Lv Xianming was furious, "I am a disciple personally trained by one of the three village chiefs of the Miao Border in Guizhou. My grandmaster is known by the dharma name Huo Luqi, my second master by Huo Wuliang, and my third master by Huo Xiuluo! My great-grandmaster is none other than Grandmaster Ha Ha. And who might you be, little girl, to speak such bold words in front of me?"

Han'er sneered, "You've mentioned so many names—it's as if you're rattling off characters from a book of strange tales. Could it be that you picked these names to puff yourself up?"

Lv Xianming saw that she stood gracefully and possessed an exceptional air about her, as if she were a celestial being beyond the mortal world, and he thought she must be a disciple of some famous sect. He didn't strike her at first, but upon hearing that she didn't even know who Grandmaster Ha Ha was, he immediately felt relieved, "So, you are just a wild fox practicing as a loose cultivator! Today, you'll realize just how formidable your Daoist Master Lv is!" With that, he unleashed the Fiery Fire Flying Sword.

This man, moved by lustful thoughts, intended to capture Han'er with his spells and force her to become his wife.

Han'er had kept Pu He as her pet for many years, and she had learned a great deal from him. After observing those who entered the Yellow Mountain, and verifying what Pu He had told her, she was no longer as naive about the workings of the world as she had been when she first left the valley. Having seen plenty of "wild mandarin ducks," she understood what Lv Xianming had meant and knew it was a profound insult. She immediately released her flying sword to engage in battle.

The two of them fought with swords, battling from the ground to the skies. When Han'er was very young, her mother had undergone Soldier Disintegration and reincarnated. Later, her father, Zhuge Jingwo, not having received permission from his masters, could not teach her the swordsmanship of the Emei Sect, so he taught her a different set of sword techniques instead. Meanwhile, Lv Xianming had been personally instructed by the Fiery Fire Ancestor in his early years and later learned from the three disciples of the village, mastering the sword to an extremely high level. Han'er could not defeat him in battle, so she resorted to using her White Brow Needles.

These needles had been refined by Lady Bao Xiang from her own fox's eyebrows; even Shi Feiyang had once been hit by them. The twin needles launched simultaneously, transforming into two inconspicuous white lines that flew out. One struck Lv Xianming's arm and the other his thigh.

At first, Lv Xianming didn't take them seriously, but soon he felt the needles burrowing into his flesh heading straight for his blood vessels and pressing towards his heart. Unable to suppress their advance in a moment, he ceased fighting and fled, cursing as he wrapped himself in a flame and flew back to Lv Village.

Once home, recognizing the needles as the White Brow Needles of Lady Bao Xiang, he felt a chill in his heart. He furiously circulated his effort to resist the needles, managing only to slow their progress; he could neither expel them nor temporarily block them in his body!

Frightened to his very core, Lv Xianming hurriedly left Lv Village and headed to the Miao Border to find his three masters. Because of the needles lodged in his body, he dared not fly on his sword. Instead, he used a magical treasure and mounted a faint orb of light, which carried him at a slow pace tens of feet above the ground.

Not long after departing, he encountered a duel between a member of the Emei Sect, Tong Yuanqi, and Xu Jiu from the Pima Sect. As a disciple of Hua Mountain, he didn't need to think twice; he released a Fire Gourd that unleashed many flaming bats, chasing Tong Yuanqi away.

However, Xu Jiu was not pleased. She had originally wanted to capture Tong Yuanqi alive to refine him into a Flying Zombie. Since the battle at the Star Constellations Sea, the Emei Sect had suffered severe losses. Even one of the three immortals of the East Sea, the Ascetic Monk, had been slain and forced to reincarnate. The sect had kept a low profile in recent years, with few members appearing in public, while the Pima Sect had grown and prospered. Therefore, Xu Jiu did not fear the Emei Sect—though it mainly stemmed from the fact that the Taiyin Hunyuan Ancestor had refined the Heavenly Demon Immortal Slaying Sword, making the Emei Sect too occupied with this powerful enemy to deal with her.

