246 The Three Elders
There were more than a hundred blood refinement and bone pattern realm experts in the meeting hall, and more than half of them were already kneeling at Qin Huaiâs feet.
The Zhang familyâs warriors who had been cultivating their blood were in an even worse state. They were buried in the ground, and black blood was flowing out of their mouths. Their rapid breathing sucked the black blood into their noses, to add insult to injury.
âBrat! How dare you poison us!â An elder of the first-level bone pattern boundary was so angry that his eyes were about to pop out.
Crack!
A cold light flashed.
The head of the Zhang family elder fell to the ground.
Gulpâ¦
A huge head rolled on the ground, stained with blood, and rolled more than ten meters away.
Just like that, a dignified bone pattern realm expert had died in the meeting hall.
The person wielding the sword was Li Zewu. âWhat are you waiting for? Do it! I didnât give you such a huge advantage just to let you guys be stunned.â
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
In an instant, everyone from the Li family reacted. They raised their hands and slashed down, venting all the grievances they had felt from being beaten up like grandchildren.
âFourth Uncle, give the antidote to the people of the first branch.â Qin Huai took out three jade bottles and threw them to Li Zeshi.
Last night, he had already made the Li familyâs second and fourth branches take the antidote pills.
As for the eldest branch, Qin Huai was afraid that his father-in-law would stand against him because he had hidden it too well. Therefore, he did not reveal the news.
However, Qin Huai did not expect this. His dragon kingâs might was so strong that even a bone pattern realm expert would be affected.
Most of the Li familyâs forces, such as Li Shaoxiang and the other blood refinement experts, were unable to move even though they were not poisoned.
However, the Zhang family was even worse off.
Qin Huaiâs dragon kingâs might and the poison formation worked together to imprison everyone below first-level bone pattern realm.
There were only seven members of the Zhang family who were still standing at the same spot. Four at the second-level bone pattern realm, two at the third-level bone pattern realm, and the patriarch, Zhang Wu.
As for the Li family, Li Zewu and Li Zetao were both at third-level bone pattern realm. Fourth Uncle Li Zeshi was only at first-level bone pattern realm, and most of the experts in the Li family were the same as him.
âQin Huaiâ¦â Zhang Wuâs face was ferocious. âSo what if you poisoned so many people? Your poison still doesnât work on warriors above second-level bone pattern realm. Your strange white dragon force is weakening everyone, but my Zhang family still has four second-level bone pattern realm experts. Weâre still evenly matched!â
âThen what if this old master is included?â
In front of the meeting hall, a tall figure dressed sloppily walked in slowly.
âElder Erlong!â Zhang Wuâs pupils constricted when he saw who it was. âDidnât you go to Huai Dan City?â
âIt was us who informed Erlong to come back.â
In front of the door, Elder Dalong from the White Dragon Forest and Elder Sanolong from the Azure Dragon Pass walked side by side.
The three of them were at the third-level bone pattern realm. They were also the strongest neutral force other than the Zhang and Li families of the Nine Dragons sect.
But now, they had all turned to the Li family. Or rather, Qin Huai.
âZhang Wu, itâs time to end this chaos in the Nine Dragons sect.â Elder Dalong looked at Zhang Wu coldly. âYou are too ambitious. You did not hesitate to frame others and instigate internal strife in the entire Nine Dragons sect⦠You should be sentenced to death!â
âBoss, donât be so pretentious.â Elder Erlong waved his sleeve and interrupted Elder Dalongâs words. âIâve just left, and youâre going to kill my disciple right after?â
âYou have a good plan. Youâre simply courting death!â
Elder Dalong and Elder Sanlong glared at Elder Erlong and shook their heads helplessly.
Elder Erlong couldnât help but feel gratified when he saw half of the figures kneeling on the ground in the meeting hall.
âFortunately, this old master didnât come back.â He walked to Qin Huaiâs side, and his eyes couldnât help but twitch.
Then, he took two steps back. âWhat kind of force is this, making this old manâs heart beat faster?â
The moment he got close to Qin Huai, he felt as if his heart was blocked by something, and his entire body felt uncomfortable.
âGrandmaster has returned at the right time.â Qin Huai looked at the travel-worn Elder Erlong and knew that his grandmaster had probably returned from a journey.
With three third-level bone pattern realm martial artists joining in, Qin Huaiâs heart calmed down.
âZhang Wu, itâs time for you to die,â Li Zezhi growled.
The grudges accumulated over the past few decades exploded at this moment. He finally didnât have to worry about the Li familyâs gains and losses and could fight Zhang Wu.
Boom!
The two fourth-level bone pattern realm experts clashed with each other, causing the entire meeting hall to be shaken by their astonishing power.
âThey actually held back just now.â Qin Huaiâs eyes couldnât help but tremble. He had underestimated the strength of a martial artist at the fourth level of the bone pattern realm.
While he was thinking, the three dragon elders of the Gu family had already charged out.
The Zhang and Li families had accumulated grudges for hundreds of years, and now they were fighting to the death. They no longer cared about the life and death of the blood refinement realm elders around them.
This was because the Zhang familyâs people had already been beheaded, and the Li familyâs people had already taken the opportunity to retreat.
One by one, the heads of the Zhang family rolled down.
The meeting hall rumbled. The sound of heads falling to the ground was even louder than the sound of the battle between the many bone pattern realm experts.
As for the remaining first-level bone pattern martial artists, Qin Huai didnât hesitate to stab Silver Fox through their chests and foreheads.
The Zhang familyâs first-level bone pattern realm warriors, who could barely stand up and still had the strength to fight, became sluggish and their vitality was greatly damaged. They were killed by the Li familyâs bone pattern realm warriors as if the latter were possessed by the God of War.
Qin Huai watched as the Zhang familyâs blood refinement realm and first-level bone pattern realm experts were almost all killed. Only then did the white light in his eyes slowly extinguish.
Qin Huaiâs legs gave way, and he staggered back half a step.
