My Five Bigshot Seniors: I am The Most Coddled Junior!-Chapter 305 - 173: The Great Battle Between Righteous and Demonic Sects (Part 1) [Update 2]

Chapter 305: Chapter 173: The Great Battle Between Righteous and Demonic Sects (Part 1) [Update 2]

Upon hearing Wen Guiyun’s words, Gu Qingqing’s eyes lit up, and she immediately became excited.

"Disciple obeys the order, I’ll go and meet them properly right away." He bowed to Wen Guiyun, then led the people down the city wall.

A Demon Cultivator who had infiltrated Yuqiu Pass was searching around for something when he suddenly felt the atmosphere around him was off. He turned around and saw four or five people behind him. Because of the backlight, he couldn’t see their faces clearly; he could only guess from one person’s petite stature that she might be a woman. But no matter what these people looked like, they were definitely not on his side.

He was startled and was about to turn and run when a piece of White Silk suddenly attacked from behind, wrapping around his waist, binding him, and stopping his escape. Then he felt a tightness around his waist as the White Silk pulled his body backward.

"Want to run? Did you ask the Mixed Immortal Silk in my hand?" Gu Qingqing looked at the man being pulled over, coldly snorting.

With a powerful fling, the man was thrown out, and the people who came with Gu Qingqing immediately surrounded the man.

The man’s cultivation was merely Ninth Grade, while apart from Gu Qingqing, who was Ninth Grade Peak, the other four were all Ninth Grade, making it very easy to deal with a Ninth Grade man.

Gu Qingqing watched from the side to prevent the man from escaping while the other four besieged the man. Soon, the man had numerous wounds on his body, was unable to resist the four, and was directly killed. Gu Qingqing wouldn’t be merciful to these ill-intentioned Demon Path people.

After instructing one of the disciples to properly store the man’s corpse, Gu Qingqing led the group to find the next target.

The group of infiltrators wearing black robes at Yuqiu Pass totaled ten. In the next half an hour, they were killed one by one by Gu Qingqing and her group. Under the cover of darkness, Gu Qingqing directly threw these corpses near the Demon army’s camp.

After dealing with these intruders, Gu Qingqing and her team returned to Yuqiu Pass and slept soundly.

Early the next day, the Demonic camp was disrupted by a scream. It turned out someone had discovered the corpses of the slain Demon Path people, which were then brought into the tent where Gong Tianhai and others were holding a meeting.

Looking at the ten corpses on the ground, everyone’s faces in the tent didn’t look good.

Among them were disciples from Netherworld Palace, disciples from the Seven Fiends Sect, and disciples from the Ten Thousand Demon Sect. As for the Blood Sect, having just lost ten elite disciples the previous day, they didn’t send anyone out.

"Bang!"

Gong Tianhai slammed his palm on the table, directly shattering it. He seemed unaware, his face gloomy. "The Righteous Path has gone too far!"

Placing these corpses outside their Demonic camp was an attempt to warn the Demon path against acting rashly. Gong Tianhai was very dissatisfied with how Wen Guiyun and the others handled it!

"They want to warn us this way, what a dream!" Helian Cheng said grimly. Although the disciples killed weren’t particularly strong within their sect, they were still disciples who had used many resources. Helian Cheng was very unhappy about it.

"Brother Gong, we can’t keep stalling like this with the Righteous Path. Why not just attack directly? Our goal is to capture the Righteous Path, why negotiate with them? If this continues, we’ll lose even more disciples!" Wan Qi looked at his sect’s dead disciples on the ground and suggested to Gong Tianhai.

"I also think we shouldn’t fight those Righteous Path people one battle at a time. Let’s just attack them all at once. The few of us can face off directly with those Righteous Path Sect Leaders, sparing us from being stabbed in the heart by such actions," said Li Feng. He had wanted to suggest this yesterday, but seeing that the other three weren’t inclined, he’d refrained. But now things were different; besides Gong Tianhai, both Helian Cheng and Wan Qi clearly expressed dissatisfaction with the current method, so naturally, he would bring it up too.

Gong Tianhai did not speak immediately. Instead, he looked at the three, saw their eager expressions, thought for a moment, and finally nodded.

Though reluctant to admit it, he no longer had the confidence he initially had in defeating the Righteous Path!

"Let’s discuss how we should attack then." He sat back down, took a sip of tea, and said.

The other three had no objections and immediately began discussing enthusiastically.

...

On the Righteous Path side, Wen Guiyun was still thinking Gong Tianhai and the others would taunt them like they did yesterday and then demand a fight with some disciples. But who knew the Demon army would come straight over, not even bothering with the idle talk before starting.

With Sect Masters Li Feng, Gong Tianhai, Helian Cheng, and Wan Qi leading the attack on Yuqiu Pass directly, all sorts of attacks and Magic Artifact glows appeared in the sky at once, creating a dazzling spectacle.

