Zhuo Qingxuan glanced at Li Wei and thought to herself, "If my master catches this guy, it will be troublesome. No matter what, trespassing into the Infinite Starfield is a capital offense. Even if I try to exonerate him, he will probably suffer physical pain. The best way is to escape."

Thinking of this, Zhuo Qingxuan controlled the immortal boat to fly rapidly, but it was difficult to increase the distance between her and the black immortal boat behind her. In just a few breaths, the distance had been reduced to less than a hundred meters.

Zhuo Qingxuan sighed inwardly, knowing that escape was probably impossible today. She glanced at Li Wei, then brought the immortal boat to a stop, whispering, "Hey, my master will be chasing us soon. Don't say anything out of line. I'll handle everything!"

Could Li Wei say no? Of course, he nodded repeatedly. Soon, the huge black immortal ship flew over and landed steadily in mid-air. Then, the light dissipated, revealing the people on the immortal ship.

The leader, dressed in a black and white Daoist robe, had a withered face but an air of otherworldly grace. His two White-Brow drooped to his jaw. His eyes swept over Zhuo Qingxuan, revealing a slight smile. Then, he glared at Li Wei beside him, his eyes like lightning, which startled Li Wei. He thought to himself that this old man was no ordinary person; his combat power was probably already above S5, or even had reached the S6 level.

There were two other people nearby, one of whom was none other than 'Qing Shu' whom he had met once before. At this moment, the young man was staring at Li Wei with hatred on his face and his eyes were full of mockery.

"Qingxuan, are you alright?" The old man standing at the front first raised his hand, creating a light barrier to separate Zhuo Qingxuan and Li Wei, and then asked with concern.

Looking at Zhuo Qingxuan again, she said with a solemn expression, "Disciple greets Master!"

She paused for a moment, then asked, "I didn't know Master had arrived. Does he have something important to discuss with me?"

Upon hearing this, the old Daoist priest was taken aback. He subconsciously turned to look at Qing Shu behind him, his eyes full of questions. He thought to himself, something's not right. According to Qing Shu, Qing Xuan was clearly captured by that thief, so why is she now completely unharmed? She doesn't seem to have been controlled at all, and there's absolutely no connection between her and being kidnapped. At least he saw it clearly just now; the immortal boat was piloted by Qing Xuan herself. If she had been kidnapped, she wouldn't be like this.

Seeing things were about to go wrong, Qing Shu quickly stepped forward, pointed at Li Wei's nose, and cursed, "You scoundrel! You trespassed into the Infinite Starfield without permission. Your intentions are treacherous. You might be here to bewitch my junior sister Qing Xuan. Or even more likely, you're a spy sent by an enemy starfield. I'll take you down first!"

Having said that, he actually used his magic to rush forward.

Upon hearing this, the old Daoist priest was startled, but nodded repeatedly. Regardless of who the person beside Qingxuan was, it was a fact that he had entered the Infinite Starfield without permission. Moreover, Qingxuan was his disciple and had never shown any affection for any man. The old Daoist priest was also grooming Qingxuan as his successor. At this time, Qingxuan absolutely could not get involved in romantic relationships.

Therefore, regardless of how that person came to be or who he is, he must be kept away from Qingxuan.

Seeing Qing Shu rushing over, Li Wei sneered and swung out the Beast Soul Greatsword. He was not one to be slaughtered at will. Since the other party wanted to cause trouble, he would definitely not stand idly by. At worst, he would use 'Shifting Forms and Changing Positions' to escape in a while.

"Stop!"

A furious shout came from the side, and the fight still didn't happen. However, apart from Li Wei, no one expected that it was Zhuo Qingxuan who stopped Qing Shu.

At this moment, her face was frosty, but she said coldly, "Senior Brother Qing Shu, what are you trying to do?"

"Of course, we should apprehend these thieves who have trespassed into the Infinite Starfield!" Qing Shu's expression was somewhat unnatural. He probably hadn't expected that his goddess would speak up for someone else at this moment.

"Senior brother, you must have misunderstood. He is not a thief who broke in without permission, but a guest I brought!" Zhuo Qingxuan glanced at Li Wei and said with a slightly flushed face. She, Zhuo Qingxuan, was known in the Infinite Starfield for being pure and abstinent and never making friends with people of different surnames. For her to say this this time was already an exception.

"Guest? Junior Sister, what are you talking about? No outsider is allowed to enter the Infinite Starfield without the consent of the Elders. You know this rule. I think this thief must be threatening you, that's why you said that. Now that Uncle is here, with him standing up for you, you can rest assured and don't need to be coerced by this thief..." A cold glint flashed in Qing Shu's eyes as she brought up the old Daoist priest.

"Yes, Qingxuan, you are my disciple. I've watched you grow up since you were a child. Don't I know your character? You never show any interest in men, and besides, you've never had the chance to meet people from other planets, so how could you have any friendships? I think there must be something going on. Don't worry, your master will stand up for you!" The White-Brow old Daoist knew something was wrong when he saw his disciple's expression. Qingxuan was probably in love with that man, which was the last thing he wanted to see. He had already regarded Qingxuan as his successor, so how could he tolerate such a thing happening? He suddenly unleashed a burst of aura that spread within a hundred meters, as if he was about to launch an attack at any moment.

