“Is there a problem ahead?”

Hearing Zhong Ye’s words, You Zhi and Sui Luo couldn’t help but stop in their tracks.

This time, the three individuals from the Ice Race and Evil Clans sent to the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm were all specially selected.

Sui Luo had seen Chen Fei before and could clearly recognize Chen Fei’s aura, ensuring he wouldn’t be deceived.

You Zhi could observe from a long distance, much more keenly than most in mid-stage Rule Integration Realm, and if there were any dangers, he could detect them in advance.

Among the three, the most special was probably Zhong Ye, who was cultivating under a Causality Secondary Rule that leaned not towards deduction but danger perception.

The Causality Secondary Rule had slightly weaker capabilities in direct combat, but it was uniquely outstanding in a supportive role.

Human Emperor Dao Yuefeng, relying on deduced Causality Secondary Rule, had used the Qiankun Cauldron to smash the Evil Clan’s ancestor into severe injury.

Although Zhong Ye, now at the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm, couldn’t be compared with Human Emperor Dao Yuefeng, if there were any dangers threatening his life, Zhong Ye would instantly detect them.

“Something’s odd.” Zhong Ye’s brows were tightly furrowed, as the feeling was difficult to articulate.

It was as if something was concealing his perception, placing him within a fog.

But when Zhong Ye fully activated the Causality Secondary Rule he controlled, he discovered nothing, as if it was all just his own illusion.

Sui Luo and You Zhi exchanged glances, also uncertain about the situation.

“The fluctuation from that sword blade is indeed owned by the human Chen Fei,” Sui Luo said with certainty after a focused sensation.

“There are no other humans nearby, just two on Anhua Mountain, and one of them is already at death’s door.”

You Zhi’s pupils dilated then contracted; hundreds of miles away, in You Zhi’s eyes, seemed just three feet away.

“What is the cultivation of the standing human?” Zhong Ye asked gravely.

“Mid-stage Rule Integration Realm!” You Zhi responded.

Categorizing Cultivation Realms was also You Zhi’s forte, even a late-stage Rule Integration Realm expert who had concealed his cultivation couldn’t fool his eyes.

“Good!”

After thinking for a moment, Zhong Ye nodded. He held great trust in You Zhi, a member of his own race.

The two had known each other for a thousand years and had cooperated on several missions. Every time You Zhi observed the situation, there had been no slip-ups, even when the opponents deliberately concealed their cultivation levels.

The trio continued on their way, and when they were about three hundred miles away from Anhua Mountain, You Zhi saw the human wearing a mask on the mountain peak turn his head.

You Zhi’s gaze met with the other’s and then shifted away, continuing to observe the surroundings to ensure there was no human ambush.

Zhong Ye made hand seals with his right hand, trying to deduce the source of the odd feeling he had experienced earlier.

“The three of you, have you brought the promised item?” Chen Fei, wearing a mask, looked up at You Zhi and the others, loudly saying.

“The item promised, as long as you do it, when have we ever broken our word!” Sui Luo laughed loudly.

As for things to be arranged within the human race, the Evil Clans and Ice Race had always kept their word. Otherwise, no human would risk being executed to work for them.

Breaking a promise may seem straightforward, but if it happened even once, even with a cover-up, some traces would be left, making it difficult for humans to become collaborators in the future.

“The person you want is here; please come forward and check.”

As Chen Fei spoke, his figure flashed and stopped in the sky dozens of miles from Anhua Mountain.

“It really is the human Chen Fei.”

From this distance, Sui Luo could confirm that the person lying on the mountain peak was Chen Fei.

The battle outside Jiguang City had left an indelible impression of Chen Fei on Sui Luo. “Exceptional talent” was the only phrase that could describe the innate gift shown by the other.

“Indeed, he’s only hanging on by a breath, but his cultivation seems a bit off, too weak,” You Zhi said, his gaze flickering before his brows furrowed slightly.

“Did he use forbidden techniques and shattered the fragments of rules within his body?” Without having engaged directly and still three hundred miles apart, Sui Luo couldn’t see how much cultivation the other had.

“It should be,” You Zhi nodded in agreement.

Using forbidden techniques was almost an inevitable choice for someone at the early stage of the Rule Integration Realm when facing an opponent in the mid-stage.

Zhong Ye, listening to Sui Luo’s and You Zhi’s words, never relaxed his furrowed brows, feeling something was amiss with everything in front of him, but unable to pinpoint the exact problem.

If Zhong Ye were alone, he might have turned and left.

But now, he was here on the orders of the Emperor from his clan. Without being able to explain himself and simply choosing to leave would surely result in punishment from the Emperor.

After all, as things stood, there was no human encirclement nearby, only a dying early-stage Rule Integration Realm individual and another at mid-stage; with their combined strength, the three of them truly need not worry about anything.

Zhong Ye’s finger movements inside his sleeve became quicker, the feeling of being concealed grew increasingly evident, and finally, a sensation of tearing through fog emerged within Zhong Ye’s sea of consciousness.

Zhong Ye’s gaze suddenly turned towards the direction of the masked person, as a sudden surge of danger from his soul burst forth, and the cause of the eruption stemmed entirely from this individual.

“`

This masked man wanted to kill them, and he had the full ability to execute all three.

“The situation has changed, go!”

