"Stubborn to the end." Yue Qianchou sneered, a dense swirling array of sword shadows enveloping him as he rose to the same height as the Man Hu. He said indifferently, "Interested in a one-on-one duel with me, to the death? Nobody try to escape; whoever dies is out of luck. If you can kill me, I'll say this beforehand: Senior Wen won't cause you any trouble. Everyone below can testify. Do you dare?"

With his current abilities, Yue Qianchou no longer considered experts at the late Tribulation Transcendence stage a threat. His only weakness was his own insufficient cultivation. If he were to fight an expert at the late Tribulation Transcendence stage and the opponent used teleportation to escape, he would be helpless, unable to catch them. Therefore, he provoked Man Hu, setting a rule that no one should flee, and seeing Man Hu dared to agree.

"What is there to be afraid of?" Man Hu shouted. Regardless of whether he could defeat Yue Qianchou, as the eldest brother of the Ice Palace, he couldn't afford to lose face for the Ice Palace.

"Haha!" Yue Qianchou laughed wildly, "Very good, you've got guts!"

"Stop!" A furious shout rang out, and Bing Cheng suddenly appeared. A group of people flashed from God of Wealth Peak, nearly three hundred people gathered in the air, all of them Spirit Transformation stage lords from various countries, their aura astonishing, yet none of them had a pleasant expression. Even Yin Baikang was among them, but his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, his eyes fixed on Yue Qianchou, seemingly wishing he could devour him alive.

Bing Cheng's gaze fell on the Ice Palace shops that had collapsed with a crash. His beard bristled, and he roared at Yue Qianchou, "Yue Qianchou, do you really think I wouldn't dare to kill you?"

"Bing Cheng, why get angry at the juniors? Can't we talk things out?" At this crucial moment, Wen Lanfeng reappeared with Lu Yanqing and Nong Zhu. Given Wen Lanfeng's status, it was naturally inappropriate for him to interfere in matters between the juniors, but with a group of old guys stepping in, how could he let it go unchecked?

However, Wen Lanfeng was somewhat troubled. Why was this little one always causing trouble? Couldn't he just stop and rest for a while?

"Wen Lanfeng!" Bing Cheng angrily pointed at the shops below and said, "What does this mean? Don't push your luck."

Nong Zhu glanced at it only once, then speechlessly touched her forehead; this matter had gotten a bit out of hand. Lu Yanqing. Wen Lanfeng paused, then looked at Yue Qianchou and said, "Put away your flying sword. What exactly is going on?"

"What's going on?" Yue Qianchou asked rhetorically, then threw his head back and laughed loudly. The speed at which his flying sword swirled and danced increased, and his killing intent exploded once more. He suddenly pointed at Man Hu and said sternly, "Man Hu, do you dare to swear an oath and tell me honestly what Yan Zhuixing just did to me?"

Upon hearing his furious words, everyone's eyes turned to Man Hu. Man Hu was caught completely off guard; his earlier bravado vanished, replaced by evasive glances. He couldn't possibly reveal that Yan Zhuixing had used Devil Cultivation Method arts, and was frantically trying to devise a countermeasure.

This hesitation made it clear to anyone that something was amiss.

Upon hearing the mention of Yan Zhuixing, Bing Cheng was startled. He looked around but couldn't find Yan Zhuixing anywhere. He immediately asked anxiously, "Man Hu, where did your junior brother go?"

Man Hu transmitted his voice, saying, "Junior Brother's Devil Cultivation Method have been exposed; he must be hiding." But on the surface, he shook his head and said, "I don't know either."

Bing Cheng looked around carefully again, but he couldn't find himself, so he figured it would be hard for others to find him either. He felt a little relieved.

However, while he was relieved, someone else was not happy. Nong Zhu took a step forward in the air, squinted his eyes, and asked in a sarcastic tone, "Yue Qianchou, what did Yan Zhuixing do to you?"

With Wen Lanfeng backing him up, Nong Zhu originally didn't want to step forward, but seeing how indignant Yue Qianchou was, he guessed that Yue Qianchou had suffered a great loss, otherwise he wouldn't have ignored Wen Lanfeng's words. Although he and Yue Qianchou were always arguing, he couldn't bear to watch his old friend Bi Changchun's brother being bullied.

To put it selfishly, in the Cultivation World. It's always Bi Changchun's brother who bullies others, not the other way around. If he really doesn't do anything, he won't be able to explain it to Bi Changchun later.

Wen Lanfeng also noticed that Nong Zhu was acting strangely; there was a hint of murderous intent in her eyes. After a moment of surprise, he understood. If this matter wasn't handled properly, it might provoke Bi Changchun to leave the Demon Ghost Domain, causing chaos throughout the entire Cultivation World. Don't be fooled by that old fellow's usual silence in the Demon Ghost Domain; once he emerges, he's a force to be reckoned with, leaving no stone unturned. Rather than letting Bi Changchun launch a major offensive, it was better to resolve the situation on a smaller scale ourselves.

Wen Lanfeng immediately became alert, coldly replying, "Yue Qianchou, speak plainly. I want to see who's behind this." A silver light flashed from his Storage Bag, floating in front of him, the broad blade gleaming silver.

"The Giant Silver Sword..." A gasp rang out from below. Lu Yanqing glanced at Wen Lanfeng with some surprise; this didn't seem to fit his temperament.

The more than two hundred Spirit Transformation stage lords looked at each other in bewilderment. They hadn't even figured out what was going on yet, and Wen Lanfeng had already drawn his sword. It seemed that this matter could not be taken lightly.

"Damn it! This should have happened a long time ago! Today, let's join forces and wipe out this scourge, Yan Zhuixing!" Yue Qianchou, now emboldened, stared at Bing Cheng and sneered, "I presume Senior Bing knows why I went to the Ice Palace Shop today?"

