Wen Wanyu's reaction was incredibly swift.

Unfortunately, she was only at Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer.

On the other hand, Bai Meiniang was at Middle Stage of Demon Foundation.

Like Shen Xuan, those who can resist Foundation Establishment Cultivators while in Late Stage of Qi Cultivation are very rare.

The full-force attack of the Sun Blade Wheel seemed like a child's toy to Bai Meiniang.

Bai Meiniang laughed coquettishly.

She summoned a pair of short white bone knives in front of her.

With a "clang" sound.

The seemingly powerful Sun Blade Wheel was effortlessly deflected by the short white bone knives.

Without losing momentum, it turned towards Wen Wanyu, who was frantically fleeing on the Moon Blade Wheel.

Wen Wanyu dared not take it head-on.

She maneuvered the Moon Blade Wheel to dodge.

However.

Bai Meiniang sped towards her like a ghost.

The short white bone knives emitted a pale light, hitting Wen Wanyu accurately in the back.

The world spun.

Wen Wanyu felt a wave of dread, her Spiritual Power suddenly chaotic and uncontrollable, causing her to collapse on the ground.

Not far away.

Wen Zijian sensed something amiss and shouted loudly.

"Stop!"

A streak of golden light transformed, ready to rescue his daughter.

Yet, at this moment.

Behind Wen Zijian, a searing heat surged forth.

A mass of flames, filled with a violent aura capable of incinerating everything, swept towards him.

The heat was so intense that the air became distorted, causing the surrounding plants to wither from dehydration.

"How dare you!"

Wen Zijian, filled with fury, had to pause.

Golden light blazed.

The Sun and Moon Dual Blades spun rapidly, slicing towards the mass of flames.

With a "bang" sound.

The Sun and Moon Dual Blades flew back into Wen Zijian's hands.

The flames trembled, slightly reducing in size, revealing Yuan Huaixin's figure.

At this moment, Yuan Huaixin was not in good shape, blood oozing from his features, his expression twisted.

"Very well. Brother Wen, I have truly experienced your power."

After saying that, he coughed lightly.

Clearly, he had been injured by Wen Zijian, hitting his organs.

Foundation Establishment Cultivators rarely fight to the death amongst themselves.

Usually, they stop before things escalate.

Even if one can defeat the other, if they cannot kill them, the consequences are endless.

Liken Yuan Huaixin's full-on assault.

The two have formed a deadly feud that can never be resolved.

"Brother-in-law, you are amazing!"

Bai Meiniang controlled Wen Wanyu, speaking with a joyous tone.

"Brother-in-law?"

Wen Zijian's face changed drastically.

"Did she send you here?"

"Indeed! Otherwise?"

Bai Meiniang looked helpless: "Brother-in-law. You know sister's temper. Meiniang wouldn't dare upset her."

"Don't call me brother-in-law!"

Wen Zijian took a deep breath.

Quickly, he turned to Yuan Huaixin.

"Why?"

"Why did you collude with the Demon Cultivators?"

Yuan Huaixin took out a medicine bottle, swallowed a Spirit Pill, and stopped bleeding from his features.

"No collusion. Just a deal."

"If it were three or five thousand Spirit Stones, I certainly wouldn't betray you."

"But, the offer was simply too tempting."

"A full fifty thousand Spirit Stones!"

Yuan Huaixin spoke regretfully: "We've known each other for twenty years, and fifty thousand Spirit Stones seem worth it."

Wen Zijian nodded.

"Fifty thousand Spirit Stones are indeed a lot."

"Yes, they are indeed. You can understand, can't you?"

"I can understand! But that doesn't mean I condone it!"

Wen Zijian roared, the Sun and Moon Dual Blade Wheel spun again, slashing towards Yuan Huaixin.

Yuan Huaixin dared not take it head-on.

In a flicker of flames, his figure had already retreated near Bai Meiniang.

He hid right behind Wen Wanyu.

"Despicable!"

Wen Zijian resentfully recalled the Sun and Moon Dual Blade Wheel.

"Bai Meiniang, if you release my daughter, I will spare your life!"

At this moment, Wen Zijian held the Sun and Moon Dual Blade Wheel, standing proudly, fearless of the two Cultivators of the same level opposite him.

"Otherwise, even if I die, I'll make sure you fall here with me!"

Bai Meiniang sighed softly.

"Brother-in-law, Meiniang doesn't want this either."

