On Spiritual Essence Peak, besides Jiang Rilan and others originally stationed here, True Core Elder Jiang Ridong, Jiang Richu, and others from the clan also arrived.

The anomaly of the Cyan Flame Divine Sparrow forming a Core had alarmed the entire family; even the Nascent Soul ancestors personally took note, so who wouldn't come?

Everyone stood outside the closed-door cultivation site.

The massive stone door slowly opened.

Everyone looked on as a man-sized Divine Bird emerged, its cyan feathers shimmering, emitting an aura that made even True Core cultivators' hearts tremble!

"The Divine Bird has succeeded!"

"This... isn't just a True Core, is it?"

"Such powerful aura, definitely stronger than True Core!"

Everyone exclaimed.

"This... isn't True Core, but Golden Core!"

Jiang Rilan, knowledgeable and experienced, sensed it and spoke out involuntarily.

Golden Core!

As soon as these words were spoken, many elders of the Jiang family were shocked and then extremely delighted.

"What, Golden Core! This Divine Bird is too strong, too strong, no wonder it could produce such terrifying anomalies!"

"With the Golden Core Divine Bird, achieving Nascent Soul is just around the corner. Our Jiang Clan will prosper, prosper!"

"Heaven bless the Jiang Clan!"

They all shouted excitedly.

"Hmm, something's off..."

But then, Jiang Rilan frowned deeply.

Behind the Divine Bird, a figure was also emerging.

Li An!

"Wu Qin, you're not dead... wait, you've formed a Core Formation?!"

Jiang Rilan was suddenly shocked.

Everyone present was also puzzled and suspicious.

"Prime Minister Wu Qin was supposed to be dead..."

"He was the Divine Bird's food, so how is he still alive, and even became a True Core cultivator?"

"Be careful, there's something wrong, something definitely wrong!"

Many core figures of the Jiang family were astonished, and Jiang Rilan's face turned grim. With a swift wave of his hand, the surrounding Mountain Protection Array activated layer by layer, sealing the area completely.

First, control Li An!

"Patriarch Jiang,"

Li An remained calm, stepped out, and looked at Jiang Rilan, "perhaps what you should be concerned about now is not me, but Young Master Ruoxu."

"Is he alright?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Rilan's expression changed even more. He had sensed something was wrong—the Taiyi Following Array had been in operation all along, but Jiang Ruoxu seemed to never have succeeded...

He hurriedly sent someone to activate the Taiyi Following Array not far away.

But the Array backfired, instantly killing two Fake Pill cultivators.

"There's an unforeseen event!"

"What's happening?"

Everyone looked over.

In the Taiyi Following Array, a woman in white was already flying up—it was Tan Qingxue.

She gazed at Li An emerging from the closed-site and said solemnly, "You actually dared to take my fruit! Stole my Divine Bird!"

Li An ignored her and addressed the people of Jiang Clan, "She is the one behind the scenes. You've all been deceived. To seize the Divine Bird, she has most likely already killed Jiang Ruoxu—"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Rilan's scalp tingled, and his eyes twitched violently. He had a feeling that Jiang Ruoxu might already be doomed, and the fury and indignation over being plotted against boiled over as he shouted:

"Seize her!"

"No one is allowed to leave!"

The Array activated, attacking Tan Qingxue.

Meanwhile, from a certain peak of the Jiang family, a terrifying spiritual power hand spanned dozens of miles, reaching directly to grab Tan Qingxue!

A Nascent Soul master made a move!

In a split second of life and death, Tan Qingxue still glared at Li An and said, "This vendetta, I will repay one day!"

As she spoke, her figure suddenly vanished from mid-air.

There was only a flash of light.

When the layered power of the Arrays on Spiritual Essence Peak fell, when the giant Nascent Soul hand arrived with a bang, a giant explosion sounded in the air, the air seemed to boil, shockwaves spread, dust surged on the ground, and even True Core cultivators felt the fierce wind in their faces, involuntarily taking a few steps back!

"Teleportation Array!"

"It's actually a Teleportation Array!"

"Who exactly is Tan Xue, she..."

The once-righteous Jiang Clan experts now looked at each other, feeling an inexplicable chill and dismay.

Teleportation Array, such a thing is too advanced.

Even though the Jiang Clan is a Nascent Soul family, they barely have any contact with it and only have some knowledge of it.

But Tan Xue actually has mastery over it...

This implies that Tan Xue's background could be extremely significant.

Even the Nascent Soul expert who acted had no intention of pursuing further, remaining silent for a long time.

In front of the cave.

Li An was slightly taken aback; he knew from Shangguan Xiaoxiao that Tan Xue's level was not low... but he didn't expect it to be at such a high level?

"Between you and her, who is stronger?"

Li An couldn't help but ask in his mind.

Now that he's disrupted Tan Qingxue's plan to seize the bird, and she has left a vow of revenge, Li An was feeling a bit uneasy...

The other party is too strong!

"You moron, what class is she, compared to me?!"

In the Spirit Platform, Shangguan Xiaoxiao was enraged, as if feeling underestimated, "This kind of person didn't even have the qualification to serve me tea and water back in the Spirit Realm!"

Li An: "And now?"

Shangguan Xiaoxiao: "..."

...

Jiang Rilan and others, their faces changing repeatedly, their minds filled with a thousand thoughts.

Coming back to his senses, Jiang Rilan quickly walked to the Taiyi Following Array.

"Ruoxu!"

A mournful cry instantly rang out.

He picked up Jiang Ruoxu's corpse, and for a moment, tears flowed from his old eyes, gritting his teeth, "Tan Xue!!"

A group of elders saw this, their hearts all extremely heavy.

Jiang Ruoxu was the last surviving core seed of the Jiang family's three core figures, already named as the young family master, being groomed as the successor, and now...

"Alas..."

"I never thought our Jiang Clan would be schemed against like this!"

They sighed in helplessness.

"And this Wu Qin!"

An elder spoke coldly, "He deserves to die too!"
