On Evergreen Peak, everyone who saw Dongfang Wu being stabbed through the heart by a sword felt a chill.

The Dongfang Family is the only one who ranks among the top ten in the world of spiritual cultivation through physical cultivation, and has remained in the top five all year round. As the confirmed next head of the Dongfang Family, Dongfang Wu has reached a level above the Wufu Divine Realm.

If the sharpest "moon" in the world is held in the hands of the strongest person in the Wuji Sword Sect, then the strongest "shield" is the physical body of the strongest person in the Dongfang Family.

The Sword Sect disciples on Evergreen Peak had complicated emotions. In another scenario, they might have been proud of their sect master, but at this moment they could only suppress the throbbing in their hearts.

An elder of the Dongfang Family was so powerful that he rushed straight towards Dongfang Wu who was lying on the ground.

This scene completely ignited the pent-up atmosphere on Evergreen Peak. The remaining members of the Dongfang family wanted to follow, but the elders of the Sword Sect tried to stop them. The two groups of people who were supposed to work together to overcome the difficulties collided with each other in the blink of an eye. .

"The situation is out of control."

Bai He came to the unconscious Dongfang Tielei and said to Mu Qing on the other side of the kendama.

There was a whistling wind in the kendama. Bai He was the first to respond, followed closely by Mu Qing's voice: "The mark that the sword ghost planted on the elders by studying the sword scripture is relatively shallow, and not many people become sword puppets." "

"But when it pretended to be Lu Tai, almost all the people it came into contact with had become sword puppets. Brother Xichuan said that Ni Xiuyun has escaped from the illusion. You have to be careful about him sneaking up on you."

Bai He was about to respond when his eyes condensed and he looked behind him.

She is the daughter of Bai Ke and the peak master of Evergreen Peak. Her prestige in the Sword Sect is second only to Elder Lu Tai and Cangjian. Many elders and disciples subconsciously move closer to her.

Someone had taken advantage of the chaotic crowd to come behind her. The two looked at each other, and the sounds around them slowed down for a moment.

"Qiang."

The long sword was unsheathed, leaving a trace of blood.

Ni Xiuyun covered his throat, his eyes full of horror and regret.

The gap between the peak of Mortal Transformation and the Saint King Realm was too big. He didn't understand why he wanted to sneak attack Bai He, but he only had such clarity for a moment, and his consciousness was replaced by the desire deeply rooted in the heart of the sword.

He wanted to kill Bai He. He had done so much, and he should have been the peak master of Evergreen Peak a long time ago.

"Tap."

Ni Xiuyun covered his throat and jumped forward two steps. His mouth grew huge, and a "ho ho" sound came from his throat.

The sword was intended to quickly destroy his vitality. Although Bai He's attack was deadly enough, it did not destroy Ni Xiuyun's vitality instantly.

Lines of red mist rushed out from Ni Xiuyun's twisted face, and soon a faint shadow of a sword was formed in front of Ni Xiuyun: "Boom——"

The sword shadow roared forward, and Ni Xiuyun detonated his physical body at the same time.

The mark of the sword puppet instantly drained Ni Xiuyun's blood and vitality, and the power that exploded could reach the threshold of the Holy King Realm.

Bai He swept across with his sword, and the snow-white sword energy roared out, blocking all the flesh and blood that hit his face, but he was shocked in his heart.

The shadow of the sword that cut off soldiers passed through her sword energy without any hindrance, and shot straight towards her.

A hand suddenly broke into her field of vision, a whistling sound was heard, and a purple-gold vortex appeared in a flash, forcibly swallowing the sword shadow.

"Mu Qing?! Why are you here."

Bai He looked at the visitor in surprise.

Mu Qing frowned slightly and held Dongfang Tielei's shoulders, "The sword ghost calls them 'spiritual species'. We have to take him back to Huaihe Peak."

Bai He was about to remind Mu Qing that he should not leave Huaihe Peak when he suddenly heard the sound of swords in the sky. He looked up and saw that Lu Tai was already fighting with Su Huang.

Su Huang is the real reason why Huaihe Peak has always been named Su. Although there is no hope of joining the Tao, Lu Tai has been held back in the same realm.

Before Bai He could breathe a sigh of relief, a cry suddenly came from the crowd: "Elder Ni died in the hands of the Peak Master!"

"Wow——"

The elders who were approaching Bai He all stopped in place. They could see clearly that Ni Xiuyun was closest to Bai He, but he was killed by Bai He.

Bai He frowned and locked his eyes on the two people who had retreated to the back of the crowd. Just as he was about to take action, a figure rushed forward beside him.

When Mu Qing contacted Bai He, he had already arrived at Evergreen Peak. He was the first to find Ni Xiuyun and noticed that something was wrong with the two people behind Ni Xiuyun.

Although he was only in the middle stage of mortal transformation, the moment he made a move, he reached his limit. The pressure on him faintly exceeded the peak of mortal transformation. These elders on Evergreen Peak were already confused. Everyone sought to protect themselves first. Seeing him charging towards him, they all stopped in unison. Get out of the way.

The two sword puppets never expected that the situation would develop like this. When they met Mu Qing's calm eyes, their eyes were already flying.

The demon-suppressing sword swept across, and the two heads were thrown away.

Mu Qing didn't stop, he shouted softly, and shot out two golden sword shadows from the center of his eyebrows, completely destroying the bodies of the two sword puppets.

The noisy sounds around him suddenly stopped for a moment.

Many people from the Sword Sect saw this scene. Some of the elders were very familiar with Ni Xiuyun and had a good relationship with the two elders. Seeing that the two were killed like this, they were ashamed of their reaction just now, and their eyes turned red. We must attack Mu Qing, an outsider.

