Purple Sun Valley.
This is a valley deep within the Purple Sun Mountain Range. Beyond the valley, there is a road leading to the Ziyang Sect, and now, after many routes have been cut off, this place has become the only path to the Ziyang Sect.
Originally a rarely visited area, Purple Sun Valley has recently become bustling with young martial artists gathering over the past few days.
With many people, disputes are inevitable. Faced with the blocking of the mysterious Hunters, many individuals in Purple Sun Valley have started to band together in small groups, forming various temporary factions that sprout up like mushrooms after rain. Among them, the most famous is undoubtedly the faction led by Song Donglai, known as the Uncrowned King of the younger generation of the Great Zhao Kingdom.
Following such a formidable figure who can sweep away numerous Heavenly Pride individuals undoubtedly increases the chances of reaching the Ziyang Sect through that only path. Consequently, many wish to join Song Donglai's faction in Purple Sun Valley, but very few can actually gain entry; most are left at the door.
Just two days ago, a sudden piece of news spread throughout Purple Sun Valley.
"Capturing Lian Yiyue alive will grant two spots for joining!"
As soon as this news broke, it hit Purple Sun Valley like a bombshell, creating huge waves.
Who is Lian Yiyue? Many would not be unfamiliar with her. The current Celestial Maiden of the Charming Immortal Sect, she is stunningly beautiful and possesses formidable strength, making her one of the outstanding figures among the younger generation. However, compared to someone like Song Donglai, she pales in comparison. Even among the so-called geniuses or Heavenly Pride individuals gathered in Purple Sun Valley, there are still many who do not fear Lian Yiyue.
Moreover, even if one person cannot defeat her, what about a group?
Thus, shortly after this news spread, many young martial artists who believed they had no hope of reaching the Ziyang Sect through the only path suddenly saw this as their lifeline.
In no time, many began to leave Purple Sun Valley, starting their search for Lian Yiyue.
……
In one part of Purple Sun Valley, three powerful presences were gathered together. If anyone were to see them, they would recognize that these three were indeed close companions of Song Donglai.
"I wonder when Senior Brother will finish his closed-door training," said one young man dressed in a long robe with an elegant demeanor.
His name is Qin Bai, another disciple from the Qixiao Sect who came to the Ziyang Sect. The senior brother he mentioned is naturally Song Donglai.
"Brother Donglai occasionally gains insights; this is a good thing. Once his closed-door training ends, his strength will surely become even greater," said a young man in a moon-white robe, who appeared quite distinguished. He then paused slightly before suddenly changing the subject and looking at the last of the three people beside him, asking, "What about Brother Azure Vine's matter... still no news?"
Shaking his head, Azure Vine's eyes flashed with a hint of malice. Two days had passed, yet they still had not received any information regarding Lian Yiyue.
"I don't believe they won't come to the Purple Sun Valley!" Azure Vine growled, his face somewhat twisted, a violent aura surging around him.
Within Fengyan City and the Fang Family, Grandma Ji's obstruction and Fang Chen's ruthless slap in the face and warning made him feel utterly trampled upon, especially since this person was someone he would have never even glanced at before. This led him to harbor hatred not only for Fang Chen but also for Lian Yiyue.
It was under such circumstances that the notice resembling a bounty had emerged two days ago.
"Them?" Qin Bai asked in confusion. "Is there more than just Lian Yiyue?"
"Of course there is. There's another fellow who is much stronger than Lian Yiyue," Azure Vine sneered. "A mere Lian Yiyue isn't worth two slots."
"Oh? Who is this person?" The young man in the moon-white robe raised an eyebrow, intrigued.
Lian Yiyue's strength was already quite impressive and comparable to theirs, yet Azure Vine mentioned that there was an even stronger presence beside him. When did such a person emerge? Moreover, this person had not been mentioned in the bounty notice previously issued by Azure Vine.
"A nameless nobody from a remote place, but with extremely formidable strength capable of slaying mid Qi Boundary warriors," Azure Vine said darkly. His expression became particularly fierce when he stated "slaying mid Qi Boundary warriors."
This was because he had personally witnessed Azure Thunder being brutally killed by Fang Chen. Although Azure Thunder was only at the early Qi Boundary level, he could already match mid Qi Boundary warriors. Since Fang Chen could kill Azure Thunder, Azure Vine believed that Fang Chen's strength must be at a level capable of slaying mid Qi Boundary warriors. As for anything beyond that, he dared not imagine.
