Chapter 0354 – One Leaf Blinds the Eye – The Absolute Return

“The Young Sect Master was able to hide his identity in front of them, this strength, it’s truly unfathomable.”

After a few glasses of wine, the atmosphere was also active, and only then did Bisan begin to talk about business.

“Two seniors, I invited you here today because I have something to ask.”

Bithian’s tone, very cautious.

He knew that both the Weird Lord and the Mad Lord, were no good. The Weird Lord was eccentric in nature, ruthless in his methods, and infamous in the jianghu; although the Mad Lord was silent, his sword, however, was faster than anyone else.

The reason they treated themselves with respect was purely for the sake of the alliance master. There was no friendship to speak of between him and these two.

“Recently, I have discovered a shadowy force that is threatening the safety of the Evil Demon Alliance.”

The Odd Lords and the Mad Lords’ faces turned serious when they heard this.

“What is it?”

“Their leader, the instructor of the Four League Hall, Huang Xijing.”

When Huang Xijing’s name came out of Bi Sian’s mouth, both the Weird Lord and the Mad Lord froze.

They obviously did not expect that this so-called “hidden force” would be Huang Xijing.

“If you know who it is, just get rid of it directly, why go through all this trouble?”

“He hides his strength.”

“Need us to step in?”

“That’s right, and it’s going to take both of you together.”

At these words, the atmosphere in the room, at once, became grave.

Bi Sian didn’t hide and directly stated Huang Xijing’s true strength. He knew that at a time like this, any concealment or deception was foolish behavior.

The strange lord asked half-heartedly:

“Does the ally know about this?”

“He doesn’t know yet.”

“Why don’t you tell him?”

What comes next is the key.

“This thing, from the beginning, was about me, and, he tried to kill me.”

“He tried to kill you?”

“That’s right, he’s already sent someone to assassinate me once, that’s why I want to take care of this myself.”

The strange lord stared into Bithan’s eyes and said word for word:

“You want to make a mark in front of the ally and impress him.”

Bithan didn’t deny it.

“Exactly.”

The Weird Lord turned his head to look at the Mad Lord, who still didn’t say a word, just sipping his own mulled wine.

The strange lord did not immediately agree, but asked:

“What makes you think that we will help you?”

Bi Si An didn’t say anything like “make a merit for the Evil Demon Alliance” or “Huang Xijing is plotting to do something wrong” or anything like that.

“I don’t want to beat around the bush, if I can become the Evil Demon Alliance Leader, I can give you whatever you want.”

“You know what I want?”

“On the day you become the alliance leader, I will give you the secret manual of the ‘Chopping Ghost Shadow Steps’ in the Treasure Pavilion, with both hands.”

The eyes of the strange lord, suddenly lit up.

The Chopping Ghost Shadow Steps was exactly the martial arts secret he had dreamed of.

The unique mastery he cultivated, Chopping Iron Man, would be even more powerful if it could be combined with Chopping Ghost Shadow Steps.

Over the years, the reason why he had been born and died for the Evil Demon Alliance was to obtain this secret book.

It was a condition full of temptation, and once he agreed to it, it meant that he had to spare no effort to help Bi Sian so that he could become the Evil Demon Alliance Leader as soon as possible.

But it also meant that once Bithian made good on his promise, he would lose his utility.

“How do you promise that you will keep your word?”

“I can make a note.”

The strange lord finally nodded.

“Okay, I promise.”

Bithian looked at the Mad Lord again.

“Elder, if you have any requests, just mention them, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do my best.”

The Mad Lord finally spoke.

“I want your life.”

At these words, the air in the room, instantly froze.

The strange lord froze for a moment, then burst out laughing.

“You guys, why are you so cold when it’s a rare joke?”

Bithan smiled along.

However, there wasn’t the slightest hint of a smile on the Mad Lord’s face. He went against the norm and said a whole bunch of things.

“When you went to greet the Young Alliance Master just now, I put a power-dispersing poison in the wine. It’s something I’ve improved upon based on ‘Black Rain’, even you may not be able to detect it, right? In less than half an hour, all your internal energy will dissipate. Of course, I’ve already taken the antidote.”

The strange lord’s face, at once, became ugly. He hastily used his energy to check, and sure enough, his internal energy was slowly dissipating.

“Are you crazy? Why are you doing this?”

The Mad Lord ignored the Odd Lord’s questioning and continued:

“Today, you will die here, at the hands of your good brother. I will forge the evidence that you accepted a bribe and assassinated the young alliance master, and then declare to the public that you fled in fear of your crime, and you will never be heard of again.”

The Mad Lord’s words were like thunderbolts from a clear sky, sending both the Strange Lord and Bisan into shock.

“You’re crazy! Do you think I can’t kill you without my inner strength?”

The strange lord’s mouth was brave, but in his heart, he panicked a batch.

Without his inner strength, how could he be a match for the Mad Lord?

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to underestimate you, it’s just, I had to.”

“What favor did Huang Xijing give you?”

Instead of answering, the Mad Lord turned his head to look out the window and said faintly:

“I lost to him, and the loser, must submit to the winner.”

From his tone, Bithan heard a hint of admiration.

It seemed that Huang Xijing’s strength was even stronger than he had imagined. I’m afraid that the reason why the Mad Lord betrayed was not only because of the loser’s promise, but also because he was convinced by Huang Xijing’s strength.

Right at this moment, Jian Wuji, who had been standing on the sidelines, watching with cold eyes, finally spoke up.

“People are unpredictable… I had thought that you would be the one who would betray.”

Jian Wuji’s words attracted everyone’s attention.

The Weird Lords and the Mad Lords, both looked at him in surprise, not understanding why he suddenly interjected.

“You expected this?”

“Since Huang Xijing dared to let you come, it means he has anticipated everything. Since he didn’t stop you, it means he had other arrangements. Don’t you think it’s strange?”

After Jian Wu Ji said this, Bi Si An also felt that something was wrong.

“So what should we do?”

“What to do? You’re asking me?”

“Shouldn’t you have been prepared for this?”

“Why should I prepare early? I’m not an immortal, can I still be unpredictable?”

“Then why don’t you stop me from drinking?”

“How do I stop it? Spit the wine out in front of him?”

Before the words fell, a cold light flashed.

“Swish!”

The fast sword of the mad lord split Jian Wuji’s mask, in half.

“Snap!”

The mask fell to the ground, revealing Jian Wuji’s handsome and peerless face.

He knew that the Mad Lord didn’t mean to kill him, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to dodge in time.

“I’ve been wanting to take off your mask for a long time, it’s suffocating me.”
