"Who goes there?"

The two guards at the Huang family gate shouted loudly.

A silver flash passed by.

'Splat!'

The two didn't even have time to scream before they went to meet King Yama.

Inside the Huang family residence, in a certain courtyard.

The forty-something Patriarch Huang was leisurely lying on a master's chair, holding an ancient book with an expression of enjoyment.

Beside him, the elegant Madam Huang wore a face full of worry.

"Long Gang left with that Immortal Master, where did they go, how long will they be gone, and you know nothing, yet you're still here reading?"

"What do you women understand, this is his immortal destiny, others would envy him too much!

Once the boy becomes an Immortal Master, how could he forget his parents? He will naturally return."

"Ah, immortal destiny and masters, I don't care, I just want my son by my side..."

Before Madam Huang could finish, she looked panicked towards the courtyard's exit.

From there came many screams, along with the sound of 'crackling' explosions.

"Who is so bold!" Patriarch Huang screamed in anger.

In all his years as patriarch, he had never encountered anyone daring to trespass his home.

Patriarch Huang jumped up from the chair, drawing a gold dragon-patterned dagger from his waist.

Before he could even take two steps, a brilliant red burst in.

"Who killed my junior brother?" The female Daoist, dismounting her horse at some unknown time, asked indifferently.

Before her, a silver spot floated in the air like a small fish.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a three-inch long handleless small sword.

"You are... Immortal Master!" Fear flashed in Patriarch Huang's eyes, "I-I don't know his identity."

"You don't know his identity, yet your son apprenticed under him?"

"He killed my sect's disciple, an unforgivable criminal, how dare you, how dare you?"

After the female Daoist spoke, Patriarch Huang's face changed dramatically, forcefully pushing Madam Huang aside.

"Run!"

He charged at the female Daoist decisively with the Flowing Gold Dagger in hand.

His Secret Blood was surging through him, making him a glaring figure of red light.

From its strength, a Full Cycle seemed almost within reach.

But the female Daoist didn't make any move.

The small silver sword before her vanished with a 'whoosh'.

'Splat!'

Patriarch Huang clutched his chest in disbelief.

He hadn't even seen the small sword move before being struck.

There was no way to block it; the difference was too great!

With a face full of despair and blood pouring from his mouth, he gasped, "S-spare my wo…"

'Splat!'

Right after, Madam Huang fell grasping her throat, eyes wide open, dead with regrets.

"Today, the Huang family will be extinguished."

The female Daoist's icy voice echoed throughout the Huang estate.

The silver light danced sharply over the Huang estate, flames roared within, and thick black smoke rose straight to the sky.

The female Daoist rode her horse fluidly out of the place.

Though she killed many, her red Daoist robe remained spotless.

She didn't even glance at the ruins of the Huang estate, speeding towards another direction.

At the Su Family, flanking the vermillion gate, two huge white stone lions stood lifelike.

The high white walls stretched endlessly, showing the profound heritage of a grand family.

A polished rosewood plaque above the gate displayed the gold characters 'Su Mansion', attracting attention.

Inside the mansion, a finely dressed old butler smiled broadly at the servants nearby, "The patriarch said, to celebrate the young lady joining the Immortal Sect, everyone's monthly wages will double this month!"

"Great, great!"

"The patriarch is truly kind-hearted!"

"We're all blessed by the young lady; we must pray for her daily blessings!"

The servants, stewards, and maids all wore expressions of joy.

Elsewhere in the mansion, a deep dialogue transpired.

"Has the young master been settled?"

"Rest assured, Great Elder, I have handled it…"

'Boom!'

The vermillion gate exploded into pieces as a fiery red figure marched into the Su family like a demon from hell.

"The Su family houses Su Xiangzi, who has apprenticed under the enemy nation's Demon Path.

Under major martial law, they are guilty of treason, punishable by family execution!"

A cold and clear voice drifted above the entire Su family.

Even beyond the Su residence, it left listeners aghast.

Soon after, the Su family residence was engulfed in flames, similarly to the Huang family, with thick smoke soaring skyward, shaking Tai City to its core.

Located next to the Su family, the Yuan Mansion was also targeted by the female Daoist due to its proximity.

"Immortal Master, none of us has apprenticed under the Demon Path!"

"It's an injustice, truly an injustice..."

"Damn it, no explaining to this madwoman; we'll fight to the end!"

Facing extermination, the martial artists of the Yuan Family shared a common adversary, picking up weapons and charging at the female Daoist.

Unfortunately, the strength gap was too significant.

Under the female Daoist's flying sword, they one by one turned into spirits, and the Yuan family, too, was consumed by fire, reduced to ashes.

From the City Lord's Mansion, the Drunken Immortal Tower, to the Huang family, Su family, and Yuan family.

News of the female Immortal Master's massacre in the city spread quickly, causing people to hastily relay the news.

All the major powers in Tai City received word and began to take action.

Extreme Fist Sect.

Sect Leader Wei Youdao promptly dismissed all cleaning grannies, cooking chefs, gardeners tending the branches, and even Outer Disciples.

He urgently gathered Inner Sect Disciples, Inner Disciples, and all Distinguished Elders to discuss a plan of action.

"What do you suggest? That crazy woman has already massacred the Yuan family; we might be next!" Elder Zhou Bufeng spoke in agitation.

His Qi-Blood was extremely vigorous, only a step away from becoming a Martial Artist.

Though previously gravely injured in the battle against the Heavy Sword Sect, he had recovered over half.

Yet he knew, Immortal Masters' might and martial artists are never on the same level.

Even a Martial Artist could barely withstand them.

"We cannot match her force; retreat is the only option." Wei Youdao swiftly decided, "After our clash with the Heavy Sword Sect, I've arranged secret underground chambers in the city; you can temporarily shelter there.

When the situation calms, we'll sneak out of the city."

"That's all we can do," Elder Zhang sighed helplessly.

Fighting against an Immortal Master is futile; everyone agreed.

"Wait, where's Liu Yi? I haven't seen him," a surprised elder noted Lou Yi's absence.

"He rushed out upon hearing the Su family was in trouble," the one-armed Chen Muju said solemnly.

"This..." Wei Youdao and Elder Zhang's faces changed upon hearing this.

But things had progressed to this point; they could only prioritize the current sect members.

Then, Zhou Bufeng, Elder Zhang, and others led the core members of the Extreme Fist Sect to various secret locations.

Soon, the Extreme Fist Sect was an empty ghost place.
