Supreme Demon God

Chapter 291: Ambush

There were a total of nine other small continents in the Profound Sky Continent, and the name "nine treasures of the nine continents" was named after it.

The Everlasting Sword Sect was located in Azure Leaf Continent. Although it was not the most famous sect in Azure Leaf Continent, it was, after all, among the top sects. Even if it had fallen to the second-rate sect, it was still one of the best.

The most powerful sect in the Azure Leaf Continent was the Royal Beast Sect. This was a top sect that came later. When the Everlasting Sword Sect was still in its prime, this sect did not exist at all.

The main strength of the Royal Beast Sect was the Royal Beast, but the strength of this sect itself was very strong. Even without the Royal Beasts, its strength was not weaker than the current Everlasting Sword Sect.

The several continents in the Profound Sky Continent, excluding Spirit Continent, all had one top sect reigned in it each, so there were eight top sects in total.

If any second-rate sect wanted to become the top sect, the existing top sect must be pulled down.

The Everlasting Sword Sect lost to the Royal Beast Sect, so it was reduced from the top sect to the second-rate sect.

But even if it lost to the Royal Beast Sect and became a second-rate sect, the Royal Beast Sect could not destroy the Everlasting Sword Sect, nor could it force the Everlasting Sword Sect to relocate.

After all, the Everlasting Sword Sect still retained a Divine rank treasure, the Absolute Heaven Sword, which the Royal Beast Sect did not have.

If the Everlasting Sword Sect was really to sacrifice the Absolute Heaven Sword, the Royal Beast Sect might not be able to deal with the Everlasting Sword Sect.

Or maybe it could be dealt with, but there would definitely be huge casualties. If that was the case, then the strength of the Royal Beast Sect would drop sharply, and it would not be able to maintain its position at all.

Maybe one day, it would be destroyed by another sect. The gain was not worth the loss.

It was precisely because of this that after Royal Beast Sect became the top sect of the Azure Leaf Continent, it did not deliberately deal with the Everlasting Sword Sect, but instead tried various ways to reconcile with the Everlasting Sword Sect.

The people of the Everlasting Sword Sect were very disgusted with the Royal Beast Sect's shameless attitude, so it was impossible to get along well with the Royal Beast Sect in any case.

The people of the Royal Beast Sect wanted to reconcile with the people of the Everlasting Sword Sect, but they couldn't reconcile. In the end, the two sects could only act as if they had never known each other.

Before one of them could easily kill the other, the two sects would not conflict with each other.

Since even Royal Beast Sect, the boss of Azure Leaf Continent, would not provoke the Everlasting Sword Sect, then it was natural that other forces in Azure Leaf Continent would not provoke the Everlasting Sword Sect.

However, at this time, dozens of miles away from the Everlasting Sword Sect, there were many people lying in ambush, as if waiting for someone to take the bait and attempt to kill him.

Although it was a few tens of miles away from the Everlasting Sword Sect, this place was uninhabited. There was no other way except the road to the Everlasting Sword Sect.

Therefore, it was basically certain that these people were going to kill someone from the Everlasting Sword Sect.

Among these people, the weakest was at the peak of Spirit Extending Realm, the slightly stronger one was in the Soul Opening Realm, stronger than that was in the Transformation Realm, and the strongest was in the Early-stage of the Sky Piercing Realm.

"Elder Mi, are you sure that guy will come in this direction? With our strength is so strong, it's not a problem even if we directly enter the Everlasting Sword Sect, right? In the end, we will definitely be able to retreat all over," a middle-aged man at the peak of the Transformation Realm said.

Elder Mi was the only Sky Piercing Realm cultivator, and he was also the person in charge and leader of this operation.

He glanced at the middle-aged man, his eyes seemed to be dissatisfied, "This is a secret that was finally deduced. How can it go wrong? Besides, the Everlasting Sword Sect has the Absolute Heaven Sword, so if we enter, let alone catch that guy, we may not be able to escape in the end."

"No, Elder Mi, I mean..." the middle-aged man hesitated for a while, and finally said what was in his heart, "after waiting for so many days, we saw no one. If the guy really doesn't plan to come this way, do we really have to wait forever? The point is that we haven't heard that that guy has plans to go out."

"He will come out. It's been quite a while since he came to the Everlasting Sword Sect, so he will definitely want to leave the Everlasting Sword Sect and take a look outside. What we have to do is to believe in the calculations of the sect and wait patiently. We have to kill him in one fell swoop when he appears, avenge the young master, and wash away the humiliation for the Sect Master!" Elder Mi said patiently.

