“We shall follow brother Zhuo’s order to the letter!” Wu Qingqiu replied on the spot, “The question now is when?”

“Immediately. Even if we’re in the Sea Bright Sect, war will be coming soon and it will no longer be safe. I hope to get Qingcheng out as soon as possible.”

“Sure, we will go right now.” Wu Qingqiu and the others bowed, “Brother Zhuo, take care.”

“Take care.”

Zhuo Fan cupped his hand as they took Chu Qingcheng away. But she shot her hand to clutch Zhuo Fan’s, her grip strong.

Zhuo Fan’s eyes shook with hope, “Qingcheng, you’re awake… ugh…”

But those empty eyes reflected his downcast face.

“Zhuo Fan, it’s just Qingcheng’s instinct. She’ll need more time for her mind to recover.” Shui Ruohua sighed and spoke morosely. She then took Chu Qingcheng’s hand to leave, but the grip on Zhuo Fan’s hand only tightened, her fingers digging into his skin and drawing blood.

Zhuo Fan didn’t even register the pain, his gaze always on Chu Qingcheng as he spoke in a heavy tone, “Qingcheng, I’m doing this to keep you safe. I will come back to you, I promise!”

Chu Qingcheng shook, but it was clear Zhuo Fan’s promise eased her heart as her grip eased. Shui Ruohua quickly took her hand back.

The others finally relaxed and bowed to Zhuo Fan once more before leaving with Chu Qingcheng.

Ye Lin had vowed again and again that he would definitely make sure sister-in-law would be safe and sound.

Zhuo Fan smiled, feeling relieved to leave her in their care, having complete trust in them for already looking after Chu Qingcheng for the past five years.

Zhuo Fan gazed at the sky, and noticed dawn was just around the corner.

Zhuo Fan said, “Everything’s ready, Qiao’er. Let’s go as well.”

“Where?”

“North Sea!” Zhuo Fan’s gaze was set.

Qiao’er asked, “Father, aren’t you leading the four land alliance? What are they going to do in case of an incident?”

“Let those clowns deal with it.”

Zhuo Fan’s eyes shone and smirked, “When two fight, the third party wins in this stalemate. Central area and the four lands are of similar strength. They would kill until they dye the skies red and cover the earth in corpses, with neither side coming on top. When we return from the North Sea, we will find the world has changed overnight. Our power will also expand in these circumstances, patching up our way to the top once more, ha-ha-ha…”

Zhuo Fan flew towards the North Sea shore, with Qiao’er smiling behind him.

In the glorious light of a new day’s dawn, the father and daughter began their journey. What of the Sea Bright Sect’s barrier one might ask? Nothing of it since Zhuo Fan’s apocalyptic thunderflame could poke a hole in it. Especially since the Heaven Sealing Sword was conveniently removed, making the barrier so much weaker. It was simply a joke for a man of his caliber.

While they were out hiking, the same joke, it would seem, applied to one other person, far better than to Zhuo Fan.

Rumble~

Thunder cracked the sky as purple lightning exploded in thousand branches. The barrier of Sea Bright Sect cracked like eggshells, bringing fresh sea air into the sect, or maybe doom.

The purple lightning formed thousands of swords waved up above, looming dangerously over the sect. Even Genesis Stage experts felt numb under this sea of purple. Their breaths faltered and their immense Yuan Qi slowed down to a trickle.

Mere pressure was enough to bring the sect to its knees, such was the power of the purple curtain.

The leaders of the four lands came out to see what was all the ruckus to gasp in fear and despair, “I-Invincible Sword is here!”

“Invincible Sword now?”

Murong Xue glanced at the purple attack hanging above him and gasped, “Is this the effect of Invincible Sword’s attacks? It’s so much more terrifying than my brother’s! How is he still human?”

Murong Lie gripped the golden burning longsword but his brow was soaked, “Invincible Sword is no human, or he wouldn’t be anything great, humph!”

The others gave a weak nod, with some even faltering back.

Such was the might of Invincible Sword, dreading his coming before even meeting him. Not even the highest power in other lands could fight the fear.

Boom~

Explosions rang everywhere, followed by savage winds and wails of demise throughout the Sea Bright Sect. Blood sprayed so high it reached the heavens, mixing with the purple lightning and turning the world of mortals into a hellscape. It sapped any bit of courage one might have. The winds then made sure to bring the stench of blood to every corner of the sect, completing the carnage.

“Sect Leader, Invincible Sword has come with five Sword Kings and ten disciples! He broke the barrier and is slaughtering us!”

Whoosh~

A bloody elder arrived in a panic, howling with grief, “We’ve already lost tens of thousands of experts! Please save us, Sect Leader!”

Ling Yuntian was distressed as well, turning to the others, “Lingtian, Murong Clan Head, Exalted Double Dragons and everyone else, we set ourselves on killing the old monster with numbers and now he came to us himself. We’ll do as Sir Zhuo planned. We’ll go meet him and stall for two and a half lands’ worth of men to come from the frontlines so we can finish this!”

“Yes!”

The other cupped their hands, though hesitation dominated still.

Talking was one thing, while putting it into action was another.

Ling Yuntian didn’t look too confident in this joint slaughter, turning to Murong Xue, “Miss Murong…”

“Sect Leader Ling, I’ll do everything in my power, whatever it may be!”

“Then go look for Sir Zhuo and ask him what to do now that the Invincible Sword is here.”

“Go ask him?” Murong Xue’s face fell.

Murong Lie glared at her and snapped, “Xue’er, there’s no time to argue! We need Sir Zhuo’s cunning tactics. We’d go ourselves but we need to go join the fight. Stop being a child and do this for the sake of everyone else!”

Murong Xue huffed and grumbled but she knew her priorities and flew for the Main Hall.

As for the leaders, they shot in frantic haste at the devastation with a grave expression.

Whoosh~

Murong Lie, Ouyang Lingtian and the rest soon met with sixteen people walking without a care.

In front were the five Sword Kings, looking icy as they dolled out death, uncaring and unfeeling.

Be it a building, barrier, or some venerable coming to stop them, they all replied the same way, flicking their hand and sending thunderous explosions that tore everything to pieces.

All while their casual trek through the enemy base went undisturbed, like they were a bulldozer.

Behind them was a tall elderly, imposing and confident, looking down on the world with none wanting to get near him. He acted like he was on top of the world. The only option was join him or perish.

Even the mighty Sword Kings were giving him ample respect and did his bidding.

It was none other than the best of the best, the Invincible Sword.

Behind him further were ten juniors, who came out on a sightseeing trip to see the world, keeping their heads low behind the old man and doing nothing else.

Not like they needed to, since the path was being cleared with terrifying efficiency
