Zombie Bodyguard

Chapter 2135: Chapter 2132: Poisonous Scheme

"The Heavenly Tribulation Sword!" The crowd stirred, and even that sword-bearing woman’s eyes lit up.

Back in Qingshuang Pavilion, when the Heavenly Tribulation Sword appeared, it shook the whole city’s Ancient Martial Artists and drew all sides into a scramble. Plus Lin Tian fought Tang Xuan Su with the Heavenly Tribulation Sword in hand, totally stealing the spotlight.

A newly born sect-guarding treasure means the rise of a new force. Who wouldn’t be tempted?

Seeing he’d caught everyone’s attention, Situ Yufeng laughed again. "Lin Tian, don’t tell me you didn’t bring the Heavenly Tribulation Sword. A sect-guarding treasure like that—say you didn’t bring it and even ghosts wouldn’t believe you."

"Whether you believe it or not has nothing to do with me. I don’t give a damn. Get lost." Lin Tian glanced at him coldly, still with no intention of taking out the Heavenly Tribulation Sword.

"What’s the point of acting tough with me? Anyway you can’t enter the Ancient Martial competition. The biggest favorite to win this time is Ji Zimo—he’s the real number one of the younger generation. Some abandoned Miss from her sect better watch herself, or she’ll lose miserably. Lin Tian won’t be able to save you." Situ Yufeng sneered back, dripping sarcasm.

The targets of the mockery were naturally the Miss and Lin Tian, and "abandoned Disciple" was aimed straight at the Miss. Her being kicked out of her sect had long spread throughout the Ancient Martial World.

The Miss’s expression didn’t change at all. She just said blandly, "Relax. Before that happens, I’ll beat you so hard you’ll be crying for mommy and daddy."

The way this lady CEO trashed people was getting more and more like Lin Tian’s. Lin Tian couldn’t help but grin.

"Hmph!" Situ Ruoling snorted coldly, suddenly cutting in. "You and my brother are both at Postnatal Perfection. Who beats who is still up in the air. Don’t talk too big, or when you make a fool of yourself later you’ll have nowhere to put your face."

Her words were full of bite, gunpowder thick in the air. The fight hadn’t even started yet, but the trash talk was already flying.

The Situ siblings didn’t dare make a move, but they were happily hurling insults—until the sword-bearing woman said something that killed their fun.

"Mr. Lin, you have Ling Pavilion Master’s jade token. You’re an honored guest of Langya Pavilion. No need to surrender your sword—please go up the mountain." The sword-bearing woman gave a formal salute, her tone extremely polite.

"Many thanks, miss." Lin Tian smiled, returning the salute in a rather proper manner.

"Ling Pavilion Master’s jade token?" Situ Ruoling let out a discordant sound, unwilling. "I don’t buy it. How could Ling Pavilion Master give him a jade token? He’s just a thug and a bastard."

Lin Tian pulled out the jade token and waved it in front of Situ Ruoling, smiling faintly. "If your eyes are small, you should open them wider. Otherwise you won’t see clearly and you’ll just make a fool of yourself."

Situ Ruoling’s eyes actually weren’t small. Lin Tian said it on purpose. Women aren’t afraid of being called young, but they hate being called flat-chested or small-eyed.

Sure enough, Situ Ruoling’s willow brows shot up, her temper spiking, but before she could blow up, Lin Tian’s group had already stepped onto the suspension bridge and started up the mountain path.

Situ Ruoling had nowhere to vent her bellyful of anger, and it was suffocating. "I’m so pissed! That bastard—just wait till I get the chance. I’ll hack him into eight pieces, then mince him up to feed the fish!"

After quite a while, once some of her anger had faded, she added, "Big brother, are my eyes really small?"

Situ Yufeng’s face was full of black lines. He said helplessly, "Sis, did Lin Tian piss you dumb? Your eyes aren’t small at all."

He waved his hand, calling all the family Disciples over to surrender their swords, including the Qixue Sword in his own hand, then walked onto the suspension bridge as well.

When no one else was around, Situ Ruoling suddenly said, "Bro, I’ve thought of a way to punish them."

