The First Venerable of All Paths

"Fang Xuan of the Fang family has come to keep the appointment!"

His loud voice clearly reached everyone's ears, instantly shaking the entire venue.

"Fang Xuan of the Fang family? When did such a family exist in Zhongzhou? I've never even heard of Fang Xuan before."

Some people, not understanding what was going on, looked puzzled.

"I remember now, three days ago, Zhao Yao, the deacon of Daocheng, was murdered. The killer's name seemed to be Fang Xuan!"

"He declared war in public that day, saying he would challenge Zhao Shengzi in three days, and unexpectedly, he actually came!"

"This Fang Xuan is truly audacious! Not only did he kill a deacon of the Dao Seeking Sect, but he also dared to go up the mountain to challenge them. This is a deliberate slap in the face to the Dao Seeking Sect!"

"This is no ordinary challenge; this is a provocation, a declaration of war against the Dao Seeking Sect!"

Everyone was shocked and began to speculate about Fang Xuan's identity and his purpose.

However, those who knew the inside story were even more shocked.

"He really came!"

Su Yang clenched his fists, his face contorted with rage and hatred.

"That little bastard, he really came!"

Qi Changfeng, Wan Rong, and the others were equally shocked.

Is he really not afraid of death?

Liu Que glanced at Zhao Kou, whose face was gloomy, and immediately shouted angrily, "You audacious scoundrel, how dare you cause trouble in my Daoist Sect!"

"Hehe, you've got quite the prestige of the Daoist Sect."

At the top of the white jade steps, a young man in white carrying a box stepped forward.

He had an upright posture, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes.

He was like a sword yet to be drawn, its sharpness concealed.

This person was none other than Fang Xuan!

Upon seeing Fang Xuan, Su Yang's hatred intensified.

The expressions of Qi Changfeng and the others became increasingly shocked.

On the high platform, Zhao Kou subconsciously gripped the armrest of his chair, a chilling killing intent flashing in his eyes.

Gu Ya and Qi Xuanlin were both taken aback.

The former marveled at Fang Xuan's youth, while the latter stared intently at him as if he had discovered a rare treasure.

"It was him!"

When the masked woman saw Fang Xuan, her delicate body trembled slightly involuntarily, and a cold and sharp sword intent uncontrollably emanated from her body.

Yan Daoming, with the long sword on his back, seemed to be infected by the sword intent, and actually let out a weak groan, as if he was afraid.

"Junior sister, what's wrong?"

Yan Daoming's expression changed, and he quickly suppressed his sword, looking at the masked woman in surprise.

Even Qi Xuanlin cast a glance at him, his eyes full of doubt.

His own disciple had failed to suppress the sword's heart?

Could it be because...?

She looked at Fang Xuan again, a faint smile curving her lips.

The masked woman remained silent, even closing her eyes to avoid looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar young man.

But her heart was already in turmoil.

On the back of the elephant-like mountain, the young man named Futian exclaimed in surprise, "It's him!"

"Junior Brother Futian, do you know him?"

Tuoba Zhenzhu looked at Futian, then stared curiously at Fang Xuan.

"I've met him once."

Fu Tian clenched his fists and hurriedly said, "Junior Sister, this person is despicable and shameless. He likes to attack from behind and steal people's treasures. You must stay away from him."

He discovered the Earth Fire Xuanling Nether Flame at the foot of Phoenix Cry Mountain, but Fang Xuan almost took it away. Fu Tian still remembers this grudge to this day.

Tuoba Zhenzhu is the apple of the eye of the Lord of Beast Taming Mountain and is known as the Little Princess of Beast Taming Mountain.

Fu Tian finally managed to get to her side, but he didn't expect her to be interested in other men.

"oh."

Upon hearing this, Tuoba Zhenzhu lost all interest in Fang Xuan.

"Since you say this person is shameless, he must not be a good person. I will stay far away from him in the future."

Fu Tian was overjoyed.

Tuoba Zhenzhu is simple-minded and easily deceived.

If he just puts in a little more effort and takes down his opponent, then...

Thinking of this, Fu Tian whispered, "Junior Sister, when we go back, I'll find a chance to take you to catch that spirit beast."

"Really? You can't lie to me."

Tuoba Zhenzhu's eyes lit up as soon as she heard this, and her little face was full of excitement.

"When have I ever lied to you, Senior Sister?"

Fu Tian said softly, "I'm just worried that Senior Brother Tuoba and Elder Gu won't agree."

"It's alright."

Tuoba Zhenzhu's eyes darted around, and she said slyly, "We'll find a chance to sneak away later, and they won't know."

