Lord Shadow

They must have gone into a lot of trouble to disguise themselves and hides themselves before they could finally reveal themselves today.

Azief could even sense a few people who have boundless internal energy.

Is this the so called grandmaster level martial artist? Azief thought.

No, he shakes his own head. It is close but it is not yet that level.

‘A pity that there is no grandmaster. I am wondering how powerful they are’ The Crippled Devil has already gone out of the hut and whispers the things he heard to his sworn brother.

The other Devils of Han nodded and they then quickly make way, leaving XI Feng on top of the stone platform.

They did not worry because the Sword Immortal had already said that they do not need to interfere.

They know that this is the moment the hidden immortal of the Five Element Mountain would show himself to the world.

Tukhla also notices the movement of the Three Devils of Han. He immediately pinches the thighs of Ulhak who is engrossed in looking at the fight

‘They are moving. I found them very suspicious. We need to shadow them’ Ulhak grunted but he quickly gets up. As the Three Devils of Han pick a spot where they are safe and could see the platform, they hide themselves there.

Not far away from them squatting and hiding behind a thick bush is Tukhla and Ulhak.

Tukhla did not know why the Three Devils suddenly went away from the hut but he found it suspicious so he follows them.

While this is happening, the other martial artist is still looking at the battle between Xi Feng and some member of the orthodox sect members.

The spies of the imperial dynasties in both sects also notices that the order to move has come. They were informed by some of the spies that went down and confirmed the arrival of the army with the captains of the army below the mountain.

The spies in the heterodox sect informed the other members of the imperial martial artist and the same thing is happening on the orthodox sect side.

Right now, the people outside the hut did not realize that they are surrounded now. Azief could sense all of this through his connection with the mountain.

Now, he could guess some thing

Thinking about it, it is quite simple. He knows now who was the one that scheme against his disciple. The Imperial dynasties and the Martial Alliance in Yong.

And it must have to do with the Old Dragon Li or the Old Immortal Tian since they seem to knows something. Maybe it is a secret or maybe it is something else.

But Azief don’t care about all that.

But why would the imperial dynasty meddle with the matters of the martial arts world?

‘It is simple’ Azief thought as he caressed the sword on his lap

Because they wanted control. Azief could understand that. The imperial family should control all under heaven but the martial arts world has always operated with their own rules and their own set of laws.

Some of them are even so powerful that they could sneak into the imperial palace and take the heads of these emperors.

How could they would be willing to let themselves always be lawless like that?

Azief could understand the mentality of this world ruled by imperial laws and influenced by imperial majesty

All these martial artists live like outlaws and while some of them swore fealty to the imperial court the other prefer a more carefree lifestyle

Maybe both the imperial dynasty cooperated with each other and collaborated to control the martial arts world.

Maybe that is the secret that the Old Immortal and Old Dragon Li knew and why they were so determined to harm Xi Feng and know the location of Old Dragon Li.

Maybe they don’t want those two grandmasters telling the whole world about it and they thought they could get to those grandmasters through Xi Feng

But Xi Feng has proven to become an even more troublesome pest than they initially thought and they might have decided to do away with him and at the same time killing all of these people here on top of this mountain

since this place is far away from the south, these people scheming in the dark could throw the blame to both the orthodox and the heterodox sect members

Azief could guess what they would do.

They would kill all of the people on top of the mountaintop, whether they come from the orthodox sect or the heterodox sect.

Then they would spread rumors and those spies in the heterodox and orthodox sect would pretend to become the survivor of the great massacre.

The spies of the heterodox sect would accuse the orthodox sect of massacring their people and the orthodox sect spies would claim that it was the heterodox sect that planned the massacre and kill their members.

Some people might see through the lies, but the massacre of this people is meant to invoke an emotional response and not a rational one.

In such an emotionally charged atmosphere, reason would not pierce through. And then the only conclusion that both sect would achieve is war.

The imperial dynasties are trying to start the war between the heterodox sect and the orthodox sect and when they finished fighting each other, they would come swooshing down like vultures to pick them all one by one and unite all the martial arts world under the imperial dynasty.

Of course this is only his speculation but he did not think that it is wrong.

Azief did not care even if they have such plans. What he cares, that they have schemed against his disciple.

And this is a good opportunity to reveal himself to the word. He smiles a bit as he grips the hilt of the sword.

Today, is the day that he and his disciple will shock the world. Outside his hut, Xi Feng is fighting with Zhu Yao
