Vaguely, a faint thread appeared in her vision, a thread she couldn't see before... but ever since she explored that eerie carpenter's shop, she had grown thin, nearing death, and at this time, she gained some strange powers, such as seeing the divine soul hidden within people's bodies, seeing the wobbling souls of the sick, seeing the souls of the newly deceased leaving their bodies...

And now, on this White Sparrow, she saw that dream-like color of the divine soul again, delicately binding the White Sparrow, yet spreading towards the distant vast horizon, difficult to trace.

"Hey!" Pang Yuanhua suddenly shouted.

Pang Han was startled.

Pang Yuanhua suddenly tilted her head back and shouted, "Hey, Senior, want to make a deal? Senior... Senior!!"

The White Sparrow flew far, Pang Yuanhua was out of breath, the few shouts almost costing her life.

Pang Han stood on the spot in astonishment, suppressing a laugh, then felt a touch of heartache, understanding... the young lady was seeing illusions again.

After a long breath, Pang Yuanhua finally calmed down and called out Pang Han's name.

"What's wrong, miss?"

"Help me to the Frost Sword Sect, I want to see my junior sister."

Pang Han naturally knew who the junior sister she was talking about was, curling her lips she said, "That traitor, she's just waiting for the miss to die so she can take charge of the Frost Sword Sect."

Pang Yuanhua said, "I won't live long anyway, the future Sect Leader of the Frost Sword Sect will definitely be her..."

"Miss, please... don't lose hope, there must be a way, there must..." Pang Han said anxiously.

Pang Yuanhua raised her hand slightly and murmured, "A single tree can be easily broken, but if they are joined together, it's not so easy to break...

General Qing Xiang must be racing against time. We... must also race against time."

Pang Han said, "Miss, what are you talking about?"

Pang Yuanhua succinctly said, "Tian Nan, Shanbao, Hua Mo, the Three Counties are at the brink... we must ally with the forces of the other two counties. To resist foreign enemies together."

As she spoke, she looked around.

Suddenly, she saw that special, dream-like divine soul line across the sky, and even though she couldn't see the White Sparrow, Pang Yuanhua smiled and shouted, "Senior, my name is Pang Yuanhua, what do you think?"

...

...

Pang Yuanhua's words and analysis clearly reached Li Yuan's ears, prompting him to think.

Could that woman really see the divine soul connection?

No matter what, big fish eat little fish, little fish eat shrimp... General Qing Xiang had been in the wild for so long, and only recently was he hurriedly attacking a city, which means General Qing Xiang knew that a more terrifying existence would arrive here soon, so he urgently wanted to capture a county for shelter.

Therefore, the Three County Alliance indeed made sense.

But what was General Qing Xiang afraid of?

Could the arriving person be... Sixth Grade?

Li Yuan knew clearly, as grades increase, power surges, and the advantage of numbers quickly diminishes...

His expression was grave, controlling the White Sparrow to fly high, continuing to follow the retreating General Qing Xiang from above.

General Qing Xiang retreated over ten miles, then set up camp again, staring angrily at a distant city, seemingly furious...

The White Sparrow didn't get close, just waited patiently outside.

After a long while, General Qing Xiang emerged from his tent, looking half enraged, half fearful.

"Why is Chenghua Sect in Hua Mo County?

Why?!!"

"Zhao Xiantong is arriving soon, Zhao Xiantong is arriving soon..."

General Qing Xiang breathed heavily.

"I don't want to encounter him, I don't want to..."

"Calculating the time, he should be arriving soon."

"If I can't capture a county..."

"I... I can only surrender to him... huh!"

The White Sparrow hid behind the dense, gray branches, quietly listening.

Li Yuan sat in the rocking chair by the stove, gently swaying; others thought Elder Li was practicing the demon taming skill inside, so they didn't disturb him...

Li Yuan slowly opened his eyes and said, "Zhao Xiantong..."

"For a Seventh Grade to be so terrified, it can only be a Sixth Grade, or even above...

No! Not above, if it was Fifth Grade, General Qing Xiang wouldn't have any thought of resistance.

So, Zhao Xiantong should be Sixth Grade.

Is a Sixth Grade existence about to reach here?"

Creaaaak...

Creak...

The rocking chair gently swayed.

Li Yuan suddenly stood up, put on his coat, grabbed a jug of wine, and took a carriage to the black market to find Master Li, and chatted with Master Li about the Red Lotus Thieves, and then inadvertently talked about General Qing Xiang and Zhao Xiantong.

Master Li said, "General Qing Xiang is remarkably powerful, probably on the same level as the Sect Leader. Right now he's acting as a king over the mountains, heard these two days he's waging war on Hua Mo County, but... he's a bit too hasty.

Zhao Xiantong was a powerful Seventh Grade Martial Artist with the Red Lotus Thieves a few years ago, back then he nearly stood at the peak of Seventh Grade Martial Artists, now if he's still alive, he should have entered Sixth Grade..."

Li Yuan understood.

Zhao Xiantong, Sixth Grade Early Stage, affiliated with the Red Lotus Thieves, returned from the Central Plains either due to injury or exclusion.

A strong sense of danger surged within him.

If Zhao Xiantong returns and annexes General Qing Xiang's army, he will become even more formidable.

Pang Yuanhua's words echoed in his ears.

"To resist foreign enemies together... to resist foreign enemies together...

A single General Qing Xiang is already causing a county considerable trouble, if Zhao Xiantong's power is added..."

In Li Yuan's mind emerged a series of scenarios like "feint east, strike west," "when the lips are gone, the teeth are cold..."

He seemed to see Zhao Xiantong leading a large army feigning an attack on one county, and when the Three County Alliance was fully defensive, he suddenly attacked another county, capturing it with lightning speed.
