"Junior Disciple Xuanxiao~"
Ling Xuanxiao shuddered. This pressure rivaled that of the Tribulation Crossing Stage.
Ling Xuanxiao weakly turned around, looking at Senior Sister Su Wan with humility, timidity, and panic.
To be honest, if anyone was Ling Xuanxiao's nightmare—
The Old Emperor? That omnipresent puppet master in the shadows? Or Liu Qiushui from back then?
None of them!!
Only Su Wan.
She had appeared in Ling Xuanxiao's dreams more than once.
Now, Su Wan's younger sister, Su Mu, had been killed by him.
Su Wan's master, Daoist Liu Yi, the peak master of Little Bamboo Peak, had been driven to death by him.
He was even the teacher of Xiao Ran, Su Wan's former betrothed...
If Su Wan ever learned the truth one day—
Ling Xuanxiao did not dare imagine how spectacular that would be.
"Junior Disciple Xuanxiao, what mission did you accept?"
Ling Xuanxiao:...

"N... nothing."
"Junior Disciple Xuanxiao, don't be so self-conscious. Just tell me if there's something. Are you going out on another mission again?"
Su Wan's gaze fell upon the mission jade slip in Ling Xuanxiao's hand.
Ling Xuanxiao swallowed.
"..."
Several days later.
Shunping Township.
Two sword-riding figures descended one after the other.
Ling Xuanxiao controlled the speed of his flying sword, unwilling to overtake Su Wan.
To be honest, he had not seen Su Wan for quite some time.
Ever since Su Wan learned that Lin Wanqing had already reached Spirit Transformation, she had become increasingly diligent on the path of cultivation, swearing to surpass Lin Wanqing.
As a result, Ling Xuanxiao had enjoyed some peace and quiet for a while.
"Oh, honored immortals, you've finally arrived."
The one receiving them was the township chief of Shunping Township.
Shunping Township had always been remote and impoverished. Let alone outsiders, even demons
