Wang Tianhua examined closely and saw three human heads, causing a shock in his heart!

Li Yunjing and Fu Chao, due to their limited experience, didn't know who these three people were. Wang Tianhua had been stationed in the north for three hundred years; how could he not know who they were?

Wang Tianhua's gaze fell on Li Yunjing, almost unable to believe that this youngster had decapitated three Golden Core Realm cultivators from the Zhao Family in one battle?

Li Yunjing's name was well-known even in the Northern Border!

When these regional officials discussed new talents of the sect, they always mentioned Li Yunjing's name.

Although the "City of Glory" is far from the "Shenxiao Dao Sect," the information flow was quite swift.

Li Yunjing apprenticed under Qin Jiuxiao, became the chief steward of "Seven Stars Peak," and formed the "Purple Cloud Faction," ambitiously competing for the Sect Leader Venerable's seat, something these figures also knew.

At that time, they even considered it a joke!

Not that they doubted Li Yunjing's potential!

But time was running out!

It's been many years since Ming Lingchuan broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm, and he could step down as Sect Leader at any time to pursue the path of immortality.

Li Yunjing's cultivation was rapid, as if riding a rocket, advancing by leaps and bounds!

However, for Li Yunjing, breaking through the Golden Core Realm was extremely difficult.

Meanwhile, some potential competitors had already successfully formed their cores.

According to the rules, the Sect Leader of "Shenxiao Dao Sect" must be at the Golden Core Realm level to assume the position!

This was the baseline!

Thus, Wang Tianhua didn't take Li Yunjing's competition for the Sect Leader Venerable's position seriously.

Now seeing Li Yunjing kill three Golden Core Realm cultivators of the fifth and sixth heavens shocked Wang Tianhua greatly.

The elite of the Zhao Family was not weak!

Even those commanders under him would take a lot of effort to kill them one-on-one!

That said, Li Yunjing's combat power was strong enough to be ranked among the top ten in the "City of Glory"!

Of course, that's because the main forces of the "City of Glory" were deployed elsewhere, losing its elite.

The main force of the "City of Glory" had gone to "Shenxiao Pass," stationed in "Youyue Country," and a division was scattered in the "Transverse Mountain Range."

Currently, the power in the "City of Glory" is extremely weak, apart from a Nascent Soul Realm figure, Wang Tianhua is the strongest, followed by a dozen Golden Core Realm cultivators.

Among these dozen Golden Core Realm cultivators, the majority were no match for Li Yunjing!

After pondering for a while, Wang Tianhua slowly said: "The Zhao Family is a major clan in the Northern Domain, this matter is no small matter. However, don't worry, I will immediately contact the sect to report this issue. As for the Zhao Family, I will send someone to monitor them secretly, and if they really try to escape, they will definitely not be let off lightly!"

Upon hearing this, Fu Chao and Li Yunjing both breathed a sigh of relief.

With Wang Tianhua stepping in, the matter would be much easier to handle.

"Thank you, Vice City Lord Wang!"

The two said in unison.

"Rest first in the 'City Lord's Mansion'."

Wang Tianhua waved his hand lightly, "After I contact the sect, further arrangements will be made."

Both nodded in agreement and were subsequently led to the guesthouse in the backyard to rest by the guards.

The conditions at the "City Lord's Mansion" were certainly excellent; calling it a guesthouse, it was actually comparable to a manor, with pavilions and towers everywhere, not much smaller than Fu Chao's cultivation residence, second only to "Qiuwu Manor."

With their status, Li Yunjing and Fu Chao enjoying such treatment was only natural.

After entering, they found their way easily to the living room and discussed the upcoming matters.

Fu Chao sat on the chair, his face still somewhat gloomy.

He cursed softly, "The Zhao Family, those ungrateful wolves, dare to attack us! When the clan sends people, I will personally destroy them!"

"Forget it."

Li Yunjing smiled, comforting him, "Don't rush, Vice City Lord Wang has promised to help, and the matter will be resolved soon. Let your family rest for now."

"Alright. I will temporarily swallow my anger."

Fu Chao nodded, yet the anger in his eyes hadn't faded.

Seeing Fu Chao's mood slightly eased, Li Yunjing continued, "The most important thing now is to wait for a response from the sect. Although the Zhao Family is powerful, since they dared to collude with the Demon Dao, the sect will not stand idly by. We just need to wait patiently and watch things unfold."

"You're right; rushing won't help now."

Fu Chao took a deep breath and nodded, "However, I always feel the situation isn't that simple. Since the Zhao Family dared to target us, there must be a larger conspiracy behind it."

"The Zhao Family is merely a pawn."

An icy glint passed through Li Yunjing's eyes as he spoke softly, "I feel we might have unintentionally performed a meritorious deed due to this incident."

Hearing this, Fu Chao frowned deeply, "You mean... there's a deeper conspiracy involving the Zhao Family and the Demon Dao?"

"Indeed."

Li Yunjing nodded, speaking calmly, "From my analysis, in recent years, the sect has been incredibly forceful, suppressing various Demon Dao forces. These Demon Dao forces might have infiltrated us, seeking to disturb the rear and incite chaos!" 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"The Zhao Family is likely not the only faction enticed by the Demon Dao!"

Li Yunjing further added.

"That's really bad!"

Hearing Li Yunjing's analysis, Fu Chao's expression changed dramatically, exclaiming.

"Let's not worry about this! If the sky falls, there's someone tall to hold it up!"

Li Yunjing shook his head, speaking indifferently, "We must quickly enhance our strength, or we might not be so lucky next time."

"You're right!"

Fu Chao firmly agreed, nodding, "Once this matter is settled, I must also go into closed-door cultivation, striving to advance by one or two minor realms early."

As they were speaking, suddenly faint footsteps were heard from outside the door.