Zhong Ye shouted, although he didn’t know why someone at the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm gave him such a strong sense of crisis, he did not hesitate.

His Causality Secondary Rule had saved Zhong Ye’s life many times before. Many situations that initially seemed incomprehensible had indeed proven to be extremely dangerous afterward.

Compared with his own life, the mission could be set aside, even if the Emperor punished him afterward, it was better than losing his life.

Upon hearing Zhong Ye’s words, Sui Luo and You Zhi were shocked, but immediately, they both erupted with their essence force and dashed back in the direction they had come from.

For Zhong Ye, Sui Luo and You Zhi had absolute trust, even though they couldn’t see the danger, their actions didn’t show the slightest hesitation.

Just now, when they were still talking, they were more than a hundred miles away from Anhua Mountain; Sui Luo and the others felt somewhat relieved that they were far away enough and also sufficiently cautious, or else they might really have stepped into some danger.

You Zhi’s gaze swept around and still found no ambushers from the human race; from beginning to end, there was only that mid-stage Rule Integration Realm figure in a mask.

At the edge of Anhua Mountain, Chen Fei watched the three from the Ice Race and Evil Clans retreat while frowning slightly.

The fragments of Causality Secondary Rule inside him were still too few; therefore, when the other party approached within a hundred miles, they were able to sense the danger.

From the moment Zhong Ye and his group had appeared, Chen Fei had detected the fluctuations of the Causality Secondary Rule.

In terms of controlling the Causality Secondary Rule, Chen Fei far surpassed Zhong Ye because the Desolate Universe God Devouring Sword contained a heritage regarding this aspect from Human Emperor Dao Yuefeng.

In control, he was far superior, but when it came to the basic fragments of rules, Chen Fei was not as good as Zhong Ye. The fragments of rules in Chen Fei’s soul were primarily based on Space Rules, and for the other twenty-two types of secondary rule fragments, he had only condensed a part of each.

As a result, when the distance between them was great enough, Chen Fei could still rely on his control to obscure Zhong Ye’s perception, but as they drew closer, this deception became increasingly difficult.

Until just now, when it came to a distance of over a hundred miles, Zhong Ye finally broke through the causality veil Chen Fei had over him.

However, having closed in to just over a hundred miles was sufficient enough for Chen Fei.

Chen Fei stepped back with his right foot and a series of delicate ripples appeared where the sole of his shoe tread; the next moment, Chen Fei had vanished from his original spot.

Desolate Universe God Devouring Sword was a comprehensive elemental power technique, which included not only moves for direct combat but also body movements that reigned supreme throughout the human race, even before the Wu Meng Clan descended upon the Black Stone Domain.

In just a moment, Chen Fei had crossed two hundred miles, and at this time, Zhong Ye’s group had only flown out a hundred miles, closing the distance between them to within a hundred miles.

Feeling the intense Vital Energy fluctuations from behind, Zhong Ye and the others instinctively looked back, just in time to see the masked figure already on their heels.

This truly startled Zhong Ye and the other two, especially Sui Luo and You Zhi.

Zhong Ye, at least in his perceptions, knew the greatest danger was actually this masked man; as for Sui Luo and You Zhi, they had some guesses but weren’t certain.

As the masked man instantly caught up from behind, Sui Luo and You Zhi’s hearts suddenly tightened.

“Don’t fight head-on, run!”

Zhong Ye left these words behind, then without any hesitation, he launched a forbidden technique and flew off in another direction, separating from Sui Luo and You Zhi.

The sense of danger within him was as if boiling his soul.

This sense of being fatal, Zhong Ye had only experienced in the presence of late-stage Rule Integration Realm powerhouses, and now, it was coming from a human at the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm.

Faced with this situation, Zhong Ye naturally did not hesitate; it was crucial to save his own life.

Zhong Ye’s actions made Sui Luo and You Zhi turn pale, wondering just how dangerous the situation was to make Zhong Ye so decisively run for his life.

Sui Luo and You Zhi manifested illusory flames around them and cast forbidden techniques at the same time.

If the masked man behind them had not shown such an exaggerated level of body movements, even if Zhong Ye used a forbidden technique, Sui Luo and You Zhi might have hesitated.

But now, with both factors combined, of course, there were no doubts left; escaping with their lives was the priority.

Sui Luo and You Zhi each chose a different direction to flee.

If they encountered a fatal danger, staying together might make them die even quicker.

On the other hand, by splitting up to escape, there might still be a chance to survive.

From behind, Chen Fei looked at Zhong Ye’s group as they used forbidden techniques to flee. His gaze shifted slightly; indeed, none who had cultivated to the mid-stage Rule Integration Realm were simple.

If it were any other mid-stage Rule Integration Realm or even late stages of the Rule Integration Realm individuals facing such a situation, they probably could at best kill two, with the third one most likely escaping.

But unfortunately for them, they encountered Chen Fei.

A dark gleam spread from Chen Fei’s body and instantly covered a hundred miles. The three fleeing figures of Zhong Ye vanished into thin air.

When they reappeared, they were in a dark space.

“Welcome to the Cangqiong Domain!”

Before Sui Luo and his group could comprehend what was happening, a voice echoed in the space.

Chen Fei appeared in front of Sui Luo’s group, took off his mask, and revealed his original face.
