"It's not like that at all!" thought Li Zhenchuan. This young master surely hailed from a wealthy family and lacked serious Jianghu experience, as he couldn't even see the imminent danger, "That man is a disciple of the Sword Immortal. The events of today are beyond repair. His master will surely seek vengeance for him, and when that time comes, we will all perish by the hands of the Sword Immortal!"

In the midst of speaking, Wang Mao, brandishing his sword, forced Bai Qi into continuous peril. Li Zhenchuan simply told Shi Feiyang to quickly leave and then leaped forward to attack Wang Mao from behind.

Wang Mao felt the formidable power of Li Zhenchuan's palm strike and hurriedly swung his sword to counter, loudly exclaiming, "We are having a fair duel today. Are you all planning to gang up on me?"

Bai Qi, already wounded with a gash on his thigh from the Immortal Slaying Sword, knew he would perish at the hands of Wang Mao if Li Zhenchuan didn't step in soon and hurriedly said, "You first seized young master Tao's Immortal Slaying Sword. Where's the fairness in that!"

At that moment, Dai Hengyu, Dai Xiangying, Ling Yunfeng, Yu Yunzhong, and Xu Chao, all five of them, drew their weapons and charged forward, surrounding Wang Mao in the center.

Wang Mao laughed wildly, "Even if you all come at me together, what difference will it make? I'll just kill you all!"

His swords in both hands slashed forward, and in the blink of an eye, he chopped four swords and a spear into several pieces.

In the nick of time, Yu Yunzhong pushed Ling Yunfeng away, standing in his place, about to be cut down, only to be kicked away by Li Zhenchuan. He ended up with a foot-long, inch-deep gash across his chest from the Immortal Slaying Sword.

Ling Yunfeng, having been pushed in front of Shi Feiyang, fell to the ground and asked him, "Aren't you going to help?"

Shi Feiyang was a bit displeased, "Why should I help?"

Biting her lip, Ling Yunfeng said, "Even if we have only met by chance, that would be fine, but won't you help even your own disciple?"

Shi Feiyang laughed, "He has just renounced our master-disciple relationship. Sigh, if he's hellbent on seeking death, what can I do?"

"You truly have a heart of stone! I misjudged you!" Ling Yunfeng stood up and went over to help Yu Yunzhong, who was lying on the ground face up.

Shi Feiyang ignored her and just watched Li Zhenchuan and Bai Qi team up against Wang Mao. Their martial arts skills were far beyond others, and even at a distinct disadvantage in terms of weaponry, they still managed to fight back.

But Wang Mao's martial arts were also remarkable. Utilizing the Immortal Slaying Sword to strike forward and slash behind, he created streams of red light, forcing the two to keep their distance. Despite attempting several times to attack from the flank or rush in for a close fight, they were driven back, with Bai Qi receiving yet another stab to his shoulder.

Shi Feiyang sighed and shouted, "Disciple, come back and try with this sword of mine."

By calling out to his disciple in public, he had firmly established their master-disciple relationship. Everyone's gaze turned to him, those who hadn't witnessed the formal initiation were baffled, wondering how such a young noble could possibly be Li Zhenchuan's master. Could his martial arts skill be greater than Li Zhenchuan's?

Li Zhenchuan, somewhat resigned, made his way back, "Master, the Immortal Slaying Sword is incomparably sharp, why waste another treasure sword?"

"Just try it. If it gets chopped up, I'll be happy. We can buy another one later."

Li Zhenchuan, feeling as if he had nothing to lose, accepted the sword and once again engaged Wang Mao. Initially, he hesitated to clash with the Immortal Slaying Sword, but when they inadvertently made contact, there was a crisp ringing, sparks flew, and to his shock and delight, the sword did not break. There wasn't even a nick on the blade after repeatedly clashing with the Immortal Slaying Sword.

Not only was he astonished, but all the spectators were also amazed. They thought the ornate sword, decorated with gold and silver, appeared to be nothing more than a fancy plaything for wealthy children. How could it possibly withstand the Immortal Slaying Sword's blows? If he had such a sword, why would he bother fighting over the Immortal Slaying Sword?

Everyone was curious about Shi Feiyang, but when they looked again, Shi Feiyang had disappeared, even the people standing next to him were baffled as to how such a large person could vanish so suddenly.

In fact, Shi Feiyang had by then caught the true trace of the Heavenly Demon Immortal Slaying Sword. He stealthily left and began setting up an Array, certain that the Heavenly Demon Immortal Slaying Sword had arrived at Tian Dou Peak. To prevent it from escaping underground, he first let the Taiyin Earth Net infiltrate the ground, cutting off the earth's veins below.

Li Zhenchuan, now without a disadvantage in his weaponry, fought more fiercely. First, he chopped off Wang Mao's original treasure sword and continued to strike the Immortal Slaying Sword vigorously, with sparks flying in all directions.

"Ding ding! Ding ding! Ding... clang!"

The last clear ring sounded as the Immortal Slaying Sword snapped into two.

Everyone was dumbstruck, staring at the half of the blade that had fallen to the ground.

The first thought that came to everyone's mind was "The sword is fake," but remembering how Xiao, the great hero, along with his men, had been cleaved into four parts by the sword earlier, they were certain the sword couldn't be fake.

Then everyone's gaze shifted to the showy sword in Li Zhenchuan's hand, wondering: Could it be that this sword was even more formidable than the Immortal Slaying Sword?

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

Despite racking their brains, no one could understand the reason behind it.

Someone asked, "The Immortal Slaying Sword has broken. Do we still compete for the sword?"

Another replied, "With the sword broken, what's there to compete for? Even the best broken sword is useless. Why not, let's compete for the one from the one who dominates eastern Sichuan?"

Li Zhenchuan, brandishing his sword, cried out furiously, "Who dares to covet my master's sword? Step forward if you wish to die!"

While the group was chattering, Shi Feiyang had already stealthily made his way to various parts of Tian Dou Peak to set up the Array. He had ascertained that the Heavenly Demon Immortal Slaying Sword had indeed arrived at Tian Dou Peak. In order to prevent it from escaping through the underground tunnels, he first let the Taiyin Earth Net seep into the ground, effectively severing the underground earth veins.
