If he were Qin Cultivator, would he be willing to make a wedding dress for someone else and keep it a secret?

This thought elicited a hint of murderous intent in Xu Guang's heart.

Qin Cultivator must die!

Only with Qin Cultivator's death can the exposure of this matter be delayed for a long time.

He thought about the message Zhuge Wuliang brought him before entering the Bronze Blood Gate.

A woman named Ye Xihan helped an old friend send him a message: 'Qin Cultivator might know of your existence, be extra careful.'

Old friend? Where did I have an old friend in Jizhou?

He couldn't figure out who had informed him, so he simply stopped thinking about it; the urgent matter was to kill Qin Cultivator first.

He had clearly seen the previous battle between Zhuge Wuliang and Qin Cultivator; Qin Cultivator possessed a coffin that held two stages of Nirvana corpses, through which he could unleash the power of two stages of Nirvana.

'Thinking long-term, Qin Cultivator wouldn't directly say anything and give up the Emperor's inheritance; he probably would find a way to enter the Bronze Blood Gate once more.'

Xu Guang considered the resources and connections he currently could control and utilize.

"What are you thinking about?"

Yuan Shuang's words interrupted Xu Guang's thoughts.

"Nothing... Sorry, Senior Sister, receiving this news suddenly made my mind a bit chaotic, please don't blame me, Senior Sister."

"Now, can you tell me what you encountered inside? Did you bring out that Bronze Sword from inside?" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

After a moment of silence, Xu Guang nodded. Regarding many things on Da Xue Mountain, there were still some unclear aspects, and this was an opportunity to ask Yuan Shuang.

Yuan Shuang was his current Guardian, and it was difficult to bypass her in some matters.

Moreover, her strength was obviously above Huan Songzi, capable of helping him kill Qin Cultivator.

Thus, he laid out the situations he encountered on Da Xue Mountain, including the power to control the Divine Soul and the suppression of the revolt on Da Xue Mountain with the white mist talisman.

He even shared his speculation about the shadow of the giant corpse he saw deep within the crevice of the glacier.

Yuan Shuang fell into contemplation.

"In a few days, follow me to meet my master."

The matter stirred by Xu Guang and Zhuge Wuliang seemed quite serious, and she suddenly realized that she might be overwhelmed as well; with Heavenly Martial True King absent, she could only ask her master Lingchuan Saint for help.

Xu Guang hesitated a bit.

"Actually, there's no need to be overly concerned; over the years, many people have personally entered the Death Buddha Country left by Emperor Shitian, and many survived. Even if someone truly covets Emperor Shitian's inheritance, it won't immediately target you because, firstly, your strength is inadequate, and secondly, you're the direct apprentice of the Saint from the North Polar Six Schools."

Yuan Shuang glanced at Xu Guang and said.

His disposition was cautious, but the things he did... were truly reckless.

If Xu Guang knew Yuan Shuang's evaluation of him, he would probably be speechless; this matter wasn't something he had deliberately instigated, though the Bronze Blood Gate was bizarre, who would have expected such a massive hidden danger within?

...

When Yuan Shuang left, Xu Guang finally met General Wei.

The big fellow was quite worried about him, but fortunately, Xu Guang returned. It recounted the process of Yuan Shuang brutally suppressing it, with a hint of defiance in its eyes.

"She should be stronger than your father."

General Wei stopped complaining.

General Wei, capable of bending and stretching, wouldn't argue with a woman.

Xu Guang found it somewhat amusing.

He took out the Bronze Blood Sword; according to Yuan Shuang, this sword had already absorbed his Qi and began to harmonize with his spirit, making Refinement not difficult.

The sword bore an intense aura of ominousness, with a stunning murderous air above. Such murderous air couldn't be nurtured by killing dozens or hundreds of people; the souls that perished under this sword must be a number unimaginable to an ordinary person.

"A fine vicious weapon!"

This was a Magical Treasure for a Qi Refiner, but its material was unknown, incredibly hard, making it also suitable as a close-combat Divine Weapon.

This time, though perilous and fraught with endless consequences, Xu Guang also obtained considerable opportunities.

Comprehending a true Martial Dao essence, obtaining a Bronze Blood Sword of unknown grade, and discovering an elusive clue about the extraordinary advancement for Qi Refiners.
