Chapter 337 Man’s calculation is not as good as God’s calculation The two were not worried that Gong Shixi would expose that they were in cahoots with Shi Chun. According to Shi Chun's guess, this disaster was caused by Gong Shixi behind the scenes, but unfortunately there is no evidence. If Gong Shixi dared to expose the matter in public, if he dared to do something detrimental to Shi Chun in public, so many people would not be able to silence him. Instead, he would be exposing himself to the evil sect for violating the Three Veins Alliance. He could not afford the price. The fear is that this guy won't cause trouble in person, but will instigate behind the scenes and not give others any handle. This seems to be the case. Gong Shixi quickly glanced at the scene and immediately noticed the two people. It was hard not to notice them. The magic weapons they made were too conspicuous and he saw them at a glance. Seeing these two people present, Gong Shixi was slightly stunned. He didn't know whether these two knew his and Shi Chun's identities. No matter what, he did not move forward. He signaled his entourage to stop where they were, allowing the people from other sects to overwhelm them and reach the front, while they hid behind. There are quite a few sects that came together this time, and quite a few of them had suffered losses at the hands of the Fire Bats before. Zuo Zisheng, leader of the Liantian Sect, looked at the people from various factions that swarmed over to him. He appeared calm on the surface, but was actually full of annoyance in his heart. Even he himself felt uncomfortable with this style, which made him seem like the leader of all the factions. Of course, he also did not think that he was not qualified. The Liantian Sect was the largest sect in the weapon refining world and was the big brother in front of all other sects.

But the problem is, he doesn't want to take the lead. Shu Daoshan's strength has been greatly weakened, and his Liantian Sect is strong in both men and horses, so he can handle it alone. He can completely take it all on his own. Is it necessary to join forces with this group of rabble? When a group of people come together, it is natural that they want to share the benefits. It is said that some bastard was the one who spread the evil wind to the various sects, saying that after the success, there would be no extra divine fires, and each sect could only get one, and whoever contributed the most would get it first. Although there is only one flower, he is very clear how tempting it is to most sects. Those sects came here to try their luck, and by the end it is just a formality to accumulate some experience for the sect. Under normal circumstances, they will not be able to find a single flower unless they are very lucky. Now there is suddenly an opportunity to get a brick when the wall falls, so naturally people will rush to do so. As soon as he met these people, he was surrounded by people from various factions who asked for a share of the profits. Although it was difficult for everyone to do so, he still refused. But he did not refuse in public. There were too many sects involved. It would be offensive to say anything before the agreement was made. No matter how powerful the Liantian Sect was, it was not easy to offend the entire refining world. Being the big brother had its difficulties. There were many people who were unhappy with being the number one and were eager to find an opportunity. So he didn't want to come with these people at all, but the reality was not something he could do. Among these sects, there were some that were friendly with his Liantian Sect, and they left road signs for them along the way, but the road signs only went as far as the filled-in tiankeng. How could they find it aimlessly? No matter how smart the Liantian Sect was, they didn't dare to run around blindly in this forbidden place. The elders in the sect have repeatedly warned them of the dangerous situation in the forbidden area. Even Elder Situ Gu has personally warned them not to enter without permission. But they still came here with gritted teeth. This is the pride of the largest sect. As disciples, they do not allow outsiders to blaspheme. How can they accept it if their achievements after leaving are stepped on by others? This is also the difficulty of ranking first. As a result, after arriving, they inevitably ran into a group of people from various sects who had suffered losses in the tiankeng. I want to leave everyone behind and keep moving forward, but I don’t know where the goal is. I don’t dare to run around, but I’m reluctant to give up and turn back. What else can I do? I heard from various factions that Li Hongjiu from Yanbao Sect led his men further inside. He seemed to be a really brave man, as even the senior masters of Yanbao Sect did not dare to trespass into this place, but that lazy fellow was stubborn enough to do so. He had observed Li Hongjiu a lot before entering the Divine Fire Domain and found that he was a lazy guy and unreliable no matter how he looked at him. The real leader should be Guang Haoyou. The reason why he paid special attention to Li Hongjiu was because the sect had specifically instructed him to do so. It is said that this man is the last disciple of Qu Wuming, the head of Yanbao Sect. It is rumored that he has a very high talent for cultivation and is very good at fighting. It is said that he once used his high martial arts skills to fight against a person in the human immortal realm without being defeated. Although it was just a rumor, outsiders didn't know whether it was true or not. According to investigation, he was indeed a lazy person in Yanbao Sect, and he was a bit idle. But after Yanbao Sect suffered a loss from Jihuo Sect in this treasure offering, they actually sent this Li Hongjiu to participate. Why would they send a lazy person to lead such a big event? To some extent, it has explained the problem, so we should be extra careful when facing them. Just when they were in a dilemma after being mixed up with various factions, people from some other sects arrived one after another. Then someone from the Jihuo Sect suddenly came and said that they had found the whereabouts of Shi Chun and his gang, and asked everyone to follow him.

