“The strength of the Liuhe Sect was originally much weaker than our Tianluo Sect.”
“Their Sect Master, Li Tiange, isn’t particularly powerful.”
“Tiger Lord, Eagle Lord, and I, along with the missing Ghost Emissary Mr. Mo, any one of us could defeat him.”
“But somehow, this guy managed to find a powerful backer, and now he has four mysterious experts by his side.”
“These four experts are all at the mid-stage of the Phecda Realm, comparable to me, Tiger Lord, and Eagle Lord.”
“Additionally, they have a force of about thirty thousand red-clad death soldiers.”
“The bodies of these red-clad death soldiers seem to have undergone special treatment. Not only is their defense extremely strong, but they also feel no pain.”
“All these red-clad death soldiers are at the initial stage of the Merak Realm.”
“Therefore, the combat power of these thirty thousand red-clad death soldiers is terrifying. Once they enter the battlefield, we are bound to be defeated.”
On the back of the Nether Beast, Yun Shuiqing spoke.
“Do we know where the power behind the Liuhe Sect comes from?” Fang Ling asked.
Yun Shuiqing replied solemnly, “It might be from the Blood Marsh, most likely from the Blood Marsh.”
“The cultivation world of the South Sun Kingdom is not that large. If they were local cultivators, we would definitely recognize some of them.”
“Sect Master, should we wait for the Bai family reinforcements before breaking into the encirclement?”
“The Bai family is one of the seven great cultivation families in the South Sun Kingdom. With their help, we can break through quickly.”
“No need, I have a plan in mind,” Fang Ling said.
Yun Shuiqing nodded and said no more.
Behind them, Dou Qin let out a breath and withdrew her hand from Yun Shuiqing’s back, her green spiritual power receding.
In just the time it takes to burn a stick of incense, she had completely healed Yun Shuiqing’s injuries.
Yun Shuiqing quickly thanked her, “Thank you, Sister Dou!”
Dou Qin smiled, “No need for such formalities between us.”
“When we get to the Flying Eagle Sect, I’ll need your help again,” Yun Shuiqing said.
“Master Qingmu was assassinated, and the sect urgently needs a medical expert like you.”
Dou Qin was a bit shocked to hear about Master Qingmu’s death, “What a pity.”
“Master Qingmu’s medical skills and alchemy were no less than mine, yet he was killed!”
In the cultivation world, it’s rare for physicians to be killed, especially highly skilled ones.
After all, who can guarantee they won’t need a physician to treat their injuries or help with alchemy one day?
Gradually, an unwritten rule emerged in the cultivation world: avoid killing physicians.
Killing a physician could easily provoke public outrage and bring no benefit to oneself.
“So the Liuhe Sect is clearly planning to fight to the death,” Yun Shuiqing said solemnly.
“Won’t helping us cause trouble for you?” she asked Dou Qin.
Dou Qin shook her head, “No worries. I’m no longer the insignificant girl I once was.”
“In the Medical Immortal Valley, I’m now the chief physician, second only to the Valley Master.”
“Even if the royal family knows I’m helping your Tianluo Sect, they’ll turn a blind eye.”
“So Sister Dou is now the chief physician of the Medical Immortal Valley. No wonder you healed me so quickly,” Yun Shuiqing said.
The two women, not having seen each other for years, chatted warmly behind Fang Ling.
Fang Ling, on the other hand, grew more excited, eager to fly to the Flying Eagle Sect immediately.
To him, the Liuhe Sect was not an enemy but a big piece of fat meat, making his mouth water.
…
Meanwhile, at the Flying Eagle Sect.
In the main hall, a gloomy atmosphere prevailed.
The experts of the sect were all injured to varying degrees and were resting here.
On the main seat, a tall, beautiful woman in silver armor surveyed the room.
She was Feng Feiyan, the Eagle Lord, one of the three lords of the Tianluo Sect.
“Everyone, I will lead the Flying Eagle Sect’s death soldiers to carve a path out.”
“You should leave! You shouldn’t have come here in the first place,” she suddenly said.
Hu Yue snorted coldly, “Do I, Hu Yue, look like a coward who would run away with my tail between my legs?”
“At this point, there’s no other choice but to fight to the death!”
“Though our Tianluo Sect has declined, we’ve never backed down in any battle with any sect.”
“Even if I die, I’ll take a few of them with me!”
Man Tianning, lying on the ground resting, laughed, “I always hated Tiger Lord’s bad temper, but at this moment, I find it quite endearing.”
“It feels like the old days when we fought battles everywhere!”
“When South Sun cultivators mentioned our Eagle, Tiger, and Python trio, who didn’t retreat three steps?”
“We’re not at the end yet. As long as the Sect Master can come, there might still be a chance,” Fire Guard Yan Jun said, twirling a flower in his fingers.
Water Guard Youyu lazily lay in his arms, casually stroking his face.
The two were Dao Companions, having known each other since childhood and walked hand in hand to this day.
In this world, it was common for men to have multiple wives and concubines.
It was also not uncommon for powerful women to have several men.
But these two were loyal to each other, with eyes only for each other.
Water and fire don’t mix, but they were inseparable, making others envious.
“Who exactly is this Sect Master you’re talking about?” Feng Feiyan asked with a frown.
“Even if he comes, he might not be able to change the situation.”
“The Liuhe Sect has over a hundred thousand more cultivators than us, plus those twenty thousand red-clad death soldiers…”
“The power behind the Liuhe Sect must be formidable, possibly with experts stationed at the rear.”
Hu Yue said, “The Sect Master is young but has cultivation far beyond ours. He is likely a descendant of a great family or sect within the domain and might be able to bring strong reinforcements.”
“Or he might negotiate with the power behind the Liuhe Sect to make them give him some face.”
“Let’s hope so!” Feng Feiyan sighed helplessly.
“This is all because of me, implicating everyone…”
“Eagle Lord, there’s no need to say that. We’re all in this together, sharing honor and disgrace,” Youyu said calmly.
“When the tomb raider was hanged in the royal city, the royal ancestral tomb was attacked by a mysterious force the next day.”
“That incident should have been your doing, right, Eagle Lord?”
Feng Feiyan neither confirmed nor denied it.
“Report! A mysterious force has suddenly attacked from the west side,” a disciple suddenly reported.
“Could it be the Sect Master?” Hu Yue stood up, a hint of joy in his eyes.
“No matter who it is, let’s take people to support them,” Feng Feiyan said.
“Those of you who can’t fight, stay here and rest. Tiger Lord and I will go.”
The two immediately led their forces to the west side of the encirclement to support the reinforcements.
The reinforcements caught the Liuhe Sect off guard, breaking through the western defense line completely.
The reinforcements joined forces with the Flying Eagle Sect.
“So it’s Mr. Mo. I thought it was the Sect Master,” Hu Yue laughed.
“Mr. Mo, you’ve been like a ghost for the past two hundred years.”
“I thought you were dead!”
Mr. Mo was quite unique, dressed more like a scholar than a cultivator, always holding a landscape folding fan.
“Tiger Lord, it’s been a while!” Mr. Mo greeted elegantly.
“And everyone, I’ve missed you since we last met!”
