Chapter 68
“We three sects teaming up should be able to handle even a Nascent Soul stage demonic cultivator,” Master Liu declared.
“Master Liu, we mustn’t be careless. Someone at the Nascent Soul stage should not be underestimated, especially when facing a demonic cultivator. They might have many cunning tricks up their sleeve,” cautioned another member.
“As long as we can hold out until Master Shangguan breaks through to the Nascent Soul stage,” added a third.
Several individuals had gathered in the Flying Immortal Sect’s main hall. Representatives from the Blazing Sun Sect and the Seven Star Valley were present, along with the four elders of the Flying Immortal Sect. They were engaged in discussions, formulating their plans together.
A Golden Core cultivator from the Blazing Sun Sect inquired, “Elder Huang, what about Elder Li from your sect? Where is he?”
“Elder Li? He went to gather information, and we couldn’t stop him,” replied Elder Huang.
Elder Huang sighed and expressed his trust in Elder Li. “Elder Huang, don’t worry too much. Elder Li has been growing rapidly, and he has an unconventional approach. His accomplishments in alchemy are also outstanding. There might be some hidden talents we don’t know about.”
Elder Xue showed confidence in Elder Li. “Are you all talking about me?” At that moment, a voice interrupted their conversation.
Inside the grand hall, many cultivators turned their gaze and saw Li Su, leading a group of individuals as he appeared at the entrance.
“Elder Li!” Several elders of the Flying Immortal Sect were delighted to see Li Su return safely.
Additionally, Li Su wasn’t inclined to offer him a chance.
“Once we disappear, the Saintess will hone in on this location. When she arrives, you’ll all meet your demise!” the demonic cultivator said icily.
“Your Saintess is at most in the Nascent Soul stage, right? Just Nascent Soul? We’ve got that covered, too,” Li Su replied, attempting to mislead him.
“Hmph, don’t assume you can dupe me with words. If you intend to kill, then do so. Cease the pointless banter,” the demonic cultivator growled.
The Golden Core peak demonic cultivator raised his head defiantly and commented, “This guy’s got some grit.”
Li Su’s calculated efforts to provoke him and extract information had failed since he wasn’t taking the bait. Those who had reached the Golden Core peak in their cultivation were not simpletons.
Because he couldn’t extract any information from him, Li Su sealed the demonic cultivator’s mouth and ears to prevent the other demonic cultivators from overhearing the conversation.
“Elder Wu, these individuals are now under your custody for questioning. Concentrate on the ones in the rear. If you can’t glean any information from them, simply eliminate them and dispose of their remains,” Li Su instructed, addressing one of the elders.
This elder typically oversaw the punishment hall and reprimanded disciples who violated sect regulations. When it came to interrogations, it was best left to the experts.
“Understood, Elder Li. They’re in my charge now,” Elder Wu responded.
Elder Wu reassured them and then produced a pill, compelling the Golden Core peak demonic cultivator to swallow it against his will.
