"Kill!" the six red-robed eunuchs said, their eyes narrowing.

Killing Zuo Qianhu was the purpose of this operation. Director Cao had long since given the order.

The six figures charged together, Steel Sabers in hand. All of them were at the Eighth Level of Xiantian, and none were ordinary.

Zuo Qianhu stood tall and heroic, his saber stained with blood. There was a trace of weariness between his brows.

His eyes narrowed as he swiftly retreated. His black robe billowed, and countless flying knives tore through the air toward them.

The cold gleam of those flying knives struck fear into the heart, and they were incredibly fast.

The six men's expressions changed. They halted, gathering Xiantian Gang Qi around their bodies to block the flying knives outside.

Heavenly Gang Virginity Art!

"How satisfying it is to kill eunuch dogs!" Zuo Qianhu threw back his head and laughed. A long saber flew from behind his back as he suddenly hurled it out.

His flying knives were peerless, never missing their mark, but his strongest weapons were still the six long sabers on his back.

One saber ripped through the air, cutting down one man!

An eunuch at the Eighth Level of Xiantian was immediately sent flying, nailed to the wall, never to make another sound.

Another saber!

Another man died!

Every strike took a life. Even after being worn down by a succession of enemies, Zuo Qianhu remained unmatched!

Gongsun Wuji's expression changed in the distance. If this continued, Zuo Qianhu might truly take several more of them down with him.

He came charging over with twin hammers in hand, wielding force capable of shattering a thousand jun.

Zuo Qianhu held his saber horizontally before him, but the blade was smashed alive into a curve. He was sent flying into the rock wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"You will die today!" Gongsun Wuji said coldly.

"I serve His Majesty with loyalty. Why should I fear death?"

Zuo Qianhu swallowed the blood in his throat, his gaze heroic as he spoke calmly.

"Death is merely death! I killed eighteen hundred of your men! Two at the Eighth Level of Xiantian!"

Zuo Qianhu's aura surged around him. His massive, towering body seemed to shake the heavens, leaving the others stunned.

"It looks like he intends to force a breakthrough into the Earth Fiend Realm. Kill him quickly!" Gongsun Wuji said with a slight frown.

Zuo Qianhu had long reached the Peak of Ninth Level of Xiantian. If he broke through into the Earth Fiend Realm, with his heaven-defying talent, he might truly succeed.

"In the end, there still isn't enough time..."

Watching the three eunuchs charge at him, Zuo Qianhu sighed softly, his eyes calm.

If only he had another quarter of an hour. He could have killed every last one of them here.

Even with death looming over him, Zuo Qianhu showed no fear. He still possessed boundless fighting spirit.

His astonishing bearing left all who saw it shaken.

"Kill!"

He drew the last two long sabers from his back, gripped them horizontally, gathered Blade Aura, and charged directly at the three men.

Blood flowed, and his peerless figure pierced the heart.

Just then, there was a thunderous boom as the rock wall high in the distance suddenly split apart.

Rubble scattered everywhere. Amid the flying stones, a figure appeared.

He wore black robes dark as ink. The Azure Dragon Crescent Blade in his hand was covered in chips, while his indifferent gaze and violent presence startled everyone.

"Who goes there? State your name!"

Gongsun Wuji held his twin hammers, his expression changing as he shouted.

"My name is Su Changqing!"

Su Changqing had crossed dozens of caverns before finding this place. Even the edge of his Azure Dragon Crescent Blade had curled.

"So you are the so-called Little Guan Gong? You picked up Jiang Tianfeng's inheritance, and now you dare to boast?" Gongsun Wuji sneered, about to speak again.

But Su Changqing raised the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade in his hand and suddenly hurled it straight at Gongsun Wuji.

The long blade tore through the air with a ringing cry, like the roar of a savage beast.

Gongsun Wuji's expression changed. He had not expected Su Changqing to be so decisive and ruthless.

He raised his twin hammers before him to meet the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade. With a boom, he staggered back several steps, his palms going numb from the impact.

"You little bastard! What tremendous strength! No wonder they call you Little Guan Gong!" Gongsun Wuji said coldly.

