The "not bad" person in Fu Feng's mouth was at this time millions of miles away from them.

Chu Mo was deducing Qi Xiaoyu's location.

As his realm advanced, Chu Mo's Fengshui Divine Art grew increasingly powerful. Each time it was deployed, the energy consumed was many times greater than before, but the effect... was remarkably outstanding!

Chu Mo was not wandering aimlessly on his journey; he had been searching for Qi Xiaoyu's exact location all along. Because compared to finding the Demon Lord, finding Qi Xiaoyu was much easier.

But for some reason, Qi Xiaoyu seemed to be moving at high speed all the time. If it were not for the divination showing that Qi Xiaoyu was always safe, Chu Mo would have even thought she was being pursued for assassination.

It was only in the past few days that Chu Mo finally understood that it was not someone hunting Qi Xiaoyu, but this elf ruthlessly hunting down others!

At the several places where Chu Mo had missed his target, signs of combat were found, and from the mouths of a few survivors, Chu Mo finally understood what Qi Xiaoyu was doing.

She was actually helping him assassinate those enemies who had ascended from the Spirit Realm to the Immortal Realm!

The targets of Qi Xiaoyu's recent assassinations turned out to be disciples of the Immortal Realm's Dugu Mountain people who had plotted to kill Chu Mo when he first ascended to the Immortal Realm.

"This girl has too much nerve!" Chu Mo was somewhat astonished after learning the truth.

In the Immortal Realm, Dugu Mountain, although not considered a major power, was also not someone anyone could easilly deal with. Especially for the lone Qi Xiaoyu, they were not only not easy targets, but also a truly colossal entity!

Considering the time Qi Xiaoyu had ascended to the Immortal Realm, even if she worked tirelessly on her cultivation, her realm would not exceed the Mahayana stage. But there were quite a number of Mahayana-stage cultivators in the Immortal Realm's Dugu Mountain, and... there were also some Ascension stage cultivators!

In this situation, Qi Xiaoyu daring to make a move against Dugu Mountain not only warmed Chu Mo's heart, but also made him worried for her.

...

Dugu Yu had been having a rough time recently. Since his ascension from the Spirit Realm to the Immortal Realm, he had never encountered such misfortune as he had lately.

Firstly, he had laid a trap to kill Chu Mo, which had failed, resulting in considerable criticism.

Many cultivators who had coordinated with him in the past accused him of greed, which was why Chu Mo escaped. This left Dugu Yu indignant and unable to voice his side, as his explanations were completely ignored by the others.

Being unable to capture Chu Mo and letting him escape caused Dugu Yu to return to Dugu Mountain with a heavy heart, intending to regroup and seek another opportunity.

But just then, disciples of Dugu Mountain began to meet with disaster one after another.

At first, Dugu Yu did not take it seriously. Although Dugu Mountain was not a major sect in the Immortal Realm, it had many disciples; the death of ten or eight would not draw his attention as the sect leader.

However, gradually, as time passed, the disciples of Dugu Mountain who died possessed increasingly stronger abilities!

Until recently, the fall of an external elder at the pinnacle of the Mahayana stage in Dugu Mountain finally grabbed Dugu Yu's attention.

Although the external elder was at the pinnacle of the Mahayana stage, he was one of the few in the Immortal Realm's Dugu Mountain with formidable combat power. Known for his explosive temper and aggressive personality, he was the kind who would fight to the death at a moment's notice. That sheer combat power was, for the most part, hammered out in countless battles.

Such a powerful individual, even an Ascension-stage cultivator one level higher than him, would not easily provoke him.

Yet such a strong person died without a sound. His soul lamp simply went out, scaring the disciple watching over the soul lamps almost to pieces.

Following the death of this external elder, several more Mahayana-stage cultivators died in quick succession. Dugu Yu finally realized that someone was targeting them! Enraged, he sent people to investigate the matter, wanting to know which enemy was responsible.

Dugu Yu, being able to hold his ground in the Immortal Realm, naturally had his own expertise. Although the Dugu Mountain sect was not large, it had a significant foundation!

This investigation was shocking, nearly leaving everyone in disbelief—because the cause of the recent substantial casualties in Dugu Mountain was... actually one person! And furthermore... a woman!

"How is this possible?" Dugu Yu was so furious his eyes bulged as he roared loudly. After calming down, he had no choice but to accept this fact.

He then dispatched a large number of Dugu Mountain's experts to capture that bold and reckless woman.

"I want to see who it is... who dares to cross Dugu Mountain like this." The pupils of Dugu Yu glinted with a knife-like sharpness, vowing to catch the person responsible.

In the following days, good news finally arrived—the woman was injured!

"Ancestor, rest assured, it won't take many days for us to find that woman," one of Dugu Mountain's Mahayana elders communicated the good news to Dugu Yu using a transmission stone.

Dugu Yu, stationed in the inner sanctum of Dugu Mountain, couldn't help showing a cold smile on his face. He gritted his teeth and said, "Dare to be an enemy of Dugu Mountain, I will make you regret being born into this world!"

"Is that so?" Suddenly, a cold female voice came from behind him.

Without any hesitation, Dugu Yu didn't even turn his head, and several fierce attacks were launched towards his rear!

This was the most secretive place in the whole Dugu Mountain!

It was also the safest place in Dugu Mountain!

How this woman got in, Dugu Yu no longer had the leisure to ponder; he had a cold sweat in shock and made what he thought was the correct reaction.

But it was only what he thought to be the correct reaction.

Because at the moment Dugu Yu launched an attack behind him, a chilling sensation came from his neck.

Then, Dugu Yu's head was directly severed from his body and fell to the ground.

Dugu Yu, with his head cut off, did not die. For the first and last time, he finally saw the woman's face clearly!

She was dressed in black, with a seductive figure, her face veiled, her features indiscernible. But the skin that was visible was as white as snow.

Dugu Yu's secondary primordial spirit tried to escape, but the woman in black stabbed it with a sword. Immense essence energy... flowed continuously into the woman's body through the sword in her hand.

The woman's body trembled slightly as though in pain, but she clenched her teeth and didn't make a sound.

In less than the time it takes an incense stick to burn, she forcibly extracted all the essence energy contained within the secondary primordial spirit of a transcendent cultivator like Dugu Yu—leaving nothing behind!

Dugu Yu's head could only watch, lying face up, as the woman in black carried out her actions, utterly speechless.

Until the very end, when his secondary primordial spirit was completely extinguished, Dugu Yu's head instantly aged by countless years and turned into an extremely old man with a face full of wrinkles. Looking at the woman in black, he asked, "Who are you... What enmity do I have with you?"

The woman in black cast a disdainful glance at him, "Enmity? You're not even worth it!"

With that, her figure flashed and turned into a wisp of black smoke, vanishing within the most secretive and safest cave dwelling of Dugu Mountain in the Immortal Realm.

A moment later, a wail of extreme agony echoed throughout the Immortal Realm's Dugu Mountain, "The Ancestor's soul lamp has extinguished! The Ancestor has fallen! The Ancestor has fallen! My heavens... Dugu Mountain... is finished!"
