Chen Xuan unleashed a devastating sword strike, obliterating most of the Jianmen Sect members. Hong Zhisha, the sect leader, attempted to defend his disciples but failed, suffering heavy casualties. Despite nearly killing Ye Jinhong, Hong Zhisha and his clone were forced to retreat as Chen Xuan demonstrated overwhelming power.

"The Sword Sect is practically finished!"

After a brief consideration, he remarked that with all one hundred members of the Sword Sect eliminated by him, its practical existence had come to an end.

"Well done, kid!"

Cai Kun approached, clapping Chen Xuan vigorously on the shoulder. "Destroying the Sword Sect, one of the Nine Sects, Elder Zhan will surely be overjoyed to hear this!"

"Thank you, Brother Kun. You should hurry to the other prefectures; there's nothing left to do here."

"Alright! Alright! Alright!"

Cai Kun agreed with repeated nods. The Great Yu Nine Prefectures were under simultaneous assault. Since he was nearest to rMolan Mansion, he had been dispatched there immediately upon receiving the news.

Now that the situation was resolved and rMolan Mansion was safe, he could lend assistance to other prefectures.

However, after taking a step, he paused and turned back. "What about you striking again?"

"Idle hands are the devil's workshop!"

"Absolutely not!"

Before Chen Xuan could respond, Ye Jinhong interjected his refusal. "The Sword Sect's two most powerful individuals have departed; if they return, it will be disastrous!"

Cai Kun raised an eyebrow, then gave a nod. "In that case, we'll drop it!"

Watching Cai Kun depart, Ye Jinhong let out a deep sigh of relief.

"Phew!"

He patted his chest reassuringly.

"Spineless!"

Chen Xuan shot him a sideways glance. For a prefectural director, his current demeanor was akin to that of a timid woman.

"Hehe!"

Instead of taking offense, Ye Jinhong chuckled.

Let Chen Xuan mock or curse him; as long as he remained safe, it was all that mattered.

...

The news of the Sword Sect's downfall, with a hundred of its disciples slain, was conveyed by Hong Zhisha to Yuan Qing.

At that precise moment, Yuan Qing and his duplicate were situated in a mountainous region.

"How are you feeling now? Is the discomfort lessening?"

Observing his gradually improving color, Hong Zhisha, though concerned, voiced his lingering worry.

"Almost there!"

The duplicate seemed shaken. "How can Prince Xuan possess such formidable strength?"

"He is indeed powerful!"

Even Hong Zhisha had not anticipated that despite his own Double Five realm, Chen Xuan's might was already on par with his, perhaps even exceeding it.

A true genius!

Despite their adversarial positions, Hong Zhisha had to acknowledge at that moment that Prince Xuan was a supreme genius.

He detected a resemblance in Chen Xuan to the revered Lord Zhou.

"Proceed to Celestial Thunder Mansion, infiltrate the city, and launch a direct assault; this will sow widespread chaos."

Yuan Qing issued the command.

"Understood!"

Then, he instructed his duplicate, "We march to Celestial Thunder Mansion!"

...

The following day, news of the coordinated attacks spread like wildfire.

The Great Yu Nine Prefectures had simultaneously been targeted by the Hidden Kill Nine Sects.

All the kings and directors of the Nine Prefectures had met their demise!

"Damn it, this is too horrific. Fortunately, you didn't leave yesterday. Look, Hong Zhisha and the others launched further attacks later."

Within the study, Ye Jinhong appeared visibly shaken.

He felt immense gratitude for having spoken up earlier; had Chen Xuan departed, it was likely he himself would have been among the casualties!

"What is the current situation across Great Yu?"

Chen Xuan inquired.

"Status quo. Every prefecture is gripped by panic, fearing the imminent arrival of Hidden Kill."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan's brow furrowed.

The lack of offensive action suggested a dire predicament in the danger zone, rendering the deployment of additional experts impossible.

"Furthermore, the Hidden Kill organization is exceptionally cunning; they strike and vanish without a trace."

"They've even spread rumors, declaring their intention to eradicate all within the Great Yu Hundred Mansions!"

"That's unlikely. Didn't Hidden Kill suffer considerable losses as well?"

Chen Xuan disagreed with the severity of the threat but conceded that the widespread panic in Great Yu was undeniable.

The crucial factor now was the state of the danger zone.

If it could hold, all would be well; if it were breached, a catastrophe would ensue.

As anticipated, three days later.

Yong’an Prefecture, the location of the Hidden Forest Abyss, fell.

The Tree-man Race and the Stone Race had joined forces.

The Stone Race initiated the assault, while the Tree-man Race provided healing support from the rear. The Celestial Fire Array, which Great Yu had invested substantial resources in establishing, was dismantled in a mere single day.

This engagement resulted in catastrophic casualties for Great Yu.

Yong’an Prefecture was subsequently occupied by the two allied races.

These races showed no mercy, initiating a massacre upon sight, transforming the entirety of Yong’an Prefecture into an earthly purgatory.

In adherence to Great Yu's directives, two prefectures adjacent to Yong’an Prefecture were immediately declared abandoned.

Consequently, in this single conflict, Great Yu forfeited dominion over three prefectures!
