Since they had already arrived, neither Liu Zixuan nor Sword Demon would be afraid of their intimidation.
After listening to Naske's words, Liu Zixuan mockingly smiled and said, "It's precisely because we know you're from the Angel Sect that we intercepted you halfway."
"What do you mean?" Naske frowned and asked, feeling a vague sense of unease.
"Wasn't it fun fighting the Divine Court Sect earlier?" Sword Demon said with a meaningful smile.
Naske suddenly looked up, "I always suspected something was off. The Divine Court Sect shouldn't have, and wouldn't dare, make a move against us at this time. And when we just attacked them, they were completely confused. So earlier, it was you who pretended to be the Divine Court Sect and killed our Angel Sect disciples?"
Liu Zixuan snapped his fingers, "You're not as dumb as you seem."
"Who are you people after all? What is your intention by stirring up the conflict between us and the Divine Court Sect? Aren't you afraid of the two major sects joining forces to retaliate against you?" Naske coldly questioned.
Liu Zixuan wagged his index finger twice, "It doesn't matter who we are. As for why we're provoking you, even if you have the brain of a pig, you should be able to figure it out. As for retaliation..."
At this point, Liu Zixuan suddenly changed his tone, "If I dared to hit you, I'm not afraid of your revenge!"
"It looks like you have no intention of letting us leave here peacefully today?" Naske said while surreptitiously drawing his weapon.
Liu Zixuan cast a knowing glance at Sword Demon and then laughed, "Only with your deaths will the next act become more interesting!"
Naske frowned, pondered for a moment, and suddenly cursed, "You want to kill us and make the Angel Sect and the Divine Court Sect start a war directly!"
"Correct, and your reward is being sent to the afterlife!"
After Liu Zixuan spoke, he shouted loudly, "Take action!"
Sword Demon and Liu Zixuan attacked the group of martial artists in the middle, one from the front and the other from behind.
Naske shouted to his companions, "Get out at all costs; you must inform the elder about what's happening here!"
Getting out to inform the sect elder is indeed a good strategy, as it could expose Liu Zixuan's scheme and end the feud between the Angel Sect and the Divine Court Sect.
But that was simply an impossible task.
Two Life and Death Realm experts blocking less than ten lower-realm strong men among them was a crushing scenario!
Moreover, with so many eyes and ears, Liu Zixuan and Sword Demon wouldn't waste more time, striking with thunderous methods.
The two launched a pincer attack, and in less than five minutes, only Naske was left standing in the middle.
Based on the realm classification, Naske was equivalent to the Acquired Emperor Realm of the Star Sea Martial Realm.
To handle him, either Liu Zixuan or Sword Demon would need just a single finger.
Seeing all his surrounding companions perish, Naske's face was extremely gloomy, glaring at Liu Zixuan and Sword Demon, "Why not kill me?"
"You can't escape; we just want you to die with some clarity!"
Liu Zixuan appeared ghostly in front of Naske, gripping his throat with his right hand, "Remember, this is the Star Sea. It's not a place for foreign martial artists to run rampant, and remember, the young master's name is Liu Zixuan!"
Click!
Naske immediately breathed his last!
Sword Demon stormed over angrily, cursing, "Wasn't it supposed to be my time to shine? Why did you end up saying your name again?"
Liu Zixuan was momentarily stunned and awkwardly replied, "Habit, sorry. Usually, it's me. Next time, it's your turn, okay?"
"Shit! I worked for nothing again!" Sword Demon sulked and waved his hand dismissively, "It's still early; do you want to do something else?"
"Are you insisting on making a fuss today?" Liu Zixuan teased.
"Damn right, I'm the Sword Demon! How could I just be your little kid's muscleman?" Sword Demon retorted.
Liu Zixuan's eyes moved a couple of times, "If you really want to make a fuss, there's indeed something we can do."
"Say it, whose trouble are we going to stir up?" Sword Demon asked.
"Yin City, whether it's chaotic or not, Sword Demon decides!" Liu Zixuan said mysteriously.
Sword Demon raised an eyebrow at these words, "You mean, set a fire at the front of each sect's and faction's place?"
"Tomorrow morning is a guaranteed treasure-snatching battle. Don't you think, as night falls, under the starlight, making the whole Yin City lively is quite an interesting scene?" Liu Zixuan said with a playful smile.
Sword Demon smirked, "You're indeed interesting! Well, how do we do it?"
"Yin City has two main streets. Most of the factions are in this area. We'll each take a street, stir up some trouble one by one, and then slip away, making it as chaotic as possible. After that, head back to the hotel and sleep. It's that simple!" Liu Zixuan shrugged.
"Got it!"
Sword Demon grinned, "I love doing this kind of thing."
With those words, he pointed to the street ahead and charged forward.
Meanwhile, Liu Zixuan stayed on the street where he stood.
This night was destined to be extraordinary.
This night, Yin City was destined to be lit until dawn!
About three hours later, in the middle of the night, Liu Zixuan stood at the corner of the street. Just as the street fell silent, it suddenly became lively again. He yawned and lazily headed to the hotel where they were staying.
As he reached the entrance, Sword Demon also appeared from the other side, a smug smile on his face.
"How'd it go?" Sword Demon asked.
"You'll find out tomorrow morning, won't you?" Liu Zixuan replied with a mysterious smile, stretching lazily, "At this time, we should rest well for a night."
"Sounds good!" The two exchanged knowing smiles and headed to their respective rooms.
"Why did you come back so late?"
This question was asked by Luo Xi and Zhao Yi in different rooms.
Because they didn't want to attract too much attention earlier, Zhao Yi and Sword Demon shared a room, Xiao Hu and Liu Zixuan shared a room with Luo Xi, and Qiqi had her own room. So when they returned to their rooms, many questions were asked.
Of course, Liu Zixuan and Sword Demon answered the same way.
Both gave a mysterious smile, walked into the bathroom to shower, and then lay down to rest.
This left Luo Xi and Zhao Yi puzzled, wondering what these two were up to again. Their mysterious demeanor suggested they had done something more mischievous than just killing the Angel Sect's people.
But as night was already here, they could only rest and wait until morning to find out what happened.
...
After a good night's sleep, morning arrived quickly. Liu Zixuan and Sword Demon were still groggy when they heard Tiger and the others cursing in the living room.
"Damn! Which Great Immortal pulled this off?"
"This is outrageous. Such a big thing happened in just one night..."
