Loyal Heart Roaming the Skies

"The Five Relationships are ever-changing, and the Seven Emotions are extinguished! Step through my Gate of Life and Death, and wear my Black and White Cloth."

As the voice expanded, a figure stood alone in the sky.

Second Elder of the Bone Path, Lu Yan!

His clothes, his figure... everything about him was ignored, only his eyes, which were now only white, became brighter and brighter.

"Kill my old intentions, and guide me to the realm of the departed!"

Cultivators who reached a certain level of cultivation could sense that all the souls in the entire Fenglin City, including the negative emotions, the fear before death, and the resentment towards death, were faintly gathering in one place.

Everyone who saw this scene understood.

The Earthly Calamity... was just the beginning!

...

People saw Wei Qudi rise from the ground and face the Fourth Rank Outer Tower Realm expert.

A roaring hurricane surrounded him, and the deep roar manifested at this moment.

It was the gust of wind that fell rapidly from high above, like a sharp blade!

The gentle wind filled the world, but the gust of wind only existed in the high sky.

In their previous battle, Lu Yan had injured Wei Qudi with just one punch, but Wei Qudi had not left any tricks behind.

The gust of wind that was now brought to the ground was his key move to determine victory or defeat.

In this Fenglin City.

With the Inner Palace fighting against the Outer Tower, how could Wei Qudi not give it a try?

...

Huang Azhan couldn't control the battle in the sky, nor did he bother to.

With a step, he had already leaped over the ground crack and slashed towards Fang Heling with his Flame Blade.

"Huang Senior Brother, Fenglin City is finished! Why not switch sides and join the righteous cause?" Fang Heling blocked with his blade.

Only now did he remember that Huang Azhan was his senior brother and that they could communicate.

Both of them specialized in the Fire Path Dao techniques, and the fiery elemental energy was agitated, causing the magma flow in the ground crack to become restless.

Huang Azhan became even angrier and cursed while fighting, "You idiot! You dumb chicken feather!"

This was his derogatory term for Fang Heling, but he had never said it to his face before.

Fang Heling immediately exploded, dispersing the flames from his blade and rubbing his hands together. Thousands of arrows from his family's inherited Dao technique, Thousand Feather Arrows, attacked.

Bang!

A fireball exploded in the center of the arrows, pushing them in all directions.

This precise control was achieved after receiving guidance from Li Jianqiu.

Huang Azhan fell right in the center of the arrows, and his Flame Blade flew out. With a Dao decision, a rain of fireballs appeared in an instant!

Li Jianqiu had said that Huang Azhan was following a similar path to Shen Nanqi. Shen Nanqi was famous for his Golden Light Arrows, and Huang Azhan's expertise in fireballs was equally impressive.

Fang Heling did not expect that his Thousand Feather Arrows, which he had considered his trump card since childhood, would be easily broken, and his field of vision was now filled with a sky full of fireballs!

Boom!

Boom boom boom boom!

Three consecutive earthen walls appeared in front of Fang Heling, and the continuous fireballs bombarded the walls.

Blocked by this obstacle, Fang Heling hurriedly retreated.

But just as Huang Azhan thought he had already won, a fist suddenly appeared and smashed him to the ground.

The ground conveniently formed a deep pit, burying Huang Azhan, leaving only his head exposed.

"Dad? Li Gongfeng?" Fang Heling looked at the two people who appeared here in surprise.

One was his father, who had been confined in the ancestral hall, and the other was Li Gongfeng, who often practiced Dao techniques with him when he was in the Meridian Realm. His strength should only be at the Meridian Realm.

But now, his father appeared here. Li Gongfeng had saved his life and subdued Huang Azhan. Although there was an element of surprise attack, how could such strength be only at the Meridian Realm?

How did he succeed in seizing power back then?

Fang Heling realized that he had never truly understood his father.

"Stop talking nonsense." Fang Zehou gasped for breath and said, "The situation has changed now. We need to leave with your Uncle Li. There's nothing we can salvage in Fenglin City. The business in Yunguo is not finished yet. Let's go to Yunguo, get the money, and leave."

