"Take action!"

Ying Wuji gave the order directly, no need for further discussion.

Even if the opponent is a powerful expert in the realm of enlightenment, their strength will still be limited by their physical body.

Just a mere fifty people, I don't believe...

"Boom!"

A palm print appeared out of thin air, powerful and heavy, like a collapsing mountain.

The seemingly unbreakable formation of the royal family and the Mohist guild was almost shattered. The planned preemptive attack was instantly aborted.

Everyone was shocked and bewildered.

They didn't expect Li Caitan's preemptive strike to be so powerful.

The remaining demonic beings of our sect quickly dispersed without any communication, but their cooperation was incredibly tacit. In the chaotic moment when the formation was disrupted, they accurately found the weak point.

Their attacks were decisive and ruthless.

In the blink of an eye, several people fell to the ground, and the remaining ones could only grit their teeth and endure, one after another unleashing their trump cards.

The Prison of Laws!

Non-Attack Domain!

Two domains quickly covered the area, one causing group damage based on rules, the other forcefully dispelling killing intent. This instantly weakened the combat power of our sect's demonic beings by one level, but at least the formation was maintained.

Many demonic beings were hit by hidden weapons, but their brows didn't even furrow. The true energy in their bodies was boiling like a cauldron.

They had all used the Essence-Kneading Secret Technique.

Facing four times their number and enduring two domains, they were actually able to fight back and even gain the upper hand.

When it's not their own bodies, of course they can knead their essence as they please!

Ying Wuji couldn't help but complain. He had underestimated the strength of the expert in the realm of enlightenment. Even with the limitations of their physical body, they could still fight alone.

He quickly crushed the distress signal talisman.

"Hurry over!"

The talisman turned into ashes, confirming that the people from the Zhao family in the Grand Historian's Residence had received the message. He immediately activated the Thunder Technique.

Thunder gathered around his body and directly struck towards Li Caitan.

However, Li Caitan sneered and directly used his true energy to withstand it. This time, there was no surprise attack, so how could he be injured by Ying Wuji?

But unexpectedly, after blocking Ying Wuji's Thunder Technique, several lightning bolts suddenly appeared from somewhere.

Heavenly Thunder and Social Thunder exploded at the same time, causing her to retreat several steps in a sorry state.

"Young Master! I'll hold her back, you go quickly!"

Bai Zhi couldn't hold back any longer and directly turned into a blur, charging towards Li Caitan.

The long sword in her hand flickered with lightning, aiming directly for Li Caitan's vital points.

Li Caitan cursed inwardly, forced to defend himself. This sudden appearance of a little girl, although her cultivation level was not high, her swordsmanship was extremely cunning. He couldn't even capture her aura, and dealing with her while also using thunder techniques was quite troublesome.

Ying Wuji naturally wouldn't run away. He raised his long sword and prepared to kill this bus driver with Bai Zhi.

Although Li Caitan was fierce, he still had many trump cards that he hadn't revealed.

If they fought head-on, it was really hard to say who would live and who would die.

But unexpectedly, just as he took a step forward, he felt a heavy blow to his back. Under the immense force of ten thousand jin, his whole person was sent flying.

Intense pain pierced his heart, and he felt like his whole body was about to fall apart as he coughed up blood.

"Fuck!"

Ying Wuji's heart turned cold. He didn't expect the difference in strength to be so great.

But now was not the time to be shocked. Enduring the intense pain, he forced himself to stand up.

The Flower of Life rapidly circulated, quickly healing him by absorbing vitality from the blood on the ground.

"Not bad! You didn't faint after taking my blow. Have you already broken through the twelfth level in refining essence? Truly worthy of the bloodline of the Qian royal family!"

Hong Chen looked at Ying Wuji with a smile that wasn't a smile, but his gaze was extremely cold. "It's a pity, I originally planned to develop you as a subordinate, but you should just die!"

After speaking, he swung his heavy sword mercilessly.

Ying Wuji despised people like Hong Chen from the bottom of his heart, who disregarded the teachings of our sect. Even if he really hatched the demonic seed, he definitely wouldn't be at ease.

Kill!

He must kill!

But it seemed like he wasn't entirely wrong.

Forget it!

Let's not kill him!

His thoughts raced, and just as he was about to cut off Ying Wuji's head, he forcibly stopped his sword.

Hong Chen: "..."

He was a bit confused, not understanding why he had such a ridiculous thought.

Ying Wuji breathed a sigh of relief. The benevolent and forgiving nature of Confucianism, the saintly aura that disregarded differences in status, was indeed quite formidable.

Hong Chen was a bit angry and muttered, "You even learned this evil technique from Confucianism?"

"I yield!"

Ying Wuji wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and swung his sword directly.

