I, a centenarian, sweep through the gates of immortality.

The upright young men on patrol dared not provoke Lin Feng, but they were also worried that Lin Feng might cause some big trouble again, so they all reported the news of Lin Feng's return to Zhongzhou.

In an instant, all the major sects were shaken.

The sects that had directly clashed with Lin Feng, in particular, appeared quite panicked at this moment.

The sect leader of Guanlan Sword Mansion urgently summoned all the elders to discuss countermeasures.

"Everyone, Lin Feng, that great evil star, has actually returned, and he's currently lurking in Sighing City. I heard he even successfully broke through in the center of Sighing City."

"He has already reached the late stage of Core Formation. If we allow him to continue to improve, it will probably be extremely detrimental to our entire sect."

"Do you have any countermeasures in mind?"

The elders looked at each other, equally bewildered and at a loss.

After an awkward silence, the elders spoke helplessly.

"If Lin Feng only returns to Zhongzhou, we do have ways to deal with it."

"But he went to the City of Sighs, and right in the very center. The spiritual energy there is extremely violent; anyone who gets close will suffer a severe backlash."

"If we want to take action against Lin Feng now, we would have to put ourselves in danger, which would undoubtedly be extremely disadvantageous for us."

The people of Guanlan Sword Mansion knew very well that Lin Feng had already obtained many treasures, and coupled with his extremely strong innate sword embryo talent, his cultivation speed was extremely fast. If Lin Feng were given more time to cultivate, it would be really difficult to deal with him.

The problem is that Lin Feng chose an extremely difficult location for cultivation.

As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. Lin Feng stayed in the center of Sighing City, a place that was extremely dangerous. This made the people of Guanlan Sword Mansion hesitant to act rashly.

After an awkward silence, a whooshing sound suddenly came from outside, carrying a sharp killing intent, and rushed towards Guanlan Sword Mansion.

The people of Guanlan Sword Mansion were shocked.

Thinking that someone had come to attack, they quickly formed ranks and prepared to fight back.

But when they arrived at the mountain gate, they were embarrassed to find that the person who rushed in was actually Venerable Xuanming.

The sect leader of Guanlan Sword Mansion quickly dismissed the crowd and went to greet them.

"So it's Venerable Xuanming. I thought it was the enemy coming to our door."

"I guessed you'd come; it's probably about Lin Feng, right?"

Venerable Xuanming was already nearing the end of his lifespan. He had previously made many plans, which consumed a lot of resources. He finally managed to complete the plan before the opening of the Underworld Emperor's Tomb.

He attempted to use the treasures in the Underworld Emperor's tomb to prolong his life and buy time for his next breakthrough.

What he didn't expect was that all his careful planning had benefited others.

Lin Feng stole all the treasures from the Underworld Emperor's Tomb. Not only did he not gain much benefit, but he also caused heavy losses to the entire sect.

Under these circumstances, his resentment towards Lin Feng is understandable.

Venerable Xuanming entered the Guanlan Sword Mansion with a gloomy expression. After bowing to everyone, he spoke coldly.

"Lin Feng has returned, and you all have a grudge against him. Now that his cultivation is growing stronger every day, he will inevitably come back to take revenge. Are you all just going to stand by and do nothing?"

The people from Guanlan Sword Mansion looked embarrassed when faced with Venerable Xuanming's question.

They naturally understood the importance of Lin Feng's matter, but the problem was that they had no way to deal with Lin Feng.

To kill Lin Feng, we must venture deep into the City of Sighs.

This is far too dangerous for Guanlan Sword Mansion.

During this period, there have been constant conflicts between the various sects, and they have also made many enemies. If these enemies were to take this opportunity to attack them, the risk would be too great for them.

Helpless, the sect leader of Guanlan Sword Mansion could only sigh and say.

"We are well aware of the implications, but our Guanlan Sword Mansion is currently embroiled in numerous troubles and has no time to spare for anything else."

Venerable Xuanming had figured out Guanlan Sword Mansion's intentions.

He waved his hand dismissively and said directly.

"I understand your concerns. I've come to you today to discuss cooperation, and I will naturally address your concerns as well."

"Isn't your biggest worry the danger you'll encounter deep within the City of Sighs? You don't need to worry about that. Once you enter the City of Sighs, I will clear the way for you, and I will bear all the risks myself."

Upon hearing that Venerable Xuanming was going to lead the vanguard, the people of Guanlan Sword Mansion immediately became interested.

After all, for the people of Guanlan Sword Mansion, killing Lin Feng was an extremely advantageous thing, but the risk was somewhat high.

Now that Venerable Xuanming is going to take on this risk for them, they are naturally happy to help.

"Brother Xuanming, with your words, I can finally rest assured."

"As long as you're willing to take the lead, we'll definitely not lag behind in killing Lin Feng."

The two sides hit it off immediately and quickly reached an agreement.

To be on the safe side, Venerable Xuanming went to other sects to discuss and mobilize them. Meanwhile, the people of Guanlan Sword Mansion gathered the vast majority of their forces and marched in a mighty force to Sighing City, preparing to besiege Lin Feng.

"This time, we absolutely cannot let Lin Feng leave again."

"We must kill Lin Feng as quickly as possible."

As people from various sects gathered in Sighing City, Liu Qingqing, who had been waiting for news of Lin Feng on the outskirts, finally became nervous.

She knew very well that such a large gathering of so many prestigious sects could not possibly be for those lingering demonic cultivators; their target must be Lin Feng.

This major sect is home to many top cultivators, and its leaders are all Nascent Soul level experts.

Under these circumstances, even if Lin Feng had reached the peak of the Golden Core stage, he would probably have had difficulty dealing with such a large number of experts attacking him.

Thinking that Lin Feng might be surrounded and killed, Liu Qingqing said with a nervous expression.

"What should we do? Lin Feng is still trapped in Sighing City and hasn't come out yet. Once the encirclement of these prestigious sects is completed, Lin Feng will be in real danger."

Liu Qingqing really wanted to rush in and help, at the very least to rescue Lin Feng.

However, embarrassingly, she had already tested it before and found that once she entered the City of Sighs, it would cause changes in the formation.

Not only would it be difficult to offer Lin Feng any help, it might even increase the pressure Lin Feng was under.

Left with no other choice, she could only turn to look at Yun Shu and say helplessly.

"Miss Yun, you should take these children and leave first. There might be a major battle here, which is extremely dangerous. We can't let these children get involved."

"Your cultivation level is insufficient; I cannot protect you. You should leave as soon as possible."