He looked up, only to see that after throwing the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade, Su Changqing had already dashed toward Zuo Qianhu.

Su Changqing scooped Zuo Qianhu up with one arm, stepped onto the rock wall, and moved as lightly as a swallow as he prepared to return the way he had come.

"Shameless!" Gongsun Wuji roared furiously, swinging his great hammer.

The three eunuchs at the Eighth Level of Xiantian were also stunned. They had heard Su Changqing's name—Little Guan Gong.

And this was worthy of being called Little Guan Gong?

He had simply thrown away the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade, as if he did not want it anymore.

The three eunuchs charged together, their eyes cold and sharp, the Steel Sabers in their hands flashing with chilling light.

"Su Changqing, put me down. You are only at the Fifth Level of Xiantian. You will die here," Zuo Qianhu said softly.

Su Changqing said nothing. He remained suspended in midair, one foot planted against the rock wall. Like a great black roc spreading its wings, he watched the three men with a cold, sharp gaze.

As the three drew closer, Su Changqing suddenly drew the Frost Snow Saber. Blossoms of ice crystals bloomed in the air, dreamlike and illusory.

Tyrant Saber! Heartless Slash!

He roared toward the heavens, holding Frost Snow in one hand. Golden light enveloped his entire body, making him resemble a golden god.

A peerless slash swept across the nine heavens!

The three eunuchs' expressions changed at once, their eyes filled with horror. "Heartless Slash?!"

This saber contained invisible Blade Aura, unmatched since ancient times, its ringing cry piercing the ears!

The three men retreated at top speed in terror. The sabers in their hands were almost instantly cut into two.

"Other than Guihai Yidao, is there anyone else in this world who can cultivate the saber of severing emotion, righteousness, compassion, love, kinship, and friendship to such a realm?"

The three red-robed eunuchs had only broken blades left in their hands. They exchanged glances, their hearts filled with shock.

Gongsun Wuji stared at the great hole high in the rock wall, malice flashing in his eyes. This man was even more astonishing than Jiang Xingxing!

At the Fifth Level of Xiantian, one slash had forced back three experts at the Eighth Level of Xiantian. Such a thing had never been heard of in the martial world.

"He cannot escape!" Gongsun Wuji growled coldly.

Su Changqing carried Zuo Qianhu on his back as he swiftly withdrew through the great hole in the rock wall from which he had entered.

In the distance, Jin Yichuan and numerous Imperial Guards appeared. Seeing him carrying the heavily wounded Zuo Qianhu, their expressions immediately changed.

"Su Changqing, how is Zuo Qianhu?" Jin Yichuan hurriedly asked.

"Zuo Qianhu has entered the Life-and-Death Gate. If he succeeds, he will reach the Earth Fiend Realm. If he fails, he dies," Su Changqing said.

"What about Snow Fatty and Snow Thin..."

Jin Yichuan was about to ask more when Su Changqing snatched the waist token from Zuo Qianhu's belt.

The Thousand Household token was a jade-like flood dragon, crystal-clear and translucent. It was now stained with blood, a dazzling crimson.

Holding the jade token, he fixed his cold gaze on Jin Yichuan, Zhou Chu, the Deputy Thousand Household, and everyone else.

"All Imperial Guards, throw down every arrow at your waists. Zhou Chu, have all your men remain here at the high ground. A hundred men will fire arrows! Three consecutive volleys!

"The rest of you, gather dry firewood!

"I want a blazing fire to burn all four Xiantian experts to death here!"

His voice was as calm as water, yet it sent chills down everyone's spine.

Jin Yichuan hesitated, about to speak, but everyone around him had already obeyed. They began moving with rustling sounds.

"Fine. Once this is over, if you do not become a Thousand Household, I will have to be demoted to Deputy Thousand Household," Jin Yichuan said with a bitter smile.

This time, he had truly spent the whole way merely accompanying Su Changqing, led along by him.

"Snow Fatty and Snow Thin were likely both killed by Su Changqing. He was able to save Zuo Qianhu and escape alive from among four Xiantian experts while carrying someone..."

Jin Yichuan's heart stirred as he looked at Su Changqing.
