Su Ziying’s injuries had not yet healed, and at this moment, faced with the relentless attacks of two assassins, she found it difficult to fend them off.

After a series of defensive moves, Su Ziying was forced to retreat step by step.

But these two people, one in front and one behind, almost blocked her path of retreat completely!

”It’s over...”

When Su Ziying blocked the Sword Qi of an assassin in front, she suddenly felt a chill on her back, as a blade wind approached the back of her head!

She knew she was doomed...

”Hiss...”

But in less than a second, a figure rushed in from the side, almost using a life-for-life approach, desperately blocking the blade wind from the assassin behind!

At a critical moment!

Su Ziying even felt as if she had half a foot into the Ghost Gate, her neck already sensing the coolness of the assassin’s blade!

Yet she did not die.

In that instant when Qin Tian rushed over without regard for his own life, Su Ziying was stunned.

Qin Tian, without regard for his life, protected her?

Su Ziying stood there, unable to recover from the shock, thinking, why does he risk his life to help me?

Her gaze fell on Qin Tian, seeing his eyes turned red, with the Red Sword in his hand seemingly releasing blood-colored True Qi, facing the assassins with a furious intent to kill!

Although Qin Tian did not get injured while saving her, Su Ziying was deeply moved.

Turning back, she continued to fight alongside Qin Tian.

At this moment, Qin Tian had already gathered his True Qi, once again deploying the Heavenly Thunder Formation, enveloping all six assassins!

Boom!

Rumble!

Su Ziying only heard the sound of True Qi vibrating around, but she couldn’t see Qin Tian or the six assassins.

”Qin Tian! Qin Tian!”

She looked around, flying through the woods searching for Qin Tian’s figure, but couldn’t find him, feeling a bit panicked.

Landing, she felt the aura of the formation, and only then came to her senses, saying, ”Qin Tian has cultivated a formation, yes, he must have included them in his formation... I hope he is unharmed.”

Su Ziying quickly sat down to adjust her breath, swallowed an elixir, and slowly repaired her Dantian Qi Sea injured by the True Qi shock.

Boom!

About twenty minutes later, the ground suddenly trembled!

Then, a True Qi Hurricane howled past, and a figure drifted down.

Qin Tian landed, his True Qi dispersing all around.

”Qin Tian, are you okay?”

Seeing Qin Tian appearing, Su Ziying quickly walked up, looking Qin Tian up and down, seeing that he had no injuries and his face wasn’t haggard, she relaxed a bit, saying, ”Did you kill all six of them within your formation?”

Qin Tian nodded, taking a deep breath, adjusting his breath.

Although he killed the six within the Heavenly Thunder Formation, this battle consumed him greatly; if it had gone ten more minutes, they might have broken his formation, and Qin Tian would have failed.

”You’re really formidable... I haven’t seen anyone as strong as you; I mean... just two years in and you’ve become one of the Xuanyuan Four Masters, your talent is beyond comprehension.”

Su Ziying started praising Qin Tian again.

...

After dealing with these six assassins, Qin Tian and Su Ziying became even more cautious.

However, in the following days, they didn’t encounter any more assassins sent by the Ninth Young Master.

Heading north, they killed over three hundred demons, and Qin Tian’s count of Demon Crystals surpassed a thousand.

On the last day of the elders’ agreed meeting time, Qin Tian and Su Ziying arrived at the meeting point.

By then, almost all the disciples who went out had returned, except for a few missing or killed in battle.

”Qin Tian, obtained one thousand and eighty-three Demon Crystals.”

Wow!

When the elders counted Qin Tian’s Demon Crystals, everyone was astonished.

”Oh, I thought only Brother Xia Yuhe surpassed a thousand; unexpectedly, another guy did too...”

”Tsk tsk, the key is, Brother Xia Yuhe got one thousand and eighty Demon Crystals...”

”Well, that goes to say, this Qin Tian took first place?”

”His name is Qin Tian? Which sect is he from?”

”Seems he’s a disciple of the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect.”

Indeed, Qin Tian’s achievement caused a collective gasp and made most turn their eyes toward him, recognizing him by extension.

In the Seven Great Immortal Sects, being remembered and standing out is an accomplishment.

But this time, Qin Tian remained dormant only to astonish everyone, quickly achieving first place, gaining fame among the Seven Great Immortal Sects.

However, after the last gathering in the evening, Qin Tian and Su Ziying noticed something amiss.

Because, of their sect members from Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, only two other inner sect disciples besides them had returned!

Elder Gao and Tang Zhanyun hadn’t come back at the agreed time!

”Did Mr. Shenyue really make a move against Elder Gao and Tang Zhanyun?”

Qin Tian was shocked beyond belief, thinking, Shenyue only returned to Xuanyuan Immortal Sect two years ago, does he have the strength to target both Elder Gao and Tang Zhanyun? These two are not weak in the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect!

The elder of Donghuang Immortal Sect announced Qin Tian as obtaining first place, receiving Spirit Stone rewards and an Ancient Magical Artifact.

However, this Magic Artifact didn’t seem exceptional, a bit like chicken ribs to Qin Tian; he wasn’t interested and asked the elder of Donghuang Immortal Sect, ”Elder, where has Elder Gao from Xuanyuan Immortal Sect gone? Wasn’t he with you?”

”Yes, I even want to ask you people from Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, he came to Black Abyss with us previously, stayed for a few days, then said he had private matters to handle, left Black Abyss, and we haven’t seen him until today, thought he returned to Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, hehe, a few elders complained about his departure without a word.”

That elder stared at Qin Tian, said, ”What’s the matter, you don’t know where your elder went?”

Qin Tian shook his head.

”Ha, that’s strange...” That elder was puzzled too.

Yet, as Qin Tian chatted with the elder of Donghuang Immortal Sect, he noticed that someone seemed to be casually observing him from afar, perhaps a sect elder of unknown allegiance.

”Could it be... Elder Gao was secretly killed by one of these elders?”

An intrigue arose in his heart, accompanied by a cold feeling, realizing this possibility was very high.

Given Elder Gao’s cultivation and combat power over here, only the elders from other sects might have the chance to unexpectedly ambush and kill him.

This implies Xuanyuan Shenyue secretly allied with others from different sects?
