In an instant, it seemed as though the sky had come crashing down. Yang Xingyuan felt his blood instantly freeze in his veins. He had not managed to respond when a long slender arm took hold of his collar.

“Medical Sect members! Who gave you the authority to manage the affairs of Intentionless City?” Mo Wen asked coldly. As expected, something had happened to the Intentionless Sect. Otherwise, how could a member of the Medical Sect appear on the city walls of Intentionless City?

“I… I…” Yang Xingyuan’s face was pale. He was sweating coldly and was unable to speak. This youth’s aura was very strong. He was practically a demon, able to make others tremble in fear from the very depths of their souls. Even with Yang Xingyuan’s Golden Elixir Realm cultivation, he could not defend against such horror.

“Humph!” Mo Wen snorted and the surrounding space twisted. The next moment, all the Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioners behind Yang Xingyuan exploded like bombs. They exploded into blood mist one after another, all of them dying instantly.

“If you still don’t want to talk, you can join them.” Mo Wen had already lost patience.

Yang Xingyuan drew a cold breath. His face became even paler. Was this youth even a human? He was practically a demon, a ruthless demon.

“I… I… This does not concern our Medical Sect. They were the orders of the Five Beasts Sect and the Purple Qi Pavilion. We were just following orders.” Yang Xingyuan clearly realized that something huge was about to unfold. This youth had come for the Intentionless Sect. Also, he was incredibly strong. Even the sect leader of the Medical Sect was far inferior to him.

“I’ve already said I do not wish to hear your nonsense.” Mo Wen’s gaze swept over Yang Xingyuan. Then, he released Yang Xingyuan. With a flash of his golden silhouette, Mo Wen appeared on top of the city walls.

Yang Xingyuan breathed a sigh of relief. He thought that Mo Wen had let him go. Yang Xingyuan was preparing to immediately return to the sect’s assembly point and report the matter to the sect leader. But the next moment, a look of absolute terror suddenly appeared on his face. A beam of golden light shone out from his body, and then with a loud rumble, he was instantly disintegrated down to the tiniest atom.

Mo Wen stood on the city wall, sweeping a glance across the city. Aside from the two city gates being sealed, the inside of the city seemed completely in order. Ancient martial art practitioners and citizens were busy with their lives as usual.

“It seems that I have brought trouble upon the Intentionless Sect.” Mo Wen sighed softly. He had not anticipated that such a thing would occur.

On the city walls, the silhouettes of ancient martial art practitioners appeared one after another. These ancient martial art practitioners slowly surrounded Mo Wen, but they did not dare approach him. Their eyes were filled with caution.

“If the Intentionless Sect is destroyed, all the factions that took part shall join them.” Mo Wen looked at the ancient martial art practitioners who surrounded him and discovered that not one of them was dressed in the attire of the Intentionless Sect. His expression became uglier. He now feared that the Intentionless Sect had been completely wiped out and that the entire sect had been massacred from top to bottom.

A beam of black light shone from his body. Suddenly, a Cold Qi enveloped the heavens and the earth. The top of the entire city wall was covered in a layer of black ice crystals which continuously spread out. All the ancient martial art practitioners on the city walls were turned into human-shaped ice sculptures. Be they of the Golden Elixir Realm or Embryonic Breathing Realm, they were instantly frozen.

After absorbing the Dark Soul Pearl, his Cold Qi had reached an incredible realm, truly able to freeze the heavens and the earth and cause it to snow in a thousand-mile radius. Not even Lan Zhongzhi, a Martial Arts Grandmaster that practiced cold attribute martial arts techniques, would be able to compare with Mo Wen, let alone a third realm Martial Arts Grandmaster cold attribute ancient martial art practitioner.

The Cold Qi swept past and cold winds blew. The entirety of Intentionless City was instantly chilled as though it had instantly changed from the searing heat of June to the icy cold of the winter months. Heavy snow descended from the sky. However, the snow was not pure white, but a pure, deep black.

What was happening on the city walls alarmed the entire city. Countless human ancient martial art practitioners flew up onto their roofs and looked towards the city walls. The change in the weather had already drawn the attention of everyone. This cruel cold was obviously not natural. Even ancient martial art practitioners with slightly lower cultivation could not stand it, let alone normal humans

“Good heavens, what has happened? It is so cold.”

“What’s going on? I’m about to freeze to death. I can’t take it! I need to rush back home immediately. My wife is only at the Regulated Breathing Realm. She certainly cannot withstand this sort of Cold Qi.”

“Such frightening Cold Qi. This is no ordinary phenomenon. Something big must have happened.”

Pandemonium spread throughout Intentionless City. There was unrest in the local areas. Some ancient martial art practitioners with higher cultivation gathered at the northern city gate. Ancient martial art practitioners without high cultivation kept their distance. The closer one was to the northern city gate, the colder the weather was.

Mo Wen placed his arms behind his back as he quietly stood on the city wall. Beams of Cold Qi were emanating from his body. Within a radius of one kilometer of him, everything was completely frozen with black ice crystals. The guards on the city wall had already fled in panic. No one dared to approach the city walls.

Mo Wen was waiting for the steward of the Intentionless City to appear.

“Young master Mo.” From an old building far away, a silhouette suddenly flew out. Once the silhouette saw Mo Wen, it immediately cried out and flew towards the city walls. The person’s expression was one of deep anxiety.

