Chapter 004

"But what does it count for to dominate at the same level?" Wei Wushang said coldly, "If the people of the world were to know, they would probably laugh their heads off."

"You, you, you..." In Wei Wushang's genuine regret, Feng An was truly on the verge of tears, trembling all over as she asked, "What on earth did you do in the past?!" Why does it feel like there's a sense of a bandit about you?

Xiu Tong knocked Zhu Bi unconscious, and then pointed to the unconscious Zhu Bi at the feet of the young man who had just escaped injury. The latter obediently picked up Zhu Bi by the waist and stood properly behind him. Seeing that the situation had calmed down, Xiu Tong showed some satisfaction and nodded to Wei Wushang, saying, "What you told her, as long as she can comprehend half of it, she will benefit immensely." After a pause, a hint of curiosity appeared on his proud face as he asked, "Just now, I thought you would kill her."

Wei Wushang has always been a good friend. Not only did he generously share the spiritual herb during that time, but he also subdued the spirit beast at the cost of sustaining serious injuries. If it weren't for Wei Wushang's efforts to knock the beast unconscious for a moment, they would not have been able to escape. Therefore, Feng An feels a certain closeness to this sometimes difficult individual. At this moment, he resignedly began to explain the essence of Xinzhi Mountain to her. As they conversed, they had already reached the mountain's peak, where they saw a blazing sun rising in the distance, and amidst the sea of clouds, a small temple appeared.

Wei Wushang silently nodded, accepting Cheng Yan's kindness. Seeing that Feng An did not seem in a hurry to leave, Cheng Yan and Xiu Tong nodded towards Wei Wushang, and the two dejected young men disappeared once again. After watching them leave, Wei Wushang turned his head and regretfully said to Feng An, who was gazing longingly into the distance, "I actually forgot an important matter"

Wei Wushang, however, paid no attention to the palace, instead focusing on the method of the Ten Thousand Mile Courtyard applied before him. He squinted his eyes to carefully sense the vast and boundless square, and finally, his gaze fell upon one side of the square, where a misty medicinal field lay. The medicinal field was lush with spiritual herbs, exuding a refreshing aura of wood spirit. Above it floated small spiritual rain clouds, gently showering spiritual water onto the herbs, further invigorating their vitality.

Even Wei Wushang displayed an expression of helplessness, staring straight ahead

Although he admires Cheng Yan, he is very self-aware and has never dared to approach the formidable figures in the Law Enforcement Hall

The junior sister is overthinking. Cheng Yan truly finds it both amusing and exasperating. Although she feels that the junior sister is quite ill, her gentle nature prevents her from speaking harshly. She can only shake her head and say, "I am not jealous of the junior sister." What she seeks is the great Dao, not the affection of a few senior brothers.

The young man was also observing Wei Wushang, and after a long while, he unexpectedly nodded slightly to her and said somewhat coldly, "You are very strong"

You are jealous that I am better looking than you, that I am more favored by the senior brothers, isn't that so? Zhu Bi said to Cheng Yan with an expression of "I have seen through you!"

In front of the two individuals, an elderly cultivator with an ethereal demeanor was currently engaged in a desperate battle with his opponent

"If there is time, we shall have a match." The young man seemed to agree quite readily, then pointed to himself and said indifferently, "Bian Yangzong, Xiu Tong."

Although this woman just struck me, she avoided my vital points. Wei Wushang said淡淡地, "Returning the favor in kind, since she does not wish to kill me, I naturally will not kill her either"

However, when the sword light approached closely and revealed the identity of the cultivator above, Feng An displayed a relaxed expression. The earlier tension dissipated, and he quickly turned around. Under Wei Wushang's scrutinizing gaze, he swiftly tidied his hair and adjusted his clothing. Then, he turned back and struck an elegant pose, greeting the female cultivator among the two who had fallen to the ground, saying, "Senior Sister Cheng, long time no see"

Three fat sheep were unexpectedly taken away by two fellows. Wei Wushang stroked his chin and sighed under Feng An's gaze, saying, It seems that after lying idle for a few months, I have become unskilled in my business; I was so preoccupied with talking that I actually forgot about the spoils! This is truly a form of irony directed at me! At the same time, she felt that Zhu Bi was quite lucky, as he at least had not been stripped bare by her.

Speaking of which, the last time to accompany Wei Wushang in search of a rare spiritual herb, Feng An had already risked her life to venture deep into Xinzhi Mountain with her. Although they ultimately fled back, pursued by a peak Foundation Establishment stage demon beast, the gains were not insignificant.

Wei Wushang bore a faint scent of blood, and his gaze was chillingly cold, clearly indicating that he was not a benevolent master. Xiutong himself was of a similar disposition; he thought that if anyone dared to offend him, they would undoubtedly be struck down by a single sword. Thus, he could not comprehend why Wei Wushang would show mercy and spare Zhu Bi's life.

