[In an instant, you flew into a rage. With your ascended Hidden Demon Profound Body and the strength of the Carefree Realm, you slapped him away with a single palm, sending him out of the Guardian Mansion.]

[Jiang Yi, driven by the Divine Blood Sect, advanced rapidly in cultivation. But so what, could he surpass Song Chai Xin who relied solely on his own efforts all along?]

[However, this unexpected incident also awakened you.]

[If the entire Wutong Jianghu rises against Song Brahman Mirror, then letting her stay in Black Mountain City, if she is exposed one day, she will undoubtedly become the target of everyone's wrath.]

[Moreover, if her grievances cannot be washed away, it will only become darker in the future, making it even harder for the truth to be revealed to the world.]

[So, how to find a way to break through the situation?]

[Your mind raced rapidly.]

[Soon, three people emerged in your thoughts.]

[Pei Nanbei, the Master of Baoping State, Demon Hunter General Ye Cang, and... the Baiyujing Lord, Yang Xiu, whom you had only met once!]

[If the Jianghu could condemn Song Brahman Mirror.]

[Then the Great Zhao Government Office in Baoping State could clear her name!]

[Thus, you made up your mind, deciding to set off for Wutong Prefecture, to find the former Demon Hunter, Xiang Zhulu, hoping to use his connections to actively contact the Fourth Step Master who previously went to Yunluan Mountain to hunt down the Master of Great Snow Mountain.]

[You brought the incognito Song Brahman Mirror to Wutong Prefecture.]

[For caution's sake, upon arriving at Wutong Prefecture, you arranged for Song Brahman Mirror to stay with the Xie Family and met your grandfather Xie Qiaoxuan, solemnly declaring your intent to marry Song Brahman Mirror and explaining the entire situation to him.]

[Yet these words left Xie Qiaoxuan utterly shocked.]

[Even though Song Brahman Mirror is a Third Step practitioner, in front of her, Xie Qiaoxuan, who had high hopes for you, expressed his disapproval of your decision for the first time: "The right or wrong doesn't matter!"]

["But now the situation is so heated, with Miss Song becoming the target of public outrage, following her means plunging into the fire pit!"]

["Moreover... marrying her would mean the entire Wutong Jianghu would hunt you down!"]

[As one of the prominent families in Wutong Prefecture, Xie Qiaoxuan was naturally well aware of the Yunluan Mountain incident.] 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

[Furthermore, within Wutong, the two prominent families and one orthodox sect, Wutong Li Clan, Wutong Qiao Family, along with Qingshui Building, all had Celestial Pride who died at Yunluan Mountain, harboring intense killing intent towards her.]

[Such animosity in Wutong Prefecture alone, not to mention the many others invited to Yunluan Mountain?]

[All these grievances fell on Song Brahman Mirror, and he feared you might get caught in it, leading to an untimely end, with your peerless potential flowing away in vain.]

[But you were no longer the Song Chai Xin who drifted with the tide.]

[Grateful for your grandfather Xie Qiaoxuan's kind reminder, you still followed your own path with unwavering determination.]

[Thus, you went alone to the Prefecture Demon Hunting Department and met Xiang Zhulu.]

[He was still clad in Suanni Armor, in his prime, full of ambition. He showed no surprise at your arrival but expressed sincere admiration for the ups and downs you've experienced in recent months:]

["Back when you went with Ruan Xiuxiu to cut down your half-brother, I knew you weren't destined for an ordinary future."]

["But I never thought... you would be so bold."]

[Xiang Zhulu's face was complex as he handed over a Jade Talisman and a letter of command: "I've heard about the situation, and I know a bit more than outsiders."]

["And you, wherever you go, people value you."]

["Now, because of Song Brahman Mirror's matter, there's an uproar outside, countless people pointing fingers, calling her a white-eyed wolf, a monster in disguise, with a heart of a wolf."]

["But you're the only one, unshakeable, making even the Demon Hunter General and the Baiyujing Lord speak for you."]

["The Demon Hunter General says Pei Nanbei, the State Lord, wouldn't misjudge people."]

["The Baiyujing Lord says his Orthodox Fist Dao wouldn't choose a hypocrite who distorts right and wrong."]

["Both of them knew you were coming, so before leaving in a hurry, they left behind two things for me to manage on their behalf."]

[Xiang Zhulu pointed at a Jade Talisman and a letter of command.]

[After being taken away by the Master of Great Snow Mountain, you were worried about the attitudes of the two Fourth Step experts, which is why you sought refuge but dared not bring Song Brahman Mirror.]

[Unexpectedly, the barely acquainted Ye Cang and the less familiar teacher Yang Xiu personally investigated the Yunluan Mountain affair and trusted you, all of which touched you deeply.]

[You acquired 'Yang Xiu's Communication Jade Talisman.']

[You acquired the 'Command of the Baoping General.']

["Where are General Ye and the City Lord Yang?" Taking over the tokens from Xiang Zhulu, you curiously asked.]

[To your surprise, Xiang Zhulu's expression turned grave:]

["Originally, the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall had three City Heads, guarding the Northwest Wilderness."]

["They were 'Cyan Nether City,' 'Celestial Heaven,' and 'Baiyujing.'"]

["Among them, the Master of Celestial Heaven, Wei Wenshan, originally a Half-Demon at the end stage of the Great Demon Hunter Master, struggled through hardships to climb to his position. Yet, one night not long ago, he had three thousand 'Celestial Heaven' Demon Suppression Martial Soldiers shed their armor, then personally ambushed and killed the City Lord of 'Cyan Nether City,' shaking the entire Baoping!"]
