  New book stage, extremely need all Taoist friends' recommendation ticket support, those with tickets in hand please support then, Idle Cloud thanks you.

  The majestic mountains, the Taicheng Sect's leader, Zheng Zhenren, was sitting on a jade stone about the size of a zhang, seemingly in meditation.

  Suddenly, a streak of green light flew into the Tai Shang Palace, and Zhuge Zhenren slightly raised his hand. The green light entered his hand, which turned out to be a message-transmitting jade slip.

  A wisp of divine consciousness entered the jade slip, and a middle-aged man in green clothes suddenly appeared in front of him, his sword suspended in mid-air. He spoke respectfully: "Reporting to the Master, the disciple Wú Chén has already caught up with the Chu family on their way to the Jiǔ Huāng Zé Road. Please instruct on how to proceed."

  "The Chu family's cold and cruel actions have defiled the sacred body of the Holy Maiden, the entire Chu clan cannot be spared." Zhuge True Person closed his eyes, unmoving, with a faint glimmer of divine light in his eyes, speaking lightly.

  In the distant skies above the borders of the Great Yu Dynasty, thousands of miles away, a man in green robes revealed a solemn expression, and bowed to the illusory figure of Zhuge Zhenren before him, respectfully responding: "I humbly obey the orders of the Lord."

  As the voice of Wú Chén Dào Rén faded away, the illusory figure before him vanished. His gaze immediately focused on the rugged mountain path below, where a continuous stream of people could be seen stretching for several miles.

  "Cultivators originally disdain killing ordinary people, but the Chu Clan is an exception..."

  The dustless Taoist's eyes revealed a killing intent, and he had already ridden his sword to charge down, with the target directly pointing at the thousands of Chu surname clansmen below.

  "It's not my fault, it's your clan leader's fault. He shouldn't have had any dealings with the noble and sacred daughter of the Taichu Clan." Wucheng Daoren was one of the eighteen disciples under Zhuge Zhenren, and at the age of thirty, he had cultivated a powerful body that could reach the ninth heaven. Even in the cultivation world, this was extremely impressive. To kill the over a thousand ordinary people below him would be no difficulty at all.

  On the rugged mountain road, the Chu clan people who were sent to the Nine Desolate Swamps never thought that a calamity would descend from the sky. Wudang Daoist's murderous nature was extremely heavy, which is also the main reason why Zhuge True Person sent him here. Even when facing ordinary humans with no ability to resist, Wudang showed not a hint of mercy.

  As soon as he made his move, it was the extremely powerful killing technique "Mystic Ice Slash", a gigantic ice blade several meters long condensed and shot out, carrying a terrifying chill towards the rear of the Chu Clan's vehicle team.

  For a moment, the mournful cries were endless. Under "Xuan Bing Jian", ordinary people had no way to resist, and in just a few breaths, nearly a hundred people lost their lives. Only then did the momentum of "Xuan Bing Jian" gradually dissipate, transforming into a string of sparkling ice crystals that vanished into thin air.

  "Cutting Moon Sword, go!"

  Ignoring the corpses littered before him, Wudang Daoist's sword changed direction in his hand, and the flying swords under his feet shot out like lightning, beginning to crazily harvest the lives of the Chu family members in front of him.

  The team's front position, the five great elders of the Chu family rushed to a horse-drawn carriage, "Head of the clan, Taiching Sect is determined to wipe us out. Now that their people have not yet arrived here, we old men will protect you and escape from this place first."

  The five great elders of the Chu family are the most powerful figures in the Chu family line, all of whom have set foot on the path of cultivation. Although they are limited by their innate talents, the strongest elder only has the power of a three-heavenly realm cultivator, but in the mortal world, they are already extremely powerful existences.

  "Taiqing Sect again!"

  Chu Chenhan, who was already pale due to his internal injuries, suddenly heard these words and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. He forced himself out of the carriage, his eyes turning red as he said: "You've kidnapped my beloved wife and destroyed my entire family... even if I, Chu Chenhan, were to turn to dust, I would still become a vengeful spirit to haunt you..."

