Chapter 377: Chapter 334: Devouring Blood Bodhi Frenziedly!_2 Chapter 377: Chapter 334: Devouring Blood Bodhi Frenziedly!_2 Completely blood-red!

The aura of Chen Yuan’s cultivation also began to gradually climb, in a way that was distinctly perceptible.

It was like an experience bar that kept on rising.

After successfully refining the first Blood Bodhi, Chen Yuan then started to consume the second, the third…

…

…

And just as Chen Yuan was enhancing his cultivation strength by consuming the Blood Bodhi, at this moment, many powers within Tangshan Prefecture had finally started their conspiracy against Chen Yuan.

Previously, Chen Yuan’s actions were too swift and too unpredictable, which is why the powers of the martial world within Tangshan Prefecture had not revealed any clear intentions over the past several days.

But that was definitely not because they were afraid.

It was because they were watching, watching Chen Yuan’s moves, observing his style of conduct, investigating his background…

They were plotting before acting!

The powers of the Jianghu in Tangshan Prefecture were renowned in Qingzhou for being the most explosive and chaotic, with the number of Martial Artists also being much stronger than other states; there were nearly ten powers alone that had Reach Profound Martial Artists in command.

It was they who controlled the vast majority of resources within Tangshan Prefecture.

Now that Chen Yuan wanted to take these things back, it was, of course, impossible. As the saying goes, cutting off someone’s means of wealth is like killing their parents, and they absolutely would not tolerate Chen Yuan’s presence.

As for the alliance and marriage with the Vegetable Knife Gang, it had already broken apart the moment Shen Yongzhi died.

They certainly wouldn’t do anything for the sake of a dead man.

Within the grand hall of the Blood Saber Sect, which boasted the strongest comprehensive strength in Tangshan Prefecture…

Sat ten Reach Profound Martial Artists from top to bottom.

They were the essence of the entire martial world of Tangshan Prefecture, whether they were Clan Leaders, Sect Masters, or Elders; in short, not a single one was simple. Originally, there were two more seats here.

Song Jingang and Shen Yongzhi, but they had already been replaced by others.

Sitting at the top was an elderly man dressed in red robes, with white hair and a youthful face, his expression composed, exuding an imposing presence without anger, his cultivation was also the strongest among them all.

Reach Profound Peak!

The old man was named Lin Zhidong, the Supreme Elder of the Blood Saber Sect, addressed respectfully as Elder Lin by the martial artists of Tangshan. Furthermore, the strength of the Blood Saber Sect was the greatest in Tangshan.

Aside from him, there was also a Sect Master at the Reach Profound Middle Stage.

Even Shen Yongzhi wouldn’t dare to be too disrespectful toward him.

“Elder Lin, what do you think we should do about this Chen Yuan?”

A middle-aged man sitting on the lower left asked solemnly.

As soon as he spoke, the originally somewhat silent grand hall began to buzz with noise, with several Reach Profound Martial Artists turning their gazes toward Lin Zhidong.

Lin Zhidong slowly lifted his hand, stroking his beard, his eyes flickering,

“Chen Yuan is not someone we can easily deal with, with Sword God Jiang He of the Qingzhou’s Golden Envoy here, if we directly eliminate Chen Yuan, it will certainly enrage him, causing a disaster for our martial community in Tangshan.

The presence within the top ten of the Fengyun List is too horrific; it’s a level we look up to.”

In Lin Zhidong’s voice was full of vigor, but no one could mistake the fear he held for Jiang He.

“Are we to sit by and watch as Chen Yuan gradually devours us all?” someone muttered in a grim tone.

Anyone who wasn’t a fool could see Chen Yuan’s intention; if they didn’t make a move, Chen Yuan certainly would.

“Yes, besides, this Chen Yuan’s strength is too formidable, even Shen Yongzhi was killed by him.”

“His manner of doing things is equally ruthless, always ensuring to eradicate the roots. As far as I know, the entire Shen Family has already been annihilated.” someone said with lingering fear.

This kind of ruthless method was not common.

“When did I say we should just watch Chen Yuan?” Lin Zhidong snorted coldly,

“We gather here today to discuss how to deal with Chen Yuan, but we must not act too recklessly.”

“What does Elder Lin mean?”

Someone asked thoughtfully.

“According to the rules of Jianghu, powerful people from the Upper Realm seldom interfere in conflicts among those of the same realm. If we hold the moral high ground, and give Chen Yuan a reputation of being ferocious and brutal, even if we move against him, there won’t be any problems,

Of course, the premise is not to endanger Chen Yuan’s life, just leave him barely alive to roll out of Tangshan.”

