Shushan Sword Sect.

Boom!

The space outside the mountain suddenly shattered, and a blood-soaked figure, aided by the light of a sword, burst out from the deep void.

Looking at the familiar mountain gate ahead, Elder Xuan Yuan, with a pale face, felt a sense of relief, but thinking of that hateful Willow God, his eyes couldn't help but show a venomous look.

"Damn mortal wild demon, daring to attack me, I must tear you to pieces!"

Filled with hatred, Elder Xuan Yuan quickly flew towards the mountain gate.

He was not like that Willow God, with no foundation, since he couldn't fight the opponent himself, he would report the incident to the sect.

Inside the Shushan Great Hall.

A group of elders was summoned for a meeting.

"Xuan Yuan, weren't you supposed to handle the state religion affairs with the Great Qin Empire? How did you end up like this?"

As soon as Xuan Jian entered, he saw the pale-faced Xuan Yuan, who was clearly suffering from severe injuries, his aura was weak.

Hearing this, Xuan Yuan wore a bitter expression. This time he suffered a major setback, not expecting that Willow God would dare to act, nor did he expect the opponent's strength to be so strong, possibly not weaker than Thunder Tiger King.

"Xuan Yuan, who injured you..."

Seeing Xuan Jian's silence, Xuan Jian frowned, wanting to ask more, but was interrupted by Elder Xuan Xu with white hair beside him.

"Xuan Jian, sit down first, let's wait until the others arrive!"

Hearing that, Xuan Jian paused in his reply, nodded, and sat down beside Xuan Yuan.

Not long after, most elders of the Shushan Sword Sect gathered, but each one, upon entering, would glance at Xuan Yuan, with a face full of surprise.

"Alright, everyone is here except those with pressing matters. Xuan Yuan, go ahead!"

Elder Xuan Xu raised his hand to quiet the crowd, nodding toward Xuan Yuan.

Already filled with rage, Xuan Yuan spoke with added exaggeration, "Everyone, I originally went to the Great Qin Empire to deal with securing our sect as the state religion, but that Willow God of the Great Qin Empire was arrogant and did not regard our Shushan Sword Sect at all...

In the end, all four of us were severely injured by that Willow God. Seeing the opponent about to kill us, we had no choice but to escape by any means."

The elders felt humiliated upon hearing this, their fury ignited.

"Outrageous! Just a mere Willow Demon dares to harm members of our Shushan Sword Sect, this offense is unforgivable, and this beast must not be allowed to live!"

Elder Xuan Jian abruptly stood up, his anger evident, his face becoming more terrifying with the sword scar.

Previously, Thunder Tiger King brought disgrace to their sect, and now, if this Willow Demon roams free, how could the Shushan Sword Sect compete with other ancient sects, they might as well close the mountain and be sitting ducks.

"Exactly, we dealt with Thunder Tiger King before, and now a Willow Demon dares trouble us? Do they think the Shushan Sword Sect is easy to bully?"

Opposite, Elder Xuan Huang, with long eyebrows and a burly physique, nodded with an immensely sullen look, emanating a thick murderous aura.

"This Willow Demon must be eradicated, or where will our sect's honor stand?"

"This Willow Demon has a death wish, we must contact the other three major sects immediately..."

"..."

The elders were all filled with murderous intent.

While Shushan Sword Sect was in fury, the Celestial Demon Sect's hall echoed with roars of anger.

"Good, good, daring to harm elders of our Celestial Demon Sect, we will make this Willow Demon wish for death over life!"

"Our Celestial Demon Sect will not be humiliated. Since Elder Youyuan was severely injured, let this little Willow Demon pay the price with its life!"

"The title of state religion belongs to none other than our Celestial Demon Sect. This Willow Demon dares to delay, they've chosen the path to death..."

"..."

Besides, the other two major sects reacted similarly. Failing the state religion affairs, with their elders heavily injured by a wild demon, they were furious, shouting to show that Willow Demon what they're capable of.

...

Imperial Capital.

The damaged courtyard had already been repaired by Dean Lin's arrangements.

The willow tree was surrounded by a green mist, the True Body Illusion of Willow God floated within, eyes closed, with mystical powers surging around, like a constant stream enveloping the surroundings.

Willow God was circulating the Spiritual Power within, recovering the consumption caused by previously wielding the Power of Earth Veins.

Opening her eyes slowly, Willow God frowned slightly, feeling an inexplicable sense of impending doom.

"Could it be because of the four great sects?"

Thinking of the four who fled, Willow God's expression gradually became grave.

Earlier, she could have stopped them, but refrained from killing to prevent causing an irreversible enmity.

But now it seems, the opponents do not plan to spare her.

Resolutely, Willow God composed herself, forming hand signs, instantly, nine Jade Willow Leaves fell from the willow tree, flying before Willow God.

As Willow God's hands moved, the nine Jade Willow Leaves began vibrating furiously, changing positions in the air, forming various arrays, and as time passed, the jade glow on the leaves grew increasingly dazzling.

Bang~

Suddenly, three of the originally fine nine Jade Willow Leaves instantly shattered into scattered points of jade glow, the remaining six leaves dimmed, turning yellow and withered, falling helplessly.

Seeing this, Willow God's face turned grim, the recent calculations clearly warning her of a life-and-death trial ahead.

This situation made Willow God realize that those ancient sects truly intended to take action against her.

After a long silence, determination flashed in Willow God's eyes, realizing that she couldn't overcome this crisis alone, she decided to seek assistance.

In the next moment, Willow God's True Body Illusion shattered, transforming into a Jade Willow Branch piercing through space, disappearing into the void.

......

Tiger King Ridge, Peach Grove Valley.

Jiang Che was lying before Bodhi Cave, checking his communicator, which displayed the news of the conflict between Willow God and the ancient sects.

Watching the video, where four figures fell like kites, Jiang Che's lips curled upward.

"Seems like Fellow Taoist Willow God has won; these ancient sect elders are really unfortunate, encountering someone like Fellow Taoist Willow God capable of explosive growth, it's a blessing from their ancestors to escape with their lives."

Jiang Che displayed a schadenfreude smile.

Boom!

At that moment, a loud noise came from above Tiger King Ridge, as space shattered, and a Jade Willow Branch emerged.

"Willow God?"

Surprised, Jiang Che looked up, seeing the willow branch, he spoke unexpectedly.

"Fellow Taoist Thunder Tiger, please come out, I have something to ask of you."

A dense green mist poured from the willow branch, Willow God materialized again, stepping out into the air above Peach Grove Valley, speaking loudly.
