Night.

The moon shines faintly.

Ye Xi bid farewell to Ye Qingge and walked out. It was already dark outside, with a gentle breeze.

Looking up, among the mountains, there were flickering bonfires.

There were also some places that were extremely bright. Those were some major sects that didn't need bonfires for illumination, but instead directly activated their treasures.

The treasures were like a bright moon, hanging in the sky, radiating brilliance.

Because of an immortal Great Emperor's diary, the entire area within hundreds of miles of Cangwu Mountain was crowded with people.

It was quite lively.

"The day after tomorrow is the day of the decisive battle with the An Family!"

Ye Xi murmured softly, hesitated for a moment, and then flew towards the darkness.

In the next moment.

He had already arrived at the peak of a towering mountain. He bowed towards the ground and said, "Master! Disciple Ye Xi has come to seek an audience!"

The mountains and wilderness were silent.

The only response he received was the chirping of insects and the rustling of branches swayed by the wind.

Helpless, Ye Xi said again, "Master..."

However, before he could finish his words, the ground beneath his feet trembled, and a crack opened with a loud sound.

Rolling black mist spread out from the crack.

Within the black mist, a pair of sharp eyes fell on Ye Xi, and a voice sounded:

"I've told you before, I'm not your master!"

"Do you want to die, kid?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Xi smiled and said indifferently, "Master, I often hear Master mention you..."

"He said you are the most gentle, understanding, and kind-hearted person he has ever met. Although you speak harshly, your heart is incredibly pure and kind."

Ye Xi paused and continued, "He also said that you have a sharp tongue but a soft heart..."

In the black mist, the vague figure swayed slightly.

Her pale purple pupils softened a bit at that moment.

"Alright, stop talking!"

Purple Tung Great Emperor asked directly, "What do you want me to do?"

Ye Xi's face lit up with joy. After thinking for a moment, he explained his plans.

Half an hour later.

When Ye Xi was about to leave, he took out a box and handed it to Purple Tung Great Emperor, saying, "Master!"

"This is a gift that Master prepared for you before he left. He specifically asked me to personally give it to you!"

Purple Tung Great Emperor remained silent, and there was no movement in the black mist for a long time.

After a while.

She finally took the box and opened it, revealing a seed of a red bean.

Purple Tung Great Emperor was puzzled, "Why did he give me a red bean seed for no reason?"

Ye Xi smiled and remained silent, then softly recited:

"Red beans grow in the south, in spring they sprout a few branches. May you pick many, for this is the most lovesick thing."

After Ye Xi finished speaking, two clear tears flowed down from Purple Tung Great Emperor's eyes.

Purple Tung Great Emperor murmured softly, "May you pick many, for this is the most lovesick thing."

"But why did you..."

Ye Xi waited for a moment before saying, "Master, although I don't know what happened..."

"I'm sure Master had his reasons back then. When he returns, he will explain everything to you."

After Ye Xi finished speaking, he bowed once again, and his figure floated away.

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the night.

In his heart, he thought, "I'm willing to do whatever it takes for the happiness of my master and master's wife!"

After a long time.

Purple Tung Great Emperor looked at the red bean in her hand as if it were a treasure. After a long while, she snorted coldly and said:

"Alright, let's see how you'll try to explain yourself when the time comes!"

------------

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Early in the morning.

As the eastern sky revealed a hint of light, the three elders of the An Family emerged from a secret chamber.

An Shanyuan led the strongest cultivators of the An Family, ready for battle.

In half an hour, the An Family would embark on a life-and-death battle.

The outcome of this battle would determine the survival of the entire clan!

An Yujun, dressed in a black robe, calmly scanned the surroundings and smiled, "Let's go. Since our An Family dared to propose this battle, we must not keep our fellow daoists waiting."

In the sky above the An Family's territory, figures shot out one after another.

Then, like locusts, they flew towards the distant mountains.

The location of this battle was set in a vast plain hundreds of miles away from Cangwu Mountain.

The plain was vast and boundless.

It was perfect for watching the battle and for both sides to display their Divine Abilities!

At this moment, the originally empty plain was already packed with people from various forces, gathered together.

Yuan Ruoyu, Ye Qingge, and others were also among the crowd.

The Jade Pool Holy Land and the Lumi Moon Immortal Sect, as well as other superpowers, naturally occupied the core area.

The further back, the more one had to rely on their mana to catch a glimpse.

Of course, being at the forefront also carried certain risks in this level of battle.

