　　Ye Wushuang wiped his hands clean, stood up, and gazed at the figure standing on a nearby hill.
　　His eyes narrowed slightly, a flash of killing intent flickering in their depths.
　　”Traitor　Ge　Bei！”
　　Ye Wushuang’s voice was icy as he said, “I truly don’t know how an ungrateful wretch like you can live so shamelessly to this day.”
　　The newcomer was none other than Ge Bei, the commander of the Lingjian Pavilion’s Sword Heaven Guards！
　　Ge Bei’s face was cold and sinister, his gaze fixed unwaveringly on Ye Wushuang, surrounded by a palpable aura of killing intent.
　　”Now no one can protect you.”
　　Ge Bei said coldly： “I suppose you’ve been cut off from others these days？ Don’t you know… Old Madam Lin Yunjin of Lushan’s Lin family is dead？”
　　Ye Wushuang’s killing intent erupted instantly, but then he sneered coldly： “Why would I listen to your nonsense？”
　　”Suit yourself if you don’t believe it.”
　　Ge Bei scoffed mockingly： “Tsk tsk… Lin Yunjin was just unlucky, running into Yun family’s patriarch Yun Changbai, who brought Yun Changzhong and Yun Quyan—one at the Great Perfection of Star-Plucking Realm, one at Perfection, and one at Peak. That’s how Lin Yunjin ended up hacked to pieces by them.”
　　Ye Wushuang clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles cracking audibly.
　　Having spent this time with Ye Wushuang, Huang Yu and Zhou Yuan had learned from him about the current situation in Tianyuan Continent.
　　The Lin family of Lushan was one of the factions closely aligned with the Sacred Heaven Sect.
　　One could imagine the fury burning in Ye Wushuang’s heart at this moment.
　　Slowly.
　　Ye Wushuang unclenched his fists, looked at Ge Bei, and said with a faint smile： “In that case, let me give you some news too.”
　　”Hmm？” Ge Bei raised an eyebrow.
　　”Qi Zhenzhong, Qi Zhentian, and Qi Zhenshan—the three brothers along with over twenty Star-Plucking Realm experts of the Qi family—all perished. The Qi family… is finished！”
　　Hearing this, Ge Bei sneered coldly, “Nonsense.”
　　”He’s not spouting nonsense.” Zhou Yuan, gnawing on roasted meat at this moment, said with a smile, “They’re dead. I saw it with my own eyes, and… they even did me a favor！”
　　At this moment, the calmness in Ge Bei’s eyes vanished.
　　The Qi Family was originally the weakest among the top ten supreme forces, with only about forty Star-Snatchers in the clan.
　　Losing over twenty at once—
　　What can the remaining ten or twenty Star-Snatchers possibly do？
　　The Qi Family losing half its strength is absolutely bad news for the Spirit Sword Pavilion.
　　Once the Burial Saint Cave expedition concludes, the Sacred Heaven Sect could easily crush the Qi Family and annex the entire northeastern region of the Tianyuan Continent into its territory.
　　This is an extremely terrifying prospect.
　　”Moreover, I believe more bad news will soon reach the ears of the Spirit Sword Pavilion’s members.”
　　”Hmm？” Ge Bei’s expression darkened.
　　”Ge Bei, leader of the Sword Heaven Guards and personal protector of the Spirit Sword Pavilion’s master, died in the Void Land, his body torn to pieces！”
　　As Ye Wushuang finished speaking, Ge Bei’s face turned even icier.
　　”Do you think I’m still just at the late-stage of Star-Snatcher？” Ge Bei snorted. “Now I’ve reached the peak of Star-Snatcher. Killing you would be as easy as turning my hand！”
　　”Oh？”
　　Ye Wushuang raised an eyebrow and said, “You don’t think my strength hasn’t improved at all these past few months, do you？”
　　As Ye Wushuang’s words fell, Ge Bei’s gaze sharpened.
　　”Are you bluffing me？”
　　”Whether I’m bluffing or not, you’ll know once we try！”
　　Ye Wushuang took a step forward, his aura erupting from within.
　　Mid-stage Star Plucking Realm！
　　Seeing this, Ge Bei’s eyes widened in shock.
　　How is this possible！
　　Previously, Ye Wushuang was only at the Delusional Self Realm.
