Shi Xueqing’s eyes seemed to spit fire as she clenched her teeth and said, “Kong Yuandai, stop making your sarcastic comments. In this Immortal Gate Conference, it’s either you die or I perish!”

Kong Yuandai’s expression gradually turned cold, “That’s exactly what I wanted to say, but Shi Xueqing, it seems you still haven’t figured it out. I am now Mr. Yuan’s person, but you can only cling to the Yu Family who can hardly even protect themselves. With what do you plan to fight me?”

Shi Xueqing was startled by her words and then glanced at Yuan Zongfeng in the distance, her expression on her face gradually becoming solemn.

The Yuan Family of Jibei!

They were a renowned existence among the Hidden Immortal Sects.

Even more historically profound and influential than the Yu Family.

Especially this Yuan Zongfeng, who was ranked third on the Jade List!

Mr. Xue… Could he defeat the Yuan Family?

A flicker of uncertainty crossed Shi Xueqing’s heart as she stole a glance at Xue An.

Kong Yuandai also noticed this scene and her heart stirred.

Could it be… that Shi Xueqing’s reliance was not on the Yu Family, but on this man?

But this man seemed utterly unremarkable!

Just then, the heir of the Golden Lion Tower stepped forward, shouting at Hui Nian, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation in the corner, “Hui Nian, you bald donkey, come out and meet your death!”

Hui Nian slowly opened his eyes.

The heir of the Golden Lion Tower, named Jin Yulou, was a Half-step Loose Immortal.

At this moment, Jin Yulou’s face was full of rage, because at the last Immortal Gate Conference, his own younger brother had been turned to dust by a punch from Hui Nian, leaving not even a bone behind.

Hui Nian nodded, “So it’s the young master of the Golden Lion Tower. Do you wish to fight with me?”

“Nonsense, come here and die, bald donkey!” said Jin Yulou, his face filled with the intent to kill.

Without further words, Hui Nian stood up and walked to the center of the stage.

The crowd thought to themselves, it has begun!

Jin Yulou looked at Hui Nian, who carried a giant rock on his back, and scoffed, “Hui Nian, put down that rock now, so others won’t say I’m bullying you!”

Hui Nian shook his head, “There’s no need, to deal with you… I don’t need to take such measures!”

Jin Yulou’s face turned purple with rage at these words, “You damn monk, die!”

With that, Jin Yulou kicked out.

The Golden Lion Tower’s leg techniques were unparalleled in the world.

This kick was even faster than the sound of the wind.

But Hui Nian did not dodge or evade, directly taking Jin Yulou’s kick head-on.

Jin Yulou’s face showed a trace of triumph, thinking that with this kick, Hui Nian would either die or be crippled.

However, to his surprise, upon impact, Jin Yulou felt as if his kick had struck a steel plate, and his ankle broke instantly.

As Jin Yulou stood in pain and astonishment, Hui Nian lowered his gaze, “I have offended you.”

He then threw a punch.

Boom!

Jin Yulou couldn’t dodge in time, and the punch sent him flying. By the time he hit the ground, he was already breathless and dead.

Many onlookers gasped in shock.

Especially the disciples of the various Immortal Gates, all with their pupils slightly contracted.

“This monk is incredible, he has already cultivated the Arhat Golden Body!” The White Dragon Elder remarked to himself, warily.

After killing Jin Yulou with one punch, Hui Nian then returned to the corner and sat down cross-legged once more.

At this moment, the Taiji Immortal Master from the Taiji Tower approached the stage, giving the Yu Family a sinister smile.

“Yu Ming, let me experience your Sword Intent!”

All eyes turned to Yu Ming.

Many wanted to see what Yu Ming would choose.

After all, it was clear to everyone that with his current injuries, entering the battle would likely bring more harm than good!

But Yu Ming did not even hesitate and walked straight to the stage. Facing the Taiji Immortal Master, whose face was full of cunning triumph, Yu Ming slowly said, “Last time you were defeated by my sword, and this time it will be the same!”

Taiji Immortal Master felt disdain in his heart.

Injured, but still so defiant.

“No point in talking further, let the fists reveal the truth!” With that, the Taiji Immortal Master waved his hands.

A Taiji pattern faintly appeared in the air.

And Yu Ming slowly drew his sword, his face taut as he watched his opponent.

“Taiji Chaos!” the Taiji Immortal Master shouted lightly, pushing his hands forward.

The black and white energies swirled towards Yu Ming.

Yu Ming didn’t dodge or avoid it, instead, he swung his sword.

Sword Qi surged, shredding the Taiji pattern formed by the black and white energies.

But this was just the beginning. Taiji was about using softness to overcome strength, so the faster Yu Ming’s sword moved, the faster the Taiji pattern appeared.

A moment later, Yu Ming’s face turned pale.

The Taiji Immortal Master sneered in his heart, knowing that Yu Ming’s sword momentum was waning and that with a bit more effort, he could definitely cut him down.

Therefore, he suddenly bellowed, summoning all his energy, and the Taiji pattern drastically expanded more than twice in size.

It seemed about to swallow Yu Ming whole.

Just then, a faint voice echoed in Yu Ming’s ear, “Lower the sword tip by two inches and three parts, tilt it to the right by twenty-one degrees.”

Yu Ming was startled, recognizing the voice as Xue An’s.

Then, he subconsciously adjusted his sword stance according to Xue An’s instructions.

Pfff!

It was as if he handed himself over, while the Taiji Immortal Master’s Taiji Chaos could have killed Yu Ming, he himself would have been pierced through the heart.

Thus, the Taiji Immortal Master reluctantly withdrew his attack at the last moment, preparing to strike again.

At that time, Xue An’s voice rang out once more, “Step forward half a step, blade leftward, slash down!”

Without hesitating, Yu Ming stepped forward half a step, blade leftward, and swung down.

Pfff!

The Taiji Immortal Master screamed in agony and hastily retreated.

Looking again, one of his arms had been chopped off by Yu Ming’s sword.

Xue An sighed inwardly; Yu Ming’s action was still a fraction of a second too slow.

If he had followed his instructions completely, the Taiji Immortal Master’s head would have already ‘moved house.’

But this one strike was enough to shock everyone present.

No one expected Yu Ming, who was previously at a disadvantage, to actually turn defeat into victory!

Only a few, like Hui Nian, slightly furrowed their brows, then glanced at Xue An, intentionally or not.

Taiji Immortal Master’s face was now ashen, but defeat was defeat. He could only bow begrudgingly, “Worthy of being from the Yu family’s sword! I take my leave!”

With that, the people from Taiji Tower left.

This maneuver also quelled the thoughts of many who were eager to take action against the Yu family.

Yu Ming looked at Xue An gratefully; this proud young man had truly submitted.

The Immortal Sect congress began with one death and one injury, its severity surpassing any of the previous ones.

Many people’s faces turned pale.

And just then, the Murderous Prince from Shura Island slowly made his way to the stage, locking eyes with Shi Xueqing, a flash of interest in his gaze.

He then unfolded his fan with a light laugh, “I’ve long heard that the captivating artistry of Fanjing Mountain Lingying Palace is unmatched in this era. I wonder if today, I might be fortunate enough to witness it.”

Shi Xueqing’s expression soured.

Shura Island was no easy opponent, a Sect standing alone overseas, with most of its members being cruel and bloodthirsty.

But since she had been challenged, if she did not step up, Lingying Palace’s reputation would be utterly ruined.

Biting her lip, Shi Xueqing was about to take the stage.

Just then, Xue An gently patted her shoulder, “Stand down!”
