Watching the three from the Mysterious Sword Sect leave, Li Muyang had a terrible headache.
These three blockheads... really, they’re too much!
Although I’m touched that you believed what I said without a second word,
even if you believed me, shouldn’t you have stayed to ask for more details?
You ran off to rescue someone the moment you heard the beginning of what I had to say...
At this moment, Li Muyang suddenly understood why these three from the Purple Mansion Realm always stuck together and acted as a team.
It’s simply like attracts like!
Returning speechless to the side of the rebels, as soon as Li Muyang came back, the two young masters from the Nie household and the people of the rebellion all saluted him at the same time.

"Thank you, the Nameless Immortal, for your rescue!"
The talismans used by the Sword Cultivators from the Mysterious Sword Sect were in fact blocked by Li Muyang.
Although they did not know what those talismans were, they sensed that they would be very dangerous.
Li Muyang had definitely saved them by stepping in to help.
Moreover, with the reputation that the name "Nameless" had on the Tianyuan Continent... their thanks were truly heartfelt at this moment.
But Li Muyang simply waved his hand, signaling everyone to keep moving, and had no interest in speaking.
His head was pounding at the thought of the three hot-headed Sword Cultivators from the Mysterious Sword Sect heading straight to confront the monsters in the Capital City.
If those three charged into the city while the Emperor was evacuating the civilians, they would immediately be facing off against the monsters in the Capital City.
Li Muyang wasn’t quite sure about the total strength of the monsters inside the Capital, but based on the failed save file from before, there were hundreds of monsters with the strength of the Spirit Travel Realm in the imperial palace alone.
And that was before the main force of monsters from the north had returned to the Capital.
Now that the main northern monster forces had returned, the strength of the monsters inside the Capital was even greater.
If the Sword Cultivators from the Mysterious Sword Sect charged straight in...
"Let’s go, let’s first help the two young masters from the Nie household out of the Pass," he said.
Li Muyang’s main mission was not yet over.
The mission was to rescue the Nie household’s bloodline, but it hadn’t concluded yet. It seemed like he needed to ensure the safety of the two young masters from the Nie household before unlocking the next stage of the mission.
Looking back at the direction of the Capital City, Li Muyang felt anxious in his heart.
However, he had no intention of chasing after them to stop them—mainly because he couldn’t catch up.
Sword Cultivators at the Purple Mansion Realm were not within his reach to chase after as he was now.
And he had the Save-File Divine Skill. If the situation truly deteriorated and casualties were heavy, he could simply reload and start over.
It was a good time to see if the Cultivators from the Mysterious Sword Sect could hold off the Emperor’s extermination after killing their way into the Capital and evacuating the civilians.
In the long run, the fewer people transformed into monsters by the Emperor, the better.
This save file would serve as a probe.
After blending back into the shadows and releasing control of the Huapi monster, Li Muyang once again floated beside everyone in his spirit form, observing the rebel’s spies from the perspective of a third party.
He was most relaxed in this state, which did not deplete his energy.
Floating beside everyone, they crossed over the mountains and arrived on the plains outside Heiyuan Pass, and their group headed straight for the rebel camp outside the pass.
On the vast plains, the continuous tents sprawled out into the distance, banners waved fiercely, and warhorses neighed, creating a somewhat solemn atmosphere.
Behind them, within Heiyuan Pass, demonic energy soared to the heavens, and a massive cloud of demons loomed over the pass, blocking out the daylight.
Just from the visual effect, it clearly looked like the epic scene of a great battle between good and evil.
But Li Muyang didn’t have much affection for this army waving the banner of righteousness.
Mainly because the core force among these righteous troops was the Blood Demon Path, which had been missing for years—a group of Demon Cultivators who regarded human life as worthless.
Back in the newbie level, the atrocities committed by the Blood Demon Path in Northwest Loushan City were still fresh in Li Muyang’s memory. Discover stories with Freewebnovel
At that time, within Loushan City, civilian casualties were grievous.
