Wen Ping discovered the sect mission system, which offers rewards like 500 Sect Task Points for rescuing Earth Unrestricted Expert Yijian from Jianshui City and additional points for slaying Long Men Sect Leader Lei Qianshan or Shui Yi Fang's Jian Chenxin. He assigned Wood Dragon the rescue mission while instructing the demons to tackle other tasks and cautiously enter Fa Yuan Valley's Final Forbidden Area. In Jianshui City, Yijian's Jinzhilou ties spread publicly, drawing mixed reactions as Yi Yi met Ye Wuhuan, who promised an imminent rescue. Long Men tortured Yijian relentlessly, with Lei Qianshan slaughtering his relatives and threatening his daughter Yi Yi, provoking Yijian's fury.

"Lei Qianshan, you will die a miserable death!"

"The Sect Leader will die a miserable death? Didn't you think this day would arrive when you betrayed the Dragon Gate!"

A figure abruptly charged from the side, four Meridian Gates wide open; Qi morphed into a whip that struck Yi Jian's body, ripping skin and shredding flesh.

Yet Yi Jian ignored the agony completely.

Blood-red eyes fixed on Lei Qianshan, clouded by years yet bursting with savage intensity. Were he free, Yi Jian would lunge like a starving wolf, ripping Lei Qianshan apart with his fangs.

Lei Qianshan, however, wore a gleeful grin, stabbing like a dagger into Yi Jian's chest.

"Don't fret, you'll join your daughter soon. With just three days until the five-day limit, you'll follow at most three days later!"

"Lei Qianshan, if you dare, fight me alone!"

Yi Jian ground his teeth, snarling the challenge fiercely.

Lei Qianshan acted deaf to it, countering instead, "Where's the true Jingzhao Building?"

"I'll die before I reveal it!"

"What about your daughter?"

Bam!

Yi Jian thrashed wildly, blood-tears pooling in his eyes.

He yearned to slay Lei Qianshan!

To shred him utterly!

Lei Qianshan remained steadfast, finally speaking after ages, "Keep silent if you wish. Once I seize your daughter, we'll chat then."

With those words, he eyed the nearby Dragon Gate Law Enforcer, commanding, "Stop the beating; he's lost his mind!"

For one Jingzhao Building, he abandons even his daughter.

What else could call madness?

"Sect Leader, what of us?" the Dragon Gate Law Enforcer inquired.

Lei Qianshan ordered, "Seize Yi Xuan; she lingers in Jianshui City. Drag her back, carve her apart before him—I doubt his resolve holds!"

"Understood, Sect Leader!"

The Dragon Gate Law Enforcer obeyed at once.

That very night, Jianshui City flipped into chaos; Dragon Gate forces scoured everywhere, posting huge bounties for Yi Xuan.

A solid clue fetched ten thousand White Crystals.

Capturing her outright awarded Dragon Gate School Vein Skill cultivation rights.

The money tempted Loose Cultivators plenty.

The skill proved utterly captivating.

Hence, nearly seventy percent hunted Yi Xuan's trail.

The other thirty percent honored Senior Yi Jian's deeds, staying clear.

Another day passed thus.

Of the five days, merely two remained.

Meanwhile, Ye Wuhuan kept Yi Xuan concealed in the inn; spotting his plan to venture out, she hastily queried, "Senior, where to?"

Ye Wuhuan flung a Cyan Fruit etched in blue veins, instructing, "Consume it—it'll shift you to Demon Race form, exuding Demon Qi. No Earth Unrestricted Expert's Perception discerns your real self otherwise."

Yi Xuan nodded, grabbing and devouring the Cyan Fruit.

A few chews later, her body's Vein Qi contracted, supplanted by surging pure Demon Qi.

Fully eaten, the Cyan Fruit altered Yi Xuan's features, her frame stretching much taller.

Not even close acquaintances would spot Yi Xuan right there.

"Impressive."

Ye Wuhuan nodded in satisfaction, swinging the door wide.

Gripping his paper fan, he flicked it gently while exiting the inn.

Yi Xuan trailed after; as Ye Wuhuan aimed straight for the city gates, she blurted, "Senior, our destination?"

"Newspaper shopping."

Ye Wuhuan answered flatly.

Yi Xuan paused stunned, then hurried to match his stride.

Shortly, a freshly opened stall appeared, hawking the Immortal Daily.

"Second Immortal Daily edition released!"

"Figured no second issue after Senior Yi Jian's capture!"

Buyers dashed out clutching Immortal Dailys, grinning, fleeing like rats from felines lest Dragon Gate swoop in.

Yi Xuan peeked at Senior Ye Wuhuan, noting his triumphant smirk, piecing it together.

Senior Ye Wuhuan orchestrated this!

Yet why now, amid such peril?

Spotting her confusion, Ye Wuhuan approached, snatched a paper for her, dropped a Gold Ticket.

"Read it."

His paper fan jabbed the Immortal Daily's boldest central headline.

Youli Year 1347, July 25.

Seventy-two five-star powers from Star Sword Mountain's fourteen cities united against the Immortal Sect, amassing almost eighty Earth Unrestricted Experts. But expedition eve brought Red Leaf Sect Vice Sect Leader's murder news, routing over half the five-star factions. Unaware, the leftover thirty-four Earth Unrestricted Experts pressed on to assault the Immortal Sect.

Before myriad onlookers, Earth Unrestricted Upper Realm powerhouse Sword Demon materialized at Immortal Sect. In fifteen minutes, of thirty-four Earth Unrestricted Experts, seventeen alone endured. Those captives now toil in Immortal Sect's tree farming and morphing, forking over 400,000 White Crystals for freedom.

Immortal Sect thus locked in dominance over Star Sword Mountain, its fourteen cities' powers shunning direct clashes.

Yi Xuan paused, uncertain.

She eyed Ye Wuhuan, then the paper anew.

Ye Wuhuan grinned, explaining, "Jingzhao Building's backing wields this might, so puny Dragon Gate or Remote Corner can't halt its ambitions. Immortal Daily shall blanket Red Domain someday, letting all glimpse the world from home. Your father's vision endures unbroken."

"Senior, will Jingzhao Building dispatch Senior Sword Demon?" Yi Xuan gazed at Ye Wuhuan hungrily, eager as a pupil.

Ye Wuhuan shook his head though.

"No."

"Then father..."

Disappointment washed over Yi Xuan abruptly.

"Another comes, but per my intel, another Earth Unrestricted Upper Realm force," Ye Wuhuan stated coolly.

Yi Xuan's dulled gaze ignited brilliantly, glimpsing sudden hope amid shadows.

Noting it, Ye Wuhuan smiled wryly, "Soon Dragon Gate and Remote Corner quake—the Immortal Sect never aimed at them, but they block its path—pure folly!"

Thereupon, Ye Wuhuan drew a buzzing Sound Transmission Stone.

Two words echoed from it.

"Arrival!"

Ye Wuhuan eyed the shop's folk, who filed out swiftly.

Soon Dragon Gate enforcers stormed in.

Flames devoured the shop entirely.

Yet soon "snow" drifted over Jianshui City streets, Immortal Daily pages swirling everywhere.
