Despite Lin Hanqing being at a disadvantage, Wu Mucha was unable to defeat him in the short term.

Yun Wanli, who was watching the battle, frowned. This was not because he was dissatisfied with Wumucha's performance, but because he felt that the woman was indeed a bit troublesome!

The warriors of the Great Zhou Dynasty don't seem as weak as I imagined.

Lu Xiaoyi is one thing, he's a martial artist who's been famous for many years.

This woman looked to be around thirty years old, and her cultivation level was only at the mid-stage of the tenth-grade Dharma Manifestation realm.

But she managed to hold Wumucha back, even though she had brought a burden with her.

"Wanli, go and take care of her!"

Yun Shangtian looked down with a cold expression.

This is the reason why he didn't explain the cause and effect clearly before.

For the sake of the Azure Eagle Clan's future, even Yun Wanli is just a pawn.

In critical moments, sacrifice is sacrifice.

Upon hearing this, Yun Wanli disregarded it and leaped off the eagle's back.

The sound of something cutting through the air echoed over the town.

Intense wind pressure generated strong winds.

The wind carried with it a true energy as cold as frost.

As if winter had arrived, Yang Xiaoqian's thoughts froze instantly.

Her body stopped trembling.

She watched the demon descend like a stranger.

demon...

A corner of memory has been completely exposed.

A series of distorted faces flashed through her mind.

The sky seemed to be stained red with blood.

The earth was littered with severed limbs and broken bones.

Amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood, a hand reached out towards her.

Those hands look like Grandpa's!

Clang!

The whistling sound of swords in her ears pulled Yang Xiaoqian back to reality.

As Yun Wanli drew near, Lin Hanqing once again drew his sword.

But this sword seems illusory and unreal.

It doesn't exist, but it actually appears.

As the orange sunset cast its golden rays, blood rained down from the sky.

That was Ebony Cha, shattered by the sword energy.

Yun Wanli's chest was shattered by the sword energy, and he flew towards the eagle's body in a panic.

"Ancestor!"

"You've done a great job. Leave the rest to me!"

The sound of clouds drifted from afar.

The person standing on the eagle began to twist.

A blood-red robe fluttered in the wind.

The round body of Yun Shangtian changed shape like clay.

Her figure gradually became thinner.

But strangely, the excess flesh was all melted and cast into deformed arms.

This is the corpse nurtured by the heavens above the clouds.

It has one head, six arms, and its body is covered with magical implements.

When it comes to having no equal among humans, things are never simple.

From the moment he left the Tower of Ascension, Yun Shangtian's true form was concealed.

Even now that he's certain the person isn't there, he hasn't let his guard down.

The corpse vanished from the spot.

Then, he appeared in front of Yang Xiaoqian.

Lin Hanqing leaned on his sword, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes.

She couldn't understand which faction these mysterious experts belonged to.

She couldn't understand why they would go to such great lengths to kill her.

Linlang Palace rarely gets involved in the conflicts of the martial arts world.

"Xiaoqian, run!"

Lin Hanqin propped herself up and drew her sword, trying to tear a path to survival.

But at that moment, Yang Xiaoqian reached out and placed her hand on her shoulder.

Lin Hanqing turned around in confusion and saw a face covered in tears but with unwavering determination.

An indescribable power erupted from Yang Xiaoqian's body.

That power was none other than the life-saving divine ability that Yang Dong had left her.

Even though she was just an unknown martial artist before, with the blessing of her unparalleled supernatural powers, she now has the ability to look down on all martial artists in the world.

Yang Xiaoqian had only two choices.

They could escape using supernatural powers or use supernatural powers to destroy invading enemies.

Choosing the former option allows her to escape, but Lin Hanqing will surely die.

Choosing the latter would mean her death, but Lin Hanqing would survive.

Going to one's death is so difficult!

Yang Xiaoqian looked back in the direction she had come from, and felt a little regretful.

It's a pity I didn't get to see you more!

"No!"

Lin Hanqin realized what Yang Xiaoqian was about to do.

An irresistible force, like a gentle breeze, pushed her away into the distance.

In the wind, Yang Xiaoqian's voice came, "Master, live well!"

If you can, please remember to tell him for me that I really like him.

Love arises without warning, and deepens with time.

Yang Xiaoqian didn't know why she liked him so much.

The next moment, her gaze hardened.

When she reaches out and grasps, everything in the world becomes a sword in her hand.

Sword energy permeated the sky, the earth, the mountains, and the rivers.

The corpse that fell from the sky was instantly shredded by the sword energy, becoming a dead body.

In the sky, a giant eagle cried mournfully.

It exerted all its strength to flap its wings and soar into the sky.

But its struggles were futile in the face of that terrifying sword energy.

Blood mixed with gray feathers fell toward the earth, and Yun Wanli's riddled body fell to the ground like a withered leaf.

But Yang Xiaoqian's target was not him.

Her snow-white pupils reflected a mountain stream dozens of miles away.

Below the mountain stream, a slightly plump figure transformed into a swimming fish.

Why is this happening?!

Why was such an unparalleled supernatural power left behind so easily?

Yun Shangtian was dumbfounded!

If given another chance, he would either run further away or be more cautious.

But clearly, he had no chance.

The setting sun cast its rays over the stream like a sacred flame purifying the world.

The sword energy swept past.

Somewhere in the stream, a patch of bright red.

The bright red color was quickly assimilated by the stream until no trace of it remained.

In the sky, the figure riding the sword also completely disappeared, as if she had never existed.

......

Bang!

Yun Wanli's broken body crashed heavily to the ground, the excruciating pain tearing at his wounds, but he dared not utter a sound.

He did his best to burrow into the soil and cover himself with fallen leaves.

He didn't know what had happened, but at that moment he didn't want to know.

All he wanted was to live!

From the distant mountains and forests came the desperate cries of a woman.

Yun Wanli held his breath, not daring to make the slightest sound.

After an unknown amount of time, the crying gradually subsided.

The sun set completely, and darkness engulfed the earth.

Under the moonlight, clouds stretched for thousands of miles, crawling out of the soil.

He was panting heavily, glancing back with lingering fear.

After confirming that no one was around, he staggered to his feet and headed north.

He swore he would never return to that godforsaken place again, for all eternity!

......
