"System, exchange a Heaven-tier blade technique for me."

"Ding."

Congratulations to the host for successfully consuming 100,000,000 Shock Points.

In an instant, a blade technique called White Bone Saber Song appeared in Ye Qianqian's mind.

"Cold light, sharp blade, heartless saber; thunder strikes, heaven and earth shake."

Seeing her form a saber seal with her hand, her movements as fast as lightning, she unleashed a move, "Forcefully Split Mount Hua," and slashed fiercely at She Xiuyue.

A thousand-zhang blade aura, chilling like ice, mixed with the might of rolling thunder, swept towards them like lightning.

She Xiuyue had never seen such a Dou Technique before. The blade aura was too fast, leaving her completely unprepared. She could only use a secret technique, releasing all her Dou Qi to form an egg-shaped energy shield to protect herself.

"Boom."

The blade aura struck, hitting She Xiuyue and sending her flying back thousands of meters like a cannonball.

The heavens and earth shook, and all things were frozen. The many experts of the Heavenly Snake Mansion were thrown into disarray, with many of their bodies shattered by the blade aura. Even Dou Ancestor experts spat blood.

"Qing Luan Warship, obliterate this person!"

She Xiuyue spat blood, her expression terrified. Her internal organs churned violently. Such a blade technique was completely comparable to the power of a four-star Dou Venerate.

Following She Xiuyue's command, the Heavenly Snake Mansion experts on the Dou Qi warships immediately formed seals with their hands. The fifty-plus massive flying warships erupted with green light, their formation patterns shining. Beams of energy cannons fired towards Ye Qianqian.

The power of these colossal cannons was astonishing; a single beam could kill a Dou Emperor expert. If She Xiuyue hadn't been overconfident just now, believing she could easily crush her opponent, she would have launched these warships long ago.

The people of the Heavenly Snake Mansion and the Misty Cloud Sect were all entangled, unable to separate. The warships could not fire downwards, but they had no qualms about attacking Ye Qianqian in the sky.

As fifty-plus energy beams rained down, Ye Qianqian showed no panic. Instead, she let out a cold laugh, formed seals again, and slashed out another saber strike.

"Wind and clouds roll back, the firmament changes; shatter the nine heavens in anger."

This time, the blade aura was even more terrifying than before, its power having risen another level.

The firmament suddenly changed color, and the wind and clouds of heaven and earth seemed to obey her command, all pouring into her saber.

Raising her saber, the space before her shattered, and all the warships' cannons were instantly annihilated. With an unstoppable momentum, she destroyed several warships.

"How could this be? Damn it!" She Xiuyue watched as five or six Qing Luan Warships behind her were shattered by the blade aura, her heart filled with grief and indignation.

"Sect Master, let's retreat quickly!" The old woman from before tried to persuade her again. The opponent's strength was simply too great. The Heavenly Snake Mansion had countless experts, but they were not on the same level as her.

"Retreat? Why retreat? Today, this sect master will slay this brat!" She Xiuyue refused to admit defeat. With a wave of her hand, all the Dou Ancestor experts followed behind her, charging madly towards Ye Qianqian.

The warships unleashed their cannons again, covering She Xiuyue and the others as they charged.

Ye Qianqian's cold eyes focused. She changed the seals in her left hand and slashed out again with her right hand, wielding her crescent moon saber.

"Slaughter thousands of heroes' heads, sever countless overlords' brains."

The saber song chanted, the laws resonated with heaven and earth.

An invisible and colorless saber energy swept out, and a shocking scene unfolded. The heads of numerous Dou Kings and Dou Emperors bizarrely fell from their shoulders. Even a few weaker Dou Ancestor experts were decapitated by the invisible saber energy. Everyone was terrified, cold sweat streaming down their faces.

As a Dou Venerate, She Xiuyue naturally sensed a slight airflow and immediately retreated in fear. However, this put the Dou Ancestor experts behind her in a dire situation. Some were decapitated, while others were cut in half. Only a very small number survived.

