"That's not necessary."

Sword Saint Dugu shook his head slightly and said to Bai Ziyi calmly.

"Why is this?" Bai Ziyi asked with a puzzled look on his face and frowned.

"Someone has already arrived, and he is even faster than me."

Dugu Sword Saint smiled slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of trust and expectation.

"Who is it?" Bai Ziyi immediately became interested. Someone who could be trusted by Dugu Jiansheng... probably not many people in this world could do that.

"We'll know in a moment."

Dugu Jiansheng did not directly answer Bai Ziyi's question, but turned around and walked forward. Seeing this, Bai Ziyi was confused, but he did not ask any more questions immediately, but just followed Dugu Jiansheng silently.

........

........

"Why you!!!"

The disheveled Jinhua Fairy looked at the figure in front of her, with nothing but panic in her eyes. This was the person she least wanted to meet.

She is also the one who is most unwilling to be saved by him.

Jianmu did not respond to Jinhua Fairy's words. He turned around and took out a coat from his storage ring. He took a few steps towards the other party, turned around and threw the coat directly on Jinhua Fairy. Then, he turned around and turned into an aurora and left without any lingering feelings at all.

"Jianmu!"

When Fairy Jinhua saw the other party leaving, there was confusion in her eyes and she didn't know what to do for a moment.

But at this time she sensed the spiritual information that someone was approaching.

"I can't let them see me in such a mess."

Fairy Jinhua gritted her teeth, feeling somewhat unwilling and helpless. She knew that she looked terrible now, and if others saw her, it would definitely cause unnecessary trouble and speculation.

Fairy Jinhua frowned, clenched her teeth, endured the pain, took out a precious healing pill from the storage ring, and swallowed it without hesitation.

Then, she gently put the coat aside and quickly used magic to stop the blood from flowing out of the wound.

She then expertly wrapped the injured area tightly with gauze, making sure that the bleeding stopped.

After completing this, she took a deep breath and performed another purification spell to cleanse all the blood and stains from her body.

After doing this, she carefully put her coat back on and tidied her clothes.

Finally, she used the flying magic, her body slowly rose into the air, and flew away. Her face was pale, but she still maintained her elegance and composure.

During the flight, she constantly adjusted her facial expressions, trying to make herself look calm.

She performed several cleansing spells on herself in succession to ensure that her image always remained in the best condition.

She finally regained her former holiness and nobility.

But beneath this holiness and nobility, there are slightly pale cheeks.

Although the pierced blood hole has stopped bleeding and the hemostatic pill has taken effect, the effect cannot be repaired instantly.

The severe pain still exists.

The pills refined by the sect cannot be compared with those made in heaven, so the effects are naturally greatly reduced.

“Those monsters…”

Fairy Jinhua looked in the direction where Master Jianmu had left, recalling the scene where Jianmu had taken action just now.

It can almost be said to be an instant kill.

A quick and clean kill, that is a move unique to Master Jianmu.

...Strangling with thorns.

This thorn is no ordinary thorn. Not only is it incomparably sharp, it also has a terrifying growth rate. The most terrifying thing is that after piercing the opponent's body, it can grow by absorbing the opponent's flesh and blood and penetrate the enemy's insides.

This is a decisive blow.

And it was with this skill that Master Jianmu successfully suppressed all the geniuses of that era. Even though his Tao heart was broken and his strength declined in the end, his strength now is still enough to easily leave them behind.

"How can I catch up with you?"

Fairy Jinhua was filled with boundless loneliness, and at this moment she finally realized that a genius is still a genius after all.

Even if a genius has suffered a great loss in combat power, he is still a genius after all.

For geniuses like them, even so, they can't catch up.

"Fairy Jinhua, are you okay?"

Bai Ziyi looked at the person in front of him with an ecstatic expression on his face, and hurriedly flew to a place about ten meters in front of Jinhua Fairy.

"Thank you, Brother Bai, for your concern. Thanks to Master Jianmu for appearing in time and saving my life."

Fairy Jinhua said with a grateful expression.

"Did Master Jianmu save you? That's great!"

Bai Ziyi said excitedly.

Dugu Jiansheng was beside him.

"Yes, but unfortunately, Yuwen Hu has been killed and devoured by the enemy."

