring to flee, directly collapsing to the ground, raising both hands high, howling in tears.

"Spare me, Great Hero, I didn't kill anyone... "

Jiang Shi, who was rapidly pursuing, frowned, his body coming to an abrupt halt, appearing in front of the burly man with a tear-streaked face.

"With such a greedy and cowardly mindset, you dare to engage in massacres and robberies?"

"Spare me, Young Hero Jiang, I haven't stolen anything, I was forced, I had no choice but to come, the Kong Family is coercing me... "

Pft!

As soon as the words fell.

Jiang Shi's hand swiftly grabbed his face, a fierce and terrible grasp tore the Iron Wire Sect Leader's entire face apart, blood splattering, his mouth letting out a miserable scream.

"Listen, I don't care if you were forced or not, now I want to know what your action plan was tonight? Why did you dare to attack the Black Lotus Holy Sect? Where is our Sect Leader? Tell me your plan in detail?"

Jiang Shi's tone was cold, firmly clutching the Iron Wire Sect Leader's face as he spoke.

"I'll tell you, tonight was led by the Kong Family, aiming to probe your Black Lotus Holy Sect, we all got cheated by the Kong Family, they told us their Supreme Elder would lead experts to attack the Black Lotus Holy Sect from the front mountain and instructed us to attack from the back mountain, but we didn't encounter anyone from the front mountain, and as for the Black Lotus Sect Leader, he was led away by True Master Wuji, the current situation I also don't know... "

The Iron Wire Sect Leader spoke in suffering.

"Is that so?"

Jiang Shi's eyes turned slightly cold.

True Master Wuji leading away the Black Lotus Sect Leader?

Out of nowhere, another True Master Wuji appeared!

"What is the strength of this True Master Wuji?"

"Unfathomable, he's an old monster who hasn't walked the Jianghu for many years, it is said... it is said he even had a friendship with the Black Lotus Sect Leader, who is stronger between the two, I don't know."

The Iron Wire Sect Leader responded.

"Then who among the Kong Family's experts led you to attack the Black Lotus Sect tonight? What's their cultivation?"

Jiang Shi's tone was cold, "The four Kong Family experts who came with you earlier also seemed quite strong, were they the leaders?"

"It wasn't them, there's another person, named Kong Gaoyun, he is the Fourth Elder of the Kong Family, currently in one of the manor houses in Sanshi Town, Kong Gaoyun is very intelligent, always known as the wise star of the Kong Family, tonight we were all tricked by him, he outwardly had us and the Kong Family deal with the Black Lotus Holy Sect, but surely we were being used as pawns!"

The Iron Wire Sect Leader howled miserably.

These were things he had just realized.

Being quick-witted and sharp-minded, he had figured it all out the moment he fled the Black Lotus Holy Sect, and to save his life, he naturally spilled everything.

"Kong Gaoyun? What is his strength?"

Jiang Shi inquired.

"Peak of the Fourth Layer of Blood Exchange!"

The Iron Wire Sect Leader spoke in pain, "Young Hero Jiang, I truly didn't kill any disciples of the Black Lotus Holy Sect, I just came to fish in troubled waters!"

"Good, I won't kill you, but to prevent you from escaping, I'll have to leave some measures."

Jiang Shi's tone was calm.

Crack! Crack!

He moved swiftly like lightning, quickly breaking the Iron Wire Sect Leader's limbs, tossing him down between some rocks, then looked thoughtfully into the distance.

Whoosh!

Jiang Shi's body trembled, quickly disappearing from the spot.

···

Night had not yet faded.

A pitch-black scene.

The overcast clouds in the sky had gradually dispersed, revealing a bright and large moon, illuminating the surroundings and casting a faint bright glow over the entire mountains and forests.

Sanshi Town.

Three figures in tattered clothes sped swiftly through the night, their muscles bulging, and veins protruding, resembling three giant statues charging towards a broad building.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Without even knocking, they darted over the wall in a flash.

In the yard.

Kong Gaoyun, who was waiting carefully, suddenly looked up with a changed expression.

"Could it be that the Black Lotus Holy Sect truly had other hidden powers?"
