Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

Chapter 302 World 514

“Let’s go,” Lin Jingjing said, leading her younger sister up to the platform in a few steps.

Lin Jingjing struck the large drum on the high platform, attracting the attention of everyone in the formation, while Yinyin directly pulled out the Xuan Nu Sect flag stuck in the stone block next to her and waved it.

"Head southwest," Hongyao glanced around and determined the direction, then led Xiangsi and Qiushui, who had recently joined them, in that direction.

They arrived at the perfect time; the last and most powerful of the Bo brothers was just about to make a move against another of their fellow disciples.

Seeing this, Hongyao pulled out the hairpin from her hair and threw it away. Xiangsi drew her sword and followed closely behind the hairpin, engaging the Bo brothers in battle.

Qiu Shui and the others first pulled their injured fellow disciples out of the battle, where they were cared for by several other second-rate experts. The group of them then flew forward and formed a battle formation with Hong Yao and the other two.

Although this person had already demonstrated the strength of a first-class mid-level player, he was unfortunately matched by Xiangsi, who was equally matched with him, and there were also Hongyao, Qiushui, and others assisting him in wearing him down. Soon, he followed in the footsteps of his two brothers.

The three Bo brothers, who relied on formations to defeat opponents far above their level, were all defeated by the formations today.

The three Bo brothers, whose dantian had been destroyed, finally reunited. However, they still couldn't believe their defeat and accused the Xuan Nu Sect of using underhanded tactics to deny them a chance to demonstrate their true strength.

Xiangsi and the others found it amusing; they weren't stupid for challenging themselves with such a difficult task.

"We all know how powerful you three are when you team up, so what makes you think we'll let the three of you stay together?"

“Tell me, who sent you?”

The eldest of the three Bo brothers said, "Naturally, it's the Liu family."

"Even with your dantian destroyed, you're still so stubborn," Qiu Shui said, holding a whip and smiling like a femme fatale. "Since we can't get anything out of you, I think there's no need to ask anymore. Just cut off your head and hang it down the mountain so others can see the consequences of daring to provoke our Xuan Nu Sect."

"After all, among these three brothers, there is one mid-level first-class and one peak-level first-class. Using such experts to make an example of them is naturally the best option."

The three brothers, having their dantian destroyed, felt it was no different from death. Even when Qiu Shui threatened them with their lives, they remained silent about the real mastermind behind it all.

After being asked many questions, all they could say in the end was: "So what if you can defeat a few of our top-tier experts? Once a true master makes a move, no matter how exquisite your formation is, it can't withstand real strength. Someone will avenge us."

The meaning of these words couldn't be clearer: for some unknown reason, the Xuan Nu Sect had been targeted by a top expert, and although the three Bo brothers were powerful, they were merely pawns for others.

Qiu Shui and the others all looked at Hong Yao.

Hongyao chuckled lightly: "If you have the guts, call him here. I'm afraid the people behind you are too proud to show up in person and silence the gossip in the martial world."

The three Bo brothers' faces stiffened.

Hongyao was unwilling to get entangled with them any longer, so she directly ordered them to be killed as a warning to others, to show the martial arts world the capabilities of the Xuan Nu Sect.

The news that the Xuan Nu Sect hadn't been wiped out by the Bo brothers, but instead used them to establish their authority, quickly spread throughout the martial arts world. Because Xuan Nu hadn't made a move from beginning to end, the sect's overall strength was rated higher by various powerful factions.

Many invitations from the martial arts world were sent to the Xuan Nu Sect, but Hong Yao adhered to Xuan Nu's instructions before her seclusion and refused to go to any forces, no matter how difficult it was to refuse.

The formation built by Yin Yin and others played a significant role in dealing with the three Bo brothers. Her fellow disciples of the same generation were all happy every day, and they were more motivated in both martial arts training and other tasks.

However, Yin Yin and Lin Jingjing, who are both quite perceptive of emotions, noticed that the managers seemed to have something on their minds.

Lin Jingjing was puzzled: "Yinyin, our crisis has been resolved, so why do your aunts and other female relatives still seem unhappy?"

“Perhaps there are some things we don’t know about here,” Yinyin sat up. “Sister, do you remember our previous guesses?”

"Which one?" Lin Jingjing couldn't quite remember.

Yinyin reminded her, "It's just that the Liu family couldn't possibly get the three Bo brothers to help."

Lin Jingjing realized: "You mean, your aunts and uncles have received information about the real mastermind, but dealing with this person might be more troublesome than dealing with the Bo brothers?"

"Even more troublesome than them..." Lin Jingjing muttered, "They can't be top-tier experts or absolute masters, can they?"

“That’s quite possible,” Yin Yin said. “Otherwise, it’s impossible to explain why Aunt Hongyao and the others have been so on high alert these days, even practicing martial arts and formations more diligently than before.”

"Hiss," Lin Jingjing gasped. Now that she had mastered the basics of martial arts, she had long since clearly distinguished the difference between a top-level master and a first-rate peak. "What should we do? If he is really a top-level master, unless Master successfully emerges from seclusion, our entire sect will be no match for him with just one hand."

Yinyin looked at her calmly: "Isn't this the only way?"

"Once Master emerges from seclusion and becomes a top-tier expert, all crises will be easily resolved."

“But we don’t know when Master will be able to come out of seclusion,” Lin Jingjing said with some worry. “When things were in such a mess in the sect, we even made a fuss, but there was no movement from Master’s side at all. If it weren’t for the fact that the food sent to him every day has been touched…”

“Sister, can’t you think of something positive?” Yin Yin said. “Master is breaking through to the pinnacle, and it’s a good thing that he doesn’t give up halfway. If he gives up halfway, who knows when he will have another opportunity to break through and gain insights.”

Lin Jingjing stroked her chin and suddenly thought, "Yinyin, do you think it's possible that someone doesn't want Master to advance to the pinnacle, so they sent someone here to deliberately lure Master out of seclusion ahead of schedule?"

"But none of the servants who come to deliver things to our household know that Master is in seclusion. How did that person find out? Could it be that there is an outsider acting as an informant within the sect?"

“He doesn’t necessarily need to be completely sure,” Yin Yin said. “Master’s skill has reached a bottleneck, and she has been stuck at the peak of the first-class level for quite some time now. Usually, she doesn’t go into seclusion for very long, and she has never summoned all her fellow disciples who are away.”

"The reason why the sect has been closed off for so long is something that anyone familiar with the sect can probably guess."

"But sister, perhaps we should also be wary of the inside man you mentioned. Just in case, it would be good to remind Aunt a few things."
