C189 Herba phellodendri (1/2)
With a gloomy face, Lu Cheng sat on the main seat of Ganlang Sect. Looking at the complacent look on Kuang Qi's face, for the first time, Lu Cheng had an impulse to go up and ruthlessly ravage him.
In their battle against the Weapons Sect this time, Ganlang Sect did not take the slightest advantage, and losing nearly a third of their strength was fine, but the key point was that all the Ganlang Sect disciples who had participated in the siege of Xie Yunlei and the other four had a kind of fear rising from the bottom of their hearts, afraid to fight with them again.
This was truly a huge blow to the morale of the Ganlang Sect disciples.
What was most infuriating was that Kuang Qi relied on his own ability to injure Yi Yan and make him flee in a sorry state. After returning to the Jiao Kang Star, he did not even put himself, a Ganlang Sect Sect Leader, in his eyes, at all.
With a cold face, he looked at the dejected disciples in the great hall. Lu Cheng could not hold back any longer, his right hand heavily smashed down, and the armrest made of rosewood that was harder than metal was smashed into smithereens with a single palm.
Amidst the flying splinters of wood, Lu Cheng's furious voice resounded throughout the entire hall, ”Why aren't you speaking anymore? Weren't all of them usually very arrogant? Huo Wuyou, tell me, why can't you take down five little fellows with Weapons Sect among more than a hundred of you?! ”
When he asked this question, Lu Cheng seemed to have forgotten that he was forced to retreat by Xie Yunlei's sword.
However, he was the Sect Leader, who would dare point it out right now?
Huo Wuyou, who was called out by Lu Cheng, was a cultivator at the late stage of [Body Fusion]. During the battle against the five of them, he was immediately stabbed by Si Bailing and forced to withdraw from the battle.
Right now, Lu Cheng was using this sharp question to criticize him. Other than being dissatisfied with his performance, Lu Cheng also had another intention: Huo Wu You is Li Yi Fei's man, Lu Cheng also wanted to take this opportunity to suppress Li Yi Fei's forces.
Huo Wu You, who had been called out, was in a daze when he suddenly heard Lu Cheng's words. He couldn't help but be shocked, as he blankly raised his head and looked at Lu Cheng with a glance, and Huo Wu You's gaze uncontrollably drifted towards Li Yi Fei's direction.
Li Yifei frowned as he thought about Lu Cheng's intentions. After feeling Huo Wuyou's pleading gaze, he anxiously stood up to help him out, ”Senior brother Sect Leader, we have all seen the strength of these little thieves from our side. It is not just Junior Brother Huo's fault that we were unable to take them down. I think what is most important for us now is not accountability, but what we should do next. ”
Ever since Lu Gong and Fang He, these two capable assistants had died, it was as if Lu Cheng had lost a pair of arms, and his influence within the Ganlang Sect was far inferior to before.
And Li Yifeng, who had the support of two Loose Immortal Elders, seized the opportunity to rope in disciples and became the second strongest figure after him.
As a result, Lu Cheng had no choice but to give Li Yi Fei face and restrain himself.
< p > ”Hmph!” Then tell me, what should we do now? ”
Lu Cheng glared at Huo Wu You again with a darkened face, and changed the topic.
From the bottom of their hearts, none of these elite Ganlang Sect disciples were willing to face Yi Yan's five disciples.
But at this time, in the face of the raging Lu Cheng, no one dared to touch him either.
He had to be unlucky after he attacked the Weapons Sect, it would be unlucky if he said those words out loud. As a result, all of them cleverly shut their mouths and pretended to be mute.
Lu Cheng watched from above as his disciples pretended to be deaf and mute, causing him to lose face in front of Kuang Qi and become even more furious.
But with Kuang Qi by his side, he had no choice but to use his Sound Transmitting Spirit Sense. Since it was too obvious, he could only glare at his own Zhuo Bu, and indicated for his trusted aide to stand out and say a few words.
What he did not know was that in that battle, Zhuo Bu recalled that his attacks were useless against Xie Yunlei and the other four and couldn't even kill one of his fellow sect members. He couldn't help but shiver from the lingering fear in his heart and shrink his neck back to ignore Lu Cheng's gaze.
Lu Cheng, who had been angered to the point of bursting, rolled up his sleeves. Just as he was about to jump out and beat up these cowards, Kuang Qi, who was observing from the side, pulled him back, ”Lu Sect Leader, calm down. Listen to what this old man has to say. That Yi Yan might have been lucky enough to escape with his life from this old man's sword, but I don't even need to tell him about the consequences of using Blood Escape, do I? In addition, he had already been severely injured and had yet to recover, so he was most likely left with only half a life. Without his support, his disciples were no longer in need of trouble. Right now, the Weapons Sect is already filled with fear, they no longer pose a threat to us, so why should Sect Leader Lu focus all his energy on them? Don't forget, what is our ultimate goal. ”
Lu Cheng's heart skipped a beat as he looked at Kuang Qi in astonishment. He nodded as if he thought of something: ”Elder Kuang Qi's meaning is that we should let go of the half-dead Weapons Sect temporarily and eliminate it first?”
Kuang Qi's face bloomed like a chrysanthemum, the fat on his face wrinkling into dense wrinkles as he laughed complacently: ”That's right! I have already discussed this with the Eldest Brother, now it would probably take quite a bit of effort to eat the Weapons Sect, why take advantage of this opportunity to seize the Herba Fang Sect? At that time, when we control the entire Tianxuan Star Domain, won't we be able to do whatever we want? Why would Sect Leader Lu need to be so anxious for a moment? ”
After Lu Cheng heard what Kuang Qi had said, he lowered his head and carefully thought about it before raising his head to look at the two rows of eyes below him. He finally came to a decision: ”Then, we'll allow them to live a little longer, and focus all of their power to eliminate Herba Fang Sect first! At that time, Weapons Sect? ”Humph!”
After obtaining the answer from Lu Cheng, no matter whether it was Kuang Qi or the several tens of Ganlang Sect disciples present, all of them heaved a sigh of relief at the bottom of their hearts.
