Coming to Qin Feiyang’s side, Fatty whispered, "Boss, what have you discovered?"
"A peculiar flower," replied Qin Feiyang.
"A peculiar flower!" Fatty’s eyes immediately sparkled.
The water grew hotter, and steam billowed in increasing amounts. The water level was dropping rapidly.
Suddenly, seeming to realize something, Fatty asked, "Boss, since that peculiar flower is growing at the bottom of the pool, won’t your actions destroy it?"
The question was a rude awakening. Qin Feiyang quickly recalled the Netherworld Demon Flame. He looked at the pool, and for a moment, genuinely could not think of a better solution.
In the end, gritting his teeth, he looked at Fatty and said, "I’ll go down once more. Keep a careful watch here; I’m worried the commotion just now might have drawn others’ attention."
"Other people?" Fatty, startled, lowered his voice. "You mean the people from the other eight great states?"
Qin Feiyang surveyed the surroundings and replied solemnly, "Although we don’t see them now, we still need to be cautious."
"Alright." Fatty nodded.
THUD!
Gripping Blue Snow tightly, Qin Feiyang summoned the Netherworld Demon Flame above his head and jumped back into the pool.
The water was extremely hot. However, with his current cultivation level, he could still bear it.
However, shortly after he jumped into the water, five silhouettes rushed out from the jungle ahead like lightning.
Upon seeing them, Fatty’s expression changed dramatically, and he yelled, "Boss, come out quickly! Mo Wushen and the others are here!"
Dong Zhengyang and the others instantly gathered, gazing gloomily at the five newcomers.
Indeed! The arrivals were Mo Wushen, Pan Wuyan, Yan Tianfeng, along with Liu Yunfeng and Pei Sanshi!
Mo Wushen’s eyes swept over the crowd, a cold light gleaming within them. With a wave of his hand, he bellowed, "Attack!"
BOOM!!!
The five unleashed their auras.
Mo Wushen sprang towards Fatty, while Yan Tianfeng and the other three targeted Dong Zhengyang and his group.
Fatty’s face turned deathly pale. Liu Yunfeng and Pei Sanshi had actually advanced to the War Ancestor stage! In other words, Yun State now had five king-level War Ancestors!
How could they possibly fight this?
With Dong Zhengyang alone, it was impossible to resist the five attackers.
THUD!
Without hesitation, he leaped into the pool.
"Quite clever, aren’t you!" Mo Wushen sneered, changing his trajectory to go after Ren Wushuang and the others.
Dong Zhengyang hurriedly shouted, "All of you, go! I’ll hold them off!"
Yan Tianfeng sneered, "No one leaves, or you all die!"
Pan Wuyan said, "If you surrender obediently and don’t resist, we might spare your lives."
Ren Wushuang frowned and asked, "What exactly do you want?"
"What do we want? You’ll find out soon enough." A cold smile spread across Mo Wushen’s face.
The five didn’t actually strike. They just surrounded Ren Wushuang and the others in the center, then focused their attention on the pool, as if waiting for something.
SPLASH!!
Soon after, Qin Feiyang and Fatty shot up from the water simultaneously and landed on the shore.
Qin Feiyang’s expression darkened the moment he saw Mo Wushen and the other four.
"You’re finally out," Mo Wushen said. "Hand over that peculiar flower!"
Qin Feiyang frowned. "You know about it too?"
"We’ve known for a while, but we couldn’t do anything about those Black Demon Locusts, so we haven’t been able to get it. Originally, we were prepared to give up. Who would have thought you’d come here and find a way to deal with those Black Demon Locusts? So, we hid in the nearby jungle, waiting for the perfect moment to strike."
Pan Wuyan said with an overflowing smile, "Qin Feiyang, I must say, you truly are remarkable, actually possessing a Fifth Grade Demonic Fire."
"You’ve come too early," Qin Feiyang said. "I haven’t gotten my hands on the peculiar flower yet. If you’re so capable, why don’t you go get it yourselves?"
"You haven’t gotten it yet?" The five raised their eyebrows in surprise.
