However, no matter how strong he was, restraining two or three Grandmasters was about his limit.

Down below, Zhou Ying immediately became anxious.

At that moment, a streak of sword light cut across.

Boom!

The overwhelming sword light instantly killed a Grandmaster Martial Artist.

The Great Grandmaster of the Heavenly Wardrobe Guard, who was battling with Su Lingxiu, suddenly changed his expression, speaking sternly, “Heavenly Wardrobe Guard of the Great Yue Kingdom, do you intend to interfere in our Great Yue Kingdom’s affairs?”

The Great Yue Kingdom is the strongest of the three kingdoms in the inner domain. Hardly any forces in the entire inner domain dare to challenge the might of the Great Yue Kingdom.

However, a cold voice came: “So what if it’s the Heavenly Wardrobe Guard? What can the Great Yue Emperor do about it?”

The Heavenly Wardrobe Guard Great Grandmaster’s face changed, hastily retreating, disengaging from the fight, and looking over with a gloomy face.

“Who are you to dare interfere with the matters of my Great Yue Kingdom?” “Sword Honor Cliff, Hu Shan!”

Hu Shan gave a cold smile.

Behind him, Hu Hai gave the Heavenly Wardrobe Guard’s Great Grandmaster a single glance, and the latter suddenly felt a creeping terror!

A peak Great Grandmaster from Sword Honor Cliff!

“Chang Qing Pavilion is under my Great Yue Kingdom’s jurisdiction, the hand of Sword Honor Cliff…”

Before he could finish his sentence, a streak of sword light killed him instantly.

Hu Hai sneered, “Sword Honor Cliff’s actions, does a running dog like you have the qualification to comment about”

Meng Shushu swallowed, this was the power and dominance of Sword Honor Cliff.

“Miss Su, should we kill all of them?”

Hu Shan looked at the remaining Heavenly Wardrobe Guards.

Before Su Lingxiu could answer, Hu Shan saw that the dead body of the Heavenly Wardrobe Guard’s Great Grandmaster and the remaining Grandmaster Martial Artists, had turned to ashes in an instant.

Thud!

Had their elder stepped in?

Hu Hai was covered in cold sweat, there was a great terror in this Chang Qing Pavilion.

For an instant, he seemed to sense the real power of the heavens!

Su Lingxiu knew that her teacher had moved, she sighed in relief and asked Hu Shan: “Why are you here?”

Hu Shan grinned and said: “I came to buy elixirs. Young Master Xu had it arranged, I am here on behalf of Sword Honor Cliff.”

He then introduced: “This is my father, Hu Hai!”

Sword Honor Cliff, Great Grandmaster Hu Hai!

“Greetings to Great Grandmaster Hu Hai,”

“Miss Su is being too polite!”

Hu Hai hastily replied with a salute.

Since Hu Shan came this time on behalf of Sword Honor Cliff to buy elixirs, Su Lingxiu readily agreed.

They sold all their in-stock elixirs to Sword Honor Cliff.

Hu Shan and his father didn’t linger too long, but they did reveal that Sword Honor Cliff would handle some of the troubles for Chang Qing Pavilion, but ultimately they couldn’t stop them all.

There were too many forces in the inner domain.

And this time, they killed the Heavenly Wardrobe Guard, the royal family of the Great Yue Kingdom would undoubtedly not let this matter rest. Iron Mountain county was ultimately the territory of the Great Yue Kingdom, and it was fair for them to intervene.

Even if Sword Honor Cliff fought with the Great Yue Kingdom, Xie Lingfeng was not in a position to make the decision.

As for Xie Tianheng, the Sword Lord, he was still in seclusion and thus could only resist some of the threats from the Great Yue Kingdom and could not completely block them.

Su Lingxiu wasn’t surprised by this, Xie Lingfeng’s support was already enough.

As Chang Qing Pavilion was in a turbulent situation, it was time for Xu Yan and Meng Chong to return and take charge. They couldn’t always rely on her teacher, could they?

Hu Shan and his father left.

Kou Ruozhi angrily said: “We must rebel and overthrow the old emperor of Great Yue Kingdom!”

Su Lingxiu glanced at him and said: “Is our Chang Qing Pavilion suited for rebellion?”

Kou Ruozhi was startled, and then fell into deep thought, “I’ll go back to Dahua once, to discuss with Emperor Qi and the Emperor of Wu. These two emperors should know how to rebel, right?

“In the future, there will be no Great Yue Kingdom, only our Dahua!”

He was adept at rebellion, but with his weak strength, any adeptness in rebellion would be futile.

Su Lingxiu didn’t bother with him. She didn’t care about these matters.

Back in the courtyard, she massaged her teacher’s shoulders and apologized: “Teacher, I have caused trouble for you.”

“It’s no big deal,”

Li Xuan sipped his spiritual tea and said,

With a mere thought, he manipulated nature’s spiritual energy, transforming it into a powerful offensive attack, crushing the Grandmaster Martial Artist in but an instance, effortlessly.

