The next day. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Lanyue Peak.

Ye Xiyue stood at the peak, hands behind her back. She wore a Moon White Fairy Skirt, her black hair swaying in the wind, holding a Long Sword, staring proudly at the countless Demonic Beasts below, cold and stunning, she spoke lightly:

"Disciples of the Zhenyang Sect, heed my order, follow me into the city to kill!"

Behind her were Chun Ningzhi, Wei Wan, followed by a group of Zhenyang Sect disciples.

Hearing her words, Chun Ningzhi was the first to respond loudly:

"Follow Elder Ye to slay the Demonic Beasts!"

The disciples followed with a loud shout: "Follow Elder Ye to slay the Demonic Beasts!"

For a moment, this group of Zhenyang Sect disciples, though only a little over a hundred strong, seemed as mighty as a million troops.

"Kill!"

Ye Xiyue shouted delicately, leapt down from the mountain peak, and flew towards the Demonic Beasts below!

In mid-air, her skirts fluttered, her hair like a waterfall, her tall and elegant figure like a war god of the Nine Heavens descending, falling like a meteor into the Demonic Beasts’ ranks, splashing a towering wave of blood.

In an instant, over a hundred Demonic Beasts were slain by her single sword!

Ye Xiyue’s incredibly valiant performance inspired the disciples behind her, who leapt down from the peak, following closely behind, and charged into the Demonic Beasts’ ranks!

Chun Ningzhi stayed by Ye Xiyue’s side, watching Junior Sister Ye dance like a fairy among the Demonic Beasts, killing countless of them, yet without a drop of blood on her, like an actual Fairy.

The admiration in his eyes grew stronger.

Junior Sister Ye is so beautiful!

I shall risk my life to protect Junior Sister Ye!

The disciples of Zhenyang Sect following behind sighed one after another:

"Senior Brother Chun and Master Sister are so powerful!"

"Elder Ye and Senior Brother Chun are truly a perfect match!"

"Master Sister is truly a Fairy descended to the world, a Heavenly Maiden come to earth!"

Listening to the praises around, Liu Su couldn’t help but laugh, thinking if they saw how Jian Yue flattered the prince consort’s heels, they wouldn’t be able to say such things?

Bang!

Qin Gengyun knocked away a Four-Horned Bull Beast that was sneak attacking Liu Su and reminded:

"Stay with us, don’t get distracted!"

Beside him, Qiu Zhihe also glared at Liu Su, while Mo Xiaolan silently followed behind, the surrounding Demonic Beasts couldn’t get close to her.

Liu Su stuck out her tongue: "These Demonic Beasts, though numerous, are so weak, we’ll soon enter the city, won’t we? What’s there to fear?"

Lanyue Peak was only a few miles from Zhenlian City, and looking up, one could see the outline of the city shrouded by dark clouds, with at least thousands of Demonic Beasts in between.

But these were all low-level Demonic Beasts, and with over two hundred of them at least of Foundation Establishment and led by Ye Xiyue in the front, they encountered no obstacles, and soon, they were about to charge to the city gates.

Xu Caihe looked up and finally saw her father, Xu Jiangxing, standing on the city wall. She shouted loudly:

"Father, your daughter has come back to help you!"

However, Xu Jiangxing’s face showed no joy, instead, he looked anxious:

"Be careful!"

Suddenly, the clouds in the sky thickened further, obscuring even the city at arm’s length.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The rapid sound of breaking air seemed to come from the Nine Heavens above, then got closer.

In the next moment, countless black glows were already in front of them!

Ah! Ah!

Screams rang out, several disciples burst into blood flowers and fell down limply.

Those beside them had no time to catch them and saw sharp objects with black light shoot close!

They quickly swung their swords to block, some had their swords broken, some with less cultivation were shaken and spat blood!

The crowd was stunned:

"What are these things?"

"Can Demonic Beasts shoot arrows?"

But those "arrows" knocked out and dropped on the ground were black all over, but softened upon landing.

"Pig bristles?!"

