Chapter 5: The Conflict of Ancient Divine Weapons

On this day, returning to the place of yesterday, they were indeed still gathering wool. At this time, Xiao Yun also saw Blood Blade. "Hey, what are you doing here again? Every time you come, something bad happens. Just look at yesterday; as soon as I saw you, I encountered that kind of situation. Hmph!" "I came to practice my gathering skills," Blood Blade said, telling a lie, feeling somewhat strange. How long had it been since he last told a lie? Probably a very long time. He had never cared about personnel matters within the gang, so there were some necessary lies he had avoided. As for others, how many people were worthy of him telling a lie? Feeling somewhat strange, he thought about how long it had been since he last told a lie. Probably a very long time. He had never cared about personnel matters within the gang, so there were some necessary lies he had avoided. As for others, how many people were worthy of him telling a lie? Xiao Yun looked at Blood Blade with confusion. "Aren't you practicing chopping trees? Why are you practicing gathering now?" "I practice everything," he replied. "That's great! They kill too quickly, and we don't have enough manpower. I was just worried about it. Come help us quickly."

Yi Yun finally woke up under the shouting of Sha, sitting up straight with a serious and solemn expression, which made Sha beside him stifle a laugh. At this moment, Shang Xin Duan Chang spoke up: "Calling everyone to stay is for an important matter to discuss. Everyone here is a person of understanding and naturally knows that opposing Ling Jiu Palace will lead to worse outcomes. However, if this continues, the morale of the alliance will become increasingly unstable, and some factions have already sided with the Shenzhou Gang. But if we rely solely on the three of us to provide support, it won't last long, as the entire alliance has millions of members, and this expense is certainly not a small amount. Although we have received funding from the Qian Gang, it is estimated that it will be difficult to last more than two months, so I hope everyone present can help share the pressure for the alliance." Yi Yun quietly cursed, "Damn, so it turns out to be about money." Sha shot Yi Yun a sideways glance and reproached softly, "Why speak like that? With so many people in the alliance, how can it be sustained by just the three leaders' gangs?" Although we have received funding from the Qian Gang, it is estimated that it will be difficult to last more than two months, so I hope everyone present can help share the pressure for the alliance." Yi Yun quietly cursed, "Damn, so it turns out to be about money." Sha shot Yi Yun a sideways glance and reproached softly, "Why speak like that? With so many people in the alliance, how can it be sustained by just the three leaders' gangs?"

Only when Ling Er stood before the 13,000 disciples did he suddenly recall something: could Chi Ying accept his current identity? Ling Er instructed the disciples to set off, as they all boarded the luxurious carriages of the sect, heading grandly towards Wudang Sect

The Sword of the Eighth Brave, known as Yuchang, is said to have been crafted by the master swordsmith Ouyezi for the King of Yue. It is made from tin from Chijin Mountain and copper from Ruoye Creek, having been refined through rain and thunder, thus obtaining the essence of heaven and earth

"Xiaoyun, is he your boyfriend? He seems to listen to you so well." "Pah! Would my boyfriend look as foolish as him?" "Not at all, he looks quite handsome and has a strong presence. Just yesterday, I thought he was a master of the first generation." Upon hearing this, Xiaoyun pouted, clearly in disagreement.

Chapter Seven: Blood Rain in the Jianghu

Regarding the massacre of nearly 20,000 junior disciples of the Wudang Sect, although many lives were lost, this incident has already been the subject of countless jokes among the slightly senior members of the martial arts community. To this day, those who still feel anger and resentment, expressing their dissatisfaction, are merely the junior disciples of Wudang who have recently entered the martial world.

In the clasp of both hands lies a sword hilt, with only the hilt visible, while the blade remains unseen. However, on the northern wall, a fleeting shadow of a sword is cast, which lasts only for a moment before vanishing with the arrival of daylight. Until dusk, as the sky darkens, at the very instant when day and night intertwine, that elusive sword shadow reappears. The raised hands trace an elegant arc, striking towards a tall ancient pine nearby. A soft "crack" is heard in the ear, the tree trembles slightly, yet no change is visible. Shortly thereafter, as the sky darkens, at the moment when day and night overlap, that fleeting sword shadow reemerges. The raised hands again carve an elegant arc, striking towards the tall ancient pine, and once more, a gentle "crack" is heard, the tree shudders slightly, but remains unchanged. Soon after, the lush pine canopy gently collapses in a soft breeze from the south, revealing the flat, exposed rings of growth, signifying the passage of time. As the sky darkens further, the long sword returns to formlessness, and the ancient twilight silently envelops the world, leaving a profound stillness between heaven and earth. This shadowy, formless long sword is the renowned sword "Chengying," praised by Liezi in "Liezi: Tangwen," forged in the Shang Dynasty and later collected by Kong Zhou of the State of Wei during the Spring and Autumn period.

The four, heartbroken and determined, fought desperately to create an opportunity for Yi Yun and the others to break through. They engaged in a few exchanges with the four from Bucun, and only then did both sides cease their attacks, adjusting their positions and fully committing to the upcoming decisive battle. Previously, one side intended to intercept while the other was fully entangled, with their thoughts not focused on the fight. Now, realizing that chasing after Bucun and the others was futile, they shifted their focus to how to eliminate their opponents.

Sha Yijian forcefully pushed his opponent back two steps, raising his energy to shoot a burst of qi towards a master from the Shenzhou Gang who was three meters to his side. The opponent was immediately severely injured, and the alliance master who was originally engaged in battle would not let such an opportunity slip by. They exerted all their energy to deliver several heavy strikes, causing this person to spit out several mouthfuls of blood, desperately resisting with their severely injured body, trying to survive for even a moment longer. Sha returned his sword to block the opponent's attack, and immediately raised his left hand to shoot out several Ice Soul Silver Needles. The opponent, startled, dodged to avoid them, but Sha seized the opportunity to thrust his long sword forward rapidly. The opponent hurriedly sidestepped in an attempt to evade, but still received a four-inch long, one-inch deep wound on their waist, with blood flowing incessantly. Sha's left palm quickly advanced to execute a small capture technique, but the opponent was quite formidable as well, enduring all of Sha's attacks despite the continuous injuries. With a roar, they raised their knife to counterattack, employing the Kunlun Sect's Thunder Knife Technique. Sha had already tested that the opponent's internal power was inferior to his own by two levels, so he immediately exerted his energy to withstand the attack, causing the opponent to stagger back two steps. Just as Sha was about to take the opportunity to strike again, a sudden burst of sword energy surged from the left behind him. Sha had been keeping a close watch on the surrounding movements, so he promptly abandoned his attack plan, spun to evade, and simultaneously threw a Jade Bee Needle towards the incoming sword energy. With a cry of agony, a Shenzhou master nearby was unable to dodge and was hit by several needles, immediately suffering excruciating pain, and was pierced through by the sword of the opponent who had just been lightly injured.

