In an unnad valley within the Black-Corner Region.
At this mont, the valley was crowded with a group of people. Although most of their faces were pale, there was little sign of panic in their expressions. Holding their weapons tightly, their gazes were cold and sharp as they scanned the peaks near the valley entrance.
This group consisted mainly of young people aged seventeen to nineteen, at the peak of their vigor. Among them, there was an equal mix of males and females, though their faces were pallid, and many bore wounds on their bodies.
At the forefront of the group stood a few n and won, their expressions grave as they focused intently on the distant valley entrance. There, faint shadows glinted with a chilling light.
"Elder Xiao, what do we do now? The Demon Fla Valley seems determined to wipe us out," a middle-aged man, approximately thirty years old, sighed as he looked at the dire situation. Turning to a tall woman with a long green sword on her back, he gave a wry smile.
The tall woman was dressed in a crimson elder's robe, adding a mature and alluring charm to her deanor. The hem of her robe had a slit that extended midway up her thighs, revealing her slender, shapely legs. Even in this life-threatening situation, several male students behind her couldn't help but steal glances.
This tall woman was none other than Xiao Yu, fiancée of Mo Yu.
"Let's wait. Hopefully, Ma Di and the others can escape successfully. As long as they can deliver the ssage, Jia Nan Academy or powerful individuals from the Yuan Manor might co to our rescue," Xiao Yu sighed, her beautiful eyes sweeping over the faces of the people in the valley.
Hearing her words, the middle-aged man nodded slightly before muttering helplessly, "I fear those people won't give us such an opportunity."
No sooner had he spoken than Xiao Yu's expression shifted. Her sharp eyes snapped to the valley entrance as she said in a low voice, "Be careful! Protect the students. The people from the Demon Fla Valley are making a move."
Upon hearing this, the instructors behind her were alard. They quickly retreated, forming a protective circle around the young male and female students.
"Haha, who would have thought that the famous Azure Wind Sword Xiao Yu of the Jia Nan Academy would be here? What an honor!"
Shadows flickered atop a mountain peak at the valley entrance, and a figure clad in gray robes appeared, flapping Dou Qi wings. Hovering above the group, he laughed heartily.
Behind him stood more than a dozen black-robed individuals. Their chilling gazes bore down on those in the valley like knives.
"People from the Demon Fla Valley always resort to such underhanded tactics. If you have any courage, co down and fight !" Xiao Yu's beautiful eyes glared coldly at the gray-robed figure.
"Haha! The na of Elder Azure Wind Sword resounds across the Black-Corner Region. But more importantly, you're the fiancée of the Yuan Manor's leader. I wonder, what does it feel like to taste the wife of such a distinguished figure?"
A lewd laugh echoed as another figure appeared. Judging by the Dou Qi wings behind him, he was clearly another Dou Wang.
Xiao Yu's expression darkened as her eyes flickered between the two Dou Wang experts above. Her own strength was only that of a Four-Star Dou Wang.
Over the years, thanks to Mo Yu's gifts of compatible Di-Class cultivation thods and Dou techniques, Xiao Yu's strength had steadily increased, rivaling even the top talents of her generation.
Additionally, due to Mo Yu's influence, she had received many benefits from Yuan Manor. Be it Qi Shan, the hall master of the Thousand dicine Hall, or Su Qian, the Grand Elder of the Inner Academy, both had taken special care of her.
She had access to fourth- and fifth-tier pills and was allowed more frequent access to the lower levels of the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower than regular elders.
Because of these advantages, Xiao Yu had grown from a promising talent of a small city in the Jia Ma Empire into the renowned Azure Wind Sword of the Black-Corner Region.
Perhaps, deep in her heart, she had always aspired to chase after Mo Yu.
Unfortunately, the recent opportunity she had painstakingly secured to lead the new students on an independent training mission had turned into an ambush by the Demon Fla Valley.
Judging by the aura of these two, they were on par with her. If it were a one-on-one fight, with her Di-Class cultivation thod and Dou techniques, she was confident of victory.
