Judging by his abilities, it wouldnt be difficult for him to obliterate our world, but why doesnt he just do so? Whats his purpose in coming to our world? This is what has been boggling my mind. The Snow Sword Immortals tall slender body stood on the mountaintop as her hair danced along the winds, exuding outstanding beauty. At that moment, under the white mask, her brows were tense, and her voice carried a tone that amazed even herself.

He comes from such a formidable background? That is all the more reason to not trust him. The Old Sword Immortals face grew even more taut, as the suspicion in his heart thickened. There was no way he would believe that Gu Changge came without a purpose, as genuine kindness was non-existent in this world, let alone from an Otherworldly Sky Demon.

According to what he knew, those Otherworldly Sky Demons had taken down numerous ancient worlds similar to Profound Sword World. In his perspective, them claiming to prioritise longevity and peace was nothing but nonsense that shouldnt be believed.

That is not for certain. If he is indeed scheming against our world, why go through such great lengths? The Snow Sword Immortal lightly shook her head.

Do you really intend to trust him? The Old Sword Immortal revealed a scowl. His glare was incredibly piercing, causing air to tremble, and his tone carried dissatisfaction as he spoke with an extremely stern expression. Xiao Xue (Little Snow), you are the Cliff Master. Please think things through before you make a decision and not be as rash as you once were.

In terms of seniority, he was on the same level as the Snow Sword Immortals Master. In earlier years, he had even personally instructed her. Thus, he had some understanding of her personality. Therefore, upon hearing her out, he could tell that she was planning to meet with Gu Changge.

Nonetheless, according to the reports, Gu Changges escorting subordinate seemed to be a formidable cultivator of the Ninth Realm. Needless to say, Gu Changge himself must possess strength that was even more immeasurable and unfathomable.

Although the Snow Sword Immortal was now in Earth Sword Immortal Realm, she was definitely inferior to Gu Changge. Hence, if Gu Changge bore a malicious intent, she would be walking straight into the lions den.

At this point, do I have any other choice? The Snow Sword Immortals face remained still. Ive contemplated the consequences. Stop worrying about me, Uncle Master.

You With an infuriated expression, the Old Sword Immortal pointed at the Snow Sword Immortal with his shaking finger, obviously enraged.

Eventually, seeing her emotionlessness, he subconsciously heaved a sigh towards the sky and turned into a divine rainbow, angrily leaving.

Now that the Snow Sword Immortal had made her decision, he wouldnt be able to change her mind. Regardless, he was still sceptical of Gu Changge.

From his perspective, since Gu Changges identity and position was so terrifying in the Upper Realm, he could instil fear in the Forces of the Upper Realm by capturing Gu Changge as intimidation, and it might even prove useful at crucial moments.

It is time to bring out the Sword Immortal Order and gather all the Sword Immortals to take down those damn Otherworldly Sky Demons

Thousands of swords made of light whirled in the eyes of the Old Sword Immortal as he traversed through the sky in the void. In a flash, he vanished from the world as he headed towards the Shu Sect.

Seeing the Old Sword Immortal disappear, the Snow Sword Immortal, who stood still for a long time, let out a soft sigh.

*Boom!* With that, her body transformed into a white mist and she reappeared at a spot thousands of kilometres away.

Deep down, she understood the Old Sword Immortals concern, but certain things were worth a try, as they could be the one and only opportunity for the entire Profound Sword World.

In Profound Sword World, there were Thirteen States in total, and every state stood giant, dominant Forces such as Sword Cliff and Shu Sect. These Forces possessed legacies that had survived thousands of years, and within, there were at least two beings that were Earth Sword Immortals.

Therefore, news of Gu Changges appearance in Southern Light Empire speedily spread among these huge Forces and caused great commotions. Given that he was an outsider from another world, he was classified as one of the Otherworldly Sky Demons. However, he didnt seem to be hostile, as if he was merely here for a relaxing trip.

Apart from that, several other details, including Gu Changges origin and motives, were constantly being questioned by the huge Forces, leading to numerous inferences.

Although he had rescued Chen Ah Qing as well as Princess Xuan Dea of the Southern Light Empire, most were still unable to fully trust him. After all, an outsider would never bear the same mindset as the natives.

Thereupon, some expressed their concern, and some even disdained him, thinking that he must not bear a good heart since his intentions were unclear. Thus, he must be guarded against.

Nevertheless, the Southern Light Emperor remained highly trustful of Gu Changges words. Hence, he began amassing the surrounding Forces, even sending men to scour for the location of the Worlds Will.

