When his last words were heard, the person had already disappeared beyond the horizon.

The members of the Five Tigers Sect exhaled in relief. The killing machine had finally left. It had seemed likely that with the terrifying aura that he emanated, he would have killed a large number of people.

However, many people still felt strange. The mysterious person was not kind and had dealt with the Baili Sect with an iron fist. It was shocking. However, he had been merciful just then and had not killed Yuan Gang in front of everyone.

“Yuan Gang, as an elder, you committed an unjust deed and swindled a disciple. Do you admit your crime?”

Xie Rengui’s expression was cold. Although the mysterious shadow had left, he did not dare spare Yuan Gang. Not only would Yuan Gang be punished, but he would need to be severely punished.

“I admit my crime. Sect leader, please spare my life.”

Sect Younger Uncle Yuan Gang’s face was pale. He knelt down on the ground with a thud and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy. He had never thought that he would actually end up in such a predicament by swindling a mere outer-sect disciple,

“It is good that you understand the crime you have committed. You can be spared from death, but you will not escape punishment. Men, cripple Yuan Gang’s cultivation and banish him from the sect.”

Upon hearing this, Yuan Gang’s vision turned black. He nearly fainted. Such a heavy punishment rarely occurred in the sect, especially against an elder like him. But all the members of the Five Tigers Sect did not feel that it was strange; instead, they all agreed. It was because the person that Yuan Gang had offended was no ordinary person. If he was not severely punished, and they happened to cause that senior to be dissatisfied, the consequences were unthinkable.

Xie Rengui waved his hand and two elders flew out and grabbed hold of Yuan Gang. The next moment, his screams sounded in the square.

“Wan’er and Wang Qian, you both will be core members of the sect from now on. Go back later and pack your things. You will live in a small house on the east side of the valley now.”

Xie Rengui looked at Wan’er and Wang Qian kindly. Setting aside the relationship between the two of them and the mysterious senior, the sect had also managed to retain the two Dragon City Talismand and two sect elders because the two of them were present in the encounter in the forest. If the Baili Sect’s scheme that day had succeeded, the consequences would have been unthinkable. For the Five Tigers Sect, it would have been an extremely heavy blow.

“Also, you should also prepare yourself over the next few days. The Martial Arts Circle Convention will begin soon. Since you both have Dragon City Talismans, you can go with the sect’s team to Dragon City.”

Xie Rengui had understood the meaning behind the mysterious senior’s final words. When heading to Dragon City this time, the Five Tigers Sect had to safely and securely escort these two there.

The surrounding people looked at Su Wan’er and Wang Qian in admiration. Core members were a small group of people that were the sect’s priority in terms of cultivating. Their status in the sect was comparable to that of elders. There were only a handful of core members in the entire Five Tigers Sect. The two of them had not only became core members, but they had even got the house on the east side of the valley.

The east side of the valley was the most beautiful part of the entire valley. The houses there were carefully built according to the specifications of ancient palaces. There were no more than ten houses on the east side of the valley. Usually, only Five Tigers Sect sect grand elders or some important guests were qualified to stay there. Who would have thought that the sect leader would actually give Wan’er and Wang Qian a house on the east side of the valley?

However, Wan’er had that mysterious killing machine behind her. Even if the rest admired and envied her, they did not dare say anything. From now on, within the Five Tigers Sect, the person who could not be offended the most was most likely not the sect leader, but this little girl, Su Wan’er.

Su Wan’er was in a daze. Everyone, including Wang Qian, was looking at her with looks of admiration. However, she could not get her head around what exactly was going on.

…..

On a mountain peak, Mo Wen stood in the wind, his clothes fluttering. Clouds churned on the mountain peak. Below the mountain was a great stretch of flat land. One could see a great distance at a glance.

A dark shadow appeared from the clouds in a flash. The next moment, it appeared before Mo Wen. It was none other than the mysterious shadow.

Mo Wen patted the mysterious shadow on the shoulder. The shining golden light in its eyes gradually began to fade. The mysterious shadow became a beam of light and quietly went back into his medicine spiritual ring.

The mysterious shadow that had appeared in the Five Tigers Sect was not actually Mo Wen. It was instead his Black Gold Puppet. After Mo Wen managed to cultivate Deified Soul Power, he could transfer a portion of his deified soul into the Black Gold Puppet. With just his mind, he could control this puppet as though it was his own body.

This was a technique that only Primordial Soul Realm immortal cultivators could use, but he had managed to gain access to it earlier.

Mo Wen did not return to the small wooden house. He wrote Wan’er a farewell letter and then left. During this period of time, he had mostly recovered from his injuries. He was only left with the riskiest last step and did not plan to stay in the Five Tigers Sect any longer.

He planned to head to the flower valley that was like a Shangri-la where the old man Ling Feng was. That place was absolutely peaceful and he would not be disturbed there. It was the most suitable place for him.

However, before heading over to the flower valley, Mo Wen went to the Baili Sect that was three hundred kilometers away.

When Yang Gongcheng said that he had seen Martial Arts Grandmasters before and that he had people behind him, Mo Wen had realized that the Baili Sect was not as simple as it appeared on the surface. For it to be able to enter the top ten sects in the Martial Arts Circle Convention, it must have an unknown faction supporting it. Mo Wen was very clear about this point.

