Chapter Thirty: Conspiracy Emerges

  Looking at the crowd retreating in a row without any way to attack, Xu Hua let out a loud roar and struck directly at the seven-inch lower abdomen of the Bi Shui Mang.

  Clang, Clank

  The emerald water snake's hard scales were comparable to divine armor, and even Xu Hua's powerful fists, which exceeded 2,400 pounds of force, couldn't penetrate the seven inches below its abdomen. Instead, a metallic clashing sound was produced. This shocked Xu Hua, but he also saw that the same spot had a small opening with blood flowing out. The emerald water snake suddenly became extremely frenzied, perhaps sensing death's presence, and it continuously whipped its massive tail, catching Xu Hua off guard and sending him flying backward.

  "Prince!" Seeing the prince injured, Luo Cheng immediately disregarded the green snake and rushed over to catch Xu Hua.

  "Up! Attack the seven inches! It's already injured." Xu Long's eyes flashed with excitement, his true energy frantically circulating inside him as he crazily attacked the Bishui Mang's seven inches.

  "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

  Lu Tianhu, Tuo Jiu, Dong Tienshu and Hei Pao were the same, for a time, Bi Shui Mang bore the brunt of the attack, wailing incessantly.

  Looking at the swaying, seemingly about to fall Bishui Mang, Guang Tou was excited for a moment, but in an instant he was pierced through the chest by Bishui Mang's sharp tail, and a large amount of fresh blood flowed out of his mouth. His face was filled with an incredulous expression, and until his death, he did not know why Bishui Mang suddenly came back to life again and attacked him.

  "Everyone is attacking at this point, it's its last-ditch counterattack."

  "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

  Another string of crazy bombing, the python finally reluctantly fell into the water pool, becoming a corpse, and the snake's blood dyed the entire pool red.

  The four village masters stood in the four directions, tightly surrounding Qinglian, but their eyes were fixed on the other three people. Their respective subordinates stood with them, only Xu Hua fell to one side, and Luo Cheng supported him.

  Actually, Xu Hua was not seriously injured. Although he was initially unable to withstand the massive force of Bi Shui Mang and flew backwards, after the flow of life energy within his body passed through, Xu Hua basically recovered. The reason he pretended to be heavily injured was to lower the vigilance of the four people towards him. After all, treasure tempts people's hearts, and no one wouldn't want such a large Qing Lian.

  Bishui Mang is dead, but no one noticed, which made it convenient for Xu Hua. The place where he lay was only twenty zhang away from Bishui Mang. With the operation of "Shengong", a large amount of life energy began to flow into his body from Bishui Mang's body.

  "This green lotus may be a treasure, but the ruins are just ahead. Why don't we retrieve the ruins first and then come back for it?" Tuojiu suggested, looking at the three men with unpleasant expressions.

  "I have no opinion."

  "I have no opinion either."

  "I have no opinion either."

  After the three responded, they all looked at Xu Hua and Luo Cheng. Feeling the strange gaze of the crowd, Luo Cheng blocked Xu Hua in front of him and shouted: "What do you want to do?"

  Lu Tianhu smiled gloomily and said, "You're not lightly injured by the Azure Water Python, I just don't know how much of your strength is left. If you're not strong enough, then you don't have the qualifications to receive the same treatment as us!"

  "You can try." Xu Hua stood up, his eyes coldly scanning the crowd before finally settling on Lu Tianhu's face. However, his left hand involuntarily trembled slightly, a movement that although small, was caught by the keen-eyed four fort masters, who thought to themselves: Indeed severely injured, but stubbornly holding on.

  Boom!

  Without any warning, Lu Tianhu really made his move, but was blocked by someone. Everyone was shocked to see the small boy standing in front of Xu Hua.

  Hmph! Hmph!

  Lu Tianhu took a step back and Luo Cheng took two steps back. In one move, Luo Cheng was slightly inferior.

  "Hiss..."

  "Unexpectedly, he is also a strong martial artist of the Wu Wang. What are their identities and how can they be so terrifying?" Xu Long said with a serious tone.

  Lu Tianhu felt his face burning with shame and anger, he couldn't defeat Xu Hua, but what was even more unbearable was that one of Xu Hua's followers had almost the same strength as him.

  "Seeking death!" Lu Tianhu let out a loud roar, his mind made up to kill the two men. The threat they posed was too great, and if they were at their peak, it would be easy for them to kill him. This was a rare opportunity that might not come again, but just as he was about to strike, Xu Long suddenly blocked his way.

  "This is not the time for infighting, and we don't even know if there's danger in the ruins yet!" Xu Long's stance was firm.

  "Are you sure you want to stop me?" Lu Tianhu roared as if he had suffered a great humiliation.

  "What grievances you have with each other, I don't care about. But at this time, we can't break the rules." Xu Long said, glancing at Zuo Jiu and Dong Tian Shu, which made Lu Tianhu startled, silently weighing the pros and cons in his heart.

  Tu Jiu originally didn't have the intention to block, no matter if it was Xu Hua or Lu Tianhu, he couldn't bear to look at them. If they really fought to the death, that would be just what he wanted. Dong Tian Shu, on the other hand, seemed completely indifferent.