"Master, he... he's not..." Zhuo Qingxuan was a little anxious and wanted to continue explaining, but Qing Shu threw out a copper seal. In just a moment, the copper seal became as big as a small mountain and pressed down on Li Wei with the force of lightning.

Looking at Qing Shu's ferocious expression, he realized that he intended to kill Li Wei before Zhuo Qingxuan could speak.

Zhuo Qingxuan was shocked and tried to make amends, but she found that the light barrier her master had just cast protected her. This light barrier was like a transparent glass, and she could not break through it at all.

Seeing that Li Wei was about to be crushed by the huge bronze seal, Zhuo Qingxuan was helpless. The bronze seal crashed down with a bang, but the next second, something happened that left her dumbfounded.

A loud bang was heard, and Qing Shu's bronze seal stopped.

Many Rift appeared on the front of the bronze seal. Upon closer inspection, it looked as if the air itself had been torn apart. Before anyone could react, several more loud bangs were heard. The bronze seal trembled, and cracks appeared on its surface.

"Not good!"

Qing Shu's expression changed drastically. This bronze seal was no ordinary object; it was his natal magic weapon. In the Infinite Starfield, the cultivation system was the primary method of strengthening one's body, and cultivating various magic weapons was one such system. This method of cultivation was fast-acting; one only needed a decent magic weapon, and then refined it using Daoist techniques, achieving a unity of weapon and life. By leveraging the power of the magic weapon, one could enhance their own combat strength. Qing Shu had chosen this method of cultivation, and in just over a decade, he had refined the ' Bronze Beast Seal change size at will; ordinary enemies could be defeated simply by pressing down with the seal. However, he never dreamed that he would be caught off guard and suffer a setback this time.

He saw that the reincarnator was only at the S2 level, while he himself had already reached S3. He thought that dealing with him should be very easy. However, he did not expect that the other party could actually block his attack and destroy the Bronze Beast Seal.

With the magic weapon damaged, Qing Shu, who was essentially a magical artifact, was naturally affected as well. He felt a tickle in his throat, then spat out a mouthful of blood, swayed, and almost fell to the ground.

Upon seeing this, the old Daoist priest's expression changed. He reached out to support Qing Shu and channeled some true energy into her, which improved Qing Shu's complexion.

"Uncle-Master, this..."

"Stop talking. This kid is a bit strange. Although he's using low-level martial arts, it's not ordinary martial arts; it's an 'Extreme Realm' martial arts skill. Moreover, he must possess divine power, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to break your bronze seal." The old Daoist's expression was solemn, but he took a step forward, then casually struck out with his palm, saying leisurely, "This young friend's combat strength is quite impressive. I wonder if he can withstand this palm strike from this old Daoist?"

Because of Qingxuan, the old Daoist priest, who already regarded Li Wei as a thorn in his side, suddenly felt a surge of killing intent. A halo of light emanated from his palm, and he actually shattered the air with a single palm strike, his palm sinking directly into it. Upon seeing this palm strike, Qing Shu's face lit up with joy, but Zhuo Qingxuan's heart sank.

Looking up at the sky, dark clouds filled the sky, and then a palm print emerged from the clouds, followed by a terrifying pressure descending from above.

Li Wei was extremely displeased at this moment. The people in the Infinite Starfield were all more domineering than the last, attacking with swords without any regard for right or wrong, each move aimed to kill. Li Wei had already exhausted all his strength to break the bronze seal, and now, looking at the huge palm print in the air, Li Wei was even more furious.

"If I don't show my power, you'll think I'm a pushover!" Li Wei said, but he was already prepared to Shifting Forms and Changing Positions.

If you can't win, run away. There's no need to fight to the death like an idiot.

However, running away like this wouldn't be in line with Li Wei's character. After a moment's thought, he gathered all his true energy and struck out with a palm towards the sky.

"Extreme Cloud Piercing Palm!"

Boom! A massive palm print shot up from below, and the two palms, one above the other, slammed together, bursting into a burst of light. However, the lower palm print was clearly not powerful enough, and it was shattered with a single collision.

"The difference is indeed too great!" Li Wei sighed inwardly, preparing to use his Shifting Forms and Changing Positions.

"Hmph, like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, overestimating your own strength!" The old Daoist sneered, and suddenly increased the force of his palm. The giant palm in the air also burst out with a layer of golden light and quickly pressed down.

"You... you run!" Zhuo Qingxuan could only worry helplessly, unable to help at all. She didn't even have a chance to explain to her master before she saw the man being struck by her master's golden palm, bursting out in a dazzling light.

As the light faded, there was no trace of Li Wei left. Qing Shu was overjoyed at the sight, his face flushed with excitement. He respectfully said, "Uncle-Master's skill is profound and unparalleled. He killed that villain with just one Qing Shu strike. I wonder how long I would have to train to reach your level of skill!"
