This girl's sword skills surpassed everyone he knew, her moves completely outshining his. The only thing he was better at now was inner strength, but there wasn't much room to demonstrate an advantage with it, especially when the difference in their levels of inner strength wasn't significant and they hadn't yet engaged in a battle of inner strength.

The girl's inner strength might be slightly lower than the Third Master's, but she made up for this deficiency completely with her sword skills. In terms of combat prowess, she was far superior; even if the Third Master hadn't given her the first move earlier, she could still壓製住Third Master.

"Stop!" Lüo Yunqing intervened when he saw the situation, knowing that continuing would only result in the Third Master losing, which wouldn't look good. Moreover, this girl didn't seem to have much hostility towards them.

"Alright, let's stop here." The Third Master also realized there was no point in continuing and stopped, along with the girl who hadn't seemed too intent on defeating him either.

"Miss, you said earlier that you just wanted to come in. What do you want to do by coming in" Lüo Yunqing asked her.

"I'm looking for someone," the girl replied.

"Who are you looking for" Lüo Yunqing enquired.

"Le Xiaoyao. They said that only the King would know where he is." The girl looked at Lüo Yunqing and asked, "Are you the king here"

"Le Xiaoyao... Xiaoyao He..." Lüo Yunqing exchanged a glance with the Third Master; he hadn't expected this girl to be looking for Xiaoyao. How come all of Xiaoyao's acquaintances were so formidable This girl was even more powerful than Wang Yan Yu.

Wang Yan Yu had her background, but this girl possessed extraordinary strength. As she matured, she would definitely become a leading figure in the world!

"I've recently lost touch with him. He said he's at Lüo Family last time I talked to him. I went there, and they told me that the head of Lüo Family has already taken over as King and suggested that I come here to ask the King."

She had been to the Lüo Family This implied that she must have also infiltrated the Lüo Family, so why was there no news about this

Just then, a message came from the Lüo Family, stating that a girl had arrived and knocked down many of their guards. She asked for information regarding Xiaoyao.

This piece of news was timely indeed; however, it also indicated that she had moved incredibly fast, arriving here faster than the Lüo Family could send a message about her presence.

"I am the head of the Lüo Family. What's your relationship with Xiaoyao"

"He is my servant," the girl said.

"Servant You must be the boss he often talks about," the Third Master suddenly recalled something Xiaoyao had mentioned frequently: that he was a servant to one boss.

"Yes. My name is Gu Xing, his boss. May I ask where he is now... Huh They're here too"

The girl turned out to be Gu Xing. Her messenger hawk usually returned after several days if there was no response from the recipient. However, this time it didn't return at all; she decided to come directly to Liuyue City as Xiaoyao had instructed.

Right when Gu Xing wanted to ask where Xiaoyao was, she sensed a few familiar presences and realized that others were also searching for him.

"Them" Lüo Yunqing and the others felt puzzled. Could it be that someone else came Judging by what the girl said, these people weren't coordinated beforehand but should still be acquaintances of Xiaoyao's.

These individuals must also know him well; they wondered if this group would turn out to be as astonishing as this girl had been.

Just as Lüo Yunqing was thinking about this, an answer appeared immediately. Regardless of other factors, their arrival methods were already astonishing enough:

"Clang..."

A phoenix-like cry echoed in the sky; everyone looked up to see a black bird circling overhead before it dived down and landed on the ground.

At this moment, they noticed three girls on the bird. They were not very old but each stunningly beautiful, though Gu Xing's presence somewhat diminished their impact. Nevertheless, the sudden appearance of three such beauties was still quite shocking.

"Seventh Sister, how did you manage to be faster than us I stole this black bird just to get here sooner."

A girl stepped down and spoke bluntly; it became clear that she hadn't owned the black bird but had stolen it.

This girl was obviously the eldest sister. Only she could call Gu Xing by her nickname, while the other two were Nangong's sisters. They came for the same reason as Gu Xing—none of them had heard from Xiaoyao and decided to come find him.

Although Xiaoyao might not want to talk much with them, he would usually reply with a simple "Hello" or "Let’s chat next time." However, this time, none of the messenger hawks sent out received any replies. They became very concerned and decided to come over directly.