"The four seas and nine provinces crack open, stars shatter in one move!"

Ye Qianqian slashed heavily at those Qing Luan Warships. The warships in the sky exploded one by one, like dazzling fireworks on a festival.

"Ancestor is mighty!"

"Ancestor is mighty!"

"Ancestor is mighty!"

The Misty Cloud Sect disciples' morale soared. Seeing Ye Qianqian defeat the enemy in just a few moves, they erupted in cheers.

"Sect Master, let's retreat! If we don't retreat now, the Heavenly Snake Mansion will be finished!" The old woman wailed, tears streaming down her face as drops of water dripped between her legs, soaking her pants. This little girl was too terrifying.

"Retreat!" She Xiuyue, filled with unwillingness, led the remaining scattered forces and fled rapidly towards the outside of Misty Cloud Mountain.

The Heavenly Snake Mansion disciples below were like stray dogs, throwing down their weapons and discarding their armor as they fled for their lives.

How could the Misty Cloud Sect disciples let this opportunity pass? They were like gangsters, wielding swords, spears, and sabers, pursuing and slaughtering their enemies, killing countless foes.

"Did I let you run?"

Ye Qianqian roared, unleashing another saber strike at She Xiuyue's retreating back.

"The saber's might lies in the heart; the will is strong, the enemy cannot escape."

The person borrowed the saber's power, the saber borrowed the person's momentum. With a horizontal slash, saber intent surged. The Dou Ancestor's physical body shattered, and She Xiuyue spat blood, falling from the sky.

She Xiuyue's earlier vow to destroy the Misty Cloud Sect now seemed like a joke.

"You... you devil, you... little devil!"

Seeing Ye Qianqian smiling and waving at her in the sky, She Xiuyue scrambled away in terror. Even as a Dou Venerate, she had lost all semblance of a powerful expert's demeanor.

"Devil?" Ye Qianqian blinked. She didn't agree with the title, as she felt she had been even more terrifying than a devil just now.

"You dare to cause trouble at my Misty Cloud Sect, so you should bear this sect master's wrath. Die!"

Ye Qianqian unleashed her full Dou Qi, performing the final move of the White Bone Saber Song.

"Achieve eternal immortal deeds, mountains of bone, seas of blood, gods and demons wail!"

BOOM!

She unleashed her strongest saber strike, and the space around Ye Qianqian distorted, revealing a vision of hell on earth.

A scarlet sky, mountains of white bone, and a river of blood flowing with countless heads, like an Asura's slaughterhouse.

She Xiuyue was stunned, the remaining soldiers of the Heavenly Snake Mansion were also stunned, and the disciples of the Misty Cloud Sect were so shocked their eyeballs nearly popped out.

CRASH!

Just then, an old woman in white appeared before She Xiuyue. With a wave of her Serpent Cane, she shattered the saber energy with a loud bang.

"Five-star Dou Venerate?" Ye Qianqian frowned, looking down.

"Alas, it seems I've arrived too late!" The old woman in white saw that the Heavenly Snake Mansion's people were either dead or injured and couldn't help but shake her head in self-reproach.

"Supreme Elder, you must avenge us!" Seeing the newcomer, She Xiuyue finally had someone to rely on and began to cry.

The person who arrived was none other than the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Snake Mansion, She Qingqing.

She had originally planned to investigate the situation further, but she didn't expect this brat She Xiuyue, who was hot-headed and brainless, to rush over to the Misty Cloud Sect without permission. Now, even if the Misty Cloud Sect wasn't responsible for what happened before, this feud was set.

"It's all your own doing that caused so many of my Heavenly Snake Mansion's strong experts to perish on the spot. And you're still crying here?" She Qingqing snorted angrily.

"Supreme Elder, we've arrived." Five more old women flew in from the distant horizon. These five were all around three-star Dou Venerate cultivation.

These five old women were also old monsters from the Heavenly Snake Mansion who had been in seclusion for a long time and had never shown themselves. After being summoned by She Qingqing, they went to the scene together.

