Among the female disciples of Golden Crow Palace, Feng Nie Fairy and Liuyan Fairy have always been the two most concerned about Fang Bai, and they have reminded Fang Bai more than once to be careful of Qingyan Immortal King and Chiyang Immortal King.

Fang Bai was indifferent to this.

In the past six months, Fang Bai’s strength has improved considerably, reaching another critical point of a small realm. If he were to battle Qingyan Immortal King again, he is confident he could defeat Qingyan Immortal King without using treasures such as the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade.

If Chiyang Immortal King and Qingyan Immortal King dare to provoke him again, Fang Bai, who now has the status of Direct Disciple of Golden Crow Immortal Emperor, wouldn’t need to worry about anything.

On this day, Yanshi Immortal Emperor summoned Fang Bai, Chiyang Immortal King, Qingyan Immortal King, Feng Nie Fairy, and Liuyan Fairy, the five disciples, into his Immortal Hall.

"Recently, traces of activity by the remnants of Emperor’s Palace have been discovered by palace disciples near Evil Fire Valley. The five of you will follow the two Stewards from my palace to Evil Fire Valley to hunt them down. Consider it part of your training."

Yanshi Immortal Emperor said with Killing Qi on his face.

Though the Emperor’s Palace has been extinguished for a thousand years, quite a few escaped. These remnants of the Emperor’s Palace are considered a major threat by the eight top Immortal Emperors and their forces, and they show no mercy in eliminating any they discover.

Upon hearing the four words "remnants of Emperor’s Palace," Fang Bai’s heart skipped a beat, and he couldn’t help but ask, "How many Emperor’s Palace disciples have been discovered? What is their cultivation? Do we know their titles?"

Yanshi Immortal Emperor replied, "The news from Evil Fire Valley suggests there is one with mid-level Immortal Emperor Realm cultivation and several with Immortal King Cultivation Realm... As for titles, it’s unclear. Hmph, it doesn’t matter who they are; any disciple of the Emperor’s Palace can be killed!"

Fang Bai thought to himself, "Mid-level Immortal Emperor Realm... That would be one of the minor generals among my hundred and one warlords back in the day... I wonder which one it is..."

As the Emperor’s Palace Master, Fang Bai cannot stand by and watch Emperor’s Palace disciples get killed.

But given the current situation, Fang Bai simply cannot escape first and go to Evil Fire Valley to inform those Emperor’s Palace disciples that they have been targeted by Golden Crow Palace.

Fang Bai was anxious but dared not show it. He was constantly thinking about how to rescue those Emperor’s Palace disciples once he arrived at Evil Fire Valley.

Among the seven Golden Crow Palace disciples sent by Yanshi Immortal Emperor, not mentioning Fang Bai and the other five immortals, just the two Stewards with mid-level Immortal Emperor Realm cultivation alone would be enough to crush the few Emperor’s Palace disciples in Evil Fire Valley.

Fang Bai was anxious, but he couldn’t think of a good plan for the time being and could only take it step by step.

Fang Bai knew that Golden Crow Palace had numerous disciples and a wide network. Once the Emperor’s Palace disciples are targeted by Golden Crow Palace’s disciples, the hope of escaping becomes very slim. Without a good plan, the situation looked grim.

Evil Fire Valley is hundreds of thousands of miles away from Golden Crow Palace; neither near nor far.

To prevent the Emperor’s Palace disciples from escaping, Yanshi Immortal Emperor ordered Fang Bai, Qingyan Immortal King, Chiyang Immortal King, Feng Nie Fairy, and Liuyan Fairy, the five Immortals, to immediately set off under the lead of the two Stewards from Golden Crow Palace.

Although there is an Immortal City nearby, there is no Teleportation Array that can directly reach Evil Fire Valley. Fang Bai and the others could only ride a few Immortal Birds tamed by Golden Crow Palace and fly at full speed towards Evil Fire Valley.

Along the way, Fang Bai closed his eyes to rest, but his brain was running at high speed, thinking of countermeasures.