Eight people, each carrying one or two black wooden boxes, were filled with sorrow. The skilled individuals finally understood that this journey was to retrieve the ten ancient divine weapons. On this day, Sha, as usual, wore a pure white gauze dress and draped a deep purple cloak over her shoulders. Upon seeing Yi Yun, she immediately showed a joyful expression and trotted over. Yi Yun, unexpectedly warm, embraced Sha, causing everyone to smile gently and turn their heads away as if they had not seen anything. Yi Yun leaned close to Sha's ear and whispered, "I am fine. This sword was originally meant to be a gift for you. The current situation is more favorable, so I have placed it behind you. Be careful when you move, and do not injure yourself; the sword has only a hilt and no visible sheath. Also, do not tell anyone that this sword is in your possession. We will discuss the rest when we return, but be cautious from now on." After saying this, she gently kissed Sha on the forehead. Sha was filled with joy, and then she became curious about the mysterious ancient divine weapon hanging at her waist beneath the cloak. She desperately wanted to take it out and examine it but restrained her curiosity and did not dare to act.

Leng Ao Shuang said: "Our current condition is not good; it is best to cultivate and recuperate here. We should only go out when we have fully restored our state." Everyone nodded in agreement, and after consuming some of the water and dry rations they had brought with them, they sat down cross-legged to meditate.

On the stone platform stood a stone tablet, inscribed with the five large characters "Yue Wang Cang Jian Ge". Beneath the stone tablet lay a thin booklet, detailing the method to activate the mechanism, as well as the treasures hidden within several secret doors. The crowd opened the black wooden brocade box, revealing the ten ancient divine weapons before their eyes

The battle was raging fiercely when suddenly the experts from the Shenzhou Gang began to show signs of retreat. The members of the Alliance, not having received orders to pursue, allowed them to leave. In fact, since the enemy had the intention to retreat, even a forced pursuit would yield little result. When both sides are evenly matched and the opponent is desperately trying to escape, how could it be so easy to hunt them down? This was not a battle of thousands or tens of thousands. The experts of the Alliance were counting their casualties while tending to their own injuries, and then began to tally the spoils of war. The belongings of their own people were to be returned to the deceased, while the enemies' items were to be submitted to headquarters. Rewards would be distributed based on military merit, and those who did not receive a share would still be granted a substantial bonus. The deceased would also receive a significant compensation, nearly enough to cover all the costs required to fully train their martial arts again. Those who had previously been helped by Sha came to express their gratitude, unanimously praising Sha's strength. Sha wore a smile and humbly said a few words, but could not help but recall some of Yi Yun's words. After the great battle, only the living are heroes; those who died in battle would at most receive some comfort from friends, a few kind words from the Alliance, and a moment of sympathy from others. Sha gently placed his hand on the hilt of the sword given to him by Yi Yun, thinking that the tough guy would surely be fine, as he would sacrifice others to save himself, so there was no need for him to worry too much. A slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he chatted with a few close friends about their experiences on the battlefield.

The chaotic battle at the foot of the mountain was exceedingly intense, with nearly every participant being among the top ten masters of various sects in the martial world. The number of combatants was vast, and the disparity in their strengths was minimal, making life and death often hinge on the capriciousness of luck. When both sides unleashed their energy simultaneously, if a particularly unfortunate individual happened to be targeted by two or more opponents at once, they would either be gravely injured or left lying on the ground, if not dead. After a flurry of exchanges, several individuals from both sides had already fallen, and as the distance closed, they engaged in close-quarters combat. For ordinary martial artists, a chaotic battle of this scale would suffice within a space of two hundred meters, yet for these masters, even an expansion to two thousand meters would still seem inadequate.

Blood Blade was born in Dali City, where he has countless joyful memories with brothers and past friends. Therefore, whenever he can find the time, he returns to Dali to stroll around and relax. On this day, as usual, he returned to Dali. Due to the recent rampant slaughter by the Lingjiu Palace, the Shenzhou Gang has abandoned a large number of businesses, and many members have gathered at the headquarters, resulting in an unusually quiet atmosphere.

Section 4, Death Struggle

"Sister Leng, please come in." With a somewhat anxious heart, Leng Aoshang followed the attendant leading the way towards Xi'er’s courtyard. As a representative of the Lingjiu Palace from the alliance, if she could not persuade Xi'er, it would be difficult for her to find her own place once the massacre against the alliance commenced. It was impossible to go against Xi'er’s will, but could she really lead a group of Lingjiu Palace members to slaughter the people of the alliance?

Section Nine, The Love of the Blood Blade

The Sword of Integrity and Purity, known as the Seven Stars Longyuan, is said to have been forged by the two great swordsmiths, Ou Yezi and Gan Jiang. To create this sword, Ou Yezi and Gan Jiang opened up Mount Ci, releasing the stream from within the mountain and directing it to the seven pools arranged in the shape of the Big Dipper beside the sword-forging furnace, hence the name "Seven Stars." After the sword was completed, looking down at the blade was akin to standing atop a high mountain and gazing into a deep abyss, ethereal and profound, as if a giant dragon were coiled within. This is known as "Longyuan." After the sword was completed, looking down at the blade was akin to standing atop a high mountain and gazing into a deep abyss, ethereal and profound, as if a giant dragon were coiled within. This is known as "Longyuan."

As Rong'er was laughing and chatting, her teacup suddenly fell to the ground, and immediately, both Yue'er and Ling'er changed their expressions dramatically. The three of them received a message from Le'er in succession: "Tell Xi'er that I was surrounded and killed by a group from the Alliance." Rong'er shouted in near fury: "Who is it?" "Tell Xi'er that I was surrounded and killed by a group from the Alliance," Le'er had said. Rong'er, almost beside herself with rage, exclaimed: "Who is so bold as to dare to lay hands on you!" "It's the Anti-Divine Alliance, some martial artists who were neutral in the past and have just joined. There were more than thirty skilled fighters among them. Initially, there were only a few dozen, but later they gathered over ten thousand to besiege me. After exhausting my internal energy, I still died. I had brought a substitute doll with me, but after they killed me, they became even more reckless, running to the city where I revived and killed me again. Now I can only start over from scratch." Rong'er was filled with unparalleled anger. Since she, Le'er, and Xi'er entered the Chaotic Era, such a thing had never happened. Although Le'er spoke in an extremely calm tone, both Rong'er and Yue'er knew how much pain Le'er was truly feeling inside. There were some secrets unknown to the outside world; among the few of them, Le'er had the second highest cultivation level after Xi'er, and some things could only be accumulated through countless blood, sweat, and time, not merely through self-cultivation. "Le'er, you must not be disheartened. Train your martial arts; Xi'er will definitely help you quickly regain your lost strength," said Rong'er. Le'er replied in a steady tone: "I know, and I will. I want to take revenge, so I will go practice now and will not open the communication channel for these days." Rong'er, filled with extreme hatred, declared: "We will definitely make you satisfied!"

