I flew on a sword at the magic academy

Sikong Qing immediately turned and fled. He wasn't stupid. His cultivation and realm were no match for the Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain. Even if he possessed a replica of an ultimate holy weapon, he couldn't activate it for long. If the fight continued, he would inevitably suffer a great loss.

"You scoundrel, where do you think you're going!" The Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain had already decided to kill her.

"Where are you, little brother? Hurry up and let everyone see what you got!" Sikong Qing shouted as he fled, trying to disturb the Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain's peace of mind.

Shi Daohan cursed inwardly, thinking that he should not have sneaked in during the chaos. He was now being unfairly blamed and had nowhere to seek justice.

At this moment, there were shouts of battle everywhere, and fierce fighting was taking place everywhere. She finally managed to rush to the outer area, but was pushed back again.

"Young brother, since you've even managed to get your hands on the Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain's intimate clothing, and now that the Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain is right in front of us, why don't we join forces and take her down?" Sikong Qing shouted at the top of his lungs.

The entire stone mining area of ​​Wuyang Mountain fell into a brief silence, followed by a sensation.

"The intimate clothing of Jiang Xiyu, the Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain, has been stolen?" Many bandits howled excitedly.

The cultivators of Wuyang were all dumbfounded.

"What?! The Saintess's...something was stolen?"

"The saintess is pure and virtuous; how could her intimate clothing possibly fall into the hands of others?"

"Mount Wuyang is heavily guarded; I don't believe these thieves could sneak into the Holy Maiden's palace without a sound!"

"If it wasn't stolen from the Holy Maiden's palace by sneaking into Wuyang Mountain, then it couldn't have been taken from the Holy Maiden openly, could it?"

Even during the great battle, many cultivators from Wuyang Mountain did not forget to discuss the details.

"Sikong Qing, you're trying to disturb my peace of mind, but it's no use." The cold voice of the Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain echoed through the sky.

Upon hearing this, all the cultivators of Wuyang Mountain were relieved and their doubts were dispelled.

If you think about it carefully, you'll realize that no one could silently sneak into Wuyang Mountain and steal something from the Holy Maiden's palace. It would be absurd and impossible to simply snatch it from the Holy Maiden herself.

"Young man, I know you're still here! Why don't you take out those two intimate garments and let everyone see them? Don't you want to see the pure, holy, and ethereal Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain blush with shame and feel utterly humiliated?" Sikong Qing searched around for Shi Daohan's figure.

The Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain gritted her teeth, while simultaneously scanning the surroundings with her divine sense, searching for the "little brother" that Sikong Qing had mentioned.

She was worried that her underwear had really been stolen and that the thief would show it off in public. If that really happened, she would definitely go crazy.

"Brothers, could you please keep an eye out for me? The young man traveling with us looks to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, with thin arms and legs, and delicate features..." Sikong Qing began to describe Shi Daohan's appearance.

"You son of a bitch! I've done nothing to you, enough is enough, there's really no need to push me to the brink!"

Shi Daohan had already cursed Sikong Qing a hundred times in his heart. He immediately tore off a blood-stained garment from a corpse on the ground and put it on himself. Then he smeared blood all over his face, trying to cover himself up.

However, there were people everywhere, and even when she tried to break out, some people still noticed her.

"You know what, I think I actually saw a young man just now, with thin arms and legs, and delicate skin, very similar to the boy that the Green Ghost described."

"No way? Could it be that the Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain really had her personal belongings stolen? Which way did that young man go?"

"It was just over there, but I don't know where it went now."

Sikong Qing was being chased around by the Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain when he suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure.

"Young man, I see you! In our line of work, the most important thing is to have a photographic memory. That person with a blood-stained face and blood-stained clothes is you!" Sikong Qing's voice resounded through the sky, pointing out Shi Daohan's location.

With a whoosh, all the bandits looked at Shi Daohan, who was covered in blood and whose face was covered in blood. At the same time, cultivators from Wuyang Mountain rushed over, not allowing anyone to tarnish the reputation of their holy maiden.

"Well done, young man!"

"I didn't realize you were so young, yet you're incredibly bold. You even managed to get your hands on the Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain's intimate clothing!"

"Truly, the younger generation surpasses the older; we have successors!"

A group of bearded bandits around him all gave Shi Daohan a thumbs up, praising him without reservation.