“Huh?” Mo Wen turned to look. The person was dressed in grey robes which enveloped his entire body. His face was covered, and Mo Wen could not tell who it was. However, this person clearly recognized him.

The person’s cultivation was not low; it was at the pinnacle of the Embryonic Breathing Realm. In a short while, he had flown to the city walls. However, when he was a hundred meters away from the city walls, his body suddenly trembled, and he was frozen to the spot in an instant. A layer of black ice crystals covered his body.

Within a radius of a hundred meters of Mo Wen, it was too cold. Even with this cultivation, this person could not withstand it. He suspected that he would be completely frozen to death if he got any closer to Mo Wen.

“Young master Mo, I am Zou Guangbo. We have met before,” Zou Guangbo shouted hurriedly. His eyes were filled with astonished pleading as he looked at Mo Wen. It was terrifying. Since when had young master Mo become powerful to this extent? It was beyond Zou Guangbo’s imagination.

“So, it was you.” A light flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes. With a wave of his hand, the Cold Qi around Zou Guangbo’s body immediately disappeared. A pulling force enveloped his body, instantly dragging him to Mo Wen’s side.

Mo Wen indeed recognized Zou Guangbo. He was the branch leader of the Intentionless Sect that was in charge of external affairs. When Mo Wen first came to the Intentionless Sect, he had encountered him together with Chen Zi. From his voice, it did seem to be Zou Guangbo. However, his current situation didn’t seem to be healthy. Otherwise, he wouldn’t need to sneak around.

“Young master Mo, I never thought that I would see you again. However, you shouldn’t have come.” Zou Guangbo laughed bitterly. He slowly removed the scarf that covered his face and revealed the features of a middle-aged man. However, they were not the features of Zou Guangbo that Mo Wen recognized. But after Zou Guangbo wiped his face for a while, the familiar face could finally be seen.

“Disguise technique.” Mo Wen looked at Zou Guangbo in astonishment. He had never thought that Zou Guangbo would be proficient in an eccentric technique such as the disguise technique.

“Young master Mo, I have remained hidden in the city for five days. I am glad to see you again, but you really should not have come.” Zou Guangbo sighed softly. His disguise technique had allowed him to evade the worst, and he had not been captured. However, he was still trapped within Intentionless City, forced into hiding and living in fear every day. With his position in the Intentionless Sect, those people would certainly not let him go. Sooner or later, they would find him. Hence, when he saw Mo Wen, he simply stopped hiding. After all, the way he was living now was not necessarily better than dying.

“Why shouldn’t I have come?” Mo Wen asked plainly.

“You don’t know?” Zou Guangbo looked at Mo Wen with a strange gaze. Everyone in the entire Green Ancient Mystery Dimension most likely already knew about this matter. How could Mo Wen possibly not know? Even if he did not know, he would surely have heard about it on the way back to Intentionless City?

“Tell me.” After Mo Wen had left the Fighting Spirit Tower, he had rushed back to Intentionless City as fast as he could. Along the way, there had been no time at all to gather information. He was not very clear on what had happened in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. However, he had guessed correctly that something must have happened to the Intentionless Sect.

“Young master Mo, since you have arrived, you most likely will not be able to leave. All the factions in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension want to capture you,” Zou Guangbo said with a bitter laugh. He had not expected that Mo Wen would not know anything.

“The Purple Qi Pavilion, together with the Five Beasts Sect, the Medical Sect, the Weapon Forging Sect, the Xingyi Sect, and the other large sects announced a bounty to all the other sects in the entire Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. Right now, all the ancient martial art practitioners in the entire Green Ancient Mystery Dimension are searching for your whereabouts.”

Zou Guangbo looked helplessly at Mo Wen. He obviously did not know that he had caused so much trouble. Although Zou Guangbo did not know why the large sects were so against Mo Wen, he knew that it was certainly not something trivial.

“So Intentionless Sect has become involved?” Mo Wen said expressionlessly.

Zou Guangbo looked at Mo Wen. He opened his mouth to say something, but his lips merely moved and no words came out. Truthfully, because Mo Wen had caused the Intentionless Sect to face annihilation, the disciples of the Intentionless Sect bore some level of grudge against him. But before this, if it wasn’t for Mo Wen, the Intentionless Sect would most likely have long been destroyed. Hence, Mo Wen did not owe the Intentionless Sect anything. If he told Mo Wen how he truly felt, Mo Wen would certainly feel that Zou Guangbo was complaining about him, hence he simply said nothing.

“How is the Intentionless Sect now?” Mo Wen sighed softly.

“From top to bottom, aside from a few disciples, almost every member of the Intentionless Sect has been captured by the few large factions,” Zou Guangbo said.

“They have just been captured?” There was a twinkle in Mo Wen’s eyes.

“Right now, many Intentionless Sect disciples are locked up in various dungeons. The goal of the large factions is to find you. They have already given the order that if you do not appear, they will kill a group of people every day until all are dead. They have already killed hundreds. However, to force you to show yourself, they have yet to kill the upper echelons of the Intentionless Sect. They started with the lowest-ranked disciples. Right now, the sect leader and the various sect elders are still alive.”

“Who’s there? Who dares to act wildly in Intentionless City?”

Zou Guangbo had not finished speaking when a beam of white light flew from afar. The silhouette of a person shot over like a bolt of lightning.

“So, it is an old acquaintance.” Mo Wen coldly laughed. From the voice, he already knew who the person was.