Section 6, Black Pot

When the two sides were about ten meters apart, Yi Yun unleashed all her energy through the sword in her hand, sending forth a powerful strike. Blood Blade was momentarily taken aback, but Yi Yun retreated three steps, spitting out a small mouthful of blood. Without waiting for Blood Blade to react, she swung her sword with all her might. Blood Blade, slightly startled, raised his knife to block, but Yi Yun, disregarding her internal injuries, launched a relentless series of rapid attacks with her sword, gradually forcing Blood Blade to struggle. Yi Yun's speed was too fast, each strike infused with full power. After several hard clashes, Blood Blade's form wavered, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of Yi Yun's mouth as she swung her sword once more. This time, Blood Blade's knife was deflected slightly by the impact. Yi Yun's sword thrust forward rapidly, evidently three points faster than before, piercing through the gap created by her injuries and stabbing into Blood Blade's chest. As the sword penetrated, she immediately leaped back, and Blood Blade's counterattack was rendered ineffective, leading to his downfall. His robust body slowly collapsed to the ground, blood spraying from his chest like fireworks.

Fixing one's gaze firmly on the blade's tip at the end

Blood Blade fell into deep thought upon hearing this and replied, "You make a valid point. I remember the first time I killed my enemy; the joy of revenge lasted only a brief moment, followed by a sense of lonely confusion. Suddenly, the opponent I had despised for so long was gone, and that feeling was quite uncomfortable." "Therefore, I am very grateful, and besides, you are a person worthy of respect." As Yi Yun spoke, her tone carried a hint of gentleness. Blood Blade laughed heartily, "In fact, you make me feel even more respect. There are no fewer than a few thousand people seeking revenge against me, yet only you have a purpose that differs from the others. By the way, I have something I would like to request of you." Yi Yun smiled and said, "You need not say anything; you are just A Niu, a new member who has recently joined the manor." Blood Blade immediately revealed a relieved smile, and the two walked side by side into the inn. "Did you not buy anything?" Xiao Yun asked in confusion. "It has already been loaded onto the manor master's carriage," Blood Blade casually replied, and Xiao Yun appeared to understand.

In front of the tomb, the eight individuals, led by the heartbroken and grief-stricken one, surveyed their surroundings in eight different directions. After confirming that there were no ambushes nearby, they gathered in one place. "The entrance to the tomb has been sealed by us. Once we enter, we must be especially cautious, as there are still many highly skilled guards near the mechanism activation point. We must not be careless, and absolutely must not get separated; otherwise, the consequences could be dire." Everyone nodded in agreement, watching as the heartbroken one busied himself in the dense underbrush. After a moment, he lifted a large stone, revealing an underground passage. Once everyone had lit their torches and entered, a skilled companion moved the stone back to seal the entrance, and then they found a concealed spot to monitor the surrounding situation.

"Sha, this mission is very dangerous, especially since you need to confront the experts from the Shenzhou Gang head-on. Bring the three dolls from the money house with you, just in case." Sha couldn't help but feel a wave of sweetness and said, "You should definitely take one; have you forgotten what happened with Xi'er last time? We almost didn't make it back alive." Yiyun shook her head in refusal, "I can't take one. We will be facing the small knives, and bringing the dolls would actually hinder what I need to do. With a substitute doll, I wouldn't be so afraid of death. If I develop a fighting spirit against the small knives, it would greatly affect the mission. What I need to do is merely to hold them back, not to fight desperately." However, Sha insisted, insisting that Yiyun take one. Yiyun was truly at her wit's end with Sha's insistence and had no choice but to reluctantly agree. After packing her belongings, she insisted that Sha stay behind and then left the villa alone towards the assembly point. Sha's mission was set to depart three days later than Yiyun's; otherwise, if a large number of experts left at once, it would certainly raise suspicions. She could only silently pray for Yiyun's safety on this journey.

Yiyun was extremely pleased, as this was indeed an unexpected gain. Originally, she had a strong desire to propose the use of the legendary swords, Ganjiang and Moye, but considering that it would be equivalent to taking two swords, which would be difficult for the others to accept, she chose to use the sword she deeply favored, Chengying. To her surprise, there was such an extraordinary phenomenon. Yiyun shouted loudly and leaped up, channeling her energy into the sword as she thrust it towards the granite wall. She felt almost no resistance, and only the sword hilt was visible. Yiyun exerted her strength to retract the sword, and a deep hole was suddenly revealed on the stone wall, pierced by the sword. Unable to contain her laughter, she exclaimed, "Haha, Chengying, you truly live up to your reputation!" Everyone congratulated her, and after testing the swords one by one, they all expressed their admiration. Yiyun, with an excited expression, played with the hilt of her sword, feeling a bit shy to speak. After dozens of deep holes were made in the granite wall by the divine weapon, she finally returned each sword to the brocade box, binding them with cowhide ropes. Only Yiyun openly requested to directly take and use the sword, and everyone had already agreed that this sword belonged to her, so they all gladly consented.

How could I not feel joy? I truly never expected that one day I would receive such treatment. "Senior Sister Xie Xier!" "Hehehe..."

Upon arriving at a wool collection site, I observed a group of men and women, all wearing the same insignia, engaged in their respective tasks. The men were responsible for slaughtering the sheep, while the women collected the wool. Suddenly, I recognized one of the women, who looked particularly familiar. Upon closer inspection, it was the cute girl I had encountered three months ago, who was both headstrong and innocent. Intrigued, I used my lightness skill to leap onto a nearby dense tree, watching from a distance. "It seems this foolish girl has found a decent gang, and she is getting along quite well with the members." The woman was laughing and chatting with her companions while collecting wool, occasionally adopting a mildly angry posture to scold a teasing man. The man, however, showed no offense, playfully pretending to be scared, which made the woman beam with pride.