  "Brother Tuo, you're the only one who has seen the ruins, and we still haven't laid eyes on them yet." As soon as Xu Long said this, Tuo Jiu had no choice but to come out and intercept him.

  "Lu Xiong, don't be impulsive." Tuo Jiu immediately spoke out to stop Lu Tianhu.

  Lu Tianhu looked at everyone, his face changing from sunny to cloudy, and finally gave up.

  "Thank you, Lord Xu." Xu Hua looked at Xu Long with a grateful gaze.

  Xu Long smiled faintly and said: "A matter of principle."

  "Come on, Brother Tuo. The Bi Shui Mang has been taken care of. It's time for us to take a look at the ruins! I've never seen any ruins in my life!" said Dong Tian Shu.

  A group of people walked past the pool of water inside the cave and continued on their way.

  The entire cave is unknown whether it was excavated by human or formed naturally, if it was excavated by human, then the master of this place has really spent some effort.

  Xu Hua's face was a bit pale, but this was all he pretended to be. In his heart, he was laughing with joy. Just a moment ago, he had absorbed a large amount of life energy from the body of Bi Shui Mang. If someone were to go back and take a look, they would find that Bi Shui Mang's corpse had already shrunk, and it didn't look like it had just died.

  As they walked, Xu Hua suddenly stopped and said, "Do you smell a foul odor?"

  "No, maybe it's what you got stained with at Bi Shui Mang just now." The crowd shook their heads, they didn't feel anything.

  Pressing down the doubts in his heart, Xu Hua became even more cautious, and Luo Cheng said in a low voice: "Young master, I didn't feel anything either."

  "Be careful."

  After walking for about 50 or 60 meters, they finally arrived at the end of this cave. In front of them was a larger cave with an indoor pool, but here grew a patch of green lotus flowers, about 7 or 8 plants, all as big as the one just now.

  "So many green lotus! There are actually so many heavenly treasures here, it's unbelievable!" Dong Tian Shu was really too excited, and directly jumped into the water, swimming towards the green lotus.

  Xu Hua felt something was off and asked: "Is this really the ruins? It doesn't look like it at all!"

  "Brother Tuo? Where's the relic? Could this Qinglian be the relic?" Xu Long didn't believe that Tuojiu would be so kind-hearted from the start, and upon discovering something was off, he immediately pressed for an answer.

  Tu Jiu's eyes flickered with a hint of unusual color as he smiled and said, "Actually, I'm just guessing too. After all, there's that green python at the entrance, so I couldn't come in either. But can't this patch of green lotus explain the problem?"

  Just then, Xu Hua suddenly felt three powerful life auras in the water pool, approaching Dong Tian Shu who had just jumped into the water.

  "Be careful, there's something in the water!"

  But it was too late, a black shadow flashed by, and Dong Tian Shu was swallowed up in one gulp.

  "Ah..."

  In the pond, huge waves surged up in succession. At this time, the water surface was surging again, and a huge snake head emerged from the pond. The ferocious appearance was frightening, and it seemed to be bigger and more terrifying than the green python encountered before.

  "Green water snake! There's a green water snake here, everyone be careful, don't go into the water!" Xu Long roared.

  Xu Hua was equally shocked, no one knew more about the strength of these big guys than he did. He could feel the majestic life energy inside this guy's body, if all of it were to be converted into Life Crystals, it would be enough to condense seven or eight Life Crystals. Immediately, Xu Hua pulled Luo Cheng back.

  "Hiss...hiss"

  Another head of the green water snake emerged from the surface, and instantly two giant snakes opened their mouths wide towards the crowd. Xu Hua glanced at everyone and found that there was a flash of excitement in Tuojiu's eyes, suddenly understanding: There was no relic at all, everything was set up by Tuojiu, with the purpose of putting everyone to death, but he didn't know how he had allied himself with these monsters.

  "Ah..."

  "Ah..."

  Two consecutive mournful cries, representing two lives being swallowed by the Green Water Python. Taking advantage of the python's feeding time, Lu Tianhu, Hei Pao, and Xu Long simultaneously launched an attack on the python's vital spot.

  Clang, clang.

  After one blow, the two immediately returned to their original place. Perhaps these two green water pythons were stronger than the previous one, or perhaps the attacking power of the two was not as good as Xu Hua's, and they didn't even break the snakeskin of the two green water pythons.

  "Ah..."

  "Ah, Lord Taibai..."

  "What are you doing?" Lu Tianhu looked at the two people who had fallen to the ground and couldn't get up, and he stared at Tuo Jiu in extreme shock, shouting.

  "Can't you see that? The leader of the Tuo Village is obviously in cahoots with Bi Shui Mang." Xu Hua said disdainfully, looking at Lu Tianhu.

  Tu Jiu glanced at Xu Hua, sneered and said: "I didn't expect it to be you who saw through everything, but you still have to die. Since you slaughtered half of my village, this ending was already sealed." Then he looked at Lu Tianhu and Xu Long and said: "As for you two, after you die, everything will belong to me."

  "Will this demon snake let you go?" Xu Long dodged the Emerald Water Python's attack, his eyes full of murderous intent.

  "Haha, don't worry about them anymore, go die!" Then he said to the green python in the water: "Come on, these people are your sacrifices, enjoy them well!"
