The Righteous Sixth Elder
It was a woman who launched the surprise attack.
Dressed in an outfit with short sleeves, she looked about 20 years old. Her eyes were as dark as the starry sky. When she attacked, she was as fast as a bolt of black lightning. Almost at the same time when her voice sounded, she had already arrived behind Feng Xia.
At that moment, Feng Xia could even see the tassel on her sword hilt and the deformed silver edging on the clothes on her chest clearly.
Yes.
The reason why Feng Xia could see so clearly and even had time to stop and observe her was because one second after the woman’s attack, she had been smashed into the ground by him and became a real two-dimensional figure.
She was facing down and looked like she was in considerable pain.

At the same time, a light ball jumped out from the woman’s body.
Embroidery.
Feng Xia: “?”
At least drop me a normal light ball!
The strange sword skill she had used just now or that Shadow Escape Technique were both good enough! In a worst case scenario, she could just drop light balls containing Essence or Sword Talent or something similar. I would not mind more of those.
Heck… What the hell is Embroidery?
“Could the point of my attribute superpower be…”
For a moment, Feng Xia had a bad feeling. However, there were too few samples at the moment, so he could not be completely sure of his thoughts.
“Ah—”
Almost at the same time.
Once again, Ye Yi screamed in agony.
Clutching the side of his face that was getting more swollen, he hurriedly got up from the ground and moved away from the black-haired girl in shock and anger. “Y-y-you… Why did you hit me again?!”
The girl’s movements were too fast, and he was defeated too quickly. He did not say anything this time though!
Zhu Youniang placed one hand on her waist and glanced sideways.
“Why didn’t you pass any comments just now?”
“… ???”
He knew very well how powerful this girl was and that he was far from being a match for her. Even if he attacked her again, he would only be embarrassing himself. Otherwise, Ye Yi would curse out loudly.
Damn you!
Damn you, do you hear, damn you!
“That seems to be Sister Yan Yahan! She’s one of the most senior disciples and has even opened a Mystical Realm. Why is she defeated in one strike?”
“Where did this guy come from? Isn’t he a little too strong?”
“He’s so young and so powerful. Why haven’t I heard of his name before? He can’t have fallen from the sky, right?”
“Is it true that the First Elder really didn’t teach him a lesson just now…”
Two disciples had faced instant defeats consecutively. They were like pebbles that had dropped into the water, causing ripples in the previous calmness of the crowd.
There was an immediate uproar!
Only Bai Canghai smiled bitterly and was not surprised at all.
“After all… that’s a Dao Platform Realm Champion!”
Even in the vast Xuanwu Kingdom, being a Dao Platform Realm Champion was to exist at the pinnacle.
It was told in legends that only the high and mighty royal family of Xuanwu Kingdom had a divine being that was in a realm stronger than the Dao Platform Realm. This divine being could suppress any situation and ensure the continuity of the luck and prosperity of the kingdom!
“Although I don’t know what exactly happened, I think Senior Feng and Master must have reached some kind of tacit agreement… This way, with Senior Feng guarding the Thousand Autumn Valley, I can leave the sect without any worry.”
Bai Canghai silently said to himself.
As Lei Shao’s personal disciple and the eldest disciple of the Thousand Autumn Valley, he was the one entrusted with the heavy responsibility of heading to the Ancient Forsaken Land. It was naturally impossible that he knew nothing about the current situation of the sect.
However, the more he understood about the situation the sect was in, the more he knew how difficult it would be for the Thousand Autumn Valley to complete its revival plan!
It was impossible that the royal family of Xuanwu Kingdom and the other sects would sit back and do nothing.
In the past 300 years, the ancestors of the Thousand Autumn Valley had tried to revive the sect several times, but in the end, they would all encounter some form of inexplicable crisis, causing all their hopes to vanish… This was undoubtedly the best proof!
“If I want to get out of such a predicament, I have to jump out of this quagmire first. Otherwise, no matter how I struggle, I will only sink deeper and deeper.”
The advice that he received from Feng Xia outside the Ancient Forsaken Land appeared in his heart again.
“Master, I don’t want to be a disciple of the Thousand Autumn Valley anymore!”
“Anyone else want to try?”
The corners of Feng Xia’s mouth twitched as he looked at the Embroidery light ball on the ground. However, in the end, he still absorbed it with a look of disdain. Then, he smiled and scanned the faces of everyone around him.
Everyone drew back their necks and lowered their heads. For a moment, no one dared to look at Feng Xia!
“I guess not today.”
After waiting for a moment and seeing that no one spoke up, Feng Xia waved his hand regretfully and said with a smile, “For the near future, I’ll be staying in the Thousand Autumn Valley temporarily. If there’s anyone who wants to fight and avenge your brothers and sister or anything else… you can come and look for me anytime.”
“Of course, the purpose with which you come to me will determine how you are beaten in the end.”
“If you’re not prepared… please be careful.”
With that, Feng Xia shook his head regretfully. He stared at the vicious gazes and waved his hand before leaving.
Zhu Youniang looked around and finally left with Feng Xia. Her eyes revealed a trace of regret. “In the end, no one told me where to find food…”
…
It was night.
The moon was high and bright while the stars were sparse.
At this hour, the disciples of the Thousand Autumn Valley would usually rest, meditate, or enter a deep contemplative state. A few would spend time with their loved ones.
However, under the current circumstances, most people were not in the mood.
Everything… was because of that uninvited guest!
“Feng Xia… Feng Xia! Where… did Lei Shao, the big old brute, find such a freak?”
The moon was bright and clear.
A handsome middle-aged man walked up a stone platform with extraordinary grace. There were lush and strange flowers and plants under his feet, and each of them emitted a faint spiritual energy. Fog filled the air, making the place look like a paradise.
He focused his eyes and looked far out into the night.
“Feng Xia… this person is indeed a variable. If necessary, we can eliminate him.”
After a long time, the handsome middle-aged man slowly retracted his gaze. He turned around and walked down the steps, muttering thoughtfully, “You’re all wrong. That barbarian, Lei Shao, is also wrong. We cannot fight the royal family of Xuanwu Kingdom head-on. Forcefully claiming victory will only lead to destruction. Only the path I choose… can truly save the Thousand Autumn Valley!”
When he returned to the valley, Ye Yi was already waiting there with a swollen face.
“Master, I’ve embarrassed you.”
Ye Yi looked ashamed and stammered.
