"Why should I wait for him to come." He Lingtian sneered, "If you hadn't made a temporary substitution, my artistic conception would have already been formed. Since it is you who have ruined my Dao heart, then there is no need for me to keep you." As he spoke, he swung out a sword.
"Block—" A seemingly casual, yet murderous sword strike was blocked by a shield that suddenly appeared. A surge of force flung the two young men who had been blocking Lin Wanwan's path. As luck would have it, they were thrown into the valley's defensive formation behind them.

He Lingtian looked up and saw Xiao Yu standing in mid-air: "Fellow Daoist Xiao, are you trying to meddle in other people's business?"
Xiao Yu glanced at Lin Wanwan, who was no longer obstructing him. She smiled nervously, "Friend He, you're joking. I'm already a married man. What's going on between you two has nothing to do with me. I came here just because I'm attracted to the two young men. Now, do whatever you want."
Lin Wanwan was furious. She had finally found four shields, and it was dangerous enough that two of them died, and now they were taken away by Xiao Yu.
"Friend Xiao, I have no grudge against you, right?"
Xiao Yu looked down at the aggressive Lin Wanwan with a disdainful look and an indifferent expression: "Maybe we didn't have any hatred in the past, but who knows whether we will have it in the future." If you dare to use my son as a shield, I want to kill you. If there is no hatred, go to hell with you.
He Lingtian's eyes flashed with confusion: "As far as I know, Fellow Daoist Xiao already has enough sons. How come these two from the outside world are also interested in him?"
Xiao Yu smiled: "I just think they look a lot like my Taoist partner. I plan to take them back and ask if he ran away to the outer realm to meet someone else. Since Taoist He is not a Yuan Yang body, he should have left a child outside, right?"
Lin Wanwan's expression changed, and she looked at He Lingtian in disbelief: "How is that possible? I saw him before and he was clearly in the Yuan Yin body."
He Lingtian sneered: "I have practiced for over three hundred years and only became a mortal once. Do you think I should remain a chaste woman for you, a woman who only cares about profit and forgets righteousness?"
Lin Wanwan was stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage: "You're so righteous that you forget your principles for the sake of profit. How dare you? For decades in the Suzaku Divine Sect, I've been supporting you. You're so ashamed to say that I'm righteous for the sake of profit. I'm really giving you face."
Xiao Yu touched his nose and smiled, "This is pretty much what I heard. Fellow Daoist He, you've been living off this gigolo for decades, and you're going to kill someone just because they don't want you to eat anymore. That's a bit unfair!"
He Lingtian: ...
"By the way, Fellow Daoist He, Xiao has been playing a game recently. To do this, he has won over many cultivators from other regions. Do you want to try my game? We usually don't kill people. At most, we rob people."
He Lingtian: ╰_ ╯…You actually made it sound like robbery in such a righteous way.
"As far as I know, Brother Zhou has always been the head of the family in Brother Xiao's household." Where do you get the confidence that you can defeat him?
Xiao Yu smiled. "Fellow Daoist He, you're wrong. After all, I'm a man. As a man, I definitely like fighting and killing. Fellow Daoist He, I think you can really try out the sword formation I've rehearsed. I guarantee it will be worth it. If you win, we won't take a penny. If you lose, for the sake of our former fellow disciples, we'll just give you a storage magic weapon or something, and that'll be it."

He Lingtian looked at Xiao Yu, his intuition telling him that this man was no pushover. How could someone who could stand before the Young Master of the Western Wasteland, said to possess a Seven-Aperture Heart, and even form a Dao Companion Contract with him, be so simple?
Seeing his silence, Xiao Yu took it as his agreement and shouted, "Guests are coming! The sword formation welcomes them."
"Okay!" An echo came from the valley.
He Lingtian: ...
"Buzz..." In just a moment, a golden formation covering an area of one kilometer suddenly rose in the area that was still peaceful a second ago.
As a sword cultivator, He Lingtian instantly sensed the sword intent in the formation.
This is indeed a sword formation.
"Fourth-level formation?" A fourth-level advanced formation.
"If Fellow Daoist He wants the fifth level, that's fine too." Xiao Yu said, and the formation, which was originally at the fourth level, changed to the fifth level with a flash of red light after he quickly formed a seal.
He Lingtian: ...
"Are you in the Samsara Realm?"
"Almost. My fellow Daoist said that once you reach the Tribulation Reincarnation Realm, you can't return. So for now, you're still in the Dan Yuan Realm. Don't worry, Daoist He."
“…”
"The formation has been activated. It would be a waste of spirit stones if we don't fight. Let's begin." Xiao Yu smiled, and the next second, he teleported away from the sword formation.
At the same time, the rain of swords in the sky turned into an entangled galaxy, surging down.
When Lin Wanwan saw the rain of swords pouring down from above her head, she immediately took out her defensive magic weapon and hid herself inside it.
He Lingtian glanced at Lin Wanwan, who had already ducked like a turtle. He flipped his sword in his hand, threw it into the air, and began to rapidly form hand seals. Countless spirit swords were separated, forming a huge, dazzling red sword phoenix.
The phoenix cried out in the sky, soaring into the clouds, and violently fought against the golden sword dragon roaring down from the sword formation.
