Jiang Xinghai said, "It's Instructor Cui Mingfeng!"
"It's him!"
Cui Mingfeng is an instructor at the Dan Dao Academy.
Lan Hua knew this person. His impression of Cui Mingfeng was that he was unremarkable, mediocre, and seemed to have no interest in the affairs of the Dan Shen Temple.
This person is rather gossipy and likes to ask about things.
Lan Hua said softly, "Could this Cui Mingfeng be a spy sent by the Immortal Sword Sect or the Overlord Blade Sect?"
Jiang Xinghai frowned slightly. "You mean, if he's an undercover agent, then he wants to use me to bring this box out of the forbidden area?"
Lan Hua nodded. He now felt that the Dan Shen Palace was rife with intrigue and treachery, seemingly harboring many conspiracies and treacherous schemes.
After all, the Pill God Palace has stood on the Xuanhuang Continent for ten thousand years. Such a long time makes it too easy to be infiltrated.
Jiang Xinghai picked up the black box. "I trespassed into the forbidden area behind the cliff, and this box was almost taken by a villain. I should personally confess my crime to the Law Enforcement Court!"
"Lanhua, this matter has nothing to do with you, don't worry!"
Lan Hua looked grateful.
The two turned to leave, but after only a few steps, five figures suddenly appeared and blocked their way.
Upon closer inspection, Lan Hua recognized them as members of the Immortal Sword Sect and the Overlord Blade Sect.
He knew all five of them.
The two men, with half-white hair, were elders from two major sects: Fang He and Qin Chuan. They possessed extremely high cultivation levels and had both participated in the battle to subdue the Yinluo Sect.
The other two are Duan Chenglong and Xu Chuan, and the last one is Chang Fa, who returned after leaving.
Lan Hua laughed and said, "Oh ho, Brother Duan, we meet again!"
Duan Chenglong snorted coldly, as if he were looking at a dead man.
Chang Fa asked, "Lanhua, where is Zhao Feng?"
Lan Hua pointed in a direction, "He's tired, he's lying over there."
Duan Chenglong's expression changed instantly, naturally understanding Lan Hua's meaning.
He killed a dignified sword cultivator at the Transformation Realm, his methods were ruthless, how could Duan Chenglong not be surprised.
"You bastard Lan Hua, how dare you kill someone from my Immortal Sword Sect!"
Lan Hua feigned surprise, "What? The Immortal Sword Sect? Didn't he say himself that he was just a rogue cultivator? How did he get involved with the Immortal Sword Sect!"
"Could he be a traitor from the Immortal Sword Sect?"
Elder Fang He, standing behind Duan Chenglong, calmly said, "Hand over the black box, or you'll be torn to pieces!"
Jiang Xinghai angrily said, "This box belongs to my Pill God Palace, how can you take it!"
"That's right, the contents of this box are the most precious treasures of my Pill God Palace. How can you just give them away because you want them!"
“A priceless treasure, do you understand?” Lan Hua emphasized.
The old man narrowed his eyes, his right hand forming a sword shape with his fingers. With a slight movement, a sword light fell, blasting a large crater in the ground.
"The pit's been dug. Are you going to give me the stuff or not?"
"If you don't give it to me, this pit will be your grave!"
As soon as the sword light appeared, Lan Hua had already drawn her bow, and an invisible arrow of light condensed and pointed at the box in Jiang Xinghai's hand.
The person opposite was shocked and drew their swords and knives.
Even the two elders were unsettled, secretly thinking that this young man was quite remarkable, with an exceptionally quick mind.
"Don't move, or I'll shoot this box apart, and then you won't get anything!"
Lan Hua had already realized that the elders of the Immortal Sword Sect had murderous intent towards him, and that even if they handed over the black box, they would not escape their fate of being killed.
Moreover, the first to be torn to pieces might be Lan Hua himself, after all, the feud between him and the Immortal Sword Sect is getting deeper and deeper.
He had to seize the initiative and prevent them from having the opportunity to kill him and silence him.
The people from the Immortal Sword Sect and the Overlord Blade Sect slowly lowered their swords. Xu Chuan said, "Brother Lan, don't get agitated. Everything can be discussed!"