Her gaze fixated on Lv Xianming, intending to use him for corpse refining; hearing that he had been struck by the Heavenly Fox's White Brow Needles, she said, "Fellow Daoist, why go to such lengths for help? The journey from here to Miao Border is not short, and since you cannot control your sword, by the time you reach there, the White Brow Needles will have pierced your heart.

Our sect has a technique that can toughen the muscles and bones of the entire body, making them as hard as iron and unbreakable by wind or thunder—comparable to the Western Heaven Buddha's Purple Gold Body. Once you've mastered this technique, those White Brow Needles will surely not harm you. And since I also hold a grudge against the Heavenly Fox, once you perfect the technique, we can join forces to slay that fox and avenge our grievances!"

Thus, with a thousand thanks, Lv Xianming followed her into the village.

In Chenwei Village, there was an expelled disciple from the Emei Sect named Luo Jiu, who was in fact the disciple of Tong Yuanqi. After practicing on the mountain for several years, Tong Yuanqi discovered that Luo Jiu's intentions were malicious and expelled him down the mountain. It was also heard that he committed reckless murders, so this time Tong Yuanqi had specifically come to clean up the mess.

Previously, Luo Jiu was about to be beheaded by Tong Yuanqi's Flying Sword when he encountered Xiang Xiangying entering the village. At first glance, he took a fancy to Tong Yuanqi's body, feigned a conversation, and secretly cast an Evil Skill, nearly bringing Tong Yuanqi down.

Tong Yuanqi, affected by the Evil Magic and relying on his profound effort, forcefully fled and found a place to practice for several days, dispelling the evil spells. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He went to a friend to borrow a Magical Treasure, and today he came back seeking revenge. He broke through several of her spells, and just as the situation was at a stalemate, Lv Xianming drove Tong Yuanqi away.

Nowadays, Chenwei Village worshipped Xiang Xiangying as a Fairy. Xiangying first picked a geomantically blessed spot outside the village and ordered people to dig three big pits. She had Lv Xianming jump into the central pit, while the other two were filled with a sheep and a bull, respectively, before being backfilled to create a huge mound, leaving only Lv Xianming's head exposed. She then taught him to draw the Earth Evil energy to nourish and refine his body while also using the moonlight for refining his soul.

The Daoist Technique included the Taiyin Refining Great Technique, and what she was teaching him was a variant of it.

Xiangying also performed rituals around him every day and fed him the Three Corpses Refining Body Pill.

After practicing for a few days, Lv Xianming indeed managed to stop the Bai Mei Needle between his flesh and bones, preventing it from moving towards his vital points. He crawled out of the ground, ready to go back and seek revenge.

This time, Xiangying accompanied him to Dai Family Field to duel with Han'er again. Han'er launched the Bai Mei Needle once more, but this time Lv Xianming was prepared and used the Fire Gourd to capture the needle. Han'er then released the Rainbow Chain.

The Rainbow Chain was the Treasure of the Cave of Lady Bao Xiang. Lv Xianming couldn't withstand it. Xiangying, from the shadows, cast another Evil Skill and knocked Han'er down.

Lv Xianming captured Han'er and released his Flying Sword to slay those in the village who didn't submit to his authority. Li Zhenchuan and Bai Qi were originally doomed, but Xiangying determined that both had the potential to become refined corpses. Using a vine staff, she intercepted Lv Xianming's Flying Sword and released two serpent-like black smoke from her sleeves to subdue both men.

The remaining Dai Hengyu, already with family and not a virgin male, did not catch Xiangying's interest, so she let Lv Xianming cut off one of his arms.

From a distance, Xu Chao spotted this and ran to inform Shi Feiyang, relaying the general situation.

Shi Feiyang released his Divine Sense to sense the surroundings and briefly calculated the fates of those who had been kidnapped. He calmly said, "They have already left, and there's no need to hurry. Let's first reattach Hengyu's arm."

He handed over Spiritual Glue to Xu Chao to retrieve Dai Hengyu's severed arm, clean it, apply the Spiritual Medicine, and within moments, it was reunited with his body.

Dai Xiangying knelt on the ground, crying, and begged him to go save her master and big brother Bai.

Shi Feiyang said, "As for saving people, I won't go. I'm in the middle of a Cultivation Technique that can't be interrupted for too long. Let this sword go instead!"
