"How could it be those little guys?" Ying Xi was sowhat surprised after receiving intelligence from his subordinates.
Although it was unclear why the Abnormal People suddenly could no longer detect the presence of the Vermilion Bird envoy, the reliable Mystic Bureau had discovered her early on and secretly began surveillance.
However, according to the intelligence, it seed that the Vermilion Bird envoy had indeed parted ways with the Devouring Spirit Sect and blatantly appeared in Qingliang City.
The reason they didn’t act imdiately was because the Vermilion Bird envoy looked too much like the late princess, and this matter had to be reported to His Majesty first.
But before the news could be passed down, the Mystic Bureau found that Liang Yi and his group had started contacting the Vermilion Bird envoy, and it seed that they intended to take her away directly.
After pondering secretly for a long ti, Ying Xi decided not to interfere; Liang Yi’s actions might be indicated by the Banished Immortal.
Casually sending the intelligence and his own speculations directly to the Imperial Palace, Ying Xi clapped his hands and stopped bothering with this matter since the Vermilion Bird envoy hadn’t caused any trouble in Qingliang City.
Besides, whether it was her or not, with that face alone, no Cultivator from Xuanzhou Immortal Dynasty would dare to make a move.
Inside the Imperial Palace study, Zhou Zhukong slightly furrowed his brows as he looked at the freshly delivered intelligence.
That Vermilion Bird envoy was definitely his third younger sister, he and Chen Hua couldn’t both be mistaken, but it seed there were so issues with her Divine Soul mory.
Since the battle in Qingliang City where they discovered his younger sister, he and Chen Hua had discussed this issue, that not recognizing them could only be due to altered mories, manipulations had to be in the realm of the Divine Soul.
Therefore, he had since been keeping an eye on Daoist Skills or Magical Treasures related to Divine Soul, or possibly inviting Fang Zhi, who was proficient in Divine Souls, to have a look.
But now, seeing what that young man from Taoist Sect intended, it seed he had other ideas.
Thinking about this matter, it must have been clearly indicated by Chen Hua; thus, Zhou Zhukong was not in a hurry, letting the younger generation try first.
Elsewhere, Liang Yi had already used the Transmission Array of the Xuanzhou Immortal Dynasty to directly arrive at Eastern Capital, with Yuqing seeming more anxious than them, directly leading Liang Yi and others through the Void to the entrance of Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool.
"Hss, why is it still so cold here···" Uncle Tangerine shivered and huddled tightly around Liang Yi’s neck.
"It’s the Extre East Snow Mountain." Seeing Uncle Tangerine, who was afraid of cold, Liang Yi couldn’t help but chuckle, casually taking hold of his junior sister’s small hand.
Although he knew his junior sister wasn’t afraid of the cold, this was a perfect excuse to impress, and Liang Yi naturally seized the opportunity.
Yuqing, with her cultivation in the Eighth Realm, led Liang Yi and the others directly to the gate of Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool in no ti.
But just as they appeared, the Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool’s gate burst forth with millions of Sword Intents aiming straight at Yuqing.
Although Yuqing had subjectively left the Devouring Spirit Sect, the Mountain Protection Array of Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool wouldn’t recognize this.
Upon sensing Yuqing’s cultivation in the Eighth Realm and her unmistakable aura of Devouring Spirit Sect, the Sect Protection Array of Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool had already automatically unfolded, rcilessly targeting Yuqing directly.
Yuqing’s expression turned cold, sending Liang Yi and the others directly to the ground behind her, facing the millions of Sword Qi alone.
Sword Qi surged, and the Sword Winds howled, making Zhou Yuqing’s red hair flutter like flas from the perspective of Liang Yi and the others.
If Zhou Yuqing’s burning resembled flas of desire during the battle at Qingliang City, then the Zhou Yuqing now truly unleashed the innate Vermilion Bird Divine Fire of the Vermilion Bird Spirit!
The spirit of the Vermilion Bird spread its wings, thousands of feet wide, behind Zhou Yuqing, its screeching instantly filling the Heavenly Vault!
The all-encompassing Vermilion Bird Divine Fire filled the sky, instantly evaporating the boundless snow, replacing the white of the heavens and the earth with red.
Liang Yi wiped the sweat off his forehead; it was like instantaneously moving from Snow Mountain to a mountain of flas!
However, facing the overwhelming might of the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire, the Sword Qi from the Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool’s Lonely Shadow Sword Array amidst thousands of mountains showed no change at all.
It was unwise to et the boundless Divine Fire that could burn the vault of heaven with re Sword Qi. The Sect Protection Array of the Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool had more than just a single variant. The mont Zhou Yuqing unleashed the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire, a corresponding shift occurred.
Sword Qi began to disperse then converge; within the blink of an eye, the sky-full of Sword Qi fused into one sword.
A giant snow-colored sword that reached from earth to sky stood towering, its formidable power sufficient to unsettle anyone’s ntal State.
Several streaks of light flashed by, and the cultivators from the Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool arrived in front of the Great Formation, their expressions solemn as they looked at the transford landscape outside the Mountain Gate and at Zhou Yuqing who stood in the Void, red-robed and with flying red hair, her deanor cold like a descent of a fire god.
"This Demoness from the Devouring Spirit Sect dares to intrude our Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool’s Mountain Gate, utterly audacious!" An elder with white hair and eyebrows frowned as he looked at Zhou Yuqing opposite them.
"The Sword Master has gone to the back mountain, and it might take so ti for him to return," said another elder beside the white-haired one, his face rigid and as cold as ice.
Zhou Yuqing remained silent, realizing that Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool was indeed as straightforward and impulsive as the rumors suggested. Yet, she was not one to shy away from confrontation, especially having just ascended to the Eighth Realm and not yet fully tested her powers.
As if carrying a frigid winter, the giant Snow Sword moved, and with it, wind and snow filled the sky. Even the lands recently transford into sumr by the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire rapidly cooled down and began to be covered once again with thick white snow.
The scorching heat clashed with biting cold, the flas interweaving with the snowstorm!
The fierce flas even scorched black spots into the Void, while the extre cold seed to freeze ti itself. As these two forces collided, all else fell silent, all sounds fading into nothingness.
This power, comparable to the forces of nature, inspired awe in everyone, for in this grand era that had just begun, with sufficient talent, anyone could achieve this Realm.
"Hmph!" Zhou Yuqing grunted, covering her chest and stepping back slightly, her complexion pale.
The Sect Protection Array of the Snow Cleanse Heavenly Pool lacked its own consciousness, so each attack was with full force.
But Zhou Yuqing was different; their confrontation occurred too close to the ground. Should the full force of their collision erupt, it could turn thousands of miles into scorched earth, devoid of life.
Thus, Zhou Yuqing had actually held back during that last strike, and that was the main reason for her condition now.
"There’s more to this..." The leading elder of Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool also sensed the inside story behind the recent collision. After pondering for a mont, he directly imprinted a sword-shaped Token onto the Sect Protection Array, causing it to temporarily halt.
In their rush to react, they had montarily forgotten this point. And the Vermilion Bird’s emissary, whom they had judged to be an aggressor from the Devouring Spirit Sect, had protected this vast land, which from both emotional and logical perspectives, warranted that they first listen to what the Vermilion Bird’s emissary had to say.
