Since that’s the case...

Turn around, draw the sword, slash!

A wave of sword energy swept...

Boom!

The heavy layer of snow was lifted in one stroke, transforming into a terrifying avalanche, pressing down towards Ji Feng and the others.

Including Ling Meier and the other three, everyone’s faces changed upon seeing the snow wave.

Great Grandmaster?

Is such a person still considered a Great Grandmaster? That Liew Baiyi is talking nonsense!

Boom!

The snow wave still pressed down.

Swish, swish, swish!

Ling Meier and the other three, along with Wu Xie, retreated to either side.

Boom!!!

Shi Feixuan saw a huge block of ice appear within her sight, which someone had thrown from afar with great force...

Crashing into the snow wave...

That ice block...

Not only did Wu Xie’s face change dramatically, but even Sui Yi furrowed his brows, reversed his hand to deflect, and unleashed another sword strike. A beam of sword light cut through the middle, splitting the snow wave and avoiding the colliding ice block.

Bang!

The large ice block fell to the ground.

Landed at the very center of the two opposing factions.

Before Sui Yi and Wu Xie could make a move, a beam of white light shot out from the vast snowy background.

Liew Baiyi stood at the center of that ice block, looking at Sui Yi and the others.

Pointing to the person frozen within the ice beneath him.

"Wu Xie... your wife is here. I’ve already found her for you..."

Within the transparent ice block, there was a woman dressed in blue, with exquisite, delicate features and a graceful figure. The thin blue nishang around her diffused like a beautiful mermaid frozen while frolicking underwater, her skin pale without a trace of blood under her veins... she was history frozen by time, a memory for Wu Xie, and also a memory that Sui Yi always wanted to recover...

There she was.

Qi Lian, Shi Feixuan, and the others suddenly had this name pop into their minds.

Wu Xie stared at the frozen Qi Lian.

A hostage, setting up a hostage from the start to create a perfect victory? 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Actually, I don’t quite understand why you always oppose me..." Liew Baiyi smiled, slowly drawing a sword, the blade aimed at Qi Lian’s head within the ice block.

"I haven’t harmed your wife before, but now, maybe not..."

"Submit, or continue, the choice is yours."

The so-called battle strategy is to win over the heart.

With Qi Lian in hand, Wu Xie is no longer a threat.

Even Shi Feixuan and the others thought so.

Everyone looked towards Wu Xie and Sui Yi, the two strongest forces.

The former’s pupils turned red, clearly not as calm as usual, while Sui Yi...was even calmer than ever, and said calmly: "Wu Xie, do you trust me?"

Wu Xie turned to look at Sui Yi but said something that left Sui Yi silent: "You abandoned her once before, why should I trust you again?"

Sui Yi tilted his head slightly.

"But this time, I will trust you."

"Because she trusts you."

"Although whether I trust or not, you will inevitably take action..."

Wu Xie’s fingers tightened on the sword, his Qi Mechanism locked onto Liew Baiyi, the latter’s expression slightly darkened, as this reaction was beyond his expectation.

Indeed, Sui Yi did not care whether others trusted him or not, for in certain matters, his judgment and decisions were never subject to others’ comments. This was a realization that Qi Lian conveyed to Wu Xie, and it was one hundred percent accurate, so Sui Yi looked at Liew Baiyi.

Not speaking, just staring at Liew Baiyi....

Demon Que rotated.

"Liew Baiyi, do you wish to go back?"

Liew Baiyi: "....."

Sui Yi moved.

The sword light had already reached the center of Liew Baiyi’s pupil before his sword stabbed down.

Too fast, too fast!

Suddenly Liew Baiyi understood that threatening Sui Yi with his level of strength was a joke, for in the past, everyone exaggerated when talking about Sui Yi, but now he realized... he still underestimated Sui Yi.

If he wants to return, what happens if he loses his life?

If he wants his life, what happens to Qi Lian?

Liew Baiyi didn’t hesitate at all, instantly leaping backward.

Qi Lian, he couldn’t make a move!

