On the cold and desolate asteroid surface, a crater with a diameter of over a thousand kilometers appeared out of thin air.

Looking down from space, the oval, egg-like asteroid had a gigantic dent, as if it had been cracked like an egg.

Song Town could even see the structure of the asteroid's layers being destroyed, and it would not take long for the asteroid to crumble and break into dozens of pieces.

Gao Xuan and Qin Xuan's dual swords clashed, with most of the power impacting the other. The dispersed parts of the Sword Qi were more than the two-thousand-kilometer-diameter asteroid could bear.

If this battle had erupted in the center of Purple Wall City, half of Taiwei Star would have been blasted into ruins.

Song Town secretly rejoiced, grateful for arriving in time to hurl these two guys directly ten trillion kilometers away.

Having experienced countless battles in his life, Song Town was not surprised by the devastation caused by the fight.

A Source Power reaction of twenty million degrees naturally possessed terrifying destructive power.

What truly shocked Song Town was Gao Xuan's cultivation.

With the final sword, Gao Xuan's Sword Qi should have directly reached twenty-two million degrees.

Even though Qin Xuan had Divine Power blessing him, he could not withstand such powerful and robust Sword Qi, and was killed with one strike from Gao Xuan.

Not to mention that Gao Xuan's Sword Intent was profound, the Hongyi Sword was as deep and endless as the accumulation of a hundred rivers or a thousand seas, yet the strike was as light and agile as a feather.

In four words: strength in lightness.

This level of Swordsmanship was far superior to Qin Xuan's.

Gao Xuan killed Qin Xuan with one sword, which seemed logical to bystander Song Town, without any surprise.

Of course, Gao Xuan's Sword Artifact was indeed powerful. Song Town estimated that this Hongyi Sword increased Gao Xuan's Sword Qi power by at least 20%.

After killing Qin Xuan with one sword, Gao Xuan was completely at ease, showing no signs of exertion.

This unruffled demeanor further highlighted how effortlessly Gao Xuan managed the situation.

Gao Xuan noticed Song Town's watchful gaze, and he elegantly sheathed his sword and clasped his fists at Song Town: "Sorry to show off. It's embarrassing in front of the elder."

Song Town was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, he waved his hand: "Not at all, not at all."

Gao Xuan said: "Killing the lackey of the Evil God, delightful. I'll treat the elder to a drink."

Song Town thought for a moment and nodded, with a wave of the Wooden Ruler in his hand, the space shifted, and he and Gao Xuan were in the Cloud Mulberry Tree Hall.

It was the late night in Purple Wall City, and the Cloud Mulberry Tree Hall was abuzz with activity.

The top-floor room of the Cloud Mulberry Tree Hall already laid out a few plates of cold dishes and fruit platters.

Several chefs were busy preparing Fire Dragon dishes on site, while two elegantly attractive female service staff were setting the tableware.

Song Town's sudden appearance with Gao Xuan startled everyone present.

The mature female supervisor was the first to react, she stepped forward with an apologetic smile and said: "Honored guests, this space has been reserved. If you wish to dine, you can choose another room..."

Song Town shook his head: "We'll be here."

With that, Song Town settled into the seat of honor, and Gao Xuan, not standing on ceremony, sat on Song Town's subordinate seat, saying, "Bring out the wine, the finest century-old dragon gallbladder brew. I'm in a good mood today and want to drink some fine wine."

The female supervisor was troubled, she didn't recognize Song Town, but she did recognize Gao Xuan. After all, the champion finals had just ended, and Gao Xuan was quite recognizable. Anyone who had watched the finals would not forget.

The female supervisor reluctantly said: "Mr. Gao, this room was reserved by the president of Divine Shield Company, to host the Yuan Family of Iron Horse Star Realm... It's really inconvenient to switch for you."

Gao Xuan was the champion of the finals, holding the title of Sword King, but after all, he was just a student, not at the level of a bigwig like the president of Divine Shield Company.

The Yuan Family of Iron Horse Star Realm was an even more powerful Noble Family than the Song Family. In Taiwei Star, there were very few people who could afford to provoke them.

The female supervisor didn't want Gao Xuan to get into trouble with these people, her reminder came out of goodwill.

Gao Xuan smiled: "Thank you for the reminder. But it's this elder treating, and he insists on sitting here."

The female supervisor looked to Song Town for help.

Song Town, of course, wouldn't make things difficult for a little girl, so he waved his hand, and Song Muyang and Song Yunxi were pulled in from afar.

Suddenly appearing in the Cloud Mulberry Tree Hall, Song Yunxi and Song Muyang were both a bit bewildered. Seeing Song Town and Gao Xuan sitting there, they were even more puzzled.

"I'm treating Gao Xuan to a meal here."

Song Town instructed Song Muyang: "You settle the matter."

Although Song Muyang didn't yet understand the context, he had to carry out Song Town's words, and it was not his place to ask questions.

He told the female supervisor: "You don't need to worry about this. I'll talk to your general manager."

Song Muyang was a frequent visitor to the Cloud Mulberry Tree Hall, and the female supervisor recognized him. She dared not interfere, so she hastily bowed and retreated.

Song Muyang contacted the general manager and seized the private room. He also found it somewhat troublesome.

Divine Shield Company and the Yuan Family were not to be trifled with either. Song Muyang's unwarranted forceful seizure of a reserved room appeared more like stirring up trouble.

But on Taiwei Star, no organization dared to contend with the Song Family.

The general manager reluctantly agreed.

But just as Song Muyang ended the communication, the service staff had already guided Yuan Ancheng, Yuan Wuxian, and Rowe inside.

At the forefront was Rowe, tall and burly, with thick golden hair and beard, looking like a powerful lion. This was precisely the general manager of the Divine Shield Company.

