The goofy junior sister is the most eccentric person in the entire cultivation world.

But the fact is, the Star Palace did not come.

Not only did Ling Tian and the others not arrive, but the entire cultivation world discovered that the Star Palace had "disappeared."

At the foot of Tongtian Mountain, hundreds of sects and hundreds of thousands of cultivators have gathered.

Everyone inquired about each other and discussed it animatedly.

"Has the Star Palace, which is currently riding high, arrived?"

"I didn't see it."

"What if they're too scared to come?"

"Possibly. If we offend Wanbaoge, who would dare to come and die?"

"What a pity, I was hoping to meet Shen Rugo."

"I think it's all just bragging. The claim of escaping from a peak Nascent Soul cultivator is all fake."

"That makes sense, otherwise why wouldn't they dare to come?"

……

There are all sorts of opinions circulating.

"President, what do we do now?"

At the ambush site of Wanbaoge, an elder asked cautiously.

Ling Tian gritted his teeth and said, "Keep waiting! There are still five days left. I don't believe they won't come!"

But inside, he was already panicking.

If the Star Palace really doesn't come, then all his previous arrangements will be in vain.

In order to unite the nine major sects to suppress the Star Palace, he promised 50% of the profits from the Western Regions' mineral resources.

That's an astronomical figure, enough to cripple Wanbaoge.

If the Star Palace doesn't come, the nine major sects don't need to take action, but the promised minerals must still be delivered, because the alliance has already been established and is bound by the Heavenly Dao.

That would truly be a case of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead.

"puff!"

Thinking of this, Ling Tian was overcome with anger and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"President!"

The elders were greatly alarmed.

Ling Tian waved his hand, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with resentment: "Star Palace, what a Star Palace! If they dare to play me, I will make sure they all die!"

Just then, the Blood Coffin Ancestor's icy voice rang out, "Ling Tian, ​​is this what you said they would definitely come? We haven't even seen a ghost yet?"

Ling Tian shuddered, but he quickly said loudly, "Ancestor, let's wait a little longer, there are still a few days. Don't worry, they will definitely come. With their arrogance, they will not give up this sect competition."

"Okay, let's wait a few more days. I hope you're right!"

"If they dare to come, even during the sect competition, I will slaughter them all, leaving no one alive, to vent my hatred!"

The Blood Coffin Ancestor's voice was icy cold.

"Ancestor, do you mean you're going to take action personally?"

Lin Tian was shocked to hear this.

"That brat ruined my arm, I have to kill her myself to vent my anger!"

"But Ancestor, the sect competition is overseen by the ten major sects, and there are also restrictions on Tongtian Mountain. If you were to take action personally..."

"I know my limits, you don't need to remind me."

The Blood Coffin Ancestor interrupted Ling Tian, ​​his scarlet eyes flashing with endless murderous intent.

Shen Rugo cutting off his arm was a great humiliation for him.

More importantly, it damaged his very essence, drastically reducing his already limited lifespan. Even with the most miraculous elixirs and supreme medicines, he could not extend his life by another thousand years.

Therefore, the person he hates the most right now is Shen Rugo.

Meanwhile, in Zhongzhou, Shen Rugo and the others had arrived safely.

Zhongzhou, an unnamed mountain range.

Inside a hidden cave, the teleportation array flickered, and the people from the Star Palace emerged one after another.

"We've arrived," Qinghe Daoist said with a smile. "This place is 50,000 li away from Tongtian Mountain. At the speed of the Myriad Realms Dragon Warship, we can arrive in half a day."

Shen Rugo nodded and took out the Myriad Realms Dragon Warship.

The warship grew longer as it faced the wind, transforming into a colossal vessel hundreds of feet long, hovering in mid-air.

The ship has a beautiful streamlined hull and its surface is covered with shimmering runes.

"Board the ship."

As everyone boarded the ship one after another, Shen Rugo steered the warship, transforming it into a streak of light and flying towards Tongtian Mountain.

