Meanwhile, in the Heaven-Gazing Secret Realm...
Dressed in white, ethereal as a fairy, she transformed into a streak of silver-white light, riding a sword that seemed to possess a spirit, and sped rapidly into the distance.
The woman on the spirit sword had blood on her pale lips and an unnatural flush on her face, clearly indicating that she had temporarily used a drug that could restore her condition in a short time. She forcibly suppressed the metallic taste in her chest and flew away into the distance.
As she fled, she kept glancing back, her eyes filled with anxiety.
Clearly, she was being hunted.
This person was none other than Luo Qingxue, the Holy Maiden of the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect.
To be honest, Luo Qingxue's time as the Holy Maiden of the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect wasn't always smooth sailing.
Initially, she was just an ordinary outer disciple of the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect, cultivating diligently for many years without making any significant progress.
Fortunately, one day when the Supreme Elder came down the mountain, he took notice of her and took her under his wing as a maidservant and taught her a Secret Method.
That Secret Method was extremely precious to Luo Qingxue.
However, for the Supreme Elder of the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect, this did not constitute a significant fortuitous opportunity.
However, no one expected that this Secret Method would unexpectedly activate Luo Qingxue's bloodline, awaken her talent, and further, successfully awaken her physique.
From then on, it was unstoppable.
Anyone who experienced that time will find it hard to forget that day when divine light soared into the sky above the Supreme Elder Peak and sword winds raged, lasting for three whole days before finally subsiding.
Almost the entire sect was alarmed.
The pervasive Sword Intent even covered the entire sect. Within the sect's grand formation, one could feel the domineering Sword Intent, like a drizzle and a gentle breeze, invading every corner of the sect.
From that day on, the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect finally had its own Holy Maiden.
Her master, the Grand Elder, said that in the entire Heaven-Gazing Domain, no more than three people could surpass her talent.
Although the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect wanted to conceal this physique, the commotion caused when it awakened that day was too great to be completely hidden.
This led to its discovery by the other sects.
And then it spiraled out of control.
Assassination.
Assassination.
To frame or frame someone.
During that period, the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect was already on the decline.
This fulfilled the wishes of many people.
But the sudden appearance of Luo Qingxue has caused many people to worry that the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect might rise again.
The four major sects have remained unchanged.
It's rare for a sect to decline and vacate its position; how could the people of Heaven-Gazing Domain just stand by and watch their chance to rise and share the spoils disappear?
Moreover, he was just a genius who hadn't yet fully matured.
Nip it in the bud; that's the best course of action.
That period was incredibly difficult.
On one occasion, even the Supreme Elder was injured.
Not to mention the Supreme Elder was furious, the Sect Master was also quite angry. He immediately put Luo Qingxue under even closer protection and activated the sect's protective formation, making it seem as if he was about to start a major battle in the domain.
This finally calmed many people down.
But its lingering influence remains.
The sect values Luo Qingxue more.
I was terrified that something might happen to her.
It can be said that the entire Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect regarded Luo Qingxue as their hope.
The Supreme Elder and the Sect Master directed the sect's resources toward her, nurturing her with all their might.
Luo Qingxue did not disappoint them.
She was not an arrogant person; on the contrary, she was grateful and extremely steady and cautious. Knowing that if she died, the entire sect would easily collapse, making all the efforts of her master and sect leader go to waste, she cultivated even harder and more diligently.
Unfortunately...
What does one person's effort amount to in the face of overwhelming circumstances?
The situation at the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect is getting worse and worse.
Her cultivation speed was already fast enough, but she still couldn't catch up.
She shouldn't have come this time.
But the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect Heaven-Gazing Ridge...
She couldn't not come.
If they don't come themselves, the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect will truly have no chance of victory.
Having witnessed firsthand how the Purple Firmament Palace staged a coup, Luo Qingxue couldn't help but feel fortunate that she had come; otherwise, she would have truly been helpless this time.
If a sect is expelled from the ranks of the four major sects, it will only decline further.
Then it's truly all over.
But now...
She coughed softly, spitting out blood from her throat, and a bitter smile appeared on Luo Qingxue's lips.
The worst thing has happened.
Her talent made many powerful forces wary.
Their rapid growth has also alarmed other sects.
Therefore, even though the sect immediately ordered all the Peak Master to search for her whereabouts.
But it was still a bit too late.
His identity was discovered by powerful figures, and he was surrounded and hunted until now. After taking a secret medicine, he managed to break through the enemy's encirclement and escape with the help of several elders and the deputy Peak Master...
Although it was a very embarrassing situation, there was no other way.
only...
only!
Thinking of the elders and deputy Peak Master who died trying to send her away, Luo Qingxue's lips trembled uncontrollably, her eyes reddened, and she struggled to hold back her tears.
She hated it so much!
I hate my own weakness and powerlessness.
I hate my own weakness.
She also hated those sects for being as greedy as hyenas, relentlessly pursuing her and trying to wipe her out completely, thus extinguishing the last hope of the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect.
hateful!
hateful!
Although the elders fought desperately and killed several of them, there were still two Great Saint among those who were chasing her!
Two people!
Luo Qingxue's eyes were filled with hatred that seemed to bleed.
She clenched her fists and couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
That's giving her way too much credit.
The two Great Saint were terrified that she might have even the slightest chance of survival.
This lineup is solely for killing a Middle Stage of the Saint Realm expert like her!
ha!
At this point, Luo Qingxue was basically in despair.
We've tried every possible means...
Law Treasure.
A trump card to save your life.
She even used a secret medicine that would leave her weak and helpless for a period of time after taking it, making her completely vulnerable to being slaughtered.
But it didn't work.
It's useless, useless, useless!
There was no way to shake off the two Great Saint behind him. Even if he could increase the distance, it wouldn't be long before they caught up again.
Now, the time for the secret medicine is almost here.
She was completely exhausted, her life hanging by a thread.
Just as she was thinking this, a sweet taste suddenly rose in her throat.
She spat out a mouthful of blood, and her speed suddenly slowed down. Before she could take the harmful medicine a second time, a terrifying pressure pressed down on her from behind, enveloping her and locking her in place, rendering her completely unable to move for a moment.
Luo Qingxue was shocked and extremely anxious.
Great Saint!
This is absolutely the work of the Great Saint!
Damn it... they caught up so quickly!
Despair spread through her. Luo Qingxue gritted her teeth and turned to look at the rapidly approaching figure.
The beautiful woman who caught up from behind showed no pity for Luo Qingxue, the goddess, in her disheveled and bloodied state. She sneered, her tone filled with only satisfaction.
"The Holy Maiden of the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect is indeed quite talented!"
"If you were given more time, becoming Great Saint wouldn't be a problem."
"Unfortunately, you won't have that chance today!"
