Chapter 306: Infamous

Chapter 306: InfamousTranslator: Cinder Translations

Zhou Xuelin casually threw Zhou Siyi into Song Wen's cave.

After confirming there were no abnormalities, he flew into the cave.

Then, he activated Song Wen's identity token to seal the cave's restrictions.

Next, he needed to forcibly break through the fifth-tier formation, which would definitely cause some noise; sealing the cave's restrictions would make it hard for outsiders to notice.

Zhou Xuelin approached the formation barrier, holding a three-foot green blade.

He circulated his spiritual power.

The long sword suddenly stabbed toward the formation barrier.

The formation barrier shattered like ripples spreading across the surface of a lake when a stone is thrown into it.

However, the next scene caused a sudden surge of ominous premonition in Zhou Xuelin's heart.

After the formation barrier broke, a vast expanse of white mist surged out. Sёarch* The Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

In an instant, Zhou Xuelin and Zhou Siyi were engulfed, filling the entire cave.

Spirit Concealing Mist!

Zhou Xuelin's expression changed slightly.

A large amount of Spirit Concealing Mist filled the narrow cave.

The density of the Spirit Concealing Mist far exceeded that used by Du Tianhua outdoors.

Before him was a white haze, and nothing was visible.

The suppression of spiritual awareness was also much stronger.

His spiritual sense could barely detect movements within half a meter around him.

This made Zhou Xuelin nearly blind.

At the same time, he lost all sense of Zhou Siyi.

Suddenly.

The mist ahead began to surge violently.

Accompanying this were piercing sounds of something slicing through the air.

It was as if a massive iron rod was smashing toward him.

Zhou Xuelin assumed it was Song Wen launching a surprise attack, and a look of disdain crossed his face.

Even with the Spirit Concealing Mist disrupting his perception, a Foundation Establishment cultivator could hardly injure him.

He urged the long sword in his hand, and a cold gleam flashed.

A sword energy slashed through the mist.

"Puff!"

The sound of the sword energy striking something echoed.

Before Zhou Xuelin could check what had been hit, the mist around him began to stir violently.

Zhou Xuelin's expression turned serious as he urged the long sword, unleashing countless sharp sword energies in all directions.

"Puff, puff, puff..."

The sounds of sword energy striking targets rang out one after another.

Followed by the muffled thud of heavy objects hitting the ground.

"Thud, thud, thud..."

Zhou Xuelin realized something was off.

What he struck was not Song Wen, nor some spirit tool, but several tall living beings.

They were the human snakes imprisoned in Song Wen's cave!

From his two recent strikes, he must have hit seven human snakes.

It matched the number of human snakes in Song Wen's cave.

Zhou Xuelin's expression slightly changed as he caught a whiff of a conspiracy.

Relying on his memory, he quickly headed toward the cave's entrance.

Outside the cave.

Fang Pengyi and Song Wen stood suspended in midair.

"Fang Fengyi, you must save me! Zhou Feng from the Spirit Beast Peak wants to kill me!"

Song Wen said in a terrified and trembling voice.

Fang Pengyi could hardly conceal the smug smile on his face, feeling extremely pleased.

He had been worried that the Spirit Beast Peak, being numerous and resourceful, would outpace the Alchemy Peak in the matter of refining human snake corpses and achieve the state of abundant mysterious energy first.

This could lead to the position of sect master falling into Zhou Xuelin's hands.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Xuelin had become disordered and attacked Song Wen, who had managed

to escape.

What a self-inflicted predicament.

"Don't worry, Elder Wu; I will ensure your safety. Zhou Xuelin can't dominate the

Beastmaster Sect yet."

Just then.

The cave's restrictions suddenly opened.

Zhou Xuelin's figure appeared at the entrance of the cave.

When he saw Song Wen and Fang Pengyi, an icy chill suddenly rose in his heart.

'Elder Wu' is actually not in the cave.

This is a trap!

'Elder Wu' colluded with Zhou Siyi, intentionally luring him here, and then used the Spirit Concealing Mist to disrupt his perception, causing him to slaughter all the human snakes.

