Invincible Divine Sword Chapter 2010: The Taihang Vein Is Destroyed
Lin Yi boasted with confidence that he had contributed to the Three Pure Saint Sect, enough to offset death!
Yang Xiaotian asked coldly, "You’ve contributed to the Three Pure Saint Sect? What contributions? Speak up so everyone can hear."
Lin Yi was about to say what he had done for the Three Pure Saint Sect over the years, but the words stopped at the tip of his tongue. Looking back, it seemed he really hadn’t made any significant contributions.
If anything could be considered a contribution, it was that he had refurbished his and the many elders’ cave mansions, enhancing the spiritual energy within them, benefiting their cultivation.
But, could this really be considered a contribution?
If there were contributions, it was the deep cooperation he established between the Three Pure Saint Sect and Yin Ghost Mountain, and the Ancestor Clan through his efforts.
However, this deep cooperation was achieved by trading away the interests of the Three Pure Saint Sect.
For instance, he gave the mineral rights of the Taixing Mountains to Yin Ghost Mountain.
And he gave Hidden Dragon Lake to the Young Clan Leader of the Ancestor Clan.
Seeing Lin Yi in a daze and unable to clarify, Yang Xiaotian swung his Chaos Demon Sword, and Lin Yi’s head flew into the air, landing on the ground.
As for Lin Yi’s disciple Li Zhi, Yang Xiaotian did not execute him publicly but had him pinched to death in the dark cell.
Yang Xiaotian, having beheaded Lin Yi, glanced at the disciples of the Three Pure Saint Sect present: "Anyone daring to harm the Three Pure Saint Sect, I will punish according to the sect rules!"
"No exceptions!"
The elders and the disciples of Lin Yi’s faction, under Yang Xiaotian’s gaze, were all trembling with fear.
"I know some of you, like Lin Yi, have done many things over the years to damage the interests of the Three Pure Saint Sect, embezzling a lot of sect wealth." Yang Xiaotian continued, "If you return all these within a day, I may show leniency!"
"Otherwise, a day later, if caught again, you will face even harsher punishment!"
Yang Xiaotian’s words echoed above the Three Pure Holy Veins.
He did not immediately force everyone to hand over their gains but gave them a day to consider.
Subsequently, Yang Xiaotian mentioned the Taixing Mountains matter and instructed Chen Long to gather the army to accompany him there tomorrow.
Chen Long was greatly invigorated, respectfully obeying.
The night was peaceful.
Annihilating Heaven Demon, Blood Demon Old Monster, and others reported the movements of Yin Ghost Mountain within Yang Xiaotian’s palace.
The Mountain Master of Yin Ghost Mountain activated the Evil Leader Order, gathering army leaders from all the evil sects of the Ancestor Continent at Yin Ghost Mountain, making such a commotion that it could not escape the notice of Annihilating Heaven Demon and others.
Learning that the Mountain Master of Yin Ghost Mountain had activated the Evil Leader Order, Yang Xiaotian wasn’t too surprised.
Since the Mountain Master of Yin Ghost Mountain had activated the Evil Leader Order, he would activate the Myriad Demon Holy Order, summoning millions of demon sect disciples from the Ancestor Continent.
Immediately, Yang Xiaotian activated the Myriad Demon Holy Order, gathering demon sect leaders to bring their armies here.
"Holy Master, we have news about the Red Dragon Mad Demon," Annihilating Heaven Demon said to Yang Xiaotian. "We found out that years ago, the Red Dragon Mad Demon appeared in Sea City."
"Sea City!" Yang Xiaotian was taken aback.
Sea City is within the Ancestor Clan’s territory.
It is also one of the most important ancient cities of the Ancestor Clan.
"And then?" Yang Xiaotian asked.
"Then, the Red Dragon Mad Demon disappeared," Annihilating Heaven Demon shook his head, saying, "He hasn’t appeared since."
In other words, the Red Dragon Mad Demon disappeared in Sea City.
Yang Xiaotian pondered, "Continue the investigation, report any information about the Red Dragon Mad Demon to me."