  Due to the severity of his internal injuries and the constant mournful cries of the Chu clan members by his ear, Chu Xinghan had not even finished speaking when he fainted.

  The Great Elder saw the situation and immediately supported Chu Chenhan, who had fainted, and gritted his teeth to the four great elders beside him: "Heaven has brought disaster to my Chu family. As long as the patriarch does not die, there will be a day of resurgence. Old Five, you carry the patriarch and quickly escape from here. Old Four, Old Three, each of you carry one person who looks like the patriarch and escape in two other directions to confuse the enemy. Old Two, you and I will sacrifice ourselves to entangle the incoming people. Even if it's just for a moment, it's worth it."

  At this critical juncture, the elder said, and the rest followed his instructions.

  When the three elders and four elders each found a clansman with a physique similar to Chu Chenhan, they carried him on their backs and rushed in two different directions. At this time, the imperial envoy "Zhan Yue Sword" Wucheng Daoist had already arrived within 100 meters of where Chu Chenhan was sitting.

  "Want to run? Leave me behind."

  Suddenly, Wu Dun's cold laughter was heard, and the "Beheading Moon Sword" stained with crimson blood appeared out of thin air. In just a blink of an eye, it had already pierced through the three elders who were fleeing westward, along with the people they were carrying on their backs.

  "A mere mortal with two layers of heavenly strength dares to show off in front of me? Hmph."

  At this moment, he had already killed nearly five hundred Wudang Taoist priests. His face grew more and more ferocious. The sword changed its direction once again. "Zhan Yue Sword" suddenly made a turn, with the speed of lightning, and struck at the four elders who were fleeing in another direction.

  "Old Two, let's go..."

  Astonished by the enemy's terrifying combat power, the Great Elder suddenly let out a loud roar and charged forward with the Second Elder, who had already fallen into extreme grief and anger, towards the Dustless Dao person rushing towards them from the front. At the same time, the Fifth Elder turned around and fled northward with Chu Xuanhan, who was still unconscious, on his back.

  "A mantis trying to stop a chariot, overestimating one's own strength." Wu Chen Dao Ren sneered repeatedly, and two yellow awns suddenly appeared at his fingertips, shooting straight at the two great Chu elders in front of him. At the same time, he wielded the "Beheading Moon Sword" and beheaded the person on the back of each of the four elders who had already escaped over a hundred yards away.

  The five great elders of the Chu family, each with a cultivation base at the Human Stage, were extremely powerful existences in the mortal world. However, in front of Wú Chén, a strong practitioner from the Ninth Heaven of the Jīn Jiè stage, they were no different from infants.

  Seeing Huang Mang and his body, Da Zhang Lao and Er Zhang Lao both showed a desperate look. They were not afraid of death, but they had to die with value.

  Suddenly, the sword pierced through the chest of the two elders. They were already beyond salvation, but with their last bit of strength, they shifted their bodies several feet to block the fatal blow for the Grand Elder, and then they breathed their last.

  "Old Two……" Witnessing the tragic death of his brothers, the elder's eyes were about to split open, but he saw a green light surge around him. With a single pounce, he had already reached within several feet of Wucheng Daoist.

  "Wanting to self-destruct the true yuan? Too naive." Wudun Dao Ren casually threw out a Vajra seal, and a layer of yellowish-brown light shield suddenly appeared around his body.

  A loud "boom" shook the air, and the massive shockwave generated by the self-destruction of the Great Elder's true yuan forced the Dustless Daoist to halt his footsteps. However, in order to block him for just a moment, the Great Elder had paid the price of losing his entire corpse.

  At this moment, the five elders had already escaped with Chu Chenhan three hundred feet away and were about to disappear from Wudan Dao's line of sight.

  "Escape? How ridiculous." Under Wudang's true yuan force, a fist-sized thunderball appeared in the palm of his hand, shining with purple electricity.

