Stepping into the Jade Liquid Boundary, one's body became like precious medicine, rich and fragrant.

Only after attaining completeness in the realm could one retract one's brilliance and return to simplicity.

But at this moment, a sharp light burst forth in Shen Yi's eyes. He stepped forward to meet what was coming, and in the time it took to breathe, he was already standing in front of the dense forest.

Glowing viscera, blood imbued with golden light churned endlessly within his body.

The once restrained robust aura finally began to rapidly diffuse in all directions, revealing the towering majesty of the Jade Liquid Realm Complete!

Clang-

Among the sharp sounds of clashing swords!

The numerous Colonels awoke with a start, tumbling out of their tents, their swords already gripped tightly in their hands.

The first thing that came into their sight was the sky full of sword energy.

"You still dare to come?!"

"If you want to keep your life, get out of my way!"

The sword cultivator's roar was deafening, and the endless sword energy tightly enveloped the slender figure.

Like the claws of a ferocious beast, gradually closing in!

"Qingfeng Mountain disciples are rebelling!"

Under such a powerful momentum, Wang Meng squeezed the air from his lungs, letting out an ear-splitting roar.

Hoping to spread the news to the low hillside outside the dense forest.

In the blink of an eye, he subconsciously searched for another figure, and while his heart trembled with fear, a sliver of relief remained.

It was fortunate that General Hong had arranged for two from the Jade Liquid Boundary to come.

The Qingfeng Mountain bandits had actually chosen this place to break through!

The sword energy was fierce, but with the two of them working together, it wasn't necessarily impossible to hold out until the generals arrived.

Soon, Dai Bing's figure, standing with sword in hand, caught the eyes of the Colonels.

They saw her hand tremble slightly as she raised her sword, not to defend against the enemy, but instead pointing it from afar at the young man in the ink colored clothing.

This action dumbfounded the Colonels, and their hearts sunk: "..."

All of them were seasoned veterans, and seeing this scene, they needed not speculate any further.

They clenched their teeth, grasping their knives and pounced towards the woman!

Boom!

In the distance, the sword energy that was gradually closing in became more solid, and as it covered the Three-foot Green Peak, it suddenly exploded in the moment of thrusting out, unleashing a turbulent gale, kicking up billowing dust and debris.

This made everyone involuntarily raise their arms to shield their eyes.

A loud, clear voice resounded through the dense forest.

"Junior Sister, strike now!"

Dai Bing bit down on her teeth, staring ahead, her sword-wielding hand no longer trembling.

Her eyes were bloodshot, and she turned her head to shout sternly at a few Colonels, "Get out of the way! We were colleagues once, don't force my hand!"

She heard a trace of panic in her senior brother's voice.

The man who had been well-known for a long time rarely showed such an unusual emotion during a fight, especially against a young Colonel fresh in the field.

She was here to control the battlefield, and unless necessary, had no intention of harming anyone, only wanting to frighten Shen Yi away.

Who would have thought that he would be so stubborn, and actually managed to stop her senior brother...

If she hesitated any longer, she would not be able to leave today!

With this thought, she rushed forward, the sword in her hand carrying sword energy of the same essence, though slightly weaker.

Ahead, the dust and smoke dispersed.

Shen Yi grasped the handle of the blade with one hand, drawing it upward from below. The black and straight Ceremonial Blade had not yet fully left its sheath before it conveniently blocked the incoming Three-Foot Green Peak.

He looked down at the man before him, continuing to draw his blade calmly.

As the tip of the blade was revealed.

Shen Yi turned his hand slightly, and under the immense force, the man's long sword suddenly bent into an extremely exaggerated arc, letting out mournful cries.

The Qingfeng Mountain Executor's forehead broke out in sweat, and his usually indifferent face showed a few traces of disbelief.

The shock from the hilt was so strong, it almost flew out of my grasp.

Such terrifying force, as if what stood before me was not a Demon-suppression Marshal, but a humanoid demon!

