Zhangsun Wuji's tone was flat as he said:

"Since all the martial artists have gathered here, I think there must be some problem that needs to be resolved. I wonder if I, Zhangsun Wuji, can help you all?"

Although the Seven Great Sects' martial arts were strong and Min Tian dared to call himself the Evil King, their power was far from that of the imperial government. The imperial government had five hundred thousand troops, and the entire Seven Great Sects combined with the Devil Island only had thirty thousand people. Now that the eldest grandson, the Great General Zuo Wu, was here, everyone had to show some face.

Yu Wenbin replied respectfully, "We're not doing anything important, we were just sparring with each other. I didn't expect it to alarm you, General Zhangsun. I feel really sorry for it."

Hearing Yu Wenbin say it was a spar, Zhangsun Wuji seemed to be interested as well. With a "sou" sound, he flew from his horse to the military flag he had previously stuck on and stood on one leg.

He smiled and said to the crowd:

"Who's interested in sparring with me?"

At this moment, everyone looked at each other, but no one replied. Yu Wenbin and the others understood in their hearts that even if their martial arts were stronger than Zhangsun Wuji, they still couldn't fight against Zhangsun Wuji. Otherwise, it would be disrespectful towards the imperial court.

Seeing the heavy atmosphere, Zhangsun Wuji took the initiative to break this situation. He then said:

"Alright, since everyone is no longer interested in sparring, then please leave this place."

His words were like advice, more like orders.

Min Tian first bowed and said:

"Then we will leave the Devil Island first. Please forgive us if we disturb General Zhang Sun."

Zhangsun Wuji made a gesture to invite them to dinner and said: "Feel free to go."

After saying this, Min Tian led the 40 to 50 people from the Devil Island out of the Skypiercing Cliff. Shi Zhiyan was also being supported by two people as he walked. Seeing that Shi Zhiyan was able to escape, a trace of regret appeared in Qing Zhi's eyes.

Feng Zizhi brought Feng Tianan and the other members of the Azure Dragon Society to bid farewell to Zhangsun Wuji.

"It's almost daybreak. We should head back as well. We have to receive our distinguished guests tomorrow. Sire, farewell!"

Those from the famous sects, wolf tribe, Shaolin Temple, Peacock Villa, Jiangnan Sword Pavilion and the Beggar Gang also left with their grievances. They could have killed the heavens tonight, but none of them expected that Zhangsun Wuji would appear. But most importantly, the profound dragon secret manual had also disappeared, and the mission that the seven major sects had put in was once again in vain.

"Yi Feng …" Yi Feng, wake up. "

A familiar voice flashed through Lu Yifeng's mind.

"Sky Tyrant … Sky Tyrant! "

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" He cried out and woke up from his coma.

"Where am I? Am I dead?"

Lu Yifeng used his hand to rub his head and felt dizzy. He still felt pain in his head. This was pain, not pain. Lowering his head and closing his eyes, the pain in his head finally lessened.

His clothes were soaked, and there was no fire, so he could only hug himself close to the wall. Looking around, he saw that the walls were all stone, and the top was covered in stone, as if he was in a huge sarcophagus. The rumbling reminded him of a waterfall. He turned around and saw a white waterfall behind him. He didn't know where it had come from, but he knew that the water from the waterfall was very strong.

"Don't tell me … don't tell me I'm not dead yet?"

Lu Yifeng found this unbelievable and squeezed his arm.

"Aiyo, it hurts!"

If he could still feel pain, that meant he was still alive.

"This is a cave, but where am I now?" he asked himself.

Fragments of the night he jumped off the cliff flashed across his mind, "Seven Great Sects …" Evil King Dan Tian … Sky Tyrant, Profound Dragon Secret Manual … Die … Darkness.

"Ahh …" His head began to hurt again, even more so than before. He held his head and rolled on the ground. After a while, the pain lessened.

