Starting as the heir of a marquis's mansion, I gained access to a summoning system.

Li Chenzhou stood in the quiet room, holding the secret report sent by Chai Yuguan in his hand.

Tianwang, a Grandmaster Level Two assassin, assassinated the young master.

The White Lotus Sect, the Netherworld Dharma King, and the Heavenly Net are in cahoots.

His face was calm as still water, but the air in the quiet room grew increasingly heavy, and the intent of his fist surged within him, almost bursting out of his body.

"Someone come here."

"Yes, sir," came the subordinate's voice from outside the door.

"Summon Young Master Yu, the head of the May Hall, to come see me immediately."

"Yes."

Half an incense stick later, Gongzi Yu entered the quiet room. He was dressed in a purple robe, with a refined and scholarly appearance, a long sword at his waist, and an extraordinary and otherworldly demeanor.

"What are your orders, Dragon Head?" Gongzi Yu asked, bowing respectfully.

Li Chenzhou turned around and looked at him: "The Netherworld Dharma King of the White Lotus Sect colluded with the Heavenly Net to assassinate you, young master. The Heavenly Net assassins have been killed, but the Netherworld Dharma King is still alive."

A cold glint flashed in Gongzi Yu's eyes: "The Dragon Lord wants to kill him?"

Li Chenzhou said, slowly and deliberately, "I want him dead. You're coming with me."

Gongzi Yu was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."

Li Chenzhou strode out of the quiet room, with Gongzi Yu following closely behind.

The two figures disappeared into the night, heading straight for the outskirts of Guangling Prefecture.

The King of the Underworld is waiting for news from the Heavenly Net at the post station.

He had been waiting for two days. According to the agreement, Skynet's Blood Hand should have succeeded. He was in a good mood and even had the gray-clad man prepare a pot of fine wine, which he poured for himself.

"Your Majesty, there's still no news from the Heavenly Net," the gray-robed man said in a low voice as he entered.

The Netherworld Dharma King waved his hand: "What's the rush? Blood Hand is a Grandmaster at the second level. Killing a junior in the Innate Realm is a piece of cake for him. He's probably already on his way back."

His expression changed drastically as soon as he finished speaking.

Two auras were rapidly approaching each other—one was extremely domineering, its fist intent as solid as a mountain; the other was sharp as a sword, its edge fully revealed.

"Li Chenzhou!" The Netherworld Dharma King suddenly stood up, his white lotus dharma image appearing behind him. "There's another one... a Grandmaster at the first level!"

Before he could think any further, two figures had already landed in the courtyard.

Li Chenzhou, his green robe fluttering in the wind, exuded an overwhelming aura of martial arts intent.

Gongzi Yu, dressed in flowing purple robes, drew his long sword.

"Netherworld King," Li Chenzhou looked at him, his tone as calm as still water, "you colluded with the Heavenly Net to assassinate those you shouldn't have killed. Today, you won't leave."

The Netherworld Dharma King's face was ashen, but he showed no fear. He was a Grandmaster at the fifth level, one level higher than Li Chenzhou, and even with a Grandmaster at the first level as an ally, he was not afraid.

"Li Chenzhou, do you think you can kill me by bringing just one person?" The Netherworld Dharma King sneered. "I have been immersed in the fifth level of the Grandmaster realm for twenty years. How could you, a mere fourth-level cultivator, possibly shake my resolve?"

Li Chenzhou did not answer, but simply raised his right fist.

The essence of boxing: reigning supreme.

The air within a radius of a hundred feet was instantly compressed, and an invisible force descended from the sky, as if the entire world had submitted to this punch.

The Netherworld Dharma King's expression changed slightly. He activated the White Lotus Dharma Form with all his might, and a huge white lotus bloomed behind him, its petals layered upon each other, emitting an eerie light.

"go!"

The white lotus Dharma form transformed into a beam of white light and hurtled towards Li Chenzhou.

Li Chenzhou unleashed a punch.

The force of the fist collided with the white light, producing a deafening roar. The dilapidated walls of the post station collapsed with a crash in the shockwave, and deep cracks appeared in the ground.

The Netherworld King took three steps back, his face pale. Li Chenzhou's fist intent was even more domineering than he had imagined; in this head-on collision, he had actually been at a disadvantage.

"Impossible!" the Netherworld Dharma King roared, and the white lotus Dharma form condensed once more.

Just then, a sword light came from the side.

Gongzi Yu has made his move.

