Emperor Qiankun

"This traitor!" Elder Kong's voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, containing endless anger and unspeakable helplessness.

His gaze seemed to be able to penetrate Wei Xuan's disguise and look directly into his betrayed soul.

Elder Xu also came back to his senses from his shock at this moment, and memories came flooding back like a tide. He recalled Wei Xuan's past performances, those moments that made him proud and regarded as the future hope of the sect.

However, reality is like a sharp knife, ruthlessly cutting off the beauty of the past and exposing the cruel reality.

He never expected that he would be betrayed by a disciple who was as close to him as a clan member, and that the entire sect would be pushed into an abyss of no return.

This heartache is deeper than any external injury!

Elder Xu clenched his hands into fists, his nails digging deep into his palms. Blood silently seeped out and dripped onto the ground, as if it was the embodiment of the anger in his heart.

In contrast, Ren Yuxuan's expression remained unchanged, as if she had anticipated this. Her eyes were deep, as if she was silently pondering something.

At this moment, Elder Xu suppressed the pain in his heart and mobilized all the profound strength in his body. In an instant, a sword shot towards Wei Xuan like a dragon. He wanted to kill this sinner!

However, just as the sword was about to touch Wei Xuan, an elder of the Yunyin Sect appeared between the two like a ghost and easily blocked the attack.

"Come back, Xuan'er." The elder's voice was filled with praise. "You did very well this time. Your years of forbearance and sacrifice were worth it."

Upon hearing this, Wei Xuan paused slightly and was about to respond.

"Shh."

Suddenly, a sharp sword light cut through the sky like lightning and headed straight for him.

He hurriedly dodged to the side, but even so, the sword energy still brushed across his cheek, leaving a deep bloody mark, and blood was now flowing down.

Wei Xuan turned around suddenly, a flash of anger in his eyes, and the anger in his heart was instantly ignited.

"How brave!"

He roared angrily, his entire body suddenly bursting out, the immense power of the third level of the Divine Hidden Realm surging wildly within him. His eyes were like torches, fixed firmly on the attacker.

He was a tall, handsome young man. This man was Li Qingyuan.

Li Qingyuan's black robe danced in the wind, and in his hand he held a long sword that shone with cold light and emitted a sharp sword energy.

Wei Xuan frowned slightly. He was sure that he did not know the person in front of him, but the other party had murderous intentions towards him!

Naturally, he would not sit and wait for death. He immediately swung the sword in his hand, performed a powerful sword technique, and killed Li Qingyuan.

Li Qingyuan's attack failed, but he did not stop his attack. Instead, he used the Seven Star Steps again. His figure flashed and he approached Wei Xuan quickly like a ghost.

He swung the sword in his hand repeatedly, and sword lights weaved together, rushing towards Wei Xuan with a fierce momentum.

Wei Xuan's face changed slightly, and he quickly waved the sword in his hand to resist.

There was a constant sound of "ding ding dang dang" as the long swords of both sides crossed and collided in the air, emitting countless sparks.

Another two breaths passed, and a cold light flashed in Li Qingyuan's eyes. He keenly caught a flaw in Wei Xuan's sword moves.

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Qingyuan quickly gathered all the profound strength in his body. This strength surged through his meridians like rivers converging, and finally gathered on the tip of the sword.

He shook his wrist, and the sword flashed like lightning, carrying the power to destroy the world, and suddenly swung towards Wei Xuan's neck.

At that moment, time seemed to freeze, and only a bright light remained in the air. It was the trajectory left by the sword cutting through the void, beautiful yet deadly.

Wei Xuan's eyes suddenly widened at this moment, his eyes full of disbelief and fear, as if he saw the end of his life.

Then he knelt on the ground, covering his neck with one hand and pointing at Li Qingyuan with the other. He seemed to want to say something, but he was unable to speak and bled to death.

The air around them seemed to freeze, and everyone stared at this scene with bated breath. Time became unusually slow at this moment.

The two exchanged blows for only a few breaths before Wei Xuan was dead. This scene was like an autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, cruel and decisive.

This scene made an elder of the Yunyin Sect extremely angry. He roared with hatred and murderous intent in his eyes. He gathered tremendous mysterious power in his hands, which turned into an invisible giant palm. With the power to destroy the world, he suddenly slapped Li Qingyuan.

At this critical moment, the beautiful woman Ren Yuxuan was like a dancing butterfly, lightly shuttling to the edge of the battlefield. With a graceful figure and a firm gaze, she faced the palm that was enough to shake the mountains without hesitation.

The sword light and palm wind intertwined, emitting a dazzling light, illuminating the space like daylight.

As the fierce battle between the two escalated, the air around them seemed to be ignited and the temperature rose sharply.

The elders of the Yunyin Sect and the Tianjian Sect also joined the melee. The five-to-three situation instantly put the Tianjian Sect at a disadvantage, but Elder Kong and the other two still gritted their teeth and persevered.

Swords clashed, palms roared, and the entire mine was shaken by their tremendous power, as if even the heaven and earth changed color.

However, in this chaotic battle, Li Qingyuan's eyes were unusually calm, as he had been looking for someone!

Suddenly, he keenly caught a glimpse of unusual movement.

Among the crowd of Tianjian Sect members, a figure was taking advantage of the chaos and retreating rapidly, trying to escape from the scene through the excavated tunnel.

That figure was Lu Ze.

"hehe!"

Li Qingyuan's lips curled up into a cold smile and said, "Want to escape? Not that easy!"

Then his figure flashed, and he shuttled through the battlefield like a ghost, heading straight for Lu Ze.

He used his profound power to perform the Seven Star Steps, and his speed was as fast as a gust of wind passing through the grassland, and he closed the distance between him and Lu Ze in an instant.

Seeing this, Lu Ze's face changed drastically. He didn't expect Li Qingyuan to be so keenly aware of his intentions, and he didn't expect him to take action so decisively.

However, it was already too late.

Just as Lu Ze stepped into the passage, a sharp sword light attacked from behind, as fast as lightning and as fierce as a poisonous snake.

Lu Ze's face changed and he quickly turned around to block with his sword. While he was blocking, Li Qingyuan had already come to his side and swung the sword in his hand quickly.

At this moment, a strange smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Lu Ze's mouth, as if everything was under control. He no longer hid it, and his cultivation of the seventh level of the Shenzang Realm was instantly released like a flood that broke through a dam.