"Even cursed by the White Bone-Devouring Heart Poison and still powerful, you truly are the man my sister chose."

Bai Meiniang never intended to fight Wen Zijian head-on.

She only needed to take Wen Wanyu back to the White Bone Sect to complete her task.

Whether Wen Zijian lived or died was irrelevant.

However, Wen Zijian's resistance to the White Bone-Devouring Heart Poison caught her by surprise.

Yuan Huaixin's expression changed suddenly, his vicious gaze fixated on Wen Zijian.

"We cannot let this person go! Otherwise, if my identity is revealed, you'll also suffer!"

"Meiniang, a weak woman, what can I do? Brother-in-law is too strong, and the White Bone-Erosion Heart Poison can't harm him!"

"Oh, sister may not want you, but Meiniang wants you!"

Bai Meiniang's voice was sweet, showing her admiration for Wen Zijian.

"Alright! Bai Meiniang, return my daughter to me. I will marry you formally and become Dao companions, never changing my heart!" Wen Zijian said calmly.

"But, I don't want to be a widow! Brother-in-law, just die."

As soon as she finished speaking.

A pair of short white bone knives flew swiftly.

At the same time.

Yuan Huaixin's Flame Saber struck fiercely towards Wen Zijian.

Their coordination was seamless, and their speed was incredible.

Ordinary Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivators find it very challenging to fend off the combined attack of both.

Wen Zijian snorted coldly.

The Sun Blade Wheel barely took the brunt of the Flame Saber.

The Moon Blade Wheel spun dexterously, knocking the short white bone knives away.

Their attacks were easily deflected by Wen Zijian.

Yuan Huaixin and Bai Meiniang were taken aback.

Wen Zijian's strength exceeded their expectations.

"The Golden Cultivator from the Golden Concealment Sect is truly powerful!"

"Wen Zijian, sister really didn't misjudge you."

Bai Meiniang withdrew the short white bone knives, took a deep breath.

Then, she took out a White Bone Bow, grabbed a White Bone Arrow, aiming at Wen Zijian.

Yuan Huaixin likewise gripped the Flame Saber, eyes fixated on Wen Zijian, slowly approaching.

Wen Zijian laughed mockingly.

He planned to control the Sun and Moon Dual Blade Wheel.

Suddenly, his face changed.

His body slightly swayed.

"Wen Zijian, your strength exceeds Meiniang's expectations. However, the White Bone-Erosion Heart Poison is a secret technique of our White Bone Sect, you underestimate it!"

Bai Meiniang locked her White Bone Bow onto Wen Zijian, her face cold as frost.

"Fellow Daoist Wen, we have had some connection. Accept your fate, the more you struggle, the more painful it is, what's the point!"

Yuan Huaixin advised sincerely.

Wen Zijian said nothing.

Forcibly supporting himself.

His complexion growing increasingly pale.

When the White Bone-Erosion Heart Poison acts up, it's like thousands of insects gnawing at the heart, the Dao Foundation Spirit Sea begins to become chaotic and uncontrollable.

If Wen Zijian slackens even slightly, he'll perish with his Dao dispelled.

Yuan Huaixin would never allow him to return to the Sect alive.

"Die!"

Yuan Huaixin swung his Flame Saber, just about to attack with all his strength, his expression suddenly changed.

His figure swayed, his spiritual power also in disarray.

He turned incredulously towards Bai Meiniang.

"Meiniang, you poisoned me too?"

With a "whoosh" sound.

The White Bone Arrow, which Bai Meiniang had been preparing for a long time, shot towards Wen Zijian.

However, the power of the White Bone Arrow was significantly diminished.

In terms of both force and speed, it was utterly ordinary.

Wen Zijian slightly shifted and dodged the White Bone Arrow's shot.

"It wasn't me!"

"I'm poisoned too."

Bai Meiniang hid behind Wen Wanyu, her voice full of alarm.

She was from the White Bone Sect, expert in using and refining poisons.

Unexpectedly, she too was poisoned.

The virulence was exceedingly rare for her.

"Brother-in-law, when did you poison us?"

Wen Zijian slowly stood up.

Walking step by step towards Yuan Huaixin.

Yuan Huaixin was terrified, his face turning pale.

"Fellow Daoist Wen, don't act rashly!"

However, a gold light, over three zhang long, flashed.

