Upon hearing these words, Zuo Lianghao's sword-like eyebrows stood up, and his handsome face turned cold. He then said coldly, "Father, from the moment the Five Assistant Swords were stolen, you had many chances to send a message to Shen Qiang to stop him, but you didn't. Do you want me to die? Because you should know that I've been poisoned by Shen Qiang. If he dies, I will die too."
The Villa Master of Hidden Sword Villa cast a cold glance at him and said, "The Five Assistant Swords are Immortal Artifacts. They are held by five powerful figures of Hidden Sword Villa, who have attached their Divine Thoughts to the swords. Although it's uncertain where the Five Assistant Swords are before 3 a.m. today, the connection between them still exists."
"In the uncertainty of whether Shen Qiang has the ability to erase the Divine Thought imprint and take possession of the Five Assistant Swords, do you think he would believe us if we told him the truth?"
Zuo Lianghao remained silent.
Meanwhile, the Great Elder of Hidden Sword Villa said in a deep voice, "In the current situation, the reason we didn't directly inform Shen Qiang of the truth about the Five Assistant Swords is not because we don't care about the Young Master's safety. On the contrary, we are doing this to protect the Young Master."
"Because everyone has a rebellious side. Shen Qiang stole the Five Assistant Swords and erased the Divine Thought imprint, which means he has already decided to claim the Five Assistant Swords. At this moment, if we go to him and tell him not to use the Five Assistant Swords or he'll die, he definitely won't believe it."
"He would think we're trying to reclaim the Five Assistant Swords through deception, which would instead encourage him to try them. So now, how to handle this matter, we hope to get the Young Master's advice, because modern medicine is advancing every day, and we've already contacted the heir of Medicine King Valley. Even if Shen Qiang dies, the poison he inflicted might not be unresolvable."
"If the Young Master is unwilling to take this risk, then it's best for us to be indirect and convey this message to Shen Qiang through someone he trusts."
Zuo Lianghao laughed, "I understand. You hope for Shen Qiang to die but don't want people to think you are cold and heartless, uncaring for my life."
"Lianghao!" The Villa Master of Hidden Sword Villa shouted angrily, "Don't be so selfish. Although I am the Villa Master, the Villa belongs to all its members."
Zuo Lianghao laughed, "I understand what you mean. What you mean is that you want Shen Qiang to secretly use the Five Assistant Swords, and once he dies, you can attack Heshenghe. As for me, if I can be saved, then save me; if not, let me die a noble death."
Upon hearing these words, everyone present fell silent.
Zuo Lianghao chuckled, "Although I really dislike Shen Qiang, I hate him very much, but I have to admit, at least he is genuinely bad, bad enough to be bold, so if I could choose, I hope he dies in a one-on-one duel with me, shot dead by my Sword Array."
"But since you all think it would be more interesting to kill him with the Five Assistant Swords, then I will satisfy you." Saying this, Zuo Lianghao took out his phone from his pocket, directly called Shen Qiang, and put it on speaker.
The call connected.
Zuo Lianghao unceremoniously said, "Shen Qiang, listen carefully. The Five Assistant Swords of Hidden Sword Villa are supreme Magical Treasures. I know that you erased the Divine Sense of the Five Assistant Swords at dawn, so I guess you're probably planning to use them in a Sword Array."
"But I now warn you, our Five Assistant Swords are Supreme Immortal Artifacts, nearing divine existence; whoever uses them dies. So if you are smart, you better give up the attempt."
Inside the hall, a silence fell.
Everyone perked up their ears.
"Zuo Lianghao, are you joking with me? First, I don't understand what you're saying. Moreover, I think anyone in possession of the Five Assistant Swords would undoubtedly want to use them to construct a Sword Array. So am I to understand that you're using reverse psychology to force me to use the Five Assistant Swords sooner?"
Upon hearing Shen Qiang's words, everyone's eyes turned sharp.
Zuo Lianghao smiled, "Think whatever you want, I've told you the truth, believe it or not, listen carefully, to drive the Five Assistant Swords simultaneously, there is a prerequisite that your Divine Sense, when the Sea of Consciousness initially forms, can cover at least a five-mile radius."
"But we all know that no cultivator has such talent. The most powerful cultivator, when his Sea of Consciousness formed, only covered a range of three miles, and yet he eventually became a Supreme in the Cultivation World for three hundred years, and you, obviously, don't have that capability."
"Because even for a genius like me, when my Divine Sense formed, it only covered a range of six hundred meters, so don't try it, you might be a genius, but certainly not an unrivaled prodigy. If you just die like that, I'd find it very dull."
Hearing these words, the many members of Hidden Sword Villa in the hall showed complex expressions.
Because deep down, what they yearn for now is for Shen Qiang to commit suicide using the Five Assistant Swords.
So now hearing Zuo Lianghao's words, they are really worried that Shen Qiang might stop there, missing the opportunity to eliminate him.
"Oh, hearing you say this makes me more interested because, compared to the five-mile Divine Sense, I rather think you are trying to deceive me, because you should be aware, I would never believe you, so you made this call not to persuade me to stop but to urge me to start right away. Very well, you succeeded, I'm using the Five Assistant Swords now!"
As soon as the words ended.
Shen Qiang directly hung up the phone.
Zuo Lianghao looked gloomy, with a face full of frustration.
"Damn it, I was even thinking of perishing together with you, hoping to turn things around in this matter by gambling my own life, but even this intention was seen through by Shen Qiang. Sigh, it's just a pity, such a strong guy, while being incredibly powerful, is also too arrogant. As long as he uses the Five Assistant Swords, he's definitely dead."
While Zuo Lianghao was looking gloomy.
The people in the great hall of Hidden Sword Villa showed expressions of joy.
The Elder who spoke earlier stood up excitedly and said, "Congratulations to the Villa Master! Shen Qiang is too arrogant, and since he is ready to use the Five Assistant Swords, he will soon die. We can now unleash our best forces and infiltrate Heshenghe. Once we confirm he has died, we can immediately take action and defeat Heshenghe thoroughly."
"Hahaha," The Villa Master of Hidden Sword Villa laughed heartily, "Once Shen Qiang dies, Heshenghe will be mine. Lianghao, go see a doctor..."
"No, I want to go to Heshenghe," Zuo Lianghao said, "If he truly dies, I must see it with my own eyes."
"Good!" The Villa Master of Hidden Sword Villa laughed heartily, "You truly are my son, courageous. Hahaha, while the heron and clam contend, the fisherman benefits. Go, notify our elite forces, and follow me to attack Heshenghe!"
"Good!"
The people of Hidden Sword Villa shouted in unison, the roar full of killing intent frightened birds into flight.
Meanwhile, seeing Shen Qiang, who had hung up the phone, preparing to use the Five Assistant Swords, the enchanting and beautiful Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu nervously said, "Shen Qiang, since you've already heard that Zuo Lianghao is using reverse psychology to force you to use the Five Assistant Swords, why fall for his trick? My Divine Sense, when it first formed, was only eight hundred meters, so if the Sea of Consciousness is crushed, and the True Yuan runs wild, then it's a certain death!"
Looking at Sleeping Fire Lotus Demon Ke Bizhu's nervous eyes, Shen Qiang smiled, "When he didn't say anything, I was still afraid to act recklessly, but once he said it, I was not worried anymore because I am the unrivaled prodigy with a Divine Sense range of twenty miles!"
