"Bai Qingling, I didn't expect to meet either you or Liu Kong here," Peng Xiaoli's loud voice boomed. "Senior brother Xing was right. I am really glad that I listened to him and came here."
Liu Kong's eyes shrank hearing the name Senior Brother Xing. His mind began racing as he tried to decipher the meaning behind Peng Xiaoli's words.
"Peng Xiaoli, I really didn't expect that you would become Xing Wuchen's errand dog," Liu Kong ridiculed. "Have you truly lost your pride as a genius?"
"What did this have to with being someone else's dog? I wanted to test myself in battle and Senior brother Xing pointed me here. And Senior brother Xing was right, this place is indeed great for battles," Peng Xiaoli said in reply with a confused tone.
"Don't bother talking with this blockhead. He only has fighting on his mind," Bai Qingling snorted in contempt looking at Peng Xiaoli.
"Bai Qingling, have you truly forgotten what happened when we fought against each other last time," Peng Xiaoli roared in anger. "If you don't shut your mouth I will smash your pretty face up!"
"Hmmmph, you don't even know when someone is using you as a tool," Bai Qingling said in contempt. "So what if you defeated me last time? I am sure you will one day die not even knowing why you died. I don't need to bother with blockheads like you."
Peng Xiaoli looked flabbergasted being despised openly. He really didn't understand why both Liu Kong and Bai Qingling are looking at him with such contempt.
"Looks like Xing Wuchen once more has your number Liu Kong," Bai Qingling didn't forget to needle Liu Kong either.
"Shut up!" Liu Kong said angrily looking at Bai Qingling.
"Ha ha ha… you really thought you were really smarter than everyone else. You created so much trouble in the Star Empire and even lured so many experts here so that the Heavenly Demon Sect would be forced to fight. But, look at what's happening now."
"You planned for the Heavenly Demon Sect to fight the Level 7 beast, they didn't do as you wanted. Instead, they focused on the experts who came here. Meanwhile, Xing Wukong didn't even send anyone here. He has started to move against all your supporters in the Star Empire."
"And now, Xing Wuchen has sent this blockhead over to block your path. Looks like you truly underestimated your enemies Liu Kong. And just so you know, I ran into Yang Dangli a few days as well. I am sure he was sent here by Xing Wulong by now."
"Not to mention that the Heavenly Demon Sect will be sending some experts over when the time comes as well. With the Level 7 beast added to the mix, the chance of this treasure belonging to you is becoming slimmer by the minute," Bai Qingling didn't show any mercy to Liu Kong as she eviscerated him verbally.
Liu Kong grit his teeth and looked at her angrily. Peng Xiaoli, who was to the side, was sporting a surprised face. Seeing his truly surprised face, Liu Kong felt his patience thinning a lot. He had to try hard to keep his composure.
He knew that Bai Qingling was only trying to anger him. If he fell into her trap, then he would be tied down fighting others while she would make away with the treasure.
So, Liu Kong controlled his anger and shot a searching look at her. He never figured Bai Qingling would be so insidious. This was truly a revelation. He needed to raise her threat a bit from now on.
"Yang Dangli is also here. That bastard owes me a fight!" Peng Xiaoli crowed from the side. "Last time we met, he ran away pretty fast. I will see where he will run off to now."
"Do you think everyone is stupid like you looking for fights everywhere," another voice approached them from the distance causing the trio to look over.
Yang Dangli was walking over while fanning himself. He looked like some kind of scholar with a calm temperament. He had a pretty face with a serene atmosphere around him. His smile was mild as he looked at Peng Xiaoli as if he was looking at a particularly fascinating animal.
"Yang Dangli! Fight me!" Peng Xiaoli shouted and raced towards Yang Dangli.
Just when Peng Xiaoli reached Yang Dangli, Yang Dangli vanished from the spot he was in. This caused Peng Xiaoli to roar in frustration as he turned around angrily to see where Yang Dangli had gone to.
"Too slow," Yang Dangli appeared beside Liu Kong and Bai Qingling. "I assume you both came for the treasure as well. In that case, why don't we form a temporary alliance till we deal with the Level 7 beast?"
Liu Kong squinted at that and scrutinized Yang Dangli. While he was confident that he would be able to beat Yang Dangli, he didn't want some new variables cropping up when he was close to obtaining the treasure.