Jinhua Fairy's eyes dimmed, revealing a hint of sadness.

"Fellow Daoist Yuwen..."

Bai Ziyi's face turned heavy, and a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes.

“Alas, it seems that even if Master Jianmu sensed the danger and rushed to rescue, he could not save Fellow Daoist Yuwen’s life.”

Dugu Sword Saint shook his head and sighed, his tone full of helplessness and regret.

"These monsters actually come from another world, and their existence is shocking."

Bai Ziyi frowned, thinking about the deeper meaning of it.

“Now we can only inform the sect about this matter and let them decide what to do next. After all, it involves the conflict between two worlds, which is beyond our capabilities.” Bai Ziyi said in a low voice.

"Yes, the gods in heaven must be informed of what is happening here."

Dugu Sword Saint nodded in agreement.

..........

..........

There are still two days left until the end of the Demon-Exterminating Conference.

At this moment, the disciples who were out have rushed back, but Li Ziting from Lingxi Sect, who was at the top of the points list, and Li Chunyang, who was in second place, are still not moving.

This made the people from Lingxi Sect and Chunyang Sect even more anxious.

The Lingxi Sect's headmaster even directly used the sect's luck to try to contact Li Ziting with the few remaining luck. However, just when he had drawn out his luck and was about to call Li Ziting...

The standings that had been quiet for a long time suddenly changed.

At this moment, the scoreboard showed a sharp rise again. Li Ziting, who already had an astonishing number of points, began to see his points soar wildly.

This scene made the head of Lingxi Sect so excited that he couldn't stop smiling.

"Hahaha……"

"Hahaha..., I knew Zi Ting was fine, I knew Zi Ting was fine, hurry up, use the jade talisman to contact Zi Ting."

The numbers on the scoreboard changed, which meant that Li Ziting had entered the range of the communication jade talisman. The elders of Lingxi Sect immediately began to try to contact him.

After a period of waiting, communication was finally successfully established.

However, along with Li Ziting's voice came a harsh and noisy sound of wind, which made everyone in Lingxi Sect realize that Li Ziting was traveling at an alarming speed.

"Ziting, how do you feel now? Can you make it back to the sect in the last two days?"

The Lingxi Sect elders were first concerned about Li Ziting's safety, and secondly asked whether he could return on time.

After all, for a sect, the safety of disciples is of vital importance.

"I feel fine now." Li Ziting replied. Then he continued, "I am working with fellow Daoist Chunyang, and we are in good condition. However, we need to go all out to return, and we expect to be able to return to the sect within two days."

"But we separated in the third area. I was a little faster than him."

Upon hearing the news, the elders and the headmaster of Lingxi Sect breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with satisfaction on their faces.

They knew that Li Ziting had always been a capable and responsible disciple, and believed that he would be able to return safely within the stipulated time.

They thought that he was worthy of being the strongest genius in their Lingxi Sect, and he did not disappoint them.

Li Ziting quickly followed them in cutting off communications, and the people from Lingxi Sect did not bother him, allowing Li Ziting to concentrate on getting back. They also knew part of the other party's ability to transform into thunder.

With the latter's speed, even if he had just stepped into the second area from the third area, there was still hope that he could get back within two days.

And two hours after Li Ziting's call.

The points of Li Chunyang, who ranked second on the standings, also began to fluctuate violently at this moment.

This made the people of Chunyang Sect, who had been impatient for a long time, feel relieved. At least Li Chunyang's safety was not a problem now.

However, when they contacted Li Chunyang, there was not only the sound of wind but also the sound of violent air tearing around him. Li Chunyang's communication did not last long. He simply reported his safety to everyone in the Chunyang Sect, then hurriedly hung up the phone and said he had to hurry on his way.

When the people of Chunyang Sect heard the voice from Li Chunyang, they felt a little relieved, but at the same time they were curious and worried about the environment he was in at the moment.

........

........

There is only half a day left before the end of the Demon-Exterminating Conference.

The Sword Master Dugu of Shushan appeared first.

Then behind him came Bai Ziyi from Changliu, and then the Jinhua Fairy from Luoshui Sect.

But at this moment, except for Dugu Jiansheng who still looked calm and composed, Bai Ziyi and Jinhua Fairy looked more or less tired.