Ning Wang spoke a few formalities, and after everyone congratulated one another, the Heartbroken continued, "Regarding another matter, I believe everyone has received the system notification just now. Therefore, I hope each faction can quickly send back their experts to the sect and compile the accurate cultivation conditions, as this is extremely important for the future strength development of the alliance." After another round of discussion among the crowd, the Heartbroken added, "There is also another matter. I believe everyone is aware of the Blood Blade from the Shenzhou Gang. I have just received news that he has resigned from all positions within the Shenzhou Gang and announced his retirement." Upon hearing this, the crowd was in an uproar. The astonishment was no less than that of the Qian Gang's joining. The reputation and status of the Blood Blade in the martial world are well known, and his position within the Shenzhou Gang is exceptionally high. His retirement will have an immeasurable impact on the Shenzhou Gang. As the head of the Blade Hall and an elder of the Shenzhou Gang, he has managed one-fifth of the affairs of the Shenzhou Gang for many years and is a representative figure of the Blood Blade Sect. While the crowd was lively in discussion, a gloomy voice mixed with internal energy reached everyone's ears, "May I ask if the alliance leader knows where he has retired to? I want to kill him!" The crowd turned their gaze and realized that the speaker was actually Yi Yun, whose face was cold and filled with murderous intent. They speculated about the gap in strength between Yi Yun and the Blood Blade. The Heartbroken and King Kong exchanged glances and then said, "Currently, it is said that he is in Dali. According to the intelligence, he will stay for a few days with his newlywed wife, but where he will go afterward is uncertain."

Section 5, The Linked Strategies

Indeed, Alliance Leader, if we do not put a stop to the actions of the madwomen from Lingjiu Palace, our Heroes' Association will not be able to endure. In an instant, the leaders of various factions began to voice their grievances, and the heartbroken Shang was increasingly irritated by their complaints. He shouted, "Enough, everyone, stop talking and settle down. The reason I have called you all here today is to reach a decision on this matter." The meeting hall fell silent, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Sha gently nudged Yi Yun, saying, "Hey, Yi Yun, it seems like we are having a serious meeting today." Yi Yun, barely opening her eyes, replied softly, "If he had a solution, he would have had it long ago. Listening to his nonsense is less productive than practicing my skills." Sha was instantly exasperated and shouted again, "Enough, everyone, stop talking and settle down. The reason I have called you all here today is to reach a decision on this matter." The meeting hall fell silent once more, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Sha gently nudged Yi Yun again, saying, "Hey, Yi Yun, it seems like we are having a serious meeting today." Yi Yun, still too lazy to open her eyes, replied softly, "If he had a solution, he would have had it long ago. Listening to his nonsense is less productive than practicing my skills." Sha was left speechless and had to give up on the idea of making Yi Yun pay attention to the meeting, instead listening intently by himself.

The Tenth Exquisite and Elegant Sword, Shadow of the Blade

It was particularly busy; the efficiency of slaughtering sheep today was quite high. Two of the sisters who were supposed to assist were unable to come due to other commitments, leading to a severe shortage of manpower. In the midst of this urgency, Xiao Yun became somewhat flustered and hurriedly ran towards the toolbox. As she slipped, she nearly fell to the ground. "Ah! The sheep's blood has stained my sleeve!" Xiao Yun was supporting a dead sheep with both hands, and the pressure from her hands caused the blood to splatter all over her cuffs. The Blood Blade's eyes inexplicably became moist as he quickly approached and said, "Once you're done, I'll take it to wash." Startled, Xiao Yun exclaimed, "Ah! The sheep's blood has stained my sleeve!" She was still supporting the dead sheep, and the pressure from her hands caused the blood to splatter all over her cuffs. The Blood Blade's eyes inexplicably became moist again as he quickly approached and said, "Once you're done, I'll take it to wash." Xiao Yun was taken aback and immediately pouted, saying, "It's none of your business! You annoying brat, I don't want to see you!" The Blood Blade suddenly embraced Xiao Yun, softly saying, "Marry me!" People around them turned to look at the two, and the Blood Blade repeated loudly, "Marry me!"

The two dismounted from the carriage and, as agreed, found Yue'er already waiting at the designated spot. Beside her stood Xi'er, dressed in a striking red outfit, causing Ling's heart to race as he secretly worried for Chi Ying. If Xi'er were to suddenly be in a bad mood and decide to harm Chi Ying, even Yue'er would be unable to persuade her. Chi was very polite as he greeted Yue'er and Xi'er, while internally he was also breaking into a cold sweat. Yue'er subtly signaled to Ling and said, "Chi Ying, today's outing plan has been canceled. You should head back first, and we can play together another time." Ling discreetly pinched Chi Ying, who immediately understood and politely took his leave from Yue'er and Xi'er, all the while feeling a sense of urgency. Once Chi Ying exited the inn, Ling noticed that Xi'er still did not move, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

After the meal, Yi Yun reluctantly boarded the carriage returning to the capital amidst the farewells of the crowd. "Until we meet again!" "Goodbye, Master Zhuang!" Yi Yun lowered the side window of the carriage, and the coachman immediately shouted, urging the horses to gallop towards the capital.

Sha chuckled softly, "He did it on purpose, he just doesn't want you to understand Chengying. At that time, no one could see the body of Chengying's sword, so naturally, no one could determine its length. Yi Yun thought that this would create an unexpected effect when I eventually used it, because the true length of the sword is known only to him and me." Xiaolongnv was immediately taken aback, "That guy, despite having a pair of seemingly pure eyes, turns out to be so deep in scheming..." Sha was not a person who spoke without thinking, but Xiaolongnv was definitely the person Sha trusted the most, a trust that even surpassed the trust born from love for Yi Yun. Since she joined the ancient tomb as a child, Xiaolongnv regarded Sha as her own, sharing all secrets without reservation. Therefore, Sha did not hide anything from Xiaolongnv either. Sha believed that if there was someone who would always protect him, it would definitely be Xiaolongnv, and of course, Sha also believed that Yi Yun would do the same. After playing with it for a while, Xiaolongnv spoke, "However, Yi Yun's idea is indeed good. If you use Chengying in the future, it will likely pose a tremendous threat to anyone. A careless move could lead to great losses. I originally planned to learn the Anran Sihun Palm in the future if possible, but now with the Qixing Longyuan, I have decided to practice the Xuan Tie Sword Technique instead. During this time, I just can't show my face, so I plan to find a secluded place to study and learn all the sword techniques of the sect first." Upon hearing this, Sha immediately expressed his full support.

