Chapter 26: Parting Ways
parture of the guests, there was once again a scene of flying sand and rolling stones. 。“It seems that illusions of blending reality and fantasy are more effective at deceiving both the physical eyes...“What happened in Qingzhu County The Wuyang Sect’s strength is not as good as that of the Lei Dao Sect, so why dare they attack the Lei Dao Sect” After bringing Zhou Lie and Shi Qingshan to a safe area, Lu Xiaoteng asked.
“This story is a long one, it all started about six months ago at the martial arts tournament in Pingwu County. It’s said that at the time, the Black Iron Order’s Saint Envoy disappeared while pursuing an enemy. The people behind the Black Iron Order were furious and reprimanded all the sects that had entered Pingwu County. They mobilized all the power of the martial world to search for suspicious individuals, but they found nothing. Then, two months ago, including the Four Seas Gang, even the most powerful Iron Palm Sect, were bloodwashed one after another. Rumors spread that a celestial being behind the Black Iron Order was manipulating the situation, and now it’s our Lei Dao Sect’s turn.”
"Thousands of disciples from the Lei Dao Sect were mostly killed in the siege by the Wuyang Jiao and several factions of the Qi Duo Men. I fought hard to lead these people out of the encirclement. If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid that even we would have been doomed. However, we only managed to barely survive. Now everyone in the martial world is hunting us down."
Zhou Lie's face turned ashen. The bloodbath at the Lei Dao Sect, and the rumors of cultivators behind the Black Iron Order, felt like an insurmountable mountain, pressing down on their chests, making it hard to breathe.
Sithu Yong actually set the fire on these worldly martial artists. It's truly shameless. Just the Lei Dao Men has thousands of disciples. This bloody purge will probably result in over 100,000 people dying in this chaotic melee.
"Things will work out, but your situation is very dangerous. Go deep into the mountains and hide for a while. Shi Qing Shan, come with me." At this time, Lu Xiao Tian didn't have much to say. He said a word to Shi Qing Shan and walked away alone.
"Shixiong!" The girl in white nervously pulled Shi Qingyang's sleeve.
"Don't worry, if someone had ill intentions, we would have been killed long ago." Shi QingShan patted the white-clad girl on the shoulder and followed Lu XiaTian closely, clutching his wound.

“Excuse me, Senior, what are your orders” When they reached a secluded spot, the man in black stopped. Shi Qingshan endured his injuries and bowed to Lu Xiaoteng.
“Senior Stone calls me senior, I can’t possibly live up to it.” Lu Xia Tian took off the disguise on his face and turned around.
“Xiao, Xiaotian, how is it you I thought you were eaten by wild beasts in the back mountain all those years ago. Where have you been for the past two years” Shi QingShan first looked incredibly surprised, then his face lit up with joy.
"A lot happened in between, I can't explain it in a word or two. I'm leaving Liangzhou soon. Take this healing potion, it works well. I don't know if I'll ever have a chance to come back, so save it and use it sparingly. When it's gone, it's gone."

Lu Xiaoxian took out a bottle of healing medicine from his storage bag and threw it to Shi Qingshan. He had used this healing medicine before, and it could heal injuries caused by spells very quickly. It should be even more effective against the sword wounds of ordinary martial artists. This time when he went to望月仙城, he really didn't have the confidence that he could come back again. However, no matter how difficult the path of cultivation was, he would continue to walk it steadfastly.
“What Where are you going With your current skills, is there anyone who can threaten you” Shi Qingshan asked in confusion. He had personally seen the one-eyed giant who had injured his master, being killed by Lu Xiaoteng with a single move. Such strength was beyond his imagination. Shi Qingshan couldn't think of anyone else who could kill Lu Xiaoteng, and Lu Xiaoteng had only been missing for over two years, yet he had reached such an unbelievable level.
"The world's greatest warrior isn't the limit of human beings. The person hidden behind the Black Iron Order far surpasses even a world's greatest warrior." Lu Xia Tian shook his head.
Shi Qingshan's eyes widened in disbelief, "You... you mean cultivators"
“You need only know about this, and under no circumstances should you tell anyone else. Otherwise, it will bring you misfortune.” Lu Xia Tian cautioned.
“Shixiong!” After a while, Zhou Lie, the girl in white, and others, not reassured about Shi Qingshan, came over. Seeing him, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
“Where did that expert who saved us go” Zhou Lie couldn’t help but ask.
"He had something else to attend to and left already." Shi Qing Shan sighed, praying in his heart that Lu Xia Tian would return again. Although Lu Xia Tian's skill was already beyond his comprehension, from Lu Xia Tian's expression, Shi Qing Shan could still feel his helplessness. Perhaps the fighting between cultivators was even more brutal.
“Master, this is the medicine he left behind for healing. It's very effective. Why don't you try rubbing some on”
Shi Qingshan pulled Zhou Lie aside and applied a small piece of ointment to his wound. The milky-yellow ointment seemed to work instantly, as the wound inflicted by the blade began to heal at a visible rate.
A blast of power surged from the ointment into his body. Despite being exhausted from fighting, Zhou Lie felt a surge of even stronger energy coursing through him after applying the ointment.
Zhou Lie couldn't help but let out a satisfied roar. Afterward, he looked at Shi Qing Shan in stunned disbelief. "This, what is this medicine Its effects are so astonishing."
“I don't know either, it was given to me by a senior before.” Shi Qing Shan promised Lu Xiao Tian to keep his mouth shut, including his master couldn't tell.
Zhou Lie sighed deeply, "I never thought that there would really be living corpses and holy medicines for healing flesh and bones in this world. Let's go, as the expert said, it's best not to stay here for long. We need to find a more secluded place to hide from this catastrophe in the martial arts world."
"The remnants of the Lei Dao Sect are there, kill them quickly!"
"Stop right there, you dare to run Just wait until I get my hands on you!"
The scum of the Black Horse Gang, you all die today!

