*Bam*
In a dark room, Bei Yuan suddenly pounded on the table in anger, as he spoke gloomily. "What the hell is going on here!? The people of this continent are suddenly on high alert; this happened after that woman came to us two weeks ago, and even the sects closed their sect gates tightly. Apart from that, Zhu Yuhe and the two kings became more active in scouting the villages, which made it difficult for Mo Lui and Mo Yun to gather life energy. Do you think that woman betrayed us, Lanyi?"
"I don't think so, King Bei." Fen Lanyi replied with a shake of the head, and then she explained to him. "Anyway, I already sent one of my shadow demons to spy on that woman, and he just reported to me that she herself is on edge because one of her targets disappeared from the sect, and no one knows about her disappearance."
"Hmm? Could it be that someone else knows of our whereabouts on this continent?" Bei Yuan asked with a frown.
Fen Lanyi sighed softly. "I don't know, King Bei."
"We've been on this continent for three weeks, but we still haven't managed to capture the two demon foxes and the young demon girl. In addition, the two of them are also having trouble gathering life energy. If this continues, then the Demon Emperor will be furious with us." After saying that, Bei Yuan fell silent for a long time, but just as he was about to speak again, someone suddenly dashed into the room, and he asked. "Why are you in such a hurry?"
The person immediately kneeled in front of Bei Yuan and answered him. "I'm sorry, King Bei. But I brought you a piece of important news, the demons we assigned to spy on Twin Star Sword Sect are dead."
"What!?" Bei Yuan and Fen Lanyi both exclaimed in shock at that, and he then asked again. "What happened? How did they die? And who killed them?"
"One of the shadow demons reported that the killer was a silver-haired woman, that woman also knew his location even though he was in shadow mode, but he was still able to escape from her."
They frowned upon hearing that, Bei Yuan then looked at Fen Lanyi, and she answered. "That's unbelievable, this is the first time I've heard of someone who can detect the presence of a shadow demon in shadow mode."
Bei Yuan was lost in thought as he tapped his chair, and before long he spoke. "We must speed up our plan; if necessary, we will make our move, Lanyi. Otherwise, we will face the Demon Emperor's wrath."
"Alright." Fen Lanyi nodded in agreement, after which they discussed their next plans.

Medical Valley Sect
Dongfang Xinyue was lying restlessly in her room. Ever since she returned to the sect a week ago, she had sensed that someone was constantly spying on her, but she couldn't find anyone. "What exactly happened here? How did Ran Ling'er disappear from the sect? Moreover, I've asked the other disciples, but no one has seen her leave the sect."
Suddenly, she received a sound transmission from someone, and it made her curse. "Damn it! Why did they come to this continent? It seems Father sent that special group of cultivators to track me down on this continent. I haven't managed to get my revenge on Xia Tian, but they have already found me! Sigh. I have to speed up my plan before they reach this sect. Otherwise, they will drag me home before I manage to do so."
After that, Dongfang Xinyue came out of her room, and she saw people gathered in front of a room. 'Hmm? Isn't that Mengxin's room? Did something happen to her?'
Dongfang Xinyue immediately walked over to them, and when she saw that two people were in Murong Mengxin's room, she peeked into the room while listening to them.
"What exactly happened to you, Mengxin? Why did your body become like this?" Dugu Yan asked as she examined Murong Mengxin, for her condition looked so serious, that she was even vomiting blood.
However, Murong Mengxin only shook her head at her, and she took a glance at her bedroom door.
"Tell me, Mengxin. Who injured you like this?" A female elder asked; she felt anxious about Murong Mengxin's condition because she was the eldest daughter of the Murong family, and she was afraid that Murong Feiyan would blame them, if anything happened to her within their sect.
"No one injured me, Elder. I just made a mistake with my training, and it caused me internal injuries." Murong Mengxin weakly replied.
Dugu Yan frowned. "Is that really what happened?"
Murong Mengxin nodded. "En, you guys don't need to worry about me; I've already swallowed a healing pill, and my condition will improve quickly."
'Hey, I'm really lucky! Since she was injured like that, I can start my plan tonight.' Dongfang Xinyue muttered to herself as she walked away.
However, she did not notice that an evil smile appeared on Murong Mengxin's face, not even Dugu Yan and the elder woman noticed it.
"Sigh, alright then, you should rest for now and don't train yet." Murong Mengxin nodded in agreement, then Dugu Yan and the female elder left her room right after.
After they left, Murong Mengxin immediately got up from her bed and peered out through the window. 'Heh, looks like she took my bait.'
--------------------------------------
Not far from the Twin Star Sword Sect, Nalan Qing was sitting on a big tree branch, playing with her hair. "Sigh, those demons are really stupid, I've been killing their friends for two weeks, but they keep coming here."
"Hmm?" Nalan Qing suddenly raised her eyebrows, and she looked up at the two women standing in the air, saying to them with a playful smile. "Oh? After two weeks, you finally noticed my presence, Sect Master Mei."
"Who exactly are you? Why did you infiltrate our sect's territory?" Mei Yun asked as she landed in front of Nalan Qing along with her twin sister.
Nalan Qing chuckled. "Even if I tell you my identity, you won't recognize me. Anyway, you guys don't need to mind me, I came here to protect four people from those demons."
"Who are they?" Mei Yin asked with a frown.
"Xia Han, Yu Suyin, Yin, and Xin." Nalan Qing nonchalantly replied.
Mei Yun raised her eyebrows; she then thought for a moment before asking her. "Did Xia Tian ask you to protect them?"
"En." Nalan Qing nodded to her. "Indeed, it was my godfather who asked me to protect them, because the demons were after them, especially Xia Han."
'Godfather? Xia Tian is her godfather?' The Mei twins muttered in their hearts as their eyes kept observing Nalan Qing.
Before Mei Yun could ask her again, Nalan Qing had already spoken. "You don't need to ask about our relationship, because I won't be telling you anything. Since you guys are done, you guys can go back to your sect, and I will stay here to protect them."
Mei Yin wanted to curse at Nalan Qing, but Mei Yun immediately stopped her. "Alright then, we will return to the sect."
After saying that, Mei Yun immediately pulled her twin sister away with her. Although Nalan Qing looked relaxed, she could feel that she was much stronger than her, so she didn't want her twin sister to anger her.
"Why did you just let her be, Sis?" Mei Yin inquired, irritably.
Mei Yun sighed softly and answered her. "That woman is very strong, she is even stronger than Empress Yuhe, Sis. If you anger her, I'm afraid she will kill you directly, which is why I immediately took you away."
"But-"
"No buts." Mei Yun interrupted her twin sister. "Since she came under Xia Tian's order, then we should just let her do her thing."
Mei Yin frowned at her words, even though her twin sister had told her about Xia Tian, she still couldn't understand why she respected him so much. 'Damn it! I have to go to see Xia Tian to make sure whether they have a special relationship or not.'