"Zhou Siyi, that wretched girl! She betrayed me."

Zhou Xuelin's eyes widened with fury, thinking maliciously.

"Zhou Xuelin, as a deputy peak master, how can you secretly attack your fellow sect's

Foundation Establishment elders? This is a disgrace to the reputation of the Beastmaster

Sect!"

Fang Pengyi scolded loudly, his voice booming like a bell.

He intended to attract the attention of more sect members to the incident, exposing Zhou

Xuelin's heinous deeds and tarnishing his reputation.

"Fang Pengyi, get out of the way."

Zhou Xuelin glared at Fang Pengyi, wanting to withdraw as quickly as possible.

However, Fang Pengyi was not about to let go of this opportunity to bring Zhou Xuelin down;

he wouldn't allow him to leave easily.

In the night sky, dozens of figures were rushing toward them.

Fang Pengyi had already notified the entire peak with a jade slip, summoning all Foundation

Establishment cultivators and some Qi Refinement disciples.

These people quickly surrounded the cave's entrance, leaving no escape route.

Zhou Xuelin's expression was as dark as water.

"Fang Pengyi, what do you want?"

Fang Pengyi raised an eyebrow, a mocking smile curling at the corners of his mouth.

"What do I want to do? Of course, I want the whole sect to see your hypocritical face."

"You..."

Zhou Xuelin glared at him, shouting angrily.

"Tell your peak members to move aside; otherwise, I will take action!"

"Ha ha..." Fang Pengyi chuckled lightly.

"Peak Master Zhou, with all eyes on you, you actually think to act against more than ten Foundation Establishment elders and dozens of Qi Refinement disciples from my peak."

At that moment.

Zhou Siyi stumbled out of Song Wen's cave.

She bent her legs and knelt before Zhou Xuelin.

"Father, please spare your daughter; I really don't want to die."

Zhou Siyi's pleas were like adding fuel to the fire.

Secretly assassinating fellow sect elders and violating sect prohibitions was a grave sin.

To want to put his own daughter to death was an even greater evil, a loss of all humanity.

The crowd watching this scene was suddenly in an uproar.

Zhou Siyi was exceptionally beautiful, with outstanding talent, and many cultivators in the

peak held her in high regard.

It was astonishing that Zhou Xuelin would want to harm such a perfect daughter.

Instantly, people began pointing and whispering among themselves.

Zhou Xuelin stared at his pleading daughter, burning with rage, his hands trembling

uncontrollably.

"I have toiled and endured to raise you for over ten years, and you repay my kindness with

malice."

"Father, I just want to live," Zhou Siyi cried, tears streaming down her face, looking pitiful.

"I will kill you, unfilial daughter!"

Zhou Xuelin's anger surged, his killing intent overwhelming.

A tremendous amount of spiritual power gathered between his hands.

Though he desperately wished to tear Zhou Siyi apart, he didn't dare to kill her in front of

everyone.

Otherwise, he would be branded with the stigma of harming his own daughter.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, Peak Master Zhou, you truly are universally despised," Fang Pengyi said

gleefully, fanning the flames.

At this moment, several figures rushed in from the distant sky.

It was the people from the Law Enforcement Hall whom Fang Pengyi had notified.

The newcomers included the head of the Law Enforcement Hall, Luo Liang, the deputy hall

master, Feng Xinghai, and several Foundation Establishment cultivators.

TL: Luo Liang was previously Luo Lianggong...

Zhou Xuelin's face grew increasingly ugly.

With both the head and deputy hall master of the Law Enforcement Hall present, today's

events would not end well.

It was likely that soon, the entire Beastmaster Sect would know:

Zhou Xuelin, a dignified Golden Core cultivator and deputy master of the Spirit Beast Peak,

had secretly assassinated a sect's Foundation Establishment elder.

Moreover, he had failed!

His reputation within the Beastmaster Sect would plummet.

He had completely lost the qualification to vie for the position of sect master.

Though the righteous path values strength, it also emphasizes righteousness and fairness; at

least, that's how it appears on the surface.

The sect master of the Beastmaster Sect could not possibly be someone unprincipled and

infamous.