Speaking of the young master, the middle-aged man finally stopped saying anything.

At this time, Elder Mi suddenly received a message, "That guy has left the Everlasting Sword Sect, and there is another person with him, who seems to be his apprentice, but their route is exactly the same as we calculated in advance."

After receiving the news, Elder Mi was stunned for a moment, and soon he was overjoyed. He turned around and said to the middle-aged man before, "He's coming, let everyone be prepared!"

...

The person who left the Everlasting Sword Sect at this time was naturally Mo Xiu, and the person who left with Mo Xiu was undoubtedly Ming Huang.

Originally, the people of the Everlasting Sword Sect did not agree with Mo Xiu going out. After all, the current Mo Xiu was very important to the Everlasting Sword Sect, unlike when Mo Xiu first came to the Everlasting Sword Sect.

The time he spent in the Everlasting Sword Sect was not long, so of course they were not willing to let Mo Xiu leave. Otherwise, if Mo Xiu accidentally rebelled or joined another sect, wouldn't it be a big loss for the Everlasting Sword Sect?

The other apprentices of Mo Xiu never thought about letting Mo Xiu stay, but they hoped to leave with Mo Xiu.

Regardless of Gongsun Zhi, Chen Yutong, and Zhao Lingshang, or other members of the Everlasting Sword Sect, all of their requests were rejected by Mo Xiu.

After all, Mo Xiu's destination this time was the small mountain village where Ming Huang was born to see if there were any undiscovered geniuses, not to go sightseeing.

Although leaving those three in the Everlasting Sword Sect was not very reassuring, the problem was not big.

Apart from not bringing these three people, he was not even going to bring the scripture pavilion and Sword Raising Gourd, even Yuan Rou also stayed.

During his absence, the scripture pavilion would remain open as usual. Gongsun Zhi, Chen Yutong, and Zhao Lingshang could help manage it.

If the other members of the sect had a crooked idea, they could also close the pavilion without allowing anything and anyone to enter.

Of course, the trio could not use the power of the scripture pavilion to deal with those elders. But Mo Xiu didn't plan to rely on the three to guard the pavilion. He left the control to Yuan Rou.

This was also the reason why Mo Xiu kept Yuan Rou and the Sword Raising Gourd in the Everlasting Sword Sect.

So since the scripture pavilion wasn't taken away, and it was open as usual at that, those people no long refused Mo Xiu from leaving.

Even if they strongly objected to him, he would still leave. Mo Xiu intended to cultivate the power to return to the Realm of Heaven. Looking for people with strong aptitude or potential to train was the most important thing for him at present.

Some people wanted to ambush him near the sect. This was unexpected for Mo Xiu.

After all, he had never gone out since he came to the Everlasting Sword Sect, so it was reasonable that no one would lie in an ambush to kill him.

At first, he didn't notice it. But after quite a distance away from the Everlasting Sword Sect, he had already discovered something wrong before he reached the ambush.

"Go, change direction."

After realizing that something was wrong, Mo Xiu took Ming Huang into the sky and flew in the other direction.

After Ming Huang realized, he was puzzled, "Master, is there anything wrong?"

"Some people set up an ambush to kill us," Mo Xiu replied without hesitation.

Ming Huang was stunned and quickly said, "Your strength is so strong, you should be able to easily kill even a Sky Piercing Realm cultivator. Then why do we change direction?"

Until now, Ming Huang didn't know Mo Xiu's specific cultivation base, only that those elders of the Everlasting Sword Sect could not do anything to Mo Xiu, and several elders even died under Mo Xiu's hands.

In his thoughts, Mo Xiu had such a powerful strength, so why did they have to change direction? 

Mo Xiu had only relied on the scripture pavilion to show off previously, so naturally, it was impossible to kill all those who were in ambush.

Not to mention killing those who were in ambush, a carelessness might cause Ming Huang to fall into the hands of those people.

In that case, even if those people couldn't kill him and Ming Huang, there would be a lot of trouble. This was not what he wanted to see.

Therefore, he must change the direction to avoid those ambushers.

He knew what was going on in his heart, but Mo Xiu didn't say it.

Ming Huang couldn't get an explanation from Mo Xiu, and he didn't feel surprised. Instead, he found an answer for himself, "Master, I'm sorry, I'm slowing you down."

Mo Xiu: "..."

Before he could say anything, his Divine Consciousness detected that those ambushers had already hurried over to kill him and Ming Huang.
