“Chen Fei is currently the leader of the Five Sects Alliance. If he dies, the Primordial Sword Sect will decline, and the Five Sects Alliance will practically cease to exist. At that time, the Sea Peak City would surely fall into chaos! But merely killing Chen Fei won’t be enough to seize control of the secret realm!”

Qin Chunyi pondered for a moment, then shook his head.

“So, what do you suggest we do?” Pu Chunxu asked in a low voice.

“We capture Chen Fei and take control of him!” Qin Chunyi chuckled softly.

“But Chen Fei is exceptionally talented and undoubtedly proud. It would be extremely difficult to control him,” Pu Chunxu shook his head.

“If he fears death, we can control him. If he doesn’t fear death, then let him

truly die!”

A glint of coldness flashed in Qin Chunyi’s eyes. If he cooperates, he can live; if not, there’s no need for him to live.

In the end, it was just a third-grade inferior secret realm. When the Death Shadow Sect was at its peak, it controlled four secret realms of this level. If it weren’t for the current special circumstances, the Death Shadow Sect wouldn’t have gone to such lengths to scheme for a third-grade secret realm.

“In that case, let’s find someone to capture Chen Fei. Whether to kill him or spare him, we’ll decide when the person arrives,” Pu Chunxu nodded.

“Speaking of Chen Fei, I’ve specifically examined the information in our internal library and found something interesting. You should take a look.”

Qin Chunyi spoke and took out a jade slip from his sleeve, placing it on the table in front of Pu Chunxu.

Pu Chunxu looked at Qin Chunyi with some confusion, then probed into the jade slip with a bit of his consciousness. After a moment, Pu Chunxu furrowed his brow slightly and withdrew his consciousness.

“Are the anomalies with Duan Muxiao and Kou Yuanhe related to this Chen

Fei?” Pu Chunxu asked Qin Chunyi.

Although Pu Chunxu and Qin Chunyi were both in the late stages of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, Qin Chunyi usually handled the main affairs of the Death Shadow Sect, while Pu Chunxu focused more on cultivation.

After many years of development, the Death Shadow Sect had reached a bottleneck. To further develop, the sect needed a peak Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivator to emerge.

In terms of talent, Pu Chunxu was much stronger than Qin Chunyi. Initially, when he advanced to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, he successfully condensed a high-quality Combined Aperture, capable of withstanding the weight of three Flowers of essence.

However, Qin Chunyi had encountered an accident during his advancement to the Hexagonal Transformation, ultimately achieving only a medium-quality Combined Aperture. It was nearly impossible for him to reach the peak of three converging flowers; condensing two Flower of Essence was already his limit.

Qin Chunyi took on the daily affairs of the Death Shadow Sect, so after arriving in the Sea Peak City, he deliberately searched for information on various Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators and discovered something unusual.

“After accepting the task to assassinate Chen Fei, Duan Muxiao didn’t disappear. Instead, he remained active for several years. However, during these years, some of his actions were slightly different from his usual behavior, leading us to suspect that Duan Muxiao might have died,” Qin Chunyi explained.

“So, we sent Kou Yuanhe to confirm?” Pu Chunxu asked.

“Yes!”

Qin Chunyi nodded, continuing, “Initially, we didn’t notice any issues with Kou Yuanhe. But recently, when Haiyucheng summoned manpower to defend against the Sea Demons, Kou Yuanhe completely vanished.”

Pu Chunxu’s eyes narrowed slightly. Kou Yuanhe had always kept his information concealed from the outside world, so the summoning of Haiyucheng shouldn’t have affected him.

However, Kou Yuanheng disappeared without appearing at any of the Death Shadow Sect’s contact points, not even returning to Haiya City once.

Clearly, Kou Yuanheng was already dead.

“Chen Fei broke through to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm within less than ten years, right?” Pu Chunxu furrowed his brow.

In less than ten years, he advanced from the early Combined Aperture Tempering realm to the middle Combined Aperture Tempering realm, then killed Kou Yuanhe. Isn’t this possibility a bit low?

“It might be related to Chen Fei, but not necessarily him directly. It’s just that the disappearances of Duan Muxiao and Kou Yuanhe happen to have some connection with Chen Fei,” Qin Chunyi said, unsure.

After all, advancing from the early to the middle Combined Aperture Tempering realm within ten years, even faster than the geniuses in the entire alliance, seemed a bit exaggerated.

-It’s probably just a coincidence, but we can’t afford to be careless,” Pu Chunxu pondered for a moment.

“Yeah,” Qin Chunyi nodded.

“But as a precaution, sending someone at the early Combined Aperture Tempering realm stage again isn’t appropriate, and it would attract too much attention. So, I’ve decided to send the Wu brothers. With their strength, even if there are unforeseen circumstances, they can handle it properly!

“Agreed!” Pu Chunxu nodded after some consideration.

The Wu brothers, triplets, had been of one mind since childhood. If one of them mastered a certain technique, the others could comprehend it at an extremely fast pace.

It was precisely due to this somewhat peculiar talent that the Wu brothers continuously delved into various techniques, enhancing their own foundations.

In just over two hundred years, all three of them had reached the fifth stage of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, just one step away from entering the late Combined Aperture Tempering realm stage.

Because reaching the Hexagonal Transformation of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm was crucial for their future advancement to the peak of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, the Wu brothers were extremely cautious, aiming for a high-quality Combined Aperture.

Otherwise, if they had set their sights lower, they would have long been three formidable cultivators at the late Combined Aperture Tempering realm stage, significantly bolstering the strength of the Death Shadow Sect.

The Death Shadow Sect fully supported the plans of the Wu brothers. After all, their telepathic connection and exceptional talents surpassed those of many others, promising a bright future.