After returning to the conference to complete the handover, they immediately returned to their sect's flying boat to adjust and rest, and then the last critical moment.

Li Xiao from Shushan also appeared.

Unlike the other disciples who came back in a mess, Li Xiao arrived leisurely while holding a dogtail grass in his mouth and stepping on his sword.

The people in Shushan didn't say anything. Most of the people in Shushan were cultivators who acted according to their own impulses, and they had already known Li Xiao's personality for a long time, so this was not surprising to them.

"Ziting, ah Ziting, you must come back soon."

Master Chunyang was very worried.

Now there is less than half a day left until the end. Although their points are still in first place, once the elders say time is up...

There is nothing they can do.

At this moment, the scene that the leader of Lingxi Sect least wanted to see appeared. He saw the Shuihua Fairy from Luoshui Sect slowly walking out of the Elders' Council.

She glanced at everyone around her and slowly said, "After years of slaying demons and eliminating evil, fellow Taoists, thank you for your hard work this time..."

"Then I, as the keeper of order for this conference, am here at this moment..."

No.

The leader of Lingxi Sect felt panic in his heart.

Boom, boom, boom!

And it was at this moment that thunder continued in the sky, and violent thunderous sounds appeared in the clear sky. Everyone only felt a flash of purple light in front of their eyes, and there was already a figure in the meeting.

"Zi Ting!!!"

The head of Lingxi Sect cried with joy; the thing he was most worried about did not happen.

This time their results were stable.

When Fairy Shuihua saw Li Ziting appear, she looked a little unhappy but didn't dare to show it. She continued, "As the order maintainer of this conference, I will not end this Demon-Slaying Conference. The elders will immediately count the valid points of the disciples who have arrived and returned, and the final ranking will be announced in three hours."

"and many more!"

As soon as Fairy Shuihua said this, Sect Leader Chunyang immediately refuted her.

"Does Master Chunyang have any questions?" Fairy Shuihua's eyes fell on Master Chunyang.

"It's only noon, why end the Demon-Slaying Conference early?" Master Chunyang said solemnly. Now that Li Ziting has returned, it means that Li Chunyang, who is two hours behind Li Ziting, will arrive soon. At this time, Fairy Shuihua announced the end of the Demon-Slaying Conference, which would make Li Chunyang's points invalid.

Without Li Chunyang's points, their Chunyang Sect's ranking would fall out of the top three.

"It takes time to calculate the points, and in order to ensure that we can return to the major sects today, it is necessary to end the conference early."

Fairy Shuihua said calmly.

"In the past, the conference always ended at the last minute, and the rankings were announced the next day." The head of the Chunyang Sect stared at Fairy Shuihua coldly. "Now Fairy Shuihua is doing this to violate the contract that the various sects had signed, or is Fairy Shuihua doing this for some unspeakable secret?"

Even though the head of Chunyang Sect, who was still in love with Fairy Shuihua and wanted to become her Taoist partner, had to fight hard for the sake of the sect.

Everyone knows that at the moment the Luoshui Sect is ranked fourth and cannot make it into the top three.

As long as they can eliminate the second-placed Chunyang Sect at this moment, they will be able to secure their place in the top three.

The head of the Chunyang sect was well aware of this little plan. Not only the head of the Chunyang sect was aware of it, but the heads of other sects were also aware of the ins and outs here.

"That's right, Fairy Shuihua, why is this conference the only one that needs to end early?"

The head of Lingxi Sect also spoke.

With the Lingxi Sect's leader speaking, the other sects that still had disciples who had not returned also spoke up in agreement. Anyway, they felt that with the Chunyang Sect at the front to support them, they were not afraid of the Luoshui Sect at all.

Not to mention the two strongest geniuses of Chunyang Sect and Lingxi Sect at this moment.

"This regulation was decided by the Council of Elders."

Fairy Shuihua’s attitude was very tough.

"Then I would like to see how many elders in the Council of Elders agree with this."

A sudden voice was heard.

Master Jianmu, dressed in a dark robe, slowly descended from the clouds in the sky.

Everyone was immediately speechless.

Fairy Shuihua, who originally had a tough attitude, did not dare to say anything more when she saw the current Master Jianmu. Jianmu was not the head of the Chunyang Sect.

If the other party is not convinced, he will really dare to take action.
