I picked up the scattered attributes

There's no way around it; after all, Qianqiu Valley doesn't have Weibo, WeChat, or Moments. Many people go into seclusion for ten days to half a month at a time, so their understanding of Fengxia is merely a symbolic name.

Most of them never witnessed that decisive battle.

"He's lost his mind! He's absolutely lost his mind! How can he be so reckless and disrespectful!"

One of the deacons, who had left the mountain gate early and was among the first to return, looked grim and couldn't help but let out a low shout: "Even if I am just a deacon, I must remonstrate with my life!"

Someone recognized him as Yin Kaiyu, one of the senior deacons of Qianqiu Valley, and couldn't contain their curiosity, asking, "Deacon Yin, why are you so opposed to this?"

"To appoint an outsider as the new sect leader would only demonstrate our sect's incompetence! If this gets out, it will make Thousand Autumn Valley a laughingstock!"

"But I heard that the new sect leader is very powerful?"

"Hmph! So what if he's strong? Can he be stronger than the old sect leader?" Yin Kaiyu snorted coldly, then pretended to be serious and said, "In terms of cultivation, he can't compare to the First Elder and the Sixth Elder. In terms of reputation, what has he done for our sect since he came to Qianqiu Valley?"

"But I heard that the new sect leader seems to have killed Duke Wei, Mo Yuanlong..."

"Even if we kill the Duke of Wei, so what? No matter how strong he is, there are still those at the Yuan Dan realm... Wait! You just said the Duke of Wei, Mo Yuanlong?"

He was halfway through his sentence when Yin Kaiyu suddenly snapped back to reality.

Duke of Wei!

Mo Yuanlong!!

It wasn't until this moment that he suddenly realized... Duke Wei, Mo Yuanlong, was none other than the Yuan Dan realm official of the imperial court, who had suppressed Xuanwu Kingdom for over a hundred years without anyone being able to defeat him!

"This...this...this is impossible! This is absolutely impossible..."

Yin Kaiyu was immediately bewildered: "That's the Yuan Dan realm, the strongest in Xuanwu Kingdom, how could he possibly..."

The disciple gave him a strange look: "The new sect leader is also at the Yuan Dan realm. What's wrong with him killing the Duke of Wei? Besides, the Duke of Wei's head is hanging over there in the martial arts arena. Deacon Yin, have you not gone to see it yet?"

"Cough cough cough! No, no, I was just a little too nervous, so I accidentally forgot about it. In that case, it is indeed well-deserved for Sect Leader Feng to succeed him."

Yin Kaiyu shook his head hastily, then said sternly, "If anyone dares to object, they are going against me, Yin Kaiyu!"

At the same time, a huge storm was raging in his heart.

He only went out with the group to seek refuge for a few days...

What exactly happened during that time?!

If even Duke Mo Yuanlong of Weiguo was killed by Elder Feng... no, Sect Leader Feng, then should he continue his mission of infiltrating Qianqiu Valley?

Should he continue to lie low, or return to the capital?

Just as Yin Kaiyu was feeling bewildered, a loud laugh suddenly came from afar. A long rainbow appeared, piercing through the air as it approached. The five elements of energy surged and boiled. Then, the sect leader of the Five Elements Sect, dressed in brocade robes, appeared in everyone's sight.

"It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early!"

The Five Elements Sect Master flicked his sleeves, strode towards the mountain gate of Thousand Autumn Valley, and said loudly, "On the occasion of your sect's new leader taking office, I have come here to apologize and offer a Golden Luo Rock mine and ten bottles of Dao Platform Realm Treasure Pills as a way of apologizing for all my previous offenses."

He had a certain degree of confidence regarding this visit.

After all, the value of a single Jinluoyan mine is enough to make countless powerful individuals covet it!

Now that Qianqiu Valley is in dire need of rebuilding, there is no reason for it not to accept this compensation!

Swah——

Just a second before he stepped into Thousand Autumn Valley, an incomparably sharp sword light shot out from the depths of Thousand Autumn Valley, nailing the foot of the Five Elements Sect Master just before he took a step. It was only a hair's breadth away from completely piercing his foot!

"Five Elements Sect Master, halt ahead."

A calm voice followed.

……

Chapter 0081

"Sect Leader Feng... what... do you mean by this?"

The Five Elements Sect Master suddenly stopped, his face turning slightly pale as he felt a strange chill.

It's no exaggeration to say that if he had taken a step faster, or if the sword light had shifted even slightly, his entire foot would have been pierced by the sword light in an instant!

If he had been moving just a little faster...

He dared not imagine any further.

"Feng had no other intentions."

Feng Xia walked out of the Thousand Autumns Hall step by step, his face calm, like a still well. He looked down at the Taoist and said, "I just want to make one thing clear—the Thousand Autumns Valley is not a place for you, fellow Daoist."

He paused slightly, glanced at the Five Elements Sect Master, and then continued:

"If you continue to advance, then don't blame me for starting a killing spree."

"you……"

The Five Elements Sect Master's face immediately turned extremely ugly.