However, facing two opponents at once clearly put her at a disadvantage. Yet, if it ca down to a life-or-death struggle, she would rather die than allow herself to be humiliated.
"Elder Xiao Yu, if you surrender now, I can assure you no harm will co to the students of Jia Nan Academy. What do you say?" the gray-robed figure offered with a smile.
"Do you take for a three-year-old? If I fall into your hands, my fate will undoubtedly be worse than death!" Xiao Yu scoffed coldly, stepping forward gracefully with her slender, pale legs.
"You scoundrels hide and refuse to fight a lone woman head-on. Truly a disgrace to the Demon Fla Valley!"
"Oh? As expected of the Yuan Manor's leader's fiancée. You're quite spirited. Capturing you would surely make an excellent bargaining chip against Yuan Manor!"
As her voice fell, an aged voice suddenly rang out from outside the valley.
Monts later, an elderly man in green robes appeared in their sight. His Dou Qi wings fanned the air, sending ripples through the atmosphere as though it were water.
With the appearance of this green-robed elder, the expressions of everyone present changed. The two Demon Fla Valley Dou Wang experts quickly retreated, kneeling on one knee and respectfully saluting.
"Greetings, Fourth Elder!"
Xiao Yu's face grew tense as her gaze locked onto the green-robed elder in the sky. Her heart sank. She was familiar with him—Xie Zhen, the Fourth Elder of the Demon Fla Valley, a Six-Star Dou Huang. His expertise in close combat and renowned claw techniques struck fear in many.
Xiao Yu gripped her green longsword tightly and said coldly, "Xie Zhen, as a renowned expert of the Black-Corner Region, stooping to attack juniors will surely draw ridicule."
"Heh, as Mo Yu's fiancée, your identity is no small matter. Of course, I had to handle this personally," Xie Zhen replied with a faint smile before his expression turned icy.
"Enough talk. Will you surrender, or do you wish to resist?"
"Jia Nan Academy never surrenders!" Xiao Yu's firm declaration rang out as her grip tightened on her longsword.
"Stubborn, aren't you? But it will only bring you more suffering!"
Xie Zhen sneered as his figure blurred, reappearing before Xiao Yu and her group. The surrounding black-clad mbers of the Demon Fla Valley moved to block every possible escape route.
Xiao Yu's heart sank further as her gaze hardened. Holding her sword with both hands, she lunged forward like a fleeting breeze, aiming directly for Xie Zhen's heart.
Xie Zhen hesitated for a mont at her sudden attack, then smiled with interest as the fight began.
The woman standing before him was indeed worthy of being the fiancée of the Yuan Manor's leader, as her swordsmanship wasn't an ordinary Dou Technique—it was an Di-Class Dou Technique!
Xie Zhen steadied his stance, his eyes narrowing as the elusive longsword neared within two feet of his face. Only then did his broad hand suddenly curl inward.
Like the talons of an eagle, his hand shot forward unnervingly, his five fingers snapping shut to seize the longsword's charging montum. The force contained within the sword's aura instantly froze.
Xiao Yu's expression shifted as the sword abruptly halted mid-strike. The swordsmanship she employed was a Di-Class Dou Technique gifted to her by Mo Yu. It was elusive and unpredictable, nearly impossible to detect, even for high-level Dou Wangs.
However, Xie Zhen, a six-star Dou Huang, rendered her skill ineffective before the sheer chasm of power between them.
Clenching her teeth, Xiao Yu tugged hard at the sword, but Xie Zhen's withered fingers clamped down like an unyielding vice, holding it firmly in place.
"Such weak skills, yet you dare to act arrogant in front of ? Today, I'll take you down!"
Xie Zhen sneered coldly, his aged voice filled with contempt. With a flick of his fingers, a massive force launched the sword out of Xiao Yu's grasp, sending it flying dozens of ters away.
Her weapon lost, Xiao Yu's face paled. Xie Zhen smirked coldly, lifting his withered hand, imbued with imnse energy, and reached for her slender neck.
