The Azure Dragon Emissary entered the falling blossoms.
His Azure Dragon light wave had been shattered by Ling Ge with a single note.
Unwilling to accept defeat, he was about to attack again when he saw the Vermilion Bird Emissary trapped.
He then abandoned Ling Ge, shielding himself with the Azure Dragon light wave.
He charged into the falling, blossoming petals, intending to rescue the Vermilion Bird Emissary first.
Upon seeing the Azure Dragon Emissary, the Vermilion Bird Emissary hurried towards him.
The light wave around the Azure Dragon Emissary intensified, enveloping them both.
Then their hands clasped, their cultivation merging into one.
The greatest strength of the Four Symbols Emissaries was not in individual combat.
It was in their combined attacks; together, the four could unleash the Four Symbols Array.
Not only that, but they could also combine their strengths in pairs or trios.
Azure Dragon and Vermilion Bird, their combined might, exerted their power together.
The light wave that enveloped them instantly changed.
Initially, the light wave was purely azure. After the Vermilion Bird's cultivation was infused,
Crimson light joined in, giving it a somewhat eerie appearance.
Then the light wave flickered, and the two intertwined colors began to separate distinctly.
The light wave flashed and began to rotate, transforming into a Tai Chi symbol.
The rotating Tai Chi diagram emitted a powerful attraction.
All the crabapple petals surrounding them were drawn in.
As the Tai Chi diagram spun, it formed a vortex composed of petal rain.
They were on the verge of being sucked into the Tai Chi diagram.
"Unite."
Faced with the dire situation, Fairy Nong Qing made a decisive move.
Her voice boomed like thunder as she shouted, and all the myriad petals controlled by the azure and crimson Tai Chi diagram vanished, leaving only a delicate crabapple blossom spinning with the Tai Chi diagram.
The Azure Dragon Emissary and the Vermilion Bird Emissary did not know what Nong Qing intended, but they dared not be careless.
They increased their output of spiritual energy, and the Tai Chi diagram spun faster and faster.
Their intention was to use the power of the Tai Chi diagram to grind the crabapple blossom into dust.
"Explode!"
Fairy Nong Qing's voice rang out again, and a terrifying pressure emanated from the crabapple blossom. It then exploded silently.
Although there was no earth-shattering sound, the force unleashed
Was like a tidal wave, instantly dissipating the rotating Tai Chi diagram.
The Azure Dragon Emissary and the Vermilion Bird Emissary were also struck by the backlash, sent flying backward.
They both vomited blood upon landing, clearly injured by Fairy Nong Qing.
Xuan Wu helped them up, and the three exchanged glances before their figures flickered.
They moved to surround Nong Qing and the other two, forming a pincer formation.
They intended to use their combined trio attack against Nong Qing and her companions.
Although the three Azure Dragon Emissaries had no physical contact,
Their magical energies flowed and converged in the air,
Forming a net that enveloped Nong Qing and the other two.
"Baby, that old immortal from the Heavenly Dao Sect is here to cause trouble for us.
Why aren't you taking action and just watching the show with me?"
On top of the Golden Crow Palace, Ming Yue sat on the back of a Golden Crow statue,
Mouth full of jerky, asking indistinctly. When the thunder sounded earlier, she and Fairy Golden Crow were changing into new clothes.
Upon hearing the thunder, Fairy Golden Crow brought her to the rooftop.
They saw Nong Qing and the other two fighting against He Lian Bo and the Four Symbols Emissaries.
Fairy Golden Crow stood atop the statue, watching the spectacle with a detached air.
She showed no signs of worry, which Ming Yue found perplexing.
The three Azure Dragon Emissaries had already used their combined attack; wasn't Fairy Golden Crow worried?
Moreover, the Sect Master of the Heavenly Dao Sect, He Lian Bo, was watching menacingly from the side.
What if he launched a surprise attack?
It wasn't that Ming Yue was being overly suspicious, but she had a poor impression of He Lian Bo.
Although this was her first time seeing him, she knew that
He was the Sect Master of the Heavenly Dao Sect who had forced Qing Jia to die and severely injured Luo Qi on their wedding night.
He was Qing Jia's master. If not for him,
Qing Jia would not have become a vengeful demon, and Luo Qi would not have harmed innocent people to refine vengeful spirits.