Sui Yi also blocked Liew Baiyi, who was more concerned about his life than anyone else, and in this round, Liew Baiyi lost again.

"You usually boast about how amazing you are, and now you’re still cowardly," Ji Feng mocked Liew Baiyi, but the latter responded expressionlessly: "Wu Xie alone can handle your four, but still can’t stop me. I advise you to understand the difference between us and not let me kill you!"

Ji Feng’s face changed, no more words, just a cold snort: "Then let’s see if you can defeat Wu Xie today!"

Liew Baiyi chuckled, fool, still doesn’t understand that the biggest opponent here isn’t Wu Xie, but Sui Yi!

"Alright, then I’ll leave Sui Yi to you."

Uh... even Ji Feng and the other four couldn’t say no.

The four moved instantly!

Illusory figures flickered, blocking Sui Yi from all directions.

Meanwhile, Liew Baiyi pointed his sword at Wu Xie, saying nothing, but Wu Xie understood that today, they indeed had to settle this.

The sword moved!

Sui Yi’s sword also moved!

The grand battle erupted!

When the four’s attacks simultaneously reached Sui Yi’s eyes, Sui Yi got to work with both hands. The left hand wielded Demon Que, transforming into Sword Flow, directly entangling Ji Feng’s sword shadows, while also splitting Sword Qi to shatter Hu Xiao’s arrows!

Meanwhile, the left hand’s Beak of the Golden Crow fired up and down, the finger light exploding!

Boom! Boom!

The alliance of the four was scattered in the first round.

And Ling Meier was the first to retreat!

No choice, her Illusion Technique was utterly useless against Sui Yi, and outside the illusion, her actual attack and defense were the weakest, struck by Sui Yi’s finger light, all the Inner Strength she gathered for the defense shield barely blocked two-thirds, leaving one-third entering her body...

Puff!

The first Divine Guard, seriously wounded!

And the second one’s brow had already been locked by Sui Yi!

Sui Yi harbored no killing intent, yet was more terrifying than killing intent, for one could never detect when she would unleash a violent attack!

Ji Feng sensed the approach of death.

It was colder than any blade.

At this moment...

Suddenly, a magnificent aura burst from the building, wicked and chaotic, in a spacious hall, a man in black watched as hundreds of black-robed priests poured the blood of children into a pool...

His face remained calm, but his fingers moved.

With a movement of his fingers, he appeared outside the building, in a world of ice and snow.

Standing amidst the vast white snow, he walked forth, directing a finger towards the third floor of the Tower of Curses.

Soul capturing technique, but different from the usual soul capturing technique.

Its ability to capture souls was too powerful.

So powerful that within that third floor, Hell’s Wan Ge, who was imprisoned, suddenly had golden light burst from her pupils. She wanted to tear open the cage, but the runes added by Sui Yi glowed, binding her...

Only for a second.

Boom!

It broke open!

Swish!

Hell’s Wan Ge transformed into a streak of black light, blasting out from mid-air, her whole body covered in Divine Runes, with even her hair flowing in gold, both hands raised, and a scythe appeared just like that, then...

She swung it down towards Sui Yi!

Sect Master Level strength!

Kill!

In the Poison Valley, the battle had long grown cold and bloody...of course, most of the blood was from vessels and jars inside, spilling out due to the fights by Natasha and others, Natasha and those with her were the main attacking force, Shen Luoyan acted as the strategist, indeed this lady commanded excellently, even the proud Natasha acknowledged it, so despite the perilous situation in Poison Valley, everyone believed they would win.

Yet, the focus was always on the summit.

Could Sui Yi and her team win?

As the battle raged, Natasha’s face changed suddenly, looking towards the summit.

The golden light was too dazzling, and the aura was extremely familiar to her, also inflicted by the Curses.

"Damn it, that dumb woman is controlled again."

"Previously, her power leaked, and I thought her inner spirit had burst forth..."

"So weak!"

Although Natasha mocked like this, Shang Xiuxun and others secretly felt uneasy.

The summit... it was likely to be difficult. (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations, monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
