All beasts submit, and the peerless imperial princess is about to defy the heavens!

After traveling for about half a day, they arrived at the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although they had traveled at a high speed, they had been holding their breath, fearing that something might happen along the way.

Feng Ning was quite at ease. She didn't need to control her sword or look at the direction, so she happily sat on the sword and enjoyed the scenery.

To be honest, the scenery of Cangnan Continent is quite nice.

She couldn't help but think of the Xuanling Continent, wondering how things were going there.

The matter of Xiao Yi has not yet been resolved, and she has suddenly entered a meditative state, which may have also slowed down Nian Zhao's progress.

Just as she had thought, the situation on the Xuanling Continent was not as optimistic as she had imagined.

Not long after Feng Ning entered meditation, the sect leader had already sent people to deliver the Zhaoxiao Array to various cities.

The Xuanling Continent is not small. What we have made so far is only enough for one city to have, and there is no more.

Furthermore, in order to ensure that these illuminating formations are used for the right purposes, the Tianxuan Sect must ensure that these formations are in the hands of its own people.

Therefore, the Tianxuan Sect dispatched its elite disciples, carrying these formations, to various cities to oversee their operations.

If any Xiao Yi is detected, kill it immediately.

Their actions naturally alerted Xiao Yi.

They were very cunning. After being discovered, they fought back fiercely, injuring many people and allowing many others to escape.

For a time, the entire Xuanling Continent was filled with fear, lest they encounter the Xiao Yi.

And because everyone became wary, many people began to be suspicious and doubtful of those around them.

Once someone has this suspicion, it's either a murder for no apparent reason.

Alternatively, they would bring the person before the disciples of the Tianxuan Sect in order to ascertain their true identity.

Furthermore, because of this incident, the relatives and friends of many innocent people who were killed immediately held Tianxuan Sect accountable.

They said it was all because of the Tianxuan Sect that this trouble arose, resulting in the deaths of their family members.

After discovering this, the people of Tianxuan Sect immediately responded.

The sect leader is usually good-tempered, but this time he was unusually ruthless.

If anyone uses this incident to provoke us, kill them all without exception.

Those who kill without cause under the guise of the supernatural will be subject to execution by the Tianxuan Sect if they are discovered by the sect. All sects will then rise up against them.

When the time comes, no matter who or what faction made the move, we will leave no one alive.

This immediately shocked everyone.

If anyone feels something is amiss, they can take the person to the guards of the Tianxuan Sect, and then it will be proven whether they are a demon or not.

If so, they will be executed by the Tianxuan Sect; if not, they will be released.

If you can't bring it all, you can ask someone from the Tianxuan Sect to investigate.

From then on, no one dared to use this incident to cause trouble or settle personal scores.

The turmoil quickly subsided, and everyone's lives soon returned to normal.

However, the Xiao Yi still lurked in the shadows, and the crisis still existed, but the panic it caused had decreased considerably.

On Xiaoyao Peak, Wen Yao and Nian Zhao were still guarding their two disciples.

But they were, after all, elders of the sect, and they couldn't rely on just one person. So the two of them took turns going out to handle matters within the sect.

Just as Feng Ning was lost in thought, Lin Xian'er's voice came over, "Junior Sister, we've arrived."

Feng Ning turned her head and saw the towering mountains in front of her, with their layers upon layers of peaks.

"Senior Sister Lin, you wouldn't be suggesting that this entire mountain range belongs to the Myriad Swords Sect, would you?"

Senior Sister Lin smiled without saying a word.

The woman raised her chin and said, "Look at your ignorant attitude. The Myriad Swords Sect is huge. What you see now is only a small part. You're surprised by that?"

Feng Ning was speechless, then turned to Lin Xian'er and asked, "Senior Sister Lin, who exactly is this person?"

Lin Xian'er replied with a smile, "I thought you weren't going to ask me anymore."

Feng Ning didn't quite understand what she meant, but she waited for her to continue.

"Her name is Qin Ya, and she is the sect leader's daughter."

Then he leaned closer to Feng Ning and said, "Qin Ya likes Senior Brother. I advise you not to get too close to Senior Brother, otherwise if Junior Sister Qin Ya makes things difficult for you, I'm afraid you won't have a good time in the sect."

Feng Ning smiled and said, "Don't worry, Senior Sister Lin. I'm a student of formations, and I'm not with those sword cultivators, so we won't see each other."

Lin Xian'er remained noncommittal, simply nodding silently.

Chu Anyi looked at the two of them and said, "Alright, let's go inside first."

"Yes, Senior Brother." Lin Xian'er had already started walking forward on her own.

Feng Ning followed along, and Chu An waited until she reached his side before saying, "With your talent, you could easily join the Myriad Swords Sect. Come with me in a moment, and I'll take you to see the sect leader."

Feng Ning thought for a moment and nodded.

She wouldn't be staying here long anyway, so she might as well quietly join the Array Academy, without causing too much of a commotion, and run away as soon as she learns the teleportation array.

Anyway, I'll come again in the future. And when I do, we might meet again. We'll see then.

She looks like she's changed her appearance; when they see her again, they probably won't recognize her.

I hope I'll have another chance to repay this kindness to them in the future.

The group walked forward and dispersed after entering the sect.

Chu An took Feng Ning to find the sect leader, but Qin Ya objected.

"Senior Brother! Where are you taking her?"

Chu An smiled and said, "Feng Ning has great talent. I plan to take her to see my master."

Qin Ya angrily blocked their way. "I won't let you leave! Since she's a new disciple, she should participate in the disciple competition. Why should she get in through the back door?"

Chu An frowned. "That's true, but..." Her talent is truly exceptional.

Before he could finish his sentence, Qin Ya interrupted him.

"Then let her participate. Is she afraid to?"

Feng Ning felt helpless; she really didn't want to attract too much attention.

"Yes, yes, I don't dare, I don't dare to participate, is that alright?"

Qin Ya choked, "You! You!"

Who does that? Just because someone says she's not as good as others, she admits it?

"Don't you have any backbone? How can you say you don't dare? Shouldn't you be saying you want to participate at this time?"

Feng Ning smiled brightly, "Senior sister is joking. It's just a competition for new disciples. It doesn't matter whether I participate or not. Anyway, with my talent, even if I don't pass the grand competition, you will still accept me."

Qin Ya was about to make another sarcastic remark when she heard a voice coming from inside the main hall.

"Are An Yi and Ya'er back?"

Upon hearing the sounds coming from inside, Chu An ignored Qin Ya's dissatisfaction and led Feng Ning inside.
