Like the Yihua Palace, Diancang Sect, Five Poisons Sect, and Wuliang Sword Sect in Yunzhou, Shuzhou is also home to numerous sects.

But the most famous are the Emei Sect in southern Sichuan, the Tang Clan in central Sichuan, and the Huanhua Sword Sect in northern Sichuan.

Of all these, Lianxing only needs to pay attention to the Emei Sect.

As for the Tang Clan and the Huanhua Sword Sect... even if someone in their faction has a copy of the diary, it won't be easy for them to get to Mount Emei, and they certainly won't arrive before Lianxing.

The reason is simple: Sichuan is full of high mountains and deep valleys, and the climate is unpredictable, making it very difficult to travel through mountains and rivers.

Although Yihua Palace is located in Yunzhou, it is in the northern part of Yunzhou, adjacent to southern Sichuan, making it easier to get to Emei Mountain.

That's why Yaoyue Lianxing felt it was safer to come to Emei to search for treasure.

Of course, besides the Emei Sect, we should also keep an eye on the Western Xia Kingdom.

Unlike Yunzhou, which was solely controlled by the Dali Kingdom, Shuzhou was divided among the three kingdoms.

Roughly divided by Sichuan, the Liao Dynasty was to the north, the Western Xia Dynasty to the south, and the southwestern corner of Sichuan was occupied by the Tibetan Empire.

The most famous organization in the Western Xia Kingdom was Yipintang, which was said to be full of experts, but Lianxing did not take it seriously.

But that doesn't mean she can act with impunity.

Because those who can establish a nation and set up an organization, even if they don't necessarily have celestial beings in charge, definitely possess means that can rival the combat power of celestial beings; otherwise, they simply wouldn't be able to gain a foothold.

Lianxing is only a Grandmaster now, so naturally we have to be wary of her.

Looking at the majestic and beautiful Mount Emei before her, Lianxing couldn't help but feel worried.

Now she faces the same problem as Yaoyue at the beginning: how to find the location of the secret manual in the vast mountains.

At this moment, Hua Xingnu behind her suggested, "Second Palace Master, why don't we go and investigate the Emei Sect and see what they've been up to these past few days?"

Tie Pinggu chimed in, "We're unfamiliar with this place, so why don't we just sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor?"

Upon hearing this, Lianxing's heart stirred.

She understood what the two meant.

The Emei Sect has many disciples, a significant proportion of whom are women, and among them are certainly many beautiful women.

In other words, some Emei disciples must have obtained a copy of the diary!

So, once they learn that a powerful martial art is hidden in their own territory, will they remain indifferent?

Certainly not!

They will definitely take some action.

At this point, Lianxing only needs to monitor their every move to seize the opportunity and reap the benefits.

After all, the disciples of Emei know Emei Mountain much better than they do, so finding the treasure is naturally much easier for them.

Moreover, this is within the territory of the Emei Sect. If the maids of Yihua Palace were to conduct a large-scale search here, it would certainly attract the attention of the Emei Sect, and they might even see it as a provocation.

Lianxing was not afraid of the Emei Sect, but she did not come here to fight.

With this in mind, Hua Xingnu and Tie Pinggu's suggestion is indeed the best choice.

Lianxing turned around and glanced at the two maids.

She was different from Yaoyue. Although she also had the majesty of a palace master, she was much kinder to her subordinates than Yaoyue. Therefore, the maids of Yihua Palace respected her more than they feared her.

After obtaining a copy of the diary, the two maids confessed everything directly to Lianxing.

As expected, Lianxing did not punish them for this; instead, she consulted with them on everything.

It was precisely because of this that Hua Xingnu and Tie Pinggu dared to speak out boldly.

“You’re right, it is…”

Lianxing was speaking when suddenly a loud bang came, like a mountain collapsing and the earth splitting, the heavy sound waves rolling and echoing among the peaks.

Without hesitation, Lianxing dashed off toward the source of the sound.

Hua Xingnu and Tie Pinggu exchanged a glance, then followed behind with the maids from Yihua Palace.

Lianxing's cultivation level was only slightly lower than Yaoyue's, so her lightness skill was naturally excellent, and she appeared in the mountains and fields like a ghost.

Since the source of the sound was not far away, she arrived quickly.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that a section of land had collapsed, causing the ground to cave in and groundwater to gush out.

For some unknown reason, the water was very rapid, and three people rushed out from it.

They are two men and one woman.

Both men were in their teens, and both were handsome and dignified.

The woman was also quite beautiful. Although she couldn't compare to a beauty like Lianxing, she was no less beautiful than Huaxingnu and Tiepinggu.

However, at this moment, the woman's face was pale, and she had stopped breathing, as if she had drowned.

Lianxing's gaze swept around, finally settling on the two boys, and she asked, "Who are you? What happened here?"