The difference in cultivation level between the two sides was too great. He had to take advantage of the saintly aura before it disappeared and kill this Hong Chen.

Among the many independent cultivators, this body was the strongest.

As long as he killed this body, the people from the Zhao family might still have the strength to fight.

Hong Chen hurriedly dodged and threw out a bronze mirror, the mirror's surface shining brightly as it turned into a prison, forcibly trapping Ying Wuji.

"Li Caitan, stop playing around. I've been affected by an evil technique, come and finish him off!"

"Coming!"Li Caitan heard the words and no longer entangled with Bai Zhi. He immediately let go of all defenses and took two swords from Bai Zhi, exchanging it for a palm strike on Bai Zhi's body.

The power gap was too big, and Bai Zhi flew out like a sandbag, his head tilted and he fainted.

Li Caitan snorted and directly rushed towards Ying Wuji, stabbing his heart with a simple sword move.

There is more than one way to obtain the power of the original true energy, and she didn't have any fancy thoughts. She just wanted to directly open Ying Wuji's dantian.

"Damn it!"

Ying Wuji cursed and swallowed Emperor's Blood, forcibly activating Zhuanxu's Blood Ignition Technique. This was the biggest trump card given to him by his father-in-law.

However, the Blood Ignition Technique takes time, and Li Caitan's attack came too fast.

He was anxious and could only block with his sword.

With a "clang" sound, he was directly shaken onto a bronze mirror.

He blocked this sword, but couldn't block the Pure Yang True Qi. This True Qi, like a wild beast, forcibly rushed into his meridians and headed straight for his heart.

But at this moment.

"Boom!"

A loud noise, as if something blocked the impact of the True Qi.

The Yin Yang Unity Pendant suddenly lit up, releasing the True Qi.

"This..."

Li Caitan was about to use her ultimate move, but when she saw the Yin Yang Unity Pendant, she suddenly lost her focus.

This...

How did this jade pendant end up on Ying Wuji?

How did he get it?

In the palace, it wouldn't be stolen or robbed. Could it be that Li Caimei gave it to him?

But isn't she the Crown Princess?

Why would she be infatuated with Ying Wuji?

She didn't have time to consider all this and forcibly stopped her sword, because no matter what, Li Caimei chose to give the jade pendant away, which meant that the person in front of her was her sister's lover.

"This silly girl!"

Just in the short moment she stopped.

Ying Wuji's blood vessels were already boiling, and Zhuanxu's Blood Ignition Technique finally succeeded. The surging aura increased his True Qi by three or four times. Although he was still a step behind Li Caitan and Hongchen, he now had the power to fight.

He didn't know why Li Caitan was stunned, he only knew that if he didn't fight for his life now, he would only have a dead end.

Left hand thunder technique to attack the dantian.

Right hand sword to pierce the heart.

"Crack!"

Li Caitan suddenly snapped back to her senses, and her right hand, wrapped in True Qi, slapped the thunder technique to the side.

She smiled mockingly and shook the sword in her hand at Ying Wuji.

Ying Wuji was shocked. He didn't expect Li Caitan to be so powerful. If she had been hit by the thunder technique, his sword would have been successful. But since she wasn't hit, he could only forcefully fight, and the danger was difficult to estimate.

However, just when he thought this sword would miss, he saw Li Caitan's originally successful block subtly shift.

Then he saw the tip of the sword pierce through Li Caitan's right chest.

How did this succeed?

"Seeking death!"

Li Caitan's voice was filled with despair. She directly shook off Ying Wuji's sword-holding hand, grabbed his neck, and pressed him to the ground.

She squeezed hard, but didn't use any True Qi.

Ying Wuji couldn't understand the situation and was about to break free, but he heard Li Caitan's voice.

"Just with you guys, you can't beat Hongchen at all."

"I don't want to kill you. Use this to escape later!"

Her voice was not loud, but her lips hardly moved.

Phonetic control!

Ying Wuji: "..."

He was a bit confused. What was going on?

Could it be that Li Caitan is an undercover agent for our sect?

It's very possible!

As the sister of the Crown Princess, she colluded with our sect but was not executed. She escaped and hasn't been discovered yet. It's really possible that she was a spy who was turned!

Father-in-law is amazing!

In the moment of confusion, he felt a stone being stuffed into his arms.

Then he heard Li Caitan's voice.

"Hit me with a palm!"

"Okay!"

A palm strike was unleashed.

Li Caitan flew out, and her aura quickly weakened.

Hongchen was dumbfounded and quickly helped her up. The reversal came too fast, and he couldn't react in time.

"Li Caitan, what's going on?"

"The Confucian evil technique, and a mental control technique. This kid is too mysterious!"

Li Caitan gritted her teeth, but her aura was extremely weak.

