"Your Highness, please don't be deceived by this treacherous commoner."

Zhao Danping bowed respectfully to Zhao Fengya.

When the old eunuch saw the Celestial Master from Longhu Mountain arrive, he suppressed his pain, stepped forward, and began to weep uncontrollably before Zhao Danping.

"Master Zhao, you must avenge my family! That scoundrel crippled one of my arms without a word!"

Listening to the old eunuch's lament, Zhao Danping glanced at the princess beside him. He felt that as long as he tore off Yu Tian's deceitful mask, and the princess realized that she had been deceived by Yu Tian, ​​then...

They would definitely be extremely grateful to themselves.

If the princess is already thanking me, then if she says a few good words for me to the emperor, wouldn't it be easy for me to get promoted and ennobled?

"Young master, you should leave quickly. The person who came is a Celestial Master from Longhu Mountain. He is not someone to be trifled with. Even if you defeat him today, the other Celestial Masters of Longhu Mountain will not let you off in the future."

Jiang Ni stepped forward, tugged at Yu Tian's sleeve, and whispered a reminder to Yu Tian to leave.

On a rainy day, he looked at Jiang Ni, then at Princess Zhao Fengya of the Li Yang royal family.

"As expected of a princess, both of them are extremely beautiful."

I thought about it silently on a rainy day.

"Don't worry, it's nothing."

Yu Tian comforted Jiang Ni, then looked at Zhao Fengya.

"Today, I will show you clearly what an immortal is."

As Yu Tian finished speaking, the sword energy from the two fingers of his right hand instantly shot towards Zhao Danping.

Zhao Danping never expected that Yu Tian would be so utterly uncivilized, actually taking advantage of his unpreparedness to attack him directly—a truly despicable act.

He quickly parried with his sword.

The sword energy surged, sending Zhao Danping staggering back three or four steps. His right foot sank halfway into the mud before he could regain his footing.

"A sneak attack."

Zhao Danping snorted coldly, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes. He took out a talisman from his sleeve, and then the talisman in his hand suddenly trembled, turning into a ball of golden light, which swarmed towards Yu Tian like locusts.

Despite the rain, he remained motionless, merely raising his right hand slightly, his right hand forming a sword-finger gesture swirling with sword energy. Sword energy surged forth from between his two right fingers like a torrential downpour, violently colliding with Zhao Danping's talisman in mid-air.

In that instant, golden light and sword energy intertwined, as if heavenly thunder had ignited earthly fire, causing the entire valley to tremble.

The talisman transformed into countless golden specks of light that exploded in the air, scattering fragments like rain.

Even in the rain, the sword energy remained unstoppable, rushing straight towards Zhao Danping.

Zhao Danping's expression changed slightly. He quickly made hand seals, and the air behind him suddenly solidified. Runes appeared in mid-air and condensed into a golden shield.

"Dragon and Tiger Overturning Clouds Hand!"

Zhao Danping gave a low shout, and a huge dragon-shaped phantom suddenly appeared on the golden shield. With a wave of his hand, the dragon roared and pounced on Yu Tian.

Rainy day, his eyes remained cold and stern. He flashed and disappeared from his spot almost the instant the dragon shadow approached. The next moment, he appeared behind the dragon shadow.

The sword energy from his right-hand sword finger transformed into a dazzling sword light, piercing straight towards the dragon shadow's spine. The dragon shadow let out a mournful cry and shattered with a deafening roar.

Zhao Danping clearly hadn't expected Yu Tian's actions to be so swift. He took a few steps back, but the talisman in his hand didn't stop.

His hands moved swiftly, and more talismans burned in the air, transforming into rolling thunderclouds. Thunder roared and the purple lightning flashed densely like a net, covering the rainy sky.

Without hesitation, he closed his eyes slightly and sensed every change around him.

Just as the lightning was about to strike him, he suddenly waved his hand, his right hand pointing straight to the sky, and an invisible sword intent condensed in the void.

Its sword intent was extraordinary, as if driven by an invisible force.

Rainy Day's lips curled slightly as she softly uttered four words.

"Sword intent sweeps across the heavens!"

In that instant, the world seemed to stand still.

As the sword intent was unleashed in the rain, a sword light powerful enough to tear the sky apart ripped through the heavens.

The sword light was extremely dazzling, as if even the sun, moon, and stars paled in comparison.

The sword light parted the thunderclouds in mid-air, and the lightning was as fragile as paper in the face of this terrifying sword intent.

Zhao Danping's expression changed drastically as he looked at the sword light.