"Don't talk nonsense. How would I know why a junior like you came here?" Bing Cheng denied it outright. His eyes also faintly revealed killing intent. He originally wanted to take the opportunity to kill Yue Qianchou to silence him, but Wen Lanfeng also sensed something was wrong and was watching him warily, not giving him any chance.

"You can't deny the truth." Yue Qianchou sneered and looked around. "I had heard that Yan Zhuixing possessed unparalleled skills, but I didn't believe it at first. However, I experienced it firsthand today. What powerful Devil Cultivation Method! If I didn't have some of my own skills, I would have almost lost my life."

"Devil Cultivation Method..." A murmur rippled through the crowd, a cacophony of voices rising. Wen Lanfeng and Nong Zhu exchanged a glance, unsure whether it was true or not.

Bing Cheng angrily shouted, "Yue Qianchou, don't spout nonsense. This is no place for you to talk rubbish."

The pot lid was lifted a crack, revealing the aroma of meat that even the most ravenous wolf couldn't resist. Pei Fang, standing in front of the crowd, grinned, his face jiggling with fat, and said, "Brother Bing, they haven't even finished speaking, why are you in such a hurry? If it's just nonsense, everyone knows what's going on."

He then smiled at Yue Qianchou and said, "Yue Qianchou, could you explain your talk of Devil Cultivation Method more clearly so that we can recount the whole story in detail and let everyone judge right and wrong, so as not to wrong an innocent person?" He then called out to the crowd around him, "Everyone, isn't this the truth?"

"Not bad... not bad..." A large number of people responded, mostly from Pei Fang's camp.

Bing Cheng suddenly stared at him and shouted, "Pei Pang, what do you mean? Are you trying to kick me when I'm down?"

Pei Fang ignored him, lest he give him an excuse. He waved his severed hand at Yue Qianchou and laughed, "Yue Qianchou, speak boldly. With Brother Wen backing you up and so many people emboldening you, just say whatever you want." He seemed to have no grudge against Wen Lanfeng for his severed hand.

With such a golden opportunity to kill Yan Zhuixing right in front of him, how could Yue Qianchou let it slip by? He looked around and said, "Seniors, do you still remember when I was selling Seven Star Blood Orchid at my stall yesterday? After the incident, Yan Zhuixing came to me and said he wanted to buy a large quantity of Seven Star Blood Orchid and asked me to meet him at the Ice Palace shop. I actually believed him and came today. Who knew that as soon as Yan Zhuixing got the Blood Orchids, he immediately turned on me. First, he used an Evil Method technique called 'Demon Eye Technique,' which was incredibly powerful! His two eyes emitted a blood-red light that could bewitch people. Before I could even figure out what was going on, I was controlled by him."

"Yue Qianchou, stop talking nonsense and trying to confuse the public! Shut up!" Bing Cheng was really getting anxious. Anyone could hear the signs of desperation in his voice; he was on the verge of a riot. Pei Fang gave Qi Jiujun and Ouyang Da a look, and the three of them quickly stepped between him and Yue Qianchou.

"Yue Qianchou, speak freely and boldly," Pei Fang sneered. Regardless of the truth, the three of them would benefit the most from bringing down Bing Cheng. That's why they were so proactive in protecting Yue Qianchou's safety.

With a gloomy expression, Yin Baikang quietly transmitted his voice to Sikong Jue: "Send more men to set up ambushes in all the passages of the Treasure Gathering Basin. Don't let Yan Zhuixing escape. It would be best if we could capture him alive quietly." Sikong Jue quietly left to make the arrangements.

"Hehe!" Yue Qianchou said with a forced smile, "I estimate that Yan Zhuixing's Devil Cultivation Method are not yet fully mastered, perhaps still in their initial stages. After briefly losing consciousness, I actually recovered. I overheard his conversation with Man Hu. It turns out that the 'Demonic Eye Technique' he uses can turn people into his puppets, no matter how high your cultivation level is, you can be controlled by him. And the Seven Star Blood Orchid can help him master the Devil Cultivation Method. Once the Devil Cultivation Method are fully mastered, he will unify the entire Cultivation World."

Since he was targeting Yan Zhuixing, it was impossible for him not to embellish his words. He continued, "As soon as my body returned to normal, I immediately started fighting with the two of them. Tsk tsk! He casually threw a punch called 'Little Demon Fist,' and it actually shattered my Great Black Saber into pieces! Amazing! My sword is a treasure of a higher grade than a spiritual treasure! It couldn't even withstand one punch from him! Once his Devil Cultivation Method are fully mastered, what will he be like? It's a pity! As soon as he saw that his Devil Cultivation Method were exposed and that he couldn't kill me in a short time, he didn't bother with me and immediately ran away. Everyone saw what happened next."

Man Hu, the person involved, naturally knew that Yue Qianchou was taking the opportunity to escalate the situation, and immediately shouted, "Seniors, don't listen to his nonsense. He's talking complete rubbish. He and my junior brother have a grudge in the Huaxia Cultivation World, and he's just taking this opportunity to get revenge."

Bing Cheng also sneered, "Yue Qianchou, do you really think we're all three-year-olds, so easily fooled?"

Yue Qianchou raised an eyebrow and said, "It's easy to tell whether it's true or false. Just call Yan Zhuixing out and confront him face to face, and you'll find out clearly. I have a way to force out his Devil Cultivation Method."

"Ignorant brat, what do you take me for? Do you expect me to take orders from you? If it weren't for the others, you wouldn't be alive today!" Bing Cheng said sternly.

Just then, Sikong Jue flash, cupped his hands to Yin Baikang and said, "Master, news has come from the passage that Yan Zhuixing left the Treasure Gathering Basin in a hurry an hour ago."
