The Demon of the Saber had just placed an executioner's saber against an Imperial Guard's throat, ready to slit it, when his chest suddenly exploded.

Blood gushed out.

The two individuals, fierce and menacing just a moment before, were sent to the underworld without even a scream.

This sudden turn of events caused the actions of the Fierce Demon and the Spear Demon to freeze instantly.

They stared in disbelief. Their two sworn brothers, who had fought alongside them for years, were dead just like that?

They seemed unable to believe that everything happening before their eyes was real.

"How is this possible? You are so young, could you already be a Grandmaster Realm martial artist?"

The expressions on their faces froze.

In their place was a bone-deep fear. Their gazes towards Su Fei were as if they had seen a ghost.

The next second, the Spear Demon let out a strange cry. Seeing this, he turned and ran, carrying his spear. He used his Lightness Skill to its utmost, his movements as agile as a wild cat.

He didn't even care about the bodies of his sworn brothers.

The Fierce Demon also reacted at this moment, letting out a terrified low growl from his throat.

His liver and gallbladder felt like they were about to split. He turned and fled, his speed even faster than the Spear Demon's.

"You killed my brothers, and now you think you can escape? Don't you think it's too late?"

Su Fei's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached both of them.

"No matter how fast you are, can you be faster than True Qi?"

Before his voice even faded, he flicked two more streams of True Qi from his fingertips.

The Spear Demon, who was in the process of climbing over a wall, suddenly stiffened. A spray of blood erupted from the back of his neck, and he fell straight down from mid-air. After a couple of twitches, he was silent.

The Fierce Demon, who had reached the village entrance, was even more unlucky. He was just about to charge through a fence.

He felt a surge of joy in his heart, thinking he had successfully escaped.

The next second, his head suddenly exploded, like a watermelon.

His headless corpse fell to the ground with a thud.

In just a few breaths, the Four Demons of the Northern Region, who had instilled fear throughout the martial world, were all annihilated by Su Fei's flick of his fingers.

The sounds of fighting nearby also paused for a moment. Whether it was the Imperial Guard or the White Lotus Sect followers, they were all stunned by this unfathomable scene.

Officer Zhang, seeing this, looked at Su Fei with gratitude and then shouted.

"Officer Su is mighty! He killed the Four Demons of the Northern Region!"

Following this, the deafening cheers of the Imperial Guard echoed throughout the entire village.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The morale of the Imperial Guard soared. Everyone was filled with fighting spirit, roaring as they charged towards the White Lotus Sect followers.

The White Lotus Sect followers, who were still resisting, looked at Su Fei with fear in their eyes, and their morale began to wane.

Even the Four Demons of the Northern Region were killed by the Imperial Guard. How could they, the White Lotus Sect followers, be a match for the Imperial Guard?

The tide of the battle began to turn in favor of the Imperial Guard.

Su Fei drew his Spring Embroidered Saber and headed towards the area where the White Lotus Sect followers were most numerous.

At this point, there were those who considered escaping.

But the fleeing White Lotus Sect followers were quickly forced back, their faces filled with despair.

"The entrance ahead and the entrance behind are blocked by the Qingzhou Army. There is no way out."

After a while, Qin Wushang, who was engaged in a fierce battle in mid-air, looked down at the battlefield. He was instantly filled with shock and anger.

This was because the situation on the battlefield at this moment was extremely unfavorable to the White Lotus Sect.

Quite a few disciples had already chosen to discard their weapons and were squatting on the ground, surrendering.

There were only thirty to forty White Lotus Sect followers still fighting. They were surrounded by the Imperial Guard, and their situation was dire.

His face was filled with shock and confusion. In his opinion, although the Imperial Guard had a slightly larger number, the White Lotus Sect members were also not weak in strength, and they had the Four Demons of the Northern Region.

Why had they lost so miserably?

It should be known that these fallen White Lotus Sect followers were all the foundation he had accumulated.

If the fighting continued like this and they were all wiped out, his status in the Divine Cult would inevitably plummet.

Qin Wushang wanted to intervene and rescue them, but Feng Changqing had been persistently engaging him.

His strength was similar to his own; both were at the Grandmaster Realm third level.

To repel him and take his people away, it seemed he only had one option.

Qin Wushang became increasingly agitated.

A trace of ferocity flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly took out a blood-red pill from his embrace.

Commander Feng's expression changed drastically upon seeing this.

"Life-Sacrificing Pill, you actually brought a Life-Sacrificing Pill."

He had seen records of it in the files; it was an evil elixir refined by the White Lotus Sect, which overdrafted the body's potential to temporarily boost cultivation.

It came at the cost of damaging one's foundation, and its effects only lasted for the duration of one incense stick.

Qin Wushang didn't reply, tilting his head back and swallowing the pill.

Instantly, his Qi and Blood surged, his skin turned red as blood, his aura visibly exploded, and a faint bloody halo appeared around him.

His aura reached Grandmaster Realm fifth level.

"Feng Changqing, get out of my way."

Qin Wushang unleashed a palm strike, his palm force several times stronger than before.

Commander Feng, enveloped by this aura, dared not be careless and fully activated Stone Splitting Hand to resist.

With a muffled "bang," he was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string. He managed to stop himself in mid-air, spitting out a mouthful of blood, clearly having sustained a serious injury.

"Annoying fellow, I'll let you off for today."

Qin Wushang snorted coldly, ignoring Commander Feng. He descended from the air like an arrow, sweeping his palms forward.

Several Imperial Guards who attempted to intercept were instantly sent flying.

He strode towards the surrounded White Lotus cultists, his eyes flashing with madness.

"Follow me!"

Seeing this, the surrounded White Lotus cultists' eyes rekindled with hope, and they all converged towards Qin Wushang.

The Imperial Guards were awestruck by Qin Wushang's current might, and not a single one dared to step forward to stop him.

The pressure of the Grandmaster Realm fifth level was simply beyond their capacity to withstand.

Moreover, they had all witnessed Qin Wushang taking the forbidden medicine and repelling Commander Feng with a single palm strike just now.

They didn't believe they were Qin Wushang's match.

At this moment, a clear voice rang out.

"You want to leave? Did you ask me first?"

Su Fei's figure appeared before Qin Wushang, blocking his path.

His gaze was as cold as frost.

For Su Fei, if Qin Wushang were to take these White Lotus cultists away, his mission would be considered a failure.

He couldn't even let Qin Wushang escape, as he was the main culprit.

In response to Su Fei's words.

Qin Wushang laughed in anger, sizing Su Fei up and down.

"It's you. I remember you. Kid, you were the one who ruined my good deeds last time. Now you've been promoted to Hundred Households Officer."

"You're just a Hundred Households Officer, do you think you're something special? You dare to block me, are you looking for death?"

Commander Feng, seeing this from a distance, felt his heart tighten and quickly shouted.

"Su Fei, get out of the way. Don't go to your death in vain."

"If the green hills remain, there will be wood to burn. If you can't catch him this time, you can catch him next time."

He knew how terrifying Qin Wushang was at the moment. For a short period, he was a powerful martial artist comparable to a Grandmaster Realm fifth level expert. Didn't he almost kill him just now?

Although Su Fei's cultivation was good, Commander Feng didn't believe Su Fei could be a match for the Qin Wushang before him.

Qin Wushang sneered.

"Since you're seeking death, I'll grant it to you."

He thrust his palms forward, unleashing the White Lotus Annihilation Palm.

A massive gray palm took shape, carrying gray gusts of wind, and slammed towards Su Fei like an overcast sky, as if intending to crush him into a pulp.
