As Aizen in Naruto and Joined a Chat Group Chapter 538: The Bitter Scheme?

Stomp, stomp, stomp.

Li Mochou’s steps were light and unhurried. But for Zuo Lengchan, each of her steps felt like it landed squarely on his heart. With a heavy pressure, the leader of the Five Mountains sect felt an unspeakable sense of suffocation.

"Still not drawing your sword?" Li Mochou’s lips curved into a cold, faint smile. "If I take another step forward, you won’t even have the chance to draw your sword."

"Amitabha." Seeing Zuo Lengchan reduced to a quivering wreck, Fang Zheng recited a Buddhist chant. "Li Mochou, please wait. May this old monk offer a word. Leader Zuo has already..."

"Monk Fangzheng, are you going to stop me?" Li Mochou didn’t listen to the rest of his words, merely tilting her head and asking.

"This old monk only hopes Mochou will not create more bloodshed." Fang Zheng said earnestly, his tone sincere.

"Oh, is that so?" Li Mochou sneered. "If that’s the case, why didn’t you stop the嵩山 (Songshan) righteous followers from ambushing the abbesses of the Hengshan sect outside Luoyang Gate?"

What?

Hearing this, Dingyi of Hengshan was struck as if by lightning. "Songshan righteous followers ambushed my Hengshan sect?"

"Yes, along the winding path you were about to ascend." Li Mochou smiled. "I imagine your esteemed Shaolin monks must have seen this, right?" Her gaze turned to Fang Zheng.

Fang Sheng’s expression faltered, and he angrily said, "You demoness, don’t..."

"Amitabha." Fang Zheng recited another Buddhist chant, interrupting his junior brother. "This old monk only learned of this afterward; it’s not that I didn’t want to stop it."

Did that really happen?

The crowd gasped, and they all turned to Zuo Lengchan with looks of disbelief.

"Zuo Lengchan, why would you do such a thing?!" Tianmen Daoist, who had previously been put in his place, stepped forward again and angrily questioned Zuo Lengchan.

Although this sect leader of the Taishan sect wasn’t highly skilled, he was a man of clear right and wrong. Zuo Lengchan’s actions were too dishonorable, making it impossible for him to stand by.

"It’s probably about merging the Five Mountains sects, isn’t it?" Yue Buqun seized the opportunity to kick him while he was down, laughing sinisterly.

If it were before, he might have shared the same idea as Zuo Lengchan and supported the merger of the Five Mountains sects. But he would have found any way possible to contend for the position of leader of the Five Mountains, all for the resurgence of Hua Shan sect’s glory.

But now, with a powerhouse like Li Mochou suppressing them, he no longer dared. And looking at the current situation, Zuo Lengchan and his Songshan sect were definitely heading for history.

It would be better to use this opportunity to earn some favor in front of this great being.

"I never expected this. Truly, I never expected it," Dingyi said, not with anger, but with a deep sigh.

She had led her sect’s skilled members to Songshan, originally intending to help them. After all, to her, the Five Mountains sects were like brothers, and they should unite against enemies.

But she never imagined that the other party would "entertain" them in such a manner.

Seeing Dingyi of Hengshan’s disheartened look, the surrounding martial artists also felt a sense of shared empathy. As for why the ambush by the Songshan righteous followers had failed, they had a general idea.

Encountering this divine-like, demonic female Taoist, those attackers probably wouldn’t have seen the sun rise.

"Knowing that Songshan is so treacherous and wicked, Monk Fangzheng, you still want to protect them?" Li Mochou took another step forward, asking softly.

"I implore Li Mochou to consider the greater good. That demonic cult..."

*Slash.*

Before Fang Zheng could finish speaking, Li Mochou’s long sword had already swung out. Visibly, a fine crack appeared in the space between Zuo Lengchan’s eyebrows. His eyes widened, and his body crashed to the ground.

Gulp. Gulp.

Sounds of swallowing could be heard everywhere. Even though they had witnessed Ren Woxing being instantly killed earlier, the crowd was still overwhelmed with a sense of unreality.

"An interesting argument. Why should I consider your greater good?" Retracting her sword into its sheath, Li Mochou retorted. "In the end, you are all just bandits and bullies who excel at scheming. Do you even deserve to talk about a greater good?"

Bandits and bullies?

Everyone present exchanged glances. Was she generalizing? Although everyone felt extremely dissatisfied in their hearts, no one dared to retort. They didn’t believe their martial arts were superior to Zuo Lengchan and Ren Woxing.

Except for Ren Yingying.

This young lady had already emerged from her grief and stood up, facing Li Mochou. "You call others bandits and bullies, what about you? You use your superior martial arts to act so presumptuously, what does that make you?"

Hiss.

Zhang Zifeng, who had been trying to remain invisible, inhaled sharply seeing this young woman dare to speak so harshly to Li Mochou. Was this woman crazy, not afraid of death?

Mentally cursing Ren Yingying severely, Zhang Zifeng frantically searched his mind for a countermeasure.

If he were to confront Li Mochou at this moment, it would clearly be a death sentence. Based on his understanding of the martial arts world’s power levels, Li Mochou’s strength was at least at the Grandmaster level, possibly even Grandmaster of Grandmasters.

Although he didn’t believe Li Mochou from the Condor Heroes world would possess such power, the evidence was right before his eyes.

He could defeat beings like Ren Woxing and Zuo Lengchan, who were at the peak of the Houtian realm, but certainly not as casually and artfully as Li Mochou. He couldn’t even discern how she had made her moves.

Being unable to see her moves meant there was no way to defend. How could one fight such an opponent? It was a sure path to destruction!

As a transmigrator with a vast future ahead of him, Zhang Zifeng clearly didn’t want to die. With the system supporting him, he would eventually become an unimaginable existence. How could he stumble and fall in this mere world of Smiling, Proud Wanderer?

Hoo.

Having made up his mind, Zhang Zifeng reached out and slapped Ren Yingying. "Shut up! Fairy Li is vanquishing demons and upholding righteousness. How can you be so unreasonable?"

The sound of the slap was loud, echoing through the entire Songshan sect square. The surrounding martial artists all turned their gazes towards Zhang Zifeng, their expressions varied.

Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Holy crap!

Doujin Artist: Disgusting, buddy! I am truly disgusted by this!

The viewers in the live stream chat, who had witnessed this scene, immediately began to curse.

Soul Society’s Villain: Although I had mentally prepared for this, seeing it with my own eyes is still a bit unsettling. A scumbag, a truly disgusting creature.

Curly-haired Guy: Hey, hey, I don’t think we should jump to conclusions so quickly. Maybe this guy is just using a tactic to help Ren Yingying escape? I remember a scene like this in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, what was it called, the marinated meat scheme?

Doujin Artist: What marinated meat scheme, it’s called the bitter scheme!