Divine Shield Corporation was a joint venture between the Augustus and Odin families, also a famous interstellar chain company, primarily supplying various weapon armors, with mighty influence.

The power of the Odin Family has declined, gradually losing control of the Divine Shield Company. Now, they are just major shareholders. Even so, the Odin and Augustus families maintain a very close relationship.

Rove is also a Golden Powerhouse. This time, he is representing the company to host a banquet for the Yuan Family. It's unclear what kind of cooperation they might have.

The female manager saw the two parties meeting and was anxious, her face flushed, but she didn't know how to explain.

Song Muyang did not want to make it difficult for the female manager, so he stepped forward two steps and smiled at Rove: "President Luo, I'm sorry, but today I need to borrow the room you reserved."

He didn't say anything about favors. It was just a private room, and it wasn't that serious. However, to forcibly take the room the other party had reserved seemed a bit rude. He needed to offer some explanations.

Rove received a communication from the general manager at that moment. After listening for a few moments, he hung up.

Rove smiled at Song Muyang, "Elder Mr. Song is here, and this face must certainly be given."

He bowed from a distance to Song Town but said nothing.

Song Town nodded slightly. Rove was much younger than him, and their cultivation and status were far apart. He didn't need to be too polite.

Yuan Ancheng also saw Song Town and especially noticed Gao Xuan, who was seated at the lower position of Song Town.

Based on their proximity, subtle movements, and expressions, it was clear that Song Town highly valued Gao Xuan, treating him as an equal.

Song Town was nearly a thousand years old, a very traditional person who valued manners in every action and word.

Receiving Song Town's recognition, had Gao Xuan defeated Qin Xuan?

Yuan Wuxian had witnessed the fierce battle between Gao Xuan and Qin Xuan and was aware that Gao Xuan killed Qin Ken and Tifeng.

After being dispersed by Song Town, Yuan Wuxian had gone to find Yuan Ancheng, and both came directly to the banquet, unexpectedly meeting Song Town and Gao Xuan at the Cloud Mulberry Tree Hall.

The occurrence was rather coincidental but not complicated.

Yuan Ancheng observed the state of Song Town and Gao Xuan, deducing that Qin Xuan must have lost.

As to how Qin Xuan lost, it was hard to say. Perhaps Song Town secretly assisted.

However, if Song Town truly helped Gao Xuan, he shouldn't be dining openly with him.

Yuan Ancheng couldn't help glancing at Gao Xuan. Gao Xuan wasn't even looking at their group. He still harbored some doubt. This kid defeated Qin Xuan? How could that be!

Rove also noticed Gao Xuan, and his expression changed. He had just heard from Yuan Wuxian that Tifeng had been killed by Gao Xuan?

To be honest, he was half-skeptical about the news. Even though he had sensed the aura of a Golden Powerhouse's scattered Spiritual Power earlier, he wasn't sure who it was or why.

The Augustus branch has always been closely related to the Odin Family.

If they hadn't come across each other, it would have been fine. However, having encountered Gao Xuan, this matter needed to be clarified.

Rove suddenly bypassed Song Muyang, stepping forward a few steps. He first bowed apologetically to Song Town, "Sorry, Elder Mr. Song, I have an issue to discuss with Gao Xuan."

Song Town didn't mind. He nodded, indicating Rove could proceed freely.

Rove, with a solemn expression, questioned Gao Xuan, "Did you kill Tifeng?"

"Yes." Gao Xuan's reply was casual yet straightforward.

Rove was momentarily stunned; Gao Xuan's demeanor was overly arrogant. He angrily asked, "Gao Xuan, why did you kill Tifeng?"

Gao Xuan replied leisurely, "There are many reasons, but there's no need to explain them to you."

Those words were even more overbearing, prompting Rove to unconsciously grip the hilt of his sword at his waist, feeling the urge to strike.

"Kid, you're a bit too reckless!"

"I'm in a good mood right now and don't want to argue with you," Gao Xuan said. "Especially since Elder Song is here, we must show respect to Elder Song."

Rove was even more dissatisfied. If Song Town weren't here, he would have drawn his sword already. This young man, not very old, was outrageously arrogant.

Rove's surrounding Sword Qi accumulated intensely, about to reach a breaking point, when a mountain-like Sword Intent descended, completely suppressing Rove's Sword Qi and Sword Intent.

This mountain-like Sword Intent was immensely overwhelming; Rove struggled for a moment before realizing the vast disparity in their powers.

He looked angrily at Song Town: "Elder Song, why are you protecting Gao Xuan?"

"Enough people have died today as it is,"

Song Town gently shook his head and said, "Besides, I'm not protecting Gao Xuan. I just don't want to see you die here."

Upon hearing this, Rove was both shocked and doubtful. He still couldn't quite believe that Gao Xuan could kill him. But considering Song Town's status, there was no need for him to lie about such matters.

Yuan Ancheng and Yuan Wuxian were even more astonished. Song Town's words revealed so much information.

Could it be that Qin Xuan was also killed by Gao Xuan?

Song Muyang and Song Yunxi were unaware of the situation, both staring intently at Gao Xuan.

This remarkably handsome face was extremely attractive, yet at this moment, it exuded an unparalleled aura of mystery.

Gao Xuan calmly said, "Everyone doesn't need to look at me with that gaze. Qin Ken was killed by me, Tifeng was killed by me, and Qin Xuan was killed by me. Whoever wants revenge can come directly to me."

He paused for a moment and added, "I must remind all that if you draw your sword against me, be prepared to die."

These words, spoken lightly, were like a thunderbolt, causing everyone present to be alarmed and fearful.

When they looked at Gao Xuan again, their gazes carried a newfound respect and fear.