Annihilating Heaven Demon respectfully agreed.
The next day, Chen Long came to report to Yang Xiaotian, saying he had summoned the army of the Three Pure Saint Sect according to orders, and meanwhile, over thirty elders had confessed their crimes and returned their illegal gains.
Other disciples of Lin Yi’s faction also returned their illegal gains.
The Treasure Vault is now much fuller.
Yang Xiaotian nodded.
Moments later, he, along with Annihilating Heaven Demon, Chen Long, and others, led the army of the Three Pure Saint Sect to the Taixing Mountains.
Upon reaching the Taixing Mountains, they encountered no resistance from Yin Ghost Mountain disciples, but when Yang Xiaotian and others arrived at the mineral area of the Taixing Mountains, they found it had been blasted into ruins!
All the mines had turned into rubble.
Seeing all the mines in the mineral area reduced to rubble, Chen Long and the disciples of the Three Pure Saint Sect were enraged.
Clearly, Yin Ghost Mountain preferred to destroy all of Taixing Mountain’s mines rather than leave them for the Three Pure Saint Sect.
"The people of Yin Ghost Mountain are too excessive!" An elder of the Three Pure Saint Sect angrily said, "Back then, Lin Yi gave Yin Ghost Mountain ten thousand years of mining rights in the Taixing Mountains, only ten thousand years of mining rights, not ownership rights. On what grounds do they destroy our mines!"
The elders all angrily voiced their grievances.
"Holy Master, shall we now go to Yin Ghost Mountain?" Annihilating Heaven Demon asked, full of murderous intent.
"First, let’s head to Hidden Dragon Lake," Yang Xiaotian said coldly, "Let the Myriad Demon City army hurry over at full speed!"
He wanted to wait until the Myriad Demon City army and the demon sect armies arrived first.
Thus, Yang Xiaotian had the members of the Three Pure Saint Sect clear the Taixing Mountains while he and Annihilating Heaven Demon and others headed to Hidden Dragon Lake.
Hidden Dragon Lake wasn’t far from the Taixing Mountains, and Yang Xiaotian and others could arrive in three to four hours at the most.
Just as Yang Xiaotian and the group were heading to Hidden Dragon Lake, the Saint Heir of the Ancestor Clan and Elder Nie Heng, along with others, were recuperating within the lake.
A master of the Ancestor Clan came in to report the situation at the Taixing Mountains to the Saint Heir and Nie Heng.
Hearing that Yang Xiaotian intended to reclaim the Taixing Mountains from Yin Ghost Mountain, Nie Heng and the others frowned.
"Judging by Yang Xiaotian’s way of doing things, he will likely reclaim Hidden Dragon Lake next!" Nie Heng said with concern.
The Saint Heir of the Ancestor Clan, upon hearing this, immediately replied in anger, "He dares!"
After taking over Hidden Dragon Lake, he had devoted significant effort into transforming it, treating Hidden Dragon Lake as his private property, his most beloved palace.
Thinking of Yang Xiaotian actually reclaiming Hidden Dragon Lake, he was enraged and wanted to fight Yang Xiaotian to the death.
Nie Heng and the others remained silent, knowing others might not dare, but Yang Xiaotian would certainly dare to reclaim Hidden Dragon Lake.
"And now?" Nie Heng inquired of the master who came in to report.
The master quickly said, "Yang Xiaotian’s group has arrived at the Taixing Mountains, but when they arrived, the disciples of Yin Ghost Mountain had already destroyed all of Taixing Mountain. It’s now a wasteland!"
The Saint Heir of the Ancestor Clan heard this and clapped his hands with a laugh, "Destroyed well! Destroyed satisfyingly!" and then said with hatred, "If Yang Xiaotian dares to reclaim Hidden Dragon Lake, I will destroy it just like Yin Ghost Mountain did!"
He had already decided that even if it meant turning Hidden Dragon Lake into ruins, he would not leave it to Yang Xiaotian.
"It’s better to prepare ourselves early." Nie Heng still felt uneasy, saying.