Had it not been for the timely assistance of Li Muyang and the Glass Immortal Maiden, the entire Loushan City would have been exterminated by the Demon Suppression Magicians of the Qingtian Monitor.
Perhaps the Emperor of the Lu Imperial Dynasty was brutal and terribly evil, but could this group of rebels, in league with the Blood Demon Path, truly be called the Righteous Army?
Heh...
Li Muyang let out a cold laugh and remained silent.
The group came to the outskirts of the Righteous Army camp; Tang Mengchen took out his identity plaque, and soon the camp gates swung open, revealing the camp with its black Xuanwu flag fluttering in their field of vision.
Under Tang Mengchen’s lead, everyone arrived at the main tent of the camp and met the legendary leader of the Righteous Army, General Rushing Sky Wang Chao, who had once survived two moves from the real person of Green Leaf without perishing.
As soon as the sons of the Nie family set foot in the tent, a hearty laugh echoed from within.
"Hahaha... This morning, magpies kept chirping non-stop in front of the camp gate; I was wondering what good news it heralded. Turns out, the sons and daughter of Lord Nie have arrived."
Following the laughter, heavy footsteps sounded, and a rough and colossal figure appeared within Li Muyang’s view.
This man was so towering that he resembled a small mountain, and as a human, he stood more than two meters tall.
His body was knotted with muscles, and each of his upright beards brimmed with unparalleled domineering presence.
Those fierce, sharp eyes, much like those of a tiger or leopard, brought immense pressure even to him, a Spirit Travel Realm cultivator.
—Though this man could not see him in his soul state.
Moreover, with the bright, shimmering armor this man wore, what emerged from within the tent was not merely a human, but a moving ancient fierce beast, a humanoid evil tiger!
General Rushing Sky Wang Chao was indeed formidable and fierce.
Li Muyang thought in surprise that his reputation was indeed well-deserved.
This man had established the Sky-Piercing Army from nothing and overturned half of the Lu Imperial Dynasty; clearly, he was no ordinary warrior.
Although he was a martial cultivator, this General Rushing Sky Wang Chao could dominate even on the neighboring continent.
Upon Wang Chao’s appearance, he greeted everyone with a splendid smile and a cordial tone, inviting them to take their seats.
Towards the three siblings from the Nie family, he was extremely warm, resembling a kindly elder rather than the ruthless leader of the Righteous Army.
"Lord Nie governed a region in Hebei and is well-respected far and wide; I have long admired you and never thought you would fall victim to a tyrant today—it’s truly unconscionable," said Wang Chao with a smile, uttering conventional pleasantries before getting to the point with an invitation to the sons of the Nie family.
"Why not join my Sky-Piercing Army? Right now, my great army is besieging Heiyuan Pass and will soon break through to enter the Capital City, where we will behead that cruel and tyrannical Emperor for all to see."
"If you assist me, you can also avenge your father and rectify the chaos. Wouldn’t that be wonderful?" Wang Chao offered with a smile.
The two sons of the Nie family exchanged a glance and both stood up to pay their respects.
In response to Wang Chao’s invitation, they spoke with respect and sincere eyes.
And refused decisively.
"... Thank you for the offer, General, but the three of us siblings will head to the south to join the Ever-Victorious Army."
"We’ve heard that the south is plagued by evil spirits, and even the Demon Suppression Magicians from the Qingtian Monitor are struggling to cope. My siblings and I will head to the south to face these evil spirits directly," the sons of the Nie family declined the invitation.
Wang Chao laughed heartily, not taking offense.
He clapped his hands and said with a laugh, "I’ve also heard of the havoc wreaked by evil spirits in the south and have wished to offer assistance."
"But military affairs are pressing, and we’re at a critical juncture without a spare hand to send."
"The two young masters care for the people and do not shy away from danger, willing to venture to the south. You are truly the offspring of the loyal and good... I, the general, toast to you both!"
