**”Li Bai Feng from the Li Clan.”**
**”And Li Qing Yao as well!”**
**Somebody had spotted the figures that had emerged. The two leaders were none other than the two renowned prodigies of the Li Clan.**
**”Li Bu Fan didn’t come? What a pity…”**
**”What’s so pitiful?”**
**”Don’t you know? When Ye Wushuang first arrived in the Qingzhou region, he encountered Li Bai Fan and defeated him in just three moves. Li Bai Fan was Li Bu Fan’s brother. Wouldn’t Li Bu Fan want to avenge him?”**
**”Whoa, so if Li Bu Fan were here, Ye Wushuang would be even more doomed?”**
**”This Ye Wushuang sure has caused quite a stir. How many people has he offended?”**
**The surrounding chatter continued incessantly.**
**How many prodigies and geniuses had already appeared?**
**Duan Xingqing and Shang Yunshang from the Heavenly Mechanism Hall.**
**Dongfang Yu and Xiao Ge from the Holy Dan Sect.**
**Prince Yu Hao from Taiqing Palace, Shang Tianqing from the Giant Sword Sect, Prince Tian Yuanbing from the Tianyan Dynasty, and Li Bai Feng and Li Qing Yao from the Li Clan.**
**Plus Ye Wushuang, Ji Ou, Mu Zili, and Jiang Yihan from Spirit Sword Mountain.**
**That already made more than a dozen prodigies and geniuses known throughout the Qingzhou region.**
**However, Prince Yu Hao, Shang Tianqing, and Prince Tian Yuanbing were clearly just here to watch the spectacle.**
**As for Li Qing Yao and Li Bai Feng from the Li Clan, it was uncertain whether they would join the fray.**
**But one thing was certain: Shang Yunshang, Duan Xingqing, Dongfang Yu, and Xiao Ge were absolutely determined to kill Ye Wushuang.**
**It seemed that Spirit Sword Mountain had four people: Ji Ou, Mu Zili, Jiang Yihan, and Ye Wushuang.**
**At first glance, it appeared to be a four-on-four situation.**
**But…**
**Jiang Yihan and Ji Ou were somewhat inferior to Dongfang Yu and Duan Xingqing.**
**The truly most formidable trio of Spirit Sword Mountain were Qin Muyu, Li Wenqing, and Mu Zili.**
**Now, with only Mu Zili present to hold the fort, Ji Ou, Jiang Yihan, and Ye Wushuang might find it difficult to deal with any three of Dongfang Yu, Xiao Ge, Shang Yunshang, and Duan Xingqing.**
**The situation was quite unfavorable for Ye Wushuang and his companions.**
**”Given this, it seems we need to join forces?” Duan Xingqing looked at Dongfang Yu and Xiao Ge.**
**”Yes!”**
**Dongfang Yu continued, “The life of Ye Wushuang belongs to me and no one else!”**
**The street was now filled with a tense and hostile atmosphere.**
**Warriors from the other factions stepped back one after another, fearing they might get caught in the crossfire.**
**Just as the battle seemed imminent…**
**Boom!!!**
**A peal of thunder roared across the entire ancient city, both inside and out.**
**And then, accompanied by the thunderous roar, a heart-shaking aura erupted completely.**
**Ripples of energy shook everyone on the street and rooftops, making it impossible for them to stand firm.**
**As the vibrations spread like ripples in water, everyone summoned their vital energy and the power of the myriad laws to protect themselves, being cautious and vigilant.**
**”What’s happening?”**
**”No idea!”**
**”Someone must have triggered some kind of mechanism here!”**
**”Very likely!”**
**Although the dispute between Ye Wushuang and the prodigies of the Heavenly Mechanism Hall and the Holy Dan Sect had drawn many people here, not all the prodigies and warriors who had entered the area had gathered here.**
**Some were still searching for opportunities within the ancient city.**
**This kind of commotion…**
**”It’s coming from the center of the city!”**
**Someone suddenly spoke up.**
**Everyone’s gaze turned to the center of the ancient city, where a blood-red pillar of light rose into the sky, towering ten thousand feet high.**
**Even from dozens of miles away, everyone could see it clearly.**
**As the blood-red light ascended, the entire ancient city seemed to be illuminated by starlight.**
**From the rooftops of pavilions and high towers, thousands of feet high, a hundred or so green light pillars rose into the sky.**
**These light pillars were scattered irregularly among the various markets around the Tianlin Ancient City.**
**The nearest light pillar to the crowd had a diameter of about ten feet, towering a thousand feet into the sky.**
**It looked incredibly mysterious and eerie.**
**Of course, the most striking was the blood-red pillar in the center of the ancient city, which soared straight up into the sky.**
**It was simply terrifying.**
**The blood-red light turned the area within ten miles around the pillar into a sea of blood, even in broad daylight, it was still gloomy.**
**When the ten-thousand-foot blood-red pillar and the hundred thousand-foot green light pillars stabilized, the ripples in the earth of the ancient city gradually ceased.**
**But at this moment, no one was paying attention to the disputes between the prodigies of the Heavenly Mechanism Hall and the Holy Dan Sect and those of the Spirit Sword Mountain.**
**Everyone was looking at the blood-red and green light pillars.**
**Every time the Heavenly and Earthly Gates opened, the Tianlin Ancient City would appear, but… such a strange change had never happened before.**
**”How could this be?”**
**Ji Ou, at this moment, rubbed his bald head in astonishment and said, “This is a bit eerie!”**
**There were far too many differences between this opening of the Heavenly and Earthly Gates and the previous ones.**
**”Has it never happened before?” Ye Wushuang asked.**
**”No.”**
**Everyone shook their heads.**
**Mu Zili looked at the warriors of Spirit Sword Mountain and said, “Be careful later, don’t act on your own, stay together to prevent anything that might happen.”**
**Everyone nodded in agreement.**
**But at this moment, another strange change occurred.**
**(To be continued…)**
