"If I steal the Lingxi Sword tonight, no one will see it at tomorrow's Sword Seizing Tournament. Won't that make King Yan look bad?" Zhang Tianhe said with a sudden burst of conscience.
Ye Yang smirked and agreed, then reached into his Cosmic Bag and pulled out a rusty Iron Sword, saying, "If you feel guilty, you can replace the Lingxi Sword with this one."
Zhang Tianhe's eyes widened in surprise. "Where did this Divine Weapon come from?"
"When we came here, didn't we pass by an ancient battlefield? I pulled this sword out from a pile of Remains..."
"This... how can this pass for the Lingxi Sword?"
"Changing its appearance is not difficult."
Ye Yang smiled confidently, suddenly shaking his right arm. The pure Fire God Fragment True Qi condensed into Starlight Power and flowed into the Iron Sword. With exquisite Fire God Power, he began to reshape the sword. Under the purifying flames, the rust melted away completely. The Blade trembled and emitted a low hum as Ye Yang closed his eyes, fully focused on reforging the sword.
In just a moment, the Iron Sword transformed dramatically, shining brilliantly with golden flames flickering along the Blade. Even the sword body was refined and reshaped by Ye Yang, now adorned with intricate patterns that clearly marked it as an extraordinary Divine Weapon!
Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei watched in astonishment and couldn't help but exclaim, "Young Master’s understanding of the Flame Principle has reached an unparalleled level..."
Ye Yang smiled and held up the Iron Sword. "I've seen the appearance of the Lingxi Sword in Weapon Classification; it should look something like this without much deviation. Moreover, I've infused Starlight Power into this sword using Refining Technique. It will emit energy for a day and night, but after that, once the True Qi is exhausted, it will still be just a piece of scrap metal!"
Zhang Tianhe chuckled. "That's perfect! This time, we'll make King Yan not only lose his daughter but also that legendary Divine Weapon!"
Ye Yang nodded and cautioned, "Tianhe, you must be careful. The Lingxi Sword is a Divine Weapon that King Yan acquired with great effort; he will definitely value it highly. There will be many powerful guardians around it, including Starry Sky Level experts. Don't act recklessly—if you can't steal the sword, just retreat without any mishaps!"
Zhang Tianhe patted Ye Yang's shoulder. "Don't worry; I'll be cautious. You need to be careful too. Princess Yan Yao is said to be under soft confinement in the palace with many experts guarding her to prevent anyone from approaching. You mustn't be careless when you go to find Yan Yao!"
"Understood..."
Ye Yang grinned widely. "It's been a while since I've done something sneaky like this. Are you excited, Tianhe?"
Zhang Tianhe rubbed his hands together and laughed heartily. "My Beast God Bloodline is already boiling! Just wait and see; this time I'm going to bring the Lingxi Sword back to Qi State and help us expand our territory!"
"Tonight at midnight, we will take action!"
"Alright!"
...
Thus, while staying in the palace to recover, at dinner time, King Yan specifically ordered the soldiers to bring fine wine and meat. Ye Yang and the others naturally enjoyed a hearty meal, as only after eating well could they have enough True Qi to withstand the extreme cold of Yan Country. Moreover, Ye Yang and Zhang Tianhe could hardly sit still; if it weren't for Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei's persistent persuasion, those two would probably have acted before nightfall, being extremely anxious.
As night fell and the cold wind howled, they endured until late into the night. When the clock struck midnight, Ye Yang and Zhang Tianhe simultaneously opened their eyes from their meditation. The unique calmness and alertness of Starry Sky Experts were evident in their eyes. Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun held their blades and said, "Young Master, do you really not want us to accompany you?"
"No need. You stay here and wait for tomorrow's Sword Seizing Tournament!"
"Understood, Young Master!"
Ye Yang and Zhang Tianhe exchanged smiles and swiftly left the room. In the next moment, they stood firmly in mid-air, trying to suppress their own aura as much as possible. The Lower Capital of Yan Country had long gathered many powerful figures from across the land; Starry Sky Experts were not limited to just the two of them. Countless individuals coveted Yan Yao and the Lingxi Sword. In this dark night, who knows how many pairs of eyes were watching the sky? If their energy waves became too strong, it would surely attract the attention of other Starry Sky Experts.
The Lingxi Sword was housed in the Sword Hiding Tower, which stood majestically at the center of the city. The tower was brightly lit at its peak, with hundreds of guards tightly guarding it. If Zhang Tianhe wanted to succeed, he would likely have to go through considerable trouble. For Ye Yang, it would be even more difficult. From what he learned from the guards, Princess Yan Yao was under house arrest in the Pearl Pavilion, adjacent to King Yan's palace, which gathered the strongest experts in Yan Country. What Ye Yang needed to do was break through these experts' defenses to find Yan Yao.
"Whoosh!"
Zhang Tianhe flew off into the night, creating a faint ripple of energy in the air.
Ye Yang frowned; Zhang Tianhe still couldn't perfectly control his Beast God power. It was no wonder—the Martial Arts Manual of Beast God Valley and True Qi were originally fierce and domineering, surging like a great river rather than condensing into a gentle stream. That Zhang Tianhe could achieve this level was already quite impressive.
Suppressing his aura, Ye Yang took a deep breath and floated toward a distant palace building. He seemed like a drifting leaf in mid-air—silent and perfectly blending with nature—completely undetectable. The Fire God Fragment True Qi within him remained as calm as an ancient well, causing no ripples and merely providing energy for flight.
...
As he floated through the air, Ye Yang's eyes gleamed like lightning as he looked down at the scene below. King Yan was hosting guests; in front of him was a group of beautifully dressed palace maids dancing gracefully. It was cruel that in such frigid weather, those maids wore so little that they turned pale from the cold. Yet King Yan remained oblivious, continuing to drink and enjoy himself.
Beneath King Yan sat a group of royal nobles, among them Wei Young Master Changlin, who was already drunk with flushed cheeks, laughing heartily while embracing a nearby maid.
"Cut!"
Ye Yang slightly raised the corner of his mouth, his gaze continuing to move northward. A group of guards was patrolling, and directly to the north, in a brightly lit pavilion, several maidens were sweeping the fallen plum blossom petals off the snow with bamboo branches, intending to use the melted snow for brewing plum blossom wine.
...
"Well, Yan Yao should be living here, right?"
Ye Yang thought to himself, his feet swiftly turning as he gracefully landed on the highest Pavilion roof, silent as if a snowflake had fallen.
In the distance, under the candlelight, a girl clad in a snow-colored fur cloak sat in the hall, brewing tea by the Furnace. A hint of sorrow was present on her delicate face, yet everything appeared so tranquil. This was none other than Yan Yao!
"Yan Yao is indeed here..."
Ye Yang's gaze turned cold as he prepared to act. However, at that moment, a sudden gust of wind howled, and an extremely strong wave of energy rippled through the air. Besides Ye Yang, there were others eyeing Yan Yao—more than one person had arrived!
Snowflakes drifted down as several dark figures silently swept past the Rockery and landed on the snow-covered ground, leaving shallow footprints in the snow. Clearly, these individuals were formidable experts!