“Master, that was superb.”

Su Lingxiu was beside herself with glee.

Li Xuan patted her hand and said, “I’m afraid your troubles are about to begin.”

Su Lingxiu was taken aback.

She had just revealed her ability, alerting the black-robed men to her presence. It wouldn’t be long before they found her in the county.

The Chang Qing Pavilion was her creation.

“How could I be troubled with Master by my side?”

Su Lingxiu replied with a cheeky smile.

Xu Yan finally managed to persuade several martial arts scholars to join the Chang Qing Pavilion as guests, while also delving into martial arts. In exchange, he reached a simple agreement with the Seven-star Study Palace.

He would hold the honorary title of Martial Arts Scholar at the Seven-star Study Palace, but would not be subject to any of its rules; it was a mere title.

Xu Yan felt cheated: his increasing strength would boost the reputation of the Seven-star Study Palace, which he was unwilling to do.

Bai Yun Kong was speechless. Even the promise of his scholars defected wasn’t enough to sweeten the deal for Xu Yan?

Eventually, the Seven-star Study Palace agreed to pay Xu Yan an annual reservation fee of three hundred thousand spirit crystals, and the agreement was formally reached.

The martial arts scholars could leave with Xu Yan, but the rules of the Seven-star Study Palace would not change. They would not intervene in the disputes of the martial arts world or assist Xu Yan against other forces.

Unless, of course, Xu Yan truly became a member of the Seven-star Study Palace.

Being a member of the Seven-star Study Palace meant adhering to their principles.

While the Seven-star Study Palace would not step in, the scholars who left with Xu Yan had their own responsibilities to bear, and their actions to protect those responsibilities would not violate the principles of the Seven-star Study Palace.

Xu Yan made no protest.

He never intended to rely on the Seven-star Study Palace for support; he was just there to recruit some martial arts scholars.

These single-minded men, so devoted to their beliefs, would certainly go to great lengths to uphold them. Once they came to the Chang Qing Pavilion and experienced true martial arts and elixirs, they would undoubtedly become infatuated and reluctant to leave.

Xu Yan reasoned that the martial arts scholars with the darkest circles under their eyes were the most dedicated. They had committed themselves to the study of martial arts from a young age, forsaking sleep and thus gaining dark circles under their eyes.

These circles persisted even as they ascended to the positions of Grandmaster, and Great Grandmaster.

“The Great Supervisory Teacher Fu once mentioned that the Seven-star Study Palace held information that I would find interesting. Could it be what I suspect?”

Xu Yan asked, turning his gaze to Bai Yun Kong.

If his assumptions were correct, the information Fu Yuntian referred to was likely about the black-robed men.

“The black-robed men hail from the Yinlou Pavilion, one of the three major secret forces in the Inner Domain, with no fewer than ten Great Grandmasters at its peak,” Bai Yun Kong said solemnly.

“Peak Great Grandmaster might be a rare sight in the world of martial arts, but the vast Inner Domain, rich in resources and home to numerous powers, holds a not insignificant number of them.”

“The Palace Master of Yinlou Pavilion is mysterious and powerful, causing even Peak Great Grandmasters to shudder. Even I am not confident of my chances of victory against him.”

The Inner Domain is expansive, with a plethora of powers. The top forces are home to dozens of Peak Great Grandmasters, thanks to their abundant cultivation resources, powerful techniques, and centuries of heritage.

Even if it took decades to create a Peak Great Grandmaster, over time, their numbers added up.

Most, reaching this realm, resided at the pinnacle of the Inner Domain. Having few matters to attend to, they devoted their days to perfecting their skills and pursuing the path beyond Great Grandmaster.

Xu Yan was not surprised by this. It was only to be expected that the prosperous Inner Domain martial arts would amass numerous Peak Great Grandmasters. What did surprise him was the extraordinary power peddled by the black-robed men of Yinlou Pavilion.

The strength of the Yinlou Pavilion’s Palace Master was unprecedented?

Even Bai Yun Kong, the Palace Master of the Seven-star Study Palace, the most powerful Inner Domain warrior he had encountered thus far, had no confidence in winning against him.

He even sensed that Bai Yun Kong was perhaps more powerful than he initially estimated.

“Where is the Yinlou Pavilion located?”

Xu Yan asked solemnly.

Although the Palace Master of Yinlou Pavilion was strong, the current Xu Yan might not be able to win. However, after breaking into the Tongxuan Realm, he could kill him.

At that point, he could directly take out the enemy’s lair.

Wouldn’t he make a real fortune then?

“I don’t know.”

Bai Yun Kong shook his head: “As for the three major secret forces, not even the Seven-star Study Palace, let alone Tianbao Pavilion, knows where they are.”

Yinlou Pavilion had always been elusive. Even if they met face to face, without the black robes as a marker, nobody would know they were from Yinlou Pavilion..
