Urban Martial Saint

”Ah?” Wanyan Hongsheng widened his eyes, staring at Wanyan Second Master in astonishment, and said, ”Second brother, are we... are we really going to fight them?”

”The Heaven Earth Man Three Doors is about to open, and the Church people are likely to invade in full force. Before that, I must make them all surrender, only then will we have the strength to deal with the Church.” Wanyan Second Master said coldly, ”We have no more time, we must resolve this matter quickly!”

”But...” Wanyan Hongsheng said anxiously, ”If we fight them head-on, both sides will definitely suffer heavy losses. In such a situation, even if we can defeat them and bring them under our command, the casualties would be severe. Then trying to deal with the Church... that would be more than we could handle!”

”You don’t need to worry about this, I have my own judgment!” Wanyan Second Master said with a calm expression, ”Just send this message to Ye Qing, remember, be high-profile about it. I want to give them pressure, and I also want the whole world to know the strength of our Wanyan family. After a thousand years of accumulation, the time has come, it’s time for our Wanyan family to shine!”

Wanyan Second Master’s words caused Wanyan Hongsheng to also feel excited, but more than anything, he was shocked. Was the Wanyan family still hiding some unknown strength because Wanyan Second Master was so confident?

Watching Wanyan Hongsheng walk away, Wanyan Second Master turned again, returned to his seat, and sat down. After a moment of silence, he slowly looked up and said, ”Come out!”

Following Wanyan Second Master’s words, a person emerged from the darkness behind him. This person was none other than the Third Master of the Knife Saint Sect, who had previously appeared on Mount Tai. He was the Third Sect Master of the Knife Saint Sect and one of the handful of masters there. They originally came to deal with the Wanyan family, but who would have thought, the Knife Saint Sect later started working for the Wanyan family. Also, what does it mean that he’s here at the Wanyan family?

The Third Sect Master of the Knife Saint Sect glanced at Wanyan Second Master, with a hint of killing intent in his eyes. However, he didn’t make a move, and after a moment of silence, he said, ”The World Alliance has already allied with the Twelve Green Halls and the Seven Steering Committees of Hong Alliance, are you confident you can strike against the World Alliance so quickly?”

Wanyan Second Master said coldly, ”Hmph, my Wanyan family has long been confident in victory. It’s just that they hadn’t gathered together yet. Now that the opportunity has come, how could we waste it?”

”Oh?” The Third Sect Master said coldly, ”I’m telling you in advance, my Knife Saint Sect won’t send many people for this matter. Your Wanyan family’s wrong decisions, the consequences will be borne by you, and have nothing to do with our Knife Saint Sect!”

”Hehehe...” Wanyan Second Master laughed softly, sweeping a glance over the Third Sect Master, ”Then I’ll also tell you in advance, if the Knife Saint Sect can’t send enough people, then when our Wanyan family controls everything in the future, what you can receive won’t be much. Our Wanyan family’s consistent view is more work, more gain. If you are unwilling to make sacrifices, then you should gain less, you have no problem with that, right?”

The Third Sect Master’s expression turned cold, but he ultimately didn’t lose his temper. He took a deep breath and said, ”The things you’re plotting, we at the Knife Saint Sect don’t even care about!”

”Oh?” Wanyan Second Master laughed loudly, ”In that case, there’s no need to give you a place in the Heaven Earth Man Three Doors?”

”No need!” The Third Sect Master replied decisively, with a cold laugh, ”Heaven Earth Man Three Doors, I advise you not to enter. Otherwise, you’ll surely regret it!”

”Oh?” Wanyan Second Master laughed again, ”I rather want to see how we would regret! Alright, let’s not talk about idle things. Shijia and Wuji are both in Shenchuan City, these two, the Knife Saint Sect will have to deal with them for me, as we agreed before. The Buddhist and Taoist people will be handled by the Knife Saint Sect, is there any problem with this?”

”No problem!” The Third Sect Master answered very bluntly, seeming to not take Shijia or Wuji seriously at all.

Wanyan Second Master looked up at the Third Sect Master, not knowing what he was pondering. After a long while, he finally spoke, ”Actually, I’ve always been curious, what agreement has your Knife Saint Sect made with Shijia Wuji? Why are Shijia and Wuji somewhat intimidated by your Knife Saint Sect?”

If Ye Qing were here to hear this, he would certainly be shocked. Shijia and Wuji actually fear the Knife Saint Sect? How is that possible? Furthermore, what does it mean that Wanyan Second Master said Shijia and Wuji made an agreement with the Knife Saint Sect? Why would Shijia and Wuji make an agreement with them?

”This is a matter for our Knife Saint Sect, it’s not your concern!” The Third Sect Master spared no face, saying coldly, ”If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back and find someone to help. Five days later, if a war breaks out, we can help you block Shijia Wuji. But regarding the others, that’s none of our concern!”