Crack——

The finely-forged sword could only endure three breaths before it was covered in dense cracks, shattered completely, and turned into tiny fragments that buried themselves into the Executor's body.

The Mo Blade that whipped upwards from below tore open the flesh, leaving a deep gash from his right waist to left shoulder.

Before the Executor had a chance to cry out in pain, he was seized by the collar by the young man and violently thrown backward.

"Senior brother!"

Dai Bing, rushing forward with sword in hand, looked up to see a figure flying towards her, her face showing a hint of panic, as she forcefully retracted her momentum, her steps staggered and uncertain.

Before she could stand firm, her senior brother had already crashed into her.

She instinctively went to catch him, and just as her palms touched his body, her expression changed dramatically.

Boom! Boom!

A powerful force surged through her senior brother's body; she had no chance to react as if hit by a small mountain, her delicate body was sent flying along with him.

Her internal organs felt as if they were being squeezed and churned, ready to burst!

Dai Bing, holding onto her senior brother, broke through several large trees before managing to land, spitting out a mouthful of scarlet blood, narrowly avoiding death right then and there.

Under this terrifying power, her years of hard-earned sword skills seemed so weak and her cultivation at the Jade Liquid Early Stage like the feeble effort of a praying mantis blocking a carriage.

Gasping for breath, with a look of panic on her face, Dai Bing's hand weakly reached toward the long sword lying to the side.

Just as she was about to touch the hilt, a boot slowly stepped on her wrist.

Amidst sharp pain, she cried out and looked up.

She saw the youth looking down from above, his bright eyes void of emotion as he casually placed the blade against her throat.

Dai Bing's hand was just inches away from the sword hilt, seemingly just a bit more effort away from picking it up.

But her eyes gradually filled with despair: "..."

She had no doubt that if she continued to harbor the thought of wielding her sword, the Mo Blade glowing with a dark light would pierce her throat without a moment's hesitation.

Why was it that a mere Second Pattern Commandant could be so formidable as to make one completely lose the will to resist?

The Qingfeng Mountain Executor, barely clinging to life, slowly placed a palm on her arm, his fingers limp, yet enough to convey his thoughts.

He revealed a grin, his neat teeth stained crimson, and said miserably, "I thank Officer Shen for sparing our lives."

"..."

Shen Yi glanced at him, then casually slapped his face with the blade.

Such a damn lot of nonsense.

The moment the other party wielded the sword, it seemed strong, but in fact, they left a path alive.

Anyone with a Jade Liquid cultivation, filled with dread, could just retreat by over a dozen yards to avoid it.

As a concession, they could only watch the two of them make a quick escape.

I definitely couldn't let this pair of lovebirds go.

There was no need to kill them though.

As for whether they could live, that had nothing to do with me, just as they hadn't considered, what kind of punishment they would face if they were to let them go.

Shen Yi sheathed his sword calmly, kicked away the long sword, "Tie them up and take them to Lord Hong."

A few colonels looked at the wrecked dense forest, the tall trees collapsing askew, slightly overwhelmed by the scene.

They couldn't even comprehend what had happened.

They saw the sword energy explode, followed by Officer Shen stacking the two people in just a few moves... These were not ordinary individuals, but two masters at the complete stage of the Jade Liquid Realm.

The men swallowed hard, feeling their mouths dry.

They trusted General Hong Lei's words a bit more now, even though they didn't know if there was a Shen clan in Qingzhou, or if they could really make Zhao Kanglin's grandfather kneel and call them Daddy. But it was unquestionable that Shen Yi was not to be trifled with.

Wang Meng recalled the scene a few days ago when Shen Yi had courteously sought his advice, and he couldn't help shuddering.

That level of ruthlessness didn't fit the man's seemingly easygoing demeanor.

They pulled out specially made hemp ropes from the tent, feeling it unnecessary since the two were just breaths away from death, not to strangle them further, but still diligently bound them together in a tight bundle.
