Xuan Ye's expression was solemn and holy. He raised the sword high in the air and chanted, "You have betrayed the glory of God. I will take back your life. You have betrayed the dignity of God. I will take back your soul. You have betrayed the faith of God. I will take back your right to live. The power of God! Rise up! The great God will use my hand to punish those who blaspheme against God. – Judgment of God. " This was the most powerful spell among all the level eight light spells. Even with Xuan Ye's power, he needed the help of the sword and 12 elite priests to unleash its full power.

A huge pillar of light suddenly erupted with Xuan Ye at the center, rising straight into the sky. The sunlight in the sky suddenly disappeared, and in its place was a huge cloud of light, a huge cloud of light that flickered with lightning.

Xuan Ye stood proudly in the middle of the white hexagram. He pointed the sword forward, and the glowing cloud in the sky immediately released a huge white lightning bolt. With a loud bang, the 500 bandits charging towards Xuan Ye, along with their horses, all turned into specks of light and disappeared. There were no traces left on the ground, as if they did not belong to this world.

The lightning bolt kept falling, making a rumbling sound. The Judgment of God only worked on living beings. Under Xuan Ye's control, all 2000 bandits of the Prairie Wolves were turned into specks of light in an instant. The holy aura filled the oasis, and the clear lake water became even more crystal clear.

When the chief realized what had happened, he was shocked to find that Xuan Ye and his group had already disappeared. The glowing cloud in the sky slowly disappeared. All the Yalian people were shocked by Xuan Ye's miraculous performance. Many of them knelt on the ground and kept praying. The glowing cloud that was filled with terrifying power finally disappeared, and the sunlight once again shone on the land. The Prairie Wolves that had dominated the Yalian people for many years had finally disappeared in the hands of Dumb and Cardinal Xuan Ye.

After killing all the bandits, Xuan Ye was afraid of being caught, so he quietly left with his men. Right now, he just wanted to find his daughter and Dumb as soon as possible, and bring Hades King's Sword and Xuanyue back to the Holy Hall.

While walking, Xuan Ye mumbled to himself, "Did I make too much of a fuss just now? Using the Judgment of God against 2000 bandits seems a bit too much, and it even wasted a lot of my mana."

An elite priest flattered, "How could that be? Cardinal's power is through the heavens. This is the only way to let those bandits know what the power of God is."

Xuan Ye's face sank and he said, "Alright, let's hurry up. If I'm not wrong, Yue Yue should have arrived at the Stellar Mountain's territory by now. I hope they don't get involved with that old guy Tiangang Kensei, I don't want to have anything to do with him. "He was still wary of the head of the 4 Sword Saints. Pope once told him that if there was anyone that could threaten the Holy Hall, it would be the 4 Sword Saints working together.

Xuan Ye was right. Dumb, Xuanyue, and the Yanshi Brothers had already entered the Heaven Star Mountain Range.

"The Heaven Star Mountain Range is the largest mountain range in the continent. It's made up of hundreds of mountains of different heights. The area it covers is even bigger than the entire Holy Hall. Because most of the mountains are very steep, it's not suitable for normal people to live here. That's why the Heaven Star Mountain Range is so sparsely populated. The advantage of the sparse population is that the environment here is comparable to the Elven Forest. Everything is natural, and there are basically no signs of human activity. The Heaven Star Mountain Range is named after its main peak, the Heaven Star Mountain. The Heaven Star Mountain Range is more than 6000 meters high. It's the tallest of the mountains, but it's also the smoothest. The Tiangang School was built on this mountain. "Yanshi sighed as he looked at the green mountains in front of him. These were all things that Xi Wen had taught them when he had been teaching them martial arts in the Puyan Tribe. The few mountains that could be seen were all steep as if they were chiseled with knives and axes. The rock walls were covered with all kinds of green plants.

Dumb sighed, "What a magnificent mountain! It's really hard to pass through here. I'm afraid we'll have to spend a lot of effort. "

Yanshi nodded, "Yeah! These mountains are too steep. We can only go through the gullies. Just taking a detour will take a lot of detours. That's why I suggested going through the Holy Hall. "

Among the four of them, the one who was the most fearless was Xuanyue. These mountains were nothing to her. No matter how difficult it was, they wouldn't ask her to climb them by herself. For the past two days, she and Dumb had been in a strange atmosphere. Dumb didn't express anything, but Xuanyue could see his concern and … So, she didn't force Dumb. The faint sweetness from their interaction made her feel very happy.

Yan Li looked at the three horses beside the four of them and said regretfully, "It's a pity that we can't bring these horses over."

Dumby smiled and said, "Then let them go. There are lush plants everywhere, so they won't starve."

Yanshi said, "Let's go. Anyway, Yue still has a lot of food on her. It should be enough for us to eat before we find the Tiangang Sect." After getting along these days, Yanshi and Yan Li both loved the beautiful Xuanyue very much. They had already regarded her as a younger sister. If she hadn't tried her best to use the power of the Phoenix Blood that day, the two brothers would have died under the joint attack of the Wolves of the Grassland. Because the four of them were close, the secret that Xuanyue's Phoenix Blood could store food was naturally told to them. Yanshi was right. So far, the Phoenix Blood still had nearly 700 steamed buns, which was enough for them to eat.