Therefore, Ming Yue looked at the white-bearded, white-haired figure in the sky,
The Sect Master of the Heavenly Dao Sect, He Lian Bo, who appeared to be an immortal, and felt no goodwill.
She chewed the jerky in her mouth with gritted teeth.
If her cultivation were not so meager, she would have stepped forward long ago to teach He Lian Bo a lesson.
"Sister, don't worry.
The Four Symbols Emissaries are not that formidable. The White Tiger Emissary has already been killed.
Their most powerful Four Symbols Array cannot be used without one person.
Nong Qing and the other two can handle them. And don't worry about that old immortal.
Can't you see he's constantly exposing his cultivation, just to prevent me from making a move?
I won't act, let him exhaust himself to death.
The Wind and Thunder Technique, though a profound Xuanmen Dao art, is incredibly draining. He has three hundred years of cultivation, right?
Let's see how long he can last. Since he's here,
Let this old immortal put on a good show in front of the sect leaders of the cultivation world.
Don't let them think we're not hospitable."
Fairy Golden Crow said playfully, watching the wind and thunder that enveloped Mount Wuliang.
She thought to herself, "Let that old bastard exhaust himself to death!"
"Oh, I see!
But weren't the Four Symbols Emissaries raised alongside the Sect Master of the Heavenly Dao Sect since childhood?
Shouldn't each of them also have over three hundred years of cultivation?
Why do you say their cultivation isn't strong?"
Ming Yue swallowed the jerky and took out a bag of preserved fruits from her embrace.
Her life was now incredibly comfortable; she had even gained weight.
Although the Golden Crow Palace faced a formidable enemy in He Lian Bo, she was not worried at all.
Everything was in the hands of Fairy Golden Crow. This was the benefit of clinging to a powerful figure.
However, her naturally gossipy nature led her to ask curiously.
"The batch of Four Symbols Emissaries who grew up with the old immortal are long dead.
Otherwise, why would he be called the old immortal? He outlived all his peers.
Only he remains immortal. The current Four Symbols Emissaries
Are the third batch, each with only a hundred years of cultivation.
Otherwise, how could that brat Ji Shiyou have killed the White Tiger Emissary?
If they all had the same cultivation as the old immortal,
It would have been Ji Shiyou who died, not He Hua."
Fairy Golden Crow felt no concern about the battle in the sky and even had the leisure to approach Ming Yue.
She rummaged through a paper bag, found a preserved fruit she liked,
And popped it into her mouth, explaining to Ming Yue.
As Fairy Golden Crow had predicted, in less than the time it takes for a cup of tea to brew,
The Azure Dragon and the other two Four Symbols Emissaries were sent flying by Nong Qing and the others.
They fell onto the plaza in front of the Golden Crow Palace, coughing up large amounts of blood.
They were clearly severely injured and no longer capable of fighting.
"Old immortal, how is it?
Do you feel your face burning? Do you think you're worthy of teaching us a lesson?
I've tolerated you for a long time. If it weren't for you back then,
Big Brother Qing Lan wouldn't have despaired and chosen to perish with the heavenly demon.
Today, you've come to the Golden Crow Palace to cause trouble again,
Seeking revenge for your prodigal son. Have you no shame?
Your son was utterly wicked.
Even if Ji Shiyou hadn't killed him, he would have died by someone else's hand.
Ji Shiyou killing him was acting on behalf of heaven, a cause for great rejoicing!
To raise such a son, if I were you,
I would pack my bags and commit suicide to atone to the world.
You still have the audacity to seek revenge, truly a laughingstock to all under heaven!"
Fan Ye, the Mad Demon Sword, no longer acted like a refined gentleman after drawing his sword.
He pointed at He Lian Bo's nose and cursed madly.
The sect leaders and elders on the ground listened with great satisfaction.
Fan Ye's curses voiced their innermost thoughts. Many smaller sects
Had been bullied by He Hua and dared not speak out.
Although Fan Ye appeared deranged today, he spoke the truth in everyone's hearts.
Someone started it, and the plaza erupted in thunderous applause and cheers.
"Insolent cur! I will kill you!"
He Lian Bo, having lived for over three hundred years, had never been insulted like this.
His face turned ashen with rage, and he controlled the torrent of lightning to strike at Fan Ye.