"Hmm..."

Suddenly, Fang Bai let out a muffled groan, his body trembled a few times, his face turned pale, and his breath became chaotic.

"Junior Brother Wushuang, what’s wrong with you?"

Feng Nie Fairy and Liuyan Fairy, who were riding on the same Immortal Bird with Fang Bai, asked concernedly.

"Recently, while cultivating Immortal Law, my method seems to have some issues... Pu..."

Fang Bai said, suddenly spitting out a mouthful of blood, collapsing onto the back of the Immortal Bird, showing a painful expression.

"Could it be a Deviation?"

Feng Nie Fairy exclaimed.

On another Immortal Bird, Qingyan Immortal King and Chiyang Immortal King exchanged glances, seeing a hint of joy in each other’s eyes.

Their relationship with Fang Bai, though seemingly lukewarm, was actually like water and fire. Seeing Fang Bai spitting blood and sensing his chaotic breath, a sign of Deviation, they were overjoyed, wishing Fang Bai would fall right there.

"Wushuang Immortal King, are you alright?"

The two Stewards of Golden Crow Palace asked Fang Bai in a deep voice, with furrowed brows.

They were heading to Evil Fire Valley to hunt down Emperor’s Palace disciples, and they didn’t expect something like this to happen en route. If it were other Immortal Kings, they would directly leave them behind to heal themselves. But Fang Bai is an extraordinary talent, personally chosen as a Direct Disciple by the Palace Master, and they dare not neglect him.

"Not... not a big deal..."

Fang Bai wiped the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth and said weakly, "However... I feel I might not be able to continue with you guys... Let me down, I’ll find a hidden spot to heal... I cannot delay your trip to Evil Fire Valley... After I recover, I’ll return to Golden Crow Palace on my own..."

"This..."

The two Stewards of Golden Crow Palace were somewhat hesitant. They wanted to leave Fang Bai behind and quickly reach Evil Fire Valley, but were worried about abandoning Fang Bai and facing punishment from Yanshi Immortal Emperor upon returning to Golden Crow Palace.

"Don’t worry... When I return to Golden Crow Palace, I’ll explain the reason to Yanshi Immortal Emperor myself... I won’t get you involved..."

Fang Bai added immediately.

"In that case... very well... However, your condition doesn’t look good, so let Liuyan Fairy stay to take care of you!"

One of the Stewards said to Fang Bai.

Liuyan Fairy was secretly pleased and was about to nod in agreement when Qingyan Immortal King volunteered, "Let me stay instead! There are many Immortal Beasts around here, and my strength is slightly better than Junior Sister Liuyan’s. If any dangers arise, I can handle them better! As for Evil Fire Valley, I believe the two Stewards can handle it easily!"

"Very well, then Qingyan Immortal King will stay and take care of Wushuang Immortal King!"

The two Stewards thought Qingyan Immortal King’s reasoning was sound and agreed.

Liuyan Fairy saw the Stewards had agreed and knew it was unchangeable, so she resentfully glared at Qingyan Immortal King and used Thread Condensation Sound Transmission to say, "Junior Brother Wushuang is the Palace Master’s Direct Disciple; you better not bully him! Otherwise, the Palace Master will not spare you lightly!"

Regarding her threat, Qingyan Immortal King just smiled, paying no mind.

"So what if he is a Personal Transmission Disciple of the Palace Master? If he ’unfortunately’ dies at the mouth of Immortal Beasts, the Palace Master could, at most, blame his negligence in protection. It’s unlikely he would kill me, a favored talent, for a deceased extraordinary talent, right?"

Qingyan Immortal King looked at Fang Bai and thought wickedly.

Chiyang Immortal King seemed to understand Qingyan Immortal King’s thoughts and shared a silent smile with him.

"Let’s continue!"

Seeing Qingyan Immortal King taking Wushuang Immortal King down into the mountain below, the two Stewards continued to urge the Immortal Birds beneath them to fly.
