"Nonsense!" Guangchengzi was the first to react, shouting angrily, "Yun Xiao! You can eat anything, but you can't say anything! When did we collude with the Western Teachings? And how could Daoist Randeng do such a despicable thing? Stop your slander!"
Even though he secretly wished Zhao Gongming dead, the Heavenly Origin Sect absolutely could not take the blame for this.
"Slander?" Bi Xiao laughed in fury, "The evidence is conclusive, and you still want to quibble?"
She raised high a Treasure Dropping Golden Coin, which she had picked up from the scene and belonged to Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao.
"Do you recognize this item?"
Guangchengzi and the others stared, their expressions changing.
"Treasure Dropping Golden Coin? The magical artifact of Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao from Mount Wuyi?"
"That's right!" Bi Xiao said hatefully, "Where my elder brother met his end, there was the aura of Saint Zhunti, as well as the aura of the old thief Randeng's Qiankun Ruler! We also found the corpses of Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao there! Those two were killed by the old thief Randeng with a single blow from his Heaven Measuring Ruler!"
"With witnesses and evidence, what else do you have to say!"
At this, the immortals of the Heavenly Origin Sect were completely silenced.
They looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
Daoist Randeng... really killed Zhao Gongming? And stole his magical artifact?
This information was too much of a shock to them!
Although they looked down on Randeng's character, they never expected him to do something so insane, despicable, and shameless!
If this got out, would the Heavenly Origin Sect still have any face left?
"This... there must be some misunderstanding!" Jiang Ziya quickly argued, "We know Daoist Randeng's character, he would never..."
He couldn't finish his sentence, even he himself didn't believe it.
Did they really know Randeng's character?
It seemed... he really might do it.
"Misunderstanding?" Yun Xiao coldly interrupted him, "I'll only ask you one thing: are you handing the person over, or not?"
Her patience was running out.
"We... where would we go to hand over the person to you?" Guangchengzi was also furious, "Daoist Randeng is not in Xi Qi at all! We don't know where he went!"
"Good! Good, you don't know!"
Qiong Xiao roared, her killing intent soaring.
"I see you won't shed tears until you see the coffin! Since you refuse to hand over the person, today, I will first tear down your Xi Qi city, kill you dogs of the Heavenly Origin Sect, and collect some interest for my elder brother!"
Before her voice fell, she had already unleashed a magical artifact.
It was a pair of golden scissors, which transformed into two flood dragons in the air, coiling around each other, carrying an aura of unstoppable sharpness capable of cutting through all things, and they scissor-ed fiercely towards the city walls of Xi Qi!
It was her Dao-proving spiritual treasure—the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors!
"Not good!"
"Retreat quickly!"
Guangchengzi and the others turned pale with fright. They could feel the terrifying power contained within the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors, which they were absolutely not in a state to resist!
Jiang Ziya was even more terrified, his soul scattered. He was merely a mortal cultivating immortality, and had never seen such a scene.
Just as the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors were about to sever the city walls and capture all the immortals of the Heavenly Origin Sect, at the critical moment.
"Buzz—"
Above Xi Qi city, a thick, apricot-yellow light screen suddenly appeared.
On the light screen, ten thousand golden lotuses bloomed, protecting the entire Xi Qi city.
"Clang!!!"
The Golden Flood Dragon Scissors fiercely cut into the apricot-yellow light screen, emitting a deafening sound of metal striking metal.
The light screen shook violently. Hundreds of golden lotuses withered, but in the end, it managed to block the unstoppable attack.
On the city wall, True Man Yuding held a small banner in his hand.
The banner was apricot-yellow, emitting an infinite, mysterious aura.
It was the protective supreme treasure bestowed by Venerable Yuanshi, one of the five innate banners with the strongest defense under the Myriad Heavens Auspicious Cloud—the Central Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner!
"Heavenly Origin Sect! You truly are birds of a feather!"
Her attack unsuccessful, Qiong Xiao became even more enraged. She retracted the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors and was about to attack again.
"Sister, stop."
Yun Xiao stopped her.
She looked at the apricot-yellow banner, then at the pale-faced but still pretending-to-be-calm Golden Immortals of the Heavenly Origin Sect on the city wall. The killing intent in her eyes gradually subsided, replaced by a chilling calmness.
"Good, very good."
"Since you want to hide in this turtle shell and not come out, fine."
"Since you want to shield the murderer Randeng, that's also fine."
"I'd like to see how long you can hide."
Yun Xiao slowly raised the Primordial Golden Dou in her hand and said coldly to the Heavenly Origin Sect immortals on the city wall.
"We three sisters will set up a great formation outside this Xiqi City."
"If you have the guts, come out and break the formation."
"If you can't break it, then every single one of your Heavenly Origin Sect disciples, I will use your Three Flowers Crown and Five Breaths Chest to sacrifice to my elder brother's spirit in heaven!"
With that, she didn't look again, and taking Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao with her, she turned and flew towards a nearby mountain peak.
A greater storm was brewing.