Hongchen's expression was somewhat ferocious, but he saw that Ying Wuji had already recovered his vitality, as if he hadn't been injured at all.

Flowers bloomed in an instant?

How does this kid know everything?

"Brother Ying, we're here!"

"Lord Husband, we're here!"

Two groups of people rushed over mightily and quickly joined the battle.Gongsun Di couldn't bear the backlash and withdrew from the battle. Our sect has regained the advantage, but now the situation has become more intense with the sudden arrival of so many people.

Hongchen's face immediately turned ugly. He understood why the Zhao family was here, but why were people from the Kingdom Chu here too? Shouldn't they be looking for the "Zhuanxu Ancient Calendar"?

But he quickly realized that something was wrong.

Among these Zhao family members and people from the Kingdom Chu, about half of them did not participate in the battle. They were all covered in a strange red color, their energy was in disarray, and their bodies were obviously affected by poison, almost losing their ability to fight.

Mi Xingli, Xiang Ding, and Zhao Kuo, all these key figures were affected.

He glanced at the palace in the distance and suddenly understood everything. He didn't expect that the Grand Historian's office would overlap with the space of the Muye Stele. Nangong Ling, that old man, actually used poison, how ruthless!

Realizing this, a smug smile appeared on his face. "Ying Wuji, your people are about to be defeated. I suggest we stop now. Give us the Muye Stele, and you can take your people down to detoxify and heal. How about a win-win situation?"

"Fuck!"

Ying Wuji was also extremely annoyed and raised his middle finger at him. "You stop first!"

Hongchen raised his hand. "I'll count to three, and we'll stop together!"

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

"Stop!"

The chaotic battle instantly quieted down. Countless wounded soldiers had no intention of fighting anymore.

On the other side, they had lost a powerful expert and were completely outnumbered. Continuing the battle would definitely not be advantageous.

Therefore, neither side resorted to any tricks.

Both sides quickly separated and confronted each other.

Ying Wuji quickly rushed to his own camp and saw that all those who had just participated in the battle were covered in injuries. Gongsun Di was even foaming at the mouth from the backlash of the law.

They were already miserable enough.

But Mi Xingli and the others were even worse off.

They were covered in red spots, weak in energy, and looked like they were about to die.

Sure enough, something had happened.

Ying Wuji asked, "What happened?"

"Poison!"

Mi Xingli gritted her teeth. "The 'Zhuanxu Ancient Calendar' is easy to find, but it is guarded by a Blood Wolf King. The Blood Wolf King is very strong, at least at the level of a Martial Practitioner. It should be a totem beast brought by the Barbarians when they attacked City Jing back then.

But fortunately, it was trapped by the formation and chains. We planned to attack it from a distance and wear it down, but we didn't expect that there would be poison in its blood. Anyone who came into contact with its blood would be affected."

"What kind of poison?"

"I don't know, I don't understand poisons..."

"Damn it!"

Ying Wuji narrowed his eyes and took out a knife, looking at Zhao Kuo. "Come on! Let out some blood!"

Zhao Kuo was confused. "You should let her bleed!"

Ying Wuji cursed. "She's a girl, and she's not as disobedient as you. Why should I let her bleed?"

Zhao Kuo said, "No problem!"

Mi Xingli anxiously said, "Don't! This blood is dangerous."

"It's fine!"

Ying Wuji activated his true energy, and his whole body was surrounded by electric currents.

Lightning techniques were most effective against evil spirits, so dealing with poisons was a piece of cake.

He let out a drop of blood from Zhao Kuo's palm, pinched it and sniffed it in front of his nose, then activated the lightning technique to burn it, sniffed the burnt smell, and carefully observed the symptoms on everyone's bodies.

Finally, he found a correspondence with the "Control Gu Technique" that Iron Bull had burst out.

His face was filled with a murderous aura.

"This is the Blood Source Gu. The gu worms must breed inside the beast's body and remember the blood it devours. After maturing, they specifically infect people with similar bloodlines. The symptoms of the infection don't last long, but it's not because the gu worms disappear, but because they are dormant in the dantian. As long as the gu controller has a thought, the gu worms will die instantly."

"Ah?"

"Fuck!"

Upon hearing Ying Wuji's words, those who were infected immediately panicked.

Mi Xingli's face also turned pale. "Can it be cured?"

"Of course not!"

Hongchen walked over with a smile. "Only a specialized Control Gu Technique can cure this. Nangong Ling, that old man, is really vicious. I don't know how many descendants of Zhuanxu he has fed to the Blood Wolf King.

He won't kill you, and this gu won't have any other negative effects. But it can't be detected when it's hidden in your dantian, so no one can accuse him without evidence. From now on, they control your life and death, manipulate your every move, and even threaten your life to retreat. It's really sinister!"

Mi Xingli's face stiffened. "Is it true?"

