Murong Dawn, the Murong Family's rank 4, was also the smallest city in the four cities — — City Lord Wing. Although he was the fourth young master of the Murong Family, he had a physique that was the opposite of the Murong Family. He was short and fat, but his movements were agile. At this moment, he was holding a sharp dagger, skillfully dismembering a large object … … Qiong Qi!

The ground was covered in blood, and a moment later, it was covered in snow. The pure white snow was covered with dark red blood, and only then did it not seem quite so bloody. Gu Xueluo, Wang Qingchuan, and Yuyin couldn't bear to look at him directly. Even Yun Jiu Tang and Shen Ying Yang frowned slightly. Just when everyone's patience was about to run out, Murong Dawn let out a victorious shout, "Found it! "We finally found it!" His voice was still mixed with his unique shrill and high-pitched tone.

He was holding one of his hands up high, blood dripping down his arm, while his palm was clean. He walked to the front of the crowd and opened his palm, revealing a sparkling and translucent round crystal.

"Is this the legendary beast spirit?"

"Yeah, there's actually such a beautiful thing hidden in the body of this Evil Beast."

"It's sparkling and translucent, just like a beautiful crystal."

"I can really get my hands on top-grade decorations from Jade Wall City's rouge shop."

Yun Jiu Tang looked at the beast spirit and sighed, "So it was this crystal-like thing that caused the world to fight against each other. Back then, it was to obtain this thing that Mo Zun Nu entered into danger and ended up being buried in the beast tide."

"That's right, it seems like Young Master Yun knows a lot about the future of the beast spirit." Murong Ming held the beast spirit with both hands as if he was holding a beloved object, and events played in his mind, "I was just ten years old when the beast tide attacked. Looking at the adults talking about the fear in their faces, as well as the tense atmosphere caused by the Six Realms' mutiny, I swore that I would take a look at this beast spirit in my lifetime to see what kind of magic it has that can attract people to fight over it."

"Now that you have the beast spirit in your hands, it will satisfy your curiosity." Shen Jingyang looked at him and disdainfully said.

Sigh. I never would have thought that it was such an insignificant little thing that caused our journey to go through a thousand dangers and almost lose our lives. It took us more than a month to fight the Qiong Qi in every direction and almost lose our lives. Murong Yu stared at the beast spirit with mixed feelings.

They went back the way they came. Snow and snow were falling heavily here. For tens of thousands of years, the vast sea had been covered in cold snow. No matter how the seasons changed, the snow here would never change. It was a mysterious and boundless place. There were no schemes or plots here, no famine or passing years. There were only the Qiong Qi and the distant evil legends of the Flying Blood Bat, and there were only the people who walked between them time and time again, plotting their domination.

Snowflakes danced chaotically, unceasingly pouring into people's necks and collars; the angry howls of the cold wind transmitted the endless sorrowful cries and grandeur of the Great Sea. A biting cold wind blew, causing Yun Jiuchang's face to hurt, but he wished that time could pass a little slower. Suddenly, he felt an inexplicable sense of nostalgia.

He looked at the endless snowy plains sealed by ice and gazed at the pure white and tranquil world. He thought to himself, "This is the place where the fifth hidden spirit of my past life fought a bloody battle. I will soon leave this icy world, and I probably won't have the chance to come here again." In reality, this place was still a piece of pure land. It was always quiet and free from strife. There was no such thing as deceitful, scheming, or scheming. It had experienced many years of snow and wind, and was extremely beautiful.

In front of him, the towering outline of the Qing Qiu Mountain's Xuanyuan Yan could already be vaguely seen. It was as if he could feel the warm breath of the human world. It was almost to the Qing Qiu Mountains! Everyone's faces were brimming with a cheerful smile. They were like victorious conquerors. They couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions when they came back victorious.

Yun Jiu Tang turned his head slowly and looked at the vast sea once more, his eyes sparkling. After a long while, he turned around and walked straight down the path, leaving the snow and ice plains flying behind him.

"The Qiong Qi has finally been eliminated, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to come back here in the future." Wang Qingchuan said in a low voice while enduring the pain.

"What, could it be that Lady Qing Chuan is still reluctant to part with it?" Shen Jingyang was curious to hear what Wang Qingchuan had to say. From his point of view, this sort of place was extremely cold and enclosed. If it wasn't for the fact that someone else would have come here, no one else would have thought to come to this kind of place.

Once Shen Jingyang finished speaking, Yun Jiuchang smiled and the corner of his eyes fell on Wang Qingchuan. The two of them looked at each other for a moment, while Wang Qingchuan's eyes were in a mess.

The snowstorm was getting thinner and thinner and more and more sparse. Finally, behind the crowd, the wind gradually stopped and the snow gradually stopped. After exiting the sea, the group entered the borders of the Qing Qiu Mountains. At the boundary between the two realms, on one side, there was a vast expanse of white snow that filled the sky, and on the other side, there was the deep green of Mao Forest Xiu Zhu.