Well, the Liantian Sect’s group was immediately helpless, and Zuo Zisheng was at a loss as well. They didn’t just notify his family secretly, they notified everyone. He couldn’t even leave the other sects and act alone. So, should he join forces with everyone? Obviously, he had no choice but to follow everyone like a big brother. Along the way, he was wondering about one thing. He didn't know what was wrong with the Jihuo Sect. They didn't hesitate to use the "Broken Wasteland Blade" to bring in so many people. They must be here to win the championship, right? Why did they share this with everyone? No matter how you look at it, the behavior of the Jihuo Sect is abnormal. Are you afraid that you can't win over Shudao Mountain and are you looking for help? Or do you want to win people's hearts and seek the position of the leader in the weapon refining world? At this moment, look, his gaze paused and he saw the guy who was spreading rumors and misleading the people, Yin Tianlu, the leader of the Jihuo Sect. Yin Tianlu saw thousands of people coming, and a smile appeared on his face. He then slowly turned his head to look at Gu Lianni and others who looked very unhappy. The scene was very lively, but it became relatively quiet, and the atmosphere was weird. In the crowd of people from the Liantian Sect, a masked man wearing a cloak that covered his face and figure allowed the disciples of the Liantian Sect to pass by, then walked behind Zuo Zisheng and whispered, "The two people holding the magic weapons are Xu Anchang and You Mu from the Siding Sect. They are Shi Chun's accomplices." This person was none other than Yan Ketao, the traitor of Shudao Mountain. He did not want to confront Shudao Mountain's people head-on, so he covered up. Not only does he not want to face it head-on now, he will also try his best to avoid it in the future. He knew very well that Shu Daoshan would never say that he was a traitor, and would firmly nail the word "traitor" to him. It was only natural for the master to purge his sect if he betrayed his master, and no one could say anything about it. Zuo Zisheng nodded slightly to show that he understood. After looking at Xu Anchang and the other two, he turned back to look at Gong Shixi and his gang. He was a little surprised. How come they were gone when they were just together? He turned around and looked around, and saw that Gong Shixi and his gang seemed to be hiding at the back, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly. The reason why Gong Shixi and his group were qualified to come with him was because he strongly invited them. Gong Shixi had no choice but to agree to his invitation. The reason also lies with Yan Ketao, a traitor in Shudao Mountain. Yan Ketao participated in the siege of Qianyan Sect by Shudao Mountain and Mingshan Sect, and he told Zuo Zisheng all the relevant situations. Yan Ketao reported not only the siege of Qianyan Sect but also the siege of Wangqing Valley. So Zuo Zisheng wanted to know what Gong Shixi had secret conversations with Shi Chun and the others when they were surrounded. It happened that people from Jihuo Sect came to report that they had found the whereabouts of Shi Chun and the others. They were in a hurry to set off, so he had to call Gong Shixi to his side to have a chat with him along the way. Gong Shixi, who was hiding in the back, was feeling a little nervous. She felt as if things were getting out of control and suddenly felt a little confused. It would be fine if Shi Chun's people saw me rushing in front, but I didn't know whether Zuo Zisheng would believe what I explained before. He certainly wouldn't say that I and Shi Chun were from the magic path, nor would he say that they talked about things related to the magic path. He could only lie to fool them. The key is that he didn't dare to betray Shi Chun openly. Worried about Zuo Zisheng, she couldn't help but look over there twice more, only to find that Zuo Zisheng turned around and stared at her again, and she felt very uncomfortable. He didn't want to get involved with Zuo Zisheng, nor did he want to get together with everyone else. He just wanted to hide behind and cause trouble. He felt that he was hiding at the back and walking slowly, wanting to keep some distance from the pursuers and not to show up. But man proposes, God disposes. He was careless for a moment and found that there was a large group of people waiting for him up ahead. He couldn't help but throw himself into the arms of the big guys, awkwardly but naturally joining in with everyone. He was furious at the time and asked the spies who took turns to lead the way how they explored the route. The spy was also confused and said that this was not right, as they had clearly passed through. He had clearly seen large groups of troops from various factions passing through here and going to a farther place ahead. How come they were running back? The answer is actually not difficult to know. From the damage suffered by each faction at the scene, it was clear that something had happened. It became clear after some inquiry. The reason why they turned around and ran back was because they were attacked by strange bats in front. In this forbidden area, no one dared to run around. They could only run along the route they had already walked and run back and forth. Then Gong Shixi understood that the other two spies who took turns to spy might not be able to come back to report. Seeing that so many people from various factions had died, those two might never come back. Just like that, he got in with the group and was seen by the people from Liantian Sect, and then things turned out like this.

He was a little melancholy and depressed. At this time, Yin Tianlu of Jihuo Sect naturally didn't want to be lonely. After looking at the silent crowd with a smile, he said, "Are you ready to just watch the fun?" He was reminding all factions that it was agreed that only those who put in effort would get a share of the divine fire, and those who just watched and did nothing would get nothing. So nearly a thousand people pretended not to see Shudaoshan and took the initiative to surround Shudaoshan. Gong Shixi took advantage of the chaos and hid behind a hillside with the people from Qianyan Sect. They would not personally participate in this matter. Xu Anchang, who was keeping an eye on them all the time, saw where they were going and still kept paying attention. The people of Jihuo Sect did not move, and several other large sects did not move either. They just watched coldly as other sects launched a siege. Gu Lianni's face was more solemn than ever before, and she no longer looked down on the Jihuo Sect. She knew that Shu Daoshan was in big trouble this time, and she regretted a little bit for not listening to Shi Chun. But she knew that if she were given another chance to choose, she would still not abandon her fellow disciples and run away. Everyone on and off Shudao Mountain was very nervous. They all leaned against each other with their backs facing inwards and were on guard facing outwards, with weapons in hand, as if they were facing a powerful enemy. Yuan Yao also regretted not listening to Shi Chun, but at this moment he could only think of ways to protect himself. He leaned close to Gu Lianni and whispered, "If things are irreversible, we can only betray Shi Chun and the others and see if it works." Gu Lianni nodded slightly. She understood what he meant. She had no choice but to do so. The most important thing was to protect Shu Daoshan's own people first. (End of this chapter)