Yuan Huaixin's Flame Saber barely resisted for a few moments before its spiritual light dimmed and extinguished.

"No!"

With a hoarse scream, Yuan Huaixin activated a Tier Two Golden Light Talisman, emanating a Golden Light Spiritual Shield, enveloping himself within.

Before Wen Zijian, a dark gold Flying Sword rose.

This was his Lifebound Magical Treasure after Foundation Establishment.

Taking advantage of Yuan Huaixin's poisoning, catching him off guard, a full-powered strike shattered his Flame Saber.

As for the Golden Light Talisman Yuan Huaixin activated.

Wen Zijian shook his head.

His icy gaze revealed a hint of killing intent.

The dark gold Flying Sword emitted another beam of golden light.

In Yuan Huaixin's terrified eyes, the golden light swelled, cleaving down from above.

The Golden Light Spiritual Shield burst silently like tofu, splitting in two.

"Ah!"

Yuan Huaixin let out a miserable scream.

His body was cleaved in half by the golden light.

It was beyond doubt that he was dead.

Bai Meiniang saw this, held onto Wen Wanyu, turned into a white light, intending to escape.

The Sun and Moon Dual Blade Wheel whistled in, blocking her path.

The short bone knife rested against Wen Wanyu's back.

"Brother-in-law, if you don't let Meiniang go, your niece won't survive either!"

Wen Zijian slowly shook his head.

"I'd rather die than let you take my daughter."

"Wen Zijian, do you really want your niece and Meiniang to perish together?"

Wen Zijian's eyes were filled with white spots.

His face twisted, suddenly aging considerably.

"Hehe. Almost fooled by you! The White Bone-Erosion Heart Poison isn't easy to bear, right!"

Seeing this scene, Bai Meiniang was overjoyed.

"Die!"

A pair of short bone knives shot rapidly toward Wen Zijian's Dantian and forehead.

"Puff puff!"

Wen Zijian narrowly avoided the vital spots, but the short bone knives were embedded in his chest, abdomen, and shoulders.

Black demonic qi rolled out, infiltrating his body.

Wen Zijian sighed deeply, slowly collapsing.

"Finally done!"

Bai Meiniang breathed a sigh of relief.

Just when she slightly relaxed.

Wen Zijian opened his mouth, a gold beam shot swiftly at her.

The speed was incredible, as if traversing space, arriving instantly.

It was his Lifebound Flying Sword, used earlier to slay Yuan Shouxin.

Caught off guard, Bai Meiniang was about to fall under the Flying Sword.

At this moment.

A slender jade hand blocked in front of Bai Meiniang.

Two fingers gently pinched.

The dark gold Flying Sword was caught, trembling incessantly, emitting bursts of sword harmonics.

"Wen Lang, long time no see."

An ethereal, transcendently beautiful female cultivator appeared before Bai Meiniang.

Graceful like the snow, elegant as the clouds, as if a celestial being gazing down on all life, detached from the world.

"Bai Hanmeng!"

Wen Zijian looked incredulously at Bai Hanmeng.

"Even tigers don't eat their own cubs."

"Spare Wanyu, won't you?"

Bai Hanmeng gently shook her head.

"She is your biological daughter!"

Wen Zijian shouted hoarsely.

"So what?"

"I gave her life, I can take it back."

At that moment, Wen Wanyu slowly awakened.

Seeing Bai Hanmeng, she involuntarily called out, "Mother!"

Bai Hanmeng's expression subtly changed.

Quickly, it softened.

"Wanyu, come back with mother."

Wen Wanyu softly said, "Mother, spare father, won't you?"

"I'll go back with you."

Bai Hanmeng gazed at Wen Wanyu.

"All my life, I've never asked you for anything, mother. Mother, just grant me this. I'll listen to you from now on, do anything you want!"

"Good child! You've misunderstood! How could mother kill your father!"

"Mother was just joking with your father!"

Just as she finished speaking.

Bai Hanmeng's face suddenly changed.

"Come out!"

Her body slightly trembled, emitting a mass of ghastly white corpse qi, spreading around.

However, the corpse qi, upon reaching two zhang before Wen Zijian, was blocked by something.

Faintly, it seemed like a human figure.

"Saintess of the White Bone, how many cultivators' lives have you claimed to refine such sinister and poisonous corpse qi?"

Shen Xuan revealed himself, sighed, and spoke in a sorrowful tone.
