Chapter 1554: This is a Set-Up!


    Not good!


    Poison Spirit, Di Linger, and Yi Chan all eximed silently at the same time. Poison Spirit had forgotten something: a King-Ranked guardian was just in the vicinity.


    Although this guardians responsibility was in protecting the Teleportation Formation and did not bother with anything else, Poison Spirit had behaved very sneakily and had disturbed the restrictions protecting the mountain; how could this guardian not be rmed?


    Sensing Ren Tianfan, Little Eagle King, and countless powerful divine senses sweeping by, Poison Spirit cried out bitterly inside. In a sh of light, Poison Spirits appearance returned to normal. He cupped his hands and said, Poison Spirit pays his respects to everyone. Please continue with your extermination mission; I am but passing by


    Since he had been exposed, everyones divine senses would easily be able to see through his disguise. Poison Spirit decided to be forthright and reveal his own identity. After the battle in the Sword Emanations Mystic Realm, his reputation had grown; and his status was now rather significant. By right, Ren Tianfan shouldnt make things too difficult for him, right?


    He was mistaken.


    A killing aura shed around Ren Tianfans body as he shot forward like a sharp sword, stopping ten thousand feet from Poison Spirit. At the same time, ten of the Titled Battle God bodyguards also moved and surrounded Poison Spirit. Ren Tianfan locked onto Poison Spirit and said, Poison Spirit, how dare you furtively hide within my Heaven-Splitting Army? Speak, what designs do you have?


    Mo Huaisang andpany were all very nervous and anxious; no one dared to move. Especially Di Linger, who knew the Demon-Buster Armys militaryws very well, was aware of the trouble that they were in if Ren Tianfan wanted to pursue this matter.


    Poison Spirit was expressionless. He shrugged his shoulders and said, Please do not be mistaken, Lord Ren. I just want to enter the Purgatory Mystic Realm to check something out. Coincidentally, your Heaven-Splitting Army hade here to exterminate Lunar Beasts. Hence, I did not report to the Internal Affairs Court but had followed you guys here. Lord Ren, this is but a small matter; is there a need to blow it up?


    The Demon-Buster Armys militaryws were very harsh. Just as Heavenly King Wu had said, these rules were made by men. If one reached a certain level of attainment and strength, breaking the rules would not bring with it so many consequences. Logically, based on Poison Spirits identity and status, breaking a small rule should not bring about too severe a consequence.


    Who knew that Ren Tianfan actually became enraged? He snorted heavily and said, Poison Spirit, you still want to deny? Will you say the truth or not? Why have you infiltrated my army? Who do you want to assassinate? If you do not speak the truth, do not me me for being heartless and killing you on the spot!


    Buzz!


    The ten Titled Battle God soldiers surrounding Poison Spirit held up their weapons as the weapons shone with light as if getting ready to attack a formidable enemy. A glistening long saber also appeared in Ren Tianfans hand; he was about to strike.


    Kill me?


    Poison Spirits face grew serious. Something was amiss. Ren Tianfan wanted to kill him over such a small matter? Even if he had indeed broken the rules, he would at most be taken down and sent to the Military Law Court to be sentenced, right? How could he be killed on the spot?


    Since things had already deteriorated to this extent, Poison Spirit had no choice but to grit his teeth and say, Lord Ren, if I really want to assassinate someone, besides the Little Eagle King; who else could block my attack? To put things inly, if I really wanted to assassinate you, you would already be dead! I really havee here just to investigate some matters. After I am done with my investigation, I will head to the Military Law Court to receive my punishment. Is that alright?


    Hahahaha!


    Poison Spirits arrogant words utterly infuriated Ren Tianfan. He smiled coldly as he said, Good, good, good. I want to see how you are nning on assassinating me? There is no need for you to go and receive your punishment; I will send you to the Military Law Court immediately. Allmanders, listen up! Take down Poison Spirit! If he dares to resist, kill him!


    Sh*t


    Mo Huaisang andpanys hearts utterly sank. Just at this moment, a soldier near to them suddenly shouted, General, there are some other people here who are not from the Heaven-Splitting Army.


    Swish! Swish! Swish!


    Countless nces and divine senses swept over. Little Eagle Kings divine senses also were sent forth as he located Di Linger, Yi Chan, andpany. His face grew icy-cold as his gaze locked onto Mo Huaisang. He scolded, Mo Huaisang, what are you up to? Who are these people?


    Hmph!


    Ren Tianfan snorted and said, Little Eagle King, as amander, you are toocent. So many people had infiltrated your troop, and you actually didnt know? If they were assassins, we would all be dead. Someone,e! Take these people down!


    Swish! Swish! Swish!


    A few formidable martial artists on the mountain immediately reacted and surged towards Yi Chan, Di Linger, andpany. As Yi Chan andpany didnt resist, they were instantly taken down. Even Di Linger and Mo Huaisang were captured.


    <em>Something is wrong</em>


    Poison Spirit instinctively felt that something was not right. His gaze turned abruptly towards Bai Ditian, Qiu Ren, and some young masters. As he had expected, there was a devilish look in some of their eyes; a sliver of mockery also appeared on some of their faces.


    <em>We have been tricked; this is a plot! Ren Tianfan is not one of Heavenly King Wus men; he is definitely Heavenly King Yous!</em> Poison Spirit was a top-notch assassin and was adept at plotting assassination attempts. He had only thought about it for a moment, and he immediately realized this fact.


    Poison Spirit nced at the stunned and at-a-loss Mo Huaisang and the furious Little Eagle King. He immediately knew that the two did not know about this. The Little Eagle King was not someone who would do something like this while Mo Huaisang would not harm Jiang Yis wives. She had just been used!


    Someone had devised a plot. The target was Poison Spirit, Yi Chan, andpany. The mastermind was probably Bai Ditian, Qiu Ren, You Tianni, or even Heavenly King You.


    Furthermore, this set-up had been very meticulouslyid out; Poison Spirit andpany had willingly jumped into it.


    Even if someone guessed that this was a set-upter on, no one would be able to do anything to the mastermind. Poison Spirit and the others had, in fact, broken the Demon-Buster Army militaryws; Ren Tianfan had the right to arrest them. If Poison Spirit resisted, Ren Tianfan would also have the authority to kill him on the spot.


    Poison Spirit did not resist!


    It wasnt that he was afraid of death; there was no point in resisting. Even if he managed to kill Ren Tianfan, so what? There was still a King-Ranked guardian here.


    Poison Spirits mind worked furiously, thinking of a way out of this. Finally, his gazended on the Little Eagle King. If the Little Eagle King helped, perhaps there was still a way out of this.


    Poison Spirit shouted, Wait!


    The ten Titled Battle Gods were just about to rush towards Poison Spirit; they stopped when he shouted. The Poison Spirit was formidable, and they didnt dare to go head-on with him. If they did, at least half of them would die.


    <em>Little Eagle King, the trio are Jiang Yis wives; you should also know who Mo Huaisang and Di Linger are. We had entered this ce to save my Young Lord. Young Lord is not dead! He has probably been trapped by the Divine Tree! Ren Tianfan is Heavenly King Yous henchman; someone has set us up today to kill us. I hope that you will take ount of your sister and help us</em>


    Poison Spirit hurriedly sent a voice transmission to Little Eagle King. After that, Poison Spirit looked at Ren Tianfan and said, General, lets speak openly. Truth be told: Young Lord is still alive! If you dare to mistreat and act against usonce my Young Lord returns, you should be very clear of the consequences! Bai Ditian, Qiu Ren, and the rest of you; listen up! You guys should know my Young Lords temper the best. Anyone who dares to harm the three madams will bear the consequences!