"It's true!"

Ying Wuji's face also became extremely gloomy. "But he probably won't act easily. As long as you don't pose a threat to him, don't give him a chance to use you, he won't put you in a desperate situation..."

Mi Xingli: "..."

Xiang Ding: "..."Zhao Kuo: "......"

It's not only useless, but also a waste.

Everyone present is ambitious, otherwise they wouldn't have entered the Zhongpan and become useless, which is even more painful than killing them!

"Damn it! Nangong Ling, you old man!"

Zhao Kuo pounded the ground, filled with regret. If he had listened to Ying Wuji's words and hid behind the Chu Kingdom, or directly came to support the Muye Stele, the current situation would not have happened.

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in this world.

Now he just wants to devour Nangong Ling's flesh.

Hongchen laughed heartily: "Ying Wuji! Your people won't be able to recover their combat power for at least two hours. Although the remaining people are not weak, it will be difficult to wipe us out. Here's the deal, we'll take the Muye Stele with us. If your master is willing to give up the position of the chief and let the Grand Historian take over, we don't mind sharing the Muye Stele with you."

"What are you dreaming about?"

Ying Wuji spat, although many people from the Zhao and Mi families were poisoned, the remaining people were still elite.

They had the numerical advantage, and Li Caitan had lost his combat power.

Now they had the advantage.

Hongchen was strong, but not strong enough to this extent.

Seeing that he showed no intention of backing down, Hongchen narrowed his eyes: "It's okay! I'll give you some time to consider, but you better be quick. In three hours at most, those people outside will come in."

"Heh..."

Ying Wuji sneered. He didn't want to back down, but he also didn't want to act rashly.

All the bodies controlled by Hongchen had used the essence-burning technique, which could only be used until death.

Although its effectiveness was far inferior to Zhuan Xu's essence-burning technique, it could be used in a completely reckless manner. If they wanted to wipe them out, they would undoubtedly pay a price that was hard to bear.

So they would drag it out!

While you are burning your essence, we can heal.

The people outside still needed three hours.

I'll wait for you for an hour to see how much essence you have left.

And so, the two sides confronted each other.

But they didn't expect that just half an hour later, a voice came from a distance.

"Oh!"

"No wonder the Zhao and Mi families left so early. They really took the lead!"

"But what's the use of coming early? Didn't they start fighting first?"

"I didn't expect the Grand Historian's Office and the Muye Stele to come together. It's really a stroke of luck for me!"

"Seal the gate!"

"You guys, go and dismantle the formation of the Barbarian Totem Beast that's trapped there!"

The person speaking was none other than Nangong Ling.

He had already brought the entire Ji Clan Alliance and rushed over mightily.

"Bad news!"

Ying Wuji's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect them to arrive so soon.

If they sealed the exit and released the Barbarian Totem Beast, blood would definitely be spilled.

He had the protection of the Thunder Law, but the Zhao family and the other people from the Chu Kingdom would all suffer.

"Retreat, break through!"

He no longer dared to hesitate and directly led his people towards the exit.

The Zhao, Chu, and Mi families were too large in scale.

Nangong Ling also didn't want to conflict with them, so he directly ordered, "Let them pass. The exit has already been sealed with a formation. Even if they have ten times the number of people, they won't be able to break it!"

After saying that, he directly led his people to bypass them and passed by Ying Wuji and the others, heading towards the Muye Stele.

When Ying Wuji reached the exit, his heart sank.

He had seen this sealing talisman before, it was in Jiang Taiyuan's book. It belonged to the ultimate sealing technique. Unless his strength was on par with the person who drew the talisman, or higher than the person who drew the talisman, there was no possibility of breaking the formation.

Was he really going to be trapped here and be completely contaminated?

"Form the formation! The Mohist brothers have been blocking the front, all these talismans are for you."

"Bai Zhi, let's also block the front. If any blood splashes over, use the Thunder Law to attack directly!"

"Okay!"

Bai Zhi had already awakened and, under the effect of the Hua Kai Pill, had already fully recovered.

Defensive talismans were used one after another without any hesitation. The book given by Jiang Taiyuan was instantly consumed by more than half.

If he didn't know what Jiang Taiyuan was thinking, this favor would definitely fill up a whole ledger.

With so many talismans, they should be safe for a short period of time.

However, the roars of the beasts from the Grand Historian's Office made him somewhat uneasy, because as long as they couldn't leave, the blood of the Totem Beast would be a deadly weapon to their side.

Ying Wuji spat out a mouthful of saliva. The battle for the Muye Stele this time was obviously insane.

There were too many coincidences.

Originally, he thought that the overlap between the Grand Historian's Office and the Muye Stele was good news, as it would allow him to use the power of the Zhao and Chu families.