A beam of white light appeared at the resurrection point of the Blood Blade, and his gaze fell upon the corpse that had yet to refresh. After a moment, he raised his head and said, "You have won; you have already obtained what you wished to win." Yi Yun took out a handkerchief that she always carried under pressure from Sha to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, and after a moment, she raised her head and said, "You have won; you have already obtained what you wished to win." Yi Yun took out a handkerchief that she always carried under pressure from Sha to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, and said calmly, "It is time to go back; do not keep them waiting too long." The Blood Blade could not help but ask, "How did you notice the flaw in my internal energy so quickly?" Yi Yun pondered and replied, "In fact, I do not have complete confidence; it was just that the increase in your internal energy's power during its eruption was too much, which raised my suspicions. The explosive power of the Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies is also quite strong, but it should not be as absurdly increased by 50% as yours seems to be. Therefore, it can only indicate that your internal energy cannot erupt continuously. Once you have activated it, there will be a temporary issue with the insufficient continuation of true energy." The Blood Blade sighed, "Unfortunately, my speed attribute is too low; otherwise, even if you saw through this, I might not have lost." Yi Yun decisively acknowledged, "Indeed, your speed is too slow. I was already using seven-tenths of my speed when attacking, and you could only barely defend against it. Once a flaw appeared, my full-speed attack would be impossible for you to withstand." The two remained silent as they returned to the bank. After the Blood Blade stored his belongings, they walked back to the inn together. Yi Yun suddenly spoke, "I feel very comfortable. If today’s goal had been to kill you, I believe I would not be as happy and relaxed as I am at this moment." After the Blood Blade stored his belongings, they walked back to the inn together. Yi Yun suddenly spoke, "I feel very comfortable. If today’s goal had been to kill you, I believe I would not be as happy and relaxed as I am at this moment."

Yiyun and Sha once again stepped into the conference hall of the Alliance Headquarters. Over the past seven months, the frequency of meetings had become so high that neither of them could remember clearly, yet each time it was a noisy mess. Yiyun yawned out of boredom, while Sha appeared quite gloomy beside her. After they entered the conference hall and took their seats, Yiyun disregarded her posture and leaned back with her eyes closed, engaging in self-cultivation. Since four months ago, Yiyun had behaved this way whenever it was time for a meeting, and no one had said anything about it. Those who were busy arguing continued to argue, those who were silent remained silent, and those who were heartbroken and distressed had no time to soothe the emotions of the crowd, let alone pay attention to the fact that Yiyun was not taking the meeting seriously. Even Sha, who usually paid great attention to her image, was now leaning back against Yiyun out of boredom, drawing one shape after another on the table with one hand. This illustrates just how scattered the hearts of the people within the Alliance had become.

Having been away for nearly two months, after dealing with a pile of tasks, Blood Blade leaned back in his chair, unable to help but recall the various moments spent with Xiao Yun. At that moment, Xue Ming pushed the door open and gazed at Blood Blade for a while, then spoke with a hint of melancholy: "Who have you fallen in love with?" Blood Blade was startled by Xue Ming's question and sat up straight, saying, "What are you talking about?" The sorrow in Xue Ming's eyes deepened, and with a tone filled with sadness, she said: "You know how long I have liked you; how could I be mistaken? Your current gaze is even more infatuated than when you were enamored with Qing Yi. You have never been away for this long; this time, you were gone for two months. You returned looking even more restless." Blood Blade fell silent, wanting to speak several times but ultimately unable to utter a word. For Xue Ming, Blood Blade could never develop feelings beyond friendship, yet Xue Ming's enduring affection made him feel guilty. "Since you are unwilling to tell me, then forget it," Xue Ming said lightly as she slipped out of the room, drifting away. Blood Blade sat there in a daze, deep in thought, repeatedly contemplating Xue Ming's words.

The molten iron was successfully cast into a sword. One male and one female, named Gan Jiang and Mo Ye.

The sword within the brocade box gives an overall impression of being slender and exquisite. The hilt is inlaid with several gemstones, and at first glance, it dazzles with a silvery light. As Yi Yun slightly squints her eyes, she is taken aback when she opens them again, only to find that the box contains nothing but the hilt; the blade is conspicuously absent. Legends are ultimately just legends. In her heart, Yi Yun's favorite among the ancient famous swords is the Shadow of the Moon, yet she never believed that a sword could exist that is shadowy yet formless. Filled with confusion, she reaches out to take the sword, but no matter how she changes the angle, the hilt appears empty. "Do you see a blade on the sword in my hand?" Yi Yun cannot help but awaken the attention of the crowd, who are immersed in admiring the famous sword. They turn their heads in confusion, almost simultaneously squinting their eyes, and then they all exclaim in surprise, "Just a moment ago, we clearly saw a silver blade; how is it that after just a slight squint, what you hold is merely a hilt?" It is then that Yi Yun realizes something is indeed amiss; it is impossible for everyone to have the same illusion. The Little Dragon Girl speaks up, "Yi Yun, look at the shadow on the ground!" Upon hearing this, the crowd shifts their gaze to the shadow cast by the light beside Yi Yun, a slender figure holding a narrow sword. The crowd, filled with confusion and astonishment, approaches Yi Yun. The Heartbroken Sorrow takes out her accompanying sword and gently taps the hilt that Yi Yun is holding, producing a clear ringing sound. Qing Yi exclaims, "This is truly incredible; such a marvel exists in the world. The Shadow of the Moon is indeed as the legend describes, having a shadow yet being formless."

Due to Xiaolongnu's aversion to luxury, she typically does not take a carriage unless traveling far. By the time the two arrived, the place was already filled with people. Unlike previous occasions, there was an unfamiliar woman beside the aloof Shuang and the sturdy Jingang. This immediately led to speculation about the woman's identity; to be seated in that position was certainly not trivial. Clearly, everyone was waiting for the two, or more precisely, for Xiaolongnu. Once Xiaolongnu was seated, the heartbroken Duanchang spoke up: "Everyone must be curious about who this beautiful stranger is. Allow me to introduce her; she is the current leader of the Qian Gang, Ning Wang. On behalf of the Qian Gang, I announce that we are joining the alliance from today, and at the same time, a new vice-leader will be appointed, with Ning Wang taking on this role. Does anyone have any objections to this?" Instantly, the puzzled crowd began to understand; this was indeed a highly significant matter. The Qian Gang's inclusion meant that the financial crisis facing the alliance was no longer an issue. Who would dare to voice opposition? Moreover, given the powerful backing of the Qian Gang, many seasoned veterans were already aware of it, and those who were not would not be foolish enough to oppose, considering the resolution of the current crisis.