At this time, the entire Qinzhu County was in chaos. Help from nearby counties also rushed to Qinzhu County to grab territory. Once the Lei Dao Sect collapsed, Qinzhu County became empty. The bloody fighting of martial artists even made the thousands of official soldiers in Qinzhu County afraid to get involved, fearing they would be caught in the crossfire.

A good number of gang members, or thugs taking advantage of the unprecedented chaos, were looting, burning, killing, and raping. Lu Xia Tian rode through Qingzhu County at a rapid pace, encountering such people and directly slaying them with his sword. Along the way, he had killed over two hundred of them.
With a deafening boom! A massive fireball shot out, blasting to death most of the thugs in the courtyard. The remaining dozen or so were covered in flames that they couldn't put out, screaming and rolling on the ground before being consumed by the fire.
A vine then shot up from the ground out of nowhere, entangling and killing several wicked warriors on the spot.
"Monster, there's a monster!"
An inextinguishable fire, and suddenly emerging man-eating grass demons, instantly plunged the county town into panic.
Lu Xia Tian removed the disguise from his face, “Whoever has the Black Iron Order in their hands, listen well. Go back and tell Si Tu Yong, I killed Si Tu Jing. If he has the guts, come to Wang Yue City and find me! Ride!”
Lu Xiaotian roared, and he and Lü Bifeng rode their horses out of the city at full speed. But just because of Situ Jing alone had caused a catastrophe in the Jianghu. However, Situ Yong was a cultivator of the fourth level of Qi refinement. He looked only two levels higher than him, but the fourth level of Qi refinement was already the middle stage of Qi refinement. Compared to cultivators at the early stage of Qi refinement, there was a qualitative advantage. Moreover, Situ Jing alone had several talismans on his body. As the patriarch, Situ Yong probably had even more magic treasures. Facing such a person in battle, Lu Xiaotian had no confidence in his heart.
“Such a reckless act! For some worldly mortals, is this worth it” Lü Bifeng was startled by Lu Xiaottian's actions. After leaving the city, she wore a stern expression and said, “Along the way, although Lu Xiaottian is young, he has always been cautious. She couldn’t understand why Lu Xiaottian would be so foolish this time, practically pushing the two of them into a fire pit.”
"I have my reasons for doing this. Whether we walk together or part ways, it's up to you." Lu Xia Tian's face was impassive, showing no emotion.
“I wanted to go to望月城 with you, but you got yourself into trouble. I’ve met 司徒勇 once, and he’s unfathomable. A cultivator at the middle stage of Qi Refining is too powerful for the two of us to handle. I can’t risk going on this adventure with you, so I must part ways.” Lü Bìfèng’s face flickered with uncertainty as she weighed her options before making a decision. With a tug on the reins, she turned her horse away from the official road and rode off in the opposite direction. In a matter of moments, she was just a small black dot disappearing into the distance.
So be it, now that he knows the direction of望月城, he can go there himself. As for how to get there specifically, he should be able to find out once he reaches 大梁國. Lü Bìfèng knew he had a 元氣丹 on him, which was a considerable fortune for a cultivator at the early stage of煉氣. Lü Bìfèng was someone he had never fully trusted. Separating now would save him some worry in the future.
Lu Xia Tian abandoned his horse and mingled into the chaotic crowd, slipping into a commoner's dwelling. He changed into a plain blue tunic worn by merchants, commandeered a donkey cart from the household, and left behind some silver coins.
After a while, a young man who seemed to be in his twenties, with an innocent and somewhat awkward appearance, looked panicked. He hurried along in a donkey cart, fleeing like a refugee alongside others seeking escape from the chaos of the martial arts world, heading west. Fierce Cloud Monster, Lu Xia Tian split a portion of his main divine consciousness and extended it into the Lingbao Cauldron's interior, analyzing the medicinal power of the spiritual materials withi...