He took off his wet clothes and stood naked in the cave. The cold made him feel cold. He looked around and found that the surrounding stone walls were covered in moss. There was no exit, and it could even be described as airtight. Only the waterfall was the only exit.

He walked in front of the waterfall and discovered a brown box on the ground. It was the box that could not be opened that night.

The word flashed through his mind and he tried again, but he still couldn't open it. The sound of the waterfall was so loud that one could tell from the sound of the drum that there was a lake or a pool or a river below. This cave was very moist. Lu Yifeng no longer hung his clothes on the protruding rocks to dry, instead forcefully wringing the water off his clothes. After wringing it several times, it was difficult for the water on his clothes to squeeze out.

The cave was not considered big, only slightly larger than the guest rooms. Damp was the only word that could describe the cave.

"What does the profound dragon secret manual look like? Why am I still alive, why? "Why?!"

Lu Yifeng hated himself because he remembered the night that Wang Tianba died. Now, he remembered everything, but he did not know where he was. Only the waterfall at the entrance of the cave could let him see the light. However, it seemed that night was approaching again. The outside gradually became darker.

In the Jiang-Nan Sword Pavilion, Qing Zhi and Wan Liang were practicing their swordsmanship in the backyard when a teacup suddenly flew towards them. Wan Liang and Qing Zhi seemed to have the same idea, so they turned the teacup over with their sword, spilling the tea. Wan and Wan were practicing their swordplay in the backyard, when suddenly, a teacup flew towards them.

"Good sword technique, I was not wrong about the two of you."

Yu Wenbin slowly walked over from the path with a smile on his face. Seeing that it was Yu Wenbin, the two of them hurriedly clasped their fists and bowed. Together, they said:

"Master!"

"En, no need to be so polite. Your sword techniques are becoming more and more exquisite, but you still lack a bit of strength. If you can control your strength well, then your Jiang-Nan sword techniques will be displayed to perfection."

"Thank you for your praise, Master."

The two of them had an elegant demeanor, however, Qing Zhi did not have the mature feeling that he had. Qing Zhi's expression was even more indifferent.

A female voice came from behind Yu Wenbin, "Dad, Senior Brother, what are you guys talking about?"

It was unknown what happy events had happened to Yu Siming. He hummed a song and jumped into the backyard with a very happy expression.

When the two of them saw Yu Simin, they shouted, "Junior Sister!"

Yu Wenbin smiled happily and said to Yu Simin,

"My good daughter, are you not going to learn swordsmanship from Fifth Martial Brother today?"

"Aiya! "Father, I've practiced for several days this week. Today, let me take a break!"

She also knew that her father wouldn't scold her because Yu Wenbin only had a daughter, so of course she wouldn't be willing to scold him.

Seeing that his daughter was acting this coquettishly, Yu Wenbin had no choice but to let her go. He said earnestly:

"The Ghost is you, to think that your dad would allow you to be lazy today."

"That's great. Thanks dad, I'll be going now."

Yu Siming smiled even more happily and disappeared without a trace.

Wan Liang and Qing Zhi had been friends with Yu Siming since they were young, so they knew Yu Siming's personality very well. Yu Siming was the kind of person who would catch fish every day, and they had gotten used to Yu Wen Bin being coquettish and asking for leave.

"Master, why have you come to look for us?"

After his obedient daughter left, Yu Wenbin began to discuss business with his two disciples.

"Did you kill Shi Zhiyan the night before yesterday?"

Qing Zhi recalled and replied, "No."

"He was hit by four of my blades and the disciples thought that he was dead for sure. Who would have known that his inner strength was so deep that he was able to endure it?"

"Forget it, if it were not for Zhangsun Wuji's arrival, all the people on the Evil Demon Island would have died."

Yu Wenbin thought about it and sighed.

Qing Zhi asked again:

"How did Zhangsun Wuji know we were at Skypiercing Cliff?"

Yu Wenbin said firmly,

"If I'm not wrong, it's the Turkic."

"Turkic?"

Qing Zhi and Wan Liang were puzzled.
