But just as Gui Shaoyin was about to enter the Alchemy Pavilion, two streaks of sword light shot out from within and forced him back.
Two white-robed elders rushed out after them and blocked his path.
"Who are you? How did you slip into Withering and Flourishing Alchemy Valley without a sound?"
One of the white-robed elders spoke coldly.

Then he stepped forward and instantly appeared before one of the elders.
"So fast!"
The elder's expression changed, and he hastily raised his sword to block.
Bang!
Gui Shaoyin brought