When Bai He saw this scene, he knew something was wrong and was about to speak.

The two heads fell to the ground, were caught by Mu Qing, and exploded immediately. Two red lights shot directly towards Mu Qing's eyebrows.

Mu Qing snorted coldly, a green light bloomed from the center of his eyebrows, imprisoning the two red lights, looked around, and said loudly: "This is the sword puppet mark planted in their bodies by the sword demon. They have already been controlled by the sword demon."

Someone immediately cursed: "Vicious, you kill someone and you frame him."

Mu Qing pointed at Lu Tai, who was fighting fiercely with Su Huang in the sky, and said: "Every elder who has been in contact with the Sword Sutra has a sword puppet mark left in his body, but this mark is not deep, and it will only be affected if he is close to the sword ghost. If you don’t believe it, you can try it.”

The elders' eyes became more and more evil.

Mu Qing continued: "In addition, if the complete sword puppet imprint is separated from the original sword puppet, priority will be given to those who have been eroded more deeply."

After Mu Qing finished speaking, he loosened his hand, and the two sword puppet marks on his hand fled away from Mu Qing and rushed towards the two nearest elders.

One of the two elders scolded Mu Qing and was shocked when he saw this. He was about to block it, but his expression suddenly froze, his eyes were dull, and he stood there without any reaction, still rushing from the mark to the center of his eyebrows.

"hiss--"

There was a gasp in the crowd.

This time, everyone witnessed with their own eyes the changes in these two people in front of the sword ghost mark. They really couldn't imagine how they would be manipulated by others when facing the sword ghost directly.

Mu Qing appeared in front of the two of them in time and destroyed the two marks.

"..."

"You can still think this is my trick, and I can't control you. But if you don't want to die inexplicably, then work together to form a formation to keep Sect Master Lu and this ghost out."

Seeing Mu Qing's actions calming everyone present, Bai He sighed softly and asked the trusted elder to return to where he should have been and maintain the mountain-protecting formation.

Mu Qing took Dongfang Tielei to Bai He's side and said, "Let's go."

Bai He was busy arranging everyone's tasks. He was stunned when he heard this, and quickly took Mu Qing aside and said: "If these 'spiritual species' are gathered together, Huaihe Peak will be under great pressure. How about"

Mu Qing shook his head, looked into the air, and said in a deep voice: "Sect Master Lu hasn't used his full strength until now, otherwise Sister Qingyu and the others would have appeared."

Bai He frowned: "What do you mean?"

"He's waiting for us to gather the 'spiritual seeds' together."

"Then we can't do this."

Mu Qing sighed softly: "This can be considered a threat."

Mu Qing said: "Before I came to Evergreen Peak, I first went to see Elder Zangjian."

"He was defeated by Sect Leader Lu."

"He told me that Sect Master Lu and Sword Demon are looking for a state of harmony with each other. If we spread out like this, we will only give him such an opportunity."

"When he reaches that state, none of us will be his opponent. We might as well gather together and try to suppress him and Sword Demon together."

Thinking of Ye Qingyu's strength, Bai He nodded slightly, feeling the eyes that were still looking at her from time to time, and frowned: "Will they be okay?"

Mu Qing had personal experience in the Jingming Realm, and had another conversation with the Cangjian Elder. He was already the person with the best grasp of the situation in the entire Sword Sect, and said in a deep voice:

"Old Sect Leader Bai is the first person to be imprinted with a complete sword puppet mark."

"In Sect Leader Lu's plan, he will try his best to gain the sword ghost's trust and help the sword ghost enter the state of reshaping his spiritual body as soon as possible."

"The sword demon in this state will be restricted to the sword, and will not be able to exert any influence on the person who has been imprinted with the sword puppet mark."

Bai He looked complicated.

Mu Qing continued: "Elder Zangjian told me that Sect Master Lu will use the sword ghost's method to suppress the sword ghost when it is at its weakest."

Mu Qing looked at the elders, "The sword puppet cannot provide enough kendo aura. Sect Leader Lu will only target the 'spiritual species', but the sword ghost is likely to influence these elders to attack us."

"That's why you warned them to stay away from the Sword Demon."

"Yes, I hope it can have some effect."

Bai He frowned and looked at the figure in the sky, hesitated to speak, and finally couldn't help but ask: "If the sword ghost is suppressed, will the sword puppet mark dissipate?"

"If the sword ghost dies, these marks related to it will naturally dissipate."

Mu Qing knew that Bai He had not finished what he said, so he sighed softly: "Sect Master Lu insisted on going his own way and suffered a lot, but I don't think he can succeed."

"Senior Fang said that if you want to use the sword ghost's method to dominate, you need to at least open up the realm. The sword ghost can't completely dominate him, and he can't completely dominate the sword ghost's destiny."

A bright light suddenly flashed in Bai He's heart, and he exclaimed in shock: "Not only the sword ghost is seeking the perfection of the realm, but the senior brother is also preparing to join the Tao!"

Mu Qing nodded calmly. It was because he had guessed this that he came to Bai He in person and said frankly: "He and Sword Demon can achieve each other's success."

Bai He said bitterly: "If it succeeds, senior brother will fulfill his father's expectations and become the best swordsman in the world."

Mu Qing needed Bai He's judgment and expressed the doubts that had long arisen in his heart: "The best person in the world of swordsmanship is actually the best person in the world of cultivation. On the one hand, he has such an achievement, and on the other hand, he cut off his arm to save the sleeping master. What do you think Sect Master Lu will choose?"

Bai He suddenly raised his head and stared at Mu Qing. After a long time, he said slowly: "Elder brother has done a lot, and he has good reasons for his choices. But we cannot put everyone's safety on an uncertain choice. .”

Mu Qing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I need you to go to Jinglan Peak."