This group of people didn't actually care whether she had stolen the Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain's personal clothing; they just wanted to use this as a pretext to smear the people of Wuyang Mountain and disturb the Holy Maiden's peace of mind.

"You son of a bitch, Sikong Qing!" Shi Daohan roared, "The Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain is such a pure and virtuous woman, how dare you defile her like this? Stop spouting nonsense here!"

The Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain locked her gaze on Shi Daohan, having already added her to her kill list.

"Young man, to be honest, you're all lust and no guts. If the Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain were standing right in front of us, and we joined forces to take her down, it wouldn't just be a piece of intimate clothing; we could have her all to ourselves!"

Sikong Qing's voice echoed across the battlefield, drawing cheers from the bandits who clamored to take the Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain back to be their chieftain's wife.

"Sikong Qing, don't even think about dragging me down with you!"

Shi Daohan cursed, then said to the Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain, "I only have admiration for you, Fairy, and have never harbored any blasphemous or improper thoughts. In my heart, you are like the bright moon hanging high, a woman who embodies holiness. I will always be your most loyal believer and pursuer, Fairy, Heaven and Earth can bear witness!"

"Since that's the case, why don't we join forces and kill Sikong Qing?" A bright smile appeared on the face of the Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain.

"My strength is too weak to be of any help to you, Fairy." Shi Daohan rushed out without looking back. It was only because those bandits valued chivalry and occasionally spared their hands to help her share the burden, otherwise she would have been hacked to death on the spot by the cultivators of Wuyang Mountain.

Seeing that Shi Daohan was only concerned with escaping and showed no intention of helping, Sikong Qing shouted, "Young brother, we men in this line of work have to be loyal to each other!"

Shi Daohan ignored it; she had already reached the outer perimeter and was about to rush out of this battlefield.

Just ahead, Nangong Huang, Li Shangyun, and Qi Daozhen, three notorious bandits in the desolate state, were engaged in a fierce battle with the leader of Wuyang Mountain. The battle was so intense that the heavens and earth trembled, the sun and moon were dimmed, and terrifying energy fluctuations swept across the land like a raging flood.

The sect leader of Wuyang Mountain was surrounded by 1808 dazzling divine halos, which seemed to contain countless small worlds, making him appear as if he stood at the center of the universe.

Li Shangyun, the seventh great thief, may have the appearance of a handsome young man, but his every move exudes an invincible aura that dominates the world.

"Li Shangyun, Qi Daozhen, and Nangong Huang, these bandits are truly audacious! They want to ambush and kill the current leader of Wuyang Mountain here!" Shi Daohan was shocked.

"boom"

Just then, the sky trembled, and shouts of men and roars of beasts filled the air. One after another, chariots and figures sped out from the void, crushing the sky.

Right in the center, a large flag fluttered in the wind, bearing the two large characters: Shushan!

The people from the Shushan Immortal Alliance have arrived. They also occupy a territory outside the Immortal Spirit Ancient Domain, which is even more expansive than Wuyang Mountain.

"Fellow Daoists of Wuyang Mountain, we from Shu Mountain have come to your aid!"

Hundreds of sword cultivators charged ahead, their sharp sword energy crisscrossing the sky. Close behind them were beast cultivators and body cultivators riding on the backs of ferocious birds and beasts, with several elders in the center.

Shi Daohan was dumbfounded. Why was his own sect getting involved in this mess?!

Without thinking, she turned around and left, worried that she would be recognized.

"What bad luck!" Nangong Huang cursed.

Li Shangyun and Qi Daozhen also changed color, not expecting that Shushan would come to their aid at this time, ruining their plans.

The cultivators of Wuyang Mountain shouted in unison. They had already lost many men in the battle, and seeing such a powerful reinforcement coming to their aid in their despair naturally lifted their spirits.

"Young man..." Sikong Qing turned around to search for Shi Daohan's figure, only to find that the other party had already run away. This left him speechless, muttering to himself, "Those of us in this line of work have to be loyal to each other."

He originally wanted Shi Daohan to take out those two intimate garments and give the Shushan people a shock.

Xiang Qian's words to the Holy Maiden of Wuyang Mountain were merely a pretext, fabricated out of thin air, intended to disturb her peace of mind.

But now that people from Mount Shu have arrived, it's no longer something that's created out of nothing.