While Yang Dangli's strength was not really a threat to him, his speed was another matter. Being someone who cultivated the Wind Dao, even Liu Kong would have a hard time catching up to Yang Dangli if he was given a head start.
"You coward, stand and fight me!" Peng Xiaoli's shouts reached the trio once more as he ran back trying to attack Yang Dangli.
"If this blockhead didn't have a ridiculously powerful body, I would have ended him a long time ago," Bai Qingling snorted angrily.
"Not just that," Yang Dangli said calmly fanning himself, "I know that he has cultivated the Dao of Power. Fighting him head on, there are very few people who could accomplish such a feat."
"Is that so?" Liu Kong looked at Peng Xiaoli with interest. "I never knew he had cultivated the Power Dao. I was under the impression that he cultivates Earth Dao. He is widely known for mastering the Sundering Earth Sutra."
"He is a dual cultivator," Yang Dangli said looking at the approaching Peng Xiaoli. "He practices Battle God's Ten Transformations. He has already cultivated it to the Sixth Transformation. That's why very few people are able to fight him head-on."
"Ah, I see," Liu Kong nodded in understanding.
"But, I am sure you will be able to do it," Yang Dangli said with a strange smile looking at Liu Kong. "In fact, if my information is right then none of us here are your match."
Bai Qingling's eyes sharpened as she looked at Liu Kong.
"It is not often that one cultivates the Nine Dragons Divinity Sutra to the completion stage. Especially to the fifth ring. In fact, you are the second one to do so after its creator. Isn't that right Holy Son Liu Kong?" Yang Dangli asked calmly.
Bai Qingling hissed in surprise as she realized that if what Yang Dangli said was true then not even all three of them combined will be a match for Liu Kong. She didn't know about this particular information. She was still under the impression that Liu Kong was at the perfection stage.
"You seem to be very well informed of me, Yang Dangli. I wonder where you got such information," Liu Kong smiled but there was a menacing edge to it.
"You must be joking, Holy Son. No one would be foolish enough to tell others their sources of information," Yang Dangli said calmly as if he didn't see the threatening look Liu Kong gifted him with.
"Anyway, we need to deal with this blockhead before planning for the Level 7 beast. Even if you managed to cultivate Nine Dragons Divinity Sutra to the completion stage of the fifth ring, you won't be able to take on a Level 7 beast."
"Don't worry, I have dealt with this blockhead," Bai Qingling said looking at the arriving Peng Xiaoli. "Peng Xiaoli, you better stop there. We are planning to join hands to deal with a Level 7 beast. Do you want in or not?"
Peng Xiaoli came to a sudden halt. He looked at the trio as if they were trying to fool him. Liu Kong merely snorted seeing such a look. Yang Dangli waved his fan nonchalantly.
"Level 7 beast? You must be joking Bai Qingling!" Peng Xiaoli spoke at last.
"If you had bothered to collect some information before coming here, you would have known that. Why do you think none of us dared to go any further? However, that Level 7 beast has just stepped foot into that realm. If we all combine our strengths, we might be able to defeat it. Do you want in or not?"
Bai Qingling said impatiently.
"Count me in," Peng Xiaoli didn't even pause to think.
Yang Dangli and Liu Kong looked at Peng Xiaoli as if they were looking at someone stupid. They couldn't fathom how someone like him had cultivated to their level.
"See, I told you," Bai Qingling snorted as if knowing the result already. "As long as you promise him a fight, this blockhead will be willing to do anything."
"Quit your chatter, woman," Peng Xiaoli said waving his hands. "What are we waiting for? Let's go and find that Level 7 beast."
Bai Qingling spluttered being disrespected so brutally in front of her peers. She looked as if she wanted to cut Peng Xiaoli into a million pieces. Yang Dangli tried hard not to laugh, but it was a losing battle and he couldn't help himself.
Liu Kong looked at the three of them and a vague plan emerged in his mind. He was confident of emerging the final victor if a battle erupted amongst them after taking care of the Level 7 beast.
However, he still needed to be wary of Yang Dangli.
"Before we move on, do we at least know what kind of treasure is being guarded? While I am confident of its worth, I am not keen to fight a Level 7 beast for a treasure that has no use to me," Yang Dangli said looking at Liu Kong.
Liu Kong's eyes squinted as his mind began to race. They all were nearing the treasure area and all of them will know what it was before long. So, it didn't matter revealing what it was currently.
The only problem was that the treasure was too valuable.
