In the Underground Palace, Bai Weiwei’s heart skipped a beat as she felt a strong killing aura enveloping her.

What was going on?

Who would dare to release such a strong killing aura in the sect?

She looked toward the killing aura and saw that it was from Ma Liang.

As the saying went, when enemies meet, their eyes turn red with hatred.

Ma Liang’s eyes were as red as a devil from Hell.

“Bai Weiwei! You killed my clansmen and my parents. Do you know the sect protects all its disciples and their families? You violated the sect rule by doing this!” Ma Liang shouted. He knew that he was not her match, so he could only use this method to restrain her until Elder Ma came.

Bai Weiwei narrowed her eyes. When she returned home this time, she knew that Ma Liang and Ma Wuliang had set her up. The decline in her strength was caused by them. If it were not for her master, she would have become a wastrel long ago.

This kind of hatred was irreconcilable, so she didn’t waste her time to reason with him!

She pulled out the spirit sword and shouted, “In that case, the grudge between you and me will be settled here! Let’s fight until one of us dies!”

Ma Liang was covered in sweat. He had just seen Bai Weiwei defeat Murong Lei with one sword move, so he didn’t dare to fight Bai Weiwei.

“You… you…” Ma Liang was so nervous that he was at a loss for what to do. Step by step, he retreated. Thinking quickly, he hurriedly said, “You are powerful because of the supreme-grade spirit sword given by your master. If you are really good, then have a life and death battle with me without using the spirit sword!

“It’s not a fair fight if you use the powerful spirit sword!” Ma Liang rolled his eyes and hurriedly added.

“If you’re really good, then fight me only with cultivation strength!”

When the disciples heard this, they were astonished.

They felt that there must be some old grudge between these two, otherwise, they wouldn’t propose a life-and-death battle.

It was a battle taken on the Profound Sword Sect’s fighting arena, and the two parties would go on fighting until one of them died!

If people had a life-and-death grudge, they would resolved it at the fighting arena. Such things happened rarely and the arena opened only once in a few years.

…

Those disciples who had been defeated by Bai Weiwei began to shout that their lost because of her powerful weapon.

Bai Weiwei didn’t want them to slander her master, so she said, “As you wish. I won’t use the spirit sword.”

Without waiting for an answer, Bai Weiwei moved forward and arrived in front of Ma Liang instantly.

Then, she struck straight at him with her palm.

The move wasn’t fast, but Ma Liang froze in astonishment because he found that he couldn’t move.

No matter how much spirit energy he injected into his legs, they just couldn’t move an inch.

At this moment, he realized how big the difference between his and Bai Weiwei’s strength was.

Bai Weiwei didn’t need any external help to defeat him.

At this moment, a powerful voice came, “Bastard! You dare to commit murder inside the sect? You’re so vicious and heartless. I’ll teach you a lesson on behalf of your master!”

The speaker was Ma Wuliang.

He instantly appeared in the air above the Underground Palace and threw a palm strike at Bai Weiwei.

The vast palm force made people suspect that this palm was really meant to kill Bai Weiwei instead of teaching her a lesson.

His sudden appearance stunned everyone present.

Before they could figure out what was happening, Elder Ma had struck out furiously.

Just as everyone thought that Bai Weiwei was about to die, an even more powerful pressure swept over.

Ma Wuliang’s palm force instantly disappeared under this immense pressure.

Bai Weiwei heaved a sigh of relief.

She knew that her master had made a move.

“Are you worthy of teaching my disciple a lesson?”

Xuan Yi’s voice exploded in front of the huge Underground Palace.

“What… What’s going on? Why is this pressure so terrifying?”

Some of the weaker disciples almost knelt down under the pressure.

What kind of pressure was this?

Under this pressure, even their breathing became shallow.

One had to know that Xuan Yi wasn’t present. If he was here personally, then they wouldn’t even be able to breathe.

If Ma Wuliang’s pressure was like the light of a firefly, then Xuan Yi’s terrifying pressure was like the bright light from the moon!

The two were simply not on the same level!

On the arena, Ma Wuliang’s eyes widened as he looked at Bai Weiwei’ spirit sword in disbelief.

It turned out that Xuan Yi had engraved his own spirit energy imprint on the supreme-grade spirit sword that he had given to Bai Weiwei. Through this imprint, he was able to transport such a terrifyingly powerful strength from the sword.

If he personally arrived, he could kill Ma Wuliang with a single strike!

Heavens, it had only been a few days since they last met, but Xuan Yi’s strength had actually increased to such a terrifying height!

He was truly the number one genius of the Profound Sword Sect!

At this moment, Ma Wuliang was not in the mood to admire Xuan Yi’s genius because they had become enemies!

Ma Wuliang’s mind raced and he knew that he couldn’t kill Bai Weiwei right now. He’d find another opportunity to do it.

He glanced at Ma Liang, who was so frightened that he had wet his pants. Seeing this, he was even more resentful.

If it wasn’t for this bastard, he wouldn’t have offended such a powerful master!

He could only bite the bullet and say to the spirit sword, “Elder Xuan, it’s a misunderstanding. It’s a misunderstanding…”

Xuan Yi was speechless. How could it be a misunderstanding? If not for his precautions, his good disciple would have been killed by Ma Wuliang.

There was no need to say anything!

He shook his head and used his mind to control the spirit sword.

The spirit sword stood up in the air and flew to Bai Weiwei’s side.

He transmitted his voice to her, “Weiwei, as a sword cultivator, you should never let go of your sword.”

Bai Weiwei’s face turned red, feeling ashamed, but when she heard what Xuan Yi said next, she was thrilled.

“My disciples always avenge themselves. Pick up the spirit sword to avenge yourself and your master will help you!”

The spirit sword came before Bai Weiwei, and she took it with red-rimmed eyes.

At this moment, she felt her master’s powerful strength and monstrous sword intent!

When she slashed, and a sword aura that was hundreds of meters long appeared out of thin air.

Ma Wuliang and Ma Liang watched it in shock and hatred until it shattered the two of them into pieces.

Bai Weiwei’s eyes were moist. Not only did Xuan Yi give her a chance to kill her enemies, he had also taught her how to use her spirit energy to launch the sword move.

Deeply touched, she worshipped Xuan Yi even more.

The many disciples present were dumbstruck by what they saw.

Elder Xuan’s sword intent had killed Elder Ma, who was also in the Law Enforcement Realm. How could this not shock them? More importantly, to protect Bai Weiwei, a disciple he had just taken in, Xuan Yi had attached a wisp of his soul to her spirit sword.

A powerful master had the final say in any issue, and Xuan Yi undoubtedly had the most powerful battle strength in the entire sect.