"There should be an inn not far ahead. I'll go get some information so that we can get something to eat, and if you don't eat something, then I won't be able to walk." As he spoke, he galloped away.

"He's so fat, it's fine even if he gets hungry for a while."

"You don't understand, do you? Fat people are always afraid of hunger, so they can do whatever they want. But don't let them get hungry at one go, otherwise they will worry about you."

Shen Jingyang's teasing caused everyone to laugh out loud. His hearty laughter reverberated through the mountains.

The group continued to move forward at a leisurely pace. As the wind blew, Yun Jiu Tang felt that the forest was eerily quiet, "Why isn't City Lord Murong back yet? There shouldn't be any inns ahead, right?"

"Ai, don't worry. He'll be fine. Maybe he's eating heartily in that tavern. When Fatty meets delicious food, he won't think of his companions." He had arrived at the Qing Qiu Mountains, and his tense nerves were finally relaxed. With his fierce, Qiong Qi removed, what was there to worry about?

Suddenly, "Help …" "Save me …" A few high-pitched shrieks came from the front, piercing through the originally silent and relaxed forest.

Murong Dawn! That's right, it was his voice!

Without waiting for them to speak, Yun Jiu Tang tightened the reins of his horse, gripped his sword and said anxiously, "Brother Shen, let's go and see what's going on. Xue Luo and the other two will be here soon!" Before he could finish his sentence, he and Shen Yushi had already moved several meters away. They galloped their horses and galloped forward at top speed.

Ahead of him, on a high rock, Murong Ming was trembling. His legs were weak, and his eyes were filled with an unforeseeable fear. He had a steel saber shining with a cold light on his neck, and the man holding it was tall and sturdy. He wore a black bamboo hat, and a black veil covered his face.

"Young Hero …" Save... "Save me …" Murong Ming squeezed out a few words from his mouth, but the price he paid was that the steel blade was even tighter, revealing shallow bloodstains.

The man in black behind him growled fiercely, "If you continue shouting, Iron Blade will cut your neck!"

Yun Jiuchang and Shen Jingyang hastily raised their hands and made a gesture of 'stop'. Yun Jiuchang anxiously said, "If there's anything you want to say, just say it. Why do you want to take his life?"

The look in the black clothed man's eyes became even more peculiar and fierce. "Quickly hand over the beast spirit that you brought with you!" He lowered his voice so that no one would be able to tell what was special about him.

Spirit beast? What was this person's background? Why did he get the news when the Beast Fighters had just left the Great Sea? His face was covered, indicating that he probably knew one of the volunteers, or that someone among the volunteers knew him, like a bandit robbing a bandit. Because neither of them knew each other, it was useless to show him off. But this person was definitely very familiar with everyone here.

The beast spirit was wrapped in a coarse cloth and placed in a brocade box carried by Yun Jiu Tang. Yun Jiuchang and Shen Jingyang exchanged a look and firmly decided that the beast spirit must not be handed over to him!

"We have something to discuss. We're bringing this beast spirit over to …" Yun Jiu Tang wanted to stabilize the man in black so he could stall for time and find a chance to save Murong Yu, but he was rudely interrupted by the man in black before he could finish his words.

"Hand it over now!" Otherwise, he's dead for sure! " The black clothed man violently growled. The steel blade slightly pressed against Murong Ming's neck, causing blood to flow out.

"Blood... Blood... I'm going to die, hurry... Quick, put the beast spirit away... Leave it to him … " Murong Ming saw the blood flowing down the blade of the sword from his neck as he shouted loudly, as if his life was at stake.

At this time, along with the sound of frantic footsteps, Gu Xueluo, Wang Qingchuan, and Li Zongyin had also rushed over. Wang Qingchuan's pale face revealed a pained expression.

Seeing this situation, Yun Jiuchang could only place the embroidered box on his back down and slowly open it. He quickly covered the Exquisite Pagoda with the Great Sea Scroll and took out the bag. After exchanging glances with Shen Jingyang, he prepared to toss it to the black-clothed man.

"Wait!" Don't you understand? What I want is a beast spirit! " The man in black said one word at a time

"This is the beast spirit." Yun Jiu Tang pointed at the bag and raised it high up in the air.

"Yeah, this..." "It really is a beast spirit. I wrapped it in a piece of coarse cloth …" He knew that it was indeed inappropriate to use this kind of tattered and coarse cloth to wrap the supreme being's treasure, so he quickly replied, afraid that the black-clothed man wouldn't believe him.

Yun Jiuchang made a slight gesture with his finger, and Shen Jingyang seemed to have understood something. The two of them were ready to strike at any moment.

"Nobody move!" The black clothed man became alert once again, as if he had sensed everyone's cunning and danger. He pointed at the injured Wang Qingchuan and said, "Have her bring the beast spirit over!"

