Overseas, upon a vast and boundless stretch of sea.
Three Perfected Lord incarnations and one Daoist Remnant. Their terrifying Qi traces saturated the void, reducing Heaven and Earth to utter silence. Even the waves and the wind seed to quiet down.
DRIP. DRIP...
A drop of cold sweat slowly trickled down the Perfected Fortune’s forehead.
This was a rare occurrence for soone of his Cultivation, for it ant the shock he felt had prevented him from maintaining perfect control over his Dharma Body.
’Who am I? Where am I? What’s happening?’
At that mont, only these three questions remained in the Perfected Fortune’s mind. He had thought he was coming to stomp so weaklings, but it turned out the pond was full of sharks!
He had to admit, he had been a little too loud just a mont ago.
But the Perfected Fortune was, after all, a forr Perfected Lord. The state of his mind going blank lasted only for an instant before he recovered.
"...I am Fortune. Greetings, fellow Daoists."
Before his voice had faded, the Perfected Fortune released his own Qi trace. A Splendid Light shone from behind his head, manifesting the magnificent sight of the Treasure Brilliance Blessed Land.
Upon seeing this, the four originally hostile gazes softened considerably. After all, reaching Foundation Establishnt Perfection and refining a Blessed Land represented the peak combat power of a Foundation-Stage Cultivator. It was enough to fight the Daoist Remnant of a Primal Daoist, and at the very least, earned one the right to speak with a Perfected Lord’s incarnation.
Seeing this, the Perfected Fortune breathed a small sigh of relief.
The next second, he quickly spoke up, decisively distancing himself from the situation. "To be frank, this is all a misunderstanding. I was entangled by so karmic links and ended up here by mistake..."
"Perfected Lord! Perfected Lord!"
Before the Perfected Fortune could finish, Blood Demon Zhenren, who was on the ground, cut in, "Perfected Lord, aren’t you here to save ? You can’t just abandon !"
The mont he saw the Perfected Fortune, Blood Demon Zhenren knew sothing had gone terribly wrong.
’The Perfected Lord has fallen from his Fruit!?’
His greatest source of confidence had been the Perfected Fortune. But now, the Perfected Fortune had fallen from his Fruit. This was practically a death sentence for him!
How could he accept such a fate?
Thus, without any hesitation, he rushed to speak out. As long as the Perfected Fortune still cared about his reputation, he couldn’t possibly abandon him in front of everyone...
...That being said, Blood Demon Zhenren’s face was filled with despair.
After all, deep down, he knew the truth.
The next second, the Perfected Fortune’s expression turned cold. With a flick of his wide sleeve, he sent Blood Demon Zhenren flying. "Who are you? I do not know you."
—As if a Stain Sect Zhenren would ever care about face.
Besides, Blood Demon Zhenren had truly screwed the Perfected Fortune over this ti. If the current situation weren’t so inappropriate, the Perfected Fortune would have already started cursing him out.
’Rinima, go die sowhere else.’
’Stay the hell away from !’
"So, it’s you, Fortune..."
The three Perfected Lord incarnations present couldn’t possibly fail to recognize their forr peer, but they had no intention of making things difficult for him. Instead, they chose to let him off the hook.
After all, everyone knew about the internal struggle between Perfected Chong Guang and the Perfected Fortune within the Stain Sect. This conflict was beneficial to all outside parties. If they were to kill the Perfected Fortune, it would be akin to helping Perfected Chong Guang, and the Perfected Lord incarnations present would naturally not do sothing that would aid an enemy.
As for the Primal Daoist’s Remnant, he also recognized the Perfected Fortune.
After all, it was the Perfected Fortune who had ruined the Primal Daoist’s plans in the Azure Sun Cultivation Realm back in the day.
Therefore, their relationship was not bad; they could even be considered acquaintances. The Perfected Fortune had even tried to rescue it in the past, though he had not succeeded.
Seeing that no one was stopping him, the Perfected Fortune finally relaxed.
"I have urgent business to attend to, so I shall not linger."
As his voice fell, he imdiately took a step, intending to break through the void and depart. However, when his raised foot ca down, he found himself still in the sa spot.
...Nothing had happened.
"Hm!?"
Almost simultaneously, the three Perfected Lord incarnations and the Primal Daoist Remnant sensed that sothing was amiss. One by one, they turned their gazes toward the instigator of it all.
