"Little one, go back to the room and sleep well. Tomorrow at dawn, I'll come to pick you up,"

Bi Luoyue said softly.

After comforting the child, the four of them left the cave.

The place where Zi Qian lived was right in the back hall of the main pavilion of the Celestial Sword Pavilion. Under the night sky, Qin Yang and his team crossed the rocky mountains, heading towards the main pavilion.

Inside the Celestial Sword Pavilion, a few disciples could occasionally be seen patrolling with lanterns.

With the cover of trees and the night, these patrol disciples were easily avoided by the four.

Behind the wall of a pavilion, Qin Yang's group appeared, their gaze crossing a wide stone plaza. In front, it was the main pavilion of the Celestial Sword Pavilion.

In the main hall, the candlelight was dim, emitting a faint glow.

"It's too quiet here,"

Bi Luoyue suddenly said softly.

"Something feels off,"

Qin Yang glanced around, furrowing his brows. Despite the late hour, such tranquility was indeed peculiar.

"Alright, you and Xing He stay here, while White Crane and I go inside to investigate. If it goes smoothly, the two of us should be able to eliminate him,"

Qin Yang said to Bi Luoyue and the others.

"Alright,"

Bi Luoyue nodded lightly.

"Let's go,"

Qin Yang said, casting a Wind Manipulation Technique on himself and White Crane. Their bodies moved like the wind, crossing the neat stone plaza towards the main pavilion.

However, just as they crossed the plaza and entered the center of the first floor of the main hall, their expressions changed simultaneously.

At that moment, a sharp alarm sounded in the sky above the Celestial Sword Pavilion.

"Is this... an infrared alarm system?"

Qin Yang's eyebrows immediately furrowed. He hadn't expected the Celestial Sword Pavilion to purchase modern security equipment. This type of infrared alarm system emits invisible infrared beams. If any object touches the beams, the alarm system triggers a warning sound.

"Hahaha, thieves! Just as Saffron predicted, you dared to attack the Celestial Sword Pavilion. It was worth purchasing such worldly security equipment for this moment."

Accompanied by a hearty, mocking laugh, two figures flew out from the back hall of the Celestial Sword Pavilion, precisely Zi Qian and Saffron.

"Tsk tsk, I've said it before. This kid holds grudges—if we don't go after him, he'll come for us,"

Beneath the black robe, Saffron raised a face full of sores, her old eyes flickering with a sly, cold light, speaking malevolently.

"Mr. Qin, what should we do?"

White Crane's gaze turned to Qin Yang, not expecting the Celestial Sword Pavilion to be so prepared.

"Forget it, since the ambush failed, we'll just have to deal with you here,"

Qin Yang's expression turned slightly grim, his voice carrying a hint of coldness.

"White Crane, get ready to act,"

Qin Yang said calmly, as green currents began to flow around his hands.

"Haha, to kill us, you'd need the skill,"

Zi Qian sneered, taking a step forward, an inner force transmitting to the stone slab beneath.

Clank! Clank! Clank!

Suddenly, within ten zhang around Qin Yang and White Crane, the stone slabs began to retract, and thick iron pillars, about arm-sized, emerged from the ground. In an instant, they formed a cage with the ceiling, trapping Qin Yang and White Crane inside.

"Wind Blade Technique, go!"

Qin Yang's eyes narrowed slightly, forming seals with his hands. Two Wind Blades shot forward, slashing towards one of the iron pillars of the cage.

Clang! Clang!

The Wind Blade Technique hit the iron pillars, leaving only fine white marks with no significant impact on the thick iron pillars.
