The woman in palace dress leading the charge on the green flying boat is Liu Xingfeng, one of the three great foundation-building cultivators in the Feiyun Guard of Guiyunfang.
Liu Xingfeng frowned and stared at Yang Wuqi in the black fog in the distance. She was still holding a green flying sword tightly in her hand. The green light that just saved Lu Yunfei was from the sword light of this second-level flying sword in her hand. At this moment, the spiritual light on the flying sword had not dissipated yet, and the momentum on the sword body was even undiminished.
"You are Yang Wuqi, the Soul-Changing Bell. Senior Brother Xuanxin has been tracking you for years but couldn't find you. He thought you had already escaped from Wei State. I didn't expect you to be so audacious as to hide here. It seems you are doomed today."
Looking at the red bell in Yang Wuqi's hand, Liu Xingfeng thought for a moment and quickly recognized Yang Wuqi's background. Seeing that this old demon was hiding in the Floating Cloud Mountains right under her nose, she couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
As the leader of Song Qingming's Feiyun Guard team, Liu Xingfeng had already explored this area a few months ago. However, at that time, she was mainly exploring the territories of those second-level monsters from the air and did not notice the cave of Yang Wuqi and others at the foot of the mountain.
Otherwise, if she had discovered the existence of this group of evil cultivators earlier, she would not be the only Foundation Establishment cultivator coming here today to deal with Yang Wuqi.
Liu Xingfeng's cultivation level was only the fourth level of Foundation Establishment. As she was the only Foundation Establishment cultivator, it was somewhat difficult for her to kill Yang Wuqi. It was also difficult for other Qi Refining cultivators to intervene in a battle of their level. In fact, she did not have much confidence in her heart that she could stop Yang Wuqi, the old devil of the fifth level of Foundation Establishment, here.
"You're doomed, huh. You're so arrogant, little brat. I'll settle accounts with that old bastard Chen Xuanxin sooner or later."
After the incident involving Yang Wuqi, he was quickly put on the wanted list of the Xiaoyao Sect in Weiguo. The Xiaoyao Sect even specially sent a cultivator at the eighth level of foundation building, Chen Xuanxin, to deal with this person.
Chen Xuanxin is a veteran foundation-building cultivator of the Xiaoyao Sect. His magical powers are far superior to those of Yang Wuqi back then. After Yang Wuqi escaped from Donglin County, he was accidentally tracked down by Chen Xuanxin twice and almost died at his hands.
Fortunately, Yang Wuqi had some special life-saving methods. Although he was injured by Chen Xuanxin and fled in embarrassment in both fights, Chen Xuanxin was unable to seize the opportunity to keep him.
When Yang Wuqi heard Liu Xingfeng say Chen Xuanxin's name, a hint of anger appeared on his face. He had encountered Chen Xuanxin twice. Although he escaped with his life, many of his disciples died under Chen Xuanxin's sword. A magic weapon that he had treasured for many years was also destroyed in this person's hands. This name was a deep hatred for him.
He was refining this magic sword in the Floating Cloud Mountains in order to seek revenge on this person in the future. As long as he could successfully refine the magic sword and have the help of this magic weapon, Yang Wuqi thought that if he met Chen Xuanxin again, he would not have to flee like he did before, and he might even have a chance to avenge his previous humiliation.
However, his magic sword has not been completely refined yet, and he has encountered some bad luck and misfortunes, which has attracted the foundation-building monks of Xiaoyao Sect. He really has a lot of grievances.
After meeting Liu Xingfeng, Yang Wuqi secretly sent a message to Gu Liangshan and other disciples below, asking them to seize the opportunity to escape.
He was a person who valued his life, and now he didn't know whether there were other foundation-building cultivators following Liu Xingfeng. Since his whereabouts had been exposed, he could only give up this cave for the time being. When his magic sword was fully developed, he would come back to seek revenge on these Xiaoyao Sect cultivators.
"Old Demon Yang, I won't bother Senior Brother Chen today. Let me test your magical powers first."
