At the same time.

Black Mountain Sect.

Upon learning the news, the Demon Lord Gongsun Ao immediately issued an order.

"Command the Seventy-two Earthly Fiends to continue surveillance, acting neither rashly nor recklessly. Any anomalies must be immediately reported."

"Yes!"

...

Jiangzhou.

In the bustling city, human voices throng.

The forty-nine guards of Bai Ze finally pinpointed the location of Ancient Life Hall.

But they did not take action immediately; instead, they settled down nearby.

The forty-nine sat cross-legged on an open space, meditating and restoring their spirits.

"These people are seriously sick, blocking the way."

"It's not like they're some film crew."

"Those swords look so real. This film crew is really willing to spend money; the props are so convincing!"

Listening to the bystanders' comments,

Yue Xing said in a deep voice:

"Do not be swayed by the views of the common folk. Our beliefs are different. As long as they do not obstruct our business, avoid conflicts with them at all costs."

"Yes!"

"Once Senior Lu arrives in Jiangzhou, we will break the Sealing Spirit Array."

"Yes!"

The crowd responded in unison.

But to the modern people, these bizarre actions seemed quite amusing.

Just then, a car sped towards them.

"Make way! Quick, make way!"

Vroom!

The car seemed to lose control and charged towards the forty-nine.

"They're done for! The film crew's people are truly brain-dead, not even dodging the car!"

"They're certainly dead!"

Just when everyone thought these people were as good as dead,

Yue Xing suddenly raised his hand.

His robust Inner Essence burst forth fiercely.

It was as if a barrier had materialized right in front of him.

Followed by—

Boom!

The car collided with Yue Xing's palm and then stood still.

Absolute silence fell over the scene.

Faces filled with disbelief gazed at the car and the forty-nine guards of Bai Ze.

Creak.

Creak.

The car emitted faint noises.

Only then did people begin to snap out of their shock—

"Holy mother, is this a movie shoot? Is this really a movie shoot?"

"Run for it! It's like seeing a ghost! It's really like seeing a ghost!"

"Call the police! Quick, call the police!"

Some passersby reported to the police.

Yue Xing didn't understand what calling the police meant and simply swatted the car away with a flick of his hand.

Then he resumed his meditative pose.

"Boss, that metal shell is quite interesting. People can sit inside it, and it runs quite fast, a lot more stable than our horses."

"Forget these distractions, remember our mission."

"Yes!"

Yue Xing closed his eyes again.

But at that moment...

A group of police officers arrived rapidly on the scene, sirens blaring.

"Don't move! Drop your weapons! Surrender immediately!"

"To the people in front, you are surrounded... drop your weapons and surrender immediately!"

Yue Xing opened his eyes and sighed, shaking his head.

He slowly stood up.

"These ordinary people get more foolish with each generation."

After speaking, he lifted his long sword.

His thumb pressed against the hilt, lifting it upward.

Swoosh!

The long sword was unsheathed.

Seeing the sword being drawn,

Voices came from the other side—

"Fire!"

Tut tut tut.

Tut tut tut!

Bang bang bang!

Bullets came flying.

Yue Xing drew his sword to block.

"What a swift Hidden Weapon... Since when did ordinary people become so powerful? The force of this Hidden Weapon is immense, even a Yellow Rank Cultivator might struggle to withstand it!"

Fortunately, he had an ample supply of Inner Essence, quickly blocking the bullets.

For a moment.

All the police officers were startled.

Yue Xing's gaze was stern as he said, "It seems the Hidden Weapons are spent... Brothers, now that someone stands in our way, what should we do?"

"Kill."

"Good... Follow me, kill!"

...

Ancient Life Hall.

After diagnosing the last patient, Fang Yu let out a long breath of murky air.

The patients dispersed.

The Ancient Life Hall grew quiet.

"Mr. Fang's Medical Skill is truly astonishing..." Song Gusheng spoke admiringly, "I didn't expect this small Golden Needle to have such an effect."

Fang Yu smiled slightly and said, "It's nothing."

"Mr. Fang's Inner Essence seems quite profound, but... what I don't understand is, aren't you afraid of depleting your Inner Essence by treating people like this? If you encounter a formidable enemy at this time, wouldn't it be dangerous?" Every time Song Gusheng treated someone, he would retain half of his Inner Essence for this very reason.

"From risking one's life, one finds a path to survival. I'm a person who likes to take risks," replied Fang Yu indifferently.

He couldn't possibly tell Song Gusheng that he was in the process of Cultivation.

In fact.

The Divine Dragon Technique was circulating rapidly within Fang Yu's body, and the Leaving Dust Energy was also recovering at the fastest speed.

By entering the path through Medicine, expenditure becomes growth.

"Report..."

A Disciple rushed in from outside the door, saying anxiously, "Bad news... A massacre has occurred on a nearby street... Many people are dead, said to have been killed by some sword-carrying individuals."

"Hmm?" Song Gusheng voiced in puzzlement, "What were they wearing?"

"Gray robes, uniform swords..."

"Bai Ze's people!" Song Gusheng declared confidently.

Upon hearing this.

Fang Yu asked in confusion, "They've already brought the patients this swiftly? Quite efficient... But why would they kill?"

"I don't know... It seems there was a conflict with the police. Blood is everywhere in the street."

Song Gusheng frowned slightly.

"Li Xuan and I both come from Bai Ze, and know that Bai Ze generally does not kill lightly... Yet this time..."

Before he could finish.

Fang Yu stood up with hands behind his back and said, "Those who come with bad intentions... knowing this is my territory and still causing trouble... Over the years, Bai Ze's wings have indeed grown quite stiff."

"This... Mr. Fang, please calm your anger," Song Gusheng said with an embarrassed face.

"Doctor Song, don't blame me for not warning you... You'd better pray these people from Bai Ze are not here to trouble me... Otherwise, even if the King of Heaven came, I might not agree to treat them."

Having said that.

Fang Yu turned and left.

Just as he stepped outside the hall.

A thunderous shout came from outside the gate—

"Song Gusheng, Li Xuan... criminals from Bai Ze, aren't you coming out to receive your punishment?"

The voice contained powerful Inner Essence, making ears uncomfortable.

At this moment, Li Xuan descended slowly onto the rooftop, like a shadow, like a breeze.

"Mr. Fang... Bai Ze's people are here, it has nothing to do with you... You just go," Li Xuan stood in front of him.

However...

Before he could leave, the door was shattered by a powerful force.

Boom!

A group of about forty or fifty people, dressed in gray robes and carrying long swords, stood in front of Ancient Life Hall.

Li Xuan's eyes widened at the sight of the elder in black brocade with grizzled hair, and immediately knelt down and said, "Li Xuan pays his respects to Elder Lu!"

The man was none other than one of the two Xuanming Generals, Lu Qinghong.

Standing next to Lu Qinghong was the captain of the Guard Team, Yue Xing.

Yue Xing said, "Li Xuan, you've hidden yourself quite deep... Where did you get this weak formation? It can block us, but can it block Lord Lu?"

Li Xuan was dripping with cold sweat.

Yue Xing glanced around, and upon seeing Fang Yu standing beside Li Xuan, he arrogantly said, "Who are you, not kneeling upon seeing Lord Lu?"

Fang Yu's brows furrowed.

He recognized these people as from Bai Ze.

After all, Bai Ze is one of the Seventy-two Sects under the Five Great Divine Palaces!

"Are you... of the Supreme Heavenly Position, Lu Qinghong?"

"How daring! You are not worthy to speak Lord Lu's name!" Yue Xing shouted sternly.
