Chapter 2135: False Information
After finalizing the battle plan, the meeting quickly came to an end.
Once the meeting was over, Long Qie immediately sprang into action.
He did not leak the news that Xiao Zheng had obtained a piece of the Golden Bone, but instead, through modification and forgery, it turned into a rumor that a Golden Bone had surfaced in the East Sealing Mountain of Kunwu City.
Kunwu City isn’t far from the Kunlun Mountain, and the East Sealing Mountain is a branch of the Kunlun Mountain.
The reason Long Qie chose this location was that he had his own considerations.
Because one of the entrance and exit points of the Ancient World is hidden within the Kunlun Mountain, moreover, the surroundings have always been filled with historical and legendary sites, so the appearance of a Golden Bone isn’t surprising.
Only by making up the story as perfectly as possible would it not arouse the suspicion of the Witch Clan members.
After devising the plan, Long Qie ordered his men to start spreading the news.
As for Xiao Zheng and the others, they immediately rushed to the East Sealing Mountain to lie in wait.
Although the Sky Net’s intelligence system might not gather intelligence as well as the old forces like the Blood Clan, when it comes to spreading rumors, it is even more formidable than the old forces like the Blood Clan.
Especially in Huaxia, almost every province and city has a Sky Net branch.
As Sky Net began to operate around this event, the rumor of a Golden Bone in the East Sealing Mountain quickly spread across Huaxia...
On another side.
In the depths of Yunhai’s vast mountains, within an ancient relic, five men of various ages were staying.
Some sat, some stood, beside them, a campfire quietly burned.
One could tell that these five had been entrenched in this ancient relic for a long time; they were the Witch Clan members whom Xiao Zheng had been desperately seeking. Previously, Li Wei, who died at Xiao Zheng’s hands, was one of their clan members.
The news about Xiao Zheng spread in the Ancient World through the Witch Clan’s mouth.
It was unclear how much time had passed when a young man leaning against a stone pillar suddenly asked, "Li Wu, how long has it been since the eldest brother went out?"
Hearing this, Li Wu, sitting by the campfire, opened his eyes and said, "The eldest brother has been out for almost three days. What, are you already getting impatient, Li Hui?"
Upon hearing his words, Li Hui nodded without hesitation and said, "Of course, we’ve been in this godforsaken place for almost five days, doing nothing. Can I not be anxious?"
"There’s nothing we can do. The eldest brother said that for now, we mustn’t act rashly," Li Wu began, his tone steady, evidently holding a significant position among the five.
Li Hui’s gaze flickered with dissatisfaction, then he spoke, "Wait, wait, just waiting. How long have we been waiting? You know it’s not easy for us to be out here, and if we don’t accomplish anything, we’ll be laughed at by the other clan members when we return."
"Li Wu, should we go out and find the eldest brother?"
"Our time isn’t limited, there’s no need to rush," Li Wu said, unmoved. "The clan gave us a one-month deadline, and not even half has passed yet, so there’s no need for haste."
"As for the eldest brother, he should be back soon."
Having said this, he once again closed his eyes, resembling a meditating monk.
Seeing this, Li Hui couldn’t help becoming even more frustrated.
At that moment, from within the dense forest nearby, a tall figure slowly emerged.
"The eldest brother is back!"
Someone in the relic exclaimed joyfully.
Li Wu opened his eyes, and his face lit up with surprise upon seeing the person arrive: "Eldest brother, it seems your cultivation has advanced these past few days; I didn’t even sense your aura."
The eldest brother laughed at these words, then replied, "Not sensing my aura is normal, isn’t it? If you could sense my aura, then my Transcendent Realm cultivation would be rather useless."
Hearing his words, everyone could not help but laugh.
After the laughter died down, the eldest brother suddenly turned serious and said, "Alright, the jokes are over, now let’s discuss serious matters."
Seeing him suddenly become serious, Li Hui asked excitedly, "Eldest brother, have you found a clue about the Golden Bone? Or have you already killed that guy named Evil God?"
"According to the message sent back by Li Wei, that guy named Evil God has at least five pieces of the Golden Bone on him!"
"If we can find him, the Clan Leader will certainly reward us heavily when we return! The title of future Clan Leader will also fall on you!"
Hearing his words, the eldest brother shook his head and said, "Evil God should be the strongest in the outside world. It’s easier said than done to kill him. However, although we can’t kill Evil God for now, I have already found a clue about the whereabouts of the Golden Bone."
"I’ve heard from my trip that there is an ancient relic in the East Sealing Mountain of Kunwu City that supposedly holds a Golden Bone!"
At the end of his words, a trace of excitement appeared in his eyes.
Li Wu, Li Hui, and the others were also stirred, their spirits electrified with eagerness.
After all, they had been in this ancient relic for many days, doing nothing, especially Li Hui, who had long been stifled.
"Finally a clue to the Golden Bone, haha, we can finally leave this godforsaken place!" Li Hui laughed heartily, "We must get our hands on that Golden Bone!"
Feeling his excitement, the other brothers also smiled slightly.
However, Li Wu soon asked, "Eldest brother, is the news you heard reliable? What if someone is plotting against us?"
Hearing this, the eldest brother shook his head and said, "The information I heard is definitely not fake, and even if there is no Golden Bone, there’s no harm in making a trip there; at most, we’ll just waste a bit of time. There’s no significant loss for us."
"In any case, anything concerning the Golden Bone cannot be ignored!"
"Put out the fire and pack up your things, we’re heading to Kunwu City right away! We aim to get that Golden Bone before daybreak!"
Upon hearing his orders, Li Wu and the others quickly mobilized.
In less than three minutes, the six individuals departed the ancient relic. They flew into the cloud sea, swiftly heading towards Kunwu City, where the East Sealing Mountain is located!
