Chapter 1087 Counterfeiting
This confirms without a doubt that something happened in Qinglianhai.

The more you are afraid of something, the more you become afraid of it.

Good things don't work, but bad things do.

The other disciples of Tianjian Peak also reached this conclusion, and their expressions changed drastically, causing their hearts to waver.

Chu Zhiyuan felt a sense of helplessness, even though the atmosphere at Tianjian Peak was excellent.

They can maintain a distance from each other, allowing them to quietly focus on their practice, while also showing warmth and harmony, without any scheming or backstabbing.

Furthermore, the Heavenly Sword hangs in the void, protecting the entire Heavenly Sword Peak, allowing one to cultivate in peace.

Moreover, it is one of the four major sects, with a high enough status and top-notch cultivation methods.

Such a wonderful start is now about to collapse.

As they spoke, two groups of people drifted in from afar, each group consisting of thirteen people, with the leader leading twelve experts.

Li Hongzhao looked around and asked, "Senior Sister Dong, why are there thirteen experts with them?"

"It's just a coincidence," Dong Muyu said. "I didn't expect thirteen of them to show up."

Li Hongzhao frowned: "The three families each have thirteen, making a total of thirty-nine, less than forty... How many experts do we have on the mountain?"

Dong Muyu chuckled: "What are you thinking! ...Don't worry, it won't happen."

She immediately understood what Li Hongzhao meant.

They were afraid that the experts from the three sects might have ulterior motives and want to take the opportunity to attack Tianjian Peak.

This is truly an absurd idea.

Chu Zhiyuan suddenly spoke up: "These demons must be able to change their appearance and temperament, right?"

Dong Muyu nodded: "Many evil spirits are prone to transformation."

Li Hongzhao perked up and hurriedly said, "Isn't this a bit too much of a coincidence? Could they all be fakes?"

Dong Muyu shook her head and chuckled: "They can't hide it from the sect leader."

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "These two are probably fake."

Dong Muyu asked in surprise, "Junior Brother Chu, what did you notice? The Guiyang Sword Sect and the Fuyun Sect are both imposters?"

Chu Zhiyuan slowly nodded and said, "I feel something is wrong. It must be fake... Of course, this can't be hidden from the sect leader."

The two groups behind them were emanating a faint, strange aura.

The aura was very faint, but he possessed the aura of the Demon-Subduing Divine Tree and was very sensitive to it.

Otherwise, you might not be able to sense it.

He then said, "Their target should be the senior sisters of Guanghan Palace, or the senior brothers of Guiyang Sword Sect and Fuyun Sect, right?"

With the Heavenly Sword in the sky, these imposters will find it difficult to succeed.

However, if they encounter disciples of Guanghan Palace or other two major sects outside of Tianjian Peak, they might still be able to successfully deceive them and launch a surprise attack.

Dong Muyu hurriedly said, "Oh no, we have to warn them right away!"

After she finished speaking, she leaped into the air and flew towards the main hall.

Chu Zhiyuan stared intently at the two groups of people slowly approaching, using his super-sensory perception.

Under the influence of extrasensory perception, both groups of people were enveloped by an invisible force that blocked their extrasensory insight.

The Venerables also had a layer of power surrounding them, preventing them from being detected.

Therefore, we cannot conclude that they have a problem based on this alone.

Even with extrasensory perception, one cannot see clearly, let alone with ordinary eyes.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head inwardly.

These evil spirits truly possess extraordinary abilities, making them impossible to guard against.

How did the Heavenly Sword discern them? Did it see through their bodies, or could it sense a trace of that sinister power?
Dong Muyu entered the main hall and floated out a moment later, landing back beside Chu Zhiyuan and Li Hongzhao.

Li Hongzhao lowered her voice: "Senior Sister, is it really that easy to enter the Sect Leader's Hall?"

Dong Muyu looked at her, puzzled.

Li Hongzhao said, "Don't I need to announce my presence before seeing the sect leader?"

Dong Muyu was even more puzzled: "What's the point of reporting? If you want to see him, just go see him. If you have anything to say, just say it."

Li Hongzhao hesitated.

She still couldn't understand this situation.

