Chapter 422: The Best Way

In the room, Gu Xi’s expression became more and more serious.

Not long ago, the referee announced the results of the competition.

As expected, the Blood Spirit Society would defeat the seven disciples of the Wind Cloud Pavilion with absolute crushing strength and win a complete victory.

Two of the seven disciples of the Wind Cloud Pavilion died and five were heavily injured. It was thanks to the strong warning of the referee that the red-clothed man who went on stage restrained himself. Although the five disciples who came later were lucky enough to survive, their injuries were so severe that they could only spend the rest of their lives lying on their beds.

The red-robed man was so ruthless that everyone was flabbergasted.

“The Blood Spirit Society is so powerful, but the name of the Blood Spirit Society seems to be quite unknown… With such strength, it should not be unknown…”

Looking at the seven red figures who had already left the arena, Tang Conglin’s expression was also very grave. The strength of the Blood Spirit Society made him feel a hint of threat.

This kind of threat even surpassed some first-rate forces to a certain extent.

“The Eastern Continent is vast. There will always be existences we don’t know about.” Tong Shan shook his head. He did not find any information about the Blood Spirit Society in his mind either.

It was as if… This sect had appeared out of thin air.

The competition in the arena continued, and the atmosphere in the stands was equally heated. Although some strong contestants had appeared one after another, there was no longer anyone who could fight seven opponents at once like Gu Xi and the man from the Blood Spirit Society.

Gu Xi and the others remained in the room obediently. After Tang Conglin and Tong Shan had lowered their requirements, they had carefully learned about all the opponents they needed to pay attention to. As for what Gu Xi had noticed about the Blood Spirit Society, he did not inform Tang Conglin and Tong Shan about it.

For one thing, Gu Xi knew very little about the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. Furthermore, the matter of the outer realm demons sneaking into the mainland was not child’s play, so he could not tell them about it casually.

After some consideration, Gu Xi decided to inform Elder Yun and Elder Gu as soon as possible when he returned. After all, Elder Yun had come into contact with the outer realm demons 10,000 years ago. Elder Gu was backed by a mysterious force from the Central Plains. As long as the two of them knew about this, they did not have to worry about what they should do.

The sun was setting, and the sky was gradually darkening.

The competition in the arena had come to an end. The people in the stands had also begun to leave one after another, and the number of people in the arena had decreased drastically.

Only Gu Xi, Qing Zhu, and Little Nine were left in the room.

Tang Conglin and the others had already returned to the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, while Gu Xi asked the two of them to stay behind for the sake of discussing tactics.

“What do you think about this?” In the room, Gu Xi raised his head to look at Qing Zhu.

As he spoke, a vast spiritual sense gushed out from his mind, enveloping the entire room in the blink of an eye. In this way, there was no need to worry about his voice leaking out from the room.

“I will inform Elder Gu as soon as possible. They will make their own decision on this matter.” Qing Zhu spoke nonchalantly, as if she was not very concerned about discovering the matter regarding the outer realm demons. There was even a tone of indifference in her voice.

Gu Xi was keenly aware of Qing Zhu’s tone and could not help but frown slightly. “Don’t think that the outer realm demons will only have designs on our Eastern Continent.”

“What do you mean?” Qing Zhu narrowed her long and narrow eyes, feeling somewhat puzzled.

Gu Xi smiled slightly and turned his gaze toward the sunset in the distance. “We’ve already discovered their tracks in the Southern Continent, and now we’ve discovered their tracks in the Eastern Continent. If I’m not mistaken, the Four Continents have already been infiltrated by them without anyone noticing.”

“It doesn’t seem to have anything to do with the Central Plains,” Qing Zhu said faintly.

“Indeed, it doesn’t have much to do with the Central Plains. After all, compared to the Central Plains, the Four Continents have a huge difference in overall strength. Even if the demonic race from the outer realm wanted to infiltrate Central Plains, it wouldn’t be easy.”

“But do you really think that the ambitions of the demonic races from the outer realm are so simple?”

“Although I don’t know much about them, please use your head to think. If they successfully occupy the Four Continents, would they really give up the Central Plains, which is rich in resources and occupies a larger area, so easily?”

Gu Xi’s expression was serious. He raised his hand and pointed at the arena below, the corners of his mouth curling into an unfathomable arc. He continued, “If you don’t believe me, why don’t you take a look at this place? What do you think they came to participate in this competition for?”

Qing Zhu was stunned at first, but she quickly realized something.

“You’re saying that they…”

Gu Xi nodded once again. He said in a deep voice, “That’s right. If my guess is correct, they took a huge risk to participate in this Grand Sect Competition. They wanted to obtain a spot to go to the Central Plains so that they could sneak in silently.”

“Once they successfully sneak into the Central Plains, if the people of the Central Plains don’t take it seriously, I’m afraid that the fall of the Central Plains is only a matter of time.”

After hearing Gu Xi’s words, Qing Zhu could not help but fall into deep thought.

The Central Plains had always been at odds with the Four Continents. Even when the demonic races from the outer realm invaded 10,000 years ago, the Central Plains had never sent out a single soldier, causing the relationship between the two sides to deteriorate drastically.

Now, the otherworldly demonic race was showing signs of making a comeback. Moreover, just as Gu Xi had said, would their ambitions really end there?

Once the otherworldly demonic race successfully occupied the Four Continents, they would form a siege on the Central Plains. Even though the Central Plains was a difficult bone to gnaw on… When it was surrounded and gnawed on, no matter how hard the bone was, it would eventually be gnawed off!

“Then what do you want to do?” After pondering for a long time, Qing Zhu opened her red lips.

“It’s very simple.” Gu Xi smiled and said, “If we want Central Plain’s life to be stable, we must first ensure that the Four Continents live a stable life. What we need to do is to find out why they infiltrated, find their purpose. What we need to do now is to stop them from achieving their goal.”

“What do you want to do?” Qing Zhu asked again, her gaze fixed on Gu Xi.

“The best way… is naturally to kill them all.”

Gu Xi grinned, a murderous intent flashed in the depths of his pitch-black pupils.