"What way?" Situ Yufeng frowned. Truth be told, sometimes he was afraid this little sister would cause trouble. She never knew when to stop. Like this time—if she hadn’t insisted on going to the mall to play and had followed their elders up the mountain instead, none of this would have happened.

So when his sister talked about revenge and punishment, he didn’t feel happy—he felt a bit anxious instead. But there was nothing he could do. She’d been spoiled since childhood, and her temperament was already utterly lawless.

"We steal all the weapons that the various families and sects have handed over to Langya Pavilion for safekeeping. Then I’d like to see how Langya Pavilion explains that." A vicious glint flashed in Situ Ruoling’s eyes.

Situ Yufeng’s whole body jolted, his steps on the bridge stumbling; he almost fell off the suspension bridge. It took great effort to steady himself, and his forehead was already slick with cold sweat.

"Sis, keep your voice down. If someone hears, this’ll blow up." Situ Yufeng lowered his voice, looking helpless. "Do you know what the consequences of that would be? A sect-guarding treasure is the lifeline of life and death. If they lose their sect-guarding treasures, it’ll trigger a war in the Ancient Martial World."

Situ Ruoling curled her lips, unconcerned. "Then let it be war. The more dead the better. That Ling Shuiyao opposes me at every turn, and Ling Zishan keeps defending Lin Tian. It’d be best if they all died. As long as we do it covertly, gods and ghosts won’t know. Let all the major families go to war with Langya Pavilion."

"When they’re both badly wounded and only our Situ family is left, we’ll be the Ancient Martial supremes. Who would still dare oppose me? Anyone who opposes me, I’ll make them crawl before me, serve as slaves and maids for life!" Situ Ruoling’s face was savage and venomous, making the surrounding family Disciples break out in cold sweat.

Situ Yufeng was no exception. This idea of his sister’s was simply too vicious, too ruthless—but he had to admit, it was extremely tempting.

Just imagine: all the major Ancient Martial families hand over their sect-guarding treasures to Langya Pavilion for safekeeping, and in the end Langya Pavilion can’t produce them and can’t return them. The fury of those families would burn away any shred of reason. There would be only one outcome—war, and a war to the death.

The Situ family would only need to put on a bit of a show, deceive heaven and cross the sea. Then, when the others were both gravely wounded, they’d rise in one stroke, unify the Ancient Martial World, and become the Ancient Martial supremes. Just thinking about it was enough to get the blood pumping.

However, he hadn’t completely lost his senses. After thinking it over, he said in a deep voice, "This is a big deal. We still need to plan carefully. Sis, until we’re absolutely sure, you mustn’t act rashly."

Situ Ruoling’s eyes rolled, but she didn’t say anything.

Situ Yufeng’s gaze swept over the few family Disciples, his expression icy. "No one can repeat what was said today. Otherwise there’s only one end for you—death!"

The few Disciples hurriedly pledged, "Senior brother, rest assured. We’re of the same family, sharing fortune and misfortune, bound by blood. How could we ever do something that betrays our family? We’ll leave this matter entirely to senior brother and Ruoling little sister to decide."

By now, Lin Tian was already leading Yun Xiaotian, and the Miss was leading Xiao Manxuan, across the long suspension bridge, continuing up the mountain. Both Yun Xiaotian and Xiao Manxuan were ordinary people, so they naturally couldn’t cross the bridge alone.

Lin Tian carried Yun Xiaotian across the bridge, and when he put her down, the little girl’s face was flushed red.

Ever since she’d gone back to dressing as a girl, Yun Xiaotian had been getting prettier and prettier. Especially when that fair little face blushed—though she didn’t have a curvy, voluptuous figure, her charm was still considerable. Good thing Lin Tian wasn’t into lolis, or he might have been ensnared by her too.

As they entered the mountain, buildings gradually appeared. There were pavilions, there were towers. These structures didn’t have the grand imposing momentum of the Zhang Family Mansion, but they were uniquely elegant and exquisite, just like the surrounding peaks. Some peaks had only a single ancient building, like a lonely thinker standing between heaven and earth, or like an Immortal’s dwelling, lofty and unfathomable.
