Nie Lanxin was a clever woman. She probably would not reveal my identity. Now, Yuansheng Peak Master was the only threat left. He had memorized my Martial Dao Imprint; if I returned to the military camp now, my identity would definitely be exposed.

"Roar!"
A gigantic Sixth Grade Mystic Beast flew in from the horizon. Two Martial Venerables rode on its back as it landed before Ning Xiaochuan.

The Essence Qi chains binding him shattered, turning into wisps of green smoke that vanished
