A black light emanated from the burly old man's hand.

These past few days they've been ambushing and killing Red Cloud Sect Disciple in the Red Cloud Sect Market, deliberately creating chaos. This matter absolutely cannot go wrong; any survivors must be silenced immediately! A black beam of light shot out, transforming into a skull in mid-air, lunging directly at Chen Wang! But Chen Wang reacted extremely quickly, swiftly dodging backward, and with a flick of his finger, several sharp Sword Qi pierced through the air.

The Splitting Light Shadow Sword! He had mastered this basic swordsmanship to perfection.

The Sword Qi energy moves at will, with virtually no casting time.

The burly old man let out a soft exclamation, surprised that the young man he had encountered in this secluded part of the Market possessed such quick reflexes.

However, he didn't stop. He formed a hand Method Formula, and a black mist rose from his body. This black mist quickly spread throughout his body, blocking Chen Wang's Sword Qi.

Chen Wang unleashed three more Sword Qi with lightning speed! The black mist surrounding the old man was cleaved by the Sword Qi, a crack actually appearing in its surface. Startled, the old man quickly activated his magical Law Power.

"This kid has mastered swordsmanship to an extremely high level."

The burly old man still looked down on Chen Wang. In their previous exchange, he had already sensed that Chen Wang's Law Power was inferior to his own.

At this moment, a clear, cold voice rang out.

"How dare you!"

A tall female disciple of the Red Cloud Sect stood beside a long sword suspended in mid-air.

As her words fell, the longsword transformed into a streak of light, and with a bang, the black mist in front of the burly old man shattered. Bloodstains faintly appeared on his chest. After the strike, the sword once again hovered like You Long before the Red Cloud Sect female disciple. The aloof female cultivator glanced at the corpse of the Red Cloud Sect Disciple lying on the ground, her expression growing even colder.

"You're asking for it!"

The burly old man was initially surprised, but as a seasoned cultivator with years of combat experience, he remained remarkably calm.

He sneered, "The Red Cloud Sect's Sword Control Technique is indeed impressive."

A Black Iron Shield materialized in his hand, instantly growing to three feet in size and blocking his way. "You little brat, if I don't teach you a lesson, you'll really think I'm afraid of you!"

This burly old man had previously been chased by several disciples but managed to escape, leading them into an encirclement. His cultivation was extremely powerful. Now, he summoned his Black Iron Shield and unleashed his Divine Ability to attack! Chen Wang fastened the White Jade Bracelet in his sleeve but did not release it.

At this moment, the two were fighting fiercely, and he was subtly relegated to the sidelines, unnoticed by anyone.

At this moment, the burly old man was focused on fighting the female disciple of the Red Cloud Sect and had no intention of paying attention to Chen Wang.

This female cultivator's flying sword is extremely powerful.

The burly old man's shield was very sturdy and could block the flying sword attacks, but after being hit many times, cracks appeared on it, which made him very distressed.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Wang said to the female cultivator, "This fellow Daoist asked me to deliver a message to the Red Cloud Sect that these demons are about to attack the Pill Refining Hall. This matter is of great importance, and I hope you are aware of it!"

Chen Wang's voice was extremely clear and melodious, reaching the female cultivator's ears.

The female cultivator shuddered, glanced at Chen Wang, then turned and stared coldly at the burly old man. "You've got quite the scheme, and you've got some nerve too!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the flying sword in her hand emitted a clear Dragon's Roar's roar.

The sword was aimed directly at the burly old man! The old man, gripping his shield, took the blow, but his arm grew numb and sore. He glared at Chen Wang with venomous eyes.

"Kid, I'll remember this!"

The Xuanji of this matter was revealed by someone. He had just fought with this woman several times and found that her flying sword was extremely sharp. He intended to leave, made a hand Method Formula, and a black aura suddenly burst out!

The female cultivator pointed her fingers like a sword and slashed down, the black energy spreading outwards! The burly old man raised his shield and grunted, clearly not expecting the woman to react so quickly.

He simply slapped two talismans on his body, and his legs immediately glowed with a blue light. With a flash, he dashed off into the wilderness!

The female cultivator did not pursue them; she was preoccupied with what Chen Wang had just said.

The flying sword transformed into a streak of azure light and landed in her hand.

The tall female cultivator slowly walked towards Chen Wang, holding her long sword upside down.

"How shall I address you, fellow Daoist?"

This female cultivator possessed an extraordinary demeanor and exceptional skills, yet she was quite polite to Chen Wang at this moment.

Chen Wang said, "My name is Chen Wang. I am a rogue cultivator in the Market, and I make a living by drawing talismans."

He identified himself as someone who had lived in the area for many years and whose identity could be easily determined with a little investigation.

The female cultivator was taken aback at first, then nodded slightly. "Fellow Daoist, you were righteous in reporting the news and you weren't afraid of the old man's revenge just now. But you just said that they were going to attack the Pill Refining Hall?"

Chen Wang nodded and pointed to the corpse that was now lying on the ground. "Just now I was cultivating here when this fellow Daoist rushed over. I saw that he was wearing the clothes of Red Cloud Sect Disciple. He was the one who said what just happened. He wanted to stop this old man so that I could go and deliver the message. I didn't expect that the old man was too ruthless. In the rush, he was already dead."

Chen Wang told the whole story.

The female cultivator nodded slightly, took out a talisman, which spontaneously combusted in the air without wind, turning into a flame and disappearing. Then, she said to Chen Wang in a calm tone, "My name is Su Jie, and I am a Red Cloud Sect Disciple. I will report this matter to the sect."

Chen Wang cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.

A moment later, several figures arrived, all dressed in the attire of the Red Cloud Sect.

"Senior Sister!"

Several disciples spoke in unison, clearly showing great respect for the woman.

Su Jie nodded slightly. "Junior Brother Sun died at the hands of the Five Poisons Sect. You should dispose of his body. You should take good care of this Fellow Chen Wang in the future and make sure nothing happens to him."

"Yes."

Several disciples said in unison.

Su Jie turned to Chen Wang and clasped her hands in greeting. "Fellow Daoist Chen, I will report this matter to the sect. Please wait nearby."

Chen Wang said, "Okay."

The Red Cloud Sect Disciple have always been arrogant and haughty, and this woman was even more so, possessing a cold and aloof demeanor.

But now it seems that this woman is not an aloof and unapproachable person.

Su Jie used her Movement Method to escape, and the Enforcement Team officers patrolling nearby looked at Chen Wang with considerable curiosity.

Su Jie was considered Fairy- like figure among the young disciples of the Red Cloud Sect and was highly respected. She personally instructed people to take care of Chen Wang and ensure his safety.

There were no dramatic or melodramatic scenes involving hostility towards Chen Wang.

After Chen Wang spoke with the group for a short while, someone took the deceased disciple of the Red Cloud Sect away.

Two disciples then stayed behind to guard Chen Wang.

An hour passed, and Su Jie still hadn't returned. Instead, she sent a girl who looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old. The girl had delicate features, and the two Red Cloud Sect Disciple greeted her, "Junior Sister Lin."

The woman also greeted the two men, bowing to each of them.

The woman surnamed Lin said, "Senior Sister Su asked me to come and see Chen Wang."

"There are some things I need to say to him alone."
