A Visitor Arrives at Misty Pavilion

Everyone turned to look at him. What was there to stop? They had already stopped!

It had all happened fast. Niu Youdao had drawn his sword and slashed two men to death, then the Heaven Sword Talisman had fired off in a burst, and it was over. By the time Bai Yulou appeared, only the standoff remained.

They had already stopped. Niu Youdao stood with one hand resting on his sword, a Heaven Sword Talisman pinched between his fingers as he looked disdainfully in all directions. A group of Zhao Kingdom cultivators had formed a crescent-shaped encirclement around him, and the two sides faced off.

A group of Misty Pavilion cultivators also flashed over, surrounding the scene and bringing the situation under control.

Though grief-stricken and enraged, the Zhao Kingdom cultivators were still somewhat nervous and afraid when they saw Misty Pavilion step in. They had fought in Heaven Valley, at the entrance to the Tiandu Secret Realm, right under Misty Pavilion's nose. It would be a lie to say they were not afraid—especially when all the pillars of strength on the Zhao Kingdom side had been wiped out, leaving only them. None of them had any confidence.

The moment Bai Yulou shouted for them to stop and the Misty Pavilion people appeared, the Zhao Kingdom cultivators immediately lowered their drawn weapons one after another. No one dared defy them.

Niu Youdao swept his cold gaze around, then leisurely put away the Heaven Sword Talisman in his hand.

Bai Yulou flashed into the battlefield, looked over the bloody ground strewn with severed limbs and broken legs, then suddenly turned back. Facing Niu Youdao head-on, he advanced toward him step by step.

Niu Youdao stood still, one hand on his sword, watching him without moving an inch.
