Scum Of The Demonic Sect

Chapter Sixty-Nine: Public Feud

"Junior Brother Lin, we are now allies with Heavenly Sword Mountain, Junior Brother Lin, you'd better not make trouble anymore!" Wu Hongfei couldn't help but shout at this moment.

Lin Haoming knew that Wu Hongfei would definitely jump out, and that he had only spoken now was already quite restrained.

Facing this person who had almost killed him, Lin Haoming didn't immediately pounce on him and fight him to the death. Instead, he smiled slightly and said, "Senior Brother Wu, you're just like this woman, someone I must kill. You want to help him, very good!"

"How dare you speak to me like that?" Wu Hongfei was completely enraged by Lin Haoming's threat.

"You were no match for Fayuan and were almost killed by him. When you struck him with your palm, we were mortal enemies. Senior Brother Wang, you witnessed it yourself. Even if I killed him, I don't think the sect would blame me!" Lin Haoming said arrogantly.

"That's right. I can swear at this moment that Senior Brother Wu was indeed no match for Fayuan and, in order to escape, struck Junior Brother Lin with his palm!" Wang Chen said with certainty.

He didn't have a good impression of Wu Hongfei either. Moreover, if he helped Lin Haoming today, and Lin Haoming escaped, he should be able to get a Foundation Establishment Pill. If he went along with Wu Hongfei, he probably wouldn't have that opportunity.

Wu Hongfei was furious at being exposed like this in public. His face flushed red, and he glared at Lin Haoming, wanting to tear him to pieces. However, he seemed unable to bring himself to attack a fellow disciple at this moment.

Hearing this, Qiao Chun felt a pang of regret. Such a situation was the same for the disciples of the Demonic Sect, as well as those from Heavenly Sword Mountain or Vajra Temple. As long as it wasn't exposed publicly, everything was fine. But now, it was tantamount to slapping Wu Hongfei in the face, effectively splitting his Blood Refining Sect.

Hu Xiangzhen, observing Qiao Chun's expression, sneered inwardly. Similarly, Fa Kong felt that Lin Haoming's appearance was a great help; otherwise, facing two sects simultaneously would have been truly difficult.

But at this moment, Lin Haoming suddenly changed his tone, saying, "Although I have two people I must kill here, for the sake of the overall situation, as long as one of them doesn't attack me, I won't attack him for the time being. After all, the sect's affairs are more important right now!"

"Junior Brother Lin, it's good that you say that!" Seeing that Lin Haoming wasn't going to act like a madman and completely destroy the situation, Qiao Chun felt somewhat relieved and looked at Wu Hongfei.

Wu Hongfei knew Qiao Chun wanted an answer from him, and under these circumstances, he could only suppress his anger and say, "I, Wu, will not let personal matters interfere with the sect's affairs!"

Seeing that both had spoken, Qiao Chun breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Haoming, however, interjected, "Everyone, if we engage in a direct melee, no one knows what the outcome will be. We've already paid such a high price; I think none of you want to die here. Since that's the case, I don't think we need to join forces with anyone, lest we be stabbed in the back at the last minute. How about we settle things with a direct duel?"

Lin Haoming's words were actually quite reasonable. The disciples of the three sects certainly didn't want to die here in vain, and now that someone had suggested a better method, they naturally appreciated it.

At the same time he proposed this method, Lin Haoming also felt more than a dozen streams of merit being absorbed by the Merit Bead.

Although each stream of merit was small, they added up to form a complete small merit.

Lin Haoming was quite satisfied to have earned a small amount of merit with just a few words. He also realized that many people here were actually afraid of death; otherwise, no one would feel grateful to him.

“No!” Hu Xiangzhen immediately objected shortly after Lin Haoming finished speaking.

She had the most people, and if they were to fight, her subordinates wouldn't be as strong as the opponent's, putting her at a disadvantage, especially since her own condition wasn't good either!

Seeing her objection, the people from Vajra Temple and Blood Refining Sect felt more inclined to agree.

The disciples of Heavenly Sword Mountain had the most people here, and their combined strength was the strongest. Having a way to weaken their power was naturally the best option.

“I agree with Benefactor Lin’s idea. Benefactor Qiao, what do you think?” Fakong was the first to speak up.

The Blood Refining Sect had the fewest people, but they had many experts. At least Qiao Chun felt that with himself and Wu Hongfei present, they already had a significant advantage.

“Good, I agree too. Fairy Hu, I also think this is a good idea!” Qiao Chun agreed after thinking for a moment.

His agreement completely shattered the alliance they had just made, infuriating Hu Xiangzhen. However, now she was isolated, and couldn't act rashly. Looking at her own group, she said directly, "A competition is fine, but each sect must send ten people!"

"Ten people, Fairy Hu, how about twenty? We'll forfeit one match!" Since becoming fellow disciples was impossible, Qiao Chun naturally wanted to secure every advantage.

"Benefactor Qiao is right, ten matches are too many, five matches how about!" Fa Kong cut it in half.

Seeing that the two sides were completely aligned, Hu Xiangzhen was also annoyed. Her eyes darted around, and she said, "Why don't you just decide the winner in one match? Are we all just going to stand here and watch? If that's the case, let's have a free-for-all! Whoever survives gets the top-grade spirit stones!"

Hu Xiangzhen was completely throwing a tantrum, and she did indeed have more people. Just as she spoke, five more disciples from Heavenly Sword Mountain arrived at her side.

Lin Haoming watched them arrive, a sense of curiosity welling up within him.

Every time he encountered this woman, she was always surrounded by a large group of people. It seemed she could gather a large number of disciples in a very short time, no matter where she was.

Lin Haoming even suspected she possessed some means to bring her own disciples to her side.

Thinking of this, Lin Haoming felt a headache coming on. If that were true, the sheer number of people from Tianjian Mountain would make things difficult.

With the arrival of more people from Tianjian Mountain, their numbers had exceeded forty. The combined forces of the Blood Refining Sect and the Vajra Temple only outnumbered them by three. This was truly a problem.

"How about this," Wu Hongfei suddenly suggested, "each sect sends ten people. If one wins, they can continue challenging each other until all ten members of one sect are defeated. To prevent them from targeting a single sect, the opponents must change sects each time, until one sect is completely wiped out!" Wu Hongfei's suggestion stemmed from his confidence in the Blood Refining Sect's strength, given his and Qiao Chun's presence.

At the Vajra Temple, Fakong, after reviewing Fayuan's proposal, agreed, saying, "This suggestion is acceptable!"

Hu Xiangzhen, feeling disadvantaged by this plan, added, "Ten people are too few. At least fifteen are needed, and the competition must be based solely on genuine skill. No pills or talismans are allowed!" (The novel *The Scoundrels of the Demonic Sect* will have more fresh content on its official WeChat platform, along with a 100% chance to win a prize!
