"That's wonderful!
Dugu Huan is safe and sound!"
Chu Ji and the other upper echelons of Qingyun Palace collectively let out a sigh of relief.
News had previously come back that Dugu Huan was being pursued, and Ye Yunfei had personally gone to search for him, but failed to find him.
Now Dugu Huan had returned on his own.
"Brat, you dare destroy my arm?! Seeking death!
Everyone, attack together! Kill this brat!"
The burly man, his right arm destroyed and his body drenched in blood, was furious beyond measure and let out a furious roar.
Boom!
His other hand brought out a golden war halberd, erupting with billowing spiritual power pressure as he charged toward Dugu Huan.
"Attack!"
The tall, thin middle-aged man also waved his hand and shouted.
Thus, all the Tianlin Clan forces moved in to surround and kill Dugu Huan.
"Hmph!
Do you truly think us Qingyun Palace members are pushovers?!
Let's go!"
Yang Tianhu, one of the Seven Great Bandits, gave a cold snort and took a step forward, preparing to charge over and assist Dugu Huan.
Right at this moment.
Dugu Huan raised the saber in his hand and swung it down.
Boom...
A single stroke of saber light, as dazzlingly white as lightning, tore through the void.
The saber radiance was crystalline, supremely resplendent, and its terrifying saber aura spread out like a sea, shaking the space around them.
Aah! Aah!
One after another, the Tianlin Clan members were either cleaved at the waist into two pieces, split down the middle into halves, or shredded to pieces by the saber aura.
This single saber strike instantly slaughtered over a dozen Tianlin Clan people.
Half of them were Heavenly Thunder Realm experts!
Boom! Boom! Boom...
Dugu Huan did not stop, launching saber strike after saber strike, each one breathtakingly brilliant.
For a moment, the sky was filled with saber aura like a sea, as if rolling up monstrous waves to crash down upon the Tianlin Clan forces.
Dugu Huan was using his Thousand Absolute Blade technique!
Its movements and stances were simple, but it was overwhelmingly powerful, each strike stronger than the last!
This was because Thousand Absolute Blade focused not on technique, but on will and meaning.
With each saber strike, he fused his entire refined energy, spirit, and understanding of the saber path into the light of the blade, using the saber will to subdue his enemies.
Aah!...
The Tianlin Clan people simply had no way to resist, constantly falling in gruesome death.
The tall, thin man and the burly man were also forced to retreat repeatedly, utterly incapable of blocking Dugu Huan's attacks.
In the end, every single Tianlin Clan person was slaughtered by Dugu Huan, including the tall, thin man and the burly man!
"Since when did Dugu Huan become this powerful?!"
Chu Ji and the other Qingyun Palace upper echelons were gaping in shock, practically unable to believe their eyes.
"With combat strength like that, I'm no match for him either!"
Yang Tianhu of the Seven Great Bandits gulped and said with a bitter laugh.
Following that, Chu Ji and the other upper echelons welcomed Dugu Huan into the Qingyun Palace headquarters.
Two days later.
"Dugu Huan, are you truly planning to leave the Xuanyuan Star Domain and venture out into the cosmos?"
Chu Ji asked Dugu Huan.
"Yes.
I wish to venture into the cosmos and temper my saber will. Only then can I progress further along the saber path."
Dugu Huan nodded.
"Alright.
Be careful in all things."
Chu Ji could only say.
Dugu Huan's heart for pursuing the saber path was too resolute. Chu Ji knew no one could dissuade him.
A short while later.
Dugu Huan boarded a starship, flying towards the distant horizon until he quickly vanished from sight.
"The boss is gone, and now Dugu Huan is gone too..."
Within Qingyun Palace, atop a mountain peak, Wu Heishan, Yuan Dayong, Long Yingying, Wen Zi, and others watched Dugu Huan's starship recede into the distance. Wu Heishan couldn't help but sigh.
"Dugu Huan is right. If you want to become stronger, you must venture out, go through trials, and not stay cooped up in one place all the time."
Long Yingying gazed in the direction Dugu Huan's ship had disappeared, murmuring to herself, intense fighting spirit flaring in her beautiful eyes.
Battle Clan blood flowed in her veins, and an impulse to grow stronger was engraved in her bones.
"Sister Yingying, why don't we go out and venture into the starry sky together!
Staying here is just too boring!"
Wen Zi, standing beside Long Yingying, suddenly spoke up, her eyes bubbling with anticipation.
"Everyone, no need to be hasty.
Before Palace Master Ye left, he instructed me to organize more trials for everyone.
So, from now on, I will often arrange for you to participate in various expeditions.
The rest of the time, you can stay in Qingyun Palace cultivating. A balance of action and stillness will be even better."
At that moment, Chu Ji flew over from a distance, landing beside Wu Heishan and the others in the blink of an eye, and spoke.
He feared that Ye Yunfei's close friends would all follow Dugu Huan's example and run off into the cosmos. If something happened, he wouldn't know how to explain it to Ye Yunfei.
At the same time.
Somewhere in the cosmos.
Ye Yunfei's starship was flying through the vast, boundless starry expanse.
"My other arm is in the Changle Star Sea, within the Tianmu Star Domain.
We are already within the Changle Star Sea now. At our current speed, we should reach the Tianmu Star Domain in about three days."
The Giant Arm said.
"Good.
I should have enough resources to allow your other arm to also recover to its peak state."
Ye Yunfei nodded.
Hu Miao and Huang Shang were also on the ship, each meditating beside Ye Yunfei.
The Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm was also lying on Ye Yunfei's shoulder, comfortably crossing its tiny little legs.
Ye Yunfei occasionally took out a bottle of medicinal pellets and handed them to the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm.
"That's excellent.
Once all parts of my body have recovered their peak strength, I can seek revenge against my old nemesis!"
The illusory figure of the brawny man appeared on the Giant Arm, saying with excitement.
"How powerful was your nemesis?"
Ye Yunfei casually asked.
"Any character capable of severely wounding me and forcing me to flee for my life must naturally be incredibly powerful.
Even if I truly recover to my peak state, I wouldn't have absolute confidence in defeating him.
Furthermore, that guy was the sect master of a major sect with numerous subordinates, while I was fighting alone. I'm outnumbered as well.
But regardless, I will fight him to the bitter end!"
The brawny man said.
"Hmm, I see."
Ye Yunfei gave a faint nod.
"Ye Yunfei, it's possible I might need your help when it comes time for my revenge."
The brawny man suddenly said.
"My help?
Do you think, with my current strength, I'd be any use to you?"
Ye Yunfei chuckled.
"With your current strength, certainly not.
But you're too mysterious. Your rate of growth is simply too fast. Sometimes, I even suspect you might be the reincarnation of some prehistoric old monster.
I have a premonition that in the future, your name will shake the entire Canghuang Realm.
Therefore, I think it's highly possible you could help me with my revenge."
The brawny man said.
"Alright then. If I can be of assistance when the time comes, I will."
Ye Yunfei nodded.
"Then I thank you in advance!"
The brawny man said gratefully.
"You vile woman, where do you think you're running!"
"Quick, stop her ship!
Haha…
Capturing the Chen Clan's eldest young lady this time will be a great achievement!"
Just then, shouts rang out from the distant starry sky.
Then, a starship came speeding towards them, while over a dozen other ships closed in from different directions, converging upon it.