"good!"

Fu Tian's smile grew even wider as he looked at Fang Xuan.

"Boy, you were lucky to escape with your life back then. This time, it's going to be as difficult as climbing to heaven if you want to leave the Dao Asking Mountain alive."

As soon as Fang Xuan stepped onto the Dao Asking Square, he felt everyone's gaze fall upon him.

There was shock, confusion, anger, and an undisguised murderous intent.

Even under so many gazes, Fang Xuan's expression remained unchanged.

calm.

Indifferent.

"Zhao Shengzi? Dao Dao Sect?"

Fang Xuan looked at Zhao Qingcang in the center of the square, a cruel smile curving his lips.

"A dignified Holy Son, coveting another's Dao Body, stealing their bloodline, and severing their martial path; the entire sect is even more despicable and shameless, plotting to exterminate the entire clan. Such a sect dares to call itself a major sect? It's truly laughable!"

His words were full of sarcasm and mockery, as well as a chilling intent to kill.

Zhao Qingcang seized his Dao body, severed his martial meridians and dantian, and knocked him off a cliff.

The Daoist Sect first sent disciples to try and seize the secret realm, and then sent elders to prepare to destroy the Fang family.

Fang Xuan has never forgotten these blood debts.

He ostensibly went to keep an appointment today, but in reality, he was there to commit murder!

"boom!"

When Fang Xuan's voice reached everyone's ears, it immediately caused a huge uproar.

Everyone's face showed shock, astonishment, and disbelief.

Zhao Qingcang, the Holy Son of the Dao Seeking Sect, stole someone's bloodline?

Was his innate Dao body stolen from someone else?

The Dao Seeking Sect actually wanted to exterminate an entire clan just to silence a witness?

If this is true, it would be enough to overturn everyone's understanding of the Dao Seeking Sect, and might even trigger resistance from all sects in Qingzhou against the Dao Seeking Sect.

Zhao Kou remained silent, but stared intently at Fang Xuan.

A powerful and dangerous aura emanated from his body, as if it wanted to crush Fang Xuan.

"Hehe, why should Peak Master Zhao be angry?"

Gu Ya chuckled and waved his whisk, blocking Zhao Kou's aura.

"It wouldn't look good if word got out that you, a peak master and sect elder, personally attacked a junior."

Gu Ya said meaningfully, "Some people might even think that Peak Master Zhao is preparing to kill someone to silence them, thus giving himself away."

Zhao Kou frowned, took a deep look at Gu Ya, and his aura became increasingly chilling.

But Gu Ya met his gaze without fear, his eyes filled with schadenfreude as if watching a spectacle unfold.

Forcibly suppressing his anger, Zhao Kou glanced at Liu Que.

"Those who spread heresies and utter nonsense deserve to be condemned!"

Liu Que understood immediately and pointed at Fang Xuan, shouting angrily, "Where are the disciples of the Enforcement Hall? Why haven't you seized this thief and killed him on the spot as a warning to others?"

"yes!"

Immediately, the three disciples of the Dao Seeking Sect moved swiftly and headed straight for Fang Xuan.

"Thump!"

Before the three of them could even get close to Fang Xuan, Fang Xuan stomped his foot on the ground, and the terrifying force shattered the ground. The force of the impact sent the three of them flying, crashing heavily to the ground.

Everyone was stunned as they stared at the three Dao Seeking Sect disciples who had fainted.

How can Fang Xuan be so powerful?

"No wonder he dared to challenge Zhao Qingcang; he does have some skill."

Tuoba Xiaozhang chuckled, grabbed a spirit fruit from the table, took a big bite, and prepared to watch the show.

"court death!"

Seeing his three disciples defeated, Liu Que's eyes grew even colder. He was about to take action himself when someone stopped him.

"Elder Liu, let me do it!"

This person was actually Su Yang!

Su Yang stepped out from the crowd, staring coldly at Fang Xuan with murderous intent on his face.

"Fang Xuan, you destroyed my Su family and severed our foundation. Today, I will kill you right here in front of everyone!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an extremely powerful aura erupted from Su Yang's body.

"Divine intent?!"

Countless people who knew Su Yang were shocked by the aura emanating from him.

"Fang Xuan, you didn't expect this, did you?"

Su Yang, his face full of arrogance, sneered, "I have already attained divine will; killing you is as easy as turning my hand!"

"You're pretty tough."

Enemies meeting are bound to be filled with hatred.

Fang Xuan also made no attempt to hide his murderous intent towards Su Yang.

"If you want to die, then I'll grant your wish!"
