Chapter 425 The Other Side Of Murong Fu
"Zhao Gao?" Murong Fu said with a gloomy face.
By now, he had already figured out what was going on.
Gu Mingzhou and Floating Jade Island Master almost instantly understood the general situation.
The first elder holding Zhao Gao hostage was fake.
Joining forces with the first elder to put on a show and sneak into the Heavenly Sword Sect to start a coup was the real thing!
Zhao Gao deceived Murong Fu and entered the Heavenly Sword Sect, so why did he ask Gu Mingzhou to come?
Gu Mingzhou didn't know, Floating Jade Island Master didn't know, and Murong Fu might not know either.
Murong Fu's gaze shifted from Zhao Gao to Gu Mingzhou and the Floating Jade Island Master.
They obviously suspected that their arrival was also a trap!
Murong Fu had to pay attention to this.
If it was the fifth elder or the first elder, Murong Fu would be able to protect himself even with a net.
However, the situation would be very different between Floating Jade Island Master and Gu Mingzhou, whose cultivation was not any weaker than Floating Jade Island Master.
Murong Fu's guards were helpless against Floating Jade Island Master and Gu Mingzhou!
Murong Fu's expression became serious as Zhao Gao appeared.
His eyes darted back and forth between Gu Mingzhou, the Island Master of Floating Jade Island, and Zhao Gao, as if he was trying to guess the connection between the three.
This was extremely important to him!
"Did Brother Liu and Little Brother Gu also join their side?" Murong Fu voiced his doubts.
"Sect Master, please don't misunderstand. You can treat me as a bystander." Floating Jade Island Master glanced at Zhao Gao and said in a self-deprecating manner.
"Little Brother Gu, what about you?" The Island Master of Floating Jade Island quickly clarified his relationship with Murong Fu. Murong Fu immediately heaved a sigh of relief and turned to look at Gu Mingzhou.
Gu Mingzhou fell into silence.
Of course, he didn't know Zhao Gao and the first elder had incited a rebellion.
However, he couldn't deny his relationship with Zhao Gao, who had saved his life. He couldn't just ignore him.
He turned his gaze to Zhao Gao.
"Sect Master, I need a reason." Gu Mingzhou said.
He needed to know what Zhao Gao was up to!
It was not a wise choice to start a civil war when there were still powerful enemies.
It was very likely that they would be wiped out by Xu Fengyu and become the final winner.
He could not figure out what Zhao Gao was trying to do.
"We'll discuss some things in detail later. Let's deal with the matter at hand first!" Zhao Gao didn't answer Gu Mingzhou's question. Instead, he looked at Murong Fu.
"You want to interfere in the internal affairs of my Heavenly Sword Sect even with The Trap?" Murong Fu looked at Zhao Gao.
Although he'd already guessed this possibility when Zhao Gao had appeared, he still wanted to hear the answer from Zhao Gao.
"The internal affairs of the Heavenly Sword Sect? You really know how to joke." Zhao Gao was not affected by Murong Fu's words.
"You colluded with Xu Fengyu and attempted to harm the entire great world. How can you face your ancestors?" the smile on Zhao Gao's face suddenly disappeared, and he raised his voice.
"What? Colluding with Xu Fengyu?" Gu Mingzhou and Floating Jade Island Master could not help but feel an earthquake in their eyes.
It was simply a fantasy.
The enmity between Xu Fengyu and the Murong clan could not be resolved overnight.
Moreover, Xu Fengyu had led the underwater beast cultivators to launch a fierce attack on the Heavenly Sword Sect. This was evident.
Was the Heavenly Sword Sect going to fight with the underwater demon cultivators? How could Murong Fu be in contact with Xu Fengyu?
However, both the first elder and the fifth elder had known about this matter.
Because there was not a single ripple of emotion on the faces of these two.
"No wonder you dared to instigate a rebellion. You already know about that matter." Murong Fu's gloomy face suddenly revealed a smile.
"If you don't want people to know, then don't do it. As the Sect Master of the Heavenly Sword Sect, are you still not satisfied?" Zhao Gao sighed.
"Do you think you can understand what I've done?" Murong Fu laughed.
"The position of the Heavenly Sword Sect's Sect Master is nothing but a burden to me!" Murong Fu shouted.
"Why didn't you say that when you took the position of Sect Master?" The first elder pointed at Murong Fu and mocked.
"Don't say anymore!" The fifth elder walked in front of the first elder, trying to stop him from continuing.
"You don't have to stop him. I want to know what kind of person I am in your hearts!" At this time, Murong Fu opened his mouth and said, "Today, I will reveal your evil deeds!" the first elder pushed away the fifth elder's hand and walked towards Murong Fu.
As an ancient sect that had stood in the outside world for thousands of years, the successive sect masters were naturally not short of great talents who maintained the strength and immortality of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Murong Lin might not have been the greatest sect master in the history of the Heavenly Sword Sect, but he was definitely the most unique sect master.
It was mainly because Murong Lin didn't have a full house of children.
Murong Lin only had five sons, and one of them had died.
Perhaps it was because Murong Lin's death was too sudden, so there was no time to decide who would inherit the position of Sect Master.
The Heavenly Sword Sect had started a war for the position of sect master!
Murong Fu killed his two brothers and took the opportunity to gain power and become the new sect master!
"However, we didn't expect you would collude with our nemesis, the world cultivators, to kill all the living beings in the great world in order to get higher cultivation and more power!" as he spoke, the first elder suddenly raised his voice and pointed at Murong Fu, the sect master, and shouted angrily.
"Murong Fu, don't you have any sense of shame? Don't you have a conscience? Don't you feel guilty?" the fifth elder also questioned.
Gu Mingzhou was tall, and Floating Jade Island Master fell silent.
They didn't know what to say.
He never thought the revered Sect Master Murong Fu would actually use so many despicable means to compete for the position of sect master!
"A devil who betrays his ancestors for glory and is unscrupulous for profit! How can we not rebel against you?" the first elder looked at Murong Fu with tears in his eyes and roared ferociously.
"What a bummer. It's just an old matter, and you have the nerve to bring it up!" Murong Fu said with a smile.
"Murong Fu, you colluded with the world cultivators and plotted against the common people! You still don't know how to repent?" Zhao Gao saw Murong Fu's nonchalant expression and scolded him angrily.
"What crime have I committed? Let's not talk about your nonsense, so what if it's true?" Murong Fu said disdainfully.
"You're so stubborn!" Zhao Gao shook his head as he unsheathed the sword from his waist.
The thousands of cultivators behind Zhao Gao immediately pointed their weapons at Murong Fu, ready to attack at any moment!
"Follow me to kill the traitors and return peace to the great world!" Zhao Gao rushed towards Murong Fu.
"Kill!" thousands of cultivators shouted in anger and rushed forward.
"Do you really think I'm arguing with you? I was just stalling for time! Where are the holy guards of the Sword Sect?" Murong Fu suddenly burst out laughing.
Before he finished his words, countless figures suddenly rushed out from the back hall and instantly blocked Murong Fu.
Gu Mingzhou and the Floating Jade Island Master furrowed their brows.
The holy guards of the Sword Sect who had suddenly appeared were all cultivators at the peak of the mortal realm, and there were more than a hundred of them.
Among them, there was no lack of earth realm warriors. There were about ten of them, standing at the back of the crowd, protecting Murong Fu.
The Heavenly Sword Sect indeed had a deep foundation!
Murong Fu's eyes turned cold when he saw the holy guards. He looked at Zhao Gao and the cultivators who were charging at him and waved his right arm!