Ling Er opened the communication channel, "Ying, you saw the announcement, right?" Chi Ying replied softly, somewhat dejected, "I saw it. You must be leading the disciples to undertake the Blood Refinement task, right?" "I am already on my way." A moment of silence ensued, and Chi Ying spoke again, "Ling, it’s alright. Life and death in the martial world are quite common; I won’t be affected by it." Upon hearing this, Ling Er felt a warmth in her heart, but then sighed, "However, you are one of the top ten experts in the sect, and your reputation is at its peak. The disciples within the sect admire you immensely. When unavoidable conflicts arise, how will you cope?" Chi Ying fell silent. Just then, Ling Er received a transmission from Yue Er, "Ling Er, you must be feeling troubled right now. I have something to say to you: you and Chi Ying will ultimately have to meet on the battlefield. If merely fighting for necessity leads to affecting your feelings, then such love is better off not pursued." Ling Er immediately understood, her worries dissipating. "Chi Ying, even if we cannot avoid meeting on the battlefield, the battlefield is merciless. When it’s time to fight, don’t hold back; whoever dies will die by whose hand. After the battlefield, you will still be my Ying, and I will still be your Ling. Do you understand what I mean? There is no necessary death here; what do we have that is worth being so concerned about?" On the other end, Chi Ying suddenly realized, filled with extreme joy, "I understand now, Ling. A single phrase has awakened me from my dream!" Ling Er smiled as she closed the communication channel, contemplating how to minimize the sect's casualties while completing the Blood Refinement.

"According to the rhyme, I will accompany Senior Sister Hui and return later." As everyone exited the conference hall, Sha quietly instructed Yi Yun, then watched as Yi Yun, with a pained expression, boarded the carriage to the mountain villa, unable to help but shake his head and smile wryly. He linked arms with the Little Dragon Girl and walked away slowly.

The Hero Association and the Moon Elder Association immediately spoke up: "Indeed, both of our factions are struggling to protect ourselves; otherwise, we would not be standing by and watching." Heartbroken and heart-wrenching fell silent upon hearing this, knowing in his heart that although the Hero Association and the Moon Elder Association are among the top ten factions with a considerable number of members, their financial resources are indeed not very strong. Qingyi and Xiaolongnu also found it difficult to say: "In our sect, we have already personally reached out to other more affluent sisters for financial assistance for our junior disciples over the past two months. It is truly too difficult to raise funds within the sect at this moment." The leader of the Tianya Alliance, Tianya Haijiao, spoke up: "In this regard, I still have some surplus; I can probably spare 130 million. If it were any more, it would be quite difficult." Everyone turned to look at him in surprise; the Tianya Alliance, ranked sixth among the top ten factions, indeed possesses substantial strength, and in such circumstances, they still have the capacity to donate such a large sum of money. Heartbroken and heart-wrenching immediately showed a joyful expression and nodded, saying: "This is already very good; thank you very much, Tianya." Tianya cupped his fists in a humble manner and said: "Those in the alliance will naturally contribute according to their ability; this is our responsibility." Yiyun muttered in dissatisfaction under her breath, knowing she had to speak up, yet she was unwilling to donate the hard-earned money from her own manor for the sake of some hollow reputation. However, if she insisted that her manor was in difficulty, no one would believe her. Everyone knew that although the manor had lost nearly 100,000 members in the past few months due to not completely halting operations, they had yet to touch their principal. As Yiyun quickly brainstormed how to decline while providing a sufficiently reasonable excuse, Heartbroken and heart-wrenching had already spoken up: "Then what about Manor Master Yi?" Everyone knew that although the manor had lost nearly 100,000 members in the past few months due to not completely halting operations, they had yet to touch their principal. As Yiyun quickly brainstormed how to decline while providing a sufficiently reasonable excuse, Heartbroken and heart-wrenching had already spoken up: "Then what about Manor Master Yi?"

This is no longer a battle, but a competition to see which side possesses greater resilience in life and stronger perseverance

With her eyes slightly squinted, Yi Yun gradually adapted to the dim light within the passage. Before her lay a deep passage that extended further into the depths of the earth. The passage was approximately 3 meters high and over 3 meters wide, with walls made of hard granite weighing thousands of pounds. At intervals of three people, there were slightly elevated small circular platforms, which, as explained by the heartbroken and despairing one, originally had guards stationed on them. After walking for about fifteen minutes, the group arrived at a door tightly sealed by a massive stone, with no other paths in sight. The heartbroken and despairing one took out a precious pearl and placed it against the stone wall. After a few moments, the stone wall on one side slowly opened with a mechanical sound, revealing another passage. Facing this unknown path, the group all gripped their swords, their expressions wary as they cautiously stepped inside. The journey was uneventful until they passed through a narrower passage and entered a circular hall, which was exceptionally bright. Upon closer inspection, the group gasped in shock, for the entire hall was embedded with thirty-six luminous pearls, and surrounding them were hundreds of guards. This was the first time Yi Yun had seen the appearance of the tomb guards; each one was expressionless, their faces blank, as if they possessed no normal human awareness whatsoever. Suddenly, with a loud crash, a massive stone descended from the passage they had entered, sealing it completely. The heartbroken and despairing one shouted, "These guards are still somewhat sluggish after waking up; take this opportunity to relieve the pressure!" The group ceased their chatter, understanding each other, and raised their swords to charge forward, creating a stunning display of energy from the eight individuals within the room.

The Sword of the First Sacred Path, the Xuanyuan Xia Yu Sword, features one side of the blade engraved with the sun, moon, and stars, while the other side is inscribed with mountains, rivers, and vegetation. One side of the hilt contains the techniques of agriculture and animal husbandry, and the other side outlines the strategy for unifying the four seas.

Special announcement: The sect's unique martial arts are now open, the skill master level is now available, the literary master level is now accessible, the limit on gang residence systems has been increased, the area of residence has been expanded, the level of Jianghu tasks has been raised along with increased rewards, new categories of weapons and equipment have been added, the central equipment enhancement system is now open, and the Mingjiao has been opened along with related tasks.

Three leaders, if this continues, even our Hai Tian Gang will not be able to sustain it! The brothers in the gang have been delayed in practicing their skills and earning money for so long, and their emotions are extremely dissatisfied. If this goes on, they are likely to collectively defect to the Shen Zhou Gang.

The Blood Blade was engrossed in watching when he suddenly turned around to look. Not far away, the renowned expert Xingguang from the Shenzhou Gang, accompanied by about thirty disciples from the same sect, was rushing towards this direction, causing a sudden shock in his heart. He quickly opened a private communication channel, only to find that the other party had actually closed it. Upon discovering the gathering of people, Xingguang waved his hand casually, and his disciples charged aggressively towards the group, shouting, "People from Lingjiu Palace! All the women retreat back to the city first. Ah Wu, you take a few people to protect them, the rest follow me!" The Blood Blade listened with quiet admiration. Xingguang noticed the gathering of people and waved his hand casually, and his disciples charged aggressively towards the group, shouting, "People from Lingjiu Palace! All the women retreat back to the city first. Ah Wu, you take a few people to protect them, the rest follow me!" The Blood Blade listened with quiet admiration; these people were indeed impressive. In the face of such a crisis, their division of labor was very reasonable. If they all ran around chaotically, it was likely that none would survive. Seeing this, the Blood Blade's initial thought of jumping down to intervene was immediately dispelled. It was merely a reluctance to see that woman die unjustly; as for her companions, the Blood Blade could not care less.