The Mahayana cultivators launched a full-scale attack, even the aftermath of the battle was not something ordinary cultivators could withstand.

Whoosh!

In the distance, there was the sound of breaking through the air.

Everyone looked up, their smiles becoming even more excited.

They were extremely thrilled!

The people from the An Family had arrived, and the duel was about to begin!

Many cultivators looked at the people from the An Family with admiration. In this situation, they actually dared to come and fight.

Before this, many cultivators speculated whether the so-called decisive battle was intentionally created by the An Family.

The purpose was to buy time and divert attention from the secret of the Cangwu Mountain...

Until this moment, everyone finally believed that the An Family truly intended to challenge all the forces that had come.

Their courage was admirable.

On the open plain, the people from the An Family descended slowly, each with a serious expression as if facing a formidable enemy.

An Shanyuan took a step forward and his voice, mixed with spiritual power, resounded:

"Today is the agreed-upon day of the duel. The An Family keeps its word and has come to accept the challenge!"

An Shanyuan took a deep breath and continued, "A fair duel, regardless of life or death!"

"I also hope that all Fellow Daoists remember, if the An Family is fortunate enough to win, you must all leave and never mention this matter again!"

As soon as his words fell, most of the "coalition" nodded in agreement.

If so many forces were to lose to the An Family, what face would they have to ask others to unlock the secret of the Cangwu Mountain?

"Since that's the case, let's begin!"

An Shanyuan stepped back slowly, and an ancestor from the An Family soared into the sky.

A powerful aura erupted, and An Yuheng shouted, "An Family, An Yuheng, who dares to fight me?"

Yuan Ruoyu squinted her eyes and looked at An Yuheng, her expression somewhat solemn.

The three ancestors of the An Family were once prominent figures in the cultivation world.

They were all outstanding individuals who led their respective eras.

However, in recent years, with the rise of the An Family, the three ancestors had mostly been in seclusion, causing many people to forget their prestige.

After a moment.

The grand elder, Cangyuan, also soared into the sky, his aura rising steadily.

"Yuchi Holy Land's Cangyuan, I've come to meet you, Fellow Daoist An!"

The two figures faced each other from a distance of dozens of zhang, their gazes locking.

Cangyuan was the first to fight, as agreed upon by the group.

In an instant, the previously noisy voices fell silent.

It became eerily quiet.

Everyone present involuntarily held their breath, their eyes fixed on the two figures in the sky.

This was the first duel, and it had a significant impact.

"Who do you think will win?"

"It's hard to say!"

"I'm more inclined towards Cangyuan. After all, he is the grand elder of the Yuchi Holy Land, with countless cultivation resources and exceptional talent."

"But we can't say for sure. The three ancestors of the An Family were all prominent figures in their time!"

"Moreover, the An Family has risen rapidly and has abundant resources!"

After a brief calm, a loud bang erupted, and the crowd erupted like a boiling pot.

Various discussions and debates filled the air.

Ye Qingge's face was cold as she stared at the two figures, her thoughts unknown.

Yuan Ruoyu also had a serious expression.

But in a corner of the sky, on a leaf.

At this moment, Ye Xici was sitting there casually eating hot pot, seemingly completely unconcerned about the duel.

Qiao Xixi glanced at him and said, "You're also involved. You're about to go on stage, and you still have the mood to eat a big meal?"

Ye Xici replied nonchalantly, "If you're not full, how can you have the energy to fight?"

"..."

Qiao Xixi was speechless. Are you really in the Mahayana stage? You need to eat to have energy, then what about the others?

She looked at Ye Xici, a complex expression flashing in her eyes...

At first, Qiao Xixi thought that Ye Xici was also a descendant of a certain cultivation family, but later she discovered that there was no surname Nicholas among the cultivation families.

Qiao Xixi couldn't understand Ye Xici more and more. He was like a puzzle.

He made her feel confused.

Ye Xici looked up at her and said, "Hurry up and eat. Why aren't you eating? If it's overcooked, it'll get old! You have to eat it while it's tender!"

Meanwhile, the two figures on the plain finally made a move.

An Yuheng sneered, shook his head, and said, "Be careful, Fellow Daoist Cangyuan!"

Boom!

As soon as his words fell, his aura unexpectedly soared again!

An unbelievably powerful pressure, like a landslide and a tsunami, instantly crushed down.

At this moment, everyone was shocked!

This pressure was that of a Great Emperor!

An Yuheng from the An Family was not a cultivator in the later stage of Mahayana, but a Great Emperor at the Transcending Tribulation stage.
