Chapter 896 - : Martial Arts Competition
Day by day, more and more sects were attacked by the Devil Cult, each sect’s people either killed or taken away by the cult, but not a single survivor to tell what had happened.
People in Martial Arts were panic-stricken, each major sect passing days in anxiety, fearing they would be the next victims.
Fortunately, the current leader of the Martial Arts finally started to show some leadership, calling on heroes to assemble, planning to tackle the issue with collective wisdom, and aiming to investigate the matters clearly before bringing the criminals to justice.
Since the leader of Martial Arts had issued orders, the major sects enthusiastically participated, all heading toward the assembly point, hoping to end this Martial Arts catastrophe.
Jian Shen, Lin Xi, Lu Bei, and Jin Yi all knew about the Martial Arts Competition, understanding it was a rare opportunity. Jian Shen planned to use the competition to expose the atrocities of the Devil Cult and then to lead the power of Martial Arts orthodoxy to crusade against the cult.
Although the Devil Incarnate was formidable, his weakness was too obvious, which was his inability to be active under sunlight. Therefore, dealing with the Devil Incarnate was quite simple: attack the Devil Cult when the sun was shining brightly, set fire to their base, and force the Devil Incarnate out.
This idea was good, but Lin Xi felt that if she were the Devil Incarnate, she would have surely considered this point; furthermore, the cult had been recruiting troops recently, so it would be difficult for just Jian Shen, Lin Xi, and the others to penetrate the cult’s defenses without the strength of the entire Martial Arts community.
Lin Xi supported Jian Shen’s idea and endorsed him to go to the Martial Arts Competition, even feeling that Jian Shen should be the leader of Martial Arts.
Lu Bei couldn’t help but remind him, "You were doing so well, and the next leader of Martial Arts would have been no one but you, but because of a woman, you’ve become the enemy of all in Martial Arts. Life is really unpredictable."
