Amidst the rampage of demons, the Heavenly Lan Sect's Sect Leader Han Song led his Golden Core stage disciples to firmly guard the barrier outside An Yuan Town.

Mu Yu's face turned black, and black blood spurted from his lips, which horrified the junior disciples.

"Senior Brother, you should go back first. That Princess Chunmei is too powerful. You've been poisoned by her demonic poison and need to find a quiet place to expel it!"

Mu Yu didn't say anything; he shook his head.

He responded to his junior brothers with great difficulty each time.

The sect leader and several elders went to the Demon Realm to repair the loopholes. The Demon Clan's Great Protector, Qing Shang, had somehow learned some kind of puppetry secret technique and used the natural evil energy of Black Fiend Mountain to create a large number of combat puppets that were extremely poisonous.

Master Yujing, together with several elders from other sects, led a group of elders from his own family to the Demon Realm.

Sounds intimidating, right?

In reality, he was extremely miserable. Master Yujing knew that this was Qing Shang's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain, but he had no effective way to stop the other party.

The disciples with lower cultivation levels would be immediately assimilated as soon as they got close to the combat puppets.

Several highly skilled elders embarked on their journey to the Demon Realm with the determination that they would never return.

Sect Leader Hansong even prepared a secret order for Mu Yu. Before leaving, he made a special trip around the Tianlan Sect to take one last look at the place where he had lived for many years.

Within the entire sect, only he and Han Bai, the sect leader of the Fu Sect, were stationed there.

"The demons are coming on strong, and they won't stop until they destroy the sect. If I retreat, the morale will drop, and Chunmei will take the opportunity to attack the sect in one fell swoop. The consequences will be unimaginable!" Mu Yu swallowed a detoxifying pill, and his expression eased slightly.

On the horizon lurks rampant vengeful spirits, while on the opposite side loom menacing demons.

Even though the protective formation that Master Yujing had reinforced twice before leaving was full of loopholes in the face of the powerful demon soldiers.

"Why are you men dawdling like this!" Hua Nuansu, who arrived late, was a little annoyed. "As long as the green hills remain, there's always firewood to burn!"

Mu Yu turned around and was pleasantly surprised to find that not only was Junior Sister Hua clear-headed, but her spiritual energy was also incredibly pure and powerful, and her cultivation had improved considerably compared to before she entered seclusion.

However, his joy lasted only three seconds before he was forcibly fed a royal-grade spirit-replenishing pill, and then, smiling, his pressure point was pressed to put him to sleep!

"Hey, Senior Sister Hua, how could you lay a hand on Senior Brother Mu Yu?" The junior disciple asked, puzzled and clearly displeased.

"Now that Senior Brother Mu Yu has fallen asleep, whose orders are we supposed to follow? You should at least make him assign us our tasks before he goes to sleep!"

"Stop nagging! Seriously, eat more pig brains when you have nothing to do, it'll make you more careful!"

As soon as the colorful magic was unleashed, the jade tablet symbolizing the identity of the Hundred Flowers Peak elder shimmered in mid-air.

The disciples were initially indignant that she had rashly knocked Mu Yu unconscious, but they all fell silent upon seeing the jade token that indicated a high-ranking member of the sect.

Before losing consciousness, Mu Yu was a little resentful. How could his defenses have been broken by Junior Sister Hua?

A radiant aura of heroism emanated from Hua Nuansu's eyes and brows. As the only Nascent Soul cultivator in the sect at present, she naturally took over Mu Yu's position.

Sui An, who was assigned to do chores for Mu Yu, said, "Senior Sister Hua, how did you advance so quickly? I can't even tell your current cultivation level anymore!"

"Of course, so you're still too lazy!"

He was ruthless and didn't talk much. "Take good care of the eldest senior brother. Just send him to Lotus Lake. Once he's there, he'll use his magic to detoxify himself."

Well, how should I put it? Sui'an used to manage books in the library. His main strength is in book research, and he is naturally knowledgeable about everything in the world.

Their research on techniques and methods is somewhat lacking.

I was choked by the warmth of the flowers.

He glanced at her silently. As the future master of Hundred Flowers Peak, Hua Nuansu had not had a strong presence in the sect before, but judging from her current cultivation level and the jade token she just used to command everyone to resist the demon soldiers, she was using an elder-level token!

This means that she has passed the trial assessment for the peak master of Hundred Flowers Peak.

Sui An remained silent, taking the lead in following Hua Nuansu's arrangements.

"So, your senior brother fell down, and you replaced him with an idiot to fight me?" Chunmei sat on the demonic dragon, wearing a gorgeous black silk dress with gold patterns, symbolizing a demon princess. Her words carried an unconscious hint of seductive charm.

Hua Nuansu ignored her, and her gaze fell on the handsome male cultivator beside her, leaving her speechless for a moment.

Beneath the same black and gold silk robe, the rugged man with a scholarly air exuded a faintly familiar aura.

"Minmin, could you please take your five junior brothers to investigate the mountain-protecting formation and find out what flaws there are? Once Sui'an returns, you should repair them as soon as possible."

She took out a crystal-clear jade bottle, its mouth brimming with abundant spiritual energy, which was so pleasant to smell that it refreshed the mind and spirit.

Amidst the oppressive demonic aura, this shimmering golden divine light was like a gentle rain from heaven, lightly nourishing the weary crowd.

Minmin took the jade bottle with suspicion. "This is... Golden Glow Dust?"

“Yes, don’t worry about that now. Take this to Elder Hanbai and ask him to use Golden Glow Dust to re-carve and repair the runes on my sister’s runes.” Hua Nuansu ignored Chunmei’s clamor outside the barrier and said solemnly, “Elder Hanbai’s cultivation level is far lower than that of True Person Yujing. Even if he were to come forward, he would not be able to directly repair the loopholes in the barrier set up by True Person Yujing. With this Golden Glow Dust, it will be possible.”

"Remember, after the repairs are finished, ask Elder Hanbai to use the remaining Yingchen to draw some exorcism talismans and fire-ignition talismans. Go and return quickly!"

Minmin felt as if the small jade bottle in her hand weighed a thousand pounds. She nodded solemnly and went with her five Golden Core stage junior brothers to the sect's main hall to find Elder Hanbai.

Hua Nuansu directed the remaining junior disciples to hold their posts. With a calm expression, she methodically arranged for her fellow disciples to readjust their formation positions, quickly making up for the loopholes caused by Chunmei's attack in the previous round.

Chunmei grew impatient, a wicked smile spreading across her face. "Little fool, I underestimated you!"