According to Gu Changge, the Worlds Will would not stay awake continually. Instead, it would only awaken at specific moments, while at other times, it would usually choose to remain in deep slumber. Thus, unless they could locate it, they wouldnt be able to awaken it.

Days later, a terrorising battle erupted in the Southbarren State.

The vast army of the Upper Realm descended and began their annihilation of the forces of the Southern Light Empire. It created ruins all over the state. The scene was catastrophic.

The ferocious battle turned rivers red and piled bones into hills. Blood accumulated into rivers that was filled with floating skulls, as the sky was engulfed in gloom.

At once, the other Forces of the state also dispatched their armies to provide support.

Indubitably, this battle was the true beginning of the Upper Realms assault on Profound Sword World.

Profound Sword World was submerged in horrifying darkness. Too many of the powerful cultivators perished as giant territories collapsed into a broken land dyed in crimson.

In the battle, the young prodigies that came from the Upper Realm performed splendidly, devastating their enemies without any setbacks.

However, instead of participating in the army attacks, they headed to various cities alone and challenged the younger generation of the foreign world with overbearing complacency and rampancy, feigning not the slightest respect to them.

Naturally, the fate of the world was determined. Even the disciples of Sword Cliff, Shu Sect, Kong Mountain, and other Forces of Profound Sword World were no match for the younger generation of the Upper Realm. Thus, they could either flee, or be slaughtered on the spot as their life faded away and their blood splattered everywhere.

In the meantime, in Ancient Mulberry City, located in the northernmost region of North Cool State of the Profound Sword World. This city grew to fame thanks to an ancient mulberry tree a long time ago. Alas, as time went by, the ancient mulberry tree within Ancient Mulberry City had wilted, leaving behind only its withered stump. Nevertheless, the city kept the name,

After leaving the Southern Light Empire with Ah Qing, Gu Changge arrived at Ancient Mulberry City, and he was now waiting for her to meet with her mother.

The city was impaired and its gates were falling apart. Almost drying out, the river that protected the city also became cloudy as it was filled with silt. Loaches could be seen drilling around in the river of the devastated city.

Halt! Identify yourselves! On the scarred aged walls of the city, there were a dozen soldiers. Clad in incomplete armours, they held their metal lances and rusty blades warily as they shouted at Gu Changge and the rest who were approaching.

Following the invasion of the Otherworldly Sky Demons, although Ancient Mulberry City was far away from the battle, after receiving news of it, everyone in the city grew immensely cautious and treated everyone as enemies.

Besides, the city was extremely isolated, and visibly, it had experienced a difficult time recently. Even the lives of the innocent residents became extremely arduous.

In that instant, the soldiers were highly guarded, ready to strike as runes gleamed on their body. It was rare for them to see someone as extraordinary as Gu Changge and his outworldly outfit.

Im back. At that moment, Ah Qing, the young woman, with her complicated gaze fixed at the ancient city before her, walked up from Gu Changges back.

Originally, Ancient Mulberry City was under her maternal grandfathers care. Although it was isolated, it wasnt as damaged as it was now. Thus, something must have happened during the period she had disappeared.

Ever since her father stepped into the Space Rift, she and her mother moved to the city from an inconspicuous area to live with her maternal grandfather. And half a year ago, she secretly left the ancient city and began searching for her father.

What happened to Ancient Mulberry City? Why has it ended up like this? Princess Xuan Dea, who followed them, was also stupefied. Thanks to her relationship with Chen Ah Qing, she had visited Ancient Mulberry City in the past.

Back then, although the city wasnt exactly prosperous, it wasnt as miserable as this. The city was in a state so atrocious that one would have assumed that it was another city.

This city is indeed strange, Gu Changge said with an odd sensation in his eyes. There were black and white colours intertwining in his eyes as he observed the surroundings.

What?

Is that really Lady Ah Qing? Lady Ah Qing has returned?

The soldiers on the wall recognised Ah Qing and widened their dismayed eyes out of stupefaction.

Turns out, news regarding Ah Qing had yet to spread to her from Southbarren State. They had always assumed that she had died in the other world. Her grandfather had almost passed out as he was unable to accept the truth.

Nonetheless, never did they expect that they would get to see Ah Qing again, and now, they were even suspecting that they were under an illusion.

Yes, its me. I have returned. Ah Qing nodded, her complicated gaze filled with daze.

Incredible! Its really Lady Ah Qing! Lady Ah Qing is fine! Report to the City Lord at once! The soldiers on the wall were thrilled, unable to control their excitement.

Very soon, the entire Ancient Mulberry City was startled. Ah Qing, who had vanished for more than half a year, suddenly returned safely and that caused an enormous commotion throughout the city.