Currently, when the Wu brothers executed missions together, the power they unleashed was not much weaker than that of ordinary late Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators.

While killing them might be impossible, even a newly advanced late Combined Aperture Tempering realm warrior would find it challenging to take down the

Wu brothers.

Regarding Chen Fei, the most optimistic estimate was that he had reached the mid Combined Aperture Tempering realm stage, which was already quite exaggerated. With the Wu brothers going together, success was practically guaranteed.

Chen Fei was still in seclusion at the Primordial Sword Sect. Except for occasional visits from Chi Shuqing, no one else disturbed him.

One day, Qu Qingsheng greeted a group of people who arrived on a boat. They were the advance party from the Pinnacle Peak Sect.

As the Pinnacle Peak Sect was relocating to the Sea Peak City, it was natural to choose the best location for their mountain gate. Therefore, they had sent a group to select a site and begin construction in advance.

“Recently, I’ve troubled Sect Leader Qu a lot,” Wei Zikuan said, clasping his hands in front of Qu Qingsheng.

Although Wei Zikuan’s cultivation had reached the pinnacle of the Aperture Tempering realm, far surpassing Qu Qingsheng, he didn’t dare show any disrespect toward him.

“Sect Leader Wei, there’s no need to be so polite,” Qu Qingsheng smiled and waved his hand.

As they received and accommodated their guests, inspected the site for the mountain gate, the atmosphere remained cordial throughout. Wei Zikuan was quite satisfied with the locations suggested by the Primordial Sword Sect.

In just a few days, they would be able to gather manpower and begin constructing the Pinnacle Peak Sect’s mountain gate in the Sea Peak City.

In Yellow Stone City, at the Thousand Yard Sect.

“Qu Qingsheng received the representatives from the Pinnacle Peak Sect?” Ye Qishan’s brow furrowed upon hearing the report from the elders of the sect.

Ye Qishan was naturally familiar with the Pinnacle Peak Sect. While he might not have an in-depth understanding of all the third-tier powers within the Thousand Feathers Alliance, their reputation was well-known.

Compared to other third-tier powers, the Pinnacle Peak Sect was renowned for its defensive techniques. Breaking through their defenses in a short period was difficult even for peers.

Moreover, the strongest member of the Pinnacle Peak Sect was a female martial artist, a rarity among various sects.

“Continue to investigate!” Ye Qishan pondered for a moment, then spoke in a deep voice.

If the relationship between the Primordial Sword Sect and the Pinnacle Peak Sect was extremely amicable, subsequent actions against the Primordial Sword Sect might have to be more restrained.

While the Pinnacle Peak Sect’s techniques excelled in defense, it didn’t mean they were incapable of offense. Their offensive capabilities, however, were relatively less remarkable compared to their defensive skills, merely falling within the normal standards for martial artists.

It was rumored that Tong Linyun, the strongest member of the Pinnacle Peak Sect, had already reached the fifth transformation of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, just one step away from entering the late Combined Aperture Tempering realm stage.

However, this step seemed to have thwarted countless individuals. Ye Qishan couldn’t judge whether Tong Linyun would be able to advance to the late Combined Aperture Tempering realm stage.

But even with just his current strength at the fifth stage of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, Tong Linyun was already much stronger than the Thousand Yard Sect.

Thinking about this, Ye Qishan couldn’t help but furrow his brow.

Three hours later.

“So, the Pinnacle Peak Sect is settling in the Sea Peak City, and the Primordial Sword Sect is assisting them in selecting their mountain gate locations?

Ye Qishan looked at the map in his hand. A red dot represented the location of the Primordial Sword Sect. The potential locations for the Pinnacle Peak Sect’s mountain gates were not very far from the Primordial Sword Sect.

In other words, if anything happened to the Primordial Sword Sect, the Pinnacle Peak Sect could rush over immediately upon receiving the news.

“It seems the Primordial Sword Sect has truly allied with the Pinnacle Peak Sect!” Ye Qishan lightly tapped the table.

With such proximity, many of the Primordial Sword Sect’s original resource points would likely have to be ceded to the Pinnacle Peak Sect. But whether aligning with a third-tier power was a gain or a loss was difficult to determine. Leaving aside other matters, if the Pinnacle Peak Sect indeed appeared in the Sea Peak City, they would be an obstacle that the Thousand Yard Sect couldn’t bypass if they still wanted that particular secret realm.

“I’ve heard that the Pinnacle Peak Sect isn’t interested in any of the Primordial Sword Sect’s original resource points, including that third-grade secret realm. They will seek out new resource points on their own,” hesitated the elder of the Thousand Yard Sect.

“Not interested in any of them?” Ye Qishan’s head lifted with a puzzled expression.

The Primordial Sword Sect has aligned with your Pinnacle Peak Sect, and you’ve accepted them, but if you’re not interested in any of their resource points or even the secret realm, then what are you aiming for?

Are you expecting the Primordial Sword Sect to help you establish a mountain gate?

“Have you heard anything else?” Ye Qishan asked, pressing down his doubts. “The Pinnacle Peak Sect will officially arrive in the Sea Peak City in one month, said the Thousand Yard Sect elder.

“One month later…” Ye Qishan’s brow furrowed deeper.

The Pinnacle Peak Sect’s unusually favorable attitude toward the Primordial Sword Sect and their unexpected appearance in the Sea Peak City in one month were perplexing.

The Thousand Yard Sect had originally planned to slowly suppress the Primordial Sword Sect and the other four sects, persuading them to voluntarily relinquish some of the third-grade secret realms. But now, it seemed there was no time left.

Unless the elders of the sect directly intervened, but that would violate the rules of the Thousand Feathers Alliance.

Despite the past unrest within the Thousand Feathers Alliance, the alliance had not truly disbanded. Actions that went too far might have been investigated and addressed afterward..
