<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At this moment, a few lines of golden text appeared before Su Jingzhen's eyes.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The scene of his fierce and valiant battle earlier had once again stirred up intense emotions in Shengana and Qiu Yaoyao.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Initially, Qiu Yaoyao had thought that after awakening her Heavenly Dragon Tribulation Body and breaking through to the Spirit Immortal realm, her combat power had increased significantly. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At the very least, she believed that she had surpassed Su Jingzhen in terms of fighting strength.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, it now seemed that she had overestimated herself.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen's combat power had far surpassed hers, and she knew that he hadn't even gone all out during the fight.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">While she was proud of Su Jingzhen, Qiu Yaoyao couldn't help but feel a tinge of worry.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen was just too extraordinary. Even her Heavenly Dragon Tribulation Body couldn't bridge the gap between them.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">On the other side, Chen Lang descended to the ground and looked at Su Jingzhen with a curious gaze.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Then he walked over to Su Jingzhen with a fan in his hand.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"May I ask, fellow Daoist, what is your name and which sect do you hail from?" Chen Lang asked with a smile as he approached.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Qingyuan Sect, Zou Zeyu," Su Jingzhen replied calmly.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">This false identity was something that would be revealed eventually, so he had no issue sharing it with Chen Lang.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Chen Lang nodded and then lightly patted Su Jingzhen's shoulder.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Looking at the corpses scattered on the ground, he said, "Well done. With you here, I feel much more comfortable. Ying'er will surely shine brightly in the Sword Qi Corridor. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Using these insignificant people to test your strength has reassured me. Don't feel burdened - accidents are bound to happen during sparring."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After saying this, he nodded at Su Jingzhen again and then turned to look at Lin Ying who had just arrived.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"In that case, I won't bother you anymore, Ying'er. With Fellow Daoist Zou accompanying you, I am quite reassured. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">I wish you success in obtaining the opportunities you seek. Let's meet again when you come out of the corridor."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">His tone remained as casual as ever, showing no sign of anger.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After speaking, he left without hesitation.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">It was unclear whether he truly had no lingering feelings or if he was simply trying to mask his embarrassment.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, Su Jingzhen felt a growing sense of unease.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He had just killed ten of Chen Lang's most capable subordinates, yet the man showed no anger. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Instead, he had been cheerful and even spoke with Su Jingzhen at length.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">This level of composure was terrifying.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">In Su Jingzhen's view, given Chen Lang's background and strength, he should have been furious. He should have called for more powerful reinforcements on the spot and had Su Jingzhen killed on the spot.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">If that had happened, Su Jingzhen wouldn't have been so worried. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">It would have simply confirmed that Chen Lang was nothing more than a spoiled young master who relied on his family's influence.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But Chen Lang hadn't done that.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He hadn't even made a single threat.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen had already prepared for the worst. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">If Chen Lang had called in stronger reinforcements or even his grandfather, the Third Elder of Sword Land, Su Jingzhen would have had no choice but to use the token given to him by the Grand Elder of the Immortal Palace before his departure.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, things hadn't gone according to the script he had imagined.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"This guy is a formidable character. I've definitely made an enemy of him now. Having someone of such high status and strength secretly holding a grudge against me is quite unsettling," 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen muttered to himself, his gaze shifting to Lin Ying beside him.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Lin Ying's eyes were filled with excitement.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Fellow Daoist Zou, you truly are full of surprises," she said, her eyes sparkling.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, she didn't push any further.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">She had known for a long time that Su Jingzhen couldn't possibly be from the Qingyuan Sect.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But regardless of where he came from, this time he was fighting for her. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As long as Su Jingzhen didn't violate the Heavenly Dao Oath they had sworn, it didn't matter.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">She then added, "Consider this a minor incident. There's no need to pay attention to someone like Chen Lang."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As soon as Lin Ying finished speaking, several Sword Land disciples emerged from the crowd and began to collect the corpses of Sun Feilong and the others, including Chen Lang's subordinates.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Lin Ying then led Su Jingzhen and the others back to her residence.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After this battle, although many Sword Land disciples greeted Lin Ying along the way, there were no further obstacles.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Even though she was ranked last among the Ten Great Holy Maidens, she was still one of them. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Her residence in Sword Land was a large mansion with many disciples and maids bustling around.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The dignity of a Holy Maiden was on full display.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Lin Ying brought them to a luxurious courtyard.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Fellow Daoist Zou, you can rest here for now. Remember, do not wander around outside of this estate. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Sword Land has many forbidden areas. As for the rest of you, please rest and recover from your injuries. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">We can enter the Sword Qi Corridor early tomorrow morning."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After giving these instructions, Lin Ying hurriedly left. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">It seemed that she still had many things to prepare before entering the Sword Qi Corridor the next day.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen nodded. With nothing else to do, he was content to enjoy the peace.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Killing a bunch of people and showing off his strength, and still coming out unscathed, was the best result Su Jingzhen could have hoped for.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen and the others didn't pay much attention to where Lin Ying went or where Li Lingxi and Ning Yao were at the moment.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He also didn't care how many powerful experts in Sword Land had scanned their courtyard with their divine consciousness.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">For the rest of the day, no one disturbed them.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The next morning, as the sky began to light up, Su Jingzhen awoke from his cultivation.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The daily fixed points came as usual.

【Daily Fixed Points: Zhang Xiu: 4, Shuang Jiang: 15……】

【Remaining Available Points: 21,947】

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Seeing Zhang Xiu's name on the list of fixed points, Su Jingzhen's lips curled into a gentle smile.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He knew that after this trip to Sword Land, Zhang Xiu's points would no longer be just four.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At this thought, another figure surfaced in his mind.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">No matter the outcome, at least he had found Zhang Xiu.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But Shuang Jiang, who had also disappeared into the Clear Wind Mountain Valley, was still nowhere to be found.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As dawn broke, Lin Ying reappeared in the courtyard.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, she seemed to have shed the gloom of the previous day.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">She looked radiant and full of energy.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Fellow Daoists, the time has come. Please follow me to the Sword Qi Corridor."
