With just a few words, the young man at the tenth level of Qi Condensation turned right into wrong and slandered Xue Kong and the other three for ambushing them.

He became the victim.

In response to this, none of Xue Kong and the other three offered any explanation.

They consider themselves to be demonic cultivators, so why should they explain anything to the righteous cultivators? Moreover, in their eyes, the so-called righteous cultivators are nothing but a group of guys who are disguised as righteous and hypocritical people.

No different from them.

The four of them looked at the two figures that appeared here.

The two figures, one male and one female, both appeared to be middle-aged. They were both wearing golden palace dresses. They had calm postures and peaceful smiles on their faces.

After appearing, he cast a surprised look at Xue Kong and the others.

The middle-aged man had a handsome face and smiled slightly: "I didn't expect to see such a good show right after entering this Earth Demon Valley. Demon cultivators... The broken corpses on the ground are really the style of demon cultivators."

"Husband, look at that female cultivator's hands."

The beautiful woman was dressed boldly and her clothes were thin, so her body could be seen faintly and her chest was exposed. However, she did not feel shy at all, but instead boldly showed off her graceful figure.

She called out to her husband beside her, as if she had discovered something.

The middle-aged man looked in the direction of the beautiful woman's finger.

It landed on Jiuxing Lian'er, and after a pause, a look of surprise appeared in its eyes: "Black-striped scorpion in the left hand, Jade Queen Mother Snake in the right arm, daughter of Lord Du of the Sky Poison Sect—Jiuxing Lian'er."

"What! She is Jiuxing Lian'er!?"

The young man who had reached the tenth level of Qi Condensation couldn't help but change his expression when he heard the middle-aged man's words. He looked at Jiuxing Lian'er again with a look of deep fear in his eyes.

The one that was feared was not Jiuxing Lian'er herself, but her father, Du Gong of the Tiandu Sect.

If he had known Jiuxing Lian'er's identity in advance, he would never have dared to attack her.

Jiuxing Lian'er's expression had remained unchanged from beginning to end, but after seeing the two cultivators, a man and a woman, it finally changed.

He took a step forward and said calmly, "Two seniors, please don't interfere."

Xue Kong was stunned when he heard this.

This was the first time he heard respect in Jiuxing Lian'er's words.

Whether it was out of heartfelt respect or awe of the other party's strength, this was the first time.

"These two are famous independent cultivators in the world of cultivation. The man is known as the Upside-Down Dragon, and the woman is known as the Inverted Phoenix. They are a couple who practice the dual cultivation method of Hehuan."

Jiuxing Lian'er opened her red lips slightly, her eyes solemn, and conveyed the identities of the two people to Chi Yao and the other two.

"Although their cultivation base is both at the tenth level of Qi Condensation, through the dual cultivation method, they can temporarily raise their cultivation base to the eleventh level at the same time. They can even cooperate with each other and unleash the power of Qi Condensation Great Perfection."

"You can't fight them by force. If you can't talk, you should think of a way to escape as soon as possible."

Xue Kong didn't know the identity of this Dianlongdaofeng

These Dianlongdaofeng may be well-known among the low-level cultivators, but they are just like Du Gong, small figures that can be killed by the fairy lady with a single blow.

"My two fellow Daoists, please eliminate the evil for the righteous path and save my life!"

The young man who had reached the tenth level of Qi Condensation knew that only this Dianlongdaofeng could save him at this moment, so he begged humbly.

Dianlong glanced around but did not see Du Gong.

He glanced at the corpses on the ground and felt a slight movement in his heart.

"Husband, do you still remember that when we were both at the eighth level of Qi Condensation, we were hunted by the Poison Lord. That escape was truly difficult and dangerous."

Dao Feng's expression remained normal, but there was a hint of coldness in his words.

Dianlong naturally knew what she meant and laughed heartily, "How could I forget? That was the closest my husband and I ever came to death. I must pay this debt back."

"Today, I happened to encounter the evil cultivators of the Sky Poison Sect. How dare you poison the righteous cultivators?"

Dianlong turned his gaze to the young man who was at the tenth level of Qi Condensation, and the latter's face immediately showed ecstasy.

Then he heard Dianlong comfortingly say: "Don't worry, fellow Daoist, my husband and I are sworn enemies with the demonic cultivators and will definitely eliminate this evil for the righteous path."

"Thank you, fellow Daoist!"

The young man at the tenth level of Qi Condensation was overjoyed. He immediately turned to face Jiuxing Lian'er and the other three and shouted, "This vicious demon cultivator must be killed by everyone in the cultivation world."

Xue Kong narrowed his eyes slightly. Seeing that something was wrong, he remained calm, took a few steps back, and came to Jiuxing Lian'er's side.

He lowered his voice and said, "My lord, the four of us together can only fight against one at the tenth level of Qi Condensation."

"If these three join forces, we will surely die. They must not be together."

"I suggest..."

Xue Kong paused for a moment before continuing, "I suggest we scatter so they can't gather and annihilate us. Only when they become careless and scatter, will we have a chance to survive."

Jiuxing Lian'er glanced at Xue Kong in surprise. At this critical moment of life and death, she found that this man was so calm and steady. He was not panicked at all and analyzed the chance of survival in a moment.

When gathered together, it becomes stone; when dispersed, it becomes sand.

Whether it was the four of them or the three crazy people, it was the same.

Comparing the strength of both sides, Xue Kong's suggestion obviously has a greater chance of survival.

However, if they all dispersed, they would no longer have the chance to fight back under the suppression of their cultivation and could only run away.

Xue Kong and Bai Mian, who have the lowest cultivation, would probably be doomed to death if they were targeted by anyone.

"I think this method is feasible." Chi Yao came over at some point and agreed with Xue Kong's suggestion.

"Brother, please come with me. I will run alone to attract the enemies for you." Xue Kong spoke quickly and immediately assigned the scattered teams.

"Are you alone?" This time, not only Chi Yao, but Bai Mian was also surprised.

Xue Kong's decision undoubtedly put himself in the most dangerous situation. Being hunted down by a Qi Condensation level 10 person at the Qi Condensation level 7, he was almost certain to die.

Only Jiuxing Lian'er's eyes flickered.

The other two didn't know Xue Kong's deeper meaning, but she had some guesses.

"His soul and blood are in my body. If I die, he will be buried with me." Jiuxing Lian'er always thought that Xue Kong was a smart person, but only at this moment did he reveal his decisive and ruthless decision-making.

Fight for survival and seek a glimmer of hope.

Otherwise, among these four people, he would have the highest chance of dying.

"Stop being so indecisive. If that dragon-turned-phoenix makes a move, we'll all disperse and flee in different directions."

Xue Kong's tone suddenly became anxious, and he continued, "There are three peaks behind us. In ten days, if you are lucky enough to survive, we will meet at the highest mountain."

"Junior brother, you are so righteous!" Chi Yao turned his head and looked at Xue Kong deeply with respect in his eyes.

He could not have imagined that at this critical moment, Xue Kong would actually make the heroic act of sacrificing himself for justice, which is rare in this treacherous world of cultivation.

"It's a bit too late for you to escape now." Dianlong sneered and suddenly raised his hand. The pressure of the tenth level of Qi Condensation spread out and spiritual power leaked out.

"Run!" Xue Kong shouted.

The four of them immediately fled in three different directions.

As soon as Dianlong's power dissipated, Xue Kong and the other three were left with only their receding backs.

"Quite clever." Dianlong sneered.
