Chapter 196 A Deadly Foe
Looking at Huangfu Gang’s eager eyes, Lyu Liang almost clinked his cup with him. Finally, he just lifted his cup, but did not take a sip. “I don’t know how much you know about me. I do hate the Anye Clan, but I’m afraid that I can’t just annihilate the entire clan! If this is the cooperation you want, I’m afraid...”
“Please don’t be hasty in making any decision. You can judge for yourself, after probing Anye Tianlong’s sea of consciousness!” Huangfu Gang was calm. He put down the cup and sat back slowly, with a confident smile on his face.
“If so, I’ll go back and do that now. Tomorrow morning, I’ll tell you my decision. Besides, there seems to be something unpleasant between you and brother Feng Xiu. If we work with each other, I hope that we can keep it as a secret.” Lyu Liang was fond of the Feng family, while everyone knew that Feng Xiu was hostile toward Huangfu Gang. Lyu Liang didn’t want to have any misunderstandings with the Feng family, because he was an ally of Huangfu Gang.
Seeing that Lyu Liang was about to leave, Huangfu Gang rose to see him off. He smiled softly and said, “Don’t worry. I don’t care about Feng Xiu at all, and I know about the relationship between the Xuanli family and the Feng family. I promise I’ll keep it a secret.”
Lyu Liang nodded and left the hall. A moment later, he disappeared in the distance.
At the same time, a thick cloud of fog appeared beside Huangfu Gang and said, in an obscure voice, “Childe, do you really want to team up with this guy?”
Huangfu Gang nodded and said, “Yes! As long as I can save my mom, why not team up with him?! I know that you’re not happy about that. But just take it easy, because Lyu Liang and I will only be temporary allies. There’s a world between us, so finally, we can only be enemies, instead of friends!”
“Ah? Then why are you so excited?” Huangfu Gang had an expectant look on his face, which confused Fog Devil greatly.
Huangfu Gang looked up at the sky and said softly, “Do you know? Friends are of no use in cultivating the Fight Devine Body! I expect this man to be a mere stepping-stone, to help me reach the top of the universe! ”
....................................
When Lyu Liang went back, he couldn’t wait to probe the fog. Of course, he didn’t forget to tell this good news to Xuanli Feiwu, who naturally cheered, when he found out.
After that, Lyu Liang settled down, stuck one finger into the fog, and started to search the soul.
It lasted for half an hour, during which, Lyu Liang had mixed expressions on his face. In other words, he was filled with all kinds of negative emotions, ranging from fury, shock, and sorrow. He had never expected that the Anye family, who was ranked the first in the Devil Realm, were such a combination of brutish scums!
As the family’s second influential figure, Anye Tianlong had gathered a large amount of information. As Lyu Liang searched the soul, those foul deeds surfaced, one after another.
Among them, Lyu Liang also learned about the situation about Huangfu Gang’s mother, who had the Spirit-empty Body. No wonder Huangfu Gang wanted to destroy the entire clan. If Lyu Liang faced the same situation, he might also have the same thoughts!
His poor mother was treated as a furnace for the family leader and his son. What was worse, apart from them, all the core disciples above the Void Return level, used her Spirit-empty Body, to improve their cultivation, as well. As for this part of memory, Lyu Liang was so furious, that he could not continue watching it.
As for other evil deeds, which the Anye Clan had done, it was too numerous to be listed. If time could return to when Huangfu Gang first made that proposal, Lyu Liang would undoubtedly agree, without any hesitation!
After another half an hour, Lyu Liang let out a deep sigh. As he opened his eyes filled with mixed emotions, the fog also disappeared.
During this one hour, most of the memories were about the villainy of the Anye Clan. As for the other incidents with the Xuanli Clan that occurred 10 thousand years ago, it was not mentioned at all. Maybe it was the missing part of the sea of consciousness, or perhaps Anye Tianlong had not taken part in that event at all.
But one thing that caught Lyu Liang’s great attention, was the organization, which the hideous female was a member of.
From the sea of consciousness, Lyu Liang learned that it was a mysterious power called “Hell Organization.” It was located in a weird space, where the cultivators had either formidable strength or powerful magic treasures.
The female’s Taoism Title was “Mingxue,” and she was the primary point of contact for the Anye Clan. She looked extremely ugly, and if Lyu Liang did not see her figure or hear her voice, he would think that she didn’t belong to any of the five clans...
The task Mingxue assigned to the Anye Clan was to find two scrolls! The scroll titles were Great Manual of Chaos and Great Manual of Void.
What surprised Lyu Liang most was that, among the people from the Hell Organization, Zhang Ran also seemed to be there!
Although the man called “Chiliu” had a different hairstyle and a weary face, the robe of the Sword Character Immortal Palace, and his clear facial features, suggested that he was likely to be one of the trios of the back mountain!
He appeared only once in Anye Tianlong’s memory, but his status was undoubtedly very high, because Mingxue also showed great respect to him. Besides, he was the one who took the lead, in this meeting.
Through the conversation among those people, Lyu Liang was more convinced than ever that he was indeed Zhang Ran!
Mingxue, “Oh! Milord Chiliu, it has been a long time since you left! Is there any progress on Great Manual of Heavenly Enchantment?”
Chiliu, “Yes. Once the time is ripe, I will take action. Today, I am here for the Dark Night Family.”
Anye Tianlong, “Milord Saint God! My father is not here. I can do things on behalf of him!”
Chiliu, “Humph, listen carefully! I don’t care about the war against the Chaotic World at all. They can go to the Wufang Territory, but they cannot touch the foundation of the Sword Character Immortal Palace! Tell what I said to those old guys of the Nether Big World. If anything unexpected happens, I’ll kill you at once!”
