Fang Che understood perfectly.

He couldn’t let the combat power of the Underworld rise under the desperate momentum.

Because Yin Yunxiao could die at the hands of Feng Yun, but Feng Yun couldn’t die at the hands of Yin Yunxiao.

If he dies, I’m finished too.

Duan Xiyang’s warning, Fang Che hadn’t forgotten.

So he suddenly assumed a ’disinterested stance’ and emerged, and as the only Protector in the field, he naturally drew all the attention, reducing the death-defying power of the Underworld.

With the air deflated and the added embarrassment of having nowhere to turn, their mindset shifted, and the Underworld’s combat power weakened.

Then, with a few words, he dragged Lan Xinxue in, stripping away Yin Yunxiao’s last shred of male pride, pushing him further towards a dead end.

Dongyun Yu’s few words added fuel to the fire, reaching the pinnacle of sarcasm.

After Feng Yun killed someone with one sword, seeing Yin Yunxiao hadn’t yet acted, he simply began insulting the elders of the Underworld!

There was only one goal: to force Yin Yunxiao, to push him to his death!

The best outcome is for them all to commit suicide!

At worst, make him lose his mind and lead the Underworld disciples into action; in such a state of confusion, they would be easy to kill, giving a reason to slaughter them all here!

Because today, the Underworld, during the Yin Yang Realm trial, has offended everyone and is now isolated, with no support!

A heaven-sent opportunity!

Feng Yun’s sword was a killer sword. But the words following that sword were even more piercing than the sword itself!

Once they started, even without assistance, just the two of Feng Yun and Yan Beihan would be enough!

Feng Yun wanted to assert dominance and create a situation where the dead can’t testify, as he had stirred up Qingming Palace; if Yin Yunxiao and his ilk didn’t die, what would happen when the misunderstanding was cleared in the future?

In any case, the Underworld couldn’t be used, so extinguishing them then continually sowing discord among the major mountain gates, was what Feng Yun intended to do.

Yan Beihan also wanted to weaken the Outer World Mountain Sect alliance to prepare for their future eradication, aligning completely with Feng Yun’s goal.

Fang Che shared the same idea as Feng Yun, and moreover, he hoped Yin Yunxiao would die by Feng Yun’s hand, as that would foster enmity between the Underworld and the Wei Wo Zheng Sect, which Fang Che was very eager to see.

For Fang Che, it didn’t matter how they fought, as long as they fought! As long as someone died!

The other Sect’s male disciples, though unable to take action themselves, all wished for Yin Yunxiao’s death, to vent their anger. After all, blood debts were numerous.

The only one entirely clueless throughout, just meddling, but contributing the final fatal blow, was Dongyun Yu, a truly purposeless person.

He merely had the habit of fearing the world wasn’t chaotic enough.

The origin lay in Yin Yunxiao’s sword array.

A blunder, and after proving ineffective, without time for any maneuver, was thoroughly exploited by the various geniuses leading to total annihilation! 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

The schemes within, the various negotiations, the mutual tacit cooperation, the timing, the control over the situation, the judgment of the external great trend, even including the various preparations to be made once out...

It indeed reached the pinnacle of complexity and terror.

To those truly ignorant, it seemed merely a farce, a battle of words, a joke.

Yet, those who could understand it broke out in cold sweat all over.

This was the true Dead End of Jianghu! The inevitable kill!

It just formed like that.

A true dead end is never purely a battle, but a forced engagement with no retreat.

This is Jianghu.

The Underworld disciples had no reason left to retreat; even themselves and their Sect had been insulted into the gutter, not fighting now would leave them no face to face the world!

Only a deadly battle is left!

But just as the Underworld disciples couldn’t resist rushing out for a suicidal assault, the most severely insulted Yin Yunxiao suddenly came to his senses.

Not only did he regain consciousness, but he also immediately realized: today, they had stepped into a dead end.

The opponent could use mere rhetoric to drive all Underworld disciples to death!

So he immediately stopped his brothers from their meaningless sacrifices.

"Don’t be impulsive. If you keep being impulsive, none of us will get out of here alive."

Yin Yunxiao turned to his brothers with a bitter smile.

Feng Yun immediately realized Yin Yunxiao intended to retreat.

His eyes narrowed, and he said lightly, "Yin Yunxiao, chickened out? I truly thought Underworld disciples were all proud bones, what, got insulted to your face, even your ancestral graves are smoking, and you endure it? Truly endure it? Hahaha..."

Words as sharp as swords, each strike reached the heart!

All Underworld disciples trembled violently.

Yin Yunxiao sneered coldly: "Endure it, so what?"

Feng Yun stood with his arms crossed, looking at Yin Yunxiao, his eyes contemptuous and cold, "Broke the rules and merely endured, and it ends like that? Such a cheap matter, truly rare under heavens."

A heavy blow again.

Murderous intent surged wildly in Feng Yun’s eyes; today, he intended to strike fatally.

And Jiang Bihuai had no grounds to retort to this remark.

The others, they still held the same stance: best if the Underworld were wiped out!

Yin Yunxiao’s gaze swept across everyone’s face, each face cold as ice.

Each eye was indifferent.

Isolated, with no help in sight.

His heart chilled completely, body trembling, he suddenly shouted to everyone, "Today’s matter was my idea, all the Heavenly Treasures grabbed by the Underworld, are concentrated with me and got lost due to me, so I wanted to force Feng Yun to hand it over, but failed."

He smiled bitterly, "You all saw, this matter was my idea, my brothers merely cooperated. Having broken the rules of the Yin Yang Realm trial, I, Yin Yunxiao, apologize to you all."
