After conquering the Empress, I proved my Dao with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace!

"Sir, you haven't paid yet."

Seeing Qin Zhantian standing there in a daze, the old man quickly spoke up, afraid that the man wouldn't pay.

Upon hearing this, Qin Zhantian snapped out of his daze, smiled, apologized, and tossed out a money pouch.

“Sigh… That’s too much. This trip will cost a total of eight hundred spirit crystals, but you have a thousand spirit crystals in your possession.”

After receiving the money bag, the old man immediately counted it.

Upon discovering more, he quickly spoke up and called out to Qin Zhantian, who was about to leave.

Qin Zhantian turned around and smiled, "I had already calculated it pretty much before I left."

This is all I have, and I'm giving it all to you. Thank you for keeping me company all the way here.

The old driver was taken aback and asked in surprise, "Aren't you going back?"

"go back…"

Looking in a certain direction, Qin Zhantian shook his head and smiled.

His smile carried a hint of emotion. He didn't say much, and turned to walk towards the Hundred Flowers Sect.

"What a strange person..."

Watching Qin Zhantian's departing figure, the old man couldn't help but shake his head.

Immediately, he drove the carriage away from the place.

Not long after, Qin Zhantian reached the steps and looked up.

A staircase strewn with flower petals leads all the way to the mountaintop, seemingly disappearing into the clouds.

A mountain gate can be vaguely seen at the top.

"As expected of one of the six major sects, they are truly magnificent. Chuan'er's Heavenly Sword Sect must be similar..."

Qin Zhantian smiled wryly, stepped onto the petal-strewn steps, and began to walk upwards.

"Halt! This is a restricted area of ​​the Hundred Flowers Sect. Unauthorized personnel are not permitted to enter!"

Before Qin Zhantian could take a few steps, four disciples of the Hundred Flowers Sect appeared and blocked his way.

As if he had expected this, Qin Zhantian was not surprised. He clasped his hands and said, "I am Qin Zhantian, here to take Yin Mei home!"

"No matter who you are, without an invitation or a decree from the sect, you cannot go up, otherwise..."

Among the four, a disciple of the Hundred Flowers Sect spoke slowly, his expression slightly cold.

Halfway through the conversation, a slightly older female disciple next to her suddenly tugged at her arm.

"Yu Qiu, I remember that person from the Cliff of Heartbreak, her name seems to be Yin Mei. I heard that she has a special relationship with Elder Liu."

"This person doesn't seem like someone who'll cause trouble. It would be best to inform Elder Liu first."

Upon hearing this, the disciple named Yu Qiu frowned slightly, but finally nodded.

She turned to look at Qin Zhantian and said coldly, "You wait here, I'll ask him for you."

"Thank you!"

Qin Zhantian smiled and clasped his hands in a fist salute.

Ignoring him, Yu Qiu took out a communication talisman from his storage ring and briefly recounted what had happened.

After a while, Yu Qiu received a reply from the communication talisman and looked up at Qin Zhantian in shock.

After a while, she calmed down and waved her hand, saying, "Elder Liu has ordered that you may go up."

"Thank you!"

Qin Zhantian clasped his hands in thanks, then walked past the four Hundred Flowers Sect disciples and headed towards the upper mountain gate.

"Yu Qiu, what did Elder Liu say just now? Why are you so surprised?"

After Qin Zhantian left, the older female disciple immediately asked.

The other two female disciples also curiously gathered around.

Taking a deep breath, Yu Qiu watched Qin Zhantian's departing figure and spoke with lingering fear.

"Elder Liu ordered us to bring this person up at all costs. If we dare to let him go, we will have to atone with our lives..."

Upon hearing this, the other three widened their eyes, their faces filled with shock.

They then understood why Yu Qiu had that expression earlier.

After a moment, the older female disciple frowned and said, "Right now that the acting sect leader is not in the sect, Elder Liu is in charge of all matters, big and small. There shouldn't be any trouble, right?"

"do not know."

Yu Qiu shook his head and guessed, "Something must be going to happen on the mountain later. Let's hurry up and go check it out."

A female disciple hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself, and said, "But here in our area..."

"Don't worry, hardly anyone comes to these mountain steps on ordinary days, so it won't make a difference if we stay a little longer."

The most important thing now is to keep an eye on that person from earlier, lest he escape and Elder Liu blame us again.

If you guys aren't going, I'll go by myself!

Without another word, Yu Qiu gracefully ascended upwards.

The remaining three exchanged glances, realizing that Yu Qiu's words made some sense, and immediately followed suit.

As the four of them left together, none of them noticed a figure following them from a distance...

Hundred Flowers Gate Mountain Gate.

At this moment, Liu Suhua, along with hundreds of Hundred Flowers Sect disciples, stood at the mountain gate.

The atmosphere on the field was heavy, and everyone was looking towards the mountain steps.

"What happened? Why is there such a big commotion?"

A female disciple of the Hundred Flowers Sect, who was confused about what had happened, looked at her friend and asked.

"I heard that someone came here to take Yin Mei from the Cliff of Heartbreak away, so Elder Liu gathered us together."

Another female disciple from the Hundred Flowers Sect explained in a low voice.

"Who would dare to take someone away from the Cliff of Heartbreak?"

The first female disciple from the Hundred Flowers Sect to ask a question widened her eyes, clearly somewhat surprised.

It should be noted that although the Cliff of Heartbreak is not a forbidden area of ​​the Hundred Flowers Sect, it is specifically used to imprison disciples who violate the sect's rules.

Throughout history, there has never been a case of anyone being able to take away a disciple imprisoned at the Cliff of Heartbreak.

"I heard it's..."

Another female disciple of the Hundred Flowers Sect was about to say something when she saw Liu Suhua's sharp eyes sweep over her.

She immediately lowered her head, not daring to say another word.

Watching everything unfold on the field, Song Jia, who had been standing to the side the whole time, frowned slightly, as if she had a feeling that something bad was going to happen.

Just when the atmosphere on the field was a bit dull.

Qin Zhantian, his temples streaked with white, walked up step by step.

He first showed his head, then his whole body, until he stood in front of everyone.

At the same time, all the disciples of the Hundred Flowers Sect saw that Qin Zhantian had a gleaming broadsword hanging at his waist.

"It's really you!"

Looking at Qin Zhantian's weathered face, Liu Suhua gave a cold smile.

That smile was full of sarcasm.

"it's me."

Qin Zhantian nodded and said in a deep voice, "I've come to take Amei home!"

Facing Liu Suhua, who was at the Xuanhuang Realm, and the thousands of Hundred Flowers Sect disciples behind her, he showed no fear whatsoever.

"Why?"

Liu Suhua smiled sarcastically, "Is it because of your Xuan Master level, or that high-grade magic weapon at your waist?"

Without answering Liu Suhua's question, Qin Zhantian took a deep breath and shouted with all his might.

"Amei, I've come to take you home!"

The voice contained profound power, and even though he was only at the Profound Master level, it still traveled quite a distance.

At this moment, on the Cliff of Heartbreak.

Yin Mei stared blankly at the distant mountain peaks, her expression expressionless, lost in thought.

Suddenly, she seemed to hear a voice, and her eyes widened abruptly.

His pale, haggard face was filled with disbelief.

At first, Yin Mei thought she had misheard.

But when she heard the second sound, she knew that the man had arrived.

"Battle against Heaven..."

She murmured softly, tears falling silently.
