Sword Primordial Qi

Yang Yue'ao was just about to say that he planned to move his entire clan eastward and submit to the Tang Household.

But then I thought about it again, and that didn't seem right.

In the Western Rong, he was at least a tribal king, but after coming to the Tang Household, he became Tang Household subordinate.

Furthermore, city dwellers prioritize their own interests.

Moving my Gaoxin Clan to the Tang Household's territory would certainly not bring as much benefit to the Tang Household as staying in the Western Rong as spies or agents.

"King Tiansong, I have only recently assumed the position of leader, and it is not appropriate for the entire tribe to migrate eastward now."

"I am willing to be a loyal and agile hunting dog for the Tang Household, keeping a close eye on Gu Husha's every move." Yang Yue'ao said with a sincere expression.

Tang Tiansong smiled and said, "Alright, from now on you can use the information you get to exchange for money and food."

Don't worry, my Tang Household owns coal mines, copper mines, and millions of acres of fertile land, which is more than enough to support your three thousand clansmen. However, the information you provide must be of some value.

Furthermore, if you can kill Gu Husha, my Tang Household will certainly support you as the King of the Western Rong."

"Don't worry, King Tiansong,"

I'll definitely come up with a dozen ways to Gu Husha every day.

"Just wait for my good news." Yang Yue'ao happily accepted Tang Tiansong's promise...

After the money, food, and other supplies for Yang Yue'ao were properly arranged, and an agreement was made with Yang Yue'ao on the approximate time and place for providing information each month, Tang Tiansong and Tang Tiandong walked side by side, chatting as they did in their childhood, towards the back mountain of Dangwu Village.

Of course, now only the Tang Household can enter the entire back mountain.

Although the entire Dangwu Yuan had already been protected by the [Eight Trigrams Marsh Mist Formation], a protective formation at the Meridian Opening level, set up by Tang Tianzi.

However, the formation requires Spiritual Qi to operate, and the Tang Household doesn't have enough Spirit Stone to support it, so they can only activate the [Eight Trigrams Marsh Mist Formation] every few days.

Looking at the cloudless sky, Tang Tiansong breathed a sigh of relief. "The weather's nice today. How about we, brothers, have a little Swordsmanship sparring later?"

"Brother, I'm only at the Meridian Opening Fourth Layer Refining Realm, while you're at the Meridian Opening Eighth Layer. How can I possibly beat you?" Tang Tiandong pouted.

Tang Tiansong smiled and said, "We're just comparing Swordsmanship, not fighting over true energy."

Tianya has only practiced Swordsmanship for a few months, yet he dares to challenge me to a sword duel.

Speaking of which, Tianya does indeed have a talent for Swordsmanship.

It's a pity we're short on Spirit Stone right now, otherwise all we'd have at home is this ungraded [Purple Pine Swordsmanship]."

"Hmph, if that great demon in Three Graves Mountain dies, we can go to Three Graves Mountain to kill Demon Beast and exchange them for Spirit Stone." Tang Tiandong sighed softly.

Unbeknownst to them, the two brothers had already arrived at the entrance of the Carefree Cave.

Watching his fifth brother, Tang Tianya, diligently practicing his swordsmanship, Tang Tiansong nodded in satisfaction.

Just as I was about to praise the fifth brother, I suddenly felt an inexplicable murderous Sha Qi. I looked up and broke out in a cold sweat: in the sky, a black Sha Qi that blotted out the sun was rolling in from the east.

"Not good!

Could it be the great demon from Three Graves Mountain that the white lynx spoke of?

Tang Tiandong also looked towards the eastern horizon in horror...

"Tianya, quickly go to the Carefree Cave for temporary refuge." Tang Tiansong frowned, pondering for a moment. "Tiandong, do not use Spiritual Qi, quickly go home and invite Mystic Spoon Immortal Venerable."

Eleven-year-old Tang Tianya angrily swung his sword at the black, Sha Qi in the sky.

However, the sword strike Tang Tianya unleashed seemed to carry an inexplicable aura...

Before Tang Tiandong could run down the mountain to his home, the black, Sha Qi in the sky suddenly turned and headed straight for the three Tang Household brothers.

"Brother, there's no time to call Mystic Spoon." Tang Tiandong's face was pale as he drew his Azure Edge.

Tang Tianzi and Cui Xueyong are currently at the coal mine, while Tang Tianlan, wielding the Seven Stars Sword, is hundreds of miles away in Western Rong Mountain.