　　How did he reach the Star Plucking Realm so quickly, and even the mid-stage at that？
　　It’s worth noting that reaching the Star Plucking Realm grants a lifespan limit of up to eight thousand years. Many at this level may not advance even a single minor realm in hundreds or thousands of years.
　　Even for geniuses, improving by one step in a decade or a few decades is already remarkable.
　　But Ye Wushuang… is improving month by month？
　　”Congratulations, you’ve delivered yourself to me！”
　　Ye Wushuang’s figure flashed as he activated the Great Flame Body Tempering Art, clenching his fist.
　　”Great Flame Annihilation Fist！”
　　The fist wind howled, and the energy of fire, thunder, and lightning surged instantly. The power of the mid-stage realm, amplified twofold, blasted straight toward Ge Bei.
　　Ge Bei formed fists with both hands and struck out fiercely.
　　Boom…
　　The void trembled with a deafening roar as violent tremors erupted at this moment.
　　Ge Bei’s figure paused, his steps retreating.
　　On the other side, Ye Wushuang’s figure also retreated dozens of feet.
　　But now, as Ge Bei looked at Ye Wushuang again, his gaze had completely changed.
　　How could this be？
　　This kid’s explosive power… isn’t much weaker than his.
　　On the Tianyuan Continent, the six realms of the Star-Plucking Transformation are divided into three stages: early, middle, and late, which form one tier, while peak, perfection, and great perfection form another tier.
　　The leap from late stage to peak involves a significant transformation.
　　Only after reaching the peak of the Star-Plucking Transformation did Ge Bei truly understand what it meant to be a genuine Star-Plucking Transformation expert.
　　It was completely incomparable to the late stage of the Star-Plucking Transformation.
　　Yet now, facing Ye Wushuang, Ge Bei sensed an even more terrifying explosive force.
　　Could an outburst from the middle stage also be this powerful？
　　”Huang Yu! Go all out and kill! Your mid-stage Transformation realm isn’t just for show!!!”
　　”Zhou Yuan！ Block anyone trying to escape or send word—not a single one gets away！”
　　Hearing this, Huang Yu let out a fierce roar, gripping his sword as he charged at the others.
　　”Brother Ye has spoken! This is my future Imperial Preceptor—how dare you bully him？”
　　At the same time, Zhou Yuan summoned the Tianyuan Sacred Cauldron and couldn’t help but mutter, “When begging me, it’s ‘Elder Zhou this, Elder Zhou that,’ but when not, it’s just ‘Zhou Yuan’ this and ‘Zhou Yuan’ that. Damn it, use me when needed, discard me when not…”
　　Despite saying so, Zhou Yuan still summoned the Tianyuan Sacred Cauldron, his eyes fiercely scanning the surroundings.
　　Ge Bei no longer held back either, drawing the spirit sword from his back and glaring coldly at Ye Wushuang, saying, “Escape？ Even if you’ve reached the mid-stage of the Star-Plucking Realm, why should I flee？ You’re the one who’s going to die！！！”
　　Boom…
　　In an instant, Ye Wushuang, wielding the Sacred Heaven Sword, clashed fiercely with Ge Bei.
　　Meanwhile, Huang Yu, having reached the mid-stage of the Star-Plucking Realm, charged toward the others without hesitation.
　　Deafening explosions erupted across the small hill, shaking the area violently.
　　Terrifying waves of energy surged outward, one after another.
　　Star-Plucking Realm.
　　The intensity of spiritual power had already reached a terrifying level—capable of plucking stars from the sky. Though exaggerated, its explosive force was undeniably fearsome.
　　Thunderfall　Sword　Art！
　　Blazing Flame Sword Technique！
　　After more than half a month of practice, these two sword techniques had become increasingly refined in Ye Wushuang’s hands.
　　Combined with the perfected sword intent, the power radiating from Ye Wushuang’s entire body had reached an utterly terrifying level.
　　Ge Bei had evidently reached the peak of the Star-Snatcher Realm not long ago. In terms of strength, he was still inferior to the two geniuses, Shu Wuyan and Shi Tianlang.
　　Yet, Ye Wushuang had grown far more powerful than half a month ago—not just by a little, but by leaps and bounds.
　　Soon, Ge Bei realized in horror that against Ye Wushuang’s swordplay, his own techniques… were gradually becoming unable to hold up.
