The two people stood at the door, exchanged glances, and watched the dramatic change unfolding inside.

Xuan Ye seemed to be in a trance, continuously staring at Hua Wuqing.

"I, I did all this just to lure you out.

Why did you appear so quickly?

No, that’s not right, something must be wrong."

Xuan Ye kept talking, contemplating, and muttering to himself.

"This must be a dream, this must be a dream. I haven’t finished poisoning the villagers, nor have I claimed the position of the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch. How could you have appeared first?"

Feng Zhi listened in disbelief as he confessed.

She was about to speak.

Suddenly, a presence approached from behind, covering her mouth.

She looked up and was met with a familiar pair of eyes.

Following this, Feng Zhi complied obediently.

Su Yan glanced at the newcomer.

The Palace Master of Fengyue Palace, Feng Wuxin.

Judging by Feng Zhi’s demeanor, the two seemed very familiar and acquainted.

Then, Su Yan blinked.

Feng Wuxin, Feng Zhi.

Fengyue Palace.

Recalling how Feng Zhi casually handled ten thousand taels of silver without batting an eyelid.

She was wearing the martial arts treasure, Soft Armor.

No wonder, she was the young lady of Fengyue Palace.

Feng Wuxin’s daughter.

Then, attention shifted back to Xuan Ye.

What surprised Su Yan was that he actually recognized Hua Wuqing.

Listening to Xuan Ye’s muttering.

Killing Hua Wuqing had practically become Xuan Ye’s obsession.

For this, he didn’t mind sacrificing everyone else.

He mumbled to himself, pacing in place and repeating endlessly.

Until the Sect Master of Feiyan Sect couldn’t stand it anymore.

"Xuan Ye! Surrender."

As the words fell, they pulled Xuan Ye out of his thoughts.

Xuan Ye looked up, gazed at the surrounding crowd, then looked at Hua Wuqing.

He opened his mouth, pointing at Hua Wuqing.

"It’s you! It must be! You’re actually still alive, today, I’ll perish together with you!!"

Hua Wuqing did not recognize Xuan Ye, but Xuan Ye did recognize Hua Wuqing.

Years ago, Hua Wuqing challenged the strong ones in Jianghu.

Xuan Ye, ambitious, wanted to kill Hua Wuqing by his own hand to become a legend in Jianghu.

However, when he managed to locate Hua Wuqing and declare war.

All Hua Wuqing asked was one question.

"Who are you?"

He replied.

"Xuan Ye"

Then, Hua Wuqing brushed past him.

Leaving behind a remark.

"I don’t know you."

From then on, those words became a pain in Xuan Ye’s heart.

Even though he became the Sect Leader.

Still, as long as he hadn’t competed with Hua Wuqing, he lived in that shame.

Day after day, repeatedly.

Eventually, he went mad.

To see Hua Wuqing again and kill him personally, he didn’t care about sacrificing anyone!

And now, despite his flawless plan.

Waiting for him to ascend to the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch, most people in that village would be dead.

Such brutal acts would finally be blamed on the Demon Sect.

By then, he could lead the strong ones in Jianghu to attack the Demon Sect.

Of course, he knew, back then Hua Wuqing had kept all the strong ones in Jianghu on the Demon Sect’s mountain.

But, that was years ago.

Because he unintentionally discovered the cultivation technique Hua Wuqing practiced, the stronger it got, the closer to death he approached. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

In recent years, rumors of Hua Wuqing’s death had circulated.

Xuan Ye knew the day he waited for had come.

But he never expected.

One day, Hua Wuqing would suddenly appear before him.

Disrupting all his plans!