After that, Chiliu never appeared again. Lyu Liang could not settle down at all.
Wasn’t Great Manual of Heavenly Enchantment the prime treasure of the Xuan Nyu Sect? It was a supreme Mind Mantra, which was not easily cultivated by anyone. Even such a powerful figure as Xuan Nyu Fairy, had not reached its Top.
According to Lyu Liang’s guess, Chiliu was Zhang Ran. Although he had a distinct temperament, his appearance and his words indicated his identity!
After a moment, Lyu Liang finally recovered. Shaking his head hard, he whispered to himself, “Zhang Ran, which one is the real you? If we meet again, can we still drink and chat together? How will you explain what you did to Xinyun...”
Lyu Liang heaved a deep sigh and rubbed his numb head. He hadn’t thought of sleeping all these years, but now, he just wanted to go to bed, immediately.
....................................
The next morning, Lyu Liang was woken up by Li Wuyi! Seeing his second brother, Lyu Liang was surprised and asked him if anything had happened.
According to Li Wuyi, people from the branch of the Heavenly Alliance were here today, just to watch the wushu test, in the Chaotic World!
There was only one guest, who was merely at the Late-stage of Almighty Immortal, and yet had a very high status!
Li Wuyi’s puppet troop, and the Gold Immortal Wing of the Tai Chi Sect, which was ranked the first among the five troops, had all been instructed to protect this distinguished guest!
In theory, a powerful figure from the Heavenly Alliance could maintain higher cultivation than that of the cultivators in the Mortal World, through some rare magic treasures. But still, this guest had the cultivation only at the Late-stage of Almighty Immortal...
When Lyu Liang learned this guest’s name, his eyes opened wide immediately, and he was suddenly very angry.
That was because this guest’s name was “Fairy Purple Phoenix”!
This one came from the Heavenly Alliance of the Pangu Origin World, and had such a name; it could not be anyone else, except for the “b*tch”, as Zhu Yu called her.
Fairy Purple Phoenix was the daughter of God Ancestor Night Dragon, and she had been promoted as an Inspector of the Heavenly Alliance. To put it bluntly, she went about everywhere, and whenever she saw something unpleasant, she would snitch about it, when she returned.
“Oh yes, I have to tell you something now, and that’s why I came here so early. This b*tch asked about you immediately. I’d say that she is longing for love!” Having half of the responsibility as the leader of the Wanxiang Sect for all these years, Li Wuyi had become much more civilized, under the influence of Chishui Fairy. However, his loose tongue would accompany him for his entire life.
Hearing what he had said, Lyu Liang smiled a wry smile. Fairy Purple Phoenix was such a disgusting female, that even he could not stand her. If she had not been the daughter of a God Ancestor, Lyu Liang would have searched her soul and killed her, for Zhu Yu.
When Li Wuyi was still chatting with Lyu Liang, the door was kicked open. When the two were stunned, Liu Jiawen rushed in, grasped Lyu Liang’s robe, and said furiously, “Let me tell you! If you still want to be my friend, never be taken in by that b*tch Purple Phoenix, if she wants to get close to you! Or, humph, not only I, but sister Jing and sister Tang, will teach you a lesson!”
Lyu Liang felt a great headache coming on. He hastily expressed his loyalty, and nearly made a life-bonded vow.
“Humph! I dare you. I’m just here to warn you.” “Oh yes, sister Jing asked us to arrive earlier before the wushu test, because that b*tch wants to make a speech.” Liu Jiawen did not forget to inform him about this piece of news, before she left.
“Third brother, when this b*tch goes back, why don’t we...” Li Wuyi slid his hand across his neck, with a serious look on his face. After all, that year, when they saw what Zhu Yu’s squad experienced together, he was the most emotional among them.
With this second brother, who had a one-track mind, Lyu Liang could only put aside his anger, and try to persuade him to give up this impractical idea.
But Lyu Liang also thought that, if Zhu Yu had been here, he might have killed Fairy Purple Phoenix. Thinking about that, he was concerned about Zhu Yu. It had been a long time since Zhu Yu entered the remains in the Breeze Valley, but Lyu Liang had not heard from him at all. “Did he run into some trouble that even he could not deal with?”
Since everyone received the message, they all gathered there, before nine o’clock.
When Lyu Liang saw Huangfu Gang, the latter also looked at his way. Huangfu Gang was smiling, waiting for Lyu Liang’s answer.
This time, Lyu Liang nodded firmly without any hesitation, and Huangfu Gang also nodded, with a smile. Thus, the relationship between the allies was confirmed!
After a moment, six figures gradually appeared on the platform. Except for the five judges, the last one was naturally Fairy Purple Phoenix, that infamous female.
She wore a lavender, chiffon dress and had crescent shaped eyebrows, enchanting eyes, fair skin, and a sexy figure. As such, she was indeed a stunner, but she was somehow coquettish. At least that was how Lyu Liang felt about her.
Except for Lyu Liang and his companions, many male cultivators under the platform were about to drool. Only Huangfu Gang was smiling, and Feng Xiu had a poker face, as they both ignored this stunner directly.
Lyu Liang lowered his head and tried to hide. But still, the thing that he worried about most, happened.
Fairy Purple Phoenix’s flirtatious voice sounded, “This white-robed peer, are you that renowned Childe Lyu? I’ve heard about you for a long time, and it’s my good fortune to meet you today! Could you please come up here? I have a gift for you, and I hope that you will win the test, in the end!”