The appearance of these Venerable Elders immediately put Yun Shan and the others in a state of panic.

The Heavenly Snake Mansion actually had so many Dou Venerate experts. No wonder no one dared to provoke them on the Northwest Continent. What should they do now!

"Mmm."

She Qingqing nodded and looked at Ye Qianqian in the sky, smiling, "If this old woman's guess is correct, you must be the backing of the Misty Cloud Sect, right?"

"Yes, so what?" Ye Qianqian also smiled, unafraid of this person's strength.

She Qingqing said, "That's good. You just killed so many of my Heavenly Snake Mansion's people. Shouldn't you make some sort of gesture?"

Ye Qianqian appeared to be deep in thought and said, "I should make a gesture, otherwise I would feel guilty!"

After She Qingqing nodded with satisfaction, Ye Qianqian suddenly said, "You killed so many people, I'll compensate you with some funeral expenses. How much should I pay?" She snapped her fingers and suddenly realized, "Are two gold coins enough? If not, I'll add another gold coin. I can't give any more, even the landlord is running out of grain!"

"You..." She Qingqing was so enraged that her composure shattered.

"Today, all my Heavenly Snake Mansion's experts are destroyed. So, according to this old woman's wishes, you should all surrender to my Heavenly Snake Mansion and become my disciples. If that's the case, I can spare your lives. You've cultivated for many years and finally achieved something. Wouldn't it be a pity to die? Think carefully!"

"What?" Everyone on Misty Cloud Mountain was shocked by She Qingqing's words. The Heavenly Snake Mansion actually wanted to annex them.

"Alright, so that's what it is. I can consider it," Ye Qianqian said with a smile again. "However, you old lady needs to offer something before we are willing to surrender."

"Ancestor..." Yun Shan was unwilling. Their Misty Cloud Sect had finally grown strong, how could they become subordinates of others?

Xie Biyan also refused to accept this reality.

She Qingqing asked, "Offer what?"

Ye Qianqian burst into laughter, "Of course, it's your thick skin, old lady!"

"Hahahaha!" The tens of thousands of people on Misty Cloud Mountain burst into laughter. So that's what Ye Qianqian meant!

That's right, this She Qingqing was indeed thick-skinned, demanding to annex the Misty Cloud Empire with a single breath. Who did she think she was!

"Waaah, I'm so angry!"

She Qingqing was provoked by Ye Qianqian again and again, and her anger surged. She was determined to kill this brat today.

Seeing her unleash her powerful Dou Qi, the air waves surged. She tapped the ground with her Serpent Cane, and the ground began to crack.

Instantly, buildings turned to dust, mountain peaks collapsed, hurricanes swept across the land, and disciples screamed, covering their heads.

This was the ultimate power of a five-star Dou Venerate expert.

Ye Qianqian couldn't believe it. The gap between her strength and She Qingqing's was only two stars, yet it felt like a world apart. Once one reached the Dou Venerate realm, one star truly represented a different world.

"I'll kill you!" She Qingqing's face contorted with rage. She wielded her Serpent Cane, stirring up the wind and clouds, and roared at Ye Qianqian. Such immense power made it impossible for Ye Qianqian to resist.

However, just then, a thumb-sized sapling suddenly appeared on the ground. The sapling absorbed the essence of heaven and earth and grew rapidly, instantly transforming into a towering ancient tree that blocked all of She Qingqing's Dou techniques.

"Who dares to harm my junior sister?"

A majestic female voice boomed from the ancient tree, sending a tremor through everyone's hearts.

Ding

Congratulations to the host, your B-rank bodyguard has successfully arrived.

"You... Who are you?" She Qingqing retreated in fear, startled by the white-clothed woman who descended from the ancient tree. She couldn't discern this woman's strength.

This white-clothed woman had two horns on her head, hair that was four to five meters long, and her eyes were entirely white. There was also a scarlet eye on her forehead, like an unseeable goddess.

"Are you asking for my name?" The white-clothed woman's expression was devoid of emotion. She said coldly, "Then I shall tell you!"
