As the violent power erupted from Wang Yu’s palm, Yan Yu’s entire body involuntarily collapsed, and at this moment, everyone around displayed a look of terror in their eyes, with mouths slightly agape, then exclaimed in shock:

"Yan Yu, Senior Brother Yan was actually killed by Wang Yu!?"

"We must avenge Senior Brother Yan! Make Wang Yu, this murderer, pay with his life!"

The people of Qingyu Sect now looked at Wang Yu with eyes full of hatred, while Wang Yu, in contrast, showcased a look of indifference.

Just as Wang Yu killed Yan Yu, Elder Mo was fighting with Li Bin and Liu You when their eyes showed a flash of horror, heads turned slightly, and saw Yan Yu’s lifeless body on the ground.

Upon seeing this, hatred immediately welled up in their eyes, fixing Wang Yu with a cold gaze, they said coldly to him:

"Little brat, how dare you kill our Qingyu Sect’s chief disciple!? Fine, prepare to face the wrath of Qingyu Sect!"

Just as the Qingyu Sect elders said this, a keen look flashed in Elder Mo’s eyes, his palm instantly increasing in strength, unleashing a violent force.

"Audacious! I want to see who can harm the Young Master with me here!"

With Elder Mo’s added strength, they clearly felt mounting pressure, and without the will to fight, after exchanging a glance, they nodded, feigned a move, and jumped back to distance themselves from Elder Mo.

Elder Mo seeing their reaction, couldn’t help but furrow his brows slightly, with grave concern in his eyes.

Li Bin, looking toward Elder Mo and Wang Yu, spoke icily:

"Little brat, for the treasure and blood feud from today, our Qingyu Sect will surely repay!"

Having said this, they led the Qingyu Sect members quickly retreating, while Wang Yu watched them with a trace of disdain. Truth be told, Wang Yu was unworried about their threats, knowing he was the City Lord’s son, not easily bullied by others.

Wang Yu was indifferent to their words, and as Elder Mo heard this, he furrowed his brows, a look of grave concern in his eyes, ready to chase after them.

Seeing Elder Mo’s actions, Wang Yu slightly knitted his brows, and stopped Elder Mo, pausing for a moment, then said:

"Elder Mo, no need. They can’t accomplish anything earth-shattering. Now that the Treasure Map is ours, once we receive Sirius’s legacy, Qingyu Sect is insignificant to us!"

Upon hearing Wang Yu’s words, Elder Mo nodded slightly, thoughts in his eyes, while Wang Yu looked at the Treasure Map with excitement, mouth curled, exclaiming:

"Elder Mo, in just a few days, our City Lord Mansion will become the strongest in the vicinity; it’s not impossible for us to become the strongest force in the entire Divine Realm..."

Upon hearing Wang Yu’s words, Elder Mo nodded twice, paused, then said to Wang Yu:

"The Young Master is right, then our City Lord Mansion will surely establish its footing in the entire Divine Realm!"

While they were conversing, Ding Fan had quietly slipped away. Due to his formidable skills and mastery in the Art of Concealment, no one noticed Ding Fan’s presence.

Soon, Ding Fan returned to the vicinity of the auction house. Seeing the familiar scene, a smile slowly spread across his lips, and in a flash, he appeared.

In just a breath’s time, Ding Fan slipped inside the auction house, where Xia Ling anxiously awaited his return. Seeing Ding Fan come back, her eyes lit up with joy, and she instantly darted toward Ding Fan.

"Brother Ding, are you alright?"

Hearing Xia Ling’s words, Ding Fan had a trace of helplessness in his eyes, slightly curling his lips, and said:

"Do I look like I’m in trouble?"

Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, relief washed over Xia Ling’s face, her lips curling slightly, and she exclaimed joyfully:

"Brother Ding, did you succeed?"

Upon hearing Xia Ling’s words, Ding Fan slightly curled his lips, paused, and slowly said:

"Succeeded!"

Hearing Ding Fan’s words, a wave of joy surged in Xia Ling’s eyes and she excitedly said:

"Brother Ding, you’re amazing!"

After glancing around, Ding Fan noticed the girl from the Hundred Beasts Sect standing by Xia Ling’s side. Seeing this, Ding Fan frowned slightly, eyes flickering, then spoke to Xia Ling:

"Xia Ling, are you really going to take her with you?"