The man in black's actions shocked everyone. Yun Jiuchang felt as if he had been punched in the head. His mind went blank and his thoughts were in a mess.

"She's heavily injured and can't walk …" Shen Tianyang answered.

"My patience is limited when I ask her to send it over!" The black clothed man's steel blade seemed to sink even deeper into Murong Yu's neck, causing him to convulse and scream once again.

Wang Qingchuan endured the pain and jumped off his horse. The moment they took the bag, their eyes met, and it was as if a distant thread of emotion had stirred up a ripple in his heart. Wang Qingchuan could not forget this critical moment, it was a gaze he was familiar with at the bottom of his heart. Even if he was hanging by a thread, he could still give himself a sense of security.

When she passed by Yun Jiuchang, she only heard him whisper, "Be careful!" The words of a lover melted everything in an instant. With a smile on her face, she held the coarse cloth bag and slowly walked towards the black-clothed man. She didn't actually feel any fear at all in her heart.

At this moment, Shen Yushi had already quietly pulled out his Dark Bow, hiding it within his hands. Yun Jiuchang also gripped his black blade tightly. They were waiting for the right moment.

When Wang Qingchuan was about to arrive in front of Murong Dawn, the bow in Shen Jingyang's hand faintly appeared, the silver light reflecting off the bowstring reflected into the man in black's eyes.

Not good! Dark Hidden Bow!

The man in black pushed Murong Dawn towards Shen Jingyang with his palm, then quickly snatched the bag away. Then, he took the opportunity and slammed his palm onto Wang Qingchuan's chest, borrowing the force of his punch to leap forward.

Wang Qingchuan was sent flying several zhang away. He fell heavily on the ground and passed out.

The black clothed man's palm strike caused Murong Dawn's fat and heavy body to fly up, directly colliding with Shen Jingyang, who was about to be shot out by Zhang Gong. Faced with such a sudden appearance, Shen Jingyang hurriedly retracted his bow and caught Murong Dawn with one hand.

Within a split-second, Yun Jiuchang had already flown tens of feet away. The black-clothed man must not be allowed to escape like this!

With one in front and the other behind him, the two of them moved as fast as lightning. In the time it took for a spark to fly, they had already traveled more than a dozen feet. The sound of clothes tearing through the air came from his swift and fierce movement technique, slicing through the dense aura in the forest.

Yun Jiu Tang rushed towards him, but the black clothed man suddenly turned around and chopped down with his saber. The sharp blade was imbued with a heavy killing intent, it was as if he was using the power of a thousand kilograms to split open a huge rock. This kind of force, this kind of sharp blade, even Li Fengxian's Dragon Fang might not be able to reach it.

Yun Jiu Tang held up his black blade and used it to block the heavy blade. His heart sank as he tried his best to resist, but the black clothed man's internal energy surprised him.

Just as his body was falling down rapidly, he took the opportunity to strike out with his palm, attacking the right side of the man in black's abdomen. The man in black was shocked. He moved out of the way and dodged to the side, allowing Yun Jiuchang to hit nothing but air. Yun Jiu Tang had yet to recover his energy from his palm and the man in black took the opportunity to run a few meters away. The shadow of his palms changed, turning around and striking out dozens of palm shadows a few meters away.

Yun Jiuchang was about to take the hit when he heard a loud explosion from his palm. In an instant, a sharp black light enveloped him as he struggled to fly out. When he looked closely, the man in black had long disappeared.

Startled, he quickly turned around and ran to the place where everyone was waiting.

She looked pale, and blood was flowing out of her mouth. Shen Jingyang quickly sealed a few of her acupoints, and secretly channeled his internal energy to channel his Zhen Qi into her body.

A moment later, Wang Qingchuan opened his eyes and saw everyone's faces. She looked at Yun Jiuchang's familiar smile and was overjoyed despite the pain in her chest.

"We can't stay here for long!" "Let's go!" Yun Jiuchang said to the others as he carried Wang Qingchuan onto the back of a horse. Everyone no longer cared about the pain of their spirits being stolen. All they wanted to do was to leave this terrifying place as soon as possible.

He stared straight ahead, as if he had not yet recovered from the strange scene in which his life was hanging by a thread. This was the closest he had come to death since everyone started fighting the Qiong Qi, and he was actually being held hostage.

In an open space ahead, two figures were impressively standing there.

Everyone was shocked. Yun Jiuchang and Shen Jingyang were also worried. Could it be that there was another black shadow coming to rob them?

"Jiu Tang, it's finally time for you two to return in triumph!" A familiar voice sounded as the two figures slowly walked over from afar.

Oh, so it's the Devil Ancestor! Yun Jiu Tang gave a false alarm and smiled at the crowd, "It's alright. Everyone, don't worry. The Devil Ancestor is here to welcome us."