“That way, it’s both reasonable and not excessively cruel. Even if Jiang He is dissatisfied, he will probably have to restrain himself. I don’t believe that for the sake of Chen Yuan, he would wipe us all clean, right?”

Lin Zhidong spoke in a grave tone.

Beings like Jiang He seldom take action themselves. Unless Tangshan Prefecture dares to openly rebel, they usually send the Green Envoy to handle matters.

That’s what happened when Chen Yuan came to Tangshan.

As for a Golden Envoy of a state, his gaze covers the entire territory. It would be beneath his dignity to focus solely on them.

“Is this… feasible?”

Some still felt it wasn’t safe; in such a scenario, they’d be entirely at the mercy of others. What if Jiang He truly didn’t care and took action against them?

Then, whom would they turn to for justice?

After all, one only has a single life!

“Indeed, we must think thrice before acting.”

The people below chorused in agreement.

Yet, there were others who voiced different opinions, saying:

“Elder Lin, fellow Sect Leaders, it’s true that Chen Yuan has a background, but we are not rootless duckweeds.”

“What do you mean?”

“Yeah, Brother Jia, stop beating around the bush.”

The man smiled and said:

“Do you not know where most of the resources produced within Tangshan Prefecture end up?”

“You mean… Shushan and Liangshan Lake?”

Someone exclaimed in surprise.

The location of Tangshan Prefecture is excellent, bordering Shuzhou and Blood State. Naturally, the three states exchange quite a bit, and some of their resources end up in Blood State and Shuzhou.

Among these, the ones that absorbed the most were the eight hundred Li Liangshan Water Village and the strongest Immortal Sect of Shu State, the Shushan Sword Sect.

“Sect Master Jia’s words coincide with what I thought,” Lin Zhidong said as he slowly stood up and spoke in a deep voice:

“We have supplied them with Spirit Grass and Spiritual Objects for so long. Although it’s a matter of mutual need, it has formed a latent relationship. If we were to be destroyed, who would scour the Tangshan mountains for Spirit Grass?

Who would transfer goods from other state prefectures for them? Although there are certainly other channels besides Tangshan, we are definitely an important piece in the game.”

This statement, unpalatable as it was, made sense, and nobody present voiced any objections. Sometimes, even wishing to be a pawn required enough qualification.

Lin Zhidong gazed into the distance and continued:

“Asking them to confront Chen Yuan and offend Jiang He would surely seem to them a loss not worth taking, but if it were to speak well on our behalf and offset some of the pressure, I believe they would still do it.

However, the premise is that we need to cede even more benefits.”

The hall fell silent. Everyone was weighing Lin Zhidong’s words. After a long time, they reached a consensus. Compared to the trouble of eliminating Chen Yuan, they were willing to give up a portion of their profits.

“Very well, each of you is astute and perceptive, far beyond the average. A small loss in profits can be tolerated if it means stability,” Lin Zhidong nodded in satisfaction.

As long as the people of Jianghu in Tangshan unite, what could Chen Yuan do? He’d be dead in no time.

“But what should we do now?” someone asked in a solemn voice.

Lin Zhidong smiled, “You flatter me by letting me take the lead. Naturally, I have some strategies. First, we spread Chen Yuan’s infamy, even to other state prefectures, which isn’t difficult for us.

Second, we actually have a potential ally who probably hates Chen Yuan to the core as well.”

“Are you talking about… No-Life Sect?” someone asked with a sharp gaze.

“Exactly. The few blood sacrifices conducted by No-Life Sect in Tangshan Prefecture are well known to many of you, and some are even implicated,” Lin Zhidong said, and several faces changed color at his words.

“Song Jingang was an important piece placed in Tangshan Prefecture by No-Life Sect. He could cover up the blood sacrifices. Now that he’s been killed by Chen Yuan, do you think they’ll just let it go?

They’re probably plotting how to kill Chen Yuan right now.”

“In fact, we might not even need to act personally to eradicate this man.”

“But… the people from No-Life Sect are elusive. Are we going to wait for them?”

“The acts of No-Life Sect’s people are ruthless and unpredictable. Involving ourselves too much with them is not beneficial for us. However, Chen Yuan is a common enemy to both of us,

and only by eliminating him can we have peace of mind.”

The second update will be this afternoon, I need to plot the storyline.