The warships were extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye they had flown thousands of miles.

However, after flying for less than an hour, Shen Rugo suddenly frowned.

"Stop."

The warship slowly came to a stop in the air.

"what happened?"

"The Star Daoist asked."

Shen Rugo did not answer, but instead released her divine sense to explore her surroundings.

After breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, her spiritual sense range increased dramatically, now covering an area of ​​a thousand miles, no less than that of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

This investigation indeed revealed something unusual.

Thousands of miles away, a group of cultivators hid in a large mountain, cursing and swearing.

"Damn Star Palace, we've been waiting for over ten days in vain, exposed to wind and sun!"

"If I catch them, I'll definitely tear their souls apart and refine their spirits!"

A cold glint flashed in Shen Rugo's eyes.

She recognized one of them, the Second Elder of Wanbao Pavilion, who was at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

She had met this person once before at the Wanbao Pavilion in Yujing City, Zhongyu.

What concerned her even more was that among this group were two Nascent Soul cultivators, thirty Enlightened Ones, and the rest were all late-stage Golden Core cultivators.

"Wanbaoge did indeed set up an ambush, but this is not their main force; Ling Tian and Blood Coffin Ancestor are not here."

Shen Rugo sneered.

"How to do?"

Xiao Changkong asked.

Shen Rugo shook her head: "Since we've run into them, how can we let them make a wasted trip?"

She looked at the lucky charm on her shoulder: "Lucky Charm, didn't you want to test your skills?"

Zhao Cai's eyes lit up: "Your Highness, do you need me to help?"

"I'll give you three breaths. Apart from those two Nascent Soul cultivators, leave no one else alive."

"Order!"

Zhao Cai let out an excited cry and transformed into a golden light, rushing out of the warship.

Thousands of miles away, a group of people from Wanbaoge were still cursing and swearing.

The Second Elder's face turned ashen: "The President is really something. He has already set up an ambush with the Blood Coffin Ancestor at the Star Palace's inevitable route on the border of the Central and Western Regions. The Star Palace will surely be wiped out. Yet he still wants us to set up an ambush here as well. He is being far too cautious!"

"Better safe than sorry. The Star Palace has utterly disgraced our Myriad Treasures Pavilion; they must all die!"

Another Nascent Soul cultivator, Ling Zhan, the First Protector of Wanbao Pavilion, said in a deep voice.

All five guardians are Nascent Soul cultivators, with the First Guardian Ling Zhan being the most powerful, second only to the Guild Master Ling Tian.

However, four of the five guardians—Xuan Yang, Xuan Ming, Xuan Tian, ​​and Xuan Yue—have all died at Shen Rugo's hands.

"Great Protector, do you really think the Star Palace dares to participate in the sect competition?"

The Second Elder asked.

"The sect competition is related to the ranking of sects and is the biggest event in the cultivation world of our Tianyuan Continent. If we don't come, the Star Palace will become a laughing stock and will never be able to hold its head up again."

"Haha, that's good! We've laid a trap; if those bastards dare to come, they're doomed..."

Before the two could finish speaking, a sudden change occurred!

"boom!"

A ball of golden flame descended from the sky without warning, instantly engulfing dozens of Golden Core cultivators.

"what!"

The screams lasted only a moment before the dozens of people turned to ashes, leaving not even a trace.

"Enemy attack!"

Ling Zhan's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly activated his protective spiritual light.

The second elder also realized what was happening, but he was still a step too late.

The golden flames followed closely, catching up with the other thirty-odd Nascent Soul cultivators.

"No!"

Those Nascent Soul cultivators fought desperately, but their defenses were as fragile as paper in the face of the golden flames, and were instantly burned through.

"Puff puff……"

With a series of muffled thuds, another thirty-odd people turned to ashes.

In just three breaths, the team of over a hundred people was reduced to only Ling Zhan and the Second Elder.

"who?!"

Ling Zhan was both shocked and furious, frantically scanning his surroundings with his divine sense.
