After receiving the "Netherworld Scroll" from his good friend, the Evil God, Tang Fei devoted himself wholeheartedly to learning and comprehending this swordsmanship.

Firstly, because he and this sword manual are naturally compatible, and the sinister, eerie sword techniques match the Yin Yang Qi he acquired from the Ghost Prison...

It gives off that ghostly fire youth vibe of wild, flashy, and arrogant absurdity.

His body always feels a cold and fulfilling sensation, like being soaked in a thousand-year-old cold pond.

Much like his inner self.

Secondly, because he has the guidance of a renowned master. Great Grandmaster Xuanyuan Mingjing had long noticed that the "Netherworld Scroll" he practiced followed an evil cult route, so he specially took him to the Ghost Prison, gave him face-to-face teachings, letting him cultivate through killing, rapidly improving.

A great teacher can adapt teaching to the student's talent; a mediocre teacher merely laments 'a hopeless case cannot be carved'.

Now, Tang Fei has already comprehended the first six swords of the "Netherworld Scroll".

The first sword, Undying.

The second sword, Fearless.

The third sword, Death-bound.

The fourth sword, Dragon Slayer.

The fifth sword, Yama.

And now the sixth sword, Yellow Spring.

The "Fengdu Chronicles" states: Yellow Spring is not water, but the sediment of the everlasting obsession of myriad ghosts, sword technique Tongyou invites doom.

Sword Qi transforms into the nine-bends Nether River, sword momentum like the reverse flow of Yellow Spring.

Those hit by the sword will have their three souls eroded and seven ethereal souls sink.

This exactly aligns with the sword intent of the "Netherworld Scroll".

Tang Fei swung a sword, and the mouth of the black Evil Dragon let out a mournful roar, voluntarily leaping toward the nine blazing Golden Crows.

One dragon against nine birds!

Rumble...

The dragon and birds collide.

The body of the Evil Dragon is scorched, roasted away.

Then large portions peel off, burn into smoke.

While those nine Sun Birds were nourished by this Netherworld Energy, they instead appear increasingly intense and magnificent.

The nine large birds become more and more red, bigger and bigger, and burn more and more fiercely.

Sparks fly.

Evil cannot suppress righteousness!

Light always has the power to dispel darkness.

Obviously, Shen Xinglan's "Great Sun Buddha Sword Technique" is extremely vigorous and pure, flawless, a Buddhist Secret Scripture, the divine among the divine powers.

Tang Fei's "Netherworld Scroll"...

Just judging by its name, it doesn't sound like anything good.

What decent person would learn this?

Thus, under the illumination of the great path's radiance, the offensive of the ghostly Evil Dragon appeared somewhat thunderous but light on rain, weak as fallen flowers or flowing water.

"Aow..."

Its mouth still emitted a howl that echoed through the skies.

Seeing this scene before him, Shen Xinglan's eyes brightened.

"Won."

"Finally won."

"A sword of twenty years of demon, only for today."

Shen Xinglan felt a mix of emotions.

He had faced off against Tang Fei many times, yet never gained any advantage.

Ultimately, he suffered a great loss at the hands of an aged man long since 'dead', ruining his appearance...

How could this make the proud Shen Xinglan willing? How could he accept this?

From the day of his birth, he was the most admired beloved child in the world.

He had never let anyone down; whether it was his background, demeanor, or talent and cultivation, all were of the highest caliber, a dragon and phoenix among men.

Unfortunately, he wanted to become a dragon, but the Phoenix was unwilling...

So he experienced the taste of heartbreak.

Then, another closed-door disciple joined the ranks of the Grandmaster...

When you are far superior to others and everything is under control, you display extraordinary grace and elegance.

A decent person's decency is supported by a strong core.

Money, talent, or power.

Of course, there's also spirit.

Or mental pathology.

However, once you discover you are being approached, surpassed, or even trampled upon, you become anxious, fearful, restless, or even hysterical.

Shen Xinglan belonged to the latter.

He was in a superior position facing Tang Fei, the newcomer of the New Star; even though rumors of Tang Fei and Phoenix were already spreading throughout the Imperial City at that time.

Yet, being the top of the red list, head of the Seven Stars...

On Phoenix's seventeenth birthday coming of age ceremony, dressed in white, riding a crane, amazed countless dignitaries and celebrities of Phoenix Palace, while becoming the 'white moonlight' and 'dragon knight' in the hearts of countless young men and women?

At that time, what did Tang Fei amount to?

He had even graciously guided Tang Fei's cultivation method...

In just a few years, circumstances changed drastically.

He remained the noble gentleman of the Shen Family, his identity and status undiminished, even more prominent.

However, when he faced the young man from the old land again...

He became the son of the treasonous marshal, leading a group to challenge the Shen Family's hegemony.

Who could believe this?

If he did not have family protection, could he accomplish such things?

He couldn't.

But Tang Fei achieved it.

Not only achieved it but did it very well.

So, this battle, he lost.

And lost terribly.

This is why he publicly killed Shen Anyuan Ji Yunfeng as a couple.

Firstly, to set an example through killing, Shen Qingping must remain an isolated event and not a precedent.

If everyone followed Shen Qingping's example, the situation controlled by the Shen Family would crumble.

Secondly, to solidify Grandpa's belief and choice...

He could see that Grandpa felt he acted indecisively and was thinking about replacing him as heir.

Shen Xinglan recalls a movie line he once heard:

I've waited three years just for an opportunity; I need to achieve something.

I don't want to prove my greatness; I want to tell everyone whatever I lost, I'll recover.

Yes, today, he will recover.

To kill Tang Fei, regain the city, and erase his traces in this world...

Or increase them.

The marshal's son commits treason once more... This father and son are nailed to the pillar of historical disgrace.