Returning to the inn, the mood of Blood Blade remained unsettled, as the image of Xiao Yun crying could not be shaken from his mind. He was even more worried about Xiao Yun; what would happen if they encountered the people from Lingjiu Palace again? After pondering this for an entire night, he ultimately decided that since he had nothing to do lately, he might as well disguise himself to practice his collection skills while also protecting her.

During the gathering, Xiaoyun kept curiously examining Yiyun's sword, and finally said cautiously, "Zhuangzhu, your sword is so beautiful, may I take a look?" Yiyun smiled and handed it over. Xiaoyun excitedly took it in her hands, drew it out, and the Blood Blade sitting to the side hurriedly said, "Be careful, the sword's blade emits auras; keep your hands away from the blade, or you might get hurt." The tone and demeanor were extremely gentle. Seeing this, others also gathered around to examine Chixiao. One person asked, "Zhuangzhu, is this the ancient divine weapon Chixiao among the ten great divine weapons?" "Yes," Yiyun replied with a smile. The crowd stirred for a while, and then the sword was returned to Yiyun's hands.

Section 3, The Countenance of Divine Weapons

"I am already on the way and will arrive by this afternoon." "Hehehe... At the hour of the rat, let us begin!"

Thereafter, despite the Shenzhou Gang's repeated denials of any connection with Letian, it had no effect whatsoever. The hatred towards the Shenzhou Gang in the martial world reached an unprecedented level, with many previously neutral small factions and martial artists turning to the Alliance, vowing to eradicate the existence of the Shenzhou Gang, which was deemed cruel, shameless, and inhumane. The momentum of the Alliance was even more formidable than before, with Xianling Valley, Huashan Alliance, Jingang Alliance, and Guyue Villa, which were already among the top ten gangs, becoming the primary choices for those in the martial world seeking refuge, leading to a rapid increase in their numbers. The second largest gang in the martial world, Xianling Valley, was now nearly equal in numbers to the Shenzhou Gang.

The four of them ran at full speed for about half a quarter of an hour, and faintly saw the figures of a man and a woman standing steadily ahead. The three of them threw the brocade box to Leng Aoshang, while only Yi Yun still carried the original brocade box that contained Cheng Ying on her back. "Perhaps I can use it. Lord Leng, you may set off; we three will definitely hold them back." Yi Yun explained the confusion of the three in a calm manner. Leng did not say much, merely nodding slightly to indicate his understanding. At the same time, he turned in a different direction and rushed off to the side, while Yi Yun and the other three drew their swords, charging forward with an indomitable spirit towards the two figures on the road and in the books.

Shadon was momentarily speechless. From this perspective, the Qian Gang is indeed quite formidable, and it is likely that no force in the martial world would dare to provoke them. The Little Dragon Girl continued, "Especially since the Qian Gang has never had greater ambitions, this makes it even more pleasing to the various factions. Once they express their willingness to help, it is almost impossible to be refused. Moreover, their generosity is remarkable; when other factions are in trouble, they certainly provide substantial financial assistance. Just looking at the scale of their contributions to the alliance this time is astonishing." The Little Dragon Girl paused and said, "However, I find it quite strange. The Qian Gang should not be so generous; this amount of money is certainly not insignificant for them and should carry other intentions." Shadon could not comment further on this and remained silent. As the two were conversing, they suddenly received a system announcement:

Upon hearing this, Ling'er was about to respond formally as usual, when Yue'er smiled and said, "Alright, at first it may feel a bit unfamiliar, but you must adapt quickly. From now on, there is no need to be polite or formal with us at any time. Just treat me as your sister in everyday interactions. The bond between the Five Demonesses is like that of sisters, even closer than life and death. Do you understand?" Ling'er covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, "Yue'er, Yue'er, Yue'er, hehe, actually, what I dislike the most is having to add 'Senior Sister' in front of others, but not adding it would be against the rules, so this is truly wonderful. Yue'er..." Ling'er murmured as she took her leave, and Yue'er couldn't help but smile.

A group of people rested in the hall for nearly a day, and only then did they operate on the stone platform according to the method of closing the mechanism. Suddenly, with the sound of mechanisms operating, the stone door of the originally sealed hall slowly rose. The group cautiously retreated along the original path, and there were no signs of any anomalies until they reached the entrance of the passage. The person named Heartbroken opened the communication channel, and immediately the giant stone at the entrance of the passage was moved aside, "Everything is as usual." Only then did everyone crawl out of the passage one by one. Heartbroken returned the giant stone to its original position and then communicated with the experts of the alliance, subsequently leading everyone to wait at a nearby intersection.

No way! This monster seems to be of an unknown constitution; over 100 jade bee needles and more than 70 ice spirit silver needles have been completely expended, yet it shows no reaction at all. Xiaolongnu appeared somewhat anxious, and beside her, Leng Aoshang, who was cultivating, spoke up: "My life-and-death talisman has also failed to achieve the desired effect!" Qingyi then exerted all her strength to release sword energy while gasping, saying: "Aside from knocking off large patches of its black fur, it seems like we are merely scratching its itch!" The heartbroken and sorrowful group, still unleashing their sword energy, lamented: "Damn it, our internal energy feels like it has sunk into the ocean!" A sense of despair arose among everyone almost simultaneously; this monster is too enormous. Perhaps it has meridians, perhaps it fears poison, but its meridians are certainly not comparable to those of a normal person. The impact it can withstand and the toxins its body can bear are undoubtedly far beyond what everyone has estimated. This monster is too gigantic; perhaps it has meridians, perhaps it fears poison, but its meridians are certainly not comparable to those of a normal person. The impact it can withstand and the toxins its body can bear are undoubtedly far beyond what everyone has estimated. Perhaps those poisons are entirely within the range that its body can instinctively endure, and the effect of the life-and-death talisman is likely to be minimal. Moreover, the place they find themselves in offers no escape; perhaps there is a mechanism to deactivate it on the stone platform, but no one dares to approach the stone platform. This monster is clearly guarding the divine weapon, and if it becomes enraged, who knows what other terrifying things might happen?