The two boys had already noticed Lianxing and were mesmerized by her stunning beauty. They were finally brought back to their senses when they heard her question.

Although Lianxing spoke in a normal tone, it sounded exceptionally clever and lively to the two people, as if carrying a kind of innocent childishness, making them subconsciously feel pity for her.

However, they were not ordinary people. Although they were amazed by Lianxing's beauty, they were not so blinded by lust as to foolishly reveal all their secrets.

Especially after this ordeal, they gained a deeper understanding of "femme fatale" and their resistance to beauty greatly increased.

The two exchanged a glance.

One of them, with a shrewd and clever look, said, "Young man Jiang Xiaoyu, my master is Yan Nantian!"

"The Divine Sword of the Wedding Dress, Yan Nantian?" Lianxing asked with slight surprise.

"It is indeed my master!" Jiang Xiaoyu chuckled.

Lianxing looked at Jiang Xiaoyu with a half-smile and said, "You're young, but you're quite cunning. If you think that Yan Nantian's name can intimidate me, you're sorely mistaken."

Jiang Xiaoyu's smile froze, and she asked cautiously, "May I ask how this lady is addressed?"

Lianxing didn't bother to hide it and said with a smile, "I am Lianxing."

"Lianxing, the second palace master of Yihua Palace?!" Jiang Xiaoyu's expression froze completely, her heart pounding wildly.

Although Yan Nantian, the Divine Swordsman of the Wedding Dress, is a renowned grandmaster in the martial arts world, the reputation of the Yihua Palace is even greater and more widespread, and its fierce power is said to be far-reaching. It is said that the two palace masters are both ruthless.

These two women are definitely not afraid of Yan Nantian.

He had just invoked his master's name, attempting to intimidate this woman and make her hesitate. If that angered Lianxing, then…

The thought of constantly teetering on the edge of death sent a chill down Jiang Xiaoyu's spine.

Lianxing watched Jiang Xiaoyu's face-changing skills with great interest, her smile growing wider.

Jiang Xiaoyu felt a chill run down her spine from being stared at.

He was usually shrewd and quick-witted, but now his life was in someone else's hands, and he couldn't figure out Lianxing's temperament. So, adhering to the principle of "it's better to say nothing than to be wrong," he chose to keep quiet.

Lianxing then turned to look at another seemingly timid but refined young man.

The young man met her gaze and hurriedly said, "I am Jiang Yulang, my father is Jiang Biehe, from Jingzhou. I am an unknown person and am not worthy of being called the Second Palace Master Immortal."

After saying that, Jiang Yulang raised his head and carefully looked at Lianxing's expression.

He had thought that Lianxing would look down on his identity, after all, she didn't even care about Yan Nantian, but to his surprise, Lianxing's reaction was unexpectedly strong.

"Are you Jiang Biehe's son?"

As he spoke, a chilling aura enveloped Jiang Yulang.

Lianxing reached out and grabbed Jiang Yulang with her Mingyu True Qi, binding him from a distance as if she wanted to capture him in her palm.

Jiang Yulang felt a jolt of alarm bells going off in his head, his face filled with terror and horror, and his body was pulled toward him uncontrollably.

However, just as Lianxing was about to grab him, Jiang Yulang's eyes hardened, and a small golden cylinder appeared from his sleeve.

At the same time, an urgent voice rang out: "Be careful! That's the 'Heaven-Shattering, Earth-Destroying, Bone-Piercing Heart-Piercing Needle'!"

050 Five Supreme Skills

Jiang Xiaoyu's reminder came too late.

As he spoke, Jiang Yulang had already pressed the button.

In an instant, Lianxing felt a blur before her eyes, and hundreds of silver needles as thin as ox hairs shot towards her like a sudden storm!

The two sides were extremely close. Just a moment ago, Jiang Yulang was harmless, but suddenly he bared his fangs and unleashed such a terrifying weapon, which was truly unexpected by Lianxing.

In desperation, she could only subconsciously release her true energy with all her might to form an invisible barrier to protect her body.

However, those silver needles were truly extraordinary; they were not only swift, fierce, dense, and rapid, but they even had the effect of breaking through qi!

The barrier formed by Mingyu's true energy only blocked nearly a hundred silver needles, while the remaining twenty or so continued to shoot towards Lianxing.

At this point, it was too late to dodge!

Jiang Yulang's eyes were filled with tension and excitement. Little did he know that the silver needles in that small cylinder were coated with deadly poison!

As long as one of the stars in her destiny is connected to her, no matter what her identity is, as long as she is not a celestial being, she will surely die!

Just as Lianxing was about to be hit, at this critical moment, a light shield was erected, completely enveloping her and protecting her from all sides.

The silver needle landed on the protective shield but didn't penetrate even a fraction of an inch, falling directly to the ground.
