After so long since the battle at Demon-Rejecting Pass, his Realm had finally advanced again!

Indeed, as a God of War, battle was the fastest way to improve one's Realm.

When Wang Defa was killed, the two Puppets he summoned immediately stopped attacking and stood frozen in place.

Lu Xingchen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and put the two Puppets into his Storage Ring.

He would remove the Soul Imprints later; there were more important matters to deal with now.

The five Disciples of the Yinkui Sect who had come with Wang Defa were stunned.

Just a moment ago, the Vice Sect Master had held the absolute advantage, so how did Lu Dazhuang kill him in the blink of an eye?

This guy was too powerful!

It wasn't until Lu Xingchen put the two Puppets into his Storage Ring that the five Disciples of the Yinkui Sect reacted.

The leader shouted, "Run!"

The five immediately unfurled their Dou Qi Wings and flew off into the distance.

Li Yuechang, of course, wouldn't let this opportunity pass and shouted, "Stop them!"

The five Saints of the Lingyun Sect immediately flew in pursuit and blocked their path.

With their path blocked, the five Disciples of the Yinkui Sect dared not make a move.

Because they knew that once they engaged, they absolutely wouldn't be able to determine a victor in a short time.

And that Lu Dazhuang would arrive very soon.

Lu Xingchen unfurled his Dou Qi Wings and flew in front of the five.

The leading Disciple of the Yinkui Sect mustered his courage and stepped forward, cupping his hands in greeting to Lu Xingchen, saying in a deep voice, "Li Chen, Saint of the Yinkui Sect, greets Peak Master Lu."

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "Li Chen, is it? You're quite spirited, daring to speak up at a time like this."

Li Chen's face turned pale, and he said in a deep voice, "Peak Master Lu killed Wang Defa to avenge Li Yuan. We all know about this, and the Yinkui Sect will have no objections. But we Disciples are innocent; we have no grievances with Peak Master Lu. May I ask if Peak Master Lu can spare our lives?"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "But I do have grievances with you. During the last Secret Realm trip, Wang Defa violated the rules by attacking Li Yuechang, the Saint of Lingyuan Peak, which led to Elder Li Yuan's death."

"What Wang Defa can do, I, Lu Dazhuang, can also do!"

Hearing this, Li Chen frowned, "Does Peak Master Lu not care for any reason? As a Peak Master, to attack us Disciples, does he truly intend to disregard martial ethics?"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "You group of evil cultivators/heretics, what martial ethics are you talking about with me? Chat's over, Li Chen, you can die now!"

With that, Lu Xingchen activated the "Mountain Splitting Seal" and struck out a palm towards Li Chen.

Li Chen was greatly alarmed and hastily brought his hands to his chest, defending with all his might.

However, it was useless.

Lu Xingchen's palm could severely injure Wang Defa, a Five-Star Martial Venerable, let alone deal with these Disciples of the Yinkui Sect who were only in the Martial Ancestor Realm.

With one palm strike, Li Chen directly turned into a cloud of blood mist, leaving no bones behind.

The other four were so frightened that their bodies trembled, and they immediately knelt before Lu Xingchen.

"Peak Master Lu, spare our lives!"

"Peak Master Lu, please let us go! Whatever you want, we can offer it all, including any information about the Yinkui Sect."

"As the leading Disciples of the Yinkui Sect, we know quite a lot. At the very least, you can tie us up and demand a ransom from our Sect Master!"

"Yes, yes! As long as you spare us, we'll do anything!"

Hearing this, Lu Xingchen couldn't help but laugh.

These Disciples of the Yinkui Sect were quite perceptive!

He turned to look at Li Yuechang and chuckled, "Xiao Yue, what do you think? Should we tie them up, or kill them on the spot?"

Li Yuechang said in a deep voice, "Peak Master, if Wang Defa had won this battle, would he have spared us Disciples of the Lingyun Sect?"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "You're quick-witted, kid. So, you can die!"

Four Dou Qi Hand Seals descended, and four clouds of blood mist appeared on the ground.

Lu Xingchen clapped his hands and chuckled, "Alright, Elder Li He's revenge has been exacted. Prepare yourselves and strive to find good things in the Secret Realm!"

"Yes, sir!" the five said in unison.

Li Yuechang immediately knelt before Lu Xingchen, his eyes a little red, and said in a deep voice, "Li Yuan was not only my Peak Master but also my teacher, and he treated me exceptionally well. During the last Secret Realm trip, it was entirely thanks to him risking his life that I was able to escape."

"These past days, I've always wanted to avenge my teacher. I only regretted my insufficient strength, unable to defeat Wang Defa. But I never expected Peak Master Lu to be so decisive, killing Wang Defa upon meeting him."

"I, Li Yuechang, hereby kowtow in gratitude to Peak Master Lu. From now on, I will definitely follow your lead!"

Lu Xingchen waved his hand, and a gentle Dou Qi lifted Li Yuechang up. He chuckled, "Xiao Yue, you don't need to be so formal. Avenging Senior Li Yuan is my duty. However, I do have something I need your help with."

Hearing this, Li Yuechang's face lit up with joy, and he said with a smile, "What important matter does Peak Master Lu have? As long as it's within my capabilities, this Junior will definitely accomplish it!"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "It's about a Personal Disciple I've taken in, named Mu Ruxue. I also need to Cultivate myself, so I don't have much time to guide her. If she encounters any problems in her Cultivation, I hope you can help guide her."

"If anyone bullies her, I also hope you can step in to help."

Hearing this, Li Yuechang was slightly stunned.

"Mu Ruxue? I've heard of her! She's the new Disciple who supposedly has only Mortal Realm Soul Power and entered Lingyuan Peak through the back door. Peak Master Lu, with your high standards, you actually agreed to take her as a Personal Disciple!"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "I have my reasons for doing so. You just need to promise to take good care of her for me."

Li Yuechang nodded heavily and said with a smile, "From now on, I will treat Mu Ruxue like my own younger sister. Whatever she requests, I will do my best to fulfill."

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "That reassures me. Alright, you all rest! The experts from the other two Sects should be arriving soon."

No sooner had Lu Xingchen finished speaking than the sound of rushing wind echoed from afar.

The experts from the Liang Yi Sect and Chiyan Sect arrived, bringing their Disciples with them, treading on the wind.

Seeing the five pools of blood mist and Wang Defa's corpse on the ground, an Elder from the Liang Yi Sect exclaimed in surprise, "What happened here?"
