"Very well, you all come with me!" Zhong Shan declared. Fịndd new updates at novelhall.com

Hearing Zhong Shan's words, Zhao Suoxiang felt a warmth in his heart, casting a grateful glance at him. Zhong Shan's heart swelled with satisfaction, knowing that Zhao Suoxiang's gratitude was rare. From their past conversations, he knew that Zhao Suoxiang was very proud; such gratitude was likely only extended to his master or parents.

As for Zhao Suoxiang's uncles, while they were grateful to Zhong Shan, they understood that this gratitude stemmed entirely from their nephew.

Tian Sha frowned, while Bei Qingsi remained expressionless.

"Hmph, Kaiyang Sect? This is a grudge between us. You'd best not interfere," a distant swordsman called out.

Zhong Shan cast a cold glance at the speaker and smiled slightly. For Zhong Shan, leveraging situations to his advantage was a specialty.

Tian Sha harbored murderous intent towards him but, due to his master and Bei Qingsi, couldn't openly express it. In a battle, Tian Sha would certainly find an 'accidental' opportunity to let Zhong Shan die at their hands.

However, Zhong Shan had Bei Qingsi and the Iron Spear Sect to protect him. What was there to fear?

"Those who can fly, take those who can't and come with me. Senior Brother, please hold them off," Zhong Shan suddenly said.

Hearing Zhong Shan's words, Zhao Suoxiang and the others exchanged glances and quickly nodded. Tian Sha, though simmering with suppressed anger, could only nod reluctantly.

"Whoosh~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

Four Iron Spear Sect members grabbed their comrades, including Zhao Suoxiang, and flew on their spears. Although they were all at the Golden Core stage, possessing Cloud Essence wasn't as common as in the higher sects like Kaiyang Sect. It was impressive that half of them had Cloud Essence.

"Bastards~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

A Mingjian Sect disciple shouted furiously, slashing his long sword towards them. A twenty-zhang sword aura, brimming with sword energy, shot towards Tian Sha.

Tian Sha squinted, drawing his sword with a 'zing.' The Mingjian Sect disciple was sent flying back.

However, the enmity had already been established. These fifty Golden Core cultivators wouldn't let the Iron Spear Sect members escape so easily.

Around twenty cultivators took to the skies on flying swords or blades, chasing after Zhong Shan, while the remaining thirty Golden Core cultivators ran on the ground. The speed of Golden Core cultivators on foot was terrifying. Although they couldn't fly, their speed on the ground was not much slower than those on flying swords, especially since Zhong Shan wasn't very fast.

Seeing this, Tian Sha's eyes lit up with glee. With pursuers, he could afford to show weakness.

Tian Sha had mastered the 'Sky-Splitting Sword Technique,' a sword art that hadn't been successfully practiced in a thousand years. Six months ago, he was already considered capable of threatening Nascent Soul stage cultivators. Such strength could have easily held off twenty or more Golden Core cultivators, but now he only held back eight, allowing the other forty-two to chase after Zhong Shan.

Despite their speed, the pursuers were not weak, and soon the Golden Core cultivators caught up with them after crossing just two mountain ridges.

"Crack, crack, crack, crack!"

A series of cracks sounded. The towering waves behind them froze in an instant, transforming into a massive glacier.

Zhongshan widened his eyes, as did the disciples of the Iron Spear Sect, and the numerous experts in the Golden Core realm. How could this be?

Countless chunks of ice surrounded Zhongshan and his companions, forming a safe zone around them. Meanwhile, a figure clad in white robes, her long hair trailing behind her, strode forward atop a stretch of unfrozen river water.

Standing atop a towering glacier, her longsword pointed towards the group of Golden Core experts.

Several powerful individuals standing close to the glacier witnessed a sudden eruption of fifty-zhang tall ice spikes, narrowly missing piercing through their clothes and bodies, thanks to their swift reflexes.

As the upstream river water continued to flow, the glacier expanded, controlled effortlessly by the figure in white. Under her command, the ice formations transformed into massive waves or sharp ice spikes, at her whim.

With a cold gaze, she surveyed her surroundings, causing the besieging Golden Core experts to retreat in fear, their hearts chilled. Is this still the power of the Golden Core realm?

Even the disciples of the Iron Spear Sect widened their eyes, realizing that such abilities could only be wielded by Nascent Soul experts. Bei Qingsi? No wonder Zhongshan was so confident. Bei Qingsi had already surpassed her status as the second-generation disciple of the Kaiyang Sect; she had ascended to become a first-generation disciple, a Nascent Soul expert. What was there to fear?

Zhongshan gazed at Bei Qingsi, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes. He knew better than anyone that Bei Qingsi had reached the Nascent Soul realm. Was this ability to freeze water into ice formations her bloodline inheritance, or just a small part of it? Was the true power of her bloodline inheritance far greater than this?

The assailants hesitated, each of them retreating from the glacier, their eyes filled with intense solemnity, exchanging glances with one another, swallowing nervously.

"Hmph," Bei Qingsi snorted coldly.

With her snort, a sudden chill enveloped the entire area. A deluge of frost and snow descended from the sky, while endless ice spikes shot forth from the glacier towards the Golden Core experts.

"Clang, clang, clang..."

The Golden Core experts swiftly defended themselves, shattering the ice spikes with each strike, but their sheer numbers were overwhelming, far surpassing the earlier onslaught of sword qi.

Retreating further, two hundred zhang away, the experts finally felt some relief. Gasping for breath, they surveyed the icy landscape before them.

In the distance, as Tian Sha fought against eight Golden Core experts, he also witnessed Bei Qingsi's dominance. Seeing this scene, Tian Sha widened his eyes in disbelief. He knew Bei Qingsi was powerful, but this was beyond belief. At the same time, he harbored much resentment towards Zhongshan, who was protected by Bei Qingsi.

If not for Zhongshan, Bei Qingsi would be mine!

With a surge of frustration, Tian Sha's eyes gleamed with determination as he fiercely swung his longsword.

"Swish~"

An enraged Tian Sha cleaved a Golden Core expert in half, leaving them dead on the spot.