Feng An decisively shook his head, indicating that he did not have the audacity for such theft

This is nothing, impulsiveness is the devil. Feng An felt that, for the sake of his own life, he should still appease this very menacing individual beside him

"Not at all." Xiu Tong seemed completely uninterested in this. Cheng Yan helplessly glanced at him and then gently said to Wei Wushang, "My senior brother and I came here simply because we heard that there were people fighting, so we wanted to see the situation. After all, we are both law enforcement cultivators of the Law Enforcement Hall." Seeing Wei Wushang slowly nodding, she then turned to Zhu Bi and said coldly, "Junior Sister Zhu, the five sects of Xin Zhi Mountain have always maintained good relations. You dare to attack Junior Sister Wei; this is a grave offense! Thirty strikes of the Divine Whip, please come with my senior brother and me to the Law Enforcement Hall to receive punishment. As for you two..." She glanced at the two somewhat fearful young men and pondered, "Just..."

"In that case, where should I meet with my fellow cultivator?" Wei Wushang then asked.

Cheng Yan! Zhu Bi is truly going mad, she does not understand why her fellow disciples have come, yet instead of punishing Wei Wushang, they choose to punish her, who is already injured. She exclaimed sharply, "You were jealous of me in the past, and now, instead of avenging me, you are seeking personal revenge?!"

"Three days later at the hour of Zi, on the peak of An Tian. " Cheng Yan smiled and said, "Junior sister need not be so formal, just call us senior brothers and sisters."

"I forgot." Wei Wushang shrugged nonchalantly, then jumped up to wrap his arm around Feng An's neck, curiously asking as the young man suddenly bent at the waist, "The Refining Heart Illusion, it sounds a bit different, why don't you tell me about it?" She squinted her eyes and asked, "The depths of Xinzhi Mountain? Could it be that the last time we entered, it wasn't the deepest part?"

Afterwards, it disappeared so suddenly. Upon seeing Wei Wushang heading straight towards the medicinal field, he hurriedly followed. However, he noticed that the water vapor dispersed to both sides after the two had entered the medicinal field. The scene that came into view made Feng An's face twitch heavily, and he actually wanted to turn around and flee.

The female cultivator was dressed in a water-blue robe, exuding vibrant spiritual energy. She looked at Feng An with a face full of astonishment, then politely returned the greeting, saying, "I have met Senior Brother Feng." After that, her gaze fell upon Wei Wushang, and she paused slightly, revealing a hint of a smile, and said amiably, "You must be Junior Sister Wei from the Wangu Sect, right? I am Cheng Yan."

I am truly surprised by Cheng Yan's statement of "I envy you?" and couldn't help but respond with some confusion, "What do I envy my junior sister for?" How could she not even know herself?

"Wangu Sect, Wei Wushang." After formally introducing himself to these two cultivators, Wei Wushang raised his chin slightly towards Zhu Bi, who was looking at him and the others with jealousy, and asked, "Need assistance?"

Upon seeing these spiritual herbs, Feng An felt that something was not quite right

"Moreover, what is there to be jealous of a waste?" Wei Wushang's face revealed a faint mockery as he looked at Zhu Bi and suddenly raised an eyebrow with a smile, "Do you know why Feng An is closer to me?" As Feng An wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, she said flatly, "Because I can bring him benefits, because I am a comrade who can fight alongside him, you fool!" She sneered, "Let me tell you, female cultivator, the most useless thing is that face! Those who are good-looking but have cultivation like yours, a waste, can only serve as a furnace for others!" "Because I can bring him benefits, because I am a comrade who can fight alongside him, you fool!" She sneered again, "Let me tell you, female cultivator, the most useless thing is that face! Those who are good-looking but have cultivation like yours, a waste, can only serve as a furnace for others! Instead of looking for trouble with me here, you might as well go back and cultivate properly! Otherwise, in three hundred years, you will just be a pile of dry bones!"

"Do you not want to go?" Wei Wushang asked Feng An, who had a complex expression on his face.

You! Zhu Bi screamed, just about to speak, when suddenly she saw a shadow flash by her side, followed by a sharp pain in her head, and she fainted.

I forgot to mention, that opponent is indeed a spirited ... ... rabbit ... ...

"Three days later, my junior sister and I will venture into a certain illusion deep within Xinzhi Mountain. Would you care to join us?" A glimmer of appreciation flashed in Xiutong's eyes as he invited, "Although it is merely a Heart Refining Illusion, it can solidify the foundation of our Dao and is quite beneficial for our advancement. However, it is difficult to traverse the depths of Xinzhi Mountain. This time, I will be accompanied by several elite disciples from the Bianyang Sect. If you are willing, how about joining us?"

"There is indeed such a place," Feng An said regretfully, "but it is the forbidden territory of the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall. Other disciples of the sect who wish to enter will be dealt with harshly." Most of the people in the Law Enforcement Hall are a bunch of lunatics, Feng An thought, ... to be appreciated by the heroic Xiutong, this Wei Wushang's true nature, haha ...

Indeed, everything is implied without words

The female cultivator appeared calm and carried a sense of kindness, and she was surprisingly a practitioner at the eighth level of Qi Refinement. Wei Wushang's gaze softened slightly as he returned her polite greeting. However, his attention soon shifted to a young man standing behind Cheng Yan, whose demeanor was cold and aloof. Noticing that he shared the same cultivation level as Cheng Yan and wielded a black longsword that exuded a hint of murderous intent, it was evident that he had experienced considerable bloodshed as a cultivator, prompting Wei Wushang to narrow his eyes.

The Refining Heart Illusion Array? Wei Wushang is a newcomer in this place, completely unaware of it, and thus he looked towards Feng An.

What is the matter?" Feng An hurriedly asked, "Is there any obstruction?