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Xingfeng once again summoned the second-level flying sword in his hand. The flying sword instantly became several feet in size in the air and slashed down towards Yang Wuqi in the black fog.
Yang Wuqi saw the flying sword coming from the sky and laughed calmly: "Haha, if you want to test my magical power, then I have to see if you have the ability."
The black fog surged, and two giant skeleton hands, larger than the previous ones, emerged and firmly caught Liu Xingfeng's green flying sword in the air.
The two foundation-building monks fought each other, and soon bursts of terrifying air waves erupted, scaring the Qi-refining monks below and forcing them to quickly leave the area far away to avoid being accidentally injured by their fight.
The two people brought by Liu Xingfeng are also her direct disciples, and both of them have reached the late stage of Qi Refining.
Seeing that the master and the foundation-building demon cultivator were already fighting, the two men realized that they could not help, so they hurriedly helped Lu Yunfei, who was injured not far below, to a farther place.
"Senior Brother Lu, take some healing pills quickly." One of the women in yellow took out two yellow pills and placed them in Lu Yunfei's hands.
"Thank you very much, Junior Sister Gao." Lu Yunfei was not polite. He took the pill from the woman in yellow and swallowed it quickly. He was seriously injured and coughed from time to time while speaking.
After taking the pill, although Lu Yunfei was still very weak, his complexion quickly improved.
Seeing that Lu Yunfei had already begun to heal his wounds, the other woman in red said to the woman in yellow, "Junior Sister, you stay here to look after Senior Brother Lu. I'll go help deal with those demon cultivators."
After saying that, the woman in red took out the magic weapon on her body and rushed towards Song Qingming who was fighting not far away.
Song Qingming and others who were fighting against the demon cultivators in the rear had been attacked by Yang Wuqi with the Soul-Confusing Bell and had been injured. They were already in a tough battle and had several of their companions killed by Gu Liangshan and others.
As soon as Gu Liangshan and his men received the message that Yang Wuqi was retreating, they quickly abandoned Song Qingming and the others and fled in all directions.
Song Qingming and his group were already at a disadvantage and had no power to stop Gu Liangshan and the others. When the woman in red rushed to Song Qingming and the others, she saw that Gu Liangshan and the others had all escaped successfully, and she couldn't help but sigh.
"Young man, I won't play with you for now. I've made note of what happened today."
Yang Wuqi saw that Gu Liangshan and others had retreated, so he put away the magic weapon in the air and quickly retreated out of the mountain.
Seeing that Yang Wuqi wanted to escape, Liu Xingfeng didn't want to let him go easily, so she stepped on the flying boat and chased after him.
After the two foundation-building monks left, the battle at the altar was over. The woman in red brought Song Qingming and others and quickly reunited with Lu Yunfei and others.
After the battle, except for the two women who followed Liu Xingfeng to provide support, almost all the survivors were injured, and some of the seriously injured were still in coma.
After everyone took stock, they found that out of the thirteen cultivators who came, five were killed on the spot, and three people including Lu Yunfei were seriously injured. Almost half of the people were lost. After returning this time, it seemed that their team of Feiyun Guards would not be able to come out to carry out missions in a short time.
Seven demon cultivators were also killed, and the rest escaped. It can be said that both sides suffered heavy losses in this battle.
Song Qingming did not expect that the situation would change so quickly. Today's battle with this group of demonic cultivators could be said to be full of twists and turns. They originally thought it was a battle between Qi-refining cultivators, but in a short period of time it turned into a fight between Foundation Establishment cultivators.
These Qi-refining cultivators were really vulnerable in the hands of the Foundation-building cultivators. Song Qingming finally realized how big the difference was between Qi-refining cultivators and Foundation-building cultivators.
After walking to Lu Yunfei's side, Song Qingming saw the woman in yellow guarding Lu Yunfei, and couldn't help but look surprised. This familiar and pretty figure was Gao Yuyao, who had traded elixirs with Song Qingming several times in Caolu Mountain a few years ago.