Clang! The students gasped, their faces contorting with fear as they watched Xie Zhen's hand inch closer to Xiao Yu. So of the girls even scread aloud.
In Xiao Yu's eyes, the gnarled hand grew larger and larger. Helplessly, she closed her eyes, resigned to her fate.
Whoosh! Amid the shocked stares of the crowd, as Xie Zhen's hand drew ever closer to her delicate neck, a whistling sound suddenly broke the tense air.
A black shadow shot across the sky like lightning, slamming into Xie Zhen's hand with pinpoint accuracy.
Boom! The impact resonated through the air, forcing Xie Zhen to retract his hand in alarm. A black spear, long and sleek, now stood embedded in the ground.
Dust swirled around the unexpected intrusion. Everyone was stunned. Xiao Yu slowly opened her eyes and stared in amazent at the familiar weapon now before her.
Her beautiful eyes locked onto the sleek black spear, and after a mont, as recognition dawned, a light of joy and disbelief shone in her gaze.
"Mo Yu? Is that you?"
Turning to the sky, she saw a young man with striking silver eyes. Xie Zhen's expression imdiately changed as he retreated hastily, exclaiming, "Yuan Manor Manor Lord! Weren't you heading to the Northwestern Continent? Why are you here?"
Nearby, the students of Jia Nan Academy gazed at Mo Yu with curiosity and awe. His na resonated within the academy even more strongly than that of the dean.
Under their astonished gazes, Mo Yu smiled faintly, his thunder wings retracting as he gracefully descended. He landed in front of Xiao Yu, gently brushing away her disheveled hair and smiling softly.
"I didn't expect you to have advanced to the Dou Wang level and even beco an elder of the academy. Back when we parted, you were only a high-level Dou Ling. And now, in just over half a year, you've reached this stage. There's no need to push yourself so hard."
Feeling his warm gaze, Xiao Yu's nose stung as tears welled up in her eyes. She replied softly, "I don't want to hold you back. I also didn't want to stay in the Yuan Manor, receiving respect from your subordinates just because of you."
Hearing this, Mo Yu sighed lightly and murmured, "Don't worry. With here, no one will dare to bully you."
"Mm." Xiao Yu nodded slightly, then bit her lip. After a mont, she said, "Don't let these people go. They killed three students this ti."
"Rest assured, not one will be spared," Mo Yu replied calmly, a light smile on his face.
Xiao Yu rolled her eyes at his nonchalant tone, glancing sideways. Sure enough, many of the female students were staring at Mo Yu with admiration after his words.
anwhile, Xie Zhen and his group were far from enraged. Instead, a cold chill ran through them.
Before them stood a man at the pinnacle of strength in the Black-Corner Region—the leader of Yuan Manor and the top figure on the Black Rankings.
As they exchanged uneasy glances, intent on retreating, a sudden wave of whooshing sounds filled the air.
From the surrounding valley, powerful auras surged forth, descending one after another like a torrential downpour, enveloping Xie Zhen's group in a suffocating siege.
Encircled by the formidable forces of Yuan Manor, Mo Yu nodded slightly. His subordinates' gazes turned icy as they locked onto the Demon Fla Valley intruders.
Under the overwhelming assault of Yuan Manor's elite, the battle ended swiftly. In less than ten minutes, Xie Zhen's group was utterly annihilated like ants crushed underfoot.
Seeing this, the male students of Jia Nan Academy regarded Mo Yu with reverence, while the female students gazed at Xiao Yu with envy.
To have such a young, handso, and powerful fiancée, Elder Xiao Yu must have accumulated blessings from eight lifetis.
Surrounded by admiring stares, Xiao Yu felt a surge of joy in her heart. Just as she was about to share a private word with Mo Yu, her gaze caught sight of a graceful figure approaching.
The woman wore a loose-fitting purple-red robe, her snow-white hair cascading like silk.
What startled Xiao Yu most was the woman's noble and unparalleled aura, placing her among the most extraordinary won she had ever encountered.
An uneasy premonition arose in her heart. Glancing sideways, she noticed Mo Yu's wandering gaze...
