Ye Yun assessed Luo Li's Ancestral Dragon Bloodline at 1% purity after her breakthrough and questioned her proficiency in the Dragon God Sect's techniques, noting her strength in movement and swordsmanship. He gifted her the God-level Supreme Golden Dragon Sword, sealed to heavenly grade, containing a living Dragon Soul, and an Emperor-level scabbard disguised as spirit grade. As pursuers approached the sect ruins, Ye Yun teleported them above the crumbling walls, instructed Luo Li to focus solely on killing, and unleashed boundless murderous intent amid echoing thunder.

"Yes, Ancestral Master!" Luo Li pursed her alluring red lips, her fine eyebrows arching high. Clutching her sword, she unleashed a domineering aura that shook the earth.

Observing Luo Li, the spirited young girl brimming with vitality, Ye Yun nodded silently in his mind, offering wordless admiration from his heart.

Beneath their gazes, a band of individuals emerged at the mountain base, near the Dragon God Sect ruins.

Roughly seven or eight men made up the group. Two reached the Mysterious Pill Realm, five the Origin Sea Realm, plus one youth in the Gathering Qi Realm.

"It’s right here," the youth stammered, his finger shaking as he indicated the ruins before them.

"Alright, you can get lost now." An Origin Sea Realm cultivator flicked his hand in irritation, slapping the Gathering Qi Realm youth airborne. He crashed onto a massive boulder, spewed blood, and perished.

"HAHAHA..." The group burst into loud laughter, utterly indifferent to the Gathering Qi Realm youth's fate. He served merely as a guide; his death meant nothing.

Once their chuckles faded, they soared swiftly toward the Dragon God Sect ruins atop the peak.

"Eldest Senior Brother, only one fish slipped the net from the Dragon God Sect. That little girl is merely at the Gathering Qi Realm. Is it really worth so many of us coming to capture her?" A fourth-layer Origin Sea Realm youth inquired with a grin.

"That sole surviving disciple of the Dragon God Sect is its final Sect Leader. If we capture her, the rewards we’ll receive will be extremely generous..." The leading middle-aged man glanced back, a covetous grin spreading across his face.

"Little Junior Brother, you just don’t understand. Although that little girl from the Gathering Qi Realm doesn’t have a high cultivation base, she’s very alert and possesses an uncanny movement technique. All our previous attempts to capture her failed. This time, we absolutely cannot let her escape. Once we catch this big fish and hand her over, we’ll receive rewards more bountiful than you can possibly imagine," the second-in-command, a younger fellow, explained with a chuckle.

"Let’s hope the little brat doesn’t escape this time!" the Little Junior Brother remarked with a casual shrug and laugh.

The rest let out dry laughs too, hurrying up to the mountaintop.

Upon arriving at the peak, they spotted two unfamiliar figures facing them.

One was a youth clad in white robes. His countenance resembled sculpted jade, sharp and refined. His gaze held the depth of starry abysses, and each gesture radiated an otherworldly Immortal Aura. Oddly, no cultivation base could be detected from him. He appeared as a mere mortal, devoid of any cultivator's trace.

Next to him stood a breathtaking beauty in a goose-yellow Daoist Robe. Her complexion gleamed like fresh snow, her face exquisitely sculpted, her allure matchless, while she emanated the mighty Super Divine Dragon Breath of a tenth-layer Origin Sea Realm powerhouse.

The Eldest Senior Brother eyed the striking woman, horror flashing uncontrollably in his gaze. Though he too stood at the tenth layer of Origin Sea Realm, her presence crushed him with overwhelming pressure.

A chill gripped the Eldest Senior Brother's heart.

Cupping his fists, he smiled broadly and inquired, "Miss, might I ask if you’ve seen a little dark-skinned girl pass this way?"

Irritation flared in Luo Li. Her face turned icy as she gradually drew her sword.

Yet Ye Yun wore a smile.

"Eldest Senior Brother, this woman is not to be trifled with! Perhaps she’s the help that wretched girl from the Dragon God Sect called for!" The Second Senior Brother whispered cautiously, his face alert.

"HEHE... is that so?" The Eldest Senior Brother's expression hardened into a sinister scowl. He unsheathed his sword, aiming it straight at Luo Li.

Greed sparked in the Second Senior Brother’s eyes as he murmured with a smirk, "That Robe she’s wearing looks quite fine; it seems to be an extraordinary treasure!"

The Eldest Senior Brother's pupils narrowed, his stare locking onto Luo Li's goose-yellow Daoist Robe. His eyes bulged in shock as he exclaimed, "It’s an Emperor Level Robe!"

Shock silenced everyone. King Level treasures were rare sights for them, let alone Emperor Level ones. Instantly, greed inflamed their gazes.

A vicious spark lit the Eldest Senior Brother’s dark eyes.

The five men shared a glance, then gripped their longswords and closed in on Luo Li and Ye Yun, encircling them.

Ye Yun remained poised, hands behind his back, a subtle indifferent smile gracing his lips.

"Kill!" Luo Li shouted, her sword sweeping forth.

Simultaneously, the five men's joint assault Formation ignited. Endless sword light cascaded like mercury from all five sides.

A lone sword's chill gleam lit up the Nine Provinces.

Luo Li's blade, akin to a Divine Dragon bursting forth, clashed against the five men's sword lights.

CRASH!

The five swords exploded into fragments.

The lethal Sword Qi tore through their forms, pulverizing their hearts.
