Upon seeing the young lad, Jun Moxiao, blushing deeply, Mu Qing gave him a faint smile and gracefully stood up.

Female cultivators usually possessed techniques to maintain their youthful appearance, allowing them to keep a look they favored. She was considerably older than Jun Moxiao, by an amount he couldn't possibly guess.

Therefore, she didn't lower herself to the level of a young boy like Jun Moxiao.

"Isn't that the Saintess from the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird? Why is she…"

Lei Qinian was wide-eyed and tongue-tied with shock.

Some of his memories had been erased by Ye Yun, so he wasn't very clear about what had happened at the Wu Kun Mountain Black Market.

With all eyes on him, Lei Qinian could only conceal his doubts deep inside.

However, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The Saintess from the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird had come here. With her transcendent status and strength, she would surely be able to resolve the dangerous predicament he and Jun Moxiao were in.

The Xuanyang Sect disciples, who had been sent sprawling by the fierce wind, struggled back to their feet.

Anger was evident on their faces as they stared at the beautiful, black-clad young woman before them.

"It's the Saintess from the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird."

One of the leading youths in red grimaced as soon as he recognized Mu Qing.

The Saintess from the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird, a powerful cultivator at Destiny Realm Level 7, was far beyond what these Nirvana Realm disciples could handle. This Saintess held a transcendent position within her sect, ranking second only to the Sect Master in the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird. They, mere juniors, couldn't afford to offend such an eminent figure.

The cultivators from the various major Sects nearby watched as the Saintess of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird suddenly appeared and rescued the pair of Loose Cultivators. Puzzlement showed on each of their faces.

Previously, they had been too far away, and with the gale being so fierce, they hadn't clearly heard the conversation between Jun Moxiao and Mu Qing.

However, the crowd had witnessed the Saintess's respectful demeanor towards the black-robed youth.

For a great cultivator at Destiny Realm Level 7 to show such respect to a youth merely at the First Level Nirvana Realm was truly baffling. Could it be that this black-robed young Loose Cultivator had some extraordinary background that they had all misjudged?

The surrounding cultivators began to discuss this fervently, their curious gazes repeatedly sweeping over Jun Moxiao.

The only ones in direct confrontation with Jun Moxiao now were from the Xuanyang Sect.

However, these Xuanyang Sect disciples were all in the Nirvana Realm. Even united, they wouldn't dare make a move against the Saintess of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird.

If they did act, in the end, only these Nirvana Realm disciples from the Xuanyang Sect would suffer.

However, for this training expedition, each of the three major sects had Destiny Realm Elders leading their groups.

The Xuanyang Sect was no exception.

A ray of sword light darted over, transforming into an elder in red robes, who landed opposite Mu Qing.

"Greetings, Saintess."

The elder in red robes cupped his hands and showed considerable respect.

He was merely an Elder in Charge, his cultivation base only at Destiny Realm Level 5. His status was in no way comparable to Mu Qing's as a Saintess.

Mu Qing stood with her hands clasped behind her back, coolly observing the elder in red robes before her.

She recognized this elder in red robes; his name was Wu Qingzi, an Elder in Charge in the Xuanyang Sect.

In the Heavenly Moon Dynasty, each of the Four Great Sects had numerous Elders in Charge responsible for various affairs within the sects.

Compared to normal disciples, these Elders in Charge undoubtedly held a more prestigious position.

But when compared to her, a Saintess, they simply paled in comparison.

"May I ask the Saintess, is this young man a member of your esteemed sect?" the elder in red robes stared at Jun Moxiao, his gaze flickering, and asked in a deep voice.

"Indeed, we are from the same sect," Mu Qing narrowed her eyes slightly, her voice icy as she replied.

Although she was originally from the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird, Mu Qing was now a member of the Dragon God Sect. Not only that, even the ancestor of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird—the Xuan bird itself—was now a demon beast of the Dragon God Sect.

The elder in red robes was startled.

He truly hadn't expected this black-robed youth to actually be a disciple of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird. If that was the case, he truly had no grounds to argue with the Saintess any further.

"Let's go!" The elder in red robes turned, his face ashen. With a wave of his hand, he issued an order to the surrounding Nirvana Realm disciples.

"Elder, many of our disciples were killed by these two," a youth in red approached and said in a low voice.

"Really?" The elder in red robes' heart skipped a beat, a look of doubt in his eyes. That youth was merely at the First Level Nirvana Realm, and the young man beside him was only at the Fifth Level of the Nirvana Realm. With such cultivation bases, could they really kill Xuanyang Sect disciples?

Hearing the words of the youth in red, Lei Qinian became furious and shouted, "You Xuanyang Sect disciples are utterly shameless! You were the ones trying to kill us, but you mistakenly killed the monkeys, provoking the Great Saint's divine wrath and getting yourselves annihilated!"

"At first, wasn't it this kid who killed eight of our fellow disciples?" the youth in red turned, pointed at Jun Moxiao, and angrily retorted.

"They deserved to die!" Jun Moxiao also spoke up; he looked at the youth in red and scoffed, "He wanted to rob us of our golden Laurel fruits and, with murderous intent, they besieged us. But they were thwarted by the monkeys. If I hadn't killed them, should I have let them kill me instead? The reasoning of you Xuanyang Sect disciples is truly laughable!"

"You're spouting nonsense!" The youth in red's face flushed, and he trembled with anger.

The youth wasn't wrong. His fellow Xuanyang Sect disciples had indeed relied on their superior numbers to attack these two Loose Cultivators. However, these two Loose Cultivators were exceptionally cunning; they used medicinal pills to incite a group of monkeys. That was how his eight fellow disciples ended up surrounded and attacked by the monkeys, allowing this youth to seize an opportunity to ambush and kill them. This information, naturally, came from the rumors spread by the cultivators who were around the battle site at the time.

Mu Qing stepped forward, her eyes filled with murderous intent, and said coldly, "Senior Brother Jun, you did well killing them! If Xuanyang Sect disciples dare to provoke you, then don't spare a single one!"

Seeing the Saintess of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird suddenly erupt in anger, the Xuanyang Sect disciples immediately fell silent, thoroughly intimidated.

Even the elder in red robes, a Destiny Realm Level 5 cultivator, shivered at this moment.

If they truly provoked this Destiny Realm Saintess into action, the losses on their side would be immense.

"Saintess, please don't be angry. If the Xuanyang Sect has erred in any way, please overlook it, Saintess!" the elder in red robes quickly tried to smooth things over.

After the elder finished speaking, many cultivators around suddenly showed expressions of horror.

Because they had just heard the Saintess address the youth as "Senior Brother."

What in the world was going on? Since when did the Saintess of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird have a Senior Brother in the Nirvana Realm? And one whose standing was apparently so high! This was utterly shocking, too sensational!

After the elder in red robes finished speaking, this point also occurred to him, and he suddenly had a realization.

The Saintess of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird addressed this black-robed youth as Senior Brother. What on earth was this youth's background? He couldn't help but become deeply uneasy.

Mu Qing ignored him completely, instead looking at Jun Moxiao. She smiled gently and said in a soft voice, "Senior Brother Jun, which blind fools were they that angered you? Your Junior Sister will vent your anger for you and kill them all."

She spoke very gently.

But her gentle, breeze-like tone contained a potent killing intent!