But now, it seemed that things were not going as planned.However, I didn't expect that due to the overlapping of space, the effect of the blood source gu arranged for Nangong Ling was fully activated. The person who really stepped on dog poop was Nangong Ling.

The strength of the Red Dust far exceeded his expectations.

Now the Ji Clan Alliance is facing off against the Red Dust. The former should have the advantage in terms of strength, but it is unknown what the final result will be.

"Wuji, it's all my fault for not recognizing Li Caitan!"

Wu Dan's face was heavy. "If I had recognized her and informed you in advance to disable her as soon as possible, we wouldn't be in such a passive situation now!"

"She seems to be a friend, not an enemy!"

Ying Wuji shook his head with a strange expression. He felt that Li Caitan was a spy who had been turned.

But he wasn't sure.

He looked again.

Wu Dan was confused. "Huh?"

Ying Wuji pulled him aside and handed him a jade stone. "She gave me this. It can forcefully break through any space, but it can only take one person..."

Wu Dan was startled and quickly threw the jade stone back. "No, no, I can't take it!"

Ying Wuji threw it back again. "What I mean is, I am the overall commander of the Zhao Clan and the Mohist Guild this time. The Mohist brothers are even willing to sacrifice their lives for me. Even if I'm afraid of death, I have to advance and retreat with everyone. If I suddenly become cowardly and run away by myself, wouldn't it ruin my reputation for a lifetime? I'm not giving it to you to use, I'm giving it to you to keep it safe and prevent me from using it."

Only then did Wu Dan smile and put it away. "That's true brotherhood. A real man should live and die together."

Ying Wuji: "..."

My foolish brother!

...

In front of the Mu Ye Monument.

Li Caitan stared at Jiang Taiyuan with hatred, trembling all over. The injuries that had just been calmed down showed signs of losing control.

Jiang Taiyuan smiled and said, "Caitan, long time no see!"

In their conversation, they seemed like ordinary old friends.

"Heh..."

Li Caitan sneered, but did not immediately make a move.

The situation was unclear now, and acting rashly would only ruin the years of endurance.

Nangong Yu glanced at the disciples of the Wujiao Sect and understood what it meant when he saw their blood boiling. He smiled and clasped his hands. "I didn't expect Senior Red Dust to become stronger and braver after repeated defeats. I truly admire you!"

Red Dust sneered coldly, "Since you admire me so much, why not let me have this Mu Ye Monument?"

"Why rush, Senior?"

Nangong Yu smiled and pointed to the people waiting in formation in the distance. "There are three forces here now, and our two sides have a deep connection. Instead of fighting each other to the death, why not eliminate the third party first? What do you think?"

"Oh?"

Red Dust became interested. "How do we eliminate them?"

"Did you hear that beast roar?"

Nangong Yu smiled brightly. "It's the totem beast left by the Qianrong Barbarians. There are gu worms in its blood that can make all descendants of Zhuan Xu lose their combat power. We just need to work together to kill this totem beast and sprinkle its blood on the ground. They won't dare to approach."

Before his words fell, a mournful roar came from the distance.

A three-zhang tall blood-colored giant wolf rushed out of the main hall of the Grand Historian's residence and charged towards the Mu Ye Monument.

A gust of wind swept through the crowd.

They saw the totem beast crouching on the Mu Ye Monument, gnawing at it.

This divine object containing the rules of bloodlines had an irresistible magic power over demonic beasts.

Unfortunately, the stone monument was extremely hard, and it could only bite out cracks and watch them heal.

But even so, the scattered energy in the air intoxicated it.

"What do you think?"

Nangong Yu smiled. "With the Mu Ye Monument, we can still do it together!"

Red Dust looked up and glanced at the totem beast, then suddenly laughed. "But I don't want to share with you!"

Nangong Yu frowned. "What do you mean?"

A quick look at bit.ly/3iBfjkV will leave you more fulfilled.

Red Dust sneered. "I was still wondering how to deal with you, but I didn't expect you to directly send a fierce beast that has been trapped for thousands of years and completely lost its sanity. How should I thank you?"

An evil smile appeared on his face.

And the sound of the totem beast gnawing on the Mu Ye Monument stopped abruptly.

Its blood-red wolf eyes coldly swept across the crowd.

"Uh-oh!"

Nangong Yu's heart sank. He had only thought about disabling the Zhao and Mi families, but he had forgotten... the person in front of him was Red Dust.

He had long heard of Red Dust's notorious reputation.

If it was just dealing with the people in front of him, it might still be feasible.

But adding a fierce beast in the Martial Realm...

He panicked a bit. "Red, Red Dust! You have received our favor. Do you know the consequences of offending us?"

"Consequences?"

Red Dust sneered. "What other consequences can there be? It's just monopolizing the Mu Ye Monument!"

