When Fang Fengcheng heard this, he seemed to have all his strength drained away. His previous arrogance instantly disappeared. His shoulders drooped weakly, his head lowered, and the dazzling armor around his body turned into golden light and finally dissipated into nothingness.

He whispered to himself, full of confusion and unwillingness: "Senior Sister, you knew that Duan Tianyang and I have an irreconcilable feud, why did you still help that thief?"

The beautiful lady responded gently, with a hint of unquestionable firmness in her voice: "Fang Quan's death is his destined fate. If you insist on revenge, the cycle of cause and effect that should have ended will mercilessly entangle you."

Fang Fengcheng's face suddenly changed when he heard this, and he asked in horror: "Senior Sister, are you saying...I will die here?"

The woman shook her head slightly, her smile revealing a deep meaning: "Although you won't die immediately, your actions today may become the source of your future misfortune."

Her words were like ice, making Fang Fengcheng's heart sink to the bottom.

"This...how is this possible?" He couldn't believe it, his eyes full of confusion and despair.

"This is what our master said." The woman spoke slowly, her tone revealing unquestionable authority, "I came here not for Duan Tianyang, but to save you from the dire situation. Junior brother, if you can't let it go, then follow me back to the sect."

Thinking of the various constraints and endless training in the sect, Fang Fengcheng couldn't help but shudder, shook his head repeatedly, and said in a trembling voice: "No... I won't go back, Senior Sister, I would rather stay here than endure that kind of torment again."

The beautiful lady looked embarrassed and asked softly, "Do you mean to decide to stay here and assist Duan Tianyang?"

"Senior Sister, I swear that I will no longer seek revenge from now on. I just want to keep my distance from him. Is that okay?" Fang Fengcheng's tone carried a hint of helplessness and compromise.

"Junior brother, troubled times are like the tides. Even if you have no intention of showing off, the storms will still come after you. If you are not careful, you may go astray. The dilemma given by Master is actually to pave the right path for you, so that you will not regret it in the future. Have you ever understood Master's painstaking efforts?"

There seemed to be another hidden meaning in the words of the senior sister - the only right way is to assist Duan Tianyang?

Fang Fengcheng was shocked when he heard this. He suddenly remembered something and shouted anxiously, "Senior Sister, Uncle Yi... he is dead, and... he was killed by Duan Tianyang! I saw it with my own eyes, his Wanxiang Ring is in Duan Tianyang's hands right now!"

After saying that, Duan Tianyang was seen walking slowly towards the two of them. Fang Fengcheng gritted his teeth and shouted, "Duan Tianyang, quickly hand over the Wanxiang Ring for my sister to check!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the beautiful lady stopped him softly but firmly: "Brother, don't talk nonsense. Master has already predicted that Uncle Yi had ascended to heaven two years ago. It has nothing to do with Lord Duan. As for the matter of the Universal Ring, there may be other hidden secrets. We need to verify it directly with Lord Duan."

"This...how is this possible?" Fang Fengcheng was extremely shocked, his eyes widened in disbelief, his heart in turmoil.

How could Uncle Master Yi, whose cultivation was so extraordinary that he could reach the level of a saint, suddenly pass away and give the unparalleled divine Xuanbing Wanxiang Ring to an outsider?

You know, in Tongtian Pavilion, the Wanxiang Ring is a unique existence, and there are countless people inside and outside the sect who covet it.

Uncle Yi's move is really puzzling...

Before he could speak, the beautiful lady bowed to Duan Tianyang, her voice as gentle as the spring breeze: "My humble lady greets you, Lord Duan."

Duan Tianyang quickly bowed in return, his eyes full of curiosity: "May I ask your name, young lady?"

The beautiful woman smiled sweetly and said, "I am Tianxin, a disciple of the elder Yuanyin of Tongtian Pavilion, and also a fellow senior sister of Fengcheng. Fengcheng is young and hot-tempered. If he has offended Lord Duan, I apologize to Lord Duan on his behalf."

She bowed again with an indescribable grace in her manner.

Duan Tianyang heard this, coughed lightly, and responded with a smile: "So it's Miss Tianxin, I'm so disrespectful."

Fang Fengcheng's senior sister from Yuan Yin Sect seems to be another top martial artist...

However, surprisingly, there was no strong aura of pressure around her, which made Duan Tianyang guess that she might have reached the state of returning to nature like her master Gu Changhuan.

Tian Xin first smiled gently at Duan Tianyang, then turned her gaze to Fang Fengcheng and asked softly: "Junior brother, have you made a decision?"

Fang Fengcheng looked towards Tian Xin, complex emotions flashing in his eyes. He then glared at Duan Tianyang fiercely, and finally lowered his head in silence.

Tian Xin sighed softly, shook his head helplessly, turned his gaze to Duan Tianyang, and said earnestly: "Master Duan, my junior brother is young and energetic, and may have acted rashly. I hope Master Duan can be more tolerant and guide him in the future."

Duan Tianyang heard this and smiled bitterly, shaking his head gently: "Miss, you are too kind."

He also heard some of the conversation between Tian Xin and Fang Fengcheng just now. It was really unexpected that Tian Xin wanted Fang Fengcheng to join his team.

After all, Fang Quan died at his hands. If Fang Fengcheng really surrendered, the hidden risks would be self-evident.

He turned his gaze to Fang Fengcheng, who had a gloomy expression and kept his head down without saying a word.

Duan Tianyang said sternly, "Miss Tianxin, I can write off the grudge between your junior brother and our Hongxing Army for the sake of our master, but it is really a bit unreasonable to keep him here. This is not his original intention, and I don't want to force it. I hope Miss Tianxin can take him away."

After saying this, without waiting for Tianxin's response, Fang Fengcheng suddenly raised his head, eyes wide open, and questioned Duan Tianyang: "Duan Tianyang, isn't my martial arts enough to gain a foothold in the Hongxing Army?"

Before he finished his words, Tian Xin slapped Fang Fengcheng on the back of his head with lightning speed, and said sternly: "Junior brother, don't be rude!" There was both blame and care in her eyes.

Fang Fengcheng rubbed the back of his head with a grin, his head drooping weakly. If someone else had treated him like this, he would have been furious.

But in front of Tian Xin, he was like a docile kitten, without any of his usual arrogance.

Tian Xin looked at Duan Tianyang with a serious expression: "Master Duan, Feng Cheng is kind-hearted. Fang Quan's mistake was not his fault. Enemies should be resolved rather than created. I hope you will not take your anger out on Feng Cheng because of Fang Quan's mistake."

Duan Tianyang smiled bitterly in his heart. Now was not the time for him to look for Fang Fengcheng...

You want to place a time bomb next to me...

He removed the armor around him and invited, "This is not the place to talk. Miss Tianxin, are you willing to follow me into the city so we can have a good talk?"

Tian Xin wanted to return to the sect as soon as possible, but seeing Fang Fengcheng was stubborn, she thought for a moment and finally nodded: "Okay, please lead the way, Master Duan."

"Miss Tianxin, please!"

"Master Duan, please go first!"

A life-and-death battle that was about to break out was quietly resolved due to Tianxin's intervention.

Imagine if there was no such turn, the outcome of this duel would be hard to predict...