Regardless, he was still the head of a sect. He personally brought congratulatory gifts to the sect, but was stopped by Feng Xia outside the mountain gate. Feng Xia even threatened that if he continued to come forward, Feng Xia would start a massacre!

However, when facing Feng Xia, he ultimately held back.

There's no way around it, Feng Xia is just too strong.

"Master Feng."

Taking a deep breath and slowly exhaling, the Five Elements Sect Master forced a smile again and said, "I have come to visit today only to express my apologies."

He raised his hand and took out a scroll bearing the official seal of the Xuanwu Kingdom. With a forced smile, he continued, "Regarding what happened before, I was indeed at fault. Therefore, I offer this Golden Luo Rock Mine and ten bottles of Daotai Realm Treasure Pills as an apology! I hope Sect Leader Feng will consider Elder Sect Leader Ji's feelings..."

Amidst laughter and conversation, the Five Elements Sect Master took a few more steps forward: "Moreover, Thousand Autumn Valley and the Five Elements Sect have been friends for generations..."

Although he had to swallow his anger, he felt that all the sacrifices were worthwhile.

After defeating the Duke of Wei, who was at the Yuan Dan realm, Feng Xia was undoubtedly the number one person in Xuanwu, a more intimidating figure than the imperial court. As long as he could build a good relationship with him, no price was too high!

"If it can be done, it definitely can be done... The imperial court accepted the Five Elements Sect's surrender back then, there's no reason why Thousand Autumn Valley shouldn't accept it now!"

The Five Elements Sect Master pondered to himself.

Especially since his apprentice had analyzed before he came that after a great battle, the old sword king had passed away, leaving the core strength of Qianqiu Valley weak, and they would never start a war lightly unless necessary.

That is why he brought such generous gifts, attempting to turn hostility into friendship.

"Hmm?" At this moment, Feng Xia's eyes narrowed sharply, a dangerous glint in them. "You just said... for whose sake?"

stab-

An invisible sword light pierced through the air, grazing the Five Elements Sect Master's scalp and instantly raising a large patch of broken hair!

"It's...it's naturally the old Sword King..." The Five Elements Sect trembled, forcing out a smile. "Sect Leader Feng may not know, but the old Sword King's greatest wish before his death was to unite all the sects of Canglan Mountain..."

"In that case, there's nothing more to say over there."

Feng Xia sighed deeply, her expression somewhat desolate: "You shouldn't have come."

Seeing this, the Five Elements Sect Master breathed a slight sigh of relief. Since Feng Xia had relented, it meant there was still a chance to talk again!

Lei Shao, standing next to Feng Xia, was taken aback. He opened his mouth towards Feng Xia, but after a moment's hesitation, he closed his mouth again and didn't say a word.

"So be it." Someone heard the rough man sigh in a low voice.

The next moment, the Five Elements Sect Master saw the white-robed youth raise his right hand, and a stunning sword light, unlike anything he had ever seen before, swept in, illuminating the void and then dimming everything in his sight.

In the darkness, the Five Elements Sect Master seemed to see a sword diagram slowly unfolding before him.

The picture depicts mountains and rivers, which resemble swords held in the hands of an unparalleled swordsman. With a single strike, he can slay objects, spirits, and even the Great Dao itself!

"Why--"

With a soft thud, the Five Elements Sect Master's heart was pierced by the sword's edge.

He looked down at the wound on his chest, where blood was gushing out. He desperately tried to use his magic to stop the bleeding and preserve his life force.

However, Feng Xia's sword strike contained unparalleled sword light, filled with the intent of destruction, constantly eroding his flesh and blood, preventing his injuries from healing.

In just a few breaths, the Five Elements Sect Master could clearly feel his life slipping away, and indescribable shadows pressing down from every corner. It was death descending, and the world belonging to the living was fading away.

"why?"

Feng Xia gave him a cold look, then turned her head to look at a corner of Qianqiu Valley.

Following his gaze, the Five Elements Sect Master could see a secluded purple bamboo forest, with mounds of various sizes standing within it.

Disciples of Qianqiu Valley were coming and going, erecting tombstones for the mounds.

In this catastrophic disaster, Qianqiu Valley was not entirely without casualties.

Some were killed by the rising formation at the beginning, while others were slaughtered by the powerful figures from various sects guarding the Five Elements Sealing Formation while exploring it. Still others lost their lives in the final frenzied fighting of some enemies after Mo Yuanlong's fall.

Deep within the Purple Bamboo Forest stood a slightly taller tomb, with a broken sword stuck in front of it. The sword was named: Xue Ling.

“That’s Fellow Daoist Ji’s sword.”

Feng Xia withdrew his gaze and said casually, "After that battle, I was unable to find Fellow Daoist Ji's remains, only half of his sword. Therefore, I could only erect a cenotaph for him."

"Fellow Daoist Wuxing."

As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Xia had already walked up to the Five Elements Sect Master, his gaze as cold as frost and snow: "If you do not die, how can you comfort the souls of the fallen in our sect?"

"I……"

As a flash of sword light appeared, the Five Elements Sect Master subconsciously closed his eyes.
