Ye Anping, who was watching the battle from a high place, was relieved when he saw his sister's reaction.
He put the iron whistle back into his storage bag and said to himself with a relieved look on his face, "As expected of me! I taught my little sister well. She is very clever!"
After knowing the position of the main knot, there was no worry that his sister wouldn't break the spell.
But then again, the 'Big Dipper suffocating spirit' was indeed very powerful, and he did not expect that Liang Zhu would actually prepare such a spell.
The commotion caused by this spell was not ordinary.
Everyone within a hundred miles could see the red light emitted just now, and the elders waiting on the main peak must have noticed it by now.
In other words, there was only half an hour left at most for "Brother Liang", "Second Brother", and "Third Brother".
Half an hour later, the Black Star disciples would arrive, and if he and Liang Zhu stayed here, they would either be killed on the spot or caught and thrown into prison to await trial.
Now that Feng Yu Die and the girls were running straight toward the spell main knot, Liang Zhu should have seen it and most likely started to think about retreating.
But after all, two people died.
This cost, "Second Brother" and "Third Brother" absolutely could not accept it in silence. Those three might choose to confront Feng Yu Die and the others head-on.
Ye Anping supported his chin and began to think.
"Second Brother" and "Third Brother" shouldn't be a match for Feng Yu Die.
But as for Liang Zhu, it was hard to say. He controlled the 'Big Dipper suffocating spirit' spell and had not made a move so far, preparing for the battle all this time.
Ye Anping couldn't tell what Liang Zhu's value was. It wouldn't be good if he hurt his sister...
Thinking of this, he stood up and decided to help a little more.
But before that, he had to achieve his original goal.
---Stir up Black Star Sect's anger against the Seven Slayers Sect.
After coming down from the high ground, Ye Anping ran straight toward the corpses of "Fourth and Fifth Brothers".
When he reached the "Fourth Brother", a bloody smell hit him in the face, making him a little nauseous, but he still resisted the discomfort and approached.
He then took out gloves and a mask from his storage bag, put them on, and knelt down, taking the "Fourth Brother's" storage bag to survey its contents.
"Over two hundred spirit stones, some poor quality medicinal pills, a few miscellaneous books, and fragments of working papers..."
"Fourth Brother, you are really poor..."
Ye Anping sighed and took half of the spirit stones. After that, he took out the map of the Black Star Sect that he had drawn yesterday, folded it, and put it in the storage bag of the "Fourth Brother", then returned everything to its original place.
After finishing, Ye Anping stood up, took two steps back, cupped his hands, and bowed deeply to "Fourth Brother".
"Fourth Brother, Sixth Brother will burn some incense for you later. Rest in peace!"
After paying his respects, Ye Anping looked in the direction of that 'Big Dipper suffocating spirit' spell.
The red light above the formation was already fading, so it seemed like Feng Yu Die and the girls had successfully broken the main spell knot.
Ye Anping took out a sword he bought a few days ago from his storage bag, weighed it twice, then summoned his flying sword and flew toward the red beam.
...
When he found Liang Zhu, "Second Brother" and "Third Brother" were arguing with him about whether to retreat.
"Brother, you can't let "Fourth and Fifth Brothers" die in vain! There are only three little girls in the Qi Refining stage."
"I said we retreat!! That spell was our trump card. Since they have broken it, there is nothing we can do now! In a little while, the Black Star Sect's men will come, and none of us will be able to leave."
"They won't come yet, we can still try. I agree with "Second Brother." Let's fight. Those two girls are really powerful, but now one is injured, and they have with them a rookie cultivator."
Liang Zhu noticed someone approaching and looked alertly toward him, but seeing that it was Ye Anping, he relaxed.
"Little brother, didn't I tell you to stay in a safe place? What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to remind you. Big Brother, you caused too much of a stir with the spell, and the Black Star Sect elders have most likely noticed it by now. The journey from the main peak to here is up to half an hour on the flying swords, so..."
"Well..." Liang Zhu nodded and glanced at the other two. "Did you hear that, let's go!!"
The eyebrows under the masks of the two trembled slightly as if they were very dissatisfied with Liang Zhu's decision.
However, just at this moment, a soft female voice entered the ears of those four.
"You... do you think I will... will let you go?!!"
The voice was shaky and lacking confidence, but it was quite loud.
Liang Zhu, Ye Anping, and the others looked in the direction of the voice and saw Xiao Yunluo coming out from behind a tree, holding a very long branch and glaring at them.
She was bristling like a cat, but although her expression was very fierce, she looked more like a small kitten and had no deterrent effect at all.
To be honest, Ye Anping did not anticipate that Feng Yu Die and the girls would actually take the initiative to look for these people.
However, seeing that Xiao Yunluo was the only one who came out, he immediately understood what was going to happen next and hurriedly moved a few steps away from Liang Zhu, "Second Brother", and "Third Brother" to avoid being involved.
Liang Zhu also seemed to have sensed something was wrong and became vigilant, but "Second Brother" and "Third Brother" were completely unaware of the current situation.
When they saw Xiao Yunluo come out, it was as if they saw prey swooping into their net, and they even somewhat wanted to laugh out loud, their attention completely distracted by her alone.
"We didn't go looking for you, but you came over to die on your own accord instead? Heh..."
Halfway through his words, two phantoms, one black and one white, flashed out from behind the trees in two different directions.
By the time "Second and Third Brothers" reacted, the two swords in the phantoms' hands were already less than three inches away from their necks.
"What?!"
The sounds of the two swords entering the flesh almost overlapped.
Swish---
The heads of the "Second and Third Brothers" soared in the air, and their bodies simultaneously fell to the ground.
Feng Yu Die spat a mouthful of blood at "Second Brother"'s feet and cursed. "Bah, this is payback for what you've done to us!"
As for Pei Lianxue, because her brother taught her to make sure she was finishing the job, after she severed "Third Brother"'s head, she kept making a few more holes in his chest while cursing and shouting at Feng Yu Die. "Keep stabbing! My brother taught me that!"
"..."
Feng Yu Die was stunned at first, then quickly followed her example, stabbing "Second Brother" a few more times.
And then, they both looked toward Ye Anping and Liang Zhu, who were just standing there.
"One late stage of Foundation Building and one... Qi Refining stage?" Feng Yu Die frowned slightly, but after looking at Pei Lianxue, she raised the sword and conspired in a loud voice. "Sister Pei, you start dealing with the big one, and I will get rid of the small one before helping you."
"... Oh."
Pei Lianxue glanced at her and nodded. She also raised her sword, staring intently into Liang Zhu's eyes.
Then, she took a deep breath and composed herself.
"Go!!!"
The next moment, Pei Lianxue rushed toward Liang Zhu with her sword raised while Feng Yu Die rushed toward Ye Anping.
"Hiss..."
Seeing Feng Yu Die rushing toward him, Ye Anping quickly raised his hands in surrender.
However, seeing him trying to surrender, Feng Yu Die simply ignored him and even scolded him. "Hmph, you want to surrender? Too late!"