He gritted his teeth and retreated rapidly, his figure flashing through the air like a ghost, leaving several afterimages, but the sword intent in the rain did not stop.

The sword light followed Zhao Danping like a shadow, catching up with him in almost an instant.

"This...you're a terrestrial deity?"

Zhao Danping's eyes were filled with shock and resentment. Although his talismans and Taoist arts were exquisite, they seemed so powerless in the face of this terrifying sword intent.

Just as the sword light was about to strike Zhao Danping, he suddenly pulled out a dark red talisman. The talisman transformed into a blood-red light in the air, enveloping his entire body.

The sword light slashed fiercely at the crimson light, producing a deafening roar that shook the entire valley and caused several huge cracks to appear in the ground.

The sword intent did not dissipate in the rain; it remained as sharp as ever.

Although Zhao Danping barely managed to block the attack, he was now pale and exhausted. The crimson light gradually dissipated, and Zhao Danping coughed up blood, staggering backward.

"Since I claim to be an immortal, then I'll show you what the power of an immortal truly is."

As soon as Yu Tian finished speaking, his internal energy surged wildly, combining with the power of heaven and earth to slowly condense into a phantom of an immortal behind him.

The immortal wielded two swords, his long hair moving without wind. Then, the immortal's phantom image swung its two swords towards Zhao Danping.

A yin-yang sword aura, carrying an aura of destruction, attacked Zhao Danping.

Zhao Danping looked unwilling, but he was powerless to resist. He barely managed to stand up straight and said coldly.

"I...may not be as skilled as you, but one day, your sword will also reach its limit..."

Yu Tian smiled calmly, and just as the Yin-Yang sword energy was about to strike Zhao Danping's cheek, Yu Tian waved his hand to disperse the Yin-Yang sword energy.

"The way of the sword is boundless; if the heart has a sword, the world can be a sword."

"If you can't even understand this, what right do you have to wield a sword, and what right do I have to call myself a sword immortal?"

After speaking with a smile, Yu Tian pinched Zhao Fengya's cheek, who seemed indifferent to the situation.

"Zhao Fengya, right? Wake up."

The playful words spoken in the rain and the pain on her cheek brought Zhao Fengya back to her senses.

"You want to tell Xu Fengnian about how he broke off the engagement three years ago, right?"

Rainy Day asked with a smile.

Zhao Fengya was stunned for a moment, but quickly came to his senses. He nodded, which was considered as acknowledging what Yu Tian had said.

"Let's make a deal. I'll make you the Empress of Liyang, and you'll become my concubine. How about that?"

He whispered in Zhao Fengya's ear on a rainy day.

Zhao Fengya was completely stunned, and her cheeks quickly turned red.

He claims to be an immortal, so why is he speaking so crudely? But he says he can make me the Empress of Liyang.

But this comes at a price.

Zhao Fengya hesitated. She naturally wanted to sit on the throne of the Empress of Liyang, but she knew in her heart that unless something unexpected happened, she would never be able to sit on that throne until her death.

But today someone tells me that they can get me into that position, at the cost of becoming their possession.

"I don't need you to give me an answer now. You can think about it slowly when you get back. Tell me when we meet for the second time."

Rainy Day smiled faintly, then waved for her to leave.

Zhao Fengya nodded, and then obediently listened to Yu Tian's words and went straight down the mountain.

He completely forgot about his plans to seek revenge on Xu Fengnian or to investigate Xu Longxiang.

"Let's go see Xu Fengnian."

Rainy day, he stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Ni, not waiting for her to struggle, and then flashed away towards the inner courtyard of Wudang Mountain.

Meanwhile, after more than half a month, Wang Chonglou finally expelled the sword energy left in his body by Yu Tian.

"I never expected that it would take me half a month to get rid of this sword energy."

Wang Chonglou gasped, recalling the sword strike from that day. If the other party had truly intended to kill him, he would be a corpse by now.

Pushing open the door, Xu Fengnian had been waiting outside for half a month.

"Sir."

Wang Chonglou flicked his whisk and bowed to Xu Fengnian.

"Senior Brother Sect Leader, are you alright?"

Hong Xixiang stepped forward and asked with concern.

"It's nothing, I just didn't expect that the sword he left in my body that day would take me more than half a month to heal."

Wang Chonglou sighed and said.

Meanwhile, Yu Tian and Jiang Ni arrived at the inner courtyard of Wudang Mountain.

At first, Jiang Ni was quietly nestled in Yu Tian's arms, clinging to his waist and burying her head in his chest. But when she saw Xu Fengnian staring at her with murderous eyes...
