Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

As the highest authority of the human race, the Human Alliance was given ample face even by powerful figures like Bing Linghua and Zhou Xingchen, who were at the Martial Saint realm, and they consciously lowered their attitudes.

Even if the one who appears is just an ordinary Martial Saint in the early stage, his strength is not necessarily stronger than the two of them.

"Fellow Daoists, what is the matter that has brought us to such a tense standoff? We are all fellow Daoists, why don't we sit down, have a cup of tea, and have a good chat?"

The Human Alliance Martial Saint who came to mediate, seeing that Bing Linghua and Zhou Xingchen were giving him face, spoke in a more amiable manner, his face carrying a standard dangerous glint, looking every bit the peacemaker trying to settle things.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Xingchen's reply rang out.

"This boy is Chu Yunfan, a disciple of the Star Sword Sect, and the murderer who killed Zhou Tianxing, the pride of my Zhou family."

I need to take it back to the Zhou family and give all the Zhou family members an explanation.

Elder Xiao of the Star Sword Sect has agreed to let me take the person away.

Fellow Daoist Bing of the Ice Spirit Sect also had no doubt.

We would like to ask you, fellow Daoist, to speak on behalf of the Human Alliance and give a definitive conclusion.

To prevent anyone from causing trouble here and then later accusing my Zhou family of abusing their power!

After speaking, Zhou Xingchen glanced at Shangguan Wan, his meaning quite clear.

Upon seeing this, the Human Alliance Martial Saint showed a surprised expression, glancing at Bing Linghua and Xiao Laji respectively.

Seeing that Bing Linghua did not react, Xiao Laji nodded in agreement.

The Human Alliance Martial Saint's gaze finally settled on Shangguan Wan, and he spoke:

"Little girl, for this grand gathering of geniuses, your Qingyun Sword Sect will be led by Elder Xiao."

Therefore, Elder Xiao's decision represents the decision of the Qingyun Sword Sect.

"Now that Elder Xiao has agreed to let the Zhou family take the person away, you should stop making a scene and disrupting the order of the Heavenly Pride Gathering!"

Towards the end, the Human Alliance Martial Saint's tone became noticeably firmer.

The meaning is clear: it's a warning to Shangguan Wan to stop making a scene and disrupting order.

In fact, what Shangguan Wan didn't know was that the powerful members of the Human Alliance had already noticed the commotion here.

However, in order to avoid offending the Zhou family, the Ice Spirit Sect, or the Azure Cloud Sword Sect, these three forces...

The powerful members of the human alliance pretended not to see it and chose to watch coldly from the sidelines.

It wasn't until Shangguan Wan's words alarmed everyone that the Human Alliance sent this Martial Saint to handle the situation in order to prevent it from escalating.

Of course, calling it a "handling" was really just a way of doing the Zhou family a favor, then warning Shangguan Wan not to cause any more trouble, and settling things down. There was no intention of upholding justice for Shangguan Wan at all.

Upon hearing the words of the Human Alliance Martial Saint, Shangguan Wan's expression instantly turned extremely ugly. With her intelligence, she naturally understood the meaning behind the Human Alliance Martial Saint's words.

When the other party arrived, they didn't ask about the specific details of the incident from beginning to end, didn't understand that Zhou Tianxing died by self-destruction, and didn't even ask whether Chu Yunfan was the murderer.

It seems that as long as the Zhou family wants the person, and the Qingyun Sword Sect and the Ice Spirit Sect don't object, everyone will be happy.

Finally, they even warned her, as if she were deliberately causing trouble.

For a moment, Shangguan Wan was filled with mixed feelings, unsure of what to do next.

However, she remained steadfastly in front of Chu Yunfan, preventing the Zhou family from taking him away directly.

As for Shen Muyan, she also silently moved her body in front of Chu Yunfan and continued to heal Chu Yunfan's injuries.

However, in the face of overwhelming power, so-called perseverance is of no use.

Zhou Xingchen stretched out his right hand and gently waved his sleeve, causing Shangguan Wan and Shen Muyan's bodies to fly away involuntarily into the distance.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Xingchen signaled to the rest of the Zhou family members to quickly take Chu Yunfan away.

However, what Zhou Xingchen didn't expect was...

Just then, Nalan Xue, who had remained silent all along, suddenly stood in front of Chu Yunfan, stopping the Zhou family from taking action.

"He is my man, Nalan Xue's man, and also a member of the Ice Spirit Sect."

Your Zhou family has no right to take him away!

When she said this, Nalan Xue did not look at the Zhou family, but turned to stare at Bing Linghua, her eyes revealing a firm determination.

Nalan Xue knew that at this moment, only Bing Linghua could stop the Zhou family from taking Chu Yunfan away.

Nalan Xue knew even better that once the Zhou family took Chu Yunfan away...

What awaited Chu Yunfan was only death, or even an ending more painful than death.

Therefore, Nalan Xue risked her reputation to say those words.

Only in this way will Bing Linghua be willing to take action.

Sure enough, when Bing Linghua heard Nalan Xue say that Chu Yunfan was her man, her expression changed instantly, and she stared at Nalan Xue in surprise.

You should know that Nalan Xue is the Holy Maiden of the Ice Spirit Sect.

Saying something like that in public is no joke.

Zhou Xingchen clearly understood the weight of those words, especially when he saw Bing Linghua's reaction. He acted decisively, teleporting to Chu Yunfan's side and taking Chu Yunfan away.

The speed was so fast that even Nalan Xue, who was standing next to Chu Yunfan, didn't have time to react.

Bing Linghua's expression turned extremely ugly.

Just now, she was only slightly surprised by Nalan Xue's words and did not make a decision immediately.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Xingchen disregarded his reputation and, as a Martial Saint, personally took action against Chu Yunfan.

Now that Chu Yunfan has fallen into Zhou Xingchen's hands, the only way to get him back is for her to have a major battle with Zhou Xingchen.

However, the fact that Bing Linghua had chosen to completely break ties with the Zhou family and directly attack Zhou Xingchen for Chu Yunfan's sake was a difficult situation for her.

At the same time, Nalan Xue's face was already as cold as frost.

She had just opened her mouth to try and save Chu Yunfan when the Zhou family snatched him away the next second.

This behavior is tantamount to trampling on her dignity and wantonly disregarding it.

Then, without any warning, Nalan Xue suddenly made a move, freezing the two Zhou family members beside her into ice pops.

Immediately afterwards, Nalan Xue looked at Zhou Xingchen with an icy tone.

"If you take him away, then leave two members of the Zhou family behind to be buried with him!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present was shocked.

The Martial Saint from the Human Alliance was the first to step forward and smooth things over.

"We are all pillars of the human race, why do we have to treat each other like enemies, facing each other to the death!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Bing Linghua appeared beside Nalan Xue, looked at Zhou Xingchen, and said coldly:

“Fellow Daoist Zhou, your actions show a complete disregard for my Ice Spirit Sect.”

"You think you can just take people away today? Not so easy!"

After much internal struggle, Bing Linghua ultimately chose to stand up for Nalan Xue.

At the same time, Bing Linghua took direct action, taking control of the two Zhou family members who had been frozen by Nalan Xue, to prevent Zhou Xingchen from shamelessly snatching them away himself again.

Bing Linghua's actions were clearly a declaration of war against Zhou Xingchen.
