Chapter 660: Chapter 629: Righteousness Reaches the Clouds

The veiled woman performed a Water Technique divine power. Although her attack was somewhat lacking in strength, her defense was extremely strong, enough for self-protection in front of True Master Red Fire. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

True Master Red Fire was extremely angry, gritting his teeth, and said, "You vile woman, you’re just as malicious as before."

"Even if I wronged you, whatever issues you have, just come at me."

"Why ambush my junior brother and disturb my senior brother’s Nascent Soul Formation?"

The veiled woman chuckled lightly.

"Oh, Red Fire, you overestimate yourself. Not just you, but even your senior brother Yuan Fire has never crossed my mind."

"It was all just a fleeting game. Those matters from hundreds of years ago, I’ve long forgotten. It’s a shame you’re still a Sect Leader, yet you keep it in your heart!"

"Fire Cloud Sect has no one left if someone like you is in charge. Truly a disgrace to Fire Cloud Sect."

True Master Red Fire’s expression froze.

"So, you accepted a commission to specifically interrupt my senior brother’s Nascent Soul Formation?"

"What else? You’re just as foolish as before!"

"Sect Leader, they are members of the Shadow Assassins!"

A True Pill True Master from Fire Cloud Sect spoke up.

"Shadow Assassins, very well. You secretly joined the Shadow Assassins!"

"If you don’t surrender now, I won’t be polite!"

Red Fire True Master gave a signal with his eyes, and six True Masters of Fire Cloud Sect activated their Spiritual Artifacts, ready to strike.

The veiled woman glanced around, coldly sneering, "Red Fire, you really have no shame! Do you think you’re the only one with helpers? My helpers are far stronger than yours!"

"Your helper, here!"

A True Master from Fire Cloud Sect threw down two cold Demon Sovereign corpses.

The veiled woman snorted coldly, suddenly exerting force, raising waves that unleashed a storm of arrows, forcing back the crimson gold fire dragon.

"Stop watching, come quickly to help me!"

The veiled woman’s gaze turned towards Shen Xuan, who was watching from the side.

True Master Red Dragon retracted his Fire Dragon Sword, looking at Shen Xuan with vigilance.

A battle between a Golden Core True Master and a Holy Pill Demon Sovereign, yet a small cultivator at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment watched on fearlessly and with interest.

This was not in line with common sense.

At this time, a Divine Soul transmission reached Shen Xuan’s ear.

"Fellow Daoist Profound Ice, help me repel them, and I will reward you heavily."

Shen Xuan shook his head, sending his own Divine Soul transmission.

"Fellow Daoist Mingyu, this matter is not easy to handle."

"What’s so difficult about it? To you, these worthless foes are nothing more than rabble."

"True Master Red Fire stated that you ambushed his junior brother and disturbed his senior brother’s Nascent Soul Formation. This is a life-and-death feud, a sect grudge. I cannot afford to provoke this."

"Fellow Daoist Profound Ice, I am willing to reward you with a Fire Technique Golden Core."

Shen Xuan was slightly taken aback.

Golden Core!

This is the most precious possession of a Golden Core True Master.

Whether it be righteous Daoist Sects or evil Demon Sects, all yearn for it.

For Shen Xuan, it was equally something he urgently needed.

With a quick turn of thought, Shen Xuan understood.

It must be the Golden Core of True Master Yanghuo.

Thus, True Master Yanghuo had already been slain by Demon Sovereign Mingyu.

Even the Fire Technique Golden Core had been taken by her.

"I need to receive the Fire Technique Golden Core first."

"Alright. Come over, and I’ll give it to you!"

Shen Xuan nodded.

"Fellow Daoist Su, this place is perilous, you should escape first using Water Escape from the shallow river."

Su Yajing was a Water Cultivator.

For her, escaping through the river using Water Escape was the safest option.

"Alright."

Su Yajing bowed to Shen Xuan.

"Senior Shen, may I know your name and title?"

Shen Xuan smiled slightly, sending a Divine Soul transmission.

"Shen Xuan of Cyan Cloud Sect from Song Country, titled Profound Ice."

"You are True Master Profound Ice?"

Su Yajing’s eyes widened, her mouth agape in disbelief.

"Alright, hurry and go!"

Shen Xuan pointed a finger.

A stream of gentle Water Spiritual Power enveloped Su Yajing, sending her flying onto the surface of the river a few thousand feet away.

Standing on the river, Su Yajing bowed to Shen Xuan once more, then submerged into the water and quickly fled.

"Who are you?"

A True Master from Fire Cloud Sect couldn’t help but shout loudly.

"Are you asking me?"

Shen Xuan took a step forward.

Each step spanning dozens of feet.

The aura on his body surged violently.

The icy cold Profound Ice Cold Qi spread rapidly.

The Spiritual Pressure comparable to a Middle Stage Golden Core forced the Fire Cloud Sect True Masters in front of him to take a few steps back.

Shen Xuan’s figure flickered and vanished from where he stood.

With a Thunder Escape Technique, he stood beside Demon Sovereign Mingyu.

"Ice Technique, Thunder Escape!"

"Who exactly are you!"

True Master Red Fire’s Fire Dragon Sword pointed towards Shen Xuan, ready to attack at any moment.

Shen Xuan ignored True Master Red Fire.

He looked at Demon Sovereign Mingyu.

Demon Sovereign Mingyu promptly handed him a Jade Box.

Shen Xuan scanned it with his Divine Sense, and sure enough, inside was a brilliant, dazzling Fire Technique Golden Core, exuding a thick aura of fire spiritual energy.

He quickly put it away.

Only then did Shen Xuan look at True Master Red Fire.

"Brother Red Fire, I am Profound Ice of the Cyan Cloud Sect."

"You are the Profound Ice True Master of Song Country!"

A Fire Cloud Sect True Master exclaimed in surprise.

Shen Xuan hadn’t expected himself to be so renowned in the Yan Country.

"Fellow Daoist Profound Ice, you might not know. Your defeat of True Master Wisdom Blade from the Dominating Blade Sect has already spread throughout the sects of Yan Country; everyone knows it."

Beside him, Demon Sovereign Mingyu said with a smile.

Shen Xuan suddenly understood.

Although he leveraged the geographic advantage of the East Sea to narrowly defeat the wounded True Master Wisdom Blade, getting away with it by a stroke of luck.

But True Master Wisdom Blade was one of Yan Country’s top-ranking Late-stage Golden Core True Masters.

No matter the reason, True Master Wisdom Blade suffered defeats at the hands of the Spirit Sword True Master and Profound Ice True Master of the Cyan Cloud Sect consecutively.

"Fellow Daoist Profound Ice, you should understand; this person called Mingyu, while appearing as a Demon Sovereign of the Hehuan Sect, in reality, is a Demon Cultivator of the Shadow Assassins. Our Fire Cloud Sect has a deep blood feud with her, irreconcilable!"

"Oh, that’s troublesome."

Shen Xuan said with a bit of regret, "I’ve been friends with Fellow Daoist Mingyu for many years, trustworthy and sincere. As far as I know, Fellow Daoist Mingyu has always cultivated himself with integrity, refraining from doing anything harmful or immoral."
