Chapter 1590: Chapter 1590: Follow the Arrangements of the Second Young Master!
Zhang Xuan was furious, but he found himself helpless against the other party, and asked Beiting Huang, “Second brother, what should we do? Are we really not going anymore?”
Beiting Huang’s eyes slowly filled with a dangerous look as she gazed into the other’s. This time she did not deny Zhang Xuan the right to call her second brother; instead, she turned to ask Zhang Xi, “What do you need the Fire Flower for?”
Zhang Xi exchanged a glance with Zhang Xuan before answering somewhat embarrassedly, “My father, he is still only at the Great Lord Peak and has yet to enter the Supreme Realm. We want to get the Fire Flower and give it to him.”
Beiting Huang nodded and surveyed the twenty guards following behind them. It seemed that the Wuling Sect’s weakness was not in the overall strength of the sect, but because the sect master was too weak.
In the entire Rubis World, when the two major powers fought, the outcome was often decided not by the subordinate teams, but by the clash between the higher echelons. If in the future, Beiting Huang faced the Spirit God Clan, even if the Iron Blood team was immensely strong, if Beiting Huang could not kill the Emperor of the Spirit God Clan, or even that individual from the Demon Spirit Peak, then it would still be ineffective.
Of course, the Iron Blood team could not be weak either. Otherwise, they would not be able to restrain the Spirit God Clan’s forces for Beiting Huang. If the enemy were to gang up and attack, no matter how strong Beiting Huang was, she would be defeated.
After all, even ants can bite an elephant to death.
“I am an alchemist. If you can help me get the Fire Flower, I promise to give you a Flame Pill!” Seeing that the members of the Wuling Sect’s eyes lit up at this offer, Beiting Huang knew she had a chance and continued, “As you have just seen, the other Four Great Sects have formed an alliance regardless of their motives. As a lone force, the Wuling Sect certainly cannot stand against them.”
This was something that Beiting Huang did not need to say, as they were already well aware of it.
“If you want to gain something, help me get the Fire Flower, and from now on, you will follow my command. If you can do that, we will cooperate. If you cannot, then let’s part ways right now!” Beiting Huang said decisively.
Zhang Xi would never agree to part ways; in fact, he wished for the Wuling Sect to become even more entangled with Beiting Huang. Immediately, he stepped forward, and without waiting for Beiting Huang to say anything else, he pointed at Beiting Huang and said to his twenty subordinates, “Do you recognize him? Doesn’t he look very similar to the Young Sect Master? Do you know? He is the Second Young Master, who disappeared at the gate years ago. From now on, every one of you must listen to the Second Young Master’s command!”
“What?”
Almost everyone was stunned. In the Wuling Sect, there was no one who did not know that the Second Young Master and the Young Sect Master were twins, and that the Second Young Master had been kidnapped. For many years, the sect master’s wife had been bedridden, and even the sect master himself had been plagued by a mental demon, which had stalled any progress in his cultivation.
Now that they heard the Second Young Master had returned, almost everyone was ecstatic. Not a single person doubted Zhang Xi’s words; after all, Zhang Xi was the Young Sect Master. Would he need an outsider to pretend to be the Second Young Master, who might even compete with him for the position of Young Sect Master someday?
“Subordinates, we pay our respects to the Second Young Master!” The twenty men bowed to Beiting Huang at the gates of Huayang City.
Beiting Huang also did not decline. Since she was to command these men, taking on the identity of someone from the Wuling Sect was most appropriate. She gestured with a wave of her hand, “Then let’s set off!”
This scene at the gates of Huayang City quickly spread with the speed of the wind throughout Huayang Mountain. Ouyang Mo and the others found it unbelievable when they heard the news, “The Wuling Sect’s Second Young Master, how is that possible? Are you sure you heard it correctly?”