Wanyan Second Master laughed, ”Rest assured, our Wanyan family always keeps our word. As long as you block Shijia and Wuji, everything else is ours!”

The Third Sect Master snorted coldly, said nothing more, and turned to leave Wanyan Second Master’s room. Watching the Third Sect Master depart, Wanyan Second Master finally laughed coldly. He lightly snapped his fingers, and another person walked out from the darkness. This person was small in stature, ugly in appearance, and covered in sticky blood, looking extremely disgusting.

If you looked closely, you would definitely recognize that this person was once the number one sorcerer of Nanyang, the Corpse Ghost Dragon. His appearance had not changed much, but his eyes seemed to have lost their spirit, the whole person like a walking corpse, standing behind Wanyan Second Master, with none of the demeanor of being the top master in the past.

”Although The Immortal Lord mysteriously disappeared, you remain!” Wanyan Second Master stood up, smiling lightly at the Corpse Ghost Dragon, ”With you around, the world is always under control. Five days from now, you must put on a good show for me, don’t disappoint me!”

It’s unclear whether the Corpse Ghost Dragon understood Wanyan Second Master’s words, as he just stood there like a wooden person.

Wanyan Second Master continuously laughed, slowly walking to the window, gazing at the outside sky. With both hands behind his back, he was filled with confidence, as if the world was already within his grasp.

——————————————————————————————

In Shenchuan City, Ye Qing received the message sent by Wanyan Hongsheng and immediately gathered the people of the Twelve Green Halls and the Seven Steering Committees of the Hong Alliance for a discussion. The message from the Wanyan family was a stark contrast to their usual low-key demeanor, now becoming sharp and aggressive, which was truly surprising. However, this also made people more suspicious of the Wanyan family’s strength. If they didn’t have absolute strength, how could they send such a message to threaten everyone in Shenchuan City?

After everyone had read the Wanyan family’s message, Ye Qing then turned to the crowd and said, ”What are your thoughts on this matter?”

”What else can we think, fight them!” Wu Xiuming said loudly. After his strength increased later on, his tone also became more forceful.

Indeed, these words received support from everyone, with a unanimous nod from the crowd. In fact, it was just so, everyone had united precisely to counter the Wanyan family. Now that the Wanyan family was so arrogant, everyone naturally felt even more indignant, making this battle inevitable.

”If the Wanyan family can say such words, I think they must be prepared!” Shen Tianjun slightly frowned, saying in a deep voice, ”In this battle, if we fight head-on, I’m afraid our chances of winning are not great!”

”So, should we not fight?” an Elder asked in a deep voice.

”Fight we must, but we should also consider strategy.” Helian Tiehua glanced at the nearby Fu Qingping, Shijia, and Wuji, and said, ”If the Wanyan family has a big mouth like this, it means they will definitely send beyond peerless masters to battle. And now, the three elders are all in Shenchuan City; they should be aware of this. In this scenario, they still dare to come over and threaten us, so we must think this matter through. What exactly do they rely on to speak such big words?”

Everyone looked at Helian Tiehua, and one person said in a deep voice, ”You mean, the other side will send more beyond peerless masters?”

”I’m afraid so!” Helian Tiehua said, ”The Wanyan family has a Corpse Ghost Dragon and an Immortal Lord. How many beyond peerless masters the Knife Saint Sect has, we still don’t know, but it certainly won’t be few. If they send all beyond peerless masters to attack, then this battle cannot be fought!”

Everyone was also alarmed, as this matter was indeed the most troublesome. It wasn’t scary if the opponent sent many people, but if they sent many beyond peerless masters, that would be unmanageable. Beyond peerless masters, you simply cannot fight against that!

At this moment, Shijia unexpectedly slammed the table and said, ”No matter how many beyond peerless masters they send, the three of us will block them!”

Hearing this, everyone felt reassured, yet also somewhat surprised. Shijia and his group were only three people, even against one Corpse Ghost Dragon, they would have a hard time. If the opponent sent several beyond peerless masters, how could they manage to intercept them?

”We’ll handle the beyond peerless masters, so you don’t need to worry about that,” Wuji also nodded and added, ”The battle among the peak masters will hinge on your arrangements. In this aspect, we are powerless!”

Everyone exchanged glances. Helian Tiehua spoke first, saying, ”If the three elders can block the beyond peerless masters, then there is not much else to worry about. With our three major alliances united, this battle may not be a loss!”

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement. What they were concerned about were the beyond peerless masters, whereas the peak masters were not much of a concern. After all, there were many peak masters in Shenchuan City. When the fight truly happens, the outcome is still uncertain.