Because that "young man" actually had two personal garments belonging to Shi Daohan, the eldest disciple of the Shushan Sect Leader.

Shi Daohan fled without looking back. Her purpose in returning to China this time was to undergo trials and tribulations in the mortal world and temporarily reunite with her sect.

"boom"

A violent tremor came from behind. The battle had reached a fever pitch. The three great bandits, Qi Daozhen, Nangong Huang, and Li Shangyun, were all determined. Even if they couldn't kill the leader of Wuyang Mountain, they would at least cripple him!

The terrifying battle shockwaves engulfed the sky and the earth. Shi Daohan sped away without looking back, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

Now that she has the spirit stone, she needs to find a place to heal her internal injuries.

The desolate state, as its name suggests, is barren and desolate. The land here is reddish-brown, and there is not a trace of green vegetation or water.

Shi Daohan flew through the air for about seven or eight days, completely leaving the Immortal Spirit Ancient Domain.

Dangqing City is an ancient city built on an oasis spanning hundreds of miles. Its walls, constructed of reddish-brown boulders, exude a sense of the vicissitudes of time.

According to locals, this city has a history of over a thousand years.

Even the most ordinary cultivators have an average lifespan of at least one or two hundred years. When discussing history in the cultivation world, the figures are often in the thousands or tens of thousands, which cannot be viewed from the perspective of the mortal world.

This is one of the reasons why ancient sages created a world completely separate from the mortal realm. If they were all under the same sky, the limited land would not only restrict the cultivators' movements, but the struggles between cultivators would also affect a series of troubles such as the rise and fall of dynasties.

Instead of setting up a whole bunch of rules and regulations, it's simpler and easier to just create a separate, large world.

Dangqing City has a population of around 200,000. In the harsh and cold land of Huangzhou, it can be said to be a very luxurious city. The streets are bustling with traffic and people.

Shi Daohan felt that he still didn't have enough spirit stones, so he decided to go to a stone gambling shop to try and get a few more.

In the cultivation world, gambling on stones is similar to that in the mortal world; it involves taking out raw spiritual stones that are still covered by a stone skin and letting people try their luck.

After making some inquiries, Shi Daohan discovered that many of the powerful and influential forces had established gambling dens in this city, and immediately decided to try his luck.

Of course, she automatically ignored the jade gambling shops set up here by Wuyang Mountain and Shu Mountain.

One is his own sect, which he can't mess with, and Wuyang Mountain is even less likely to be targeted. He had just recently taken some spirit stones from their spirit stone mining area outside the Immortal Spirit Ancient Domain. If he were to mess with them now, that would be too immoral.

The reason she only thought about messing around with people and wasn't worried about being scammed was because she had absolute confidence, since the double-pupil eyeball that her true self obtained in the West was now inside her body.

Although it cannot be revived and its true divine power cannot be unleashed, it should still be sufficient to examine a few pieces of spirit stone raw materials.

"Does the Celestial Academy also have a jade gambling shop here?" Shi Daohan stopped an old man.

"Of course, the jade gambling market at the Celestial Academy is not only the best in the city for collecting tokens, but also the largest in scale," the old man replied.

Shi Daohan immediately decided to visit the jade gambling market at Tianxian Academy. This jade gambling market was located in the eastern part of the city and was a very quiet place.

"Huh, why isn't it open today?"

A large crowd had gathered outside the gambling stone market at Tianxian Academy, all discussing something.

"I heard that a fairy from the Celestial Academy has come to Dangqing City. They are all preparing to welcome her and will not open the gate until below."

"The fairies of the Celestial Academy are renowned throughout the world. The scions of those extraordinary powers and aristocratic families all consider it an honor to marry a fairy from the Celestial Academy. I wonder what this fairy's background is? Could she be the academy's saintess?"

"What are you thinking? How could a saintess from the Celestial Academy possibly come to a remote and impoverished place like ours?"

"That's not necessarily true. When they open the gates this afternoon, the academy's saintess might know immediately."

"We can meet this afternoon, but I advise against those unrealistic ideas."

……

Ultimately, Shi Daohan chose an ordinary jade gambling shop called "Ronghui".

"stop."

Shi Daohan was stopped as soon as he arrived at the door.

Several middle-aged men frowned as they looked at Shi Daohan's attire and said, "This is not a place for you."
