Whoosh~
One white and one black figure landed in a valley, the Exalted Double Dragons.
Looking at the distant wooden house, Exalted Hei Ran looked bleak, âA report said Luo Allianceâs young miss made contact with Baili Jingwei here.â
âThe source is good so it must be true.â
Exalted Bai Mei nodded, âWeâve taken harsh actions but itâs still a shame that the Luo Alliance would take such a path. For Luo Yunhai, theyâd even side with Baili Jingwei and betray the western lands!â
âRegardless, thereâs no tolerance for betrayal. Letâs see what they have to say when theyâre caught red-handed!â
Exalted Hei Ran stared in front.
The door to the house opened, with Luo Yunchang peeking her head out and looking around. She made a sign to make a hole for her to slip through, followed by Zhuge Changfeng and the rest. They made sure to close the seal back.
Exalted Hei Ranâs words dripped with hatred, âThey must have something to hide for even have a barrier to be in place. Humph, the house is beyond suspicious. The central areaâs spy must be inside!â
âI agree. Letâs go and catch him!â Exalted Bai Mei shot forth with Exalted Hei Ran behind.
Whoosh~
The two blocked Luo Yunchangâs group as they left, startling them.
This only worked to cement their doubts.
Luo Yunchang held a bright smile, âExalted, you gave us a shock appearing out of nowhere, ha-ha-haâ¦â
âOf course youâd never think weâd come, since you didnât want your evil plan to come to light.â Exalted Hei Ran scorned.
Luo Yunchangâs eyes rolled around in confusion, âWhy does Sir Exalted mean? I donât understand.â
âThen let me make it perfectly clear!â
Exalted Bai Mei spoke sternly, âYour brother is in the hands of the enemy so you wanted to make a deal with them and sell out western lands for Luo Yunhaiâs life. Am I right so far? This house must have central areaâs spy!â
Luo Yunchangâs mouth shook, but then she snapped, raving like a banshee from hell, âYeah, I want Yunhai back alive no matter the price, even your precious western lands. Can you blame me? My brother had toiled hard for western lands, loyal and honorable. Now that a crime was pinned on him, you didnât do crap, letting the enemy take him. Now you show up accusing me of selling out western lands? You sold out my brother first!â
âLuo Yunchang, youâre narrow-minded! The Central area framed Luo Yunhai, not us. For the good of western lands, he honorably gave his life. And what do you do? You disgrace his noble sacrifice. Would he be happy to be rescued like this?â
âYou have no brother, so how can you tell he wonât be glad to be back? And another thing, his honor and decency donât mean he has to kill himself for some fools like yourselves. Stop trying to tie him down with honor and righteousness. The Luo clanâs noble and righteous character is within our heart and not medals on our chests. When honor becomes our clanâs shackle, our unjust crime, that will be the day we will switch tactics, laying waste to everything in sight. I wonât give a ratâs ass about the western landsâ people. Anything to get my brother back! You can survive but we canât?â
Luo Yunchang layed out all the pain and sorrow in her heart.
Exalted Bai Mei held up his hand in fury, âIâm not here to waste words on some petty woman. I have come to catch the central area spy and you all will be coming to Double Dragon Manor as well to show all of western lands the truth!â
Exalted Bai Mei went to the door and shouted, âListen up, whoever you are, come out at once or Iâll make you come out, in pain!â
âHoh, western landsâ Exalted are so fiesty. Anyone can take the throne with no real contender, I see. You two have to work together to fight a Sword King, but are worth nothing in the central area. While in western lands, you strut like kings. Western lands is a lost cause, ha-ha-haâ¦â
Ding~
The sounds of zither were heard as a harsh words came out.
The Exaltedâs heart sank, turning grave, âW-who are you?â
The zither became louder and the wooden house exploded, with sword energy shooting at the two.
The two worked as one against such onslaught, putting all their power in front to resist. But more swords remained, slicing forward and straight into the heavens, making them rumble.
âSeven Notes Obscure Sword!â
The two cried out, âZither Sword King. Liu Mubai?â
The music became mellow as Liu Mubai smiled, playing the zither. But his smile held disdain.
âYou flatter me. What happened to your earlier demands? Didnât you ask me to come out or Iâll know pain? Ha-ha-ha, well here I am. How will you make me suffer, I wonder?â
The two shook in silence.
The spy they were after turned out to be a damn Sword King! Fighting toghether would only end up in a draw, unable to take him down.
âLuo Yunchang, you have some nerve to bring a Sword King into the western lands. Do you not realize the risk?â Exalted Bai Mei glared, âWhat have you done?â
Luo Yunchangâs rose an eyebrow, sneering.
Zither Sword King smiled, âAs Sword King, all acts have heavy implications. I have came here not to squabble, but for you two. Be nice and die, ha-ha-haâ¦â
âJust you?â The two scoffed as they showed all they had and more.
Zither Sword King said, âOh, not just me, with the Luo clanâs help as well. Since I came in, others followed, ha-ha-ha. To be frank, I brought a million hardened soldiers deep into your home to raid Double Dragon Manor. Once it falls, the western lands are headless, easy pickings for the ten million army outside as we coordinate to take down western lands. This is Prime Minister Bailiâs plan to immobilize the head. How long do you think it will take? A week? Maybe less?â
âWhat?!â
Exalted Double Dragons cried out in shock, having the time to curse Luo Yunchang, âYou dumb broad! You doomed us all!â
The Exalted ran for the Double Dragon Manor, hoping to preserve Double Dragon Manorâs strength before the plan succeeded and assemble the western lands to defend.
Zither Sword King watched them go, just as a raging golden fires blocked their path.
[Another Sword King?]
The twoâs hearts sank, finding before them someone familiar, âYou?â
âUltimate Clarity Sectâs Ye Lin, at your service!â
His eyes shone with golden flickers as Ye Lin exploded with terrible power of Zither Sword Kingâs level, âExalted, itâs been a while. If you were wondering, I was the one who leaked information about the Luo clan having secret talks here.â
The Exalted glance at Zither Sword King behind and at Ye Lin in front, knowing they were set up and fear crept in.
âYou drew us out here to hold us and let Baili Jingwei succeed!â
âThatâs Prime Minister Bailiâs plan!â Zither Sword King snickered.
The Exalted were in despair, turning to Ye Lin in confusion, âYouâve been gone for a hundred years. How did you end up helping Sword Star Empire again?â
âExalted, Iâve never done that.â
âWhy stop us thenâ¦â
âItâs the will of Devil Palace Lord!â
Ye Lin grinned, âIâll come clean. I am one of Devil Palaceâs three emissaries, the Sun Devil Emissary. And this is Devil Palaceâs action, independent of Baili Jingwei!â
The Exalted shuddered, their eyes dazed with doubts.
[Blast it, Baili Jingwei wasnât enough, now we have Devil Palace stepping in. The largest underground force and the largest known force act at once, and for what exactly?]
