Sect Leader! Please strengthen our Dao Sect!

As he watched the group from the Dragon King's Mansion depart, Magistrate Li still wore a sinister smirk on his face.

"This old white-collar worker wasn't always like that, but now he's acting all high and mighty in front of me."

If it weren't for your identity restrictions, I would have boiled you alive, just like you'd say!

As soon as he finished speaking, a graceful figure appeared beside Magistrate Li. It was none other than the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect, who had not shown himself until now.

"Did you deliberately lead them to Qingyang County? That Tianyi Sect only recently opened; what powerful disciples could they possibly have?"

Magistrate Li waved his robe and snorted coldly, "Who expects the Heavenly Dao Sect to deal with these young demon cultivators of the Dragon Lord's Mansion? The girl following behind that old white-striped man has already reached the Qi Refining Perfection level, and is most likely the reclusive young master of the Dragon Lord's Mansion."

"Such strength is comparable to that of no more than a handful of the younger generation in Jiangnan Prefecture."

Upon hearing this, the Supreme Elder was even more puzzled. He gasped and asked with a strange expression, "Then why did you send them to Qingyang County? What's the point?"

Liu Jiujiang's temper has improved considerably over the years, but Wu Lianshan remains stubborn as ever. "Shifting the blame eastward—if the Dragon Lord's Mansion slaps those two old bastards in the face, and they get really angry… ha, you really dare!"

"This magistrate simply can't stand that old white-collar worker's arrogant attitude!"

He's arrogant in front of me, let's see if he dares to be arrogant in front of Wu Lianshan.

I was too afraid to touch him because of my status. If Wu Lianshan got angry, I'd chop him into eight pieces; otherwise, he'd be considered strong and muscular all these years!

……

……

On the Cangnan River, a magnificent and luxurious treasure ship is moored on the shore.

The young demon cultivators from the Dragon Lord's Mansion, who had just finished their trip to the Heavenly Sword Sect, all wore arrogant expressions.

"Well done, you've wiped out another immortal sect!"

"Human cultivators are truly pathetic!"

On the bow deck, the girl softly asked Bai Zhuo a question.

"Elder Baizhuo, haven't you asked why we bypassed Qingyang County before? Is there no immortal sect in Qingyang County?"

"this……"

Bai Zhu bowed deeply, showing utmost respect to the girl before him, but for a moment he didn't know how to answer her question.

"Qingyang County did not have any immortal sects before, but recently a new immortal sect has been added to the list, called Tianyi Sect."

"The Daoist sect has only been established for a short time, so there's probably no one the young master is looking for."

The girl's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, seemingly dissatisfied with Bai Zhuo's presumptuous actions.

Seeing that the other party was displeased, Bai Zhuo quickly cupped his hands and bowed, saying, "It is my fault. It is really because the two officials in charge of Qingyang County have unpredictable ways of doing things and are extremely irritable."

"I'm afraid that if the young lord were to... uh... this..."

Upon hearing this explanation, the girl slightly relaxed her brows and said coolly, "Let's go take a look, although the purpose of this trip is not that person."

However, since Father has already deduced that person's whereabouts, let's try our luck this time, so the trip won't be in vain.

"yes!"

As the girl gave the order, the tall treasure ship turned around in the river and headed towards Qingyang County, which it had previously bypassed!

After a half-day journey, the treasure ship quickly arrived at the border between Longshan County and Qingyang County.

The traces left by the battle that broke out here more than a year ago have been completely covered by the wonders of nature.

However, those dozens of deep ravines, stretching for tens of thousands of meters, still attracted the attention of the young demon cultivators of the Dragon Lord's Mansion.

"The ley lines here are truly unique; they don't seem to be naturally formed, but rather as if they were cleaved out by a giant sword."

"Maybe I overheard those human trash mentioning it when I was in Jiangling City."

It seems the magistrate and county lieutenant of Qingyang County are called something like "Overlord Fist Heavenly Blade" or something... Daring to take such titles, they are simply outrageously arrogant.

"Human cultivators have always been arrogant and ignorant of their own limitations!"

Long Yao gave a wicked smile, shouted a sentence, and then secretly glanced at the beautiful figure standing at the bow of the ship, seemingly trying to attract her attention.

Unfortunately, the girl, who seemed untouched by the world and stood aloof from all worldly affairs, didn't even turn her head.

"Quiet!"

Bai Zhuo's low shout instantly made the restless demon cultivators tense up and shut their mouths.

He felt somewhat heavy-hearted at the moment, and was also annoyed by these ignorant and arrogant younger generations.

He had deliberately avoided Qingyang County before, but he never expected that bastard surnamed Li would set him up.

Let alone the young demons of the Dragon Lord's Mansion, even among the current generation of young people in Jiangnan Prefecture, how many can truly comprehend just how insane Wu Lianshan and Liu Jiujiang were back then?!

Jiangnan Prefecture has only one Golden Core True Monarch on the surface, which puts it at the bottom of the entire Yunzhou.

However, the last argument, fueled by personal feelings, made Jiangnan Prefecture famous throughout Yunzhou.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators who came from his manor to join the fun almost all suffered crushing defeats against the local Foundation Establishment cultivators from Jiangnan Prefecture.

Those freaks, including the former Magistrate Li, have earned the reputation of being virtually invincible among cultivators of the same realm in Jiangnan Prefecture.

Yet, precisely under these circumstances, those two were like gods of death, utterly shattering everything in their path. It could be said that a large part of Jiangnan Prefecture's reputation stemmed from the ferocity of those two.

It shattered the Dao hearts of countless Foundation Establishment cultivators in the outer realms, leaving an indelible shadow.

Bai Zhuo was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, and he wasn't even qualified to fight Liu Jiujiang and Wu Lianshan. He was sent back to the Dragon Lord's Mansion by Li Dongzhu with a single punch.

Even though his cultivation has improved over the years and he has learned several great supernatural powers from the Dragon Lord's Palace, and he is confident that he is no weaker than Li Dongzhu back then, Bai Zhuo is still uneasy when facing those two evil stars.

"I hope nothing goes wrong. I hope the person Young Master is looking for isn't in Qingyang County, otherwise things... will become troublesome."

"I wonder who this person is that could make the young lord so concerned, and why the prefect has gone to such great lengths to deduce their identity."

Just as the treasure ship was about to enter Qingyang County.

A terrifying blade of light suddenly descended from the sky!

One stroke cleaves the river!

The wide river surface was abruptly cut open, revealing the deep riverbed.

Bai Zhuo, who was already on guard, immediately released his spiritual power to protect the girl behind him.

But the other young demon cultivators from the Dragon Lord's Mansion were in a much worse situation. While they were shocked by this earth-shattering change, they were also forced to stay on the deck by that hateful pressure.

This appearance is exactly the same as the burly man they treated in Jiangling City that day!

"hateful!"

Before he could even process what was happening, Long Yao felt incredibly humiliated and frustrated, especially when he recalled how he had treated that human rogue cultivator that day.

A powerful voice, like a resounding bell, boomed in everyone's ears, carrying only one word.

"roll!"

"presumptuous!"

Bai Zhu roared angrily, unleashing his full power to instantly deflect the oppressive aura.

He had also cultivated his foundation for many years and was no longer the insignificant person who wasn't even worthy of sitting at the table. He had his own pride and could not bear to be treated so humiliatingly.

"Wu Lianshan! You've gone too far!"

"We have already informed the True Lord of our itinerary. How dare you, a mere county magistrate, act like this?!"
