Shi Xiaokun successfully modifies Ning Qi's Sumeru Space to communicate with the outside world. Ning Qi contacts Zhao Shilin, who arrives with his men. Ning Qi brings them into his space and uses Shi Xiaokun's hidden exit to bring them out to a safe location. They then rendezvous with Thunder Mountain, who is surprised they escaped the siege.

"It seems she’s still hiding something."

Lei Shan sighed, then continued, "But at least we’re lucky, everyone came out safely."

"That’s right, let’s go, get ready to return!"

Ning Qi nodded, looking ahead.

"Let’s go back and report to the Family Head, even though we failed."

"But we did gain something this time, at least we know her strength."

Zhao Shilin followed up.

The group of them returned together.

As they were leaving, the mountain peak Ning Qi previously gazed upon.

Could see the city they went to.

At this moment, outside the city, many people had already gathered.

Among them was Gu Yueying.

She had already changed her attire, her eyes glowing as she looked at the mountains here.

"Are you saying their people must be in this mountain?"

One middle-aged man came over and asked in a deep voice.

"Correct, send someone to search."

"They’re not near the Sumeru Space, they must have found the exit and left."

"Don’t leave a single place unchecked, dig three feet deep and find them!"

Gu Yueying’s beautiful eyes were full of anger, and she said, "Make sure to catch them all in one net."

"Alright, I’ve already given the orders!"

The middle-aged man nodded, a flash of killing intent in his eyes, "These bastards dare to cause trouble in our city."

"If we don’t teach them a lesson, how can we establish ourselves here in the future."

"They came prepared this time too!"

"Then there must be insiders in the city, send people to investigate."

"Bring in everyone who’s come to the city in recent years!"

"Test them one by one, anyone with Demonic Qi should be executed immediately!"

Gu Yueying glanced behind her, then said, "Leave a few alive for interrogation!"

"Understood! I’ll pass on the instructions!"

The middle-aged man agreed once more.

"The people from the Ten Thousand Swords Sect have come too, who came?"

Gu Yueying suddenly recalled something and asked.

"It’s their Third Elder."

The middle-aged man said, "He’s just ahead, already leading a search."

"Good, I’ll go meet him."

Gu Yueying nodded and immediately set off.

With the middle-aged man’s guidance, she quickly arrived at the front.

"Third Elder!"

The middle-aged man first greeted.

Beside this Third Elder, there was another person.

It was Xu Qingqiu.

Similarly, a few others were there too.

Gao Yunze and Wang Zhengqian were also present.

"Elder Zhao."

The Third Elder greeted, then came over first.

"So, the Second Elder is here too!"

Elder Zhao saw Wang Zhengqian immediately.

"Something this big happened here, how could I not come."

Wang Zhengqian said as he came over too.

"This is Zhao Kaishan from the Purple Cloud Sect, didn’t expect him to come too."

Gao Yunze noticed him approaching and told Xu Qingqiu.

"It seems the matter of the Saintess being assassinated is indeed very serious."

Xu Qingqiu agreed deeply.

"Is the Saintess alright?"

Wang Zhengqian asked in a deep voice after coming over.

"I’m fine, if I hadn’t just returned with a few magical treasures from the Immortal Realm, it would have been troublesome."

Gu Yueying shook her head, then said, "Thanks for the Ten Thousand Swords Sect’s assistance!"

"No need for thanks, we haven’t found anyone yet."

"Wait until we do, then we can celebrate together!"

Wang Zhengqian laughed and looked ahead, "Since their people can appear unnoticed, there must be a hideout nearby."

"We must investigate thoroughly, surely we can find their hiding spot."

"Exactly!"

Gu Yueying nodded, her eyes flashing with killing intent, "These bastards even posed as people from the Immortal Realm to deceive me!"

"If I hadn’t already suspected something, I really would’ve been fooled."

"Oh, it seems we need a thorough internal investigation too."

Wang Zhengqian followed up.

"Elder Wang, let’s split up and search."

"How many disciples did you bring?"

Gu Yueying thought of something and quickly asked.

"Alright, quite a few people came!"

"Our people will search over here!"

"Recently, the Demon Race also destroyed one of our Sub-Branches, we need to settle this account!"

Wang Zhengqian nodded, pointed in a direction, "Initially, we didn’t think they’d dare to act recklessly."

"So we didn’t notify everyone, didn’t expect they’d not only act recklessly but target our city!"

"We absolutely cannot let them go easily, otherwise they’ll eventually destroy this city that leads to the Immortal Realm."

"That’s right! So we’re settled."

"Our people will search over here!"

Gu Yueying nodded, giving Zhao Kaishan a glance.

"Move out!"

Zhao Kaishan immediately understood, promptly waved his hand to lead the people away.

"Then we’ll take our leave too!"

Wang Zhengqian clasped his fists, then led his people to leave.

Xu Qingqiu and Gao Yunze followed closely behind.

"Master, the Demon Race people are too insidious this time."

Gao Yunze came up and couldn’t help but say, "They’ve already infiltrated our midst, we surely have their spies among us."

"Indeed, this was thanks to Qingqiu and you, otherwise we wouldn’t have known!"

Wang Zhengqian nodded, then said in a deep voice, "Be careful during the search, the Demon Race people are cunning and treacherous."

"Understood, we’ve suffered a loss once."

"We definitely won’t let them succeed again!"

Gao Yunze nodded, showing a fierce determination.

This time, he came for revenge.

Xu Qingqiu kept following alongside, never speaking the whole time.

"Master, what do you think about Master Ning, we can’t just casually communicate with him either."

The Nine-tailed Cat whispered from her shoulder.
