The Way of The Dao

"Hahaha! where are you going?"

"Look at him running!"

"The Immortal Great Master running away!"

Laughter and mock-filled laughter could be heard in the distance from a numerous group of people flying on their swords and chasing an old man, who was flying on his own sword as well, but with a balance that at any moment he might fall off it.

Fu Yishuang had his breath at the top of his lungs, feeling that at any moment he might faint. But when he saw the Sect and the others there, his decadent fighting spirit was renewed again and he flew faster.

"Master!" He Qianye called out in worry and went out to meet the old man. The others also did not hesitate and followed He Qianye, wanting to help Fu Yishuang. Chen Zeiwei also moved and Chen Qiande ordered his warriors to get ready to fight at any moment.

"Take!" Fu Yishuang quickly took out several things from his storage ring, throwing it to He Qianye and Chen Zeiwei.

These were pills and a few more flashy items, such as daggers and swords, among other things that were passed to the other sect members.

The large group chasing Fu Yishuang stopped once they got close, throwing mocking, superior, arrogant and more looks at everyone with Fu Yishuang.

"I never thought you would risk your life just to steal the immortal pills for your treasured disciples." A man in a flashy intense red robe at the front of the group spoke sneeringly as he saw that Fu Yishuang had given the things to the others. The other people beside him let out laughter, glaring at everyone on the other side.

Fu Yishuang breathed heavily for a few more seconds before he began to steady himself, glaring hatefully at those who were chasing him and said, "This is the least I can do to apologize to them. Even if I sacrifice myself, I will take as many as I can with me and let them survive." His breathing was still labored, but his mind was clear.

Even though the former Sect Master had made all those arrangements with him and everyone else, in the end, these young people were his disciples whom he himself had cared for and taught, therefore, he wanted to apologize to them for not doing something before. Although they forgave him because they were aware that he was also controlled, in the end, he was also the victim and they did not blame him.

But Fu Yishuang felt that he owed more to these disciples of his. Therefore, he risked his life to get the pills that would allow his disciples to become stronger and advance to the next stage.

Fu Yishuang hoped that Chen Zeiwei would be able to enter the Nascent Soul realm...

"Master, these pills..." He Qianye looked at Fu Yishuang in confusion when she saw some pills in her hand.

"Take them in and make progress in your cultivation!" Fu Yishuang instructed them to take them at once. His gaze was mainly directed at Chen Zeiwei.

These pills could give them increased power for a while, some might even help them advance to the next stage!

Chen Zeiwei hesitated to take it, knowing that she could become stronger, but she would first have to face the tribulation of the heavens to advance.

"Daughter, we will protect you, even if we die trying." Chen Qiande stepped forward, leading the warriors he had brought with him.

Fu Yishuang nodded and clenched the sword grip in his hand, glaring defiantly at the enemies of the other sect. The enemies had strength from the Chi Gathering Stage to the Golden Core Stage, while the leader was the only one who was half a step away from the Nascent Soul Stage.

If Chen Zeiwei could advance, then she could be on par with the leader of the enemies and they could equalize the scales, they could even win!

"Even if she could take it, the brat would still have to face the tribulation of heaven, and if she is disturbed, she would die easily." The enemy leader looked sneeringly at Fu Yishuang and Chen Zeiwei, not bothering to fight again for the things they had stolen from them.

It was true, if anyone wanted to face the tribulations of the heavens, they had to do it alone and protected, with no one to interfere. If an enemy appeared, it was very likely that person would be distracted and die from the heavenly tribulations.

Heavenly tribulation was not something just anyone could face.

"You'll have to kill me first before you lay a finger on my daughter." However, Chen Qiande's powerful and piercing voice was heard throughout the place as he took another step forward, covering Chen Zeiwei as he secured the sword in his hand. The Chen family warriors also got into position, some trembling with nervousness and fear.

"Father..." Chen Zeiwei looked worriedly at her father.

"Daughter, this is your time to shine and become stronger." Chen Qiande spoke loudly and firmly, not wanting to worry his daughter. Then, his expression turned smiling and proudly said, "I am proud that you have become so strong and powerful, I am even sure that you can become stronger in the future. So, once you have enough power, you can fulfill a request to this old father of yours..."

Chen Zeiwei looked helplessly at her father, who seemed not to turn back.

"If you manage to find your sister, take care of her and protect her, and above all, tell her that I'm very sorry..." Chen Qiande swallowed slightly shakily, feeling that he couldn't stop his voice from trembling.

Chen Qiande knew that he was a bad father and that he would have no chance to remedy it. Therefore, he wanted his daughter not to make the same mistake as him about quitting and abandoning the family. Chen Qiande hoped that Chen Zeiwei would succeed in finding Qing Sha. He didn't care if he went to hell or lived in lamentation like a ghost, he just wanted his two daughters to be fine.

Chen Zeiwei's fist clenched shakily, feeling helpless that she could do nothing in this situation.

"Zeiwei, take it. Your father and I will protect you and won't let anyone bother you, even if we have to give our lives in return. That's the least I can do on my part." Fu Yishuang wiped the trace of blood from his mouth and nodded resolutely to Chen Zeiwei, standing at Chen Qiande's side and looking firmly at the enemies.

"Come on sister, you can do it, you'll be the one to lead us to victory!" He Qianye took Chen Zeiwei's hand and encouraged her.

"Yeah!"

"We trust you!"

Cheers of support were heard at once.

"I will protect you, my dear Zeiwei. I won't let anyone get close to you." Quo Qifan showed a proud pose, swinging his sword as he arrogantly looked at the enemies.

"Thank you all..." Chen Zeiwei ignored what Quo Qifan said, but still, she thanked everyone who supported her. She wasn't very confident right now, but she felt that she had to keep going and become stronger; that was the only way they could all survive and make it through.

Chen Zeiwei took the pill without hesitation. She walked a few feet away from them and sat down cross-legged.

"Desperation will only lead to destruction..." The striking red-robed leader of the enemies shook his head with a sneering expression upon seeing Chen Zeiwei's action. The others beside him also laughed full of mockery and disdain.

Several of them slowly approached, calmly swinging their swords as they looked with derision and disdain at all of them.

"It will take a while before you can face the divine tribulation, therefore, we must endure all that time..." Fu Yishuang said, making everyone brace themselves in their positions.

"Our Immortal Grandmaster needs our help!" A voice among the Chen family warriors spread intensely, causing everyone to breathe heavily and gripped their weapons tightly, "As proud warriors of the great Chen family, we must protect and fight for her! If we fall, then we must take at least two or three of them each!"

The Chen family warriors shouted fiercely, shedding their nervousness and fear, only wanting to fight for the young woman of the family they belonged to.

The other members belonging to the Thousand Swords Sect swung their swords fiercely, circulating their energies and displaying the amazing techniques they had studied for years.

Chen Qiande, Fu Yishuang, He Qianye, Quo Qifan and the others took their positions, glaring fiercely at the enemies that were closing in on them.

"Looks like the Burning Sun Sect can do whatever they want?"

However, a voice came from the farthest distance, startling everyone!

Another large group of people flying on their swords appeared from afar, following a man in an ostentatious golden robe who had announced their arrival.