According to the white lynx, the great demon of Three Graves Mountain was at the Qi Refinement Great Perfection.

The [Qi Refinement] Realm is divided into ten minor realms, from one to ten.

The cultivation stages between the [Qi Refinement Tenth Layer] and [Foundation Establishment] realms are called the [Qi Refinement Great Perfection] realm.

The three Tang Tiansong brothers were utterly powerless against this great demon.

"Tiandong, put your sword away."

"If the great demon wants to kill us, we have no power to fight back." Tang Tiansong gripped his sword tightly, nervously watching the black Sha Qi that had just landed, pondering a countermeasure.

As the black Sha Qi gradually dissipated, a dark figure appeared in the sight of the three Tang Household brothers.

The three Tang Household brothers were immediately puzzled: a female cultivator dressed in a black Daoist robe had appeared before them.

More precisely, she was a young female monk of about eleven or twelve years old, with the makings of a beautiful girl and a cold, aloof expression.

Could it be that the great demon of the Three Graves Mountain, who has reached the Qi Refinement Great Perfection of Qi Refining, has already broken through to the Foundation Establishment and can transform into human form?

According to the white lynx, the great demon was a Crimson Blood Wolf that had lived for over four hundred years and usually referred to himself as Lord Lang.

This is clearly a male wolf, how could it transform into a young female cultivator?

"Which of you three swung your sword at me just now?" Before Tang Tiansong could speak, the young female cultivator asked coldly.

"Senior, if I may ask, are you Lord Lang from Three Graves Mountain?" Tang Tiansong bowed respectfully.

"Lord Lang?

Oh, you've mistaken me for that Demon Beast.

Hmph, I'm not a demon, I'm human.

"Your whole family are the demons." The young female cultivator curled her lip.

Tang Tiansong's lips twitched: She was indeed a person, and a sharp-tongued young woman at that.

"Brother, look at the sleeve of this young female cultivator. There's an embroidered pattern of a burning candle," Tang Tiandong whispered to Tang Tiansong.

He wore a dark black Daoist robe, with an embroidered pattern of a pale yellow candle about two inches long and a red flame about one inch long on the left cuff.

Another female cultivator, and her cultivation level is above mine.

Could it be...?

Tang Tiansong cupped his hands in greeting and asked, "May I ask, fellow Daoist, are you a disciple of the Dark Candle Courtyard Azure Palace?"

"So what if it is?" The female cultivator's expression remained icy.

Tang Tiansong forced a smile. "My name is Tang Tiansong, and I am the elder brother of these two."

At the same time, I was elected as the clan leader by some villages on the northern slope of Gazing Dragon Lake.

"Gazing Dragon Lake an area of several thousand miles and is under the jurisdiction of the Azure Origin Sect. May I ask what brings you to Dangwu Village, fellow Daoist?"

The Azure Origin Sect and the Azure Palace are not only prestigious sects, but also major cultivation sects in the Central Lands Plains. Furthermore, the two sects are closely connected, sharing the same lineage, and are allies.

Although none of the Tang Household members are currently disciples of the Azure Origin Sect, the entire Gazing Dragon Lake is ostensibly under the Azure Origin Sect's jurisdiction. Logically speaking, the disciples of the Azure Palace, who are closely connected with the Azure Origin Sect, shouldn't kill people indiscriminately.

Thinking of this, Tang Tiansong and Tang Tiandong both secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's it to you what I'm doing here?"

"Speak quickly, you three, who was it that swung their sword at me just now?!" the female cultivator shouted angrily.

"It was I who swung my sword at you," Tang Tianya said calmly.

"You?"

Heh, you're only at the Meridian Opening Second Layer Refining stage, and the Azure Edge in your hand is just another piece of junk from a street stall.

How could one possibly unleash Sword Primordial Qi?!

"Don't try to fool me!" The nun's almond-shaped eyes widened.

"Believe it or not, it's up to you!" Tang Tianya scoffed.

"Fine, fine, brat! Just because you dared to unleash your Sword Primordial Qi at me, and just because you dared to talk nonsense to me, you deserve to die!"

"Even if I kill you, my master won't blame me!" A cold glint flashed in the young female cultivator's eyes as she swung her sword at Tang Tianya.

"Fifth Brother, watch out!" Tang Tiansong and Tang Tiandong immediately rushed over.

He cast Golden Light Shield, though he knew it would most likely not be able to stop the female cultivator's attack.

Tang Tiandong remained resolute, sword in hand, standing in front of Tang Tianya...
