BXBX NOVEL Chapter 276 - Intel Obtained
"Yes, she\'s a beauty that I rescued from a notorious cultivator." Mao Shandong exclaimed as he crawled on his knees.
Afterward, he started begging Elder Chen Xue to find the so-called beauty.
"If you want to know Tang Xin\'s location, I can tell you everything as long as you find her." Mao Shandong said.
Elder Chen Xue cursed Mao Shandong inwardly for his ridiculous mind.
However, he wanted to know Tang Xin\'s current whereabouts and had no time to waste.
.
Thus, Elder Chen Xue smiled genuinely as he nodded his head.
"As long as you can tell me her name, I will bring her to you and you will tell me the location of Tang Xin now." Elder Chen Xue said.
Mao Shandong shook his head.
"Did you take me for a fool, blinded by beauty?" Mao Shandong sneered.
"I\'m not going to tell you the whereabouts of Tang Xin until I see her in front of me, unharmed in any way," he added.
Although he was concerned for the beauty, Mao Shandong knew the only bargain he had right now was the intel he had.
\'You really take me for an idiot huh.\' Mao Shandong sneered inwardly as he wasn\'t going to fall for Elder Chen Xue\'s fake smile.
"Who is this woman you\'re speaking of then?" Elder Chen Xue decided to play along with him briefly. \'Just wait till I get the intel and watch how I\'ll make your life worse than death.\'
Mao Shandong was about to speak until a bandit suddenly broke the rope.
The disciple guarding the bandit was dumbfounded. He couldn\'t even get the chance to react as he was directly killed by the bandit in one strike.
Afterward, the bandit unsheathed the sword in the disciple belt as he held a ferocious expression at Mao Shandong.
"MAO SHANDONG!" The bandit shouted aloud as he charged after Mao Shandong.
His intention was clear, he wanted to get rid of a traitor in their bandits\' hideout.
Mao Shandong gasped in surprise when someone was thrusting their sword at him.
Meanwhile, Elder Chen Xue snorted as he flung his sleeve and the bandit was sent flying.
With a loud boom, the bandit crashed on the wall but before he could even react, two strands of spiritual qi pierced his forehead and heart at the same time.
Elder Chen Xue then glared at the disciples with a cold gaze. "If any of you failed to watch over the bandit and allowed this farce to happen again. Then your life can be considered over like that bandit over there, do you copy?"
"W-We understand, Elder Chen Xue." The disciples replied in unison as they sweated profusely.
They were frightened by the swift response from Elder Chen Xue and his decisiveness in killing the bandit within seconds.
Elder Chen Xue scoffed as he turned around and faced Mao Shandong again.
"I\'m not in a good mood anymore so are you going to tell me Tang Xin\'s whereabouts or do I need to resort to violence?" Elder Chen Xue said in a slow but deadly tone.
Mao Shandong swallowed nervously as he shook his head in response.
"T-Tang Xin\'s current location is near the Central Core of the Misty Forest… the place where it\'s shrouded by the Anguished Fog." Mao Shandong said in a hurried tone.
Elder Chen Xue held a pondering expression when he finally obtained the location of Tang Xin.
However, the news was anything but great because Elder Chen Xue did not want to enter the Anguished Fog. Anguished Fog was rumored to be a place of no return and he had no intention of sacrificing his life.
Elder Chen Xue wrinkled his brows tightly as he turned around and flicked his hand.
A strand of spiritual qi emitted out from his finger as it shot through Mao Shandong\'s forehead.
Mao Shandong didn\'t get to react as he plopped to the ground, dead with blood leaking out of his forehead.
Elder Chen Xue didn\'t even flinch as he glared at the disciples.
"What are you waiting for? End their trash life already and get moving." He ordered.
The disciples nodded their heads as they all unsheathed their swords and stabbed the bandits\' hearts, killing them in one strike.
Sometime later, Elder Chen Xue began organizing a plan for venturing into the Anguished Fog.
"Who is courageous and brave to be a hero in going to the Anguished Fog?" Elder Chen Xue asked.
No one replied.
Elder Chen Xue clicked his tongue as he expected this outcome. No one in their right mind would risk their lives in a dangerous situation.
"E-Elder Chen Xue… why don\'t we capture those from the Purple Scorpion Sect and Feather Wind Sect?" Suddenly, one of the disciples raised their hand as he suggested an option for Elder Chen Xue.
"Exactly, those two cowardly sects were nowhere to be found and went into hiding while we risked our lives infiltrating the bandit\'s hideout."
"The bandits said they didn\'t even see them so they are probably still hiding somewhere near the Misty Forest. We should capture them and force them into the Anguished Fog instead."
Elder Chen Xue curled his lips upward as he grinned evilly. "Everyone\'s suggestion is indeed logical. We have already done our part in obtaining the intel yet those two sects have done nothing."
And he continued, "Everyone heeds my command. Split into a group of five and separate to find the two sects. Once you find them, make sure to send a firework signal so that everyone nearby can assist you immediately."
"Yes, Elder Chen Xue." The disciples cupped their fists as they readily formed a group of five and began splitting off to capture the two sects.
As the disciples vanished from sight, Elder Chen Xue grinned evilly as he took out a communication device.
"Sect Leader, I have done everything you have asked for and everything is going along with the plan."