"Roar..."With a sharp beast roar, the totem beast charged directly towards the Ji Clan Alliance.

The Ji Clan members were shocked and immediately scattered to escape.

Hongchen had no intention of holding back and immediately controlled over fifty bodies, coordinating with the totem beast to attack the isolated individuals.

Controlling a totem beast at the Soldier Realm was originally difficult for him, but after being imprisoned for a thousand years, it had already lost its consciousness.

Under the control of this powerful Enlightened God Realm expert, it could even exert twelve times its strength.

"Hmph..."

Hongchen was almost laughing to death. His luck was truly too good this time. If it weren't for the overlapping of two places, the Zhao and Mi families would not have been destroyed, and Nangong Yu would not have released the totem beast.

It was really heaven's favor towards our sect!

He looked at Li Caitan and asked, "How are your injuries?"

"It's nothing!"

"You're just too careless."

"It's Ying Wuji's fault for being too mysterious!"

"Alright!"

He didn't want to argue with Li Caitan, he just smiled and said, "I'll help you kill Jiang Taiyuan later!"

Li Caitan tightly clenched his hands and his voice trembled slightly with excitement, "Thank you!"

In front of the Muye Stele.

Ghostly cries and wolf howls.

With the totem beast at the Soldier Realm and Hongchen at the Enlightened God Realm, no matter how many people the Ji Clan Alliance had, they were no match at all.

Those who were killed cried and begged for mercy, abandoning their armor and weapons.

In the blink of an eye, almost half of the people were dead, and the remaining ones were all injured.

Nangong Yu was filled with hatred, his voice filled with despair, "Retreat! Retreat to the Grand Historian's Residence!"

The Ji Clan Alliance had long been in a sorry state and quickly retreated towards the Grand Historian's Residence.

Hongchen frowned slightly but had no intention of pursuing them.

Just by looking at this totem beast, he knew that the Nangong Family must have already made arrangements at the Grand Historian's Residence. After all, thousands of years ago, the Zhou Royal Family could locate the position of the Grand Historian's Residence. If he were to chase after them recklessly, he would definitely suffer.

However...

I can't leave behind the main force.

But leaving behind one person is completely fine.

The Wolf King instantly turned into a blur and directly blocked the path of a group of people.

His figure flashed and rushed into the crowd, grabbing the lightly injured Jiang Taiyuan.

Jiang Taiyuan seemed a little panicked as he shouted into the distance, "Young Marquis, Young Marquis, save me!"

"Traitor, go to hell by yourself!"

Nangong Yu didn't even turn back, quickly leading his men into the Grand Historian's Residence.

Hongchen made a cut on the totem beast's body, and the crimson blood flowed down, causing the totem beast to leave. It circled around the Muye Stele, sprinkling blood to prevent any surprise attacks from the Zhao and Mi families.

Then, he looked at Jiang Taiyuan and said, "So you're the ungrateful person who harmed Caitan in the past. You don't look that great either!"

"Haha!"

Jiang Taiyuan smiled awkwardly, "It's mainly my inner beauty, and I was quite handsome when I was young. Isn't that right, Caitan?"

"Heh..."

Li Caitan sneered, "I don't remember, but I can send you down first and see if you're still handsome after eighteen years."

As he spoke, he lifted his long sword and slowly walked towards Jiang Taiyuan.

"Caitan!"

"Don't!"

"Back then, I had my reasons."

"For so many years, the thing I wanted to do the most was to clear up the misunderstanding with you."

"You..."

Jiang Taiyuan's voice was urgent, and it seemed to be filled with guilty affection.

However, Li Caitan was unmoved. Memories from many years ago flashed through her mind.

Although it seemed beautiful for a while.

But upon reflection, the more beautiful it was, the more she felt like a joke.

So, she only had hatred.

There was no way she would waver because of any sweet words.

Any hesitation would be an insult and mockery to herself over the years.

Just as the two were within arm's reach of each other.

"Sigh!"

The warmth and urgency on Jiang Taiyuan's face disappeared in an instant, and he returned to his smiling appearance, "It seems like you still don't plan on letting me go! Let's be honest, I'm a member of the Danqing Sect!"

"What!"

Li Caitan's pupils suddenly contracted.

The tip of the sword paused for a moment before speeding up again.

Kill!

He must be killed as soon as possible!

He couldn't wait for Hongchen to react.

But just as the tip of the sword was about to pierce Jiang Taiyuan's neck, two fingers clamped the blade.

Li Caitan was furious, "Hongchen! You promised me that you would kill him!"

Hongchen's tone was cold, "He is a member of the Danqing Sect and the leader of this mission. According to the teachings of our sect, we cannot kill him before this mission is over!"

Li Caitan said, "You..."

