Legend has it that the Golden Glass Beads Staff belonged to the first Master of the Qingyun School. It was forged from spiritual stones of the Three Mountains and sealed with the soul of a great demon. As time passed, the soul merged with the golden pearls, increasing the power of this treasure.

The Three Mountains: Mt Penglai, Mt Fangzhang, Mt Yingzhou—the three sacred mountains where immortals lived.

But a powerful spiritual weapon alone is not enough, since it is controlled by a person.

If that person is not virtuous enough, he is certain to meet a disaster.

As Zhang Mu saw it, this Buddhist cane couldn’t show its best in Bei Shu’s hands, and all the more Changming lacked qualifications to hold it.

He pierced it with his spear, and the golden beads shattered into pieces with a crisp and sweet sound. Its fragments scattered everywhere, slightly fluorescing.

But this seemingly flickering light was getting more and more vigorous, and the golden beads turned from one into two, from two into four.

The tip of the spear was engulfed in blazing flames, and when it touched the golden beads, they quickly ignited. These bothersome Golden Glass Beads created by Changming were quickly submerged in a sea of flames, and could no longer be seen.

Such insignificant skills, yet he dared enter the Nine Layers of the Abyss; could it be that he has no idea how to write the ‘death’ character?

To have no idea how to write the ‘death’ character: tired of life.

Zhang Mu pressed the tip of his spear forward, using only half of his spiritual power, and quickly forced the Golden Glass Beads into a corner, giving Changming no chance to retreat or strike back.

Only to die obediently.

Xu Jingxian started scolding him at the moment he left her and went to Zhang Mu alone.

Scolding him for deceiving her, for bringing her to the Nine Layers of the Abyss.

Scolding him for being unreliable, for stirring up troubles all the time.

Scolding him for being unmanly, for ditching her at the most crucial moments.

She was cursing and killing them left and right.

Treating all the guards who attacked her as if they were Changming.

At the banquet tonight, Zhang Mu who was standing by Bei Shu’s side was inconspicuous, but many people saw him fighting and knew that he was at least a high-level cultivator, which was more than enough to kill Changming. Xu Jingxian also thought that Changming was almost gone, and she had exactly “lost both the beauty and her possessions”. It was hard to say whether she could even retreat from the Seven Star Platform that night.

The feeling of regret turned into grief and murderous spirit, and the people around her could only see the purple thin silk swirling around freely and a lithe and graceful figure of a young woman dancing the most touching dance in the world.

Only the guards of the Seven Star Platform could feel that Xu Jingxian’s seemingly flexible thin silk became a sharp murderous blade when it fell on them. With one strike, it cut through their flesh, and they started bleeding unceasingly.
