Fellow Daoist, Save Me

After receiving a signal from the Ji Family major figure, a knight, fully armored and radiating a murderous aura, flew out from the crowd on a savage beast.

"You little brat, come out and face your death!"

Shen Ye naturally had no intention of acting himself. Before he could convert his techniques into a version suitable for this universe, he was essentially a blank slate, full of spiritual power but lacking any divine abilities.

Although with his experience and insight, he could still win even without divine abilities or techniques, doing so would instantly shatter the "cool factor" he had so carefully cultivated!

Hua Yue stepped forward two paces, her voice clear and chillingly resolute: "To dare disrespect the Young Lord—death!"

With that, she gave the other party no chance to argue, directly strumming the zither strings!

World Condensing Sound!

The moment the invisible sound waves entered the knight's ears, they solidified into a physical form, and the knight's brain exploded like a ripe watermelon!

"They actually settled the fight in an instant!" Everyone's pupils constricted.

No one cared about the knight's life or death; their attention was clearly on this maiden, as bright as the moon.

"A 'veteran' of the Four Extremities at fourteen or fifteen? Heh!" A major figure from Yaoguang let out a cold, unreadable laugh.

The Four Extremities realm wasn't much, actually. If these major powers wished, they could pile up resources to create a group of Four Extremities cultivators. The problem was, this kind of resource-fueled Four Extremities foundation was weak, their combat power low, and they had almost no chance of further breakthroughs!

The combat power she displayed was clearly not that of such a defective product!

One must know that the Ji Family's knights were not weak among those of the same realm!

A Four Extremities cultivator at fourteen or fifteen, and one capable of instantly killing others at the same level—even some Holy Sons from sacred lands were no more impressive than this!

In this deathly silence, several more knights rushed out, shouting, "Demoness, how dare you harm my brother!"

The major figures did not stop them. They could naturally see that the attack range of her previous move was not wide; she had only confined the solidified sound waves to an extremely small area around the deceased knight!

Hua Yue's mind was as calm as still water as she strummed the zither strings again.

The zither's resonance vibrated, rippling through the air.

Curse of Separation and Chaos!

With the previous lesson still fresh, none dared to underestimate her. They unleashed various protective divine abilities all at once, shielding their ears.

However, this sound attack seemed to have failed this time, as none of them felt any discomfort.

After confirming that no delayed bomb was hidden in their ears, the knights, faces ferocious, swung their long sabers towards Hua Yue!

Long sabers cut through the air, blood splattered, and a beautiful head flew high into the sky. The knights burst into wild laughter.

But before they could finish laughing, they realized that Hua Yue, despite being headless, could still strum the zither strings.

"What kind of monster is this?" The knights, refusing to believe, this time sliced her body into pieces with a single strike.

Still unsatisfied, they then charged towards Shen Ye.

Just as they reached Shen Ye, a major figure's grim voice reached their ears: "You're a disgrace! Get back!"

The knights' spiritual senses wavered, and their eyes cleared. They saw that two of their brothers had already fallen in pools of blood, and the target of their shouts and attacks had become their own major figure.

Clearly, the two who died from infighting were nothing. What truly caused the Ji Family major figure to lose face was that his subordinates were being controlled by Hua Yue to attack him, forcing him to intervene personally!

The knights retreated in terror: "Your subordinates are terrified!"

The Ji Family major figure let out a cold snort, his gaze grim as he looked at Hua Yue: "Little girl, what vicious methods you possess!"

Hua Yue's eyes were calm, not intimidated by his murderous gaze. She retorted, "Still holding back even after stepping into the fray? Are all of you from the Ji Family this childish?"

"Presumptuous! The Ji Family is not something you can comment on!" The Ji Family major figure rebuked, suppressing his anger as he looked at Shen Ye, "Young one, do you dare to reveal your origin and name?"

Shen Ye had already planned to gain fame to harvest prestige, so he naturally wouldn't refuse: "Shen Ye, the next Ziwei High Priest of the City of Flowing Moon!"

"Shen Ye? There isn't a single Ancient Desolate Family with the surname Shen! And the City of Flowing Moon—this venerable one has never heard of such a power!" The Ji Family major figure subtly recalled in his mind, "Could it be that some power gained a great opportunity and wants to ascend to a major sect, deliberately sending out a few youngsters to test our reaction?"

Thinking this, he felt much more at ease, but still remained somewhat wary. He then turned his attention to Hua Yue: "Little girl, although this venerable one doesn't wish to bully the young, I cannot pretend not to hear your disrespectful words towards the Ji Family. How about this: if you can withstand three of my moves and survive, this venerable one will not pursue your offense of disrespect!"

The other four major figures sneered inwardly. A Half-step Immortal Platform expert attacking a Four Extremities realm cultivator, and still having the nerve to promise a three-move limit—it was clear he didn't want to give her any chance at all!

Shen Ye chuckled softly: "Heh, if the Ji Family disrespects me, then what should be done?"

The Ji Family major figure took a deep breath: "Young one, do you know the saying 'trouble comes from the mouth'? Do not bring disaster of annihilation upon the power behind you!"

Shen Ye felt quite speechless. Why hasn't this guy attacked yet? This doesn't conform to his understanding of the Shrouding the Heavens World!

However, he was too lazy to waste any more words on the other party: "Since you want a three-move limit, then I'll grant your wish. If you can survive three moves, I'll let you go!"

Hearing Shen Ye's arrogant words, the Ji Family major figure wanted to laugh. Could this brat be trying to pretend he has a protector by his side to scare him away?

Unfortunately, his Ji Family possessed the Imperial Art, Void Scripture, which could detect the void. Even a peerless grand elder of the Immortal Platform realm could absolutely not hide in the surrounding void without him perceiving it!

But just as he was about to make his move, he saw Hua Yue take out an egg-shaped device.

A flash of light, and the next moment, a headless warrior actually swung a sharp axe at him!

This headless warrior had no divine energy gushing from his body, nor any radiance blooming, appearing like an ordinary mortal general. Yet, the Ji Family major figure felt a fatal threat from this axe!

He had no time to figure out what was happening and instinctively activated the Great Void Art, wanting to escape this space.

However, the space, which had originally responded to him like fish to water, now remained unresponsive.

"This monster has actually sealed off this space!" The Ji Family major figure was greatly alarmed and hurriedly summoned his protective treasure mirror, placing it before his chest.

Then, to his utter horror, he heard a "crack," and the treasure artifact, a replica of the Void Mirror, shattered instantly!

However, the mirror ultimately bought him some time. He wasn't torn to shreds by that axe, but instead flew backward like a cannonball, blood spraying everywhere.

Before he could even catch his breath, he heard that grim reaper-like voice again: "Not bad. Now for the second move!"

The Ji Family elder was terrified; one axe strike had nearly cost him his life. How could he possibly defend against another?

In his panic, he looked at the other four and cried out, "Friends, save me!"
