Misty Rain Tower

In the darkness of the night, the Dantai tribe was ablaze with fire, the sounds of battle thundering through the sky.

The warriors of the Dantai tribe were locked in fierce combat with several assassins whose origins were unknown, while the men, women, and children of the Dantai clan, along with the disciples of the Confucian School, were all scrambling to put out the fires, creating a scene of utter chaos.

The din of battle and the clashing of weapons were everywhere, with the chaotic fluctuations of Genuine Qi serving to distract and prevent the Confucian School's experts from noticing the unusual activity in the distance.

"Something's wrong, Brother Li might be in danger, hurry!"

Upon realizing that something was amiss, Bai Wangyu immediately called over Wen Xiuru and rushed back in haste.

Unexpectedly, at that moment, several masked assassins appeared, blocking their path.

Bai Wangyu and Wen Xiuru, upon seeing this, drew their swords to meet the enemy, striking mercilessly, seeking only to break through quickly.

The sound of swords clashing echoed through the night, the assassins were extraordinarily skilled, and even the two most outstanding disciples of the Confucian School struggled to break free.

"Master Instructor."

In the midst of the chaos, Li Qingshan and Chen Qiao'er stepped forward, surveying the situation with grave voices, "Something seems off."

"Indeed, it does."

Fa Ru nodded, his gaze sweeping over the surroundings, his expression growing tense. The sounds of battle were everywhere, and it seemed as though someone was attempting to assassinate the Great Sovereign of Dantai and the Celestial Maiden. However, he had a nagging feeling that something was not right.

If he were an assassin, he would never choose this time to strike at the Great Sovereign of Dantai and the Celestial Maiden. Everyone knew that the many experts of his Confucian School were present at the Dantai clan, along with the clan's own powerful warriors. The Dantai tribe was at its strongest, and even a Great Cultivator of the Five Realms might not succeed.

The timing of the assassin's attack was unwise.
