"Gulp!"

As Nalan Sheng swallowed the Thousand-Year Ice Silkworm, he felt a bone-chilling cold spread throughout his body, as if it were freezing his internal organs.

Nalan Sheng dared not be careless in the slightest and immediately activated the Thunderclap Technique with all his might.

After several hours of dedicated refining, Nalan Sheng finally transformed all the extreme cold energy transformed from the thousand-year-old ice silkworm into pure battle qi.

"Rumble..."

At the same time, the surrounding天地能量 (heaven and earth energy) began to stir and began to flow into Nalan Sheng's body continuously.

The fighting spirit vortex within Nalan Sheng's body also began to rotate and compress rapidly, forcibly compressing the fighting spirit, which should have been in a gaseous state, into a liquid state.

When the speed of the Battle Cyclone reached a certain limit, the Battle Cyclone, which was originally spinning at high speed, suddenly stopped and then began to rotate in the opposite direction.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Soon, some blue-white liquid energy was flung out from the battle vortex and then merged into Nalan Sheng's limbs and bones.

With the infusion of that liquid energy, Nalan Sheng's physical strength noticeably increased by a level, as if he had been reborn.

The vortex of fighting energy reversed for more than ten minutes before gradually stopping its rotation, and Nalan Sheng's cultivation level broke through to the first-star Dou Shi.

"Hahaha……"

Feeling the battle qi within his body increase several times over, Nalan Sheng couldn't help but laugh out loud.

After briefly adjusting to his increased cultivation level, Nalan Sheng, in high spirits, pulled Wang Yuyan and the others to practice the Expansion Technique.

……

more than half a month later

Tianshan Mountains, Misty Peak.

Piaomiao Peak is not high in altitude and has no ice or snow. Instead, it is often shrouded in fog, and for half the year, the mountain's appearance cannot be clearly seen, hence the name Piaomiao Peak.

Located in a warm and humid area on the southern slope of Misty Peak, there is a cluster of buildings, which is the famous Dilingjiu Palace.

"Da da da..."

A series of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded, and then a woman in her twenties dressed in black robes appeared in the back garden of Lingjiu Palace.

This woman, named Fu Minyi, is the leader of the Yangtian Division of Lingjiu Palace and one of the confidantes of Tianshan Tonglao. She has the right to freely enter and exit the back garden.

After entering the back garden, Fu Minyi quickly scanned her surroundings and finally fixed her gaze on the little girl who was surrounded by the four maids Mei, Lan, Zhu, and Ju.

It was a little girl in red who looked only eight or nine years old, with delicate and lovely features and bright eyes.

"Your Majesty, a young girl named Azi has arrived outside the palace. She claims to be your junior brother's last disciple and says she has come to pay her respects on the dying wish of Senior Wuyazi."

Fu Minyi quickly walked to the girl in red, knelt down on one knee, and said respectfully.

"What did you say?!"

The girl in red's expression suddenly changed drastically, and she cried out in an aged voice, "Quickly, bring her to see me!"

"Yes, ma'am."

Seeing Tianshan Tonglao's excited reaction, Fu Minyi's eyes flashed with surprise, but she didn't dare to ask any more questions and quickly went to bring Azi over.

Led by Fu Minyi, A Zi, dressed in a purple dress, soon appeared before Tianshan Tonglao.

"Junior Azi greets Senior Uncle!"

Upon seeing the Heavenly Child Granny, Azi immediately stepped forward and kowtowed to her without saying a word.

"No need for formalities, please stand up and speak!"

The Heavenly Child Granny raised her small hand slightly, then focused her gaze on A Zi's right hand, or more precisely, on the Seven Treasures Ring. She was already seven or eight parts convinced of A Zi's identity.

After all, the Seven Treasures Ring is the symbol of the leader of the Free and Unfettered Sect, and Wu Yazi would not hand it over to an outsider.

"Thank you, Senior Uncle."

Upon hearing this, Azi stood up obediently.

"Girl, you said you came to see me on Wuyazi's dying wish, could it be...?"

The Heavenly Child Granny's voice trembled slightly as she spoke, "Could...could he be dead? Impossible! With his martial arts skills, how could he die if he didn't intentionally dissipate his power?"

"Uncle-Master, you don't know this, but back then, Master..."

With a sorrowful expression, Azi recounted in detail how Wuyazi was ambushed and tricked by Ding Chunqiu, falling off a cliff and becoming crippled.

"What?! That treacherous bastard who betrayed his master and ancestors truly deserves to die!!!"

Upon learning that Wu Yazi had been crippled by Ding Chunqiu decades ago, Tianshan Tonglao couldn't help but slam her hand on the tea table beside her, smashing it into a pile of wood chips.

"Guards! Go to Xingxiu Sea and bring that beast back to me! I'll make him wish he were dead!"

"Wait a minute!"

Upon hearing Tianshan Tonglao's words, Azi quickly spoke up to stop her, saying, "Uncle-Master, I know you want to avenge Master, but this is not what Master wants to see. Otherwise, Master would have already sent Senior Brother to ask you to help clean up the sect."

Before my death, my master specifically sent me to learn from you, so that he could personally cleanse my sect once I had mastered my skills.

"My junior brother is still as concerned about saving face as ever. If only he had..."

Upon hearing this, Tianshan Tonglao shook her head helplessly and said, "Fine! Since this is his last wish, let's do as he says!"

"Thank you for your help, Master Uncle."

A glint of light flashed in A Zi's eyes, and she bowed deeply to the Child Granny of Tianshan with a face full of gratitude.

"Girl, you must be tired from your journey. Take a good rest today!"

Because Tianshan Tonglao secretly loved Wuyazi, she also extended her affection to Azi, saying in an extremely kind tone, "Tomorrow I will personally teach you the unique skills of our sect. I believe that in a few months, you will be able to fully integrate the Beiming True Qi within your body and personally cleanse your master's sect."

"Um!"

Upon hearing this, Azi nodded vigorously.

"Mei Jian, take A Zi down to rest first!"

"Yes, ma'am."

Upon hearing this, Mei Jian, dressed in a pink dress, quickly led A Zi to a side hall to rest.

As night slowly fell, Azi, who was cultivating the Northern Darkness Divine Art in her room, suddenly parted her jade lips and said, "You can go back and report to the young master now. Tell him that the plan went smoothly."

As soon as Azi finished speaking, her shadow swayed slightly, and then a dark shadow separated from it, silently leaving Misty Peak.

The reason why Azi impersonated Wuyazi's closed-door disciple was mainly because she was following Nalan Sheng's orders.

Nalan Sheng's purpose in having A Zi do this was naturally to steal Xu Zhu's position as the master of Lingjiu Palace and to generate more villainous points.

Originally, this task should have been done by Wang Yuyan, but she looked too much like Li Qiushui.

If Tianshan Tonglao were to see Wang Yuyan, let alone pass on the position of Palace Master of Lingjiu Palace to Wang Yuyan, she would probably be unable to resist slapping Wang Yuyan to death.