Hongchen said in a deep voice, "After this mission, I will help you find an opportunity!"Li Caitan sneered, "After this mission, he will become the favorite of the Sect Master. Do you dare to kill him? Get out of my way!"

Hongchen became angry, "You don't even listen to me now?"

"Listen to you!"

Li Caitan laughed bitterly, "Why should I listen to you? I have endured for so many years, served you for so long, all for the sake of killing this beast. If you are willing to help me, I will do anything for you! If you don't help me, what use do I have for you? Get lost!"

She no longer wasted words, and her energy surged throughout her body.

Following the sword, she charged straight towards Jiang Taiyuan's throat.

Although Hongchen was strong, her energy had also reached a new level, and she might not be an opponent that could be easily ignored.

At this moment, she only had one thought.

That was to kill Jiang Taiyuan.

Even if it meant sacrificing her life.

But Hongchen clearly had no intention of fulfilling her wish. With a thought, all her bodies rushed over, forcibly pushing Li Caitan into the encirclement.

Hongchen said coldly, "You really dare to attack me!"

"Attack? I already have the intention to kill you!"

Li Caitan's laughter was filled with bitterness. She believed that Hongchen wanted to help her, after all, her energy was about to reach the Heavenly Stage, and no one could easily ignore that.

But she knew that this might be her only chance in her life.

If she missed this opportunity, Jiang Taiyuan would soar to great heights, and she would never be able to kill him with her own strength alone.

Her Kun Cheng body and her energy had been pushed to the extreme.

With the sharp sword energy, she had become a killing machine.

Blood splattered, and the encirclement formed by Hongchen's clones seemed to have a tendency to collapse.

However, Jiang Taiyuan watched as if it were a show, smiling as he looked at Hongchen, "Lady Hongchen! It seems like your subordinate doesn't listen to you. She actually turned around and attacked you with the energy you cultivated for her! How about... you show some tough love and kill her!"

Hongchen frowned, "Shut up!"

Jiang Taiyuan lost interest, whistled, and stopped talking.

Looking at Li Caitan who was desperately trying to break free, his face was smiling, but his cold eyes showed no trace of amusement.

"Caitan, do you really not listen to me?"

"Unless you kill Jiang Taiyuan!"

"Sigh!"

Hongchen sighed and immediately turned into a blur, rushing forward.

Only a "crack" sound was heard.

Li Caitan's right arm holding the sword was dislocated, and the long sword fell to the ground.

"When facing a group attack, the most important thing is to not panic! You can't even detect my attack. Have you forgotten everything I taught you before?"

"You scum, stop lecturing me!"

"Smack!"

A slap landed on Li Caitan's face.

She was sent flying, her left cheek swelling up.

In the next moment, several swords were placed on her neck.

Hongchen crouched down, coldly looking at her, "I am truly disappointed in you!"

"You are not worthy!"

"Without me, where would you be today?"

"I have served you all these years, all for the sake of killing Jiang Taiyuan, you stupid dog!"

"Smack!"

Another slap landed.

Hongchen's eyes turned red, "For so many years, I have spent so many resources to cultivate you! In the end, all I get is a 'you are not worthy'. Li Caitan, you are truly an ungrateful dog!"

"Hahaha!"

Li Caitan's laughter was filled with madness, "Hongchen! What do you think you are? Do you really think that besides helping me kill Jiang Taiyuan, you have any other value?

If you help me kill him, whether you consider yourself my teacher or benefactor, I will follow you.

But when you don't help me, what are you?

Do you really think that our sect is a great organization?

In the Hundred Schools of divination, you have the worst results, even worse than those mediocre scholars.

You are nothing but a lowly crawling creature, who knows nothing but self-pity. How can you call yourself the savior of the world?"

Finally.

A cold and silent expression appeared on Hongchen's face, a mix of anger and embarrassment.

This sentence made him feel like he was stripped naked and thrown on the street.

His rough face turned red.

"Smack!"

Another slap landed.

"You scum!"

"Who allowed you to speak to me like that!"

"You ungrateful dog!"

"Spit!"

"Only worthy of being played to death, rotting on the street!"

"I am the number one in our sect!"

"Can a revenge-driven dog like you understand that?"

Hongchen's eyes turned red, and every time he spoke, a slap would follow.

Li Caitan could only groan in pain.But there was no plea for mercy.

He was knocked unconscious like this.

"Huff, huff!"

Red Dust gasped for breath and took a long time to calm down.

He looked at Jiang Taiyuan indifferently, "Tell me, how can I remove the Muye Stele?"

Jiang Taiyuan smiled ambiguously, "Lord Red Dust, don't you really consider killing this scum?"

"Jiang Taiyuan!"

