Chapter 51: Chapter 47 Night Battle

The three of them all chuckled lightly.

Iron Eagle continued:

"However, our goal this time is not to slaughter the True Martial Sect, but to come for the True Martial Sect’s legacy."

Iron Dragon nodded and said:

"That’s right, the primary target is the Scripture Pavilion. Second Brother, you’re the fastest. When the time comes, you go to the Scripture Pavilion. I’ll create a disturbance in the front to draw Jiang Baishan and those True Disciples over. If anyone gets in your way, swiftly deal with them and find the cultivation technique of the True Martial Sect."

"Third Brother, you’ll provide rear support. If there’s any commotion, assist us in retreating. Also, keep an eye on the foot of the mountain. If others are also targeting the True Martial Sect, it would be troublesome if they clash with us."

Iron Tiger and Iron Eagle both nodded.

The three have been infamous for years, yet they can still be free and unrestrained, thanks to their tacit cooperation.

However, Iron Tiger was a bit unwilling and said:

"Big Brother, this person surnamed Wang paid such a high price to invite us three brothers. It seems that the legacy of the True Martial Sect is no small matter. Are we just going to hand it over to him?"

Iron Dragon sighed:

"You fool, we’ll quietly make a copy for ourselves at that time, and give one to Wang. If Taoist Longshan comes out alive and vigorous, we can use them to draw Taoist Longshan’s attention."

"Rumors in the martial world say that Taoist Longshan could reach the Primordial Core Realm so quickly because of the legacy he obtained back then. If there’s a chance, we must see it for ourselves."

"If it really is an unparalleled legacy, after we grab it, we’ll flee far to Cang State. Do you think the one surnamed Wang and Taoist Longshan can cross mountains and rivers to find us?"

The three of them shared a sinister smile.

The night grew deeper.

Iron Dragon checked the time and said coldly:

"Let’s go!"

The three of them flew across the air like great eagles.

Then they split into three teams.

Iron Tiger crouched near the True Martial Sect’s mountain gate for support, Iron Dragon headed straight for the True Martial Sect, and as for Iron Eagle, he concealed himself, ready to act.

Before long.

A rumbling sound erupted, followed by shouts and curses.

"How dare you act recklessly in my True Martial Sect!"

"Where did these thieves come from, not knowing life from death!"

"A Gang Essence Realm expert hiding his head and showing his tail, let me, Jiang Baishan, see you!"

The disciples of the True Martial Sect gathered in increasing numbers.

Iron Dragon’s hoarse laughter echoed in the night air:

"I heard that Taoist Longshan is almost dead. I’m here to see if it’s true. Call out Taoist Longshan, you little brats are unworthy."

On the Martial Arts Arena.

Flames converged from all directions.

Iron Dragon stood alone with hands folded, exuding an unstoppable aura. He casually flicked a Gang Qi from his fingers, which shot towards an Inner Sect Disciple with astonishing momentum.

That disciple’s mind went blank, but fortunately, Jiang Baishan intervened in time, swinging a Sword Qi to sever the Gang Qi.

Otherwise, the disciple would have lost his head instantly.

Nevertheless, just being grazed by the Gang Qi left a bone-deep wound on his chest.

The gap between the Inner Essence Realm and the Gang Qi Realm was too vast.

Jiang Baishan’s eyes turned cold as he shouted:

"Everyone retreat, I’ll handle him!"

He moved like lightning, attacking Iron Dragon.

Words clashed constantly as he tested Iron Dragon’s origin, somewhat shocked in his heart, clearly sensing this black-clothed man’s extraordinary strength, seemingly with reserves to spare.

"Why do you disturb my True Martial Sect at night? What is your intention?"

Iron Dragon merely sneered without answering.

Taoist Longshan had still not appeared, seemingly unable to leave his seclusion, which reassured him.

He even mocked:

"Is this the extent of the True Martial Sect’s power, its fame is unearned!"

Jiang Baishan’s face flushed with anger, but he was helpless. Fortunately, Xiong Shi and Ye Qinghe, along with other True Disciples, had arrived.

"Fifth Brother, we’re here to help you!"

Their combined power, as True Disciples, was not trivial.

Adding to the fight, they immediately constrained Iron Dragon, preventing him from harming anyone.

This commotion arose.

On Iron Eagle’s end, there was immediate action.

"No signal arrow, looks like Big Brother is handling it with ease."

Seeing the firelight converge toward the Martial Arts Arena, he chuckled sinisterly and stealthily moved toward the Scripture Pavilion.

Iron Eagle’s body technique was quite advanced, Gang Qi flowing at his toes, easily crossing great distances, effortlessly avoiding disciples heading towards the Martial Arts Arena.

But for some reason.

The deeper he went, the more he felt a sense of unease.

As if something was watching him.

He secretly heightened his vigilance.

"Who goes there, come out!"

Finally, unable to bear the maddening feeling, Iron Eagle swung his hand casually toward a nearby pavilion.

Gang Essence exploded, snapping beams of wood, and the pavilion swayed precariously.

Iron Eagle’s eyes narrowed.

A middle-aged Taoist emerged from the shadows, appearing before him. The Taoist looked unremarkable, carrying a large sword on his back.

This Taoist was none other than Ning Qi in disguise.

The commotion at the Martial Arts Arena had naturally caught his attention, intending to assist, but he did not expect the night attackers to be this cunning, feigning one thing while targeting the Scripture Pavilion, after observing for a moment, he realized this was no weak opponent, definitely a Gang Essence Realm.

"A sneaky person, finally showing yourself."

Iron Eagle sneered.

But inwardly, heightened his guard to the utmost; he found that he couldn’t see through this Taoist.

Ning Qi calmly said:

"I’m afraid it’s you who are the sneaky one, visiting my True Martial Sect at night, what do you want?"

He initially planned to ambush, but the perceptive ability of a Gang Essence Realm was exceptional, giving him no opportunity to get close, this person had purposefully damaged things to force him out.

"I must end this quickly."

The senior brothers at the front were still fighting, Ning Qi could not waste time.

Just as Iron Eagle was about to reply.

He found that the Taoist rushed over without saying a word, completely disregarding convention. His hair stood on end, a sense of crisis enveloped his heart, such menacing power could only belong to another Gang Essence Realm.

"I didn’t expect the True Martial Sect to have such a hidden master too. That Wang has tricked me!"

Iron Eagle cursed inwardly, fully unleashing his Gang Qi.

Fists of Claw Gang blasted through the air, emitting faint eagle screeches in the night sky. Known as Flying Heaven Eagle, he excelled in body technique, but his strength was not lacking. The Heavenly Eagle True Gang he cultivated was exceptionally sharp, each Gang Qi piercing the air with intense momentum.

But the next moment.

His eyes widened in disbelief.

The Taoist across from him did not display any Gang Qi. He merely swung his large sword casually, yet completely shattered all the Gang Qi.

But immediately, Iron Eagle became furious:

"A dignified Gang Essence Realm expert, not revealing Gang Qi, are you trying to toy with me?"

His gaze turned cold, he swooped down like an eagle; the Heavenly Eagle True Gang excelled in close combat. He wanted to show this arrogant Taoist some color.

Ning Qi was internally marvelling at how extraordinary the Dragon Owl Sword was. Seeing the black-clad man across being provoked and rushing over, he couldn’t help but smile inside.

The bothersome part about Gang Essence Realm for him was that Gang Qi could be shot from several dozens of meters away.

If the opponent engaged him from afar.

It would take some effort for him to get close.

But now.

Iron Eagle, ignorant of Ning Qi’s roots, instead rushed over.

It was somewhat akin to waving at King Yama.
