Li Muyang honestly played the role of a newbie, asking the big shots for information about the group.

He was curious if all the members of the group were masters of immortal weapons.

Then counting the numbers... F*ck! Are there already seven immortal weapons that have appeared and recognized their masters?

In an unnoticed corner, these masters of immortal weapons had quietly formed a chat group, planning to do something big?

What are you up to?

Do you also want to capture Tailed Beasts and make the world feel pain? (TLN: Naruto)

Li Muyang, having inadvertently stumbled into this dark organization filled with big shots, felt like a Husky that had wandered into a pack of wolves.

He was different from these big shots.

The Startling Swan Immortal Sword hadn’t recognized him as its master yet, and it was only subdued by the system’s force.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t even qualify to join the group.

And these big shots in the group, each holding an ancient immortal weapon, were powerful and likely the legendary Purple Mansion cultivator.

Yan Xiaoru of the Divine Travel Realm couldn’t subdue the Startling Swan Immortal Sword, so the strength of these people in the group... just thinking about it was terrifying.

But after Li Muyang asked, the group fell silent again.

All these Purple Mansion big shots had shut up.

It wasn’t until Everlasting North Star spoke again.

【Everlasting North Star: My original question still hasn’t been answered. Is anyone under the control of the Demon Refining Sect, or nearby? I need help】

After Everlasting North Star said this, someone finally responded.

【Dangerous Star I: For safety’s sake, let’s not meet for now, and the original plan is postponed. Everlasting North Star, you should also stop contacting Blue Star III】

【Dangerous Star I: I’m currently refining a magical artifact that can seal the soul and resist corruption. Once the artifact is ready, we can meet again】

【Dangerous Star I: Or when Blue Star III is willing to show himself and meet us honestly】

【Dangerous Star I: Until then, it’s best to be cautious and protect oneself】

Dangerous Star I made a suggestion, and the others agreed.

【Heart Star VI: Seconded】

【Big Dipper Star IX: Seconded】

【Ghost Star VII: Seconded】

【Everlasting North Star: Hey! Is no one going to answer my question?】

However, after Everlasting North Star sent this message, everyone else’s avatars turned gray.

The once lively chat group was suddenly left with only Everlasting North Star.

【Everlasting North Star: ...Is this necessary? Although Blue Star III is a bit odd, he’s definitely a good person. Why are you all reacting so strongly?】

Li Muyang was also somewhat helpless.

A group of Purple Mansion big shots, scared off by him, a mere Foundation Establishment Realm small fry... it was unbelievable.

At the same time, a faint and elegant fragrance wafted past Li Muyang.

Yan Xiaoru, expressionless, appeared with her disciples.

Seeing this inner disciple who was about to reach his destination but was standing with his eyes closed and slacking off, Yan Xiaoru snorted coldly, her gaze somewhat unfriendly.

Li Muyang quickly straightened up and corrected his posture.

Only then did Yan Xiaoru withdraw her gaze and continue forward.

At the ferry port ahead, the sound of celebratory drums and cheers suddenly erupted.

After the flying boat docked, what appeared before Li Muyang and the others was a welcome ceremony prepared by the local officials of Tianjiao City.

The city lord of Tianjiao City, a man of high authority, walked at the forefront with a smiling face, approaching Yan Xiaoru and the others.

What followed was the usual exchange of pleasantries among officials.

Li Muyang had no interest in these superficial words of the fame and fortune scene.

He and his little sister stood among the crowd, curiously looking around at Tianjiao City and the local officials who had come to greet them.

In ordinary cities, Inner Sect disciples in white robes could walk around unimpeded.

But in a place like Tianjiao City, even a direct disciple like Ning Wan’er had to restrain herself.

After all, many of the officials in the city were not inferior to direct disciples in terms of rank and cultivation.

After the customary pleasantries, a guide came to lead the outer disciples from the headquarters to their lodgings for rest.

As for Li Muyang, who was now an Inner Sect disciple in a white robe, he was eligible to participate in the welcome banquet.

Amidst the lively and festive atmosphere, the group arrived at a grand and luxurious courtyard mansion in Tianjiao City to begin the feast.

Yan Xiaoru, Ning Wan’er, and other distinguished figures naturally mingled in the main hall of the banquet.

Li Muyang and the other Inner Sect white-robed disciples were arranged in a side hall, accompanied by the second-tier officials of Tianjiao City.

......

Meanwhile, in a dark and secluded place on this continent.

In a pitch-black swamp emitting a faint stench of decay, a man with his eyes open in the muck exhaled a long breath of turbid air.

His decaying and incomplete body leaned against the carcass of a massive River Dragon.

The River Dragon, at least ten thousand zhang long, was now curled up in this dark swamp, its scales on the surface already tainted black by the filth.

The man lay back in the muck, protected in the center by the curled-up River Dragon carcass.

Blood clouds lingered in the sky, occasionally splitting to release a bolt of lightning.

Yet, a faint smile appeared on the pale face of the man.

“Mother, it won’t be long now.”

He looked at the dark swamp and whispered softly, “I will fulfill your last wish and exterminate the entire Demon Refining Sect...”
