You call this the way of the sword?

Can not remember?

Yun Sheng certainly didn't believe such words, but she didn't know why Yang Qingfeng was pretending to be stupid.

She thought for a moment and said, "Anyway, it's good that you're alright. Don't go to the Ghost King's Secret Realm these next two days. Sun Longwen is dead, and his father will definitely go crazy because of it."

Should I ask?

Would they ask who his father is?

Yun Sheng dug a small hole and pondered in her heart.

However, Yang Qingfeng replied instantly: "But I'm already in the secret realm. Does Senior Sister have any other instructions? To be honest, I'm being chased by ghost soldiers. If we talk any longer, I'll die."

Yun Sheng knew Yang Qingfeng was making things up as soon as she heard it, and couldn't help but smile slightly, her tone unconsciously a little reproachful: "I told you to wait until you're level 15 before going, but you wouldn't listen. Anyway, remember, Sun Longwen's father is a retired military officer, currently level 45. If you run into him, don't go and mess with him."

"Understood, goodbye, senior sister." Yang Qingfeng said and then hung up the communication, as if it were really urgent.

Yun Sheng pursed her lips, raised her hand and lightly tapped to dispel the teleportation mark in front of her.

This mark is the one she left on Sun Longwen.

Although Yun Sheng didn't give Sun Wenlong a second glance, she was still somewhat wary of him.

Yang Qingfeng was sent by the Pillar of State General, who specifically requested to see her, so naturally she couldn't afford to make any mistakes with her. Similarly, she wouldn't interfere with Yang Qingfeng unless absolutely necessary.

Sitting in the quiet courtyard, Yun Sheng brewed tea while pondering, feeling that Yang Qingfeng's reaction was somewhat strange.

"Playing dumb on purpose, as if trying to distance himself, but then turning around and admitting he was in the secret realm... Why?"

Whether Yang Qingfeng was capable of killing Sun Longwen was not within Yun Sheng's consideration.

In her opinion, Yang Qingfeng's ability to reach level 10 on the first day was enough to show that his combat power far exceeded that of ordinary people, and it was not surprising that he could kill people of a higher level. Moreover, Sun Longwen was only level 18 and was a good-for-nothing who had not even been admitted to the academy.

Suddenly, a foul stench swept through the courtyard.

Yun Sheng was too focused on the matter, and her attention was momentarily distracted. The murderous aura she had suppressed for years turned into black smoke and dissipated. It wasn't until the flowers and plants in the courtyard began to wither that she glanced at them indifferently, and said with a slight smile, "Well done."

"So as not to wander around in front of me."

Inside the secret realm, Yang Qingfeng searched his body but found nothing unusual.

What is certain is that Yun Sheng tampered with Sun Longwen's body, so as soon as Sun Longwen died, Yun Sheng knew about it immediately and contacted her right away.

From this, we can infer that there is probably a problem with myself, but my cultivation level is too low to see it for the time being.

Therefore, he first pretended to be stupid with Yun Sheng, trying to deceive her, and then indirectly admitted that he was the one who killed Sun Longwen, but that was just a guess.

If Yun Sheng wants to investigate, I can simply deny it to the death.

Fortunately, Yun Sheng has not made any other moves for the time being.

"Sun Longwen, it's good to have a father."

Yang Qingfeng pondered as he looked toward the stronghold.

At this moment, the 10 sword spirits had already cleared out the ghost soldiers in the stronghold and were waiting in place.

Without the little spirit swords clearing the way, their attacks on other strongholds would trigger a ghost soldier uprising.

Yang Qingfeng originally intended to play it safe and take the strongholds one by one to avoid triggering any unexpected mechanisms when the ghost soldiers rioted. But now that he had killed someone, things might change if he delayed.

Sun Longwen's father is level 45 and cannot enter the secret realm, but he can send others in to scout.

The thought that people might keep bothering me while I'm leveling up makes me a little annoyed.

"Let's get our hands on the jewelry first."

Yang Qingfeng looked at the distant mountains and quickly made up his mind.

With a thought, two sword spirits charged towards the next stronghold, while the remaining eight took to the sky and moved directly towards the core town.

In no time at all.

The attack by the two sword spirits triggered the legion's alarm mechanism.

The watchtowers and mobile sentries fired several command arrows, which exploded into dazzling fireworks amidst sharp whistling sounds. Then, war drums thundered, and the roars of tens of thousands of ghost soldiers rose simultaneously, sweeping across the entire secret realm like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing down.

The earth began to shake.

Countless ghost soldiers surged out of the stronghold, surrounding and intercepting the two sword spirits.

Yang Qingfeng waited a moment until they completely absorbed the aggro and flew this way, then remotely recalled them and released them again, so that they and the ghost soldiers faced each other from a distance, attracting the entire legion to move to the outer perimeter.

