Sole Sword Supremacy-Chapter 507 - 511: Who’s the Fool?

In just a short moment, Wang Junze was thrown into the Inverted Mountain by the whale.

Entering the Inverted Mountain along with him were Situ Haokong and Yang Hong; the whale kept its word and indeed took everyone into the Inverted Mountain together.

In fact, apart from Wang Junze and Peng Ru, it was the first time for everyone else to come to the Inverted Mountain as well. This peculiar scene equally left everyone in awe.

"Buzz!"

The Sword Edge trembled slightly, and this time, Wang Junze did not direct others to act but directly grasped the Profound Ice Sword, aiming it straight at Situ Haokong.

Compared to before, Situ Haokong seemed much more relaxed at this moment. Meeting Wang Junze’s gaze, he softly spoke, "Ye Piaoling, you are indeed remarkable, but... do you really think you can deceive everyone so easily?"

"You would rather die than reveal the whereabouts of Li Shang Sword Venerable, yet... as long as you want to save someone, you will eventually expose your location." Situ Haokong continued, "Do you truly believe these companions of yours are all that trustworthy?"

"..."

For a moment, Wang Junze’s expression appeared extremely cold, yet he ultimately said nothing in response.

Trustworthy?

He himself wasn’t sure, otherwise, he wouldn’t have wanted to abandon the others and enter the Inverted Mountain alone earlier.

The interests represented by Qu Lishang were simply too great, and the causality involved was too much.

Boom!

Without waiting for others to answer, Monk Benyin and Night Spirit Demon Venerable also appeared in the Inverted Mountain.

These two Saint Realm Powerhouses didn’t need the whale, they could break into the Inverted Mountain through their own strength.

"What an Inverted Mountain, after all these years in the Nether Sea, I didn’t know there was such an Ancient Ruin beneath this Netherworld Abyss!"

A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth as Night Spirit Demon Venerable slowly spoke, "Ye Piaoling, I really must thank you for leading the way, otherwise... I truly couldn’t have found this place."

"Master Benyin, do you intend to go back on your word?"

Not paying attention to Night Spirit Demon Venerable, Wang Junze turned his gaze to Monk Benyin and asked in a deep voice.

"Amitabha Buddha!"

Softly reciting a Buddhist chant, Monk Benyin shook his head slightly and answered calmly, "Wang Tanyue misunderstood. A monk does not tell lies; since this poor monk has promised you, I will not go back on it!"

"This poor monk promises not to let Night Spirit Demon Venerable interfere; however, you must quickly help Li Shang Sword Venerable recover, or... once other Saints arrive at the Inverted Mountain, this poor monk will be powerless."

Though he let Night Spirit Demon Venerable be here, in reality, Monk Benyin had no intention of going back on his word.

But whether Qu Lishang could be saved depended on Wang Junze, whether he could deal with the others. If he couldn’t, then... once Qu Lishang perished, he wouldn’t mind intervening to seize the Great Nether Mirror from Qu Lishang’s hands.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Junze’s gaze landed on the others again as he slowly spoke, "I am thankful to all who have come this far with me. Now... who is still willing to join me in slaying Situ Haokong?"

"Young Master Wang, I’m sorry!"

After a moment of silence, Lin Qiushui suddenly spoke.

"???"

Heart skipping a beat, Wang Junze looked at Lin Qiushui somewhat incredulously.

The Blood Covenant?!

Back then, to ensure Lin Qiushui and the others wouldn’t rebel, Wang Junze watched them personally sign the Blood Covenant. Because of this guarantee, Wang Junze dared to trust them.

But now, Lin Qiushui dared to refuse him. Could it be that he truly wasn’t afraid of the Blood Covenant’s backlash?

"Are you relying on this?"

Raising his head slightly, Night Spirit Demon Venerable suddenly pinched a Blood Covenant with his fingertips and said lightly, "Ye Piaoling, perhaps you didn’t know... this Blood Covenant, in the first place, was given to Dugu Feng by me. Do you think I might have a way to break it?"

A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth as Night Spirit Demon Venerable posed the question back.

"..."

This sentence made Wang Junze’s heart tremble fiercely.

In an instant, Wang Junze suddenly remembered that Qu Lishang had once said the Blood Covenant was a contract from the Ancient Demon Sect. Such a thing naturally couldn’t belong to the Judgment Department; only a Demon Path powerhouse like Night Spirit Demon Venerable would have this kind of thing!

The Blood Covenant was initially found on Dugu Feng. At that time, Dugu Feng had already been killed, so naturally couldn’t have revealed the origin of the Blood Covenant. Wang Junze had somewhat over-relied on the binding power of the Blood Covenant.

Now, thinking back, the process of deceiving Night Spirit Demon Venerable before seemed too easy indeed.

Although Wang Junze did indeed make a lot of preparations, even deliberately made loopholes, letting Night Spirit Demon Venerable follow this clue, thinking he had grasped Wang Junze’s weakness, and forced him to yield, everything seemed so rational.

But in reality, could the Demon Venerable who had roamed the Nether Sea for so many years be truly that foolish?

From the very beginning, when Wang Junze deliberately let Lin Qiushui contact Night Spirit Demon Venerable, in fact, Night Spirit Demon Venerable had already become suspicious!

Moreover, the Blood Covenant was given to Dugu Feng by Night Spirit Demon Venerable. With his power, it wasn’t difficult to detect the traces of the Blood Covenant from Lin Qiushui. In this way... Night Spirit Demon Venerable had enough time to force the truth out of Lin Qiushui.

Instead, it was Wang Junze who, unable to foresee the dissolution of the Blood Covenant, foolishly thought everything was under his control.

Night Spirit Demon Venerable was just deliberately cooperating with Wang Junze, playing along in this performance, making him think everything was under control.

No, not just Lin Qiushui!

Earlier, on the way to the Netherworld Abyss, Wang Junze and Situ Haokong arrived on the Netherworld Flying Ship, during which... Liu Daoyu had also left his sight!

In other words, those released from the Blood Covenant were not only Lin Qiushui but also Liu Daoyu!

Both of them chose to deceive Wang Junze, completing this show.

Yes, if he had known earlier about Lin Qiushui and Liu Daoyu’s betrayal, then... knowing the hidden place of Qu Lishang might be exposed, Wang Junze would rather die than reveal the location of the Inverted Mountain.

One had to know, he had always been very cautious before, never even revealing to Monk Benyin the specific location of the Inverted Mountain, nor the way to enter it!

Unfortunately, because of the Blood Covenant’s dissolution, everything completely collapsed!

In an instant, Wang Junze’s face became exceedingly ugly.

Never did he expect that, in the end, the foolish one turned out to be himself.

As if to confirm Wang Junze’s speculation, the next moment, Liu Daoyu also fell beside Situ Haokong, a Divine Talisman appearing at his fingertips aimed at Wang Junze, and he softly spoke, "Wang Junze, concede! As long as you help the Demon Venerable kill Qu Lishang, all that happened before can be written off!"

"Indeed, Wang Junze, the previous conditions proposed by this Venerable still stand!"

"Kill Qu Lishang, retrieve the Great Nether Mirror, and this Venerable can also help you kill Prince Yu!"