"I’m very curious. Do you even know what that peculiar flower is? Why do you want it so badly?" Qin Feiyang asked.
"We don’t know, but one look tells us it’s no ordinary thing. Since you haven’t gotten it yet, hand over your Fifth Grade Demonic Fire," Mo Wushen replied. He pointed at Ren Wushuang and the others, his voice icy. "If you dare to utter a single ’no’, all these people will die before your very eyes!"
Qin Feiyang glanced at everyone, a slight smirk playing on his lips. He looked at Mo Wushen and chuckled. "To be honest, I’m quite annoyed by them too. If you really kill them, it would save me a lot of trouble."
"Senior Brother Qin, you can’t do this!" Wu Yan and the others pleaded incessantly, their voices filled with panic.
Qin Feiyang sneered. "Are your lives worth this wisp of Fifth Grade Demonic Fire?"
"Damn it! I poured my heart out for you, yet I didn’t expect you to be so heartless! I was truly blind!" Dong Zhengyang roared in anger.

"Poured your heart out?" Qin Feiyang sneered disdainfully. "Don’t be ridiculous. Who doesn’t know you want to kill me to avenge the Dong family?"
Mo Wushen glanced at Dong Zhengyang, then looked at Qin Feiyang with a teasing expression. "It seems you’ve made quite a few enemies in Spirit State!"
Qin Feiyang shrugged helplessly. "Can’t be helped. I’m just too likable."
Pan Wuyan and the others’ faces twitched.
Shameless and even proud of it! How could such a thick-skinned person exist in this world?
Mo Wushen’s gaze, however, shifted between Dong Zhengyang and Qin Feiyang, scanning them back and forth. Suddenly, a glint flashed in his eyes. He gave the two men a thumbs-up and said, "Impressive. I didn’t expect you both to be so talented at acting. I was almost convinced."
Qin Feiyang and Dong Zhengyang’s hearts sank.
Indeed! They had been putting on an act, hoping to make Mo Wushen’s group lower their guard so they could then coordinate from both inside and out to save everyone. However, they hadn’t expected Mo Wushen to see through it so quickly.
"Acting?" Pan Wuyan and the other three stared coldly, startled.
With a wave of his hand, Yan Tianfeng’s Battle Intent surged forth, transforming into a giant earthen-yellow hand that reached for Ren Wushuang and the others.
"Fight me one-on-one if you dare!" Dong Zhengyang shouted coldly, stepping in front of everyone. The Black Demon Seal instantly materialized and blasted towards the giant hand.
Meanwhile, Qin Feiyang waved his hand, sending Fatty and the Netherworld Demon Flame into the Ancient Castle. He then launched Phantom Step, sweeping towards Ren Wushuang and the others.
"HUMPH!" Mo Wushen and Pan Wuyan snorted coldly, both stepping in front of Qin Feiyang.
BOOM!
With a deafening crash, the Black Demon Seal and the giant hand violently collided. The giant hand was merely an ordinary attack and naturally couldn’t block the Black Demon Seal, a Battle Art manifestation. It shattered in an instant. Then, the Black Demon Seal, carrying world-ending might, bombarded Yan Tianfeng!
"Heavenly Aura Art, Battle Shield!" Yan Tianfeng shouted. His large, fan-like hand reached out, and his Battle Intent surged, coalescing into a thick, heavy battle shield before him. He actually managed to block the Black Demon Seal with it!
After the brief exchange, both stumbled back a few paces, blood trickling from the corners of their mouths.
Enraged, Yan Tianfeng bellowed, "Liu Yunfeng, Pei Sanshi, join me! Let’s wipe them out!"
The two unleashed their Battle Intent, their auras surging to the heavens.
But at this moment, Qin Feiyang’s eyes flashed. He shouted, "Liu Yunfeng, Pei Sanshi, have you forgotten how they once humiliated you? Don’t you want to wash away that disgrace?"
Liu Yunfeng and Pei Sanshi stiffened. A burning rage flared within them. The humiliation Yan Tianfeng had dealt them in the Spirit Cloud Mountain Range was like an indelible brand on their hearts, a stain they could never forget.
