1919 Shameless(Chapter preview)
Shall we go up and take a look? The answer was a definite yes! They've come all the way here, of course they had to take a look.
But how should they do that? Watch from the other side or participate in it?
"Anyway, we can hide our breath and take a closer look." Sima You Yue said.
The few of them were the strong among the strong, so it was a trivial matter to hide their breath. She said so, everyone condensed their breath, and then walked towards the fighting place.
What surprised them was that the terrain at the back went up all the way, and finally got out of the ground and came to a mountainous marshland.
On the peak of the mountain, two people were engaged in a heated battle. At the marsh at the foot of the mountain, there were two groups of people that were also facing each other. In the middle of the muddy terrain, a white flower was in full bloom.
The flower was the size of a large bowl, and the petals were thick and fleshy, similar to a Ganoderma Lucidum. However, it was made up of three layers both inside and outside, which resembles a lotus flower. The breeze carried along a faint floral fragrance.
"Ten thousand year old Snow Fungus!" Sima You Yue recognized the flower and said with some surprise: "I didn't expect to see such a treasure here."
"Is this precious?" Black Shadow asked.
"A saint medicine for healing." Huan knew more about these than Black Shadow, and this Snow Fungus was something he knew about.
Although Black Shadow does not know it's specific effects, it can be used as a healing medicine, which is enough to show its preciousness.
"It isn't easy for a Snow Fungus to survive as it is very attractive to spirit beasts. It's often eaten by spirit beasts before it grows up. So it is very rare to see ones more than two thousand years old. I didn't expect to see a ten thousand year old one here. It's really astounding!" Sima You Yue said with joy, showing that she also likes this Snow Fungus very much.
"There is a natural barrier here." Wu Lingyu looked up and continued, "It is this barrier that creates a good living environment for it."
No wonder these people have to come from underground, because they can't get through from above at all!
"Boom——"
The power of the strong impact flattened a mountain, and the ground also shook. After this move, the two that were fighting each fell on to a mountain.The younger man in white was more seriously injured, while the other man in black looked much more relaxed.
"Wei Xing, you went back on your words!" The white robed man clutched his chest, as fresh blood dyed the white clothes a garish scarlet, looking very embarrassed.
Wei Xing smiled condescendingly: "Have I promised anything?"
"Wei Xing, do you really want to grab Snow Fungus with us? What are you doing now?" A woman in red yelled from below, "You have received payment from our family and yet you want to grab Snow Fungus! Aren't you not afraid that lightning will strike you from the heavens?
"Our agreement is that I am responsible for clearing the obstacles on the road. You paid me for it, didn't I do it? Didn't I kill the underworld beasts along the way?" Wei Xing coldly snorted, "Did I not follow our agreement? Now that the Snow Fungus has been found, our agreement has ended. Whoever owns this Snow Fungus in the end is up to his own abilities!"
"Wei Xing, you mean villain? You wanted to use us to find the Snow Fungus from the beginning, right?" The woman in red exclaimed, "That's why you promised so simply! You know we need to use the Snow Fungus here to save my Patriarch, how can you do this!"
"Ha ha, why not?" Wei Xing looked at them indifferently, "Anyway, you are going to die here today. Based on our previous friendship, I will let you know how you're going to die. The Zheng Clan had already seeked me before you came to me."
"What did you say?!"
"Ha ha, I think you already understand that they paid me and asked me to agree to your request and the Snow Fungus will belong to me after it's done. In this way, I can get both the treasure and the payment from both sides!"
"You are shameless!"
"What about being shameless? If you have this strength, why do you need to find me? In this world, only the strong can make rules! Hahaha—I will tell you one more thing by the way. The Zheng Clan is already amassing people outside and all ready to give you the final blow. In a few days, there will be no more Hua Clan in the entire Western Verge Region!"
"What?!" The Hua Clan was stunned. The Zheng Clan hadn't been moving recently, so how could they avoid their eyes and ears and amass the people outside?
"You lied! Impossible! You lied to us!" The woman in red yelled, trying to rush up, but was caught by the people around her.
"What good do I have to lie to you? The Zheng Clan has already promised that as long as your Hua Clan is annexed, one third of the property will be distributed to us. My Wei Clan just needs to do nothing, as long as we do not help you, we can get a share of the benefits."
"Wei Xing! The Wei Clan and the Hua Clan have always helped and protected each other. You betrayed the promises left by your Ancestor, betrayed us! The Zheng Clan can promise you benefits now, and they can promise others benefits against you in the future!" The white robed man saw Wei Xing and his expression was very resentful.
"At that time, be it them who deal with us, or the other way round, there's no need for your Hua Clan to worry about it. Now, it's time to end this all. Seeing that you are all my nieces and grandchildren, I will let you have an easier death." Wei Xing waved his hand, and several clansmen below immediately attacked the woman in red and the others.
The white robed man saw his clan being attacked, but couldn't go down to rescue them. He was anxious, his body was full of blood, and he vomited another mouthful of blood. He wiped the blood from his lips, and said: "No wonder you asked me who would come with me before, saying that we should bring fewer people long. I thought you were worried that more people would drag us down. So you just asked about our strength and getting those who are stronger than us come!"
"Hua Yu, you are smart and talented, but you shouldn't live! If you really grow up in the future, Western Verge Region will be dominated by your Hua Clan! I can't keep such a genius like you!"
Wei Xing said, condensing spirit power, ready to give him the final blow, and solve this trouble forever.
Hua Yu knew his plan by seeing his moves, and knew that he couldn't reach him, but he didn't wait to die directly, but he also condensed all his spirit power to prepare for his move.
"Go to hell!"
Wei Xing's attack broke his defense directly, and the light from the impact made everyone unable to open their eyes.
"Hua Yu!"
"Hua Yu!"
The people fighting below stopped seeing this scene. People from the Hua Clan called out to him desperately. Everyone knows that if Wei Xing continues with this, he will survive for sure.
They wanted to close their eyes and not watch this scene, but their eyes did not obey, they opened wide, watching the light dissipate.
"Cough -" The cough made everyone's nerves burst. The light dissipated, and the white robes were still billowing in the wind on the top of the mountain.
"Alive, still alive..."
