"I am here, and I would like to hear how you make my Tian Mu sect ache in pain."
A sound came from the void, and the instantly captivating voice touched the hearts of everyone present.
In the air between them, an unusual distortion suddenly appeared in space. A huge black hood emerged, followed by a terrifying influx of spiritual power. The various forces in Zhong State that had blocked Yun Chuanchun and the Tian Mu Sect all felt a sudden tightness in their chests.
Next came the sensation of being completely stripped of air around them.
The black hood slowly disappeared, and Li Wu Xin, wearing a black long dress and a gold crown, appeared.
A pair of icy, heterochromatic eyes swept over the crowd, and a dispassionate voice uttered, "Qian Li Sect, Han Feng Valley, Feng Lei Pavilion, Zhen Huo Hall. Well done! All that you owe has arrived, saving me the trouble of seeking you one by one."
"You, you…"
After recognizing Li Wu Xin's appearance, everyone was terrified and their hearts were split open.
For three hundred years, as the Tian Mu Sect gained strength, the forces supported by the Zhong State in Youzhou were continuously eliminated; as the saying goes, "Even a dog is beaten with respect to its owner."
These 'owners,' unable to bear the sight of their own dogs being killed one after another, couldn't hold their tongues. So, one by one, they went to cause trouble for the Tian Mu Sect, but without exception, they were defeated.
Later, many forces from the Zhong State began to form an alliance, intending to destroy the arrogant Tian Mu Sect. However, in the final battle, they were defeated by Liu Wu Xin and left with their weapons and armor scattered, looking like lost strays.
That battle marked the end of all resistance to the Tian Mu Sect on the Zhou Ji Continent, and the name of Liu Wu Xin became a nightmarish specter for many forces in Zhong State.
Time flies, years have passed, and people have gradually forgotten the great battle that took place in the beginning. When they saw the Tian Mu Sect, which they hated so much, suddenly appearing in their Zhong State, everyone present had a mischievous thought and wanted to crush the Tian Mu Sect's morale.
After all, it's their territory...
However, to their great surprise, Liu Wu Xin was also there.
"How, do you not recognize me?"
Liu Wu Xin's heterochromatic eyes suddenly flashed, and the red and blue light erupted with flickers of killing intent. A single glance was enough to terrify everyone present into silence.
The elder who had been leading the group tried to swallow his saliva, mustered his courage, and stepped forward, "Liu Wu Xin, you are acting shamelessly. This is Zhong State, not Youzhou. How dare you come here and act with impunity? Have you asked the Master's Mansion?"
The Master's Mansion is the main ruler of Zhong State, the strongest force in nine provinces. Compared to the Tian Mu Sect, its name and power are much stronger. Even if the entire power of nine provinces were added together, it would still be weaker than the Master's Mansion.
Liu Wu Xin glanced coldly at the old man and said indifferently, "How does my Liu Wu Xin's actions concern others? Master's Mansion? Our Tian Mu Sect has come here to attack Master's Mansion. Since you want to join in the fun, then I will also take care of you as well."
"They actually dare to attack the Master's Mansion? This, how is that possible?"
"The Master's Mansion has the Old Master as its leader, and the Tian Mu Sect is just a demonic sect. How could they dare?"
"It must be the witch's treacherous words swayed the masses. Do not believe him. Let's go to the Master's Mansion to find them and see how long they can continue their arrogance."
...
Under the discussion, the leader raised his voice to say he wanted to go find the Master's Mansion, hoping to intimidate Liu Wu Xin. However, before he could take any action, he saw that the latter's face suddenly changed and she casually waved her hand.
A black shadow flashed across the sky, resembling a thunderstorm. The next moment, the old man's body was severed, blood splattered into the air, and the smell of blood permeated the surroundings.
Fear
Surprise
Panick
A mix of emotions filled the crowd. The notorious female empress of the demonic sect was still as ruthless as before, ready to take a life with a single word. Despite being numerous, they were far inferior to the alliance that had once fought against the Tian Mu Sect.
The ones from that year had not gained any benefits from the Tian Mu Sect, let alone today.
Recalling this, those who had survived from the previous coalition fled in all directions, desperate to keep the lives they had narrowly escaped. They didn't want to lose their hard-earned lives so easily.
Liu Wu Xin coldly scanned the crowd and then waved her hand again. As the black shadow, resembling thunder, swept through, a moment later, several more skilled individuals fell dead on the spot.
The sudden might of the opponent and the desperate escape of their own people caused the once united coalition to scatter like roaches, running for their lives.
"Good"
Seeing this, the Tian Mu Sect members were overjoyed and each of them was eager to pursue and revitalize the glory of their past. However, Liu Wu Xin stopped them.
"Don't pursue them. That was enough. I came here not to kill people."
Liu Wu Xin said indifferently.
Yun Chuanchun and the others nodded slightly, then respectfully stepped forward, "Your Majesty, have you come to save us?"
While speaking, Yun Chuanchun's eyes were filled with anticipation. If Liu Wu Xin nodded, she would consider it as if the other had come specifically for her alone.
Unfortunately, Liu Wu Xin shook her head.
"I came here to strike a warning, to scare these lowlifes."
Her face fell as she heard the words.
"With things settled, there is no need for me to linger here any longer. All of you should return to the sect promptly and ensure that no one takes advantage of the situation..."
Liu Wu Xin instructed with a serious expression on her face.
This statement immediately drew everyone's attention. Yun Chuanchun was taken aback and quickly asked, "Your Majesty, what does your statement mean? You, you are not going to return with us?"
Liu Wu Xin nodded slightly, "I have more important matters to attend to and need to leave Youzhou for two days. Therefore, I must shake them up, these scoundrels who dare to covet my Tian Mu Sect."
As soon as they heard that Liu Wu Xin was leaving, some of the people began to object. As in the past, they wanted to use the excuse of the sect being in danger as a reason for her to stay, but she sternly glared at them with her eyes.
"I am only leaving for two days. If you can't hold on for these two short days, then there is no need for you to come see me."
Liu Wu Xin said coldly, then turned her gaze towards the southeast, Qingzhou direction, murmuring to herself, "Brother, I'm coming to find you now."
Tianzhuang Mountain
The sudden gust of wind subsided. The sword qi that shot straight up into the sky suddenly paused. High above, the clouds scattered, and the remaining clouds whirled into a massive vortex as if something had pierced through them.
Tianzhuang Mountain cracked open, and sword marks covered the entire mountain. The thick smoke and dust lifted by the fierce wind suddenly cleared away, revealing a figure standing firmly in front of Chen Mo and others.
It is Xiao Tianyi.
He had his hands clasped behind his back, looking like a sage with a spiritual aura, with eyes shining brightly. Compared to his arrogance moments ago, he seemed more composed and less arrogant.
Sword qi swirled around him, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes. Xiao Tianyi's injuries had all been healed, as if he had been reborn.
"I never expected that you would know about my other identity. But, just you three? Do you really think you can take me down?"
