Outside the Desolate Sky Valley, Pei Ling was carefully following a low-level body-refining monster. Ever since she was driven back to the outer sect, the outer sect disciples who had been on good terms with her no longer associated with her, and Pei Ye no longer came to see her. Now she had no choice but to hunt monsters alone...

Suddenly, a figure wearing a black cloak and covering his face appeared in front of her.

Pei Ling was so frightened that he almost screamed: "Who are you? This is the territory of Yunshan Sect..." Normally, disciples of the Yunshan Sect don't need to dress like this when coming here.

The man slowly raised his head and revealed his true face: "Pei Ling, long time no see!"

"Wang He! It's you!" Pei Ling narrowed his eyes, and his original inquiring expression turned into a sarcastic smile, "You were kicked out of the sect, and you dared to come to the Desolate Sky Valley!"

"My father is the leader of Huolian Peak. If I want to get in, I have plenty of ways..." Wang He looked up and glanced at Pei Ling, a hint of viciousness flashing in his eyes. Then he pretended to be gentle and came to her, stroked her chin, and whispered softly, "But what's the matter? You and I used to have a relationship. Why are you so cruel!"

"You are the one who is so heartless! You said in front of everyone that I seduced you and turned me into a worthless slut. Wang He, this is your retribution! Hahahaha..." Pei Ling looked at Wang He, whose cultivation was destroyed, and felt extremely happy in her heart. Even with her injured hand, she could easily defeat him.

Wang He was pushed away by her and almost fell to the ground. He was suddenly furious, but when he remembered the purpose of his visit, he took a deep breath and endured it.

"Pei Ling, we are old friends, I don't want to deal with you, but I won't let Pei Yun go!" Wang He said, "Aren't you and Pei Yun sworn enemies? You said so many bad things about her in front of me, now we have a chance to take revenge..."

"Are you kidding, or do you really think I'm stupid? Pei Yun is now the second-ranked genius disciple in the foundation-building competition. She is highly valued by the sect. It's simply a pipe dream to hurt her..."

"I have arranged an ambush outside. As long as Pei Yun leaves the sect, I will make sure she dies..." Wang He said angrily, his eyes focused on Pei Ling again, and his tone was seductive, "As long as you can trick Pei Yun into the ambush, we can work together to kill her... How do you do it?"

"Although Pei Yun and I have a past grudge, we don't have any contact with each other now. Why should I take risks for you?"

"As long as you agree to lure her to the ambush site as agreed, I will give you my magic tools and elixirs. Although I am not in the sect now, I still have these resources..."

Pei Ling pondered for a long time, and finally raised his eyes and asked expressionlessly: "Where is the ambush point?"

Wang He smiled and walked to her side and whispered in her ear: "It's at Yunshan Ridge between Yunshan Sect and Chi Ning City, which will make it convenient for you to find an excuse..."

Pei Ling looked at her deeply, then turned away. Wang He put on his hood to hide his sinister smile. When Pei Ling turned around, a strange smile also appeared on his face...

After a while, two more figures came to Wang He——

"Did Pei Ling agree?" Pei Ruo asked sinisterly.

"Of course! If this idiot just gives her something, she will automatically come to me..."

"Brother Wang, have the troops from Yunshanling been confirmed?" Qi Hengnan's face showed the gentleness he always pretended to have.

"It's been negotiated. Pei Ling and Pei Ye are only in the Qi Refining Stage. Killing them is as easy as crushing an ant. It's mainly Pei Yun. But there are more than 20 robbers in that gang, and the leader is at the Perfect Foundation Establishment Stage. It's more than enough to deal with her..."

"...Very good." Qi Hengnan sneered softly. He recalled in his mind the disdain in the woman's eyes every time he met Pei Yun. It was as if she saw through him and despised him, making him feel despicable and ashamed in front of her.

Pei Yun spent more than three months and finally completed the alchemy agreement with Danxiang Pavilion in exchange for the recipe for the Golden Elixir.

Luo Qi told her that the competition among the foundation-building disciples of the ten major sects would probably not be held for more than a year, so she went to the management office first, ready to take on a few missions from the sects. She hadn't taken on a mission for a long time.

She browsed through all the tasks that Foundation Establishment disciples could take, and finally focused her attention on one task -

Women have been disappearing frequently in Qianwen City recently, and the city lord has specially invited disciples from various factions to investigate. If they can provide reliable information, the city lord's mansion will reward them with spirit stones of varying values; if they can solve the problem, the city lord's mansion will reward them with one thousand high-grade spirit stones and a low-grade earth-level magic weapon.

Mission conditions: The cultivators must be at the Foundation Establishment stage or above, and there is no limit on the number of people.

When Pei Yun saw the news, her mind moved and she took on the task without saying a word.

When she returned to Pingzhu Peak, she saw Pei Ye standing outside the door waiting for her. When he saw her coming back, he smiled and went to greet her...

Ten days later, Pei Yun took Pei Ye and Pei Ling away from the sect. She planned to return to the Pei family in Chi Ning City first to pay homage to her mother, and then go to Qianwen City.

That day, the three of them rode their horses into Yunshan Ridge. There were mountains all around, no human habitation to be seen, and no monsters or beasts. Only birds and beasts from the mortal world occasionally passed by.

When the three men were halfway there, a group of people on horseback came towards them and blocked their way.

More than twenty big and strong men who looked quite wild laughed at the three people. The man in the middle directly stated his purpose without any politeness: "I'm sorry, someone spent spirit stones to buy your life, and we brothers are just following orders..." Then he waved the knife in his hand.