The eldest sister even stole a black bird from Bai Lu Academy for speed—this was one of their prized possessions, so she would likely face severe punishment.

However, the eldest sister didn't mind this; Nangong’s sisters also agreed with her actions. The three arrived as quickly as possible thanks to the black bird's speed.

The eldest sister originally believed that she was the fastest but found out Gu Xing had beaten her.

They wouldn't have come so openly if they hadn’t sensed Gu Xing’s aura and joined forces directly.

"I'm not far from Nan Xia Kingdom," Gu Xing replied.

"So that's how it is. I see why you were faster than me. However, Nan Xia Kingdom isn't very distant from here. How did you get over" the eldest sister asked.

"Run over here." Gaoxin replied coolly.

"..."

The crowd fell silent, not expecting Gaoxin to come in this manner. This also indicated the extent of her nervousness. The Young Miss understood that Gaoxin had surely been traveling day and night just like them.

"Alright, let's talk about this later. Gaoxin, have you asked them what happened to Xiao Jiading" Nan Gong Susan said.

"You guys are all here for Xianyao, right!" Luo Yunqing looked at the three people of the Young Miss and saw two saint-level girls. When did saints become so common that even little girls like these could be promoted to saint level Moreover, their strength was not weak.

Although these two girls were not as powerful as before, they still matched her own strength; this was no simple matter!

"Yes, where is he" The Young Miss nodded and asked.

"Take a deep breath and calm down. You may find it hard to accept what I am about to say." Looking at the four girls, Luo Yunqing had difficulty opening his mouth as he feared hurting them but couldn’t avoid telling them.

"Just tell us! You wouldn’t be saying that he’s dead!" The Young Miss said casually. She didn't realize that her words were somewhat prophetic.

"This… He really died." Luo Yunqing replied.

"What!" Both Nan Gong sisters cried out in horror.

"Your joke is not funny!" The Young Miss frowned and said, while Gaoxin remained silent. However, the coldness emanating from her body spoke volumes.

"No, this isn’t a joke! It’s true! He died saving his father by blocking a palm strike…" Luo Yunqing explained.

“What situation” The Young Miss frowned deeply.

“The matter happened like this…” Luo Yunqing began to narrate the circumstances at that time.

"Qi Bupo He’s not Fang Chunxue's someone. Xianyao once suspected him of being his father's man. What is going on here" Nan Gong Susan frowned and asked.

“No matter what, he killed Xianyao. I want to take his life!” The Young Miss said coldly, but her determination was evident in the words she spoke.

"Kill!" Gaoxin simply said one word.

"Killing is a given, but how we do it needs careful consideration. Since he’s from the Sect of Devils and is also a divine level figure, we have to plan this out meticulously. We aren’t powerful enough at present!” Nan Gong Susan said.

“If we want to kill Qi Bupo, perhaps we need to destroy Moon Shadow Valley. With three years’ time, I believe it’s feasible,” Miss Third of the Nan Gong Family remarked.

"Yes, killing Qi Bupo isn’t difficult; with our trio attacking and a year's preparation after breaking through, that should suffice. However, there are certainly others around him who must be dealt with," The Young Miss said.

With just Qi Bupo, they could combine forces to kill him. Of course, not currently, but once they break through in a year and meticulously plan it out, they could do it.

"..."

Seeing the reaction of these four girls, Luo Yunqing and others knew how much they cared about Xianyao. At the same time, they were madly determined; all wanting to kill Qi Bupo and destroy Moon Shadow Valley.

"I want to see Xianyao." Gaoxin suddenly said. She didn’t believe that Xianyao died like that without seeing his corpse. She wouldn't accept it until she saw him dead or alive.

“Yes, I also wish to see Xianyao. I don’t think he could be so short-lived,” the Young Miss said.

"That's right; although I feel somewhat worried, I still can't believe that he has already passed away," Third Miss of Nan Gong Family stated.

“Right, even if Xiao Jiading is now a corpse, we must see him for ourselves,” Nan Gong Susan said.

"This..." Luo Yunqing had yet to mention the matter where Xianyao was taken away by Qi Bupo. He hesitated as he felt somewhat embarrassed to say it. that little ball..." The second waiter was in shock. Even if there were ten people, they might not be able to finish all this food. Now, it was only for one person to eat. How could that be possibleI...
