Upon learning that Elder Yuan had died due to Song Xia's array formation, Shi Tiankui nearly suffered a mental breakdown from the shock. She dared not utter a single word and could only look at them in fear.

Seeing her like this, the cultivators in the far west became even more certain that she was definitely not some so-called savior. The chosen savior was so cowardly? How could she possibly save the world?

Therefore, for everyone's future, everyone's fighting spirit was very high. They absolutely could not let the people of Shenyuan Sect and Xuanguang Sect disturb Senior Song from retrieving the True Phoenix Bloodline from Shi Tiankui.

Despite the extreme caution of Master Qing and Fairy Su Mu, they still encountered numerous ambushes along the way, and many elders and disciples were injured, becoming as frightened as startled birds.

Master Qing and Fairy Su Mu took a deep breath. They were surprised to find that their disciples were so useless that they couldn't even withstand this test and were so timid and hesitant.

The longer time dragged on, the more anxious the two became. Who knew what their daughter, Tiankui, was going through? It was only because Shi Tianning and Shi Tiankui, the twins, had a telepathic connection and knew that Shi Tiankui's life was not in immediate danger that they did not panic.

"This won't do. We must immediately send a message to the elders of the Nine Heavens Palace and request their support."

"Them?" Master Qing frowned. "Ever since last time, the people from the Nine Heavens Palace have stopped paying attention to our two sects. How can we possibly get them to come?"

"This concerns the world; I don't believe they don't care."

"But didn't you notice? Song Xia is setting up a formation specifically for us. People from both of our sects simply can't get out of this far west."

Su Mu Fairy's breathing became heavy. She thought that the person who was supposed to die long ago was not only alive, but also appeared in front of her with such a high level of cultivation. It was as if she was trampling on her face. She knew before that Song Xia would be her nemesis. She never expected that the person who was so vulnerable back then would become so powerful now!

How did someone with no power, influence, or background manage to get to where they are today?

Why is Song Xia's fortune so strong? Why do I only have the Eye of Salvation, but not the bloodline of the True Phoenix? Why do those inheritances favor this despicable Song Xia?

Su Mu wanted to question the heavens: why did they have to play such a cruel joke on her life?

"Even if we can't get out, we'll fight our way out!" Fairy Su Mu shouted fiercely. "Otherwise, do you want to die here one by one?"

“We definitely need to send people from the Nine Heavens Palace.” Elder Ying agreed. “She’s a ghost cultivator, and her methods are too mysterious. Perhaps only the Nine Heavens Palace has a way to deal with her. We absolutely cannot let anything happen to Tian Kui.”

Seeing this, Shi Changqing could only nod and divide his men into two teams: one team would follow him and Su Mu to find his daughter Tiankui, while the other team would break through to notify the Nine Heavens Palace to come to their rescue.

Both teams were in a very heavy mood. They had a large number of people on this trip, and each of them was either a prodigy or exceptionally talented. Moreover, none of them had a cultivation level below the Golden Core stage. However, even Elder Yuan, who was at the late stage of the Integration Realm, had perished here. Could they really break through safely?

Some of the younger disciples couldn't understand why that person named Song Xia would kidnap Junior Sister Tian Kui, why he would bring up Junior Sister Tian Kui's True Phoenix Bloodline, and what kind of riddle he was trying to crypt through his talk of things that didn't belong to Junior Sister Tian Kui.

Many people harbored resentment, wondering why Song Xia, the young sect leader, Fairy Su Mu, and Shi Tiankui were dragged into the conflict, needlessly involving them in this crisis.

Aren't Junior Brother Tianning and Junior Sister Tiankui saviors? Why can't they resolve this crisis themselves?

Many disciples harbored resentment but dared not express it, and could only grit their teeth and obey orders. However, how much effort they put in during battle depended on their individual performance.

But from the sect's perspective, the sect has given you protection and resources, but when it comes to using you, you all become cowards and afraid of death. Where can the sect reason with you?

It can only be said that the Divine Origin Sect and the Profound Light Sect have had too many smooth sailing years. They have become accustomed to bullying other rogue cultivators and seizing resources. Due to the size of the Divine Origin Sect and the Profound Light Sect, most rogue cultivators do not dare to resist. This has made them more greedy and lazy by nature.

Having had too many good days, who would want to live a life of constant danger and risk of death? Of course, one would prefer to be lazy whenever possible and avoid getting hurt.

Therefore, when fighting against cultivators from the far west, the difference in skill level was quite obvious. Despite being cultivators of the same level, the disciples of the Divine Origin Sect and the Profound Light Sect dared not face them head-on, fighting with great cowardice and fear, for fear of getting injured.

Seeing that Shi Liuchuan was becoming increasingly decisive in his actions, someone exclaimed in disbelief, "You're Shi Liuchuan?"

"Shi Liuchuan? How could he be Shi Liuchuan?" the others asked in astonishment. They had been so focused on escaping that they hadn't looked closely at his face, but now that they looked closely, it was indeed Shi Liuchuan!

But how is that possible? How could Shi Liuchuan, who is as useless as a dog, have cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage in such a short time!

"Look at his sword moves, they're accompanied by the sound of a dragon's roar, why?"

"Could it be... that he also has the bloodline of a true dragon?"

This conjecture surprised everyone. They had only ever seen this kind of unstoppable, domineering aura in their junior brother Tianning. Now, seeing Shi Liuchuan again, they had the illusion that this person's aura was even stronger than that of their junior brother Tianning.

No, perhaps it's not an illusion. Junior Brother Tianning's sword energy is definitely not that sharp. This person's combat power seems to be even greater.

"Heh, you finally recognized me." Shi Liuchuan did not deny it. These people had all bullied him, mocked him, or treated him like an ant. Now, none of them were his match.

As Mother said, the Divine Origin Sect and the Profound Light Sect are not as terrifying as they seem. It's just that their evil deeds over the years have created a strong appearance for them, but in reality, they are a filthy mess with no cohesion and are easy to deal with.

"Do you still remember how you humiliated me back then?" Shi Liuchuan sneered. "Want to leave? Not so easy."

The sword energy blocked their path, terrifying the younger disciples and darkening the faces of the elders.

The sect's disciples advanced faster than Shi Liuchuan, yet they are now genuinely afraid of someone at the early Nascent Soul stage—it's utterly ridiculous!

"Shi Liuchuan, stop being so arrogant! Take this!"

Shi Liuchuan, however, wisely withdrew, saying, "Old man, it's not honorable to bully the weak. Enjoy the generous gift I've prepared for you!"

After these words were spoken, the scene before the eyes of the people from Shenyuan Sect and Xuanguang Sect changed, clearly indicating that they had once again entered the illusion that terrified them.

Another formation! Another illusion! Why can't we just fight fair and square?

Despite their cursing and swearing, if they also possessed such methods, they would surely use them in the same way. Is this the terror of ancient traditions? Why were the two sects a step behind?

Aren't Shi Tianning and Shi Tiankui saviors? Why are their luck inferior to others?