The crowd was astonished, a voice from Xu Jiangxing came from the front:

"These are Sixth Grade Demonic Beasts, Feiyu and Hunting Cloud! Feiyu’s bristles are as powerful as Flying Swords! Hunting Cloud can transform its own Spiritual Power into dark clouds, obscuring vision, these two beasts cooperate extremely well, everyone be careful!"

Xu Jiangxing’s voice gradually got quieter, and finally disappeared.

Chun Ningzhi said in a deep voice, "It is indeed the Ancient Demonic Beasts Hunting Cloud and Feiyu, it is said they are inseparable, always working together maliciously, today I see, the legends are true!"

Ye Xiyue stopped, her voice still cold: "Hunting Cloud’s dark clouds are like an Isolation Array, capable of blinding vision, affecting the five senses, all disciples listen to the order, form an array!"

"Yes!"

Several disciples following Ye Xiyue from Xiyue Peak worked together to draw a Defense Array, protecting everyone within.

In the next moment, the sound of thumping continuously sounded, as the bristles shot by Feiyu kept hitting the Defense Array, emitting waves of vibration noises.

"Master Sister, we can’t hold out much longer!"

The several disciples forming the array had pale faces, blood seeping from the corners of their mouths.

The crowd looked horrified: "What should we do?"

They lacked experience in fighting Demonic Beasts, unexpectedly these beasts could coordinate as seamlessly as human Cultivators.

The dark clouds obscured sight and senses, the bristles were used as arrows for long-range attacks, making it so they couldn’t even see their opponents before being trapped here.

All at once, everyone looked towards Ye Xiyue.

Ye Xiyue’s eyes flashed fiercely, she said coldly:

"All disciples wait in the array, all those in the Golden Core Realm follow me out to kill those two beasts!"

Chun Ningzhi immediately stood by her side and said loudly, "I am willing to follow Junior Sister Ye out!"

He is the Senior Brother of Forgetful Peak, his Cultivation has reached Late Golden Core, besides Ye Xiyue who reached Nascent Soul Realm earlier, he is also outstanding among the Commanding Disciples.

Then it was Wei Wan, who quietly walked to Ye Xiyue’s side.

"It’s Senior Sister Wei!"

"Senior Sister Wei has long reached the Golden Core Realm, is that strange?"

"But the second senior sister is so low-key, she rarely shows her cultivation level!"

Just as what those discussing disciples said, Wei Wan has always been low-key and often traveling outside, if not for this beast tide attack, many wouldn’t even know what Realm she was in.

Next were two Inner Sect disciples, who were also famous talents within the sect.

Qin Gengyun was silent for a moment, then slowly stepped out, around him immediately rose exclamations:

"Senior Brother He is at the Golden Core Realm too?"

"Who is he?"

"This is the Divinity Transformation Peak disciple who won the Outer Sect competition, He Zhiqiu!"

"So it’s him, he’s still an Outer Sect disciple, yet he also reached the Golden Core Realm?"

As the crowd marveled, Qiu Zhihe also quietly stepped forward, this time the exclamations grew louder:

"Who is this?"

"So delicate and slim, how come I’ve never seen her?"

"She is Ruo Mei from Danxia Peak, the second place in this year’s Outer Sect competition!"

"This Junior Sister looks so fragile, yet she’s at the Golden Core Realm too?!"

"Are the new people this year so strong?"

Qin Gengyun and Qiu Zhihe exchanged a glance, this moment of stepping out, they shared a tacit understanding.

First, the situation was critical, and only by working together could they survive the crisis.

Second, they needed to timely showcase their value as well, so they could quickly climb into the mid-to-high-level positions within the Zhenyang Sect, allowing them to access more secrets, which would aid them in uncovering a lot of truths.

Mo Xiaolan saw the two stepping forward, she too slowly stepped beside them, once more exclamations arose around:

"Who is this?"

"You don’t know him? He’s the future Prince Consort of the seventh princess of the West Imperial Dynasty!"

"Damn, it’s him? He, a freeloader, reached the Golden Core too?"

Qin Gengyun looked at Mo Xiaolan, smiling: "Junior Brother Lan, congratulations on reaching the Golden Core as well."

Mo Xiaolan also smiled back at him: "Thanks, Senior Brother He."

Just then, cries of surprise erupted, the two turned and were taken aback:

"Susu?"
