In truth, by this point, he could already guess that these deaths were somehow connected to the young man now living across from him.

"This man worked those poor handymen — most of whom had never cultivated a day in their lives, some not even reaching Qi training — literally to death, day and night without rest. Over fifty of them were whipped to death directly by his own hand." Jasmine said.

"Who discovered this and reported it?" Silas fell silent for a moment before asking again.

    The man bore half the blame for his father's death.And now, even the vast territory Cassius had fought so hard to secure was being swallowed up all over again."Evander Lysander — do you know why I chose not to kill you outright? I want you to watch this sect get devoured, piece by piece. Remember well — this is the price you pay for driving me out all those years ago!And this is only the beginning. You'll continue tasting this bitter fruit for quite some time yet.""What I said yesterday still stands. Anyone who shares my vision is welcome to join me in the Duskfiend Sect. I won't be like Cassius Lysander, unable to tolerate outsiders. The Ten Realms belong to all of you."Kieran stood at the bow of the ship, radiating commanding presence, black robes billowing in the wind, an unmistakable satisfaction written across his face."Julian Crest — do you dare face me!" Suddenly, he shifted his attention, looking toward the young man standing beside Evander.They were, after all, still y

    The vision of the Four Seasons emerged around Julian as he unleashed his own inherited technique — the Four Seasons Sword Art."Your cultivation surpasses mine, and your swordsmanship's improved considerably too. Pity that talent alone isn't quite enough."Kieran shook his head lightly, mildly disdainful at how evenly Julian matched him using only the Four Seasons Sword Art."Comprehension is its own form of talent. We each have our strengths — you're not necessarily better than me!" Julian shot back, entirely unshaken by the remark."AH!" At that moment, a scream rang out.The Sky Burial Sect's forces suffered their first true loss — an early-stage Golden Core true monarch was killed outright, blood raining down from the sky."Do these true monarchs really enjoy exploding into bloody chunks mid-fight? Can't any of them just die with their bodies intact?"Silas, watching from hundreds of miles away, felt genuinely troubled by the sight.What a waste."What's happening? Why does it fee

    "Nascent Soul won't intervene, is that so?" Evander glanced back at the two true monarchs standing behind him and sneered."Weathering a tribulation, attempting Nascent Soul?" Kieran had no patience left for further banter, turning his attention instead toward Cassius, still mid-tribulation.The tribulation had already passed its halfway point, and Cassius's condition had reached the point of complete exhaustion.He pulled out a pill — a Greater Restoration Pill, the enhanced version of the Pill of Restoration.Instantly, Cassius's vitality surged back, restored to full strength."Surround them! Don't let anyone behind Kieran make a move!" Evander noticed the three intruders' shared glance and issued the order at once.Across the field, Kieran withdrew his gaze and turned once more toward the assembled true monarchs of the Sky Burial Sect."Do you all know the real reason the sword-holding elder was stripped of his position?"The true monarchs exchanged uneasy glances. Wherever they s

    He'd already mastered every technique the Sky Burial Sect had to offer, and what the sword-holding elder had ultimately granted him was this continued advancement of his spiritual root.Half a month later, thunder rolled and fierce winds howled across the sky.Silas opened his eyes from cultivation, his spiritual awareness spreading outward, and quickly discovered a thunder tribulation forming over the farthest reaches of the Sky Burial Sect's back mountain.Cassius Lysander? He's attempting his Nascent Soul breakthrough? He let out a startled breath, watching the figure beneath the descending tribulation.Hm?His spiritual awareness pressed forward another fifty miles, extending beyond the Sky Burial Sect's own territory entirely.This was the first time he'd ever done so.Kieran Voss? Silas thought, genuinely surprised.The Nascent Soul tribulation was no ordinary trial — its mortality rate ran extraordinarily high.Generally speaking, attempting a breakthrough to Nascent Soul requi

    Silas recalled that day and answered, entirely serious: "The tribulation I faced was several times more terrifying than this one. I very nearly died — genuinely came close to failing entirely. Senior Sister might never have gotten the chance to claim me at all, had things gone differently.""Doesn't that just prove how strong Junior Brother truly is?" Jasmine rested her head gently against his shoulder.Above Zenith Peak, Julian's robes hung in tatters, his appearance thoroughly disheveled.His earlier Foundation Establishment tribulation had been suspected by some of being something of a performance — but there was no faking this one.He lost two top-grade spiritual weapons in the process and consumed an unknown quantity of blood-restoring pills along the way."The heavenly tribulation's finally over, and there's a Golden Core sitting in his stomach now. Here's hoping Senior Brother advances all the way to true monarch." A few disciples in the crowd watched with glowing, envious eyes

    That night, Jasmine slipped quietly into Silas's room."Be careful. You and I absolutely cannot let our dual cultivation slip in front of those two sword cultivators.""Also — this is supposed to be serious dual cultivation. Why are you undressing me? After a full year of practice, I've already mastered the proper technique. There's no need for all this.""By the way — are you ever going to tell me about your rebirth? If you went back to your original identity, you'd still carry the title of senior sister, with all manner of glory and privilege restored to you.""Is Junior Brother testing me right now? You're the one who gave me back my life. From this point forward, I intend to follow my junior brother faithfully, even unto death.When I was cast out, my own master never spoke a single word in my defense. When I was strong and useful, she profited handsomely from my status. Whatever grievances and debts existed between us were settled long ago.Right now, your senior sister only want