His sword wasn't fast, but its angles were extremely tricky, each strike aimed at the Netherworld King's weak points in defense. Although his cultivation level as a Grandmaster at the first level wasn't high, his swordsmanship was exquisite, and combined with Li Chenzhou's direct pressure, he forced the Netherworld King to be distracted.

"Get out of my way!" The Netherworld Dharma King slapped Gongzi Yu with his palm.

Gongzi Yu dodged to the side, his sword energy sweeping across, leaving a bloody mark on the arm of the Netherworld Dharma King.

At the same time, Li Chenzhou's second punch arrived.

This punch was more powerful, more domineering, and faster than the first one.

Reigning Supreme - Second Form: Shattered Mountains and Rivers.

The intent of the fist materialized, like a mountain descending from the sky, crushing everything.

The Netherworld King disregarded Gongzi Yu and focused all his energy on activating the White Lotus Dharma Form to defend. The White Lotus trembled violently under the force of the fist, its petals shattering one by one.

"ah--!"

The Netherworld Dharma King spat out blood, and the White Lotus Dharma Image collapsed with a crash. Li Chenzhou's fist intent, still strong, landed solidly on his chest.

Gongzi Yu's sword pierced his back at the same time.

The Netherworld King's body froze.

He lowered his head, looking at the dented fist mark on his chest, then at the sword tip protruding from behind him. Blood gushed from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with resentment.

"You...can't kill me...The White Lotus Sect won't let this go..."

Before he could finish speaking, his body collapsed to the ground with a thud.

One of the four great Dharma Kings of the White Lotus Sect, the Netherworld Dharma King, is dead.

After slaying the Netherworld Dharma King, Li Chenzhou returned to the headquarters and immediately summoned the six branches.

"The Netherworld Dharma King of the White Lotus Sect is dead."

He stood in the council hall, his voice not loud, but clearly reaching everyone's ears: "The White Lotus Sect is leaderless in the thirteen western prefectures. This is the best time to completely eliminate their power."

The six hall masters shouted in unison, "Heed the Dragon Head's command!"

"Yiyue Hall will sweep away the remnants of the White Lotus Sect in Pingyang County."

"February Hall, cut off all economic resources of the White Lotus Sect."

"Sanyue Hall, block the waterways of Xunyang Prefecture, and do not allow a single person to escape."

"The April Hall is gradually encroaching on the territory of the White Lotus Sect in Yanmen Prefecture."

"May Hall, follow me to clean up the core branch of the White Lotus Sect in Guangling Prefecture."

"June Hall, intelligence integration, ensure no one escapes the net."

"action!"

All six branches mobilized simultaneously.

This time, it's not just about targeting the periphery, but a complete purge.

Overnight, the White Lotus Sect's decades-long influence in the thirteen western prefectures was completely eradicated. Its core branches were breached, its members were either killed, fled, or captured, and all its strongholds, industries, and resources were taken over by the Azure Dragon Society.

The news sent shockwaves through the entire western region.

Blood Demon Sect, Iron Blood Hall, Chaotian Palace, Azure Dragon Temple... all forces are reassessing the strength of the Azure Dragon Society.

The man in gray stood amidst the ruins, trembling as he looked at the corpse of the Netherworld King.

He couldn't believe that the Dharma King, a Grandmaster at the fifth level, was dead just like that. He had been killed by Li Chenzhou and Gongzi Yu in a joint attack, without even a chance to escape.

"The Dharma King... is dead..." the gray-robed man murmured, then turned and ran.

He wanted to escape back to the White Lotus Sect headquarters to report the news.

But he hadn't run far when a sword flashed past, his body froze, and he slowly fell to the ground.

Gongzi Yu sheathed his sword and stood at the edge of the ruins, looking at the devastated post station.

"The White Lotus Sect...in the West, it has since become just a legend."

He turned and left, disappearing into the mountains and forests.

Dongfang Weiwo sat in the office, holding the battle report sent by Li Chenzhou in his hand.

The Netherworld Dharma King has been slain, and the western forces of the White Lotus Sect have been completely wiped out.

He folded the battle report, put it in his sleeve, and closed his eyes to concentrate.

Ximen Chuixue was hidden in the shadows, undetectable to him, but he knew the Sword God was there.

Li Chenzhou has broken through to the fourth level of the Grandmaster realm and, together with Gongzi Yu, killed the Netherworld Dharma King, who was at the fifth level.

The Green Dragon Society has expanded its six branches across the board, and now it has brought half of the thirteen prefectures in the west under its control.

Everything is going according to plan.
