"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go!"

Senior Swordswoman snapped coldly, her voice filled with icy disdain and dissatisfaction.

"Yes." Xiao Yi nodded.

He took out two tokens from his hand, and with a flash of light, they disappeared into thin air, reappearing steadily before the Senior Swordswoman.

"Senior Swordswoman," Xiao Yi said in a deep voice, "these are the tokens from the Wind Shattering Hall and Asura Two Halls."

"There are a lot of Task Points inside."

"With these, Senior Swordswoman can exchange for the needed items in both halls."

Senior Swordswoman did not mince words, accepting them directly, and nodded, "Fine, get lost."

Xiao Yi nodded and turned away, pouting.

Leaving now, only to return later.

However, Senior Swordswoman, though a senior, is ultimately a woman.

Explaining to an angry woman is clearly unwise.

Thus, Xiao Yi made no further explanations, glanced at the Chengfeng Hall Master, cupped his hands, and flew away.

...

In the distance, Xiao Yi suddenly sighed.

To be expected, the Senior Swordswoman endured hardships to bring the people from the Eastern Domain here.

In this crisis-ridden Central Region, caution is paramount.

Having finally met him, he acted distant, truly making this senior feel upset.

Recalling the care he received in the Eastern Domain in years past, Xiao Yi was deeply moved.

"I’ll tread carefully from now on." Xiao Yi shook his head.

Swoosh... swoosh... swoosh...

Xiao Yi flew over a million miles and landed in the wilderness of a deep mountain.

He quickly set up a Prohibition Barrier around and hastily took off the Young Master’s clothes, changing back into a strong outfit, and donned the Ghost Mask.

Having done everything, Xiao Yi dispersed the surrounding Prohibition Barrier.

However, he did not hurry to continue his journey.

He sat cross-legged in the same spot.

He waited for nearly half a day.

Boom...

The Purple Flame Fire Wings spread, and he instantly flew away.

In full burst, the Purple Flame Fire Wings’ flying speed even surpassed his Controlling the air speed when stepping on the Purple Lightning Divine Sword.

...

Elsewhere, aboard the giant ship.

Bai Bingxue, Ye Ming, Lin Jin, and others hesitated as they looked at the Senior Swordswoman.

"Senior, you know Xiao Yi’s character; he’s not that kind of heartless person."

"Master, Junior Brother Xiao Yi perhaps inadvertently offended..."

Senior Swordswoman did not reply, focusing instead on writing something.

"Master, what are you writing?" Bai Bingxue asked in bewilderment.

"Nothing much." Senior Swordswoman smiled slyly.

A hint of pride flashed across her exquisite face.

Boom... Suddenly, a sound of a sky-breaking explosion came from a distance.

A figure engulfed in flames turned around and arrived.

It was none other than Xiao Yi.

A million miles is only about an hour’s journey for him.

Aboard the giant ship, in mid-air, Xiao Yi’s Purple Flame Fire Wings vanished, and he landed steadily on the ship.

"Senior Swordswoman." Xiao Yi bowed slightly.

His voice had already become low.

For someone of his powerful stature, altering his voice slightly is not difficult.

"Oh? You’ve come so quickly?" Senior Swordswoman was slightly surprised.

"Mm." Xiao Yi nodded deeply, "I just finished a competition on the other side of the Extreme East."

"Upon receiving Xiao Yi’s message, I learned that you and the others had arrived, so I hurried over."

A few days ago, Yi Xiao was participating in a competition among various major forces in the Extreme East, which was well-known.

The distance here from the Extreme East is not very far.

Xiao Yi originally came to this nearby region after leaving the Extreme East, and then hurried over to meet Senior Swordswoman and others.

In the high sky.

"Purple... Purple Flame Yi Xiao..." The surrounding Main Hall Masters couldn’t help but shiver.

In fact, moments ago, when they saw the fiery blaze approaching from afar, the amazing purple flames blazing, their suspicions from before were confirmed.

Half a day ago, when they heard the words ’Yi Xiao young one’, they already had their guesses.

Now, throughout the Central Region, mentioning Yi Xiao would surely make everyone immediately think of Purple Flame Yi Xiao.

Yet nobody expected that their suspicions would be proven true.

As the fiery figure descended from the sky, their hearts trembled, and they couldn’t help but swallow hard.

"Mm?" Xiao Yi slightly turned, scanning the surrounding Main Hall Masters in the high sky.

"You all are sensible, none of you ran away."

"Did you know about the situation here?" Senior Swordswoman asked.

"Yes." Xiao Yi cupped his hands and said, "Before coming, Xiao Yi told me everything."

"He said, if all these Main Hall Masters ran away when I arrived, then I should take care of it."

"Heh." Xiao Yi chuckled coldly, "I thought I’d have to give chase for a while..."

In the high sky, the gathered Main Hall Masters shivered again upon hearing this threatening utterance.

"Vice Hall Master Yi Xiao." Jiang Liuhuo, Xu Heyan, and others repeatedly cupped their hands.

"Hmph." Xiao Yi snorted coldly.

"Senior Swordswoman." Xiao Yi turned back to Senior Swordswoman and said, "I’ll deal with the matter here first."

"Go ahead." Senior Swordswoman nodded.

Swoosh...

Xiao Yi’s figure flashed, arriving before Chengfeng Hall Master and Hengtian Palace Master.

The Hengtian Palace Master had originally gone to this nearby region to review files.

But Xiao Yi disappeared for half a day, and naturally, he had already returned.

"These two should be Chengfeng Hall Master and Hengtian Palace Master." Xiao Yi cupped his hands.

"Purple Flame Yi Xiao." Chengfeng Hall Master and Hengtian Palace Master squinted nearly simultaneously.

In fact, this was their first time directly facing Yi Xiao.

And unsurprisingly, in their eyes, Yi Xiao and Xiao Yi appeared extremely similar.

Although they couldn’t see Yi Xiao’s appearance or sense his aura.

Yet still, they felt a sense of familiarity in their hearts, along with suspicion.

Their suspicion, already heavy, had grown even weightier.

But, glancing at the Senior Swordswoman below, they furrowed their brows tightly.

"Hengtian Palace Master."

At this point, Xiao Yi, in his deep voice, interrupted their thoughts.

"I heard Xiao Yi say you went to check your Wind Shattering Hall’s files, how was it?"

Despite his suspicions, Hengtian Palace Master nodded and took out a stack of files.

"This is the intelligence collected by the Main Hall after I ordered it back, gathered from various sub-palaces."

"Arrest warrants aren’t considered secret intelligence, so the Main Hall easily gathered and sent it to me."

Xiao Yi nodded, taking the stack of files.

Among the Ancient Eight Halls, regardless of which hall, each sub-palace under them possessed special Sub-Saint Artifacts for dispatching commands.

Capable of transmitting various documents and intelligence quickly.

Xiao Yi flipped through the files, glanced at them, and his eyes grew colder.

"Plundering the Medicine Venerate Hall for Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, leaving a trail of blood, resembling an Evil Cultivator."

"Heh." Xiao Yi coldly glanced at the gathered Main Hall Masters, "Six arrest warrants, all for the same reason."

Jiang Liuhuo quickly cupped his hands and said, "Vice Hall Master Yi Xiao, we have justified reasons to suspect they are Evil Cultivators."

"That Xiao Yi Vice Hall Master even protected them everywhere..."

Xiao Yi interrupted coldly, "In other words, you intend to teach Yi how to identify Evil Cultivators?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Liuhuo’s face changed, and he hurriedly replied, "I wouldn’t dare."

...

First update.
