Chapter 296: No One Is Useless

Fights were breaking out across the Holy Sect. Han Yongyi’s invasion of the Holy Sect this time not only brought a large number of elite forces but also unleashed all the vicious and ruthless disciples who had been imprisoned.

These disciples, once locked away in dungeons, might not have possessed high cultivation levels, but they were all treacherous and brutal individuals. For the Holy Sect, this was the greatest disaster in its history.

“Hehe, the disciples of the Holy Sect are nothing special. Now let me send you to your grave,” a disciple from the Jiuxiao Sect sneered darkly, his curved blades flashing cold, menacing light under the glaring sun.

A Holy Sect disciple, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, stood amidst the corpses of his juniors, so visible and heart-wrenching. His hands trembled.

The enemy’s strength was simply too overwhelming, especially those curved blades, which seemed to bewilder the eyes. In the blink of an eye, one could lose their head.

“Pah… Someone will avenge me. The Holy Sect is invincible!” Roaring furiously without a trace of fear, the Holy Sect disciple charged toward the Jiuxiao Sect disciple.

“Hmph, seeking death,” the Jiuxiao Sect disciple sneered coldly, his curved blade suddenly glowing with a seductive, eerie light.

The Holy Sect disciple couldn’t help blinking, and in that instant, he knew he was already dead…

Yet he waited a long time without feeling the brief pain. When he opened his eyes, he saw four figures descending like saviors under the blazing sun.

“Little junior brother, are you alright?” Zhang Erdou stepped forward and asked.

“I’m fine, it’s you, Senior Brother Zhang,” the Holy Sect disciple sighed in relief upon seeing the newcomers, but when he looked at the Jiuxiao Sect disciple, he couldn’t help but gasp.

“Qi, don’t be so bloody-handed,” Zhang Erdou frowned slightly, unable to bear watching directly.

“Oh,” Mo Qiongqi replied indifferently, then casually tossed the severed head into the air, smashing it into pieces with a single palm strike.

Zhang Erdou shook his head. Damn, if he didn’t know this was his beloved junior brother, he might have thought he was some terrifying demonic overlord—his methods were indeed excessively bloody.

“Little junior brother, you rest well. Fellow junior brothers, let’s go. The Holy Devil Sect rescue team fears nothing,” Zhang Erdou declared proudly.

The Holy Sect disciple gazed at the four figures, his eyes filled with admiration.

…

At the Jialan Peak.

Senior Sister Mu Bingyan led her junior sisters into battle against the Jiuxiao Sect disciples, uniting together to resist the external enemies.

At the Outer Disciple Area.

Meng Hao, rumored to be the reincarnation of a Martial God, unleashed boundless battle intent, clashing fiercely with a Jiuxiao Sect disciple.

“You invaders of the Holy Sect shall die…”

Jian Wudi, peerless in the sword path, wielded his black and white swords, flashing through the air. At this critical moment for the sect, disciples who had always hidden their true strength finally unleashed their full might.

“Amitabha.”

Lu Yan, having obtained the mysterious Buddhist bead, dared not conceal it any longer. He recited mysterious sutras unseen in the Dongling Continent, and behind him appeared a wrathful Buddha emanating solemnity and ferocity, unleashing boundless power.

At the Inner Disciple Area.

Zong Hentian rushed about, seeking out isolated juniors and rushing forward to assist them.

Among the Jiuxiao Sect disciples who had come this time, some possessed high cultivation levels. Entering the Holy Sect, they were like wolves among sheep. Many juniors with lower cultivation were slaughtered. He had to protect these helpless juniors to prevent them from dying in regret.

…

“Senior Brother, there’s a junior sister over there who’s alone and in grave danger,” Tianyu suddenly noticed a female disciple being cornered by a Jiuxiao Sect disciple, facing imminent death.

Zhang Erdou looked in that direction and immediately changed expression. “Leave it to me.”

“Pity such a pretty face. Let me give you a quick death,” Yulan had already closed her eyes in despair, knowing she was about to die.

At this moment, Yulan thought of many things, even recalling Zhang Erdou, who had once confessed to her and whom she had politely rejected. Scene after scene flashed through her mind. Suddenly, Yulan heard a familiar voice and her expression changed as she opened her eyes.

“Don’t dare harm her! Taste my Erdou Spicy Pepper Pill!” Zhang Erdou leaped into the air, tapped his storage ring, and shot out an extremely ugly pill that exploded on contact with the Jiuxiao Sect disciple, enveloping him in a cloud of smoke.

Influenced by Lin Fan, Zhang Erdou had gained some understanding of pills and even tried making them himself, discovering he had a decent talent for it. Thus, in recent times, Zhang Erdou had been experimenting with various pills.

Especially since the sect leader’s “Big Brother Fan” had left a deep impression on Zhang Erdou, he had been trying to replicate it.

Eventually, he failed to create “Big Brother Fan,” but he did produce a special pill.

In Zhang Erdou’s opinion, this pill could be called the “Erdou Spicy Pepper Pill.” Its formula included several extremely spicy herbs that could create a numbing, disorienting fog.

“What is this thing…” The Jiuxiao Sect disciple inhaled the red mist through his nose and mouth, instantly feeling his mind go blank, his eyes unable to open, his body slowing down.

“Die!” Seizing the opportunity, Zhang Erdou struck swiftly, killing the Jiuxiao Sect disciple.

Yulan gazed at this tall figure before her, gradually becoming entranced. As the figure began to leave, she suddenly called out.

“Senior Brother Zhang…”

“Junior Sister Yulan, be careful,” Zhang Erdou paused slightly before saying calmly.

Yulan was silent for a moment, regret evident on her face. “Senior Brother Zhang, can I have another chance?”

Zhang Erdou hesitated slightly before shaking his head. “Junior Sister Yulan, my life has already been devoted to the Holy Devil Sect. Matters of the heart have long faded. Farewell.”

Hearing these words, Yulan felt deep regret, but by now, it was already too late.

…

“Senior Brother, that was truly overwhemingly domineering,” Feng Bu Lian raised his thumb in admiration.

Zhang Erdou glanced at him, then smiled faintly. That action was not only domineering—it was incredibly satisfying.

“Watch out! The juniors ahead are in trouble. Everyone, move in!” At this moment, Zhang Erdou roared, “Fear not, fellow juniors! We are here!”

Zhang Erdou tapped his storage ring again, sending various pills flying toward the Jiuxiao Sect disciples.

Although these pills were not of high rank, in Zhang Erdou’s view, they were very practical in battle.

Mo Qiongqi, once a peerless madman, had been tamed by Lin Fan, but toward enemies, his nature remained cruel, his actions ruthless. Without needing any weapons, he tore opponents apart barehanded, displaying extreme bloodiness and terror.

Unleashing the ultimate power of “Immortal Unyielding,” his boundless battle intent filled the void as he roared, “Who else dares challenge me?”

Zhang Erdou was momentarily stunned. Just after throwing the pills, his junior brother Qi had so stylishly stepped forward, instantly wiping out all the Jiuxiao Sect disciples, not even giving them a chance to show their skills.

Especially that roar, shaking heaven and earth, altering the winds and clouds.

Having inherited “Immortal Unyielding,” although Mo Qiongqi’s cultivation was only at the peak of the Small Heaven Stage, he was fully capable of rivaling experts at the Grand Heaven Stage.
