Chapter 536 - THE SWORD IS STILL ON HIS LAP

One of the officers of the army when they saw their soldiers die without even having the chance to attack were broken by the fear.

He is not the only one.

And this is bad news for the officers. So one of the officers mustered his courage. His hand trembling, he pulled out his sword

'Attack him! For Yong!' His shout awakened the other soldiers from their disbelief, awe and fear.

It still takes some time to break out from that feeling of fears but they quickly muster their courage.

They are the soldiers of the empire.

Both the soldiers in Yong and Zhou side broke out from their thoughts. They did not expect that two of their experts were so easily killed by a grandmaster.

But that shout brought them out from their feelings of fears. They know they still had to proceed with their duty.

A few dozen soldiers charged forward with their swords thrusted forward.

'For Yong!'

'For Zhou!'

'For general Xu Yao!' All kinds of shout could be heard.

On the other side of the mountaintop, at the same time, those soldiers rushed forward to kill Azief, the spies in the heterodox and orthodox sect also begins their attacks

Sun Devouring Sect and Vulture Peak elders look at each other, nodded like they have an understanding with each other and they then shouted

'This is the time. Kill the orthodox sect first and then we avenge our Elders!' they then fly up and begins attacking the orthodox sect.

To Wen Zhong and Elder Mo this is the time to seize the opportunity to kill as many martial artists as possible as the grandmaster is preoccupied with the soldiers

To them, no matter how powerful the grandmaster really is, he could not escape so easily. They all noted that the grandmaster is sitting on a wheelchair.

He must have some injuries making him unable to use lightness technique.

No matter how powerful a grandmaster really is, when they are surrounded by thousands of soldiers without any abilities to run away, they still would have died.

It is why they attacked.

The sudden declaration of attack sends the entire mountain top into a frenzy. The other heterodox sect could not help but understand some things.

They all look toward the Sun Devouring Sect and Vulture Peak with hatred in their hearts. It is one thing to fight the orthodox sect but it is another thing to collude with the imperial government.

The Cave leaders of the Thirty-Six Cave sect look at the Elders of Vulture Peak and the Sun Devouring Sect like they were traitors of the martial arts world.

By now the Poison Valley, Dark Heart Temple, Thirty-Six Cave Sect all had no doubt that the two sects have thrown their lot with the imperial dynasties.

And they have no intention of helping those two sects attacking the orthodox sect.

Poison Valley, Dark Heart temple, Thirty-Six Cave Sect and all other heterodox sect that come in attendance all decided to preserve their strength but then they heard a ruckus all around them.

They were shocked to see some of their sect members are killing their other sect members.

'Stop!'

'What are you doing'

'What is the meaning of this?' One of the Poison Maiden shouted and it was then that she found out that in the sect there are many that have become spies for the imperial dynasties.

Even the Monks of the Dark heart Temple is fighting each other, the sound of their metal staff clashing against each other created sparks of fire that flashes through the entire mountain top.

Only the Thirty-Six Cave sect pick a spot and preserve their strength.

Out of all the sects on top of the mountaintop, they are the only sect that did not have a spy and since they already know this is the imperial dynasties scheme they did not want to get involved and shave off their own strength.

The Thirty-Six Cave sect was headed by Demonic Monarch Xie, a famous grandmaster of the heterodox path and also an ardent hater of the imperial government.

Almost all of the people that joined the Thirty-Six Cave sect hated the imperial government and most of them have irreconcilable hatred for both imperial governments of Yong and Zhou.

The Cave Leader of the First Cave look at all this chaos and he relayed his orders to the other Cave Leader.

They were to stay put and did not enter as these people fight with the imperial spies. They will wait and act according to circumstances.

At the same time Zhu Yao, Su Meng and Jian Que also had to fight some orthodox sect members who had thrown their lot with the imperial dynasties.

They attacked whoever attacked them. Suspicion and fear infected all of the people in the orthodox sect. They did not know who is the spies so they attacked whoever attacked them.

The orthodox sect places righteousness as first so they hesitate to kill some people. If this was Azief it didn't matter. Since they attacked him, then they have signed their death warrant.

In a peaceful world, there are many avenues. But in a war, there is only one choice. Kill or be killed. To show mercy, one must have power first.

Azief could see who is the spies and who are not with a glance and thus he could always make the right decision. But what was the prerequisite?

Power and his abilities. If he did not have all that, he would cut everyone who tries to cut him. This is the advantage of having power.

It is not to lord people over it, but to make the best decision. But Zhu Yao and the others did not possess such abilities.

They did not know whether those people who attacked them is a spies, or they believed that they are the spies.

In such chaos, they could only act.

Whatever the case, the battle on top of the Five Element Mountains has truly begins.

The heterodox sect is fighting against each other while the Sun Devouring Sect and Vulture Peak is attacking the orthodox sect with the spies also interfering, killing many of the orthodox sect disciples.

But both factions of the martial arts world, whether it be the orthodox sects or the heterodox sects knows this is not the fight between their difference in ideologies but this is a fight with the imperial dynasties.

It is pure chaos on top of the mountain top. In the middle of the mountains, those soldiers from the foot of the mountain is also nearing to reach the top.

There are thousands of troops coming up and that numbers might be increasing as long as these martial artists could not breakthrough.

The two dynasties have planned this moves very carefully. If not for the appearance of Azief, they might have settle this earlier and even faster.

But now with the death, of their two experts, only chaos reigned on top of the mountaintop. On the other hand, Xi Feng is still pushing the wheelchair forward.

Azief still did not opens his eyes, and his sword is still on his lap.

Xi Feng felt nervous as he saw many more people charging towards his teacher.

He wanted to release the handle of the wheelchair and pull out his sword and protects his teacher but he pushes that thought down.

Since his teacher did not say anything, he would keep pushing the wheelchair forward. He would trust his teacher.