There, in mid-air, sat Lü Yang with a ghastly pale expression. The Embracing Mountain had been directly crushed by the Qi traces of the Perfected Lord incarnations, and the resulting backlash had instantly inflicted heavy injuries upon him. Yet, there wasn’t a trace of fear on his face; in fact, it held a hint of inexplicable excitent.
’The bait has been cast. Ti to reel in the catch.’
’This has really... gotten out of hand!’
In Lü Yang’s hand, a sheet of talisman paper shimred with light.
To be honest, with things escalating to this point—three Perfected Lord incarnations, Fortune, and a Daoist Remnant all showing up—Lü Yang actually felt a subtle sense of worry.
’World Purger Fei Xue can handle this, right?’
...
「Stain Sect, Holy Fire Cliff.」
Inside the grand hall, Perfected Chong Guang suddenly opened his eyes. His vision was filled with nothing but swirling snow and an unparalleled beauty standing silently within it.
Perfected Chong Guang hurriedly rose to his feet. "Greetings, Perfected Lord."
"At ease," the woman in the snow said lightly. "My note has been activated. After so long, this Lü Yang is indeed not bad. He is no coward."
The note she had given Lü Yang was both a form of protection and a test. If Lü Yang had used it carelessly as soon as he arrived Overseas, instead of first trying to resolve the trouble himself, she would still have intervened, but her evaluation of him would have dropped a notch.
After all, the Stain Sect had no need for man-children who only knew how to cry for help from their elders.
If you ask for help, you must offer sufficient benefits in return and let others see your value. The Stain Sect does not support the idle; those without value may as well be dead.
Therefore, she was now quite satisfied with Lü Yang.
Activating the note after such a long ti showed that Lü Yang had already tried to solve the problem, but was limited by his own abilities and needed her to clean up.
"I shall go and take a look."
Hearing this, Perfected Chong Guang cupped his hands and said in a low voice, "Yuan Tu carries heavy karmic links, so the trouble he has attracted is likely not small. We must trouble you this ti, Perfected Lord."
"Heh."
World Purger Fei Xue shook her head. "You have not yet beco a Perfected Lord, so you ultimately do not understand. To those of our Realm, Foundation Establishnt cultivators are no different from ants."
"No matter how heavy the karmic links, no matter how great the trouble, it is all confined to the Foundation Establishnt level."
"To , it is not even worth ntioning."
With that, World Purger Fei Xue vanished from the spot.
「The next second, over the Endless Sea.」
As a Splendid Light flared in Lü Yang’s hand, World Purger Fei Xue strode out. She glanced around nonchalantly... and then she froze.
’These people... they look so familiar.’
"Shui Yue, Zhengde, Celestial Wu?"
World Purger Fei Xue blinked her beautiful eyes, her gaze sweeping over the three Perfected Lord incarnations one by one before finally landing on the profusely sweating Fortune.
"Greetings, Perfected Lord..."
It wasn’t until Lü Yang’s cautious voice reached her that World Purger Fei Xue turned around, sizing him up with an unprecedented look in her eyes.
Then, she smiled.
At first, it was just a light, bell-like chuckle, but it soon grew into wild, unrestrained laughter. As the sound spread, thick snowflakes began to fall between Heaven and Earth.
"Truly worthy of being the pillar of the Stain Sect that Chong Guang praised. You really did stir up so big trouble for !"
Seeing this, Lü Yang gritted his teeth and hurriedly bowed. "Perfected Lord, please forgive ..."
"Forgive you? There’s no need!"
As her voice fell, World Purger Fei Xue’s lips curled into a grin, revealing a ferocious glint between her pearly white teeth. "On the contrary, I should be thanking you."
"What happens next has nothing to do with you."
"Your karmic links, all this big trouble—I’ll take it from here."
On the other side, the expressions of the three Perfected Lord incarnations changed drastically. Their forms rapidly dimd, while Fortune and the Primal Daoist Remnant fled for their lives.
"It’s that Mad Woman from the Demon Sect..."
"Wait, she ca in her true body?"
"Oh no!"
But it was too late. The next second, World Purger Fei Xue’s figure vanished. Only an echo of her voice remained, ringing out in all directions:
"Trying to leave? You’re all staying right here!"