  With a flick of his wrist, the Thunderball flashed out, as if it had grown eyes, and shot towards the distant figure of the Fifth Elder at an astonishing speed that was hard to discern with the naked eye.

  "Spare your fellow Taoist..."

  Suddenly, a green shadow descended from the sky and cut off the purple electric sphere.

  "Who dares to stop me?" Wu Chen's face turned gloomy as he locked onto the green shadow descending from the sky, his voice stern.

  "In the lower Dantian, the clear and calm energy is stored."

  At this moment, Qingying finally had the opportunity to see Wucheng's attire clearly and suddenly realized that he was a member of the Taiqing Sect, his face slightly changed.

  "Are you from the Xuan Yuan Sect?"

  A figure flashed by, and he was already floating in front of him, with a few cold words: "I was ordered by my master to destroy the Chu family, but you blocked me. Are you trying to make the Xuanyuan Sect an enemy of the Taicheng Sect?"

  This big hat came down, and Du Qing was stunned on the spot. He naturally knew what kind of existence Taiqing Zong was, the highest existence of Daozong's lineage, the strongest sect that led Daozong, which was not to be provoked at all. Not to mention the Xuan Yuan Sect, a mid-to-high-level Taoist sect, even the Shen Xiao Sect, Dan Ding Sect, Lian Bao Ge, and Jiu Yi Sect, which were among the five major sects with Taiqing Zong, did not dare to touch its reverse scales.

  Before this, Tongxuan Zhenren had entrusted Du Qing to deliver two Naiyuan Dan to Chu Lengfeng's father, Chu Chenhan, and escort him to the Jiuyuan Marsh. However, if this move would provoke Taiqing Sect, an existence as enormous as a mountain, that would be absolutely unacceptable.

  Moreover, he didn't mention that the Dustless Daoist had already reached the ninth heaven of cultivation, with a strength that was even higher than his own. Even though his own strength was stronger than the latter's, after learning about the identity of the Dustless Daoist, he didn't dare to make any move.

  "I really don't know how the Chu family managed to provoke the Taiching Sect, a lineage of unparalleled Daoist masters. Things have already gone beyond my control; I must hurry back to the sect and report this matter to the Master..."

  "Judging from the current situation, it's clear that the Taiqing Sect wants to exterminate the entire Chu family. If we deduce further, if the Taiqing Sect were to find out that Xuan Yuan Sect still has a person named Chulian Feng, would they vent their anger on their own sect?"

  The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. Du Qing immediately bowed to Wu Chen Dao Ren and said: "Just now, I misunderstood and blocked my brother's way, which was a mistake on my part. I hope my brother will forgive me. This matter has nothing to do with the Xuan Yuan Sect, so I'll take my leave."

  Although Wú Chén Dào Rén had expressed some doubt about Du Qing's sudden appearance, he didn't have the time to dwell on it now. Since the other party had made it clear that they wouldn't interfere with him, and they were both from the same Daoist lineage, Wú Chén Dào Rén couldn't say anything more. Upon hearing this, he also returned a courtesy: "In that case, I won't see you off. Farewell, fellow Daoist."

  Du Qing didn't say much either. By the time Wucheng Daoren's voice fell, he had already ridden his sword to a distant place and disappeared into the clouds in the blink of an eye.

  The remaining members of the Chu family, who had thought that a savior had descended from heaven, were instead sent fleeing in all directions by Wudang Daoist's few words, and they scattered in disarray once again.

  Sweeping over the rugged mountain road stained with blood, Wudang Daoist couldn't help but feel a hint of sympathy, yet he wouldn't let that stop him from eliminating the surviving members of the Chu clan, as the order of the leader was as heavy as a mountain.

  "Who made you have the surname Chu? In your next life, be born into a good family, don't be a member of the Chu family again..."

  "Zhan Yue Jian" reappears, and the bloody slaughter that had paused for a moment resumes once again.