He had guessed that the Baili Sect had ancient martial art practitioner factions from one of the Inner worlds or maybe other places helping it.

Yang Gongcheng had died in the Five Tigers Sect and a large number of Baili Sect strong practitioners had their cultivation crippled. If he did not come forward to deal with the matter, that faction would most likely not let this go. If the Five Tigers Sect encountered such a faction, they would not be able to resist them at all.

The Baili Sect was very big, far grander than the Five Tigers Sect. As the overlord of the Taihang Mountains, their territory had a radius of five hundred kilometers. That had made it easy for Mo Wen to find the Baili Sect. He very easily found the entrance to the Baili Sect.

The news that Yang Gongcheng and the group of Baili Sect sect grand elders had died in the Five Tigers Sect had not reached here yet. The Baili Sect was as peaceful as usual. Everyone was going about their own business.

Suddenly, a mysterious shadow appeared in the Baili Sect without a sound. It left no trace of its arrival. At the same time, a beam of astonishing soul waves swept through the region. These soul waves could not be detected by ordinary ancient martial art practitioners. Only Martial Arts Grandmasters could sense them. For ancient martial art practitioners who did not have sufficient cultivation, even if the soul storm swept past them, they would not sense that anything was out of the ordinary.

Swoosh!

The soul storm had just appeared when two silhouettes flew out of the Baili Sect and headed straight for the mysterious shadow.

The mysterious shadow flashed slightly and immediately left the Baili Sect. After a while, it appeared on a mountain peak. The two silhouettes followed closely behind. Both of them reached the peak and blocked the mysterious shadow.

“Who are you? Why did you lead us out here?”

The two people that appeared on the mountain peak were quite old. Their hair was white and cold winds caused their white beards to constantly flutter. Both of them had extraordinary cultivation. They were both Martial Arts Grandmaster first realm strong practitioners. One of the elders looked seriously at the mysterious shadow as he spoke.

The terrifying soul storm was definitely something that no ordinary person could unleash. The mysterious shadow before them was most likely extremely powerful and complex. Also, they did not know what means he had used, but the two of them actually could not see the silhouette beneath the mysterious shadow clearly. No matter how they observed it, the mass of shadow was fuzzy, seemingly real and yet ethereal all at once.

“Yang Gongcheng has died in the Five Tigers Sect, along with a few Baili Sect sect grand elders,” the mysterious shadow said.

“Oh.”

Upon hearing this, strange looks flashed in the eyes of the two elders, but they did not show any drastic displays of emotion.

“Could it be that you killed Yang Gongcheng?” the other elder asked as he narrowed his eyes and looked at the mysterious shadow.

“I killed all of them. I know your goal. A dead Baili Sect sect leader will not affect you much. Mind your own business and just use the Baili Sect’s name to participate in the Martial Arts Circle Convention,” the mysterious shadow said.

“You killed the Baili Sect sect leader and even came all the way here to ask us not to seek revenge. Are you threatening us?” the elder softly snorted.

“You can treat it as a threat. If you insist on meddling in the affairs of these sects, then I will make the effort to send you to your grave as well.” The mysterious shadow still spoke indifferently, as though telling two Martial Arts Grandmasters that he was going to kill them was just an easy thing to do.

“You are arrogant! A Baili Sect sect leader is indeed not important enough to have us to avenge him. However, right now, I really want to know how capable you are. You have actually dared to come all this way to threaten the two of us.”

The white-haired elder’s expression turned cold. His body emanated a frightening aura. At the same time, a giant hand formed from snow and ice appeared in mid-air before the mysterious shadow. Then, it furiously slapped at him.

Faced with the gigantic hand of snow and ice, the mysterious shadow did not dodge or evade. He raised one arm and pointed at it. The huge hand of snow and ice shattered.

“As expected, you have some skills.”

The two white-haired elders could both tell that this mysterious shadow also had Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm cultivation. His cultivation was even a level higher than theirs.

They glanced at each other and then at the same time, two frightening Martial Arts Grandmaster auras exploded on the mountain peak. They crashed towards the mysterious shadow, one from the left and one from the right.

On the mountain peak, winds and hail began to blow. The cold winds were like sabers slicing at the mountain itself. Some rocks on the mountain cliffs were sliced straight off by the frightening cold winds. Within a radius of one kilometer, everything was covered in a layer of ice and frost.

Obviously, these two white-haired elders practiced advanced Cold Techniques. Once they attacked, the heavens and the earth froze and the land was frozen over.

However, in the wind and snow, a beam of golden light shone like the sun shining over the land.

Once the golden light appeared, the ice and frost on the mountain peak melted away as though they had encountered fire. In an instant, they disappeared into nothingness. The cold winds disappeared without a trace. The terrifying Cold Qi also completely dissipated. An astonishing heat instead appeared on the mountain peak.

The heatwave caused the two Martial Arts Grandmaster realm elders to retreat a step backward subconsciously. The rocks on the mountain peak started to melt one by one. Magma flowed and quickly formed a small pool.

“What is that?” The two elders narrowed their eyes and looked at the mass of golden light in astonishment.

In the golden light, there was a longsword. The longsword was very ancient and exquisite, but when the two of them looked at the longsword, they felt a terrifying aura that was enough to make them shiver in fear.
