“Ridiculous. He was clearly the one who controlled the flood dragon to attack our village’s guardian spirit.” Shi Hao retorted when he heard this.

“Weren’t you looking properly? Our cultivation prodigy was simply flying his flood dragon over your village. He wasn’t attacking you. Do you really expect us to believe that your guardian spirit had acted on its own accord without any commands from you? And it attacked a child too! If you ask me, I’d say that your guardian spirit is actually an evil demon!”

A gentle breeze blew and the willow tree’s branch swayed with the passing wind. Everyone felt a shiver down their spine and shuddered.

But nothing happened.

The people from Luofu Tribe immediately felt relieved. They quickly told their people to prepare to attack.

Huang Fenyun stared at the strangers before him. He knew that there was no way to avoid today’s battle. But why had Stone Village been so unlucky these days? They had been encountering one strange and dangerous thing to the next.

He simply hoped that the guardian spirit could protect him and defeat this group of people.

The old man next to the girl held her hand. When the people of Luofu Tribe wanted to act, the old man also made his decision. He told his team that it was better to leave Stone Village.

“Attack!”

The command came and the experts from Luofu Tribe jumped on Stone Village’s cultivators. For a moment, runic lights appeared and it was obvious their attacks would be fatal.

The people of Thunder Tribe and Luofu Tribe had always been arrogant. Even though they had already witnessed the Stone Village’s guardian spirit’s ability, they still believed that they could win this battle.

They even wanted to show off their use of the Bone Text energy to the Stone Village residents. They were that confident. After all, they were experts from large tribes and had destroyed countless villages. Why would they lose today?

Huang Yunfeng, Huang Linhu, and the others also braced themselves for the impending battle. Shi Hao’s eyes were filled with flames of hatred. He simply could not understand.

It was clear that the people of Stone Village were kind and simple. They had never stirred up trouble with any village, so why were these people targeting them?

Suddenly, there was a change in the Qi flow in the atmosphere. Shi Hao was dumbstruck because this Qi flow that had just started was very familiar to him.

The villagers of Stone Village felt it too and immediately recalled the sword Qi that killed Suan Ni and Wolf Village’s guardian spirit. These events had been so deeply engraved into their memories that there was no way they would forget about them anytime soon.

And just like they had remembered it, the sword Qi shot out of the ground, almost as if from a random location, and went straight into the sky. It brimmed with the same brilliant bright light as the ground shook from its sudden appearance.

The Stone Village’s houses that had just been rebuilt not long ago were destroyed once more but by the sword Qi this time. Stone Village was filled with the familiar turbulent Qi flow,

The divine sword descended, bringing with it an endless stream of cold air. Even in the middle of summer, everyone felt a chill run down their spines, as if they were in a world of ice and snow.

“Damn, just what kind of treasure is this to actually possess such a terrifying ability and presence?” The experts of Luofu Tribe turned pale with shock. They had initially thought that the willow tree guardian spirit was terrifying enough.

Who the hell could have guessed that such a terrifying magical treasure was hidden in this mountain village? Or at least what they thought was the village’s magical treasure and not a sword Qi that had a completely different origin.

The members of Thunder Tribe were enraptured by the divine sword wrapped in lightning in the sky. Even though they felt a little terrified, it soon turned into excitement as they thought, ‘ If we could obtain such a powerful treasure, it would be a great merit to our tribe.’

The divine sword swept across the sky before its sharp blade pointed straight at the ground. It hovered in the air, slowly swaying as if it would fall at the next second.

The immaterial sword Qi was so sharp that everyone felt the threat in their souls.

Elsewhere, the other team who were from Cloud Palace and had decided not to participate in the battle had also noticed the divine sword. They were dumbfounded. Even if they were not in Stone Village, they could still sense its destructive power.

“Uncle is smart. I agree that we shouldn’t attack a village so rashly,” said the girl standing beside the old man.

“This village isn’t what it seems. The guardian spirit at their entrance isn’t an ordinary guardian spirit either. The flood dragon is quite a terrifying creature in the continent but it was easily restrained by a willow tree branch before having all its vitality absorbed and turned into nothing. The guardian spirit’s potential should have been obvious based on its history as a tree that had once been charred by lightning yet still grew an evergreen branch, thus containing vitality. It’s truly extraordinary,” said the old man.

“You’re right. Moreover, look at that child, the one who slapped Luofu Tribe’s cultivation prodigy. He had quite an exquisite appearance with his porcelain doll-like face and astonishing abilities. He must be the village’s cultivation prodigy. The other cultivators also seemed to have undergone body tempering – their physiques are quite impressive,” said the girl as she shared her opinions.

The girl had been captivated by Shi Hao the moment she arrived at the village. Just looking at him made her heart skip a beat.

As the two were conversing, the divine sword started to change its tactics.

The divine sword let out a hum and its sword Qi continued to spread out – a storm started to form. The people present stared at the growing hurricane, unable to keep their eyes open long.

The old man started to feel that it was getting hard to stand on his feet and he quickly pulled the girl under him to protect her.

The pressure from the divine sword pressed down on the cultivators of Thunder Tribe and Luofu Tribe until they vomited blood. A portion of those who were not strong enough had already knelt on the ground.

“Damn, Village Chief… This divine sword is exactly the same as the one before…” Huang Linhu was shocked, not knowing how to continue.

The sword Qi that killed Suan Ni was indeed from their village!

That must mean that there were experts in their village!

Shi Hao stared at the divine sword in the air with his pair of clear eyes in shock.

Ye Yun looked at the expressions of the strangers and nodded. He did not plan on killing them quickly. He wanted to prolong their agony as long as possible and see if they would let out any clues.

Or they could just give him the treasures they brought with them.

After all, now that the divine sword had appeared, how could the strangers still dare to attack Stone Village?

Boom!

The divine sword suddenly fell from the sky and pierced straight into the middle of Stone Village. It stood upright like a pillar of support, surrounded by a terrifying Qi flow.

But the divine sword had not simply fallen. When it descended, it had somehow slashed a portion of the strangers’ bodies with its sword Qi. In a blink of an eye, ten people ended up dead.

The people from Thunder Tribe became hesitant. They were not sure if they should attack or not. The Luofu Tribe, on the other hand, stared at the fallen divine sword with secret intentions.

They did not know who was in control of such a powerful magic treasure but if they attacked that person, they would have seized the chance to steal it for themselves.

Wouldn’t it just be ironic if these villagers were killed in their own village?

A strange smile appeared on the face of the leader of the Luofu Tribe..
