Yao Zhi sighed softly.
Yao Cang wasn't having an easy time either.
Even if they don't empathize with humans, they all want to immediately storm the Peak of Heaven and annihilate the Emperor Phoenix Clan, because their fellow Demon-Burying Demon in the Fifth Universe are suffering in dire straits!
Xie Feng continued, " Peak of Heaven is ostensibly the Stability Maintainers of the Fifth Universe, but in reality, it's a malignant tumor in the Fifth Universe! And it's deeply ingrained! As long as they exist, most people in the Fifth Universe will forever be controlled and enslaved by them! Second Clan Chief, I heard you're a neutral party? Seeing all this suffering, do you still think neutrality is the right thing to do? Quite the opposite! Your neutrality is a disaster for the Demon-Burying Clan and for everyone harmed by Peak of Heaven! You're just aiding and abetting them!"
Yao Zhi remained silent, lost in thought.
However, her expression was noticeably more relaxed than before.
Xie Feng glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, and seeing this, he smiled to himself, thinking to himself that things were looking promising!
If he could just make himself sound a little more pitiful, he might be able to change Yao Zhi's mind and win her over to his side!
"It seems I made the right decision to come. If you had shown me these things sooner, I might have had some new ideas."
Yao Zhi raised her eyes and looked at the people around her who were forced to work. She looked up again and saw the dark sky.
Is the sky always gray here?
"Before it was enslaved by Peak of Heaven, it was colorful!"
"I see..."
Yao Zhi nodded, her expression clearly changing.
She didn't want to watch any longer, so she said goodbye to Xie Feng.
Xie Feng knew that once she returned, the tripartite balance of power would likely change!
"This trick works so well?" Yao Cang's eyes lit up. "Teacher, one of these days you can bring Dao Wuxin over again and have him repent and change his stance, haha!"
"You're too clever for your own good!"
Xie Feng criticized mercilessly, " Dao Wuxin and your mother are not the same. Dao Wuxin's mindset cannot be changed; it can only be eliminated!"
Yao Cang lowered his head, seemingly understanding but not quite.
"All right!"
Two more days passed.
On a snowy night, Chen An and Steward Song were walking on a dark path.
Tomorrow is the annual day for worshipping the God of Wealth, and as usual, we should take a day off.
They closed right at midnight, not too early, not too late.
The moonlight was hazy, illuminating the two people. They were wearing raincoats and walking quietly in the snow. All was quiet except for the soft rustling sound of their feet against the snow.
"Master, you usually stay at the money exchange, why are you coming back to the manor today?"
"If we don't go back soon, my villa will get moldy! Let's go back and check on it!"
"It's too cold, let's hurry!"
" Steward Song, I'd like to eat roasted sweet potatoes. Keep an eye out for them on the way."
"Who would buy roasted sweet potatoes in the middle of the night...?"
"All right."
Unable to eat the roasted sweet potatoes he had been craving, Chen An shrugged dejectedly. He casually looked up, then suddenly stopped in his tracks!
Steward Song also stopped!
A wall of people had appeared in front of them without them noticing.
Ten people were blocking the narrow path, and the swirling snow fell on them. The moonlight reflected off their gleaming eyes!
Fierce yet silent, like a wolf!
The arrival of these people intensified the snowstorm!
Neither side spoke!
After a long pause, a man opposite spoke in a cold voice, " Ziyun Bank, Chen An?"
Chen An's eyes flickered, and he composed himself. "I am Chen An. Who are you?"
" Shadow Blade!"
The voice was booming, deafening.
Upon hearing this name, Chen An's heart skipped a beat.
Shadow Blade!
The Blood Shadow Army's Vice Commander!
The Blood Shadow Army is a legion under the command of Peak of Heaven, known for its slaughter. It has only two hundred members, yet it is invincible and has swept across the Fifth Universe!
It can be said that the Blood Shadow Army is a weapon of Peak of Heaven, capable of striking wherever it is pointed.
Like a blood-red Meiying, it wanders through the Fifth Universe.
Anyone they targeted never survived...
"Now, have you come looking for me...?"
Chen An took a light breath.
He knew perfectly well why these two seemingly unrelated parties had unexpectedly met on this dark alleyway today!
Because of one person!
Ziyun Bank funded that person to create a sect.
This person, along with his sect, poses a tremendous threat to Peak of Heaven.
In Peak of Heaven rage, Tenzin was about to vent his anger on everyone connected to this person.
This person's name is Xie Feng.
After hearing that Xie Feng had led his army to wipe out the forces affiliated with Peak of Heaven, Chen An had prepared himself for retaliation.
He just hadn't expected it to happen so quickly.
" The Blood Shadow Army Blood Shadow Army up to its name; their speed is truly astounding..."
Chen An grinned and smiled slightly.
Steward Song was completely unaware of all this. He frowned and said, "We have no grudge against you, so why are you blocking our way?"
Shadow Blade raised his eyelids, stared at Steward Song, and suddenly his palm moved, a flash of light appeared, and the next second, Steward Song fell to the ground with a thud!
He was killed when his throat was slashed by a blade!
Chen An's eyes widened, and he rushed forward to try to save Steward Song, but was blocked by Shadow Blade's sword!
Shadow Blade said coldly, "If you move again, you will die!"
Chen An's expression changed. He raised his hands, slowly backed away, and said calmly and cautiously, "Don't kill me, I'm afraid of dying!"
"You're afraid of death? Haha!" Shadow Blade seemed to have discovered a new continent, "The owner of the number one bank in the Fifth Universe is actually afraid of death."
Chen An stared at him and said in a deep voice, "I have money, lots and lots of money. Use my money to buy my life, how about it?!"
Shadow Blade asked, "How much is your life worth?"
Chen An said, "My life is worthless..."
Shadow Blade sneered, "Then I'll have even less of a burden when I kill you!"
With that, he raised the divine sword in his hand!
The blades flashed fiercely!
Shadow Blade is at the initial stage of the Divine Realm, while Chen An is at the peak of the Divine King Realm. The two are simply incomparable in terms of cultivation.
Chen An quickly picked up a communication talisman. "I need to call for backup. Do you dare fight him?"
Fortunately, he had a communication talisman at the crucial moment.
You can contact Xie Feng!
Shadow Blade ignored his nonsense and swept his blade across the room.
The aura of the blade shook the heavens and earth!
Chen An's pupils contracted, and he instinctively tried to hide, but he was locked onto by the rapidly flying blade energy in front of him, leaving him nowhere to hide!
The blade of energy flew over at lightning speed, aiming to slash at Chen An's neck!
Click!
Sparks flew!
Chen An's eyes were dazzled by the sparks.
He touched his neck, finding it completely unharmed, and exclaimed in shock, "When did I develop a copper head and iron bones? My neck isn't even broken after being slashed?!"
"Idiot, it wasn't you who was being cut."
Ahead of Chen An, a man turned around and said disdainfully.
It was Xie Feng!
He stretched out his arm, blocking Chen An's path.
The Shadow Blade's strike landed squarely on his arm.
Because he had focused on cultivating his physical strength, his body was incredibly powerful. So even if he was cut by an unusual blade, he wouldn't suffer any serious injuries; at most, he would feel a slight tingling sensation.
In Chen An's eyes, Xie Feng's image grew increasingly lofty...
"Thanks, Boss!"
