Once everyone was seated, Xiao Yixian began to inquire about the current situation.
"After entangling with our Poison Sect for a few days, the people of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate have started to contract their defensive lines. Now, almost all of their members have retreated into the Myriad Scorpion Mountain Range.
During these recent skirmishes, our Poison Sect has also suffered considerable losses. If it weren't for the Sect Leader's foresight in ordering us not to pursue them too aggressively, we might have already lost two Dou Wang experts."
Hearing her inquiry, Wu Ya swept his gaze around the tent, let out a dry cough, and then spoke.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yixian frowned slightly, clearly displeased with the current state of affairs.
"Sect Leader, based on this old man's observations over the past few days, it seems that whenever our Poison Sect attempts a major sweeping operation, the enemy somehow gets wind of it beforehand.
The elite forces of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate always manage to evacuate the area in advance, leaving behind only insignificant low-level members. And whenever there's the slightest weakness in our defenses, they immediately launch concentrated attacks, causing heavy losses."
After speaking, Wu Ya put on a slightly distressed expression and said in a low voice, "According to my guess, there must be a spy from the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate hidden within our Poison Sect."
As soon as these words fell, an uproar erupted within the main tent.
All of the Poison Sect experts instinctively looked around suspiciously, their eyes now laced with a faint trace of wariness toward their companions.
Watching the old man's attempt at sowing discord, Lin Feng's eyes gleamed with a hint of amusement.
As the tent descended into slight chaos, a cold glint also flashed across Xiao Yixian's eyes.
Just moments earlier, Lin Feng had already informed her through soul transmission who the spy within the Poison Sect was.
Now seeing the man still brazenly trying to sow discord among their ranks, her killing intent surged even further.
Noticing this, Lin Feng quietly exchanged a look with Yun Shan, who stood beside Wu Ya.
"Extreme Wind · Falling Massacre!"
Suddenly, Yun Shan, who was behind Wu Ya, raised a finger and lightly pointed at the latter.
A deep and narrow ray of light, no wider than a thumb, instantly shot out.
The moment the ray appeared, even the space itself violently trembled.
Then, the beam headed straight for Wu Ya's head.
At this moment, Wu Ya clearly sensed something was wrong.
But the distance between them was only a few meters, and considering that it was a Dou Zong ambushing a Dou Huang, Wu Ya had no chance to react.
Just as he began to turn his head to check, a green beam of light directly pierced through his skull.
It continued through his body and shot out beyond the tent.
Everyone within several kilometers stared in shock at the sudden appearance of the green beam, completely dumbfounded.
As for Wu Ya, with a hole now blown through his head, his body twitched a few times before collapsing limply onto the meeting table.
Fluids from his brain slowly leaked out of the wound.
"Bastard! What are you doing?!"
"Sect Leader! Please strike at once and kill the murderer of Elder Wu Ya!"
"Damn it! He must be a spy sent by the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate!"
As Wu Ya fell, voices erupted one after another. Some people even rushed to surround Yun Shan, and the tent instantly descended into chaos.
Among them, four elders exchanged nervous glances, a flash of panic flickering in their eyes.
"Silence!"
Seeing the disorder before her, Xiao Yixian abruptly released her Dou Zong-level aura, pressing down on everyone like a tidal wave.
Under this overwhelming pressure, the tent instantly quieted down. Everyone turned to look at her.
"This Wu Ya was a spy sent by the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate. Everything he just said was merely to sow discord among us."
Xiao Yixian's beautiful eyes swept across the crowd as she spoke calmly.
Upon hearing this, a trace of shock and doubt flashed through everyone's eyes.
No one had expected the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate to use such a tactic.
"Sect Leader, Elder Wu Ya has always been loyal and diligent for the sect. He doesn't look like a spy at all. How can you say that without proof..."
At that moment, a Four-Star Dou Huang-level elder stood up, speaking with a voice full of grief and indignation.
"Heh, just check his storage ring. Then we'll know whether he's a spy or not."
Before anyone could react, Lin Feng had already walked to Wu Ya's corpse at some point and pulled off the storage ring from his finger.
Seeing this, the elder who had just spoken up in Wu Ya's defense suddenly turned pale.
In a hurry, he shot a glance at another elder and then shouted loudly, "You're an outsider! What if you use some deceitful method to frame Elder Wu Ya? It would be more appropriate to let one of our own Poison Sect elders inspect it instead!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the elder stepped forward, attempting to snatch the storage ring from Lin Feng's hand.
Boom!
Just as the elder made a move, Xiao Yixian's terrifying pressure immediately swept through the entire tent.
"Elder Sun, what are you so anxious about? What harm is there in letting him take a look?" Xiao Yixian said calmly, halting the elder's actions with her overwhelming aura.
"Sect Master, he's an outsider. This isn't proper!" Elder Sun's expression became even more panicked, though his voice was filled with righteous indignation.
"Hehe, I didn't expect that besides the items bearing the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate's insignia, this ring also contains the names and information of four other spies," Lin Feng said with a chuckle, already retrieving a scroll from Wu Ya's storage ring before Elder Sun could say anything further.
The moment Lin Feng revealed the exact number of spies, the hearts of the four hidden Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate agents surged with boundless panic.
They exchanged quick glances, then immediately unleashed their Dou Qi Wings and tried to flee the tent.
At this moment, they no longer cared about completing any mission—they only wanted to escape back to the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate to avoid the Poison Sect's wrath!
However, how could Queen Medusa, who had been prepared from the beginning, let them escape right under her nose?
With a casual wave of her jade-like hand, several massive rainbow-colored energy whips lashed out at the fleeing spies.
"Damn wretched woman!"
Seeing the deadly aura radiating from the seven-colored energy whips, the spies didn't dare be careless. They had no choice but to halt and defend themselves.
"You… you're spies from the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate!"
The shockwaves from their clash finally woke the Poison Sect powerhouses to reality. They erupted in angry shouts.
If they still couldn't see the truth of the situation, they'd be nothing short of fools.
"Kill them!"
The Poison Sect experts, furious from having their plans constantly leaked these past days, roared as they charged forward.
"You bastards! The Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate will never let you Poison Sect off—ahhh!"
Elder Sun didn't even get to finish his sentence before he was swarmed by dozens of enraged Poison Sect experts. All kinds of Dou Techniques rained down on him.
It didn't take long before the four traitors were beaten into nothing but pulp by the furious crowd.
Seeing that the spies had been thoroughly eliminated, a faint smile tugged at the corner of Lin Feng's lips. He casually tossed aside the poison encyclopedia in his hand.
After the group finished discussing the battle plan for tomorrow's assault, Xiao Yixian announced the end of the meeting.
The night quietly passed.
As the first rays of sunlight spilled across the land the next morning, the various Poison Sect camps began to bustle with activity.
The sect members busied themselves with the final preparations before the assault.
Everyone was keenly aware that today marked the final showdown between the two greatest forces of the Jia Ma Empire.
Whoever emerged victorious from this battle would not only survive, but also go on to rule the entire empire!
Woooooo!
Before long, the deep blare of a war horn shattered the mountain's silence.
In an instant, the sounds of battle erupted across the entire range.
Countless Poison Sect members surged out from their camps, charging forward under the command of powerful cultivators.
Like a tide of furious ants, they swept across the Myriad Scorpion Mountain Range, surging straight toward the mountain peak where the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate was headquartered.