"Slaying mid Qi Boundary warriors!" Upon hearing this, both the young man in the moon-white robe and Qin Bai were taken aback, shock evident on their faces.
With their own strength, they could only defeat early Qi Boundary warriors at best; perhaps with spiritual weapons they could barely contend with mid Qi Boundary warriors, but defeating them was absolutely impossible, let alone killing them.
"This person actually possesses such strength, and is just an unknown individual from a remote place. With someone like this beside Lian Yiyue..." Qin Bai murmured, suddenly changing his expression slightly as his gaze turned sharply towards Azure Vine.
Lian Yiyue's own strength was already formidable, and with such a powerful presence by her side, it could be said that even in the currently gathered talents of Purple Sun Valley, they could secure a place. Those who were attracted by the two spots and were still searching for Lian Yiyue to capture her would likely face a bloody battle if they clashed with these two. In such a scenario, it was likely that the ones shedding blood would not be Lian Yiyue and her companion.
After all, those drawn by these two spots generally lacked strong abilities. The combination of Mo Tong and Li Junyao could already be considered among the strongest in this context. As for those who were even stronger, they had their own pride and would not resort to actions that demeaned their status, such as only being able to survive by doing others' bidding.
"A bunch of useless fools think they can team up with my brother to head to Ziyang Sect together with us; they are truly dreaming!" Azure Vine scoffed.
From the very beginning, he had no intention of genuinely offering up these two spots, as even he did not have the authority to do so. Moreover, he only announced the intent to capture Lian Yiyue without mentioning the more powerful Fang Chen, which was a clear indication of his malicious intent.
Although he loathed Fang Chen to the core, Azure Vine had to admit Fang Chen's formidable strength and did not believe that those who could be swayed by these two spots would possess greater power than Fang Chen.
"These useless individuals may not be very strong, but they are not entirely weak either. With their numbers, they can wear down the strength of these two considerably. I want to see how much power they will have left when they arrive at Purple Sun Valley under such circumstances!" Azure Vine said coldly.
The bounty and the two spots were merely empty words from Azure Vine, a pure scheme to deceive others, and this was his true objective.
"Brother Azure Vine is impressive," Qin Bai exclaimed upon realizing this.
"Haha, what a clever plan! By then, these two will probably arrive at Purple Sun Valley already battered and bruised; if they can exert half their strength, that would be remarkable. Moreover, with so many people coming to Ziyang Sect this time, we can conveniently use these two to eliminate some competitors," Chu Zonghe said with a smile while wearing a moon-white robe.
For them, having fewer participants in the Entry Examination at Ziyang Sect was naturally better. After all, everyone would become competitors at that point; even those who seemed friendly now might stab you in the back later. If it weren't for fearing public outrage, they would have already wanted to eliminate some weaker individuals within Purple Sun Valley themselves.
"Perhaps only someone like Brother Donglai can remain unconcerned about any competition," Qin Bai sighed inwardly upon hearing Azure Vine's words.
At that moment, Azure Vine's expression suddenly changed; he flipped his palm over and a greenish-blue sound transmission jade talisman appeared in his hand. At the same time, a voice suddenly came from the talisman into his ear.
With a crunch, he crushed the talisman into powder and abruptly stood up, gazing into the distance towards the north with a sinister smile on his face.
"Finally found you all," he murmured to himself.
"Any news?" Upon seeing Azure Vine's expression, Qin Bai and Chu Zonghe immediately became interested.
Nodding, Azure Vine extended his hand, pointing in the direction he had previously gazed at, and said, "They are in a grove about ten miles from Purple Sun Valley, currently surrounded by people. It seems a great battle will soon break out."
"Should we go take a look?" Chu Zonghe asked with a smile.
Ten miles was a relatively short distance for them; they could reach it in less than a minute.
"The news will quickly spread throughout Purple Sun Valley, and more people will head there. That little grove will be completely ignited by the excited crowd. We can just wait here in Purple Sun Valley for them to come," Azure Vine sneered.
He could almost envision Fang Chen and Lian Yiyue surrounded by the crowd, fighting desperately amidst the bloodshed.
"It's truly a pity to kill someone at the mid Qi Boundary," Chu Zonghe remarked, though there was no sign of regret on his face. Instead, a cold glint flickered in his eyes as he spoke.
Although they were strangers and the one offended was only Azure Vine, this level of strength clearly posed a threat to Chu Zonghe. Seizing this opportunity to eliminate them would be something he welcomed.
