Heihan city which was originally crowded by visitors who passed by for being one of the largest trade routes in the Wei empire now looks like an uninhabited place after the thousand sword sect appealed to the residents to move to a safer place.
Of course at the time of announcing that, many of the merchants including the Jia family had refused the notice.
Even the protest by the merchant's family lasted for 2 full days.
But after being told that the city would soon become a battleground that would take a lot of casualties, the residents and traders finally submit and follow the appeal of the protective sect of the city heihan.
Currently there were only a few thousand sect warriors patrolling around the city to make sure that not a single person remained in the city.
"Do you feel there's something strange here." Said one of the students to his colleague because since then he had felt a little different air around the city.
The disciples of the thousand sword sect who were patrolling were actually several days ago assigned to supervise the surroundings of the city, but only this time one of the warriors felt a different air while patrolling around the city.
"Throw away your fear, we all feel nothing." Replied one of his friends who was greeted with a nod from his other friend.
The thousand-sword sect master who had felt this strange thing was seen pausing while staring back, but this time he was also unable to feel anything after his friend reprimanded him.
The swordsman of the thousand-sword sect finally turned his gaze back and looked at his companions who had already walked away.
"Maybe it's just my feelings." The warrior's inner self while catching up with his friends.
"Hey wait. Don't leave me." His shouting.
Without him noticing, a black-clothed swordsman who was behind the darkness was seen raising his knife with a faint murderous aura.
But after seeing the warriors begin to move away, one of his comrades immediately prevented him while shaking his head slowly.
Seeing the expression on his friend's face made him lose his killing appetite before lowering his knife back.
Meanwhile, the thousand-sword sect master was seen still wandering around the city, and after touring around a few times and making sure there was nothing there, the swordsmen of the thousand-sword sect finally decided to return.
Unbeknownst to them, after their departure from the city, dozens of red flower-masked warriors were seen coming out from behind the building and the trees that grew in the city of Heihan.
If the masks they had were not attached to his face, we might be able to see that the dozens of assassins were currently laughing grinning at the departure of the warriors of the Thousand Sword Sect.
"Actually why did chairman Xiang Yu forbid us to kill them now?." Asked one of the assassins with the murderous aura that he had been holding back.
"You'd better keep quiet and obey the chairman's orders, however the chairman has advised not to do anything before the other troops arrive." Answer his partner with a look of annoyance.
The bloodflower mercenaries who were currently in Heihan city had actually arrived since yesterday and were assigned to oversee the surrounding area of the thousand sword sect.
If only the leader of the bloodflower assassins Xiang Yu had not advised that none of them would be able to act before the main army arrived, perhaps the thousand-sword sect master who had been in the city had already lost their lives from not feeling the presence of the enemy.
Meanwhile the entire Alliance of black flow 4 pillars of fire had now almost reached the city of Heihan along with the members of the skull mountain sect led by the four swordsmen of spiritual fire owners.
Behind the four of them were seen the higher-ups of the other black-flow sects including Yu Lao from the black lightning sect.
Yuanrang who was running parallel to Gu Liang occasionally glanced at each other and dissolved into their respective minds.
"She had actually absorbed that death flame." Inner Yuanrang who could feel the aura of an extremely powerful Fighter from Gu Liang.
"It turns out that not only Yan Susu, Jin Fan and also Yuanrang were already at the level of 9-star saint swordsman, I can't possibly defeat them if I only rely on the two spiritual flames I have." His inner.
Although he currently had 2 spiritual flames, in fact Gu Liang was still not too sure of defeating the three brothers.
But if he managed to obtain the heirloom hidden within the thousand sword sect, he could already be sure of defeating them all despite having to use some cunning tricks.
"I will seize the spiritual fire that you have after getting the heirloom." Inner Gu Liang while laughing sinisterly in heart.
But at the time of looking towards Yan Susu, he somewhat dispelled the lust in his heart because he knew that his younger brother had a high soul perception.
Meanwhile, Yan Susu who was able to see there was a hint of another look from Gu Liang's eyes also became entrenched.
"It looks like he's planning something after this attack." His inner.
But Yan Susu paid no heed to it, because if Gu Liang tried to come up with another plan, he already had a secret weapon that could make Gu Liang regret his actions.

In front of the thousand-sword tower, a beautiful 16-year-old girl was seen staring blankly at the thousand-sword tower.
"Sister Ling Yan, it's been the 15th day since you entered the tower of a thousand swords, why haven't you come out from there yet." Inner the girl.
The look of the beautiful girl looks glassy before finally a man dressed all white with a long beard patted his shoulders slowly and made him wake up from his daydream.
"Master Shen Yu!!" The girl was a little surprised.
Shen Yu looked at the girl with a slightly pityed look before saying.
"This is the third time I've found you here." Shen Yu said to the girl who was none other than Xui.
Shen Yu then turned his gaze towards the thousand sword tower while saying.
"It seems you have a very close relationship with my student, I can see it all from the look in your eyes."
Xui's cheeks flushed slightly at Shen Yu's statement, and made him unable to get any words out of his mouth.
Shen Yu then smiled back without taking his eyes off the thousand sword tower.
"You know, waiting for someone very precious to us is very hard, because I've felt the same way as you." Shen Yu said, remembering the past.
Ling Xuilan who heard that looked frowned.
"You know I also once had the hope of being reunited with the most precious person in my life, even if it was impossible, but when I met Ling Yan, he's back to make me remember memories with that guy."
Shen Yu looked at the blue sky while recalling the times when he could be together with his teacher Shen Long.
"Hahaha why am I even telling you this." Shen Yu chuckled slightly before turning her gaze again towards Ling Xuilan.