Jiang Xinghai knew the situation was serious and whispered, "Lanhua, what should we do next?"
Lan Hua shook his head; he didn't know what to do either.
"Brother Duan, Brother Xu, if you want the box, you'd better retreat a hundred feet!" Lan Hua said in a deep voice.
Duan Chenglong said fiercely, "What tricks are you trying to pull?"
Lan Hua feigned composure: "What tricks could I possibly have? You have two Danxia Realm experts behind you, and we can't fly. What tricks do you think we could possibly have?"
"Even if I use a little trick, what are you afraid of?"
A master of the Danxia Realm is indeed beyond Lan Hua's ability to deal with; even with the Cloud Piercing Arrow, he can only handle one.
As for the other person, Lan Hua had no time to resist and could only be slaughtered.
“Fifty zhang, we will only retreat fifty zhang!” Elder Qin Chuan behind Xu Chuan said.
"However, you must put the black box on the ground!"
Lan Hua laughed and said, "Fifty zhang it is, I won't haggle with you!"
For him, being able to force the enemy to retreat was at least a good thing.
Jiang Xinghai placed the box on the ground, and Lan Hua's invisible arrow continued to point at the box.
After the five people retreated fifty feet, Lan Hua and Jiang Xinghai also began to retreat, also to a distance of fifty feet.
At this distance, even if the elders of the Immortal Sword Sect had the fastest flying swords, they couldn't outrun Lan Hua's invisible arrow.
He could definitely blow up the black box before the enemy's flying sword arrived.
The two elders deeply understood this point.
After all, they had witnessed Lan Hua's black iron arrow repelling Du Yuanlang, who was at the Danxia Realm, during the campaign against the Yinluo Sect.
It wasn't that Lan Hua didn't want to retreat directly to the Pill God Palace; otherwise, they would have been killed by flying swords from afar before they even ran a few miles.
As long as Lan Hua's invisible arrow stays within the black box, the five opponents will absolutely not dare to move.
Jiang Xinghai said softly, "Lanhua, what do we do next?"
Lan Hua said, "Next, we'll have to see how Instructor Jiang performs. Do you have any idea on how to notify the sect elders to come to our aid?"
Jiang Xinghai nodded slightly, "No problem!"
Suddenly, Jiang Xinghai extended both hands simultaneously, and two tongues of fire shot out from his palms, merging into a giant fire dragon that soared into the sky.
A blue-purple fire dragon soared into the sky, piercing the darkness and illuminating the surrounding area.
Fang He and Qin Chuan were shocked, not expecting their opponent to use such a powerful move as summoning reinforcements.
Just as the two were about to grab the black box, several voices came from behind them.
"Who dares to lay a hand on anyone from my Pill God Palace?"
His voice was loud and powerful, full of confidence, demonstrating his cultivation level in the Danxia Realm.
Several figures flew rapidly towards this direction; they were the elders of the Pill God Palace coming to provide support.
Fang He rushed toward the black box, but Lan Hua wouldn't let him have his way.
Once he obtains the black box, before the elders of the Pill God Palace arrive, he will kill the two members of his own side.
With one arrow, four enormous, invisible arrows of light shot straight at the black box, which was the fourth form of the Invisible Arrow, aimed from all directions.
"Instructor Jiang, let's go!"
Lan Hua called out and immediately took off running, rushing towards the Pill God Palace.
Fang He was startled, not expecting Lan Hua's archery skills to be so tricky. He quickly summoned his flying sword and blocked the black box.
At the same time, a flash of light appeared.
Qin Chuan also made his move, his blade energy piercing the air and shattering the three light arrows.
The remaining one was intercepted by the flying sword, but the flying sword was almost knocked away by the impact.
Fang He secretly thought that the archery skills were impressive.
Just as Fang He and Qin Chuan were about to catch up with Lan Hua and kill him, the four elders of the Pill God Palace arrived.
Fang He had no choice but to say urgently, "Retreat!"
The two elders then led everyone and flew towards the Immortal Sword Sect.
Seeing the members of the Immortal Sword Sect and the Overlord Blade Sect flee, Lan Hua and Jiang Xinghai finally stopped, their backs already soaked with sweat.
Being caught up by a Danxia Realm expert is no joke.