This monster is clearly guarding the divine weapon, and if it becomes enraged, who knows what other terrifying things might happen? Yiyun's self-assured lightness of foot is barely enough to keep her alive in front of the monster. The monster's enormous strides quickly closed the distance between them, and with a swing of its giant hand, Yiyun had to awkwardly roll or dodge to evade the attack. In such a short time, over ten large pits had already appeared on the ground, demonstrating the speed and frequency of the monster's attacks.

Xueming handed the letter in his hand to Zixinren, who opened it and read through it before passing it on to Bucun and others. "Did he mention anything else?" Xueming asked softly. "He said that if everyone trusts him, he suggests training Can to become the top expert of the Blood Knife Sect in the Shenzhou Gang." Zixinren then instructed the attendant, "Go call Can over." A melancholic atmosphere filled the room, as a brother who had fought alongside everyone countless times was about to retreat from the martial world.

Section 1, it is said

In a state of confusion, she exclaimed, "I will stop them!" Her tone was filled with determination. Xiao Jian nodded lightly and began to move towards Leng Ao Shuang. In a moment of urgency, she shouted and lunged at the three, simultaneously raising her hands to unleash a flurry of hidden weapons towards them. The Little Dragon Maiden, leading the charge, waved her hands rapidly, causing the myriad of hidden weapons to fall to the ground. At this point, Xiao Jian had already covered a distance of four zhang. The Little Dragon Maiden shouted, "I will block her!" Yi Yun and Qing Yi were naturally full of confidence in the Little Dragon Maiden, the foremost expert of the Ancient Tomb Sect, believing that no matter what, Mawang would be helpless against her.

Yi Yun and Qing Yi were naturally full of confidence in the Little Dragon Maiden, the foremost expert of the Ancient Tomb Sect, believing that no matter what, Mawang would be helpless against her. Mawang, seemingly reckless, hurled another barrage of hidden weapons, charging towards the three like the wind, unleashing all her strength against them. Yi Yun swiftly retrieved a brocade box from her back and shouted towards Xiao Jian's figure, launching it. Without pause, her right hand channeled all her energy towards Mawang. While the Little Dragon Maiden blocked all of Mawang's hidden weapons, Yi Yun's and Mawang's energies clashed simultaneously. Yi Yun remained steady, but Mawang was forced back a step. Stopping momentarily, Mawang, as if disregarding her life, hurled another barrage of hidden weapons, charging towards the three like the wind, unleashing all her strength against them.

Stopping momentarily, the Little Dragon Maiden was not willing to give Mawang another chance to go wild. She immediately closed in, executing close combat techniques, leaving Mawang no opportunity to escape, no matter how anxious she was.

The Sword of Benevolence, Zhanhu and Zhanlu: It is profoundly black. This long sword, entirely black and devoid of any markings, evokes not a sense of sharpness, but rather a feeling of breadth and kindness. The essence of five metals, the quintessence of the sun, emerges with spirit and commands respect. When Ouyezi forged this sword, he could not help but shed tears as he finally fulfilled his lifelong dream: to create a weapon that is indestructible yet devoid of any murderous intent. The so-called benevolent person is invincible.

The Sword of Chixiao from the Third Empire is a precious sword adorned with colorful beads and nine varieties of jade, exuding a chilling light, with a blade as frosty as snow. The sword body is clearly engraved with two seal characters: Chixiao

After the cold and aloof frost departed, the moon spoke up: "It is quite a challenge for her." Rong'er said with resentment: "I truly wish I could rush to the capital and wipe out the entire headquarters of the alliance!" Ling'er still had not fully adapted; in the presence of Xi'er and Rong'er, she appeared somewhat restrained, maintaining silence in such situations and not daring to speak casually. "I do not need such things; you four can divide them among yourselves. Ling'er, with her lack of experience, should take a bit more. Have they returned with any deficiencies or not?"

Generally speaking, advanced weapons and equipment are subject to regulations. Within one day of acquisition, even if they are carried on one's person, they are not considered the property of the individual. Upon death, even if one possesses a substitute doll, it will still drop. Only by securing them in a bank or gang warehouse can they be preserved. Otherwise, the eight individuals would not have lingered at the alliance headquarters for an entire day and night, reluctant to leave. At this moment, Yi Yun, holding the divine weapon in her hand, could not help but feel a wave of anxiety. Currently, she did not have a substitute doll on her. In fact, the Shenzhou Gang had only recently defeated the alliance's dead soldiers, and even if they rushed with all their might, it would be impossible for them to arrive so quickly. It was merely a feeling of anxiety stemming from having obtained a precious treasure. Not to mention Yi Yun, even the likes of Shanshen Duan and others could hardly maintain a calm demeanor at this moment.

Chapter 10, The First of Revenge

At that moment, a sudden cacophony of killing sounds erupted around them. From both sides of the mountain path, as well as from the front and behind, about ten masters from the Shenzhou and Tushubang charged out. "Be extremely careful!" Yi Yun said as she gently pushed away the beauty in her arms, her gaze sparkling as she assessed the enemies that had emerged. The masters of the alliance formed into four groups, each heading towards a batch of enemies. Heartbroken and heart-wrenching took down the brocade box from his back, binding it together with the Demon Slayer, the Diamond, and the Dragon Sword, and shouted, "Let’s break through together!" The seven nodded in understanding and responded. Heartbroken and heart-wrenching threw the six packed brocade boxes to Yi Yun, who reached out to catch them. The lightness of the four was considerably inferior, and since Yi Yun was a man, he naturally took on the responsibility of transport; how could he let the three beauties carry such a burden unless absolutely necessary? The eight of them used their lightness skills to break through the chaotic battle circle, rushing towards the road back to the capital.

Section 2, Tombs.

"Yue'er, Ling'er, send the disciples to search for Xi'er separately!" After saying this, they hurriedly left, and Yue'er and Ling'er also returned to their respective Witch Halls with faces full of anger to convey the orders. Three hours later, dressed in a bright red gauze skirt, Xi'er, looking dazed, stepped onto the steps of Lingjiu Palace, accompanied by Rong'er, Yue'er, and Ling'er. Her eyes appeared vacant, and after a long silence, she suddenly looked around and said: "Le'er is dead, we are all sad, but those people from the anti-alliance are laughing, laughing heartily, they are actually laughing...

Hehehehe... Le'er was killed, yet someone is laughing, hehehehe..." Her tone suddenly paused: "In my capacity as the acting sect master, I officially announce that from this moment on, anyone who sees members of the anti-alliance will be killed without mercy! All disciples of Lingjiu Palace, regardless of where they are at this moment, must return to the sect to report!" Her tone suddenly paused: "In my capacity as the acting sect master, I officially announce that from this moment on, anyone who sees members of the anti-alliance will be killed without mercy!
