"What do you mean by that? You want to abandon me? Let me tell you, Xiao Feng, wherever you are, I will be there too. If you choose to stay in the Ming Cult, I will stay with you."
Zhao Yuwei's eyebrows furrowed, clearly unhappy with what Xiao Feng had just said.
"Senior sister, of course I know you are willing to live and die with me, but I don't want you to die. Besides, with my great skills, it's impossible for me to die in this great battle. I just want you to leave first, and I'll find you again after I get away." Xiao Feng forced a smile.
Zhao Yuwei sneered and slapped Xiao Feng's hand away: "Do you think I'm stupid? You think you can fool me so easily? Let me tell you, we'll be together in life and in death! I will never leave you."
Looking into Zhao Yuwei's eyes, which were filled with anger, Xiao Feng couldn't say anything more.
He could only sigh softly and hug Zhao Yuwei tightly.
Outside the courtyard gate, Su Xueqing, who had heard the whole story, couldn't help but sigh that no matter how deep her feelings for Xiao Feng were, they could never compare to Zhao Yuwei's.
"The situation is not that dire. As the Holy Maiden of the Ming Cult, I know that deep within the Ming Cult lies a weapon powerful enough to kill most of the invaders this time."
Su Xueqing walked into the courtyard from outside, along with her words of comfort to Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei.
"Xueqing, what did you just say?" Zhao Yuwei got out of Xiao Feng's arms and immediately walked towards Su Xueqing.
"As the Holy Maiden of the Ming Cult, I naturally know some secrets that others do not. Originally, I was not very clear about this secret either. I learned about it by chance from my father."
Su Xueqing smiled, her gaze fixed on Zhao Yuwei, without giving Xiao Feng a second glance.
"If we could take out this weapon now, wouldn't we be able to immediately resolve the Ming Cult's crisis?" Zhao Yuwei asked directly.
Su Xueqing shook her head and said, "That thing can only be taken out when the Ming Cult is in its most critical moment. Moreover, unless the Ming Cult has been defeated, once that thing leaves the Ming Cult, it will also bring crisis to the Ming Cult."
At this point, Su Xueqing gave a desolate smile and said directly, "It is said to be a great weapon that can turn the tide, but in reality it is nothing more than something that will cause the Ming Cult and the foreign invaders to perish together."
Zhao Yuwei's eyes dimmed.
Su Xueqing stepped forward, took Zhao Yuwei's hand, and said, "I heard what you just said. I am very grateful that you are willing to stay here, but you really don't need to live and die with the Ming Cult. I want to arrange for someone to send you away."
Zhao Yuwei immediately shook her head: "We won't leave. Even if we go to the ends of the earth, we won't have peace. We might as well kill to our hearts' content here. Senior Poison Emperor has already advised us. Since we have made our decision, we will never go back on it."
Su Xueqing clearly wanted to say something more, but Zhao Yuwei directly raised her hand and hugged Su Xueqing tightly.
"Are you trying to persuade us to leave because you haven't let go of him yet? If we stay here, at least when it really comes to the end, you can die in the same place as him, right?"
Although Su Xueqing was no longer fixated on her feelings for Xiao Feng.
But such a long-lasting love cannot be let go so easily.
At least what Zhao Yuwei said now has made her somewhat tempted.
Because Zhao Yuwei spoke to Su Xueqing in her ear.
Therefore, Xiao Feng could only see the astonishment and surprise that flashed across Su Xueqing's face after Zhao Yuwei hugged her, but he did not know what Zhao Yuwei said to Su Xueqing.
“You…” Su Xueqing looked at Zhao Yuwei in front of her with some surprise.
"Am I right?" Zhao Yuwei smiled.
Su Xueqing didn't say anything more, just nodded silently, and then left the courtyard.
Later, when Xiao Feng asked Zhao Yuwei what she had just said to Su Xueqing, Zhao Yuwei did not tell him the truth.
Time quickly passed to the third day when the mountain-protecting formation was about to collapse.
Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei finally made their move.
Before the two of them could make their move, Su Xueqing had already struck first, injuring several powerful sect disciples through the protective mountain formation.
The mountain-protecting formation is meant to protect the Ming Cult, so naturally, attacks from inside can be launched outwards, while attacks from outside cannot penetrate inwards.
For the past three days, they have been attacking the sect disciples outside, but this time there are far too many sect disciples, and they also have the ability to protect themselves.
After Su Xueqing was exhausted, Xiao Feng and Zhao Yuwei took action, and the two of them immediately defeated a large number of sect disciples.
The attacks from the prestigious sects outside weakened considerably in an instant.
The two men's intervention finally allowed everyone to breathe a sigh of relief.
However, before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, the new sect leader of Tianyi Sect and the old ancestor who had always coveted Xiao Feng's body also arrived.
The patriarch was very angry.
He originally thought Xiao Feng was still in the demon realm, so he made a special trip to the demon realm.
However, once inside the demon realm, he discovered that he could no longer sense Xiao Feng's presence.
When he used his magic again to sense where Xiao Feng was, he discovered that Xiao Feng had already returned to the Ming Cult.
He had no choice but to turn around and take the new sect leader of Tianyi Sect back to Mingjiao.
Tianyi Sect naturally also sent many disciples.
Xiao Feng's gaze fell on the face of the new sect leader of Tianyi Sect, and he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
This is interesting. This new sect leader looks completely different from Xuan Yuan Shu Mou; they don't resemble each other at all.
Could it be that he is not from the Xuanyuan lineage?
If I remember correctly, the ancestor of Tianyi Sect should have been surnamed Xuanyuan. He is simply handing over the sect of his bloodline descendants.
Xiao Feng quickly noticed that the way the patriarch of the Tianyi Sect was looking at him was a little strange.
"Why is Ancestor Tianyi here?" Several other sect leaders were surprised after recognizing the ancestor's identity.
“Our Tianyi Sect is also one of the major sects. Since you have come to besiege the Demonic Sect, how could you not inform us? We naturally want to do our part.”
These words were not spoken by the patriarch, but by the newly appointed sect leader of the Tianyi Sect.
"This must be the new sect leader of Tianyi Sect, Sect Leader Nanlitian, right?" The sect leader who had just inquired about the situation quickly greeted him.
"It is indeed I. I have just assumed the position of Sect Master of Tianyi Sect, so naturally I have come to join you all in punishing the Demonic Sect and slaying its followers!" Nanli Tian said politely.
The old patriarch ignored everyone; the first thing he saw when he arrived was Xiao Feng.
The Ancestor was very satisfied with Xiao Feng's physical condition; Xiao Feng was absolutely the perfect vessel for him.
Xiao Feng's gaze also fell on the old ancestor Xuanyuan. Why did this old monster look at him as if he wanted to eat him up?