When Nan Hua first arrived at Yuqiu Pass, he set up arrays throughout the entire pass, and even spent two days modifying the original City Defense Array, boosting it from a mere Ninth Grade to something infinitely close to an Immortal Grade, significantly raising its level.

After Gong Tianhai and his group launched their attack, Nan Hua immediately activated the City Defense Array of Yuqiu Pass from atop the city wall. A green light shield enveloped the entire pass, and the attacks that fell upon it only caused it to shake slightly, without breaking.

"Why did the Demon Path suddenly launch an attack?" Gu Qingqing stood beside Wen Guiyun, asking with some confusion.

"It’s actually better this way. An all-out war can save us a lot of time," Wen Guiyun replied with a smile, not dwelling on the reason.

Although wearing down the Demon Path gradually, like yesterday, was a good method, Wen Guiyun had also considered the current possibility of an all-out attack by the Demon Path. Therefore, he was not at all flustered now, especially with the improved City Defense Array by Nan Hua, leaving Wen Guiyun even more composed.

He turned to look at Jun Yutian and Bai Guanlin, "How about it? Want to test the power of Gong Tianhai and his group? See if they’ve improved over the years?"

Jun Yutian raised an eyebrow, glanced at Gong Tianhai and the others outside the City Defense Array, and his lips curled slightly, "Of course, I haven’t had any action for quite a while."

With their level of cultivation, encountering a worthy opponent was quite rare, so Jun Yutian had no intention of letting this opportunity slip by.

"Same here, I wonder if Helian Cheng and the others have the same level of cultivation as before," Bai Guanlin’s smile was gentle, but the bright gleam in his eyes was undeniable.

The three exchanged glances and smiled, then exited the City Defense Array to confront Gong Tianhai and his followers.

With them taking the lead, Si Lin and others also exited the City Defense Array, engaging in battle with the Demon Path elders and disciples.

Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu, along with their respective teams, also left the City Defense Array. Upon exiting, Gu Qingqing immediately noticed Gong He, dressed in a purple Brocade Robe, and was slightly surprised, instantly understanding why she had never liked being around Lu Ying, who used Gong He’s alias. It turned out they were fundamentally from different paths!

Jun Wu, standing beside Gu Qingqing, also spotted Gong He and a flicker of murderous intent crossed his eyes. He had never liked this man who always approached Gu Qingqing, and upon discovering Gong He was from the Demon Path, he found it justifiable to eliminate him!

On the other side, Gong He too noticed Gu Qingqing and her group. A shadow flickered in his eyes as he headed directly towards Gu Qingqing.

Last time, not being able to take Gu Qingqing away always irked him, and he hadn’t let go of the desire to claim her as his wife. Now seeing her again, he still hadn’t given up on this idea, and approached intending to capture Gu Qingqing.

As Gu Qingqing prepared to fight back, Jun Wu stepped in front of her.

"Geng Geng, leave this guy to me, you handle the other Demon Path disciples," Jun Wu said gently to Gu Qingqing while pushing back Gong He with his scimitar.

Gu Qingqing thought for a moment. She hadn’t liked Gong He much to begin with, so it was all the better if Jun Wu wanted to deal with him. She quickly nodded, "Be careful."

After advising Jun Wu, Gu Qingqing turned and left to seek out other Demon Path disciples.

Jun Wu watched Gu Qingqing leave before turning his attention back to Gong He. Gong He was still struggling against Jun Wu’s scimitar, which blocked his path. Seeing Gu Qingqing leave, Gong He attempted to leave as well, but the scimitar continued to block him, forcing him to focus on Jun Wu.

"Even if you’re by her side now, I’ll find a way to take her back. She will definitely be mine in the end!" Gong He declared viciously as he faced Jun Wu.

"Oh? I fear you won’t live to try!" Jun Wu replied coldly, a smirk forming on his lips.

Gong He’s expression changed in dissatisfaction with Jun Wu’s words. He forcefully pushed aside the scimitar in front of him and thrust his own sword at Jun Wu.

"Clang!"

The scimitar, just tossed aside, blocked the sword aiming at Jun Wu, forcing Gong He to step back a couple of steps and glare at Jun Wu fiercely before launching another attack.

Jun Wu extended his hand, and the scimitar instantly returned to his grip. Wielding it, he swept it horizontally, sending a silver blade light flying towards Gong He. He continued to swing the scimitar in quick succession, sending multiple beams of silver light at Gong He, surrounding him.

Gong He blocked the first blade light and, facing the others surrounding him, grit his teeth and held his treasure sword upright before his chest. He ran his fingertip over the sword, letting a drop of blood seep into it. The originally silver treasure sword suddenly turned red, appearing extremely eerie.
