"What are you standing there for? The Third Elder has already betrayed us!"

Xue Yi was the first to react, hurriedly reminding Xia Qingxuan.

Hearing Xue Yi's words, Xia Qingxuan snapped back to reality, eyes burning even more intensely with anger!

She wasn't angry about the Third Elder and Second Elder's betrayal; she was angry about why they had to kill so many disciples of the Refining Sect?

"Xia Qingxuan, don't be stubborn. The Refining Sect no longer exists. Joining us in Zi Xiao Hall is the most sensible choice now!"

The Second Elder, seeing Xue Yi charging over, immediately turned around and shouted loudly.

"You'll die!"

Xia Qingxuan coldly shouted, and without a second thought, her longsword stabbed toward the Second Elder.

Seeing this, the Second Elder wanted to meet the strike head-on, intending to teach this obstinate junior a lesson.

Freeze!

At that moment, with a faint word drifting through the air, the Second Elder was horrified to find that his body couldn't move at all!

Watching Xia Qingxuan's longsword getting closer and closer, sweat beaded on the Second Elder's forehead.

He wasn't frightened by Xia Qingxuan's strength but was wary of the sword in her hand.

Cold Light Sword!

This was a Magic Artifact in the Refining Sect, second only to the Killing Soul Banner, personally crafted by the master of Wu Ji Zhenren, and was passed to Xia Qingxuan by Wu Ji Zhenren.

It was because of this sword that Xia Qingxuan could be invincible in battles of the same realm.

Thud!

The longsword pierced into the Second Elder's chest, the entire blade plunged into the body, and the tip emerged from his back!

Then, like an enraged lion, Xia Qingxuan frantically channeled the Immortal Essence from her body into the Cold Light Sword, which surged into the Second Elder's body.

With no power to resist, the Second Elder could only watch helplessly as the force wreaked havoc on his meridians.

Bang!

A muffled sound echoed!

The Second Elder's body exploded like a bursting balloon.

A cloud of blood mist scattered in the air, and Xia Qingxuan's white robe was completely stained red, her once exquisite face was daubed with blood.

This all happened in mere seconds; as the Third Elder and Zhang Huan reacted and tried to rescue, the Second Elder was already a cloud of blood mist, dead forever!

This...

Zhang Huan and the Third Elder exchanged glances and saw fear in each other's eyes!

How?

The Second Elder, at the same mid-stage True Immortal realm as them, killed with a single strike by Xia Qingxuan?

It's completely unscientific!

But, Xue Yi and Xia Qingxuan wouldn't give them much time to think, especially Xia Qingxuan, driven by hatred.

After slaying the Second Elder, the fire of anger in Xia Qingxuan's heart did not diminish in the slightest; she took a step sideways, and her Cold Light Sword once again lunged at the Third Elder!

She wanted to personally kill these two elders who betrayed their sect, to avenge the disciples of the Refining Sect they murdered.

On the other side, Xue Yi had arrived beside Zhang Huan, his blood-colored dagger unhesitatingly slashing at Zhang Huan's throat!

Almost instinctively, Zhang Huan and the Third Elder attempted to evade!

Yet, at that instant, a word of despair resounded at their ears!

Freeze!

They remembered, when the Second Elder was slain by Xia Qingxuan, they seemed to have heard this word too!

Watching the weapons getting closer and closer to their bodies, the two immediately understood why the Second Elder had been killed by Xia Qingxuan with a single strike.

Because, at that moment, their bodies also failed to respond to their commands, standing still, unable to move at all.

Thud!

Thud!

Two muffled sounds followed, Xia Qingxuan's Cold Light Sword and Xue Yi's blood-colored dagger claimed the lives of the Third Elder and Zhang Huan!

The battle, from start to finish, was almost a blink of an eye, taking less than a minute before it was over!

Thud!

After slaying the Third Elder, Xia Qingxuan collapsed weakly to the ground, lost in thought.

Seeing the three dead instantly, Xue Yi shook his head helplessly.

These could have been the most repressive deaths among mid-stage True Immortal cultivators!

They could only blame themselves for underestimating Bai Xiaofan too much!

Just as they prepared to counterattack or retreat, Bai Xiaofan's immobilizing spell held them in mid-air.

Had they been wary of Bai Xiaofan, they wouldn't have died so repressively!

"You're such a monster; luckily, we're friends now!"

Xue Yi turned, seriously and solemnly looked at Bai Xiaofan, giving him an assessment.

"Who said we're friends? I haven't forgotten how I ended up here!"

Bai Xiaofan raised an eyebrow slightly, teasingly looking at Xue Yi.

"A big man shouldn't be so petty! Besides, having such a beauty accompany you should be a gain!"

Xue Yi raised her chin proudly, grumbling indignantly.

"Beauty? Please, do you have a misunderstanding about the term beauty? Other than having large breasts, what else is large about you?"

Bai Xiaofan stroked his chin with one hand, pretending to be very serious, scrutinizing Xue Yi in front of him, especially lingering on her impressive chest.

"Get lost, you scoundrel!"

Seeing Bai Xiaofan's eyeing, Xue Yi flushed a rosy red with anger and smacked Bai Xiaofan, then pointed at Xia Qingxuan on the ground, asking what to do.

"Ignore her, it's something a person must go through to grow. Let's go; she'll catch up when she's ready!"

Bai Xiaofan shrugged indifferently, then waved his hand, collecting three sets of Twelve Zodiac Jade Carvings, and flew towards the distance.

Listening to Bai Xiaofan, Xue Yi nodded in vague understanding, following him away.

The two rapidly flew, soon arriving at a city.

"What should we do next?"

Entering the city, Xue Yi turned, puzzled, towards Bai Xiaofan beside her.

"Buy some herbs, use the cultivation technique bestowed by Wu Ji Zhenren, attempt to refine some elixirs, and strive to break through to the True Immortal realm soon!"

As Bai Xiaofan spoke, he walked toward the auction house.

Actually, Bai Xiaofan didn't mention that he's eager to refine elixirs not only to advance his cultivation but also to quickly find Xiao Mei and Murong Yue.

Instinct told him that the two women were in the Immortal Realm.

But, with the Immortal Realm so vast, searching by ordinary means would be like finding a needle in a haystack.