Red Dust's gaze was sharp, "Whether I kill my people or not, you have no right to say a word. If it weren't for the mission, do you think you deserve to talk to me? Hurry up, if the mission is delayed, don't blame me for being impolite to you!"

"Alright, alright!"

Jiang Taiyuan turned around with a smile. He didn't have much hope for Red Dust to kill Li Caitan.

After all, who would kill their own people because of an outsider?

He was already satisfied to see Li Caitan in such a miserable state.

In order to see this scene, he even deliberately changed the way of communication and used the wooden tablet communication method that he was least accustomed to.

The communication method of the Lao Dan lineage was really slow!

He made a gesture of invitation, "Let's go, I will take Lord Red Dust to see Muye... Oh my god! Han Juan, you old sixth!"

Before the exclamation could land, a bright sword light flashed across the sky.

The sharp sword energy seemed to cut through the entire tomb.

Han Juan floated in the air, still wearing his loose Daoist robe, but his whole person's temperament became like the blade in his hand.

Focused!

Sharp!

As if nothing in the world mattered to him.

And his target was the Muye Stele that everyone was fighting for.

"Clang!"

"Boom!"

The sword and the stone clashed.

The yellow stone shell on the Muye Stele cracked and revealed its reddish-brown true form.

But this sword had already injured the origin of the Muye Stele.

The blood color on the stele instantly dimmed by two or three tenths.

A huge blood crystal fell to the ground as he shaved it off.

"Han Juan, have you gone mad!"

Jiang Taiyuan's eyes were about to split.

Han Juan's face was pale, bloodstains at the corners of his mouth, obviously suffering from a heavy backlash.

But he showed no intention of stopping at all, "These rotten old rules should disappear!"

"Clang!"

Another sword strike.

Another piece of blood crystal was cut off.

The true form of the stone stele dimmed a bit more, and the surging blood energy inside it was also rapidly dissipating.

"Huff!"

"It's done!"

Han Juan exhaled, unable to withstand the dizziness caused by the backlash, closed his eyes, and fell from the sky.

Jiang Taiyuan: "..."

Red Dust: "..."

Both of them were dumbfounded.

The Muye Stele, which had caused everyone to scheme and fight, and had cost so much blood, was actually destroyed by this Daoist with just two strikes?

What should they do now?

Before they could react, they saw figures quickly rushing towards Han Juan and protecting him.

At the same time, the laws of thunder rolled and bombarded Red Dust's encirclement.

Taking advantage of their distraction, Li Caitan was quickly rescued.

"Caitan!"

"Li Caitan!"

"Miss Caitan!"

"Are you alright!"

Wu Dan panicked, checked her breath, and breathed a sigh of relief. He trembled as he fed her medicine.

Facing the murderous Red Dust's clones, he showed no fear and firmly protected Li Caitan behind him.

Red Dust's gaze turned sinister, "Put down my person!"

"I'll put your mother down!"

Wu Dan cursed loudly, "You don't protect your own people, what right do you have to act all high and mighty? Calling her a bitch, you're the true despicable dog! Damn it!"

Red Dust stared at him fiercely but made no move.

His clone had just been disabled by Li Caitan, and even the totem beast suddenly went out of control for some reason.

If it was just dealing with these Mohists, he could barely win.

But on the side, there was the Ji Alliance waiting for an opportunity.

Although the Muye Stele was greatly damaged, it was not completely destroyed. He couldn't act rashly.

But his person was taken away.

And the Muye Stele was destroyed.

Under the double blow, he was trembling with anger.

Ying Wuji raised his middle finger at him, "I've taken the person, do whatever you want. Lao Zhai, Dan, Bai Zhi, let's go... Oh my god! Where's my Bai Zhi?"

He was stunned for a moment.

He quickly looked around.

He saw a person and a wolf each holding a large piece of blood crystal and devouring it greedily.

They were gobbling it up.

As if their consciousness had been consumed by gluttony.

The originally hard blood crystal melted like ice cream in front of Bai Zhi, and disappeared into her stomach with a gulp.

Even though the blood crystals were larger than her size, her belly didn't bulge at all.

Wait!

Is this the focus of attention?My Bai Zhi!

Can that thing be eaten?

In such a daze for a moment.

Bai Zhi had already finished eating, burping while swaying, walking over like she was drunk, and mumbling non-stop.

"Eat!"

"Full!"

"Burp!"

A moment later, she walked in front of Ying Wuji, her head tilted, and she fell into his arms.

Ying Wuji: "..."

He was somewhat confused, having no idea what had just happened.

Looking down at Bai Zhi, he only felt her pretty face was flushed, and her whole body was burning hot.

Her body was bloated, as if she had eaten several hundred tons of papaya overnight.

What's going on?

Wait!

He suddenly felt that he seemed to have touched something fluffy.

Looking down.

Damn!

A tail!