As one of the top four sects, the Heavenly Sword Sect should be solemn and dignified. How could it be so careless and casual?
Dong Muyu said, “Our Heavenly Sword Sect is different from the imperial court. We don’t have so many rules. Apart from the sect leader, elders, and hall masters of each hall, the rest are disciples. If there’s anything, just go to the hall master, elder, or sect leader. Since the elders aren’t here, of course we’ll go directly to the sect leader.”

Li Hongzhao nodded slowly.

Chu Zhiyuan, however, could understand.

After all, the Heavenly Sword Sect has a small number of members, and its vertical and flat organizational structure is more conducive to uniting people's hearts.

This model won't work if it involves a large number of people (tens of thousands).

Dong Muyu said, "I told the sect leader, and he will send out a message... Also, the Azure Lotus Sea is indeed in trouble. Two more powerful demons have appeared and used a secret technique to trap our senior brothers and sisters. They can't break free in a short time." Chu Zhiyuan seemed thoughtful.

Li Hongzhao hurriedly asked, "Did you and your senior brothers and sisters perish?"

"How is that possible!" Dong Muyu waved his hand dismissively: "With the Heavenly Sword protecting me, even if I'm no match for it, I won't perish."

"The Heavenly Sword protects you?" Li Hongzhao asked curiously, "Will the power of the Heavenly Sword descend upon you then?"

“That’s right.” Dong Muyu said, “If they encounter any trouble over there, the sect leader’s Heavenly Sword can immediately send power to help. Putting aside everything else, saving their lives is not a problem.”

"I see..." Li Hongzhao suddenly realized.

The Heavenly Sword has an avatar in the Lesser Heavenly Realm, so naturally it can also have an avatar in this Azure Origin Heaven.

……

Two beams of white light flew out from Chu Zhiyuan's sleeve and left the light barrier once again.

At this moment, Zhao Simeng, who had led the way earlier, returned from the main hall and arrived at the White Jade Square.

Seeing this, she said softly, "How about I go and test the waters first? Just in case we make a mistake."

She recognized all 26 people in these two groups, and was very familiar with the leader of each group.

We not only interacted regularly, but also had closer communication.

She believed that she could find out the truth by simply asking a few questions.

Chu Zhiyuan said softly, "If you made a mistake, just explain it. There's no need to go to such trouble, Senior Sister Zhao."

“…Alright.” Zhao Simeng sighed, “If I really made a mistake, I need to explain it properly.”

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

The two throwing knives accelerated again, each beam of white light shooting towards a group of people.

The group on the left is strikingly handsome, while the group on the right is relaxed and carefree.

Each has its own unique charm, and all can move people's hearts.

Without Dong Muyu's introduction, Chu Zhiyuan could guess which group was from the Fuyun Sect and which group was from the Guiyang Sword Sect.

The two groups responded differently to the incoming throwing knives.

The young leader of the Fuyun Sect flicked his sleeve, intending to brush the flying knife away.

A flash of red light appeared at the waist of the young man from the Guiyang Sword Sect, and his sword slashed towards the flying knife.

But the throwing knife suddenly seemed to vanish, as if it had turned into an illusion.

The next moment, they were hit.

Suddenly, golden light burst forth.

"what!"

"what!"

The screams rang out almost simultaneously.

The two of them transformed into a ball of golden light, like a blazing flame.

A moment later, the golden light dissipated, and the two had vanished.

Two beams of white light shot towards the twelve people behind them, hitting one of them again.

"what!"

"what!"

"Stop! We are disciples of the Fuyun Sect, here to offer our assistance. Is this how the Tianjian Sect treats its friends?!"

"Heavenly Sword Sect, what are you trying to do?!"

The two groups dodged the flying knives while shouting, their noise shaking the sky.

Chu Zhiyuan declared loudly, "My Demon-Subduing Blade only kills evil spirits!"

The people in Baiyu Square had already noticed something amiss.

If it were a normal person, they wouldn't disappear completely after being killed by the Demon-Subduing Blade.
There is no such miraculous skill or artifact that can annihilate a person in the blink of an eye.

Unless it is a demon.

Both groups are evil spirits.

While they secretly breathed a sigh of relief, they were also extremely angry.

When they saw the experts from the three sects appear, they were all startled. Afterwards, they found out that it was a fake, and they were naturally extremely angry, feeling that Chu Zhiyuan had done a good job killing them.

"go!"

A deep shout rang out, and the remaining twenty-two men turned and fled.

The other two had already emitted golden light, and then vanished.