"Brother, these two girls look really good. How about we taste them first and then kill them?" The younger brother beside the bandit leader stared at Pei Yun and Pei Ling with obscene eyes.

Pei Ling's expression changed slightly, but the next moment the smile on her face deepened. Pei Yun got off the horse calmly, and Pei Ye followed behind her, his expression completely gloomy.

"How many spirit stones did Wang He give you to buy our lives..." Pei Yun told the truth in one sentence.

The bandit leader laughed nonchalantly: "I don't know who bought your lives. I only collect money and kill people. You deserve it. You offended someone you shouldn't have offended..."

Pei Yun didn't have the patience to waste time with them, so he simply said, "Come and take my life, but I'm afraid you won't be able to come back!"

"Brothers, go!" The bandit leader gave an order, and more than 20 people attacked Pei Yun and the other two at the same time. For a moment, all kinds of spells were dazzling.

Pei Yun sneered and casually cast a water light shield to cover Pei Ye and the other two. He held the Kong Yan Sword, a lower-grade earth-level magic weapon he had chosen from the Magic Weapon Pavilion, and performed the Nine Profound Golden Sword Technique.

With just one sword strike, the robbers only saw a flash of golden sword light before their eyes, and the next moment their heads were separated from their bodies and they could no longer see anything.

Only the bandit leader with the highest level of cultivation managed to dodge the attack. He could not believe his eyes. This woman was so powerful that she killed all his brothers with just one sword. Although he himself avoided the fatal attack, his waist and abdomen were severely cut, so deep that the bone was visible.

He didn't dare to look at the heads around him that died with their eyes open. He was so scared that he peed himself. He knelt down and begged for mercy: "Girl, please spare me! Girl, please spare me! I won't dare to do it again..."

Pei Yun was unmoved. These robbers had killed countless innocent people, so it was only right that they should be punished. She flicked her finger, and a sword beam flew towards the bandit leader, piercing his chest...

Pei Ye and Pei Ling, who were standing aside, were stunned with fear, their hearts filled with incredible shock.

Pei Yun was now too powerful in their eyes. To be honest, they didn't see clearly how Pei Yun made his move. After a dazzling golden light, the robbers were beheaded.

At this moment, both of them had to be thankful that they had told her earlier about Wang He's plan to ambush and kill her. Otherwise, if they had really conspired with Wang He, they would have suffered the same fate as the robbers.

As soon as Pei Yun released his spiritual sense, he immediately found Wang He's trace. He was still quite far away, a few miles away, but he probably didn't know that Pei Yun's soul was extremely powerful, so his spiritual sense's ability to detect was several times that of a fellow cultivator.

"You wait for me here." Pei Yun said and immediately used the Realm of Space. The whole process took less than a cup of tea.

She brought Wang He in front of the two of them, ready to let them confront each other on the spot.

Wang He was suppressed by Pei Yun's spiritual power and knelt on the ground. He looked a little crazy. He no longer concealed his vicious eyes. He glared at Pei Ling fiercely and said bitterly: "You bitch, you dare to betray me! I will tear you into pieces!"

Unexpectedly, Pei Ling was not frightened at all. Instead, she pinched his chin with a smug look on her face, and her smile was filled with unprecedented hatred and determination: "You useless thing! Do you think I will still help you after you have harmed me to this point? I also wish to tear you into pieces!"

As she spoke, she slapped him hard, and laughed until tears came out. "You think I don't know that you keep saying that you care about our old relationship, but you actually want to get rid of me and Pei Yun in one fell swoop, right? How could a narrow-minded and father-dependent loser like you let me go! So don't blame me for not caring about our old relationship. We have been at war for a long time!"

"...Sister Yun, how should we deal with him?" Pei Ye asked.

"He hired someone to kill me today, so I will naturally give him back." Pei Yun has no intention of letting Wang He go this time. A murderer will be killed.

"That's right, we must kill him!" Pei Ling rarely supported Pei Yun's opinion, but Pei Ye seemed to be hesitant to speak. He was still a little worried about Huo Lianfeng's power.

"Pei Yun, I am the son of the master of Huolian Peak. If you dare...if you dare to kill me, my father will never let you go..." Wang He suppressed the panic and fear in his heart and threatened.

Pei Yun didn't care. Not to mention that this was a desolate mountain and wilderness, no one could see her for miles around. It was the best place to destroy the body. Even if they knew, what would happen? Wang He killed her first, so she had to be prepared to be killed in return. Even in front of the sect master, she had the right to speak.

And it's not that she is arrogant. Given how highly she is valued in the sect and the fact that she is a guest elder of Danxiang Pavilion, the people from Huolian Peak would have to think carefully if they want to deal with her.

Pei Yun didn't want to waste time talking to him and was about to kill him with a sword, but Pei Ling suddenly pulled out a dagger from his sleeve like a madman and stabbed him in the chest...

"Second sister!" Pei Ye exclaimed.

Pei Yun was also stunned by her action. He suddenly remembered the fate of Pei Ling in his previous life. In his previous life, Wang He took Pei Ling as his concubine. In this life, Wang He actually died at the hands of Pei Ling...

"I said that we will fight to the death..." Pei Ling whispered in his ear, with red eyes, as if smiling but not smiling, crying but not crying.

"You...you..." Wang He's face was full of disbelief, and he finally fell on Pei Ling, dead.
