There were five types of people in the Sky Origin Realm who entered the Holy City: the Thunderblaze Dynasty, the Starfall Dynasty, the Northern Wei Dynasty, the various sects, and the rogue cultivators.
The experts of the Thunderblaze Dynasty's Hall of Worship had already entered and plundered more than half of the secret realm.
Among the remaining people, there were Leng Shiqi's targets!
They were the experts of the Starfall Dynasty and the Northern Wei Dynasty's Hall of Worship!
As the top fighting force of each dynasty, they were also the pillars of the dynasty. If these experts died in the Holy City, the overall strength of the two dynasties would drop by seventy to eighty percent!
Although not all of the Sky Origin Stage cultivators were here, and some of the important places needed to be guarded, those who were scattered all over the place wouldn't be able to do much.
Not far from Yu Shu, there were two experts from the Northern Wei Empire. Coincidentally, they were in the vicinity and soon met each other.
Nether Qi surrounded Yushu, and four figures walked out. They were Ming Yue Ghost Emperor, Delta Aurigae.
Wu Jin Ghost Emperor, Wu Xiang.
King Pingdeng, Xiong Ming.
King Yanluo, Eunuch Gao.
And King Bian Cheng, Hateful Blade!
Hateful Blade did not enter the passage with Leng Shiqi. First of all, he had just entered the Tongxuan Realm. His strength could be said to be at the top of the continent, but compared to the Tongxuan Realm, he was still too far away.
Not only did Hateful Blade have to guard the Blood Robe Pavilion, but he also had to kill the experts of the other dynasties!
A few people walked out of the Nether Qi with murderous intent, and instantly surrounded the two people.
The two immediately felt the gloomy Qi around them, and several dense killing intent enveloped their bodies. Hateful Blade's cold gaze, which pierced through their souls, made them lose the desire to fight.
"Everyone, is there a misunderstanding?"
"There are no treasures here. No, I still have some good things on me. I'll give them all to you!"
The two were so scared that they almost knelt down and begged for mercy. The dignity of the Sky Origin Realm was thrown out of the window.
The battle ended very quickly, leaving behind only two broken bones.
The whole process only took a short while. Hateful Blade did not make a move, treating it as a training for the younger generation.
Leng Shiqi had already informed them through the Mansion of the Dead that there were only Wuma Yuanjie and the other three Mystic Comprehending cultivators in the Arcane Realm.
Among them, Old Master Qiao was still on their side. Most likely, Spiritual Venerable Wu Ji would not get involved in Dynasty's battle. Therefore, as long as they avoided Wuma Yuanjie and Chen Xin, they could do whatever they wanted.
Thus, a cold and sharp knife appeared in the mystic realm. They did not explore the ruins, nor did they fight for treasures. Instead, they killed everyone they saw!
It did not take long for news of their whereabouts to spread, causing many people to feel uneasy. However, after careful investigation, they discovered that the people who died were all from the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Starfall Dynasty.
Was this a coincidence, or was it intentional?
No matter what the situation was, the experts of the two Empires all felt that they were in danger. They stopped looking for treasures and started to group up to save themselves.
Even so, there were still people dying tragically!
Yushu and the others had actually split up. Once they discovered their target, they would use the Underworld to instantly gather. Hence, their whereabouts could be said to be elusive, making it impossible to guard against them.
Wuma Yuanjie and Chen Xin naturally knew that someone was assassinating their experts. They were immediately furious.
It was obvious that it was the Thunderfire Dynasty's doing. The two of them even wanted to personally slaughter the experts of the Thunderfire Dynasty. However, Old Master Qiao had not joined the sect. With him around, it was impossible for them to do so.
Therefore, Wuma Yuanjie and Chen Xin worked together for the first time. They directly went to Old Master Qiao and suspected that he had done something secretly.
At first, Old Master Qiao was very confused when he learned about this. He did not give such an order. After asking around, he found that the Heavenly Origin Realm experts of the Thunderfire Dynasty did not receive any orders from His Majesty.
This meant that the assassins were not from the Hall of Worship!
That was strange.
Those who died were all experts from the other two Empires. At present, roughly half of the experts of the two Empires had died!
To them, this was definitely a huge loss!
The Starfall Dynasty had a deep foundation and could barely bear it. However, the Northern Wei Dynasty only had less than ten Heavenly Origin Realm experts left. It was a pity to see them like this.
The heavy losses of the two Empires were naturally great news for the Thunderfire Dynasty. After they left the Holy City, the Thunderfire Dynasty's authority on the continent would rise.
Wuma Yuanjie questioned, "Old Master Qiao, did you allow your subordinates to slaughter the experts of our Hall of Worship?"
Chen Xin did not say anything. However, sword light flashed in his eyes. It was as if he would attack at any moment.
For the Northern Wei Dynasty, he was willing to take only one star. For the Northern Wei Dynasty, he was willing to give up the opportunity to join the sect.
However, it did not take long for more than half of the experts they worshipped to die!
This completely infuriated Chen Xin.
Old Master Qiao was overjoyed. However, he put on a solemn expression and said, "Why do you say that, Brother Wuma? You should know that the people of the Thunderfire Dynasty have been tightly gathered since the beginning. No one acted alone. This is obvious to all.
Moreover, the people who entered the Holy City this time are all famous. There are countless people who know them. If anyone acts alone, they will definitely be recognized.
Even if their appearance can be hidden, their cultivation base and spiritual techniques cannot be hidden.
As far as I know, the people who slaughtered your subordinates all cultivated extreme Yin techniques. They are definitely not from the Thunderfire Dynasty.
I reckon that the reason they did this is to sow discord and make the three of us fight in the Holy City!
The most important thing now is not to question the Thunderfire Dynasty, but to dig out those people as soon as possible and skin them alive! "
There were no loopholes in Old Master Qiao's words. First, he removed himself from suspicion. Then, he pointed the finger at someone else. In the end, his face was filled with righteous indignation.
"It really isn't you?"
Wuma Yuanjie stared into Old Master Qiao's eyes. It was as if he wanted to see through him. However, he could not see anything strange.
Chen Xin also started to waver. Just as the few of them were in a deadlock, a shocking saber light slashed at them from the horizon!
The saber light was like a black waterfall. The Qi of the Netherworld corroded the heaven and earth. This was an extreme Yin saber light. It was as if it could destroy the world!
Wuma Yuanjie, Chen Xin, and Old Master Qiao all frowned. Where did this Metaphysical Realm cultivator come from?
Chen Xin, who was filled with anger, stabbed his sword. The dazzling sword light pierced the sky. The pure sword intent was extremely beautiful. In everyone's eyes, the heaven and earth seemed to have lost their color.
This stunning sword cut through the Netherworld saber light. The few of them finally saw the attacker. It was a man covered in a gorgeous black robe. The Qi of the Netherworld surged around him, making him look like a demon.
"Who are you? Did you kill my subordinates?" Chen Xin asked coldly.
The man raised the short saber in his hand and said, "Underworld, King Bian Cheng."