Just as Fang Heling was about to speak, he suddenly heard Huang Azhan shouting, "Senior Brother Zhang! Senior Brother Zhang! You've come at the right time. Don't worry about me, quickly kill Fang Heling and the others! They are in cahoots with those demons, and he even killed Teacher Xiao!"

Fang Zehou and his son were shocked and turned their heads, only to see Zhang Linqiu walking towards them.

The Zhang family's territory was very close to the Judicial Department, so he arrived here shortly after leaving the clan territory.

Li Gongfeng remained silent and stood in front of Fang Zehou and his son.

Fang Heling shouted, "Senior Brother Zhang! Listen to me! Fenglin City is finished, and Qinghe County cannot be saved. The entire Zhuang Kingdom is about to be destroyed in a matter of days! With your talent, why bind yourself to a sinking ship?

You have witnessed the strength of the Bone Path. The real experts have yet to appear, and Wei Qudi is already being suppressed! Dong Aitou doesn't even dare to show himself! I have connections with the high-level members of the Bone Path. I can introduce you. With your strength and talent, you won't have to worry about finding a good position!"

Huang Azhan, whose Dao Yuan was sealed and was bound, could only move his head, but he was not weak in his response. "Pah! Senior Brother Zhang Linqiu is so wise and martial, how could he be swayed by your words?"

Zhang Linqiu listened quietly to their words and then asked, "Where is Dong Yuan?"

Both sides were stunned.

"Forget it." Zhang Linqiu turned around impatiently. "Don't mind me, continue."

"Let's go!" Fang Zehou pulled Fang Heling.

He agreed to let Fang Heling seize power, hiding behind him and ready to support his son at any time.

But he never expected that the Bone Path would play such a big game. Not only did the Fang family disappear in an instant, but the entire Fenglin City was gone.

Li Gongfeng was a close friend who had sworn brotherhood with him and could have escaped with him. But his first thought was still his son. That was why he took the risk to come here, to escape with Fang Heling.

Seeing Zhang Linqiu, he had already given up hope, but Zhang Linqiu's disregard and departure gave him hope again.

As long as they could survive, they could rebuild their family business, and their wealth could be regained.

When was a better time to leave if not now?

But Fang Heling shook off his father, condensed a flame blade, and walked towards Huang Azhan, who was trapped underground.

After experiencing so much, the current Fang Heling was no longer the child who watched his cousin with fear and trepidation.

He had his own thoughts and judgments."Aren't you the one who wanted to kill me? To avenge Xiao Tiemian?"

He strode up to Huang Azhan, his flame sword held high.

Huang Azhan didn't look at him, but at the retreating figure of Zhang Linchuan.

For some reason, at this final moment, what came to his mind was a cheeky remark.

"I've even kissed your ass... and you really don't care about me!"

Swish!

The flame sword swung, then dissipated.

A head rolled down.

In the air, there seemed to be a faint smell of charred flesh from the flame.

Huang Azhan, killed in battle.

At the age of twenty.

...

Boom!

In the high sky, a figure crashed down.

Right in the center of the city lord's mansion.

An Inner Palace Realm cultivator who hadn't discovered a divine power seed, facing a peak Outer Tower Realm powerhouse.

How long could he resist?

Wei Quji gave the answer.

A quarter of an hour.

It was a quarter of an hour that almost burned his life.

But it only delayed the demise of the entire Maple Forest City for a quarter of an hour.

At this moment, he didn't know that the entire Maple Forest City had been sealed by a large formation. People could come and go, but souls could only wander within the city.

In a while, when the large formation completely closed, no one would be able to leave.

All the experts of the Bone Path had already taken action, and no one in his city lord's mansion was idle.

But none of his subordinates could intervene in a battle of this level.

Dong Ah... was nowhere to be found.

Wei Quji, coughing up blood, slowly stood up from the ground.

He was not a man of many words, he was tough, self-centered, and autocratic.

One could say he was cold, even violent.

But this was his territory, his city.

He, the lord of the Maple Forest City.

He had to stand up and take responsibility.

...