Divine rainbows flashed over as everyone from the City Lord Manor gathered to see her. Even the old City Lord himself hurried over right after hearing the news. Tears flowed down his wrinkled face as he was exhilarated.

Grandfather Looking at her grandfather, who had visibly grown older, Ah Qing felt a tingle in her nose and muttered, Im sorry

Its fine. Its fine. Now that youre back, all is well. Youre safe and thats all that matters.

The old City Lords figure was somewhat hunched. Every strand of his hair was white, resembling metal needles. As if he was an old lion of great prestige, he carried a majestic aura, and it was clear that he was an extraordinary, heroic figure back when he was young.

At that moment, he reached out his boney hand and caressed Ah Qings head as comfort arose in his eyes.

I apologise for having made you worry. I shouldnt have sneaked out of Ancient Mulberry City to look for Father behind both yours and mothers back Ah Qing remorsefully stated.

Its all in the past. Your safety is all that matters. Your mother has been worrying about you all this time and almost fell sick. Now, she can finally be at ease, knowing that youre back, the old City Lord sighed and replied.

As he spoke, his gaze fell upon Gu Changge, who was behind Ah Qing. Thereupon, he asked with a questioning and confused tone. This is?

He could recognise Princess Xuan Dea, but Gu Changge was a total stranger to him. And now that his granddaughter suddenly returned and brought that young man with her, it was only reasonable that he felt baffled. Furthermore, even with his cultivation level, he couldnt see through Gu Changge, which left him in awe.

Where is mother? Although Ah Qing was somewhat concerned, she clarified in response, This is Young Master Gu, my saviour. If it werent for him, I couldnt have made it back safely.

Saviour? The old City Lord was taken aback, but he managed to repress the ceaseless confusion in his mind and welcomed Ah Qing and the rest into the city.

On their way, he briefly told Ah Qing about the recent incidents, including how Ancient Mulberry City had fallen this badly. Ultimately, back then, Ah Qings father offended some foes and they had come to seek revenge after he had vanished.

Fathers past foes? Coldness surged on Ah Qings petite face as she clenched her soft white fists.

Her father was an Earth Sword Immortal, so the enemies must be powerful cultivators of the Eighth Realm or the Ninth Realm at least, while her grandfather was only in Seventh Realm, hence he was unable to resist them.

Are they still troubling us now? Ah Qing questioned with a murderous look.

Hearing that, the old City Lord revealed a smile and shook his head. Some time ago, for some reason, those that came to cause trouble suddenly disappeared. I believe its your fathers friends whore helping us in the dark.

I see Ah Qing heaved a sigh of relief. Since her father had disappeared, it was now her responsibility to protect her grandfather and her mother.

[Who knew this place is where Spirit Veins intersect] After entering Ancient Mulberry City, Gu Changge gradually grew astounded.

Although the city appeared barren from the outside, in his eyes, he could perceive Purple Qi transpirating and engulfing the skies, as if Immortals were returning to heaven while dragons soared towards the sky. Such terrain obviously could only appear when thousands of Spirit Veins intersect to create such wonders. In other words, this city was significantly more precious than the Southern Light Empires Imperial Palace.

[Is something perhaps hidden underneath the city, or is something special about it?] Gu Changge wondered with a pondering look.

Very soon, in the City Lord Manor, Ah Qing finally reunited with her mother, whom she hadnt seen for half a year. Unable to contain her emotions, she spent half the day to finally calm herself down.

Silly girl, you left without a word. Do you know how worried Ive been the past few months? Ah Qings mother spoke with a criticising tone as she tightly grasped her daughters hands.

Sorry. Im so sorry. Ive returned, and I will never leave you again. I believe father did not fall into the hands of the Otherworldly Sky Demons. According to the information Ive gathered, he managed to break through once again at the crucial moment and managed to escape deeper into the Space Rift. After taking a couple of deep breaths, Ah Qing slowly spoke.

I knew your father wouldnt fall so easily. Upon those words, Ah Qings mother and grandfather let out a sigh of relief.

With that, Ah Qings mother turned to Gu Changge and curiously asked, So this young man is the saviour you mentioned?

Although Gu Changge appeared to be extraordinary and benign, she had an inexplicable hunch that such a person shouldnt be here and that he was from a different world.

Yes, Young Master Gu rescued me. Actually, he comes from the other world Ah Qings eyes bore gratitude. After a moment of thought, she nodded and revealed the truth, intending to explain the situation.

From the other world?

Right away, a surprised voice sounded outside the hall. A young man wearing a butlers attire around his mediocre physique, who was fetching tea over, stood still, seemingly stunned.
