Zong Zhen Liang and Lan Ruo's already ugly expressions sank again. Their status in the Imperial Hall of Worship of the Thunderflame Dynasty was extraordinary. Anyone who saw them would have to be polite.
Even Lei Chengjun in the past was like this!
It had been a long time since someone dared to talk to them like this!
The golden-robed Zong Zhen Liang sneered, "You must be Liu Xingzhi. What a powerful official!"
"Black Flame Heaven Sovereign wouldn't dare to talk like this, you don't know the immensity of heaven and earth." Lan Ruo was a feminine looking man with a neutral voice.
Leng Shiqi didn't hold back at all, "I was ordered to kill the demons, all the plans have been arranged. It was all because of your reckless actions that the plan failed.
Ruining the Thunder Flame Dynasty's plan, ruining His Majesty's plan, even you can't bear the consequences! "
"What nonsense are you spouting?!"
Zong Zhen Liang said angrily, "We were just trying to find out the truth of the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range, but in your mouth, it became a reckless action. You really don't know anything. How can you sit in the position of one of the four chiefs?"
Leng Shiqi suddenly stood up with an imposing manner. "Impudent!
I am one of the four Great Stewards personally appointed by the late Emperor. You're questioning the late Emperor, how dare you disrespect him! "
Zong Zhen Liang paused. He didn't expect to be accused like this. He was about to retort when the old man stood in front of Leng Shiqi and said, "Zong Zhen Liang, do you really have to go this far? Admit your stupidity, we'll think of another way.
There's no point in arguing here. "
Zong Zhen Liang didn't expect the old man to speak up for Leng Shiqi. Before, no matter how powerful Leng Shiqi was, he was only a young man in the unity of heaven realm. But now, with the old man's support, the weight was completely different.
"Well said."
Suddenly, a strange voice came from outside, and a man in light armor descended from the sky.
"With us four Sky Origin Realm cultivators here, we could've killed the demons with a little preparation. But because of you two, we missed the opportunity."
They recognized him as soon as he showed up. He was the commander of the Red Thunder Army, a Sky Origin Stage cultivator, Gu Hetong!
What surprised Zong Zhenliang even more was that Gu Hetong was also on Leng Shiqi's side.
Now, not only were he and Lan Ruo in the wrong, but they also didn't have the upper hand in the situation. They could only pinch their noses and endure.
At this moment, Lan Ruo stepped forward and said, "Enough. At the end of the day, we all wanted to solve the big problem of the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range as soon as possible. However, we didn't expect to be ambushed not long after we entered the mountain range. Brother Zong and I determined that there is an extremely secretive and complicated formation in the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range.
The top priority right now is to come up with a countermeasure. The Demonic Beasts are still wreaking havoc. If we start to panic, it will only cause more innocent people to die tragically in the mouths of the Demonic Beasts. "
His words immediately surprised everyone in the hall. The Demonic Miasma Mountain Range was filled with Demonic Beasts, but they had never heard of Demonic Beasts being able to set up arrays.
Everyone felt that there was a mastermind behind this matter. The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became heavy, and the conflict between Leng Shiqi and Zong Zhenliang was also shifted.
Leng Shiqi didn't want internal strife, but as the leader of this great mission, he had to support Zong Zhenliang and Lan Ruo. Otherwise, he didn't know what would happen in the future.
Leng Shiqi didn't expect Gu Hetong to appear and speak up for him. The Red Thunder Army would take at least two days to arrive, so Gu Hetong must have come early.
However, the old man said, "Brother, this Gu Hetong is also a member of the Elite Hall. His seniority is even higher than mine."
Hearing this, Leng Shiqi understood. At the same time, the powerful impression of the Elite Hall was also imprinted in his heart!
So far, he had only seen two members of the Elite Hall. One was a superior of the Imperial Hall of Worship, and the other was the commander of the Red Thunder Army. It could be seen that those who could join the Elite Hall were all extraordinary in status and strength.
Leng Shiqi signaled, and immediately, someone brought chairs for the several Tianyuan Stage cultivators to sit on the high seats. He said, "Since it has already happened, it's useless to investigate further. Besides, you two have just fought with the big monsters, so you must know their strength and fighting style better.
As the saying goes, know thyself and know thy enemy, and you will never be defeated. Can you tell us more about it? "
Zong Zhenliang sat on the seat with a gloomy face, and didn't mean to speak.
Lan Ruo thought for a moment, then she could only say, "The two seventh-rank big monsters are the Demon Sable and the Heavenly Winged Tiger.
The Demon Sable is very insidious. It never fights with us directly. Its Demon Qi is very strange. It is not only very corrosive, but also can disturb part of the Qi of Heaven and Earth!
Brother Zong and I were ambushed by the Demon Qi, and could only use about eighty percent of our strength.
Also, the Heavenly Winged Tiger was very agile, and could communicate with the power of the stars and moon. Under the cover of the Demon Qi, it was impossible to guard against!
I'm ashamed, Brother Zong and I were at a disadvantage from the beginning. In the end, we had to break through the Demon Qi to get out of the battlefield. "
Zong Zhenliang, who didn't want to speak, added, "There are two other suspicious points.
First, the Demon Qi of the two seventh-rank big monsters is very thick. It doesn't seem like they just advanced. It seems like they have at least hundreds of years of power.
Secondly, there are traces of a formation in the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range. Although the formation was deliberately hidden, Lan Ruo and I are both formation masters, so we can sense it.
Otherwise, we wouldn't have been ambushed by them. "
After the two finished speaking, the meeting hall fell into silence.
From the current information, the Demon Sable and the Heavenly Winged Tiger's strength far exceeded everyone's expectations.
More importantly, since there was a formation hidden in the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range, it meant that there was a mysterious spirit cultivator hiding in there!
This meant that the beast tide outbreak in the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range was man-made!
Humans were always more difficult to deal with than beasts!
Also, if there was someone who could secretly control two seventh-rank big monsters, then this person had to be at least in the Sky Yuan Stage. It seemed like the current battle strength was not enough.
Leng Shiqi frowned. He had only been in the Demon Suppressing City for less than an hour, but things were getting more and more unexpected.
After a while, he stood up and said, "City Lord Qi, General Gu, and all the experts, the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range is far more dangerous than we thought.
What's more terrifying is the mysterious power behind it. I am not talented, but I need to guard the Demon Suppressing City. And I, will personally go to the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range! "
When he said this, it attracted all kinds of strange gazes.
Some did not believe him, some were suspicious, some were disdainful, and some thought he was crazy.
Including the old man, there were already three Sky Yuan Stage cultivators who were defeated. Leng Shiqi, who was in the Unity of Heaven and Man Stage, still wanted to enter the Demonic Miasma Mountain Range. Was he crazy?
