The visitors were naturally Wang Junze and Luo Qingxuan.

Under the moonlight, the two stood side by side, quietly waiting for Yuan Shouyi to walk into the trap.

"As long as the City Lord is alive, how could I bear to die first?"

Taking a leisurely step forward, Wang Junze calmly spoke: "City Lord Yuan, have you forgotten? I told you before, I must kill you!"

"Whether you ally with the Four Symbols Sect or Prince Yu... what I said must be honored!"

Wang Junze's voice was soft, yet the killing intent in his words sent chills down the spine.

Whether it was the fall of the Wang Family, Su Yuwei being injured and forced to leave the Northern Domain, or the Profound Moon Sword Sect almost being annihilated, it was all linked to Yuan Shouyi. This was a true vendetta as deep as the sea!

But, after all, Yuan Shouyi was no ordinary person. After a brief shock, he quickly regained his composure.

His eyes narrowed as he looked at Wang Junze, sneering: "Wang Junze, I admit I underestimated you a bit, but... with just the two of you, what makes you confident you can kill me?"

Even though Yuan Shouyi had withdrawn to the edge of the battlefield, he still had thousands of elite personal guards by his side. These guards were among the best, not inferior to the Great Snow Wolf Riders.

And Wang Junze and Luo Qingxuan were ultimately just two people.

All the experts of the Profound Moon Sword Sect were engaged in this great battle, and Yuan Shouyi was confident that no one else could assist Wang Junze.

In other words, he only needed to fend off the attacks of Wang Junze and Luo Qingxuan.

One was Heaven-Stepping, the other Void Shattering, though strong, not unreachable.

"Then let's test it!"

With a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth, Wang Junze stepped forward and suddenly unsheathed his sword, charging towards Yuan Shouyi!

Boom!

In an instant, the overwhelming Sword Intent erupted, appearing particularly stunning under the night sky!

The sword was like a galaxy falling from the nine heavens!

The dazzling sword light tore through the night, like a rolling galaxy, sweeping straight towards the cavalry in front.

"Form the array!"

In an instant, Yuan Shouyi's personal guards reacted, spears like a forest, transforming into a terrifying cold light in the night, directly meeting this terrifying sword light.

The battle array in the army was inherently defensive against powerful attacks, otherwise, if one or two powerhouses could cut through an army, these forces would be meaningless.

Moreover, there were also experts within the army.

In fact, even among Yuan Shouyi's guards, there were several hidden Heaven-Stepping Realm powerhouses. Although their cultivation was mostly propped up by resources and Secret Techniques, and couldn't compare to the disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect, they could still unleash extraordinary power when combined with the battle array.

Rumble!

Amidst the terrifying roar, this sword fell upon the battle array, cutting through a wave of spears, killing at least hundreds!

Yet it was only capable of this.

Unmoved, Yuan Shouyi, hidden among the guards, looked at Wang Junze and sneered: "How many more swords like that can you strike?"

No matter how strong a cultivator is, True Qi is limited. They are not Saint Realm powerhouses who can cut through tens of thousands of soldiers single-handedly, it's simply not possible.

Yuan Shouyi banked on this, which is why he was fearless.

However, in the next moment, Luo Qingxuan's form suddenly vanished into the void.

Wang Junze was just Heaven-Stepping, unable to bypass these soldiers to directly attack Yuan Shouyi, but Luo Qingxuan could slip into the void, ignoring the soldiers' obstruction, and strike directly at Yuan Shouyi!

"Zheng!"

In a breath, the sound of metal clashing suddenly rang out.

In the next moment, a pair of short halberds appeared in Yuan Shouyi's hands, firmly blocking Luo Qingxuan's sword edge!

Although the warhorse beneath him couldn't withstand the terrifying impact and died instantly, Yuan Shouyi unexpectedly blocked Luo Qingxuan's sword head-on!

"Divine Travel?!"

For a moment, a shock flashed in Luo Qingxuan's eyes, staring intently at Yuan Shouyi!

The world believed Yuan Shouyi was merely Heaven-Stepping. Ordinarily, he concealed his aura so well no one could discern his true strength.

But in this life-or-death battle, Luo Qingxuan realized that the opponent had already broken through to Divine Travel!

After Void Shattering, only then is it Divine Travel!

In other words, Yuan Shouyi's real strength surpassed Luo Qingxuan by a whole Great Realm.

That's why he could withstand Luo Qingxuan's sword!

Otherwise, even at the same level, he would not be a match for a prodigy like Luo Qingxuan.

Too well hidden!

Previously, Zhou Dongfei had actually reminded Wang Junze that Yuan Shouyi's true strength was bound to be much stronger than it appeared, but neither Wang Junze nor Luo Qingxuan expected him to be hiding so deeply.

No wonder Yuan Shouyi remained confident despite the threat from Wang Junze and Luo Qingxuan!

Being a Divine Travel powerhouse himself, coupled with the protection of these thousands of personal guards, killing him was indeed too challenging.

"Hahaha, surprised?"

With his true strength exposed, Yuan Shouyi immediately laughed, eyes full of contempt: "I have stood firm in the Northern Domain for over twenty years. How could I possibly be just Heaven-Stepping? You want to kill me? You're not worthy!"

Know that, whether allying with the Four Symbols Sect or Prince Yu, Yuan Shouyi's true intention was to seize full control of the Northern Domain, becoming a figure like the King of Changlin!

If he had only Heaven-Stepping cultivation, he wouldn't even have the ability to protect himself, let alone aspire to rival the King of Changlin?

At this moment, both Wang Junze and Luo Qingxuan's expressions changed.

"Since you've come, don't leave. Don't you love playing dead? Today, I'll send you on your way personally!"

With a terrifying killing intent in his eyes, in the next moment, Yuan Shouyi's aura erupted, shifting from defense to attack, actively charging at Luo Qingxuan!

Meanwhile, the surrounding guards coordinated with him, joining in the assault on the two!

Originally, it was Wang Junze and Luo Qingxuan's carefully devised plan to hunt Yuan Shouyi, but now the situation had suddenly reversed, trapping the two in immediate peril.

"Kill!"

At this point, even if Luo Qingxuan and Wang Junze wanted to escape, it was too late; they could only fight to the death!

The sounds of battle were deafening!

Indeed, it wasn't just Wang Junze and Luo Qingxuan's side; the entire battlefield had turned extraordinarily brutal!

The powerhouses of the Four Symbols Sect had also arrived, but due to the prior agreement with Zhou Dongfei, this time the Four Symbols Sect didn't immediately kick someone while they're down, but instead willingly fought against the Deserters. However, everyone knew clearly that if the Profound Moon Sword Sect showed any signs of weakening, the Four Symbols Sect wouldn't hesitate to deliver the fatal blow to them!
