286 THE SECRET PLANS

“How could you be so reckless. If we do anything to the guy now, it will create chaos within the association. The damage is already done. Every single force is coming up to support the creation of a parliamentary system with ranks of power. He was the initiator. We can’t eliminate him until the coalition is established.

“I know about that. I just want the vice-leaders to keep a track of his actions. He managed to manipulate the whole situation against us with a single sentence. Something tells me that this guy is not simple. Do we know which force he belongs to?”

“He seems to belong to one of the mysterious forces out there. Their leader was an advanced level, Qi King, during his last and only appearance in the Taiwan mountains. Now the operations are carried out by the subordinates of his, like this guy.”

“Is the leader who doesn’t show himself to the world is what makes the group mysterious?”

“He is one of the reasons. The other being the fact that we can’t locate their actual base.No one knows where the groups originate from, but we are sure that they live somewhere within the Taiwan mountains.”

“A mysterious and well Hidden base. That is something worthwhile researching. We would benefit a lot if we could get our hands on such strategic locations. Hopefully, the vice-leader can situate the way to their base to uncover the mystery.”

“I have a feeling that he won’t be able to. Maybe he won’t even return alive.”

“You don’t believe that the group could kill a peak level Qi King?”

“I suspect that they can. I even believe that they would be the biggest hurdle we have to face in our plan to control the whole eastern border.”

.....

“They don’t even have a Qi Emperor level cultivator among themselves. Like hell, we need to fear weaklings like that.”

“I have a premonition that their group has got their hands on some legacy within the mountains. I have been suspecting their leader from the day he made his appearance. The way he, managed to dominate multiple bandit groups and then vanish into thin air, with all their resources and people is quite surprising.”

“What is even more mysterious is the sudden rise of a new power who couldn’t be traced within these mountains. Even if he brought a powerful treasure with him, it would still leave traces. The only explanation is some kind of a treasure trove inherent to the mountain itself.”

“You got all of that just from a single incident. I don’t know whether to call you a genius or a hyper-perceptive, moron.”

“You don’t have to believe my words. The events occurring is soon going to reveal the mystery. A major change is going to occur within the Taiwan mountains.”

“We are forming a coalition to take over the eastern region. That is a major upheaval.”

“Do you expect the other powerful forces within the eastern region to take this matter lightly? They have practised up to their levels due to their thirst for power. How could they allow someone like our group to simply dominate all things? We must consolidate our standing and help in the birth of another Qi Emperor within our ranks. Only then could we be somewhat safe.”

“Is he ready for his next breakthrough?”

“Third brother is the reason why we were confident enough of going through with our plan. Our family was blessed by fate to have someone who managed to connect with Heavenly Law. He is bound to rise and shine in the world. When he does, our family will bath in his glory too.”

“I know that we are in a hurry, but I think we should give him more time to build his resources. Stepping into Qi Emperor level from Qi King is quite easy. The only problem is the amount of reserve you manage to create. The more powerful your reserve energy is, the more powerful will be the law body.”

“What if I say that it was the third brother who suggested us to go through with the plan? He had managed to get his hands on some kind of treasure trove and has sent a lot of resources our way. There is no way we could have broken through our level so easily and near another breakthrough without them.”

“Wasn’t he trying to open the deepest section? What happened to that?”

“He confirmed that his plan was a success and he managed to tap into the core region of the treasure. He is currently building his final set of reserves with very powerful components. Once he manages to break through, he could take full control over the treasure. He wants us to be ready for huge improvements in our cultivations.”

The guy was elated upon hearing this event. Their third brother was the greatest genius to have been born within their family. They were no match for him once he stepped into peak Qi King. Once he managed to break through the emperor level and form his law body, they would seize control over the whole eastern borders.

“I guess we will have to wait and see how the events play out. I just hope that he manages to complete his plan soon. The other Qi Emperors have begun to eye the coalition with hungry eyes. A single loophole and they would swoop in to seize benefits.”

In another region of the eastern borders-

Li Meng soon entered a distant mountain range and continued to go deeper. It was a region which his avatar had recently discovered, that housed no Bandit group. He entered one of the deepest locations and stopped.

“Why don’t you people come out and we could greet each other?” Li Meng said with a smile on his face.

Nothing happened to the surrounding. Li Meng waited patiently until eventually, he turned around to look at a dark corner. ” I guess a display of might will be the perfect way to go.” He waved his hand with incredible speed and the whole corner was blasted with an incredible amount of power.

He decided to use 50 % of his power with all the laws blended in. A grey figure immediately blasted out of the corner and appeared in front of Li Meng.

“Impressive power. Although I could sense that your cultivation base is in intermediate, the power you imparted just now is on the same level as mine. I didn’t expect a genius to have appeared within the Taiwan mountains.”

“You are quite cheerful for someone who was just attacked.” Li Meng was quite relaxed.

“You seem confident in your strength to deal with the current situation. I guess you have a trump card.” The vice-leader said.

“I thought you have come up to strike a friendly conversation. Now that you have showcased your hostility towards me, I no longer need to show sympathy.” Li Meng’s smile enlarged.

“How could you be so sure to deal with a peak Qi King like me.” The vice-leader was interested in uncovering Li meng’s actual strength.

“I could deal with you just by myself. Although it would be a bit of haggling, an earthen law user is a total waste to me. Sadly, I am in a hurry, hence we need to finish you up soon.” Immediately four additional figures appeared beside Li Meng. One of them was an intermediate Qi King, and another was an advanced Qi King.

The vice-leader was taken back by the sudden appearance.

“So you prepared for this event.” The vice-leader was trying to buy time to get out of the situation. He had already begun activating his message talisman. As long as other vice-leaders meet him mid-way, he could stay alive.

“Trying to buy time. Man, you can’t even read the situation. I said I could easily deal with you, just by myself. With four other people appearing do you think you are going out of here alive?”

Li meng immediately used the Thunder fist, while Xuan Luo used one of the consummate techniques from the Shengluo pavilion. While the vice-leader was busy holding his ground against two very powerful attacks, a figure suddenly appeared behind him, and directly pierced his back.

It was a very lethal attack, which instantly made the vice-leader spout out a huge mouth full of blood. He was surprised by the power of the three people. Each one of them was at the same level as him. The situation was turning for the worse.

He tried his best to hold out, and negate the power directed at him while imbuing the message talisman with more power. It finally powered up enough, to shine brightly and fade into the wind.

“You are dead now boy. Every single one of you will be killed.” The vice-leade shouted.

“You took too long to send the message. I was hoping you would send it sooner.” Li Meng smiled.

He suddenly used his full power and completely overpowered the vice-leader.
