Zhang Lisheng watched her girlfriend leave and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor of the villa, smiling and waving goodbye to her. After she drove the black SUV out of the courtyard and disappeared, he walked back to the bed and muttered, "Ah, there seems to be no progress despite my cultivation. Sigh, looks like I must rely on other shortcuts if I want to become a Grand Wizard with my qualification. I wonder how the army of those short believers of mine is doing now? Then again, I think it'd take at least one month before it starts to take form…"

Even though he was criticizing his own bad qualifications, the young man, who had always believed in the saying 'diligence is the means by which one makes up for one's dullness', still jumped onto the waterbed and sat cross-legged on the white bedsheet to continue cultivating his secret method. It was only a series of phone ringing sounds resonating in the room that he finally snapped back to reality.

"It must be Trish…" The bluish green smoke mixed with yellow color behind him immediately disappeared into the air in an instant. Zhang Lisheng opened his eyes and muttered as he picked up the phone from the bedside table.

When he saw an unfamiliar number on the screen, he frowned and refused to pick it up. He threw the phone beside him and when he was about to cultivate again, his phone rang again before he could even manage to adjust his breathing.

"Good morning, I'm Zhang Lisheng. May I know who are you?" This time, the young man picked up the phone directly and asked.

Extending along the invisible electric wave, on the third floor of a simple youth hostel that was only a kilometer away from the villa where Zhang Lisheng lived, when a young man with a pair of long slanted eyes and tall nose bridge who looked like a dress would suit him more than a thick blue denim shirt heard that Zhang Lisheng had picked up the phone, a well-thought-out smile appeared on his face.

"Our opponent is a person who looks as though he's very polite and cautious but in actual fact, he's arrogant and conceited. His behavior is usually influenced by his subjective emotions. Judging from this, it should be easy for him to fall into the trap," the young man covered the phone and whispered confidently to the nervous faces of his Gate's comrades surrounding him.

After that, he released his palm and raised his volume. Keeping in line with the bustling noise simulated by a phone application, he stuttered in panic in a California accent, "I-Is this D-Dr. Zhang? Oh, thank goodness! I-I finally got through a call… Dr! Dr! Listen to me, I'm an entourage of Miss Tina. We, we've encountered an attack from a kind of weird creature and they came from the u-underground. Please call the police, p-please immediately…" 

When he reached this part, the blue-denim wearing man suddenly slammed the phone to the ground and smashed it.

"Junior Brother Yu, you haven't even finished talking yet. W-What are you doing? Are you crazy…" A burly man with a square face, round nose, thick brows and big eyes, who was listening by the side to this Junior Brother, who had a lot of ideas, spouting nonsense was taken by surprise by the phone smashing till he almost jumped. Loudly, he shouted at him.


"Senior Brother Zhang, it doesn't matter whether I finish the sentence or not 'cause that man who shares the same surname with you can figure out all by himself. Sometimes, we need to take into consideration everything, from favorable climate, geographical position to manpower support when we make up a lie. This is the US. Other than having manpower support, we don't have the other two aspects at all. We'll only give away ourselves more if we talk more," the man wearing the blue denim smiled and explained.

"Senior Brother Qihu, Junior Brother Longyu is right. Sometimes we would spill more beans if we talk more," Lu Shangyou sat cross-legged on the top bunker of a double decker opposite the young man while replying in a solemn expression. A glimpse of a strange expression flashed across his eyes and disappeared in a flash as he nodded and said, "This time it's all thanks to his ingenuity that our Masters have finally allowed us to make our move on the successor of the ancient witchcraft, a move that was very hard to come by. For this reason, we'll just listen to his instructions!"

"Senior Brother Lu, you flatter me," Yu Longyu quickly waved his hand and bowed to Lu Shangyou. "The reason Senior Brother did not see that there were two sides to the incident was because you were upset over the calamity encountered by Senior Brother Tianliang. When it comes to strategy of killing and fighting, you're counted among the best among the young generation in the Gate instead. It should be me who listen to you."

More than ten days before, not knowing Zhang Lisheng's special identity yet, Lu Shangyou, who coveted his eyes on fame and power, and promised Li Xiangzhou to get rid of him, went to learn about the young man's influence in the US. At once, he fell into a dilemma.

If he carried out his promise, he would no longer be regarded as important by his Masters if it affected the Gate's prosperous plan. However, if he went back against his promise, his prestige among the young generations in the Gate would be greatly reduced and it would definitely be difficult for him if he wanted to make a difference in the future.

Just like this, Lu Shangyou became stuck in the same spot, unable to move forward or backtrack. In the end, he could only be frank and share his difficulty. In the end, his comrades of the same Gate also fell into the same dilemma. Those passionate people filled with enthusiasm believed that they must avenge the tragedy suffered by their comrade now that such an opportunity presented itself while those composed people felt that they should still focus on the overall situation. 

Just when everyone was arguing with each other and fell into a deadlock, Yu Longyu suddenly burst out laughing and said that there was nothing difficult about the situation. They only needed to inform their Masters, who possessed the power to influence the rise and fall of the Gate, that the successor of the ancient witchcraft who killed Zheng Tianliang was here in Noah World, their Masters would most likely come up with a plan for them to kill him. By that time, they would have the best of both worlds.

