clan chief and deputy chief were both absent. The elders of the clan were also out dealing with those Golden Core cultivators from the Moonlit Realm. After all, the Feiqi tribe was responsible for......Bookmark this URL to continue reading later: "qianqianxsw".

Yin Yimu was startled and, forgetting the golden sword, hurriedly pulled back his knife wheel to block the black light. As the black light dissipated, a ferocious black flying shear emerged - it was the magic weapon Hei Jiao Jian.

“Really despicable!” Yin Yumu obviously didn't expect Lu Xiaoteng to have such a powerful flying scissor artifact. Before in the cave, when fighting with the snakes, Lu Xiaoteng had always used very powerful spells, and he had also used the golden flying sword, a top-grade spiritual weapon. Never thought that Lu Xiaoteng would have another artifact on his body.

After all, the strength of Lingxiao Palace and Xuanbingmen is almost equal. Having one elite disciple in a squad is already considered good. In Lingxiao Palace's two squads, there are already Wu Yan, Su Qing, and Luo Qian, three powerful elite disciples. There's also Zhu Ling's seven-person archer group, whose strength is not inferior to that of elite disciples. Such strength is rare even in Xuanbingmen. From beginning to end, Lu Xiaoxiao only mixed with a few ordinary cultivators, unlike the performance of elite disciples.

It was precisely because of these signs that Yin Yumu was caught off guard. However, his combat experience was also very rich. Even in such an urgent situation, he narrowly dodged the attack of the Black Jiao Scissors. Although the Black Jiao Scissors were blocked, the iron thorn vine seeds and golden flying sword, which he had not taken seriously before, became his true death knell.

Clang, clang, clang! The spinning blade shield relentlessly blocked the fierce attacks of Hei Jiao's shears. Yin Yi, flustered, hurriedly summoned a silver-white short spear, clashing with Lu Xiaoteng's golden flying sword several times in the air.

Given the tight schedule, it's already quite remarkable that Yin Yimu could achieve this much despite his busy schedule. However, the wildly growing iron thorns also pierced through Yin Yimu's protective spiritual shield at the same time.

"Master Meng, save me!" Yin Yi shouted in panic, the iron thorns had already entangled his ankle and were quickly spreading upwards along his calf.

As Meng Yu saw that the situation inside the grotto was already settled, he shifted his attention to Su Qing and Wu Yan, two beautiful young women who were captivating. He held them in his arms, enjoying himself immensely. His reaction was half a beat slower than Yin Yumu's. In a different situation, even he would struggle to cope with Lu Xiaoteng's cunning surprise attack like this.

In the blink of an eye, Yin Yimu had been bound tightly by the Iron Thorn Vine. His skin was covered in wounds, blood flowing freely, and he cried out in agony. With his focus broken, Yin Yimu could no longer maintain control of both the artifact blade wheel and the spirit weapon flying spear as he usually did.

Lu Xia Tian's face was cold, the Black Jiao Scissors’ flames burned even brighter, forcefully knocking apart the blade wheel and with a single snip, severed the flying rope controlling it. The blade wheel lost control and shot into the stone wall.

Meng Yu was, after all, a top expert in the Qi Refining period. Though the change came as a complete surprise, he still threw his magic weapon ice spear, sending the black python shears aimed at Yin Yimu's head flying. However, he had too little time, and in such a brief moment, he could only do so much.

"It's too late!" Lu Xiaodao smiled calmly. He wanted to save the person from under Yin Yimu's grasp, but relying solely on his speed was impossible. With a flick of his finger, he activated his potential, causing the golden flying sword to suddenly shrink and pierce through the gaps between the iron thorns, directly penetrating Yin Yimu's heart before speeding towards Meng Yu's head.

"Damn it!" Only now did Meng Yu realize that Lu Xiaoteng's strength was completely on par with his own, all this time he had been concealing it. This level of cunning was truly terrifying. At this moment, he couldn't care less about Su Qing and Wu Yan, the two lovely women. He directly knocked them to the ground in a hurry, and in the meantime, he conjured a spirit blade, blocking the golden flying sword.

Su Qing and Wu Yan originally thought they had fallen into a desperate situation, both of them were tricked by Meng Yu. Meng Yu and Yin Yimu are both elite disciples. Even if Lu Xiaoteng is capable, it would be difficult to defeat either one of them.

Unexpectedly, the situation took a stunning turn in the blink of an eye. Yin Yumu, the elite disciple of Xuanbingmen, was killed and his weapon destroyed. Although Meng Yu fought fiercely with Lu Xia Tian inside the cave, the ice spikes against the Black Jiao Scissors and the spirit blade against Lu Xia Tian's golden flying sword, he still couldn't gain the upper hand despite pouring all his energy into his weapons. The two men, who had been despairing just moments ago, couldn't help but feel an overwhelming sense of joy at their sudden turn of fate.

“Haha, Senior Brother Lu is truly amazing. Two elite disciples of the Xuanbing Sect can't even stand against Senior Brother Lu alone. We are saved! Brothers, let's slaughter these scum from the Xuanbing Sect! They dared to scheme against us, they are even more despicable than the cultivators of Evillings Valley!”

Zhu Ang and the other casual cultivators hadn't even reacted when Yin Yumu was already dead, what had been a sure death situation was now an opportunity. Not only would they not die, but if they killed these Xuanbingmen people, their gains would be several times greater than they had originally anticipated.

"Meng Yu is with me now, you guys hurry up. Luo Qian might already be ambushed by Meng Yu, as I predicted. On the other side of the grotto, there should still be a few disciples from Xuanbing Gate. Before they arrive, we need to kill the rest, otherwise, the situation will still be unfavorable for us."

Lu Xia Tian shouted in a deep voice, and he also had to admire Zhu Ang's quick wit. The situation changed too quickly. Zhu Ang could react so fast, even if he only saw him hold back Meng Yu, his words exposed Meng Yu as not being his opponent, striking the already fragile morale of the Xuanbingmen disciples. He steadied their spirits that had almost fallen to the bottom.

Zhu Ang's performance was undoubtedly much stronger than those from the Lingxiao Palace, such as Zhu Ling. Of course, even if disciples from other sects like Xuanbingmen arrived and the situation worsened, he would have a way to turn it around. However, under the watchful eyes of everyone, given the circumstances, he didn't want to use any other trump cards.

"Don't worry, Brother Lu, you just need to deal with that heartless scoundrel Meng Yu. The rest of the Xuanbing Sect disciples are ours." Zhu Ling gritted her teeth, her sword piercing through the throat of an enemy in front of her. Then, she swiftly charged towards another opponent.

Lu Xiaotian nodded inwardly. In terms of strength, Zhu Ling and the others were indeed powerful. Although they weren't as strong as elite disciples like Yin Yumu and Luo Qian, they were still significantly stronger than ordinary Qi Refining cultivators.

"Dream on if you think you can turn the tables!" Meng Yu's face contorted with rage. Seizing the opportunity as the ice spear's shockwave forced the Black Jiao Scissors back, he slapped his waist pouch. Suddenly, a massive brown bear of the third rank roared and emerged. The others stared in astonishment.

"Brother Lu, there's no need to worry, I've got this brown bear." Cold Clever Jade, who was closer, saw Zhu Ling intercept her opponent and immediately drew her hand. She took a few steps forward to block the brown bear's path. Although the situation had stabilized somewhat, the duel between Lu Xiaottian and Meng Yu was the key to the outcome of the battle between the two factions of cultivators. There could be no room for error.