A perfect opportunity!
Dong Zhengyang’s eyes flashed at the sight. He executed an esoteric footwork technique and charged towards Yan Tianfeng!
Simultaneously, the battle between Qin Feiyang and Mo Wushen erupted.
"Seven Kills Art, activate!" Mo Wushen’s body shuddered. Blood-red energy coiled around him, his killing intent boiling!
SWOOSH!
Following this, a blood-red blade, dozens of zhang in length, materialized, slashing towards Qin Feiyang, its sharp edge tearing the earth apart!
"Ice Heavenly Projection!" Above Pan Wuyan’s head, a frosty vortex formed. A massive Ice Elephant roared out of it, its ferocity unparalleled, as it dove towards Qin Feiyang.
Both unleashed their Battle Arts from the outset, clearly showing how wary they were of Qin Feiyang.
However, Qin Feiyang had no intention of clashing with them head-on. As the two Battle Arts rained down, he directly entered the Ancient Castle. Once they had swept past, he emerged again, using Phantom Step to leave incredibly realistic afterimages all around Mo Wushen and Pan Wuyan.
Mo Wushen and Pan Wuyan stared at the afterimages, bewildered.
Which one is the real Qin Feiyang?
"All of you, be destroyed!" Pan Wuyan roared furiously.
SCREECH!
Accompanied by a sharp cry, an Ice Phoenix soared out from the vortex above her head! Wherever it passed, the afterimages continuously disintegrated.
"It seems you haven’t learned your lesson from Commander Nie." But suddenly, an icy voice sounded from behind Pan Wuyan.
She stiffened instantly and whirled around. An emotionless face met her gaze—it was Qin Feiyang! He was right before her eyes!
Driven by her fear of Qin Feiyang, she retreated without hesitation. At that very moment, however, she felt a sharp pain in her chest. Instinctively looking down, she saw Blue Snow, the pearly white dagger, buried in her heart.
"AHH..." Intense pain washed over her like a tidal wave, and she couldn’t help but scream. But even as she screamed, a crazed fury glinted in her eyes. She lunged, grabbing Qin Feiyang tightly with both hands, and shrieked, "Mo Wushen, quickly!"
Seeing this, Mo Wushen’s killing intent surged. Several blood-red blades materialized in an instant and slashed towards Qin Feiyang’s neck!
Qin Feiyang roared, "Are you insane?" He hadn’t expected Pan Wuyan to be this reckless!
Women! Truly the most dangerous creatures to provoke!
Pan Wuyan gave a sinister smile. "If I die, I’m taking you with me!"
"Then you can die alone!" With a mere thought, Qin Feiyang instantly transported both himself and Pan Wuyan into the Ancient Castle.
BOOM!!
The instant he vanished, the blood-red blades struck the spot where he’d stood, blasting a huge crater in the ground.
"Damn it!" Mo Wushen was incandescent with rage. That had been the perfect chance to kill Qin Feiyang, yet, to his dismay, he had escaped again.
"You will all die!" Like a savage beast, he turned and glared murderously at Ren Wushuang and the others.
STOMP!
Taking a heavy step, he charged forward maniacally.
「Inside the Ancient Castle!」
Qin Feiyang violently shrugged Pan Wuyan off, then slammed a fist into her abdomen.
"AAARGH..." With a wretched scream, Pan Wuyan was sent flying, crashing hard against the far wall.
"Kill her!" Qin Feiyang ordered Fatty, his eyes radiating bone-chilling killing intent.
Pan Wuyan’s heart had been pierced by Blue Snow; she was already at death’s door. Even if left in the Ancient Castle, she posed no threat to Fatty and the others.
Then, taking Blue Snow, he left the Ancient Castle.
The moment he saw Mo Wushen charging towards Ren Wushuang and her companions, he activated Phantom Step and swiftly pursued. Simultaneously, he roared, "Mo Wushen, if you dare harm them, once we leave the Netherworld, I swear I will go to Yun State and annihilate your entire Mo family!"
Mo Wushen sneered, his eyes glinting with murderous intent. "Assuming you’re even capable."
