After Duan Shuang and Gong Yang left, Xu Ping held the exquisite teacup in his hand, murmuring: "An order for expedition, huh..."

On the surface, he would definitely not participate in this matter.

After all, once involved, he will inevitably become the focus of attention, attracting unnecessary trouble and easily fostering hatred.

Though under the joint siege of various forces in Yue Country, those who secretly sided with the Shuize Sect would be like candle flames in the wind, easily uprooted and completely eradicated.

However, the world is unpredictable, and it's inevitable that some will slip through the net and survive.

At that time, if these survivors sought revenge, Xu Ping, with his strength, wouldn't fear them, but it would undoubtedly bring him a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Nonetheless, he could quietly follow in the shadows, see if he can seize some benefits when the timing is right.

"The Song family!"

A chilling glint suddenly flashed in Xu Ping's eyes.

Since the Song family has already appeared on the expedition order issued by the Luoyun Sect, their demise is assured, and they are destined to be unable to escape this calamity.

And he certainly wouldn't miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

On one hand, he currently lacks third-rank Spirit Wood, and on the other, he can personally witness the destruction of his enemies.

"Ah, the Cultivation Realm truly is ever-changing, like fleeting clouds and changing landscapes."

Xu Ping sighed softly, his mood at this moment quite complex.

There is the joy of finally avenging a great feud; yet full of sentiment, as the Cultivation Realm situation changes instantaneously, no one knows what will happen the next moment.

"In this peril-filled Cultivation Realm, only by staying low-key and acting prudently can one stand long-term and have the chance to climb to higher levels."

Xu Ping slightly lifted his head and drank the cooled Spirit Tea in his hand in one go.

...

...

When the Luoyun Sect's expedition order swept across Yue Country like a tempest, the entire country was instantly plunged into chaos.

It was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring waves upon waves, causing mixed reactions among the people.

Some, upon hearing the news, had eyes shining with wild joy, seemingly seeing a perfect opportunity for profit; while others were gripped tightly by fear, panicking like ants on a hot pan.

Longshi Market.

This market, opened and controlled by Shuize Sect, has now become a place of trouble.

Even though the entire Wanzhe Waters is still rampant with malevolent forces, countless Loose Cultivators hurriedly packed up their bags to flee, avoiding being caught in the turmoil.

The major forces unaffiliated with the Shuize Sect also made the decision to withdraw, fearing being dragged into the impending conflict.

Yet, there are always those whose eyes are blinded by greed.

They hold onto luck and choose to stay in Longshi Market, eagerly hoping to seize some benefits in the upcoming chaos.

"Hmph, all are just cowardly and deceitful bunch!"

On the high ground of a luxurious building in Longshi Market, Elder Hao looked down at the scrambling crowd with disdain and madness intertwined in his eyes, the madness deepening in them.

Now the various forces in Yue Country, under Luoyun Sect's pressure, will sooner or later attack Longshi Market.

Though Longshi Market is protected by a quasi-tier three array, Elder Hao knows in his heart that this market will eventually find it hard to fend off the multiple assaults, its downfall is merely a matter of time.

"In that case, let them all stay here!"

The madness in Elder Hao's eyes intensified as he flipped his palm, and a jade-green array control Token appeared in his hand.

Following this, he rapidly formed a magic technique with his hands, slowly infusing a thread of Mana into the Token.

Buzz...

Suddenly, the thin mist enveloping the market rapidly thickened, emanating a powerful wave of Spiritual Power.

Numerous colorful runes swam leisurely within the thick mist like little fish, each carrying extreme danger.

"What's happening?"

"Why has the array of Longshi Market suddenly been fully activated?"

The Loose Cultivators preparing to leave were immediately thrown into chaos, some shouting anxiously.

"Is Shuize Sect insane? Are they planning to trap us all here and completely wipe us out?"

Some quick-witted individuals were suddenly seized by this terrifying thought, their faces full of fear.

"Kill them all, leave no one alive!"

Within the luxurious building, Elder Hao issued a cold command.

Before his words had fallen, seven or eight Foundation Establishment Cultivators behind him flooded out like hungry wolves, charging toward the various cultivator forces in Longshi Market.

At the same time, the Qi Cultivators wearing Shuize Sect's uniform robes also rode their Magical Artifacts, rushing toward the defenseless Loose Cultivators like locusts.

"Ah!"

"Save me!"

...

The tragic screams instantly echoed throughout Longshi Market.

Under the powerful force of the fully activated quasi-tier three array, even the Foundation Establishment Cultivators had their strength forcibly suppressed by at least half, let alone those weaker Qi Cultivators.

In this array-covered area, only those authorized and recognized by Shuize Sect could be unrestricted.

In this way, the cultivators trapped in the array were like fish on a chopping block, waiting to be slaughtered.

Similar bloody scenes also played out in other markets guarded by Shuize Sect.

Shuize Sect's people went on a rampage within the markets, exterminating all existing Foundation Establishment Cultivators with countless Qi Cultivators killed or injured.

Subsequently, they took the resources and treasures they seized, breaking up and fleeing in all directions.