At this moment, Xia Ling was startled by Ding Fan’s words, but quickly reacted, paused briefly, and then said softly to Ding Fan:

"Brother Ding, don’t you want to?"

Ding Fan, hearing Xia Ling’s words, slightly twitched his lips, paused for a moment, and then said slowly to Xia Ling:

"Not really, but I always feel this Hundred Beasts Sect girl seems a bit odd..."

While speaking, Ding Fan’s eyes appraised the body of the Hundred Beasts Sect girl, and Xia Ling, observing Ding Fan, felt a mix of shyness and annoyance. Her eyes slightly sharpened, and she spoke angrily to Ding Fan:

"Brother Ding, what are you trying to do!?"

Upon hearing Xia Ling’s words, Ding Fan’s face turned a bit red, his lips curled into an awkward smile, and he said softly to Xia Ling:

"Xia Ling, it’s not safe to stay here long, we should leave quickly!"

Listening to Ding Fan’s words, Xia Ling sensibly nodded, paused briefly, and then followed behind Ding Fan.

As Ding Fan watched Xia Ling following him, a slight chance appeared at the corner of his lips, and his figure swiftly flashed out.

Before long, Ding Fan and Xia Ling arrived in a valley, surrounded by lush forests. Only then did Ding Fan’s vigilance slightly relax. Observing the surroundings, he slightly curled his lips and said slowly to Xia Ling:

"Xia Ling, where are we?" 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Xia Ling’s eyes showed a trace of confusion as she looked around and replied slowly to Ding Fan:

"Brother Ding, although I am from the Divine Realm, I am not particularly familiar with most things here, so I don’t know where we are."

After hearing Xia Ling’s words, Ding Fan nodded thoughtfully and then said softly to Xia Ling:

"Xia Ling, tell me honestly, is this Hundred Beasts Sect girl especially important to you?"

Xia Ling was momentarily astonished by Ding Fan’s question, her eyes flickered slightly, and she spoke softly to Ding Fan:

"Brother Ding, since you’re asking, I’ll tell you the truth. I was once also a disciple of the Hundred Beasts Sect..."

Hearing Xia Ling’s words, Ding Fan’s eyes immediately widened in disbelief, eyes flickered slightly, and he said in shock to Xia Ling:

"You were also a disciple of the Hundred Beasts Sect? So the Hundred Beasts Sect really was destroyed?"

Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Xia Ling’s eyes showed a hint of hatred, her eyes flickered slightly, and she said softly to Ding Fan:

"Brother Ding, you are right. The Hundred Beasts Sect was indeed swallowed up by an extremely powerful force. Their power was terrifying, destroying the once-flourishing Hundred Beasts Sect overnight, it was simply horrifying..."

Hearing Xia Ling’s words, Ding Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly, he pondered momentarily, and then said slowly to Xia Ling:

"Since the Hundred Beasts Sect has been annihilated, why did you join the Heavenly Sound Sect and conceal your identity?"

Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Xia Ling’s eyes also narrowed slightly, her lips trembled slightly, and she said slowly to Ding Fan:

"Because I found out that those of us disciples who survived were all mysteriously dealt with. After discovering this, I dared not reveal my identity, or it would lead to a manhunt!"

Hearing this, Ding Fan’s eyes showed maniacal shock, his eyes flickered slightly, and he said slowly to Xia Ling:

"It seems this mysterious force is specifically targeting the Hundred Beasts Sect. But still, will you always keep this Hundred Beasts Sect girl by your side?"

Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Xia Ling’s eyes showed a solemn expression, her eyes flickered slightly, and she seriously said to Ding Fan:

"Yes, she is my sister, I cannot abandon her! Moreover, the soul capturing technique from the auction is too rudimentary, it cannot truly control the Hundred Beasts Sect people completely!"

Upon hearing this, Ding Fan’s eyes showed maniacal shock, his eyes flickered slightly, and he said softly to Xia Ling:

"If she can be restored, it would indeed be a good thing..."

Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Xia Ling nodded lightly, then quickly raised her head to look in Ding Fan’s direction, eyes filled with an expression of delight.
