C1252 They Had Lured the Tiger away from the Mountain
Countless Cultivator were lined up in rows and were coming from all directions. They were walking quickly on the charred land next to the Heavenly Heart Pavilion. At this moment, the huge pit had been filled up, and a tall platform that was more than 30 meters tall was erected on top of it. It was impossible to tell what was going on with the wooden steps connecting them. They were all Cultivators, and they didn't even walk up the steps. What was the point of designing this thing? It was a waste of money.
All the Cultivator, under the lead of their family leader or sect leader, walked into the reserved seats. The scene was so huge that it looked like they were holding an oath master assembly.
But the people with bright eyes knew that they were going to surrender...
At about six or seven o'clock in the morning, Zhuge hurried over on clouds in the sky. He landed on the high platform, on the upper side of the Penglai Island Paradise. The leaders of the top ten families and sects all went up to greet Zhuge and stood on both sides of Zhuge to provide him with the most solid support.
"Is everyone here?" Zhuge asked. Bai Yunloong nodded and said, "Everyone is here, but Loong Jianfei hasn't come yet. Damn it, could this kid really be a stone in a latrine? Stinky and hard, are you planning to fight to the end? Isn't he afraid that his clan will be destroyed?"
" Who knows, maybe this old brat's brain is fried " Beside him, a cultivation sect master who had never had a good relationship with Loong Jianfei said.
"Alright, let's not talk about it anymore." Zhuge waved his hand to stop his master's words. He snorted coldly in his heart. F * ck you, don't care if I won't save you if you court death yourself. The Dragon Gate of Penglai Island Paradise would soon become a thing of the past...
At this moment, the sound of footsteps could be heard all of a sudden. A dozen Cultivators quickly ran up to Zhuge and said in a hurry, "Something happened to the old man. I don't know where the people of Dragon Gate went yesterday. You asked us to keep an eye on them, but last night, they disappeared without anyone knowing. If it wasn't for this morning, our people would have thought that Dragon Gate was too quiet. They felt that something was wrong. They probably wouldn't have noticed this even if they went in to take a look..."
"What? The dragon sword has disappeared."
Everyone exclaimed in unison. No, this wasn't just the disappearance of Loong Jianfei. The entire dragon gate had vanished into thin air. This was the problem. The size of the Dragon Gate could be considered a sect, and it was considered a first-rate power in the Penglai Island Paradise. There were at least eight thousand people in total. How could such a large scale of people vanish into thin air? How could this be possible? Besides, this was the result of being watched.
"What are you guys doing? I asked you to keep an eye on them, but you lost them. What's the point of having you?" Bai Yunloong immediately flew into a rage. He slapped the face of the Cultivator in front of him and cursed.
He couldn't help but get angry. This wasn't just Loong Jianfei alone, but the entire family. With such a large group of people, how could it be possible for him to vanish into thin air?
At this moment, Zhuge, who was deep in thought, suddenly frowned. He asked hastily, "Did you see any movement at the Dragon Gate yesterday night? What happened after Loong Jianfei returned? Did anyone go out during this period?"
"No!" The man hurriedly said, "Even a fly couldn't go out, but we still couldn't find it. What do you think is going on?"
"Can they disappear into thin air?" the man asked. Bai Yunloong slapped his thigh and said anxiously, "Could it be that Loong Jianfei is planning to hide with his family? He is going to fight Hee Feng in secret, right? How did he do it? This doesn't make sense..."
"That's right, could it be that he has a teleportation formation in his home?" Another person said.
"How is that possible?" Bai Yunloong coldly harrumphed and said, "There are only three teleportation formations in Penglai Island Paradise. How can one of them appear out of thin air?"
"What's going on with this?" Everyone felt a chill run down their spines. Just at this moment, zhuge suddenly widened his eyes and said, "Then, when you guys left, did some people continue to watch?"
"Leave the servants to continue watching?" The Cultivator, who was keeping watch, was stunned for a moment. Then, it shook its head and said, "No, no, no. If something like this happens, we'll quickly report it to you. How would we dare to delay there..."
"Silly!" Zhuge slapped his thigh and scolded angrily.
He hurriedly said, "Don't just stand there. Quickly go over there and take a look. I reckon that we've fallen into their trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain. Loong Jianfei purposely hid all of them, making us think that they have already escaped. Little did we know that they were just hiding. Once our people leave, they will immediately move away. Such a simple trick, you all actually don't know about it?"
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and leave!" Bai Yunloong also reacted and hurriedly said.
It was obvious that Zhuge had guessed right. His guess was not bad at all. Just like his ancestor, Zhuge Liang, it could be considered a divine plan. That's right, Loong Jianfei didn't escape. The entire Dragon Gate was still there. However, they were hiding in an underground space that was built in the early years of their family. It was able to isolate the Spiritual Consciousness from the outside world.
It was another space that their ancestors dug out in the space.
It was like a cabinet that had been dug out from the wall.
Hiding inside, one would not be able to see anything from the outside. That was why the person sent by Zhuge to keep an eye on them would think that they had already left.
But in reality, they did not. Instead, they stayed here and waited...
"Father, are we really going to fight Hee Feng and the others?" Long Wenzhang asked his father. Loong Jianfei shook his head and said, "How is that possible? Although this old man is old, I'm not old and muddle-headed. Do you think I am stupid? I am not that stupid. His father just felt that surrendering with everyone was too creative. Rather than that, we might as well surrender before them. There doesn't seem to be much difference between first and second. However, the meaning behind it was much greater. If Zhuge surrendered first, if we surrender first, he will be the one who will be put in an important position in the future. In the future, the Zhuge Family will forever be under the feet of our Dragon Gate..."
" So that's how it is! " Long Wen said in surprise. He was somewhat impressed by his father's acting skills. During this period of time, he had been hiding it from his father. He had thought that his father was senile and muddle-headed. He wanted to fight with Hee Feng and the others to the death, but he didn't expect his father to be so good at acting.
As soon as he finished speaking, the butler outside rushed over to report, "The old master is done. Everyone has left. We are waiting for the two of you..."
"Alright, we will leave now!" Long Wenzhang nodded and said. The two of them were covering the rear.
