Creation of the Universe

Faced with the sudden change in the situation, Baili Yu was furious.

He took the Ruoshui Sword back into his palm, and his first target was not Shen Zhan, but Ding Yi, whose condition had deteriorated greatly due to injury.

Although he was extremely reluctant to admit it, among the generations of disciples in Wuya Taoist Academy, Ding Yi was undoubtedly the best. Not to mention Shangguan Jian, even he was somewhat afraid of this woman in his heart.

Otherwise, he would not have used Shangguan Jian and set a trap to ensure that he had more than a 90% chance of winning before he dared to attack Ding Yi.

"Junior Sister Ding Yi, now that you're here, don't rush to leave. Senior Brother is now the lord of Sword Forging City. If the two of us join forces, we can definitely create a great cause in Weihai Country, and your talent will be well spent. What do you think?"

Baili Yu deliberately spoke loudly while walking quickly forward to search. The power that Shen Zhan had just unleashed caused a strong wind to blow around, instantly blocking his vision.

But he could still feel the spiritual power in Ding Yi, so even if he couldn't see the situation in front of him for the time being, he roughly knew the location of the target. It would be fine if others escaped, but Ding Yi was a huge disaster.

At this moment, Baili Yu suddenly paused, and his left foot, which had just stepped out, hung in the air, and was retracted after a moment.

He sensed another spiritual power that should not be underestimated, not far in front of him. It was the aura of the young man who had just fought him on equal terms. Could it be that...

Baili Yu suddenly became alert. He used all his strength in his right hand to activate the Ruoshui Sword to protect himself. He quickly made a hand gesture with his left hand and shot out three cyclones from his palm, rushing straight forward.

These cyclones flew past rapidly, sweeping the dust they raised to the left and right, and his vision immediately became clear. Then the cyclones that flew out disappeared out of thin air. It was unknown what they had hit, and they dissipated silently!

“Swoosh~!”

“Whistle~”

The sound of breaking air suddenly came from the front. Baili Yu knew that it was the sound caused by the sword energy with powerful force passing through the air.

He did not dare to be careless and gathered all his spiritual power to prepare for defense. Sure enough, in the distance where he could see, one sword energy after another came straight towards him.

Baili Yu turned his wrist slightly, and the hilt of the sword in his palm moved the sword body to create gorgeous sword flowers in front of his chest. The spiritual power quickly intertwined around to form an air shield, which successfully resisted the sword energy. However, the good times did not last long, and the sword energy that followed suddenly became chaotic.

These sword energies came from the left and right sides and swept across the sky, covering a distance of nearly a hundred miles. The angles of the dozens of sword energies were different, and the targets of attack were no longer the same.

Such changes made Baili Yu secretly surprised. How could such an unknown young man become so experienced?

It turned out that the sword energy before was just a feint, the purpose of which was to make Baili Yu mistakenly believe that the attack method was very simple and lacked changes. After he thought he saw through this, the sword energy that followed was the real killing move, making it impossible to see the sword moves clearly in a short period of time.

Baili Yu snorted coldly. He thought he was an old and shrewd man, but today he was tricked by a young boy. It was really embarrassing!

He waved the Ruoshui Sword to block the incoming sword energy one by one. When the strong wind in front gradually stopped and the dust settled, Shen Zhan, Ding Yi and others disappeared without a trace.

"Lord City Lord, you... are injured."

The guards who rushed over found a scar on Baili Yu's cheek, which was slowly bleeding. It was caused by the sword energy just now.

Baili Yu was startled at first, then calmly wiped away the blood with the back of his hand and said in a deep voice: "From today on, you will guard the Black Peak Tower. Anyone who approaches this place will be executed on the spot, without mercy!"

"As you command, City Lord!"

After saying that, Baili Yu casually swung the Ruoshui Sword, and it flew into the air again, hanging under the plaque at the highest point of the Black Peak Tower.

"No matter what, no one can stop my plan. Even if my senior brother Taoist Tianlang comes in person, I will not let him go back alive!"

Baili Yu was filled with a murderous aura. He glanced at Shangguan Jian, who was lying on the ground, his body gradually becoming cold, and turned away indifferently.

At this time, in a pharmacy in the city, Tang Muqing hurriedly brought a basin of water to her uncle-master Ding Yi. The latter was sitting cross-legged, concentrating and regulating his breathing. The injury he suffered this time became even more serious after the previous slash.

Xia Wenxiu and Dong Ping knelt in front of Ding Yi, with mixed feelings in their hearts. If they had not acted rashly, they would not have to trouble their uncle to drag his injured body to help.

But they didn't dare to speak loudly at this time, for fear of disturbing Ding Yi's recovery. They could only kneel here silently to express their repentance.

Shen Zhan checked Ding Yi's condition from a distance, called Tang Muqing over, and said, "Let your brothers and sisters come out. Kneeling there will not help. The most important thing for your uncle now is to rest and recuperate. No one should disturb her."

Tang Muqing nodded.

Xia Wenxiu walked out of the inner room and said to Shen Zhan with great gratitude: "Mr. Shen, we have caused you trouble again."

"This time it's my fault. When I heard that Baili Yu stole the Ruoshui Sword and injured Master Ding Yi, I got carried away and just wanted to take the sword back. I didn't consider that with my low cultivation level, it was simply wishful thinking."

Shen Zhan didn't take the matter to heart and turned to the two of them, saying, "This Baili Yu seems to be trying to force your Wuya Daoyuan to submit to the Weihai royal family. Keeping this person around will cause endless trouble. We must find a chance to get rid of him. He may have planned some means to deal with you in the upcoming trial meeting, so we have to be careful."

Dong Ping said angrily, "When Baili Yu was still at the Taoist temple, he often argued with his master. He felt that what he learned at the Taoist temple should be used to intervene in power disputes. As long as he helped one side benefit, he would enjoy wealth and glory. However, this idea went against the original intention of the Taoist temple. The master never approved of Baili Yu's delusion.

In the end, the two parted ways. Baili Yu came to Weihai State and became the lord of Sword Forging City, but he still refused to let go of Wuya Daoyuan. It's a pity that I don't have that ability, otherwise I would definitely kill him! "

Shen Zhan nodded, "Is that sword important to you?"

Xia Wenxiu replied, "The Ruoshui Sword is the most precious treasure of our Wuya Taoist Temple. It was previously passed down from generation to generation by the headmaster. However, when it came to Master's generation, he directly handed it over to Senior Sister Ding Yi, saying that she was the most suitable person to protect the sword.

Uncle Ding Yi is obsessed with martial arts and left the mountain gate very early to travel around the world alone. It was only recently that he was entrusted by our master to come to the Sword-Forging City with the Ruoshui Sword. Our master was afraid that something might happen to us, so he asked Uncle Ding Yi to protect us.

As for the Ruoshui Sword, it symbolizes the inheritance of our sect and must not fall into the hands of a scum like Baili Yu!"