The instant his words left his mouth, everyone immediately realized that they could actually draw a diametrically opposite conclusion if they view at the same issue from a different point of view.

Originally, that successor of the ancient witchcraft mastered many secret methods and was powerful but he was alone all by himself, not much of a threat to the entire Gate. Adding on to the fact that he lived in the US and had an identity as a well-known scholar, it was just not wise nor worth it for them to cross the ocean to take revenge for a dead disciple.

However, now that this person had become so powerful that he had the power to affect the Gate of Dao 's prosperity, whether had he done anything to damage the interests of the Gate of Dao or not, to the sages in the Gate of Dao, just his wizard identity alone meant that he deserved death. This was the principle of 'no extreme would hold strong for long'.

In fact, just like what Yu Longyu had speculated, after one week of receiving the report, the four Taoists, who had cultivated to the Heaven Ascending Stage with a strength as powerful as a Grand Wizard, came to New Mexico and concealed their movements to come to Noah World to be prepared to make their move.

At this time, it was not only Li Xiangzhou whose spirit was greatly lifted. Yu Longyu, who was the first person to inform this matter to their Masters and obtained his wish, also had his name greatly known. At the very least, what he did was much smarter than the rest of his companions.

At this time, Lu Shangyou, who was eccentric and had felt that he had become an idiot, was completely unhappy with this. It was because of this that he could not help but make some sarcastic remark before killing the successor of the ancient witchcraft. It was only when he heard Yu Longyu admit that Lu Shangyou was much superior that he finally felt much at ease. With a smile, he said, "You're too nice, Junior Brother Yu Longyu. The four Masters have long been ambushing in the mines so all of us are talents that make up for each other's flaws. We can't say who is listening to who…"

"He has left the town! He has left the town! That murderer is going out of the town…" Without warning, the room door was pushed open, and a young man with a protruding mouth and a chin like an ape's ran in before whispering eagerly in excitement.

"Which direction is he heading?" Upon hearing the news, Yu Longyu disregarded his modest towards Lu Shangyou and asked eagerly.

"The west. He's heading the west. I saw it with my own eyes that he's heading to the west AKA heaven!" The young man with a protruding mouth and a chin like ape's replied with his eyes widened. A glimpse of clear silver light appeared in his eyes. It was apparent that he had some strange sorcery on his body.

"Good! We'll wait for a while more before departing behind him. Give him an ambush in front and a chasing troop from behind," Upon seeing Yu Longyu's behavior, Lu Shangyou refused to be outdone and jumped down from the bed. With a clap of his hand, he said out loud.

"B-But, Junior Brother Lu, Masters told us to not act recklessly. Other than setting the trap, we should just let them deal with the rest, shouldn't we?" Zhang Qihu, who was next to him, said in bafflement.

"Senior Brother Zhang, Junior Uncle Yu did tell us not to act rashly but Senior Uncle Song has also said before that we can act according to circumstances," Lu Shangyou frowned and said. "We need to listen to both masters so that's why I said let that killer go fast first before we carefully follow behind him. When he finally reveals his true power, we can help our Masters strengthen their influence and stop him from fleeing. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"

Even though this was kind of far-fetched, it was somewhat reasonable too. Coupled with Lu Shangyou's eminent background in the Gate of Dao, nobody wanted to refute his majesty. Besides, the instant his words left his mouth, the genius Li Xiangzhou in the Gate also gritted her teeth in agreement, "Senior Brother Shangyou is right! We should go! Let's go…"

A few Gate of Dao disciples, who were much more composed and had different opinions, saw the ferocious look on the girl, who seemed as though she would not die in peace if he did not witness the death of that brutal successor of the ancient witchcraft, and just smiled wryly, exchanging looks with each other. Shaking their heads, they could only follow their comrades out of the hotel and separately entered the two old jeep that they had bought using false documents, before driving out of the city one after the other.

As the young disciples of the Gate of Dao who called themselves as the chasing troops departed, Zhang Lisheng, who was regarded as prey, had already driven in the deep desert.

Not long ago, after he received a phone call, he immediately called Tina to verify, but he found that the girl's mobile phone could not be connected.

The young man did not know that it was because his reception was interrupted by a radio wave jammer inside an empty old tattered yellow car outside of the villa. After spending a few seconds of slight contemplation, he hurriedly put on his clothes and jumped out to the yard from the window of the second floor.

Disregarding the astonished look from the maid, he ran to the garage and took a Porsche sand cruising car. He searched on the navigator on the control board and found that there was indeed a landmine bookmarked in it. It was about 100 kilometers west of New Washington A. Without any hesitation, he rapidly drove to the mine outside the city.

The sand cruising car made from an off-road Jeep had a huge tire that was out of proportion with the body. Even though it could not be too fast driving on the soft sand, it was still unusually stable and could maintain a relative high uniform speed. Unwittingly, he had already driven through half the journey.

The closer he was to the destination, the more Zhang Lisheng unconsciously felt uneasy. He had not felt this dangerous intuition for a long time but according to his experience, he knew that the danger he would face was likely to be fatal.