In an instant, all that could be seen was an army. Tens of thousands of ghost soldiers roared and howled as they charged outwards in dozens of columns, their momentum immense and astonishing.

Only after confirming that it was feasible did Yang Qingfeng look at the corpse at his feet.

After Sun Longwen and the others died, their cultivation space also exploded, and the things stored inside were scattered all over the ground.

Yang Qingfeng casually waved his hand, taking them all into his cultivation space without any selection. At the same time, he ordered his sword spirit to move their corpses and dump them on the path that the ghost army would inevitably take.

If the corpse is not badly mutilated, something can always be found out if it is taken out. But if it is repeatedly trampled by ghost soldiers, not only will the bones be completely destroyed, but at least it will be impossible to find out that the person died from a sword wound.

As the saying goes, everyone has their own expertise. Yang Qingfeng was relatively unfamiliar with the matter of destroying corpses and covering up evidence, so he simply left it to the Ghost Soldier Legion.

"Don't linger in the fight, just stall for time."

After giving new instructions to the two sword spirits, Yang Qingfeng summoned the Yu Jun Sword, which carried him into the sky to avoid the ghost soldier army and then flew towards the inner town.

Looking back at the surrounding area, they could see countless ghost soldiers surging up the mountain. Even with the high attributes of the two sword spirits, they could not withstand the power of the barrage of arrows. So they fought and retreated, eventually taking to the air to avoid the battle and starting to drag the monsters away on a large scale.

At that moment, the entrance to the secret realm began to flash.

After Dong Guangnian and his team finished their rest and prepared to explore the town again, they were surprised to find that the earth was shaking as soon as they teleported in. Terrifying roars were right next to them, as if death was calling.

They stared at each other in astonishment, furtively crept to the edge of the basin to peek out, and then simultaneously opened their mouths to curse, and cursed very filthyly.

Provoking a riot by ghost soldiers is one thing, but dragging the entire legion to the outermost edge and blocking all paths is another. How are others supposed to compete with that?

"There, those two were born!"

Following the direction his teammate was pointing, Dong Guangnian's eyes twitched violently.

For a fleeting moment, he was still worried about Yang Qingfeng, but when he saw the sword spirit wielding its sword light amidst tens of thousands of ghost soldiers, he understood everything.

Yang Qingfeng is not only alive and well, but also, relying on his summoned creatures, he went straight for the Ghost King!

Level 10 swordsmanship, can fly, can kill monsters above level, and even head straight for the Ghost King?

Is there any justice in this world?

Just as Dong Guangnian and the others were becoming numb, other teams entered the secret realm one after another.

Their reactions were remarkably similar: first, they were bewildered and confused, then they cautiously approached Dong Guangnian and the others, and immediately their spiritual energy was absorbed by the ghost army.

One group, dressed in Sun family attire, looked at the rioting ghost soldiers with incredibly strange expressions.

One of the team members asked in a low voice, "Does this... even need to be investigated?"

He didn't spell it out, but the matter was already quite clear.

The others immediately understood, thinking that Young Master Longwen had probably died in the ghost soldier riot, and his body had probably been stomped to pieces, so there was nothing to investigate.

Their captain, a direct descendant of the Sun family, also looked grim. However, he didn't rush to conclusions. Instead, he looked at the nearby teams and asked, "Fellow Daoists, have you seen any teams from our Sun family?"

Some of the later teams were unaware of the situation, but Dong Guangnian's teammates were always present. As the only eyewitnesses, they all shared their opinions.

"I've seen one; if we can't get in touch with it, it's probably been caught up in something."

"Not necessarily. Two of them are level 19 and the other three are level 18. Their equipment is pretty good, so they may have already made it into the core town."

"Yes, there's a special barrier in the town that cuts off communications, so it's normal that we can't get in touch."

The members of the Sun family breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, but the captain of the direct lineage looked increasingly grim, thinking that Sun Longwen's life stone was shattered, and it would be a miracle if they could even make contact.

He thought for a moment, then asked again, "Do you know who started this riot?"

Dong Guangnian's teammates couldn't answer this question, but Dong Guangnian suddenly spoke up, saying, "I don't know. It's been going on for a while now, and many teams have been involved. We've been waiting for a long time too."

After saying that, Dong Guangnian looked at his bewildered teammates and said with a wink, "Let's go, wait outside. That damn bastard, if I find out who did this, I'll kill him."

With Dong Guangnian taking the lead, the other teams, no matter how unwilling, had no choice but to retreat temporarily. In the end, only the Sun family team remained, but they also discussed how to explain things when they returned.

We have to discuss this. This guy is nowhere to be found, dead or alive. Are we supposed to send them up to fight the ghost army?

Stop kidding, their highest level is only 19...
