Chapter 240 The Frustration of the First Lineage of the Immortal Sect
Zhongzhou Immortal Sect.
"What's going on? Wasn't there a temporary ceasefire in Dongqin?"
"Why did they suddenly send out troops again, with a full five million soldiers? They couldn't even hold out for a single day. Are they all useless?"
The sect leader of the Immortal Sect in Zhongzhou looked at the people kneeling below and angrily questioned them.
In this millennium war, their Immortal Sect has had a rough time from the very beginning.
They are often schemed against and suppressed by others.
They finally managed to force Dong Qin to temporarily cease hostilities.
They also amassed a full five million troops to guard against Eastern Qin.
As a result, his five million-strong army was wiped out in a single day. How could he not be furious?
"Sect Master, we don't know why, but the Eastern Qin Divine Martial Army suddenly attacked and slaughtered our five million troops as if they had gone mad. Even after the city was breached, all the forces belonging to our Immortal Sect were massacred, and not a single person escaped."
The person kneeling on the ground had a sob in their voice.
There was nothing we could do! It all happened so suddenly that we didn't give them any time to react or investigate.
The people below are now terrified by the brutality of the Divine Martial Army.
They all asked the Immortal Sect what to do.
"Useless trash, go and investigate immediately what's going on. Why did the Divine Martial Army suddenly go berserk?"
"They also sent people to question the four ancient clans about what they wanted to do."
The sect leader of the Immortal Sect angrily issued an order.
"Yes."
Upon hearing the sect leader's words, the kneeling man immediately stood up and ran outside.
He was genuinely afraid that the sect leader would lose his temper and kill him.
He breathed a sigh of relief after running far away.
A few days later.
I finally found some information.
Only the people of the Immortal Sect knew that it was the Divine Martial King of Eastern Qin who had returned, and it was he who issued the order.
As for why he issued such an order, it was because he suspected that hostile forces had assassinated his queen, and he wanted to avenge her.
This reason left the Immortal Sect and its affiliated people completely bewildered.
The high-ranking officials all knew about the plan to assassinate the Princess Consort of Shenwu, and they had all conspired with her.
They left no clues, believing that Eastern Qin would not dare to act recklessly.
But to my surprise, the Divine Martial King was a madman who didn't investigate at all and started killing based on mere suspicion.
They also discovered that all the people they sent, and those who had contact with them, had their entire clans wiped out by the Divine Martial King's men.
The sect leader of the Immortal Sect was stunned when he heard the news.
He had heard that this Divine Martial King was a madman, but that was just hearsay.
None of them took it seriously, but no one expected that it wasn't just a rumor.
This guy is fucking insane!
They are completely unreasonable. If there is any suspicion, they will not investigate but start killing without any investigation.
Where did this killer come from?! His bloodthirstiness is so great.
The powerful terrestrial immortals of the Immortal Sect lineage were also stunned upon hearing this news.
In the Central Region, it was also a dog-eat-dog world, and they had killed many people, but no one had ever killed anyone like Qin Wu.
In just over ten days.
According to statistics, tens of millions of people have died because of Qin Wu's orders.
"What a madman he is."
The sect leader of the Immortal Sect couldn't help but curse.
"Sect Master Qi, we must find a way to stop them now. We can't let the Divine Martial Army continue fighting like this. If it continues, our losses will be irreparable."
The elder sent by the Central Region Immortal Sect expressed his concerns.
"Elder Gu, I'm afraid that an ordinary army won't be able to stop the Divine Martial Army. This time, it may be necessary for major forces to send powerful figures to lead their armies to block them, or even assassinate high-ranking generals of the Divine Martial Army."
"However, the guards around those generals are very strong, so it is not easy to assassinate them."
"This is what Qi Wufei, the sect leader of Zhongzhou, said."
"Well, let's start the battle between Grandmasters and above! Only in this way can we stop the Divine Martial Army. We also need to contact the sects and ask them to send their sect guards."
"I wonder how the Divine Martial King managed to train such a powerful army."
Elder Gu Lu said.
They also proposed to transfer troops from the Central Region.
They wanted to use the guards of the Central Region sects to deal with the Divine Martial Army.
After all, that was a powerful army trained by their own sect to protect the sect.
It is also the force that their Immortal Sect uses to deal with various major powers.
He believed that as long as a group of sect guards were mobilized, the Divine Martial Army could be suppressed.
"This method will work, but it's probably impossible to keep it a secret that troops are being transferred from the Central Region. The four ancient clans will likely also increase their troops."
Qi Wufei agreed with Elder Gu Lu's opinion.
However, I also have my own concerns.
After all, the four ancient clans are not easy to encounter.
Each of the four ancient clans also has its own clan army. If the Immortal Sect mobilizes its troops, the four ancient clans will definitely not let the Immortal Sect get away with it easily.
"It's alright. We'll just send the message back. The sect leader will make the decision. Besides, Dong Qin broke the rules first, so we're in the right. There's nothing to worry about."
Elder Gu Lu said.
He knew what Qi Wufei was worried about.
However, this is not something they should worry about; he believes the sect leader will make the best arrangements.
"Alright, then I'll trouble Elder Gu to send a message to the sect leader."
Seeing Elder Gu's expression, Qi Wufei didn't say anything more.
Anyway, just report this matter; the rest is up to the higher-ups to decide.
The two then discussed some other matters.
They decided to mobilize a large army again, hoping to delay the Divine Martial Army for as long as possible.
They also instructed their subordinate forces to begin assassinating the generals of the Divine Martial Army.
Not long after they had arranged everything.
More bad news arrived.
The Huangji Sword Sect and Sangeng also took the opportunity to launch another frenzied attack on their immortal sect.
Moreover, this time it's not limited to the area around Dongqin, but they've started targeting the forces of their immortal sects throughout the Central Plains.
Especially at midnight, he would go crazy and act recklessly.
Even outside their immortal sect's main gate, there are sometimes attacks by people at midnight.
This infuriated Qi Wufei, making him grit his teeth with hatred for Sangeng, but he was powerless to do anything about it.
They don't show up on their own, so you can't find any trace of them.
Time passed little by little.
They became even more frenzied at midnight, and later even began attacking the Immortal Sect.
Although it didn't cause much damage to the Immortal Sect, it was a slap in the face for them.
After several attempts, the people at midnight realized that infiltrating the Immortal Sect was indeed too difficult, and even self-destruction would not cause any damage.
So they stopped insisting.
However, they set up landmine traps around the Immortal Sect.
This has given the Immortal Sect a real headache.
The disciples of the Immortal Sect must be extremely careful with every step they take when they go out, otherwise, if they take the wrong step, they may end up in a free flight, and then die or lose a part of their body.
This applies not only to the Immortal Sect, but also to its subordinate forces.
However, since they currently lack a powerful cultivator at the Land Immortal Realm, their situation is far worse than that of the Immortal Sect.
However, they had no way to resolve the issue.
Some forces even hid in the Immortal Sect to escape the pursuit of the Imperial Sword Sect and the Three Watches.