Xuan Yue walked to Dumby's back and jumped hard. She wrapped her arms around Dumby's neck and hung on Dumby's body. She giggled and said, "Let's go. Dai Dai, you have to carry me."

Dumb gave a wry smile. He helplessly hooked Xuanyue's legs and put her on his back. Fortunately, his Tiangang Sword and Black Iron Bow were stored in the Dragon God's Blood. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to support so much weight. Now his power had been completely restored. Due to the help of the spirit's spring and the previous life and death struggle, Dumb's power had increased slightly. His True Qi was thicker than before, and the liquid energy in his Dantian had increased a lot.

Yanshi laughed and said, "Let's go. Yan Li, you use the axe to open the way in front."

Yan Li snorted helplessly and said with dissatisfaction, "Why am I always the one who gets hurt."

Xuanyue smiled, "Who asked your axe to be so powerful? Big brother Yanshi needs to find the way, and Dumb needs to carry me. The one to open the way is of course you. Do you have anything to say? "

Yan Li laughed and said, "The three of us have jobs. Little sister Xuanyue, what are you doing?"

Xuanyue said confidently, "Me? My job is the heaviest. I have to bring food for you. Also, I have to identify the direction. Do you want to get lost? Let's go, Big Brother Yan Li, who is not even as tall as me. "

Yan Li was speechless. He could only take out his axe and gloomily cut through the thorns in front. Yanshi followed behind him, constantly identifying the terrain. Dumb carried Xuanyue and walked at the back. Xuanyue's weight was nothing to him. He only needed to follow Yanshi, which was relatively easy.

Dumb and the other two were martial arts experts. Although the road was hard to walk, it did not affect them too much. After half a day, they had already passed through three tall mountains and entered the Tian Gang Mountain Range.

The weather in the Tian Gang Mountain Range was pleasant. Although the weather was extremely hot, the air in the mountain range was very fresh. There were also some tall plants to shade them. It was much more comfortable to walk than on the grassland. Occasionally, one or two small beasts would run past them, bringing some fun to the four of them. Yan Li wanted to catch a small beast to change his taste a few times, but he was stopped by Xuanyue. Her reason was that the beasts were living well, why should he kill them to eat them? Under her soft and gentle attack, Yan Li could only give up.

The sound of flowing water suddenly came. The gurgling sound was like a silver bell. It was like heavenly music that cleansed the hearts of the four people. Although they had not seen it, they were already deeply intoxicated. They ran towards the direction of the water almost at the same time.

What they saw was a clear stream. The stream water seeped out from the crevice of a tall mountain and converged into a small pool. The clear spring water in the pool trickled down, nourishing the surrounding creatures along the terrain.

"Great, I want to take a bath." Xuanyue jumped down from Dumb's back and rushed towards the pool. With a splash, she had already jumped into the knee-deep clear water. The ice-cold spring water nourished her body. The fatigue of the past few days seemed to have disappeared in an instant. She continuously stirred the spring water in the jar and let out a moving laugh.

Yanshi coughed and pulled Yan Li to turn around with his back facing the pool. It turned out that after Xuanyue's white magician robe was soaked in the spring water, it revealed her exquisite curves. A sixteen-year-old girl had already developed to a certain extent. In addition, Xuanyue's appearance was so moving. Even the stupidest person would be mesmerized by the beautiful scenery at this moment.

Dumb stared blankly at the cheerful Xuanyue in the pool. For a moment, he was actually dumbfounded. In his eyes, Xuanyue was like a happy angel. It was so touching.

Xuanyue also realized her mistake. She exclaimed and hurriedly squatted in the jar of water. Her pretty face turned red. She angrily said to Dumb, "What are you looking at? You're so annoying. Turn around. "

Dumb woke up from his daze. He responded and hurriedly turned to the side. Yan Li secretly laughed and said, "Leave this place to Yue. Let's go down and drink some water."

Yanshi smiled bitterly. "Then wouldn't we have to drink Yue's bath water?"

Dumb scratched his head and said, "I, I'll go down first." He felt waves of hot blood rushing to his head. Xuanyue's appearance just now was too tempting. That faintly discernible white skin, that exquisite and delicate body. He didn't dare to think about it anymore. There seemed to be a hot stream flowing out of his nose. Some parts of his body unconsciously changed. He was so scared that he hurriedly ran to a lower position downstream. He continuously washed his face with the cold spring water to wake himself up.

The sound of flowing water came from the pool. Obviously, it was Xuanyue happily washing her delicate body. For someone like her who loved cleanliness, not bathing for a few days was definitely more uncomfortable than being killed. It was not easy to find such an opportunity. Naturally, she wanted to bathe for a while.

Yanshi and Yan Li sat beside Dumb. The two casually washed in the spring water and rested comfortably.

"Dumb, what did you see just now! I think I saw your nose bleeding. Wasn't it too exciting? Luckily I didn't look. Otherwise, I would have a needle eye. "Yan Li smirked and poked Dumb's body.

"Ah! I, I didn't see anything. "Dumb explained clumsily. The cold spring water did not reduce the heat in Dumb's chest. Until now, he still couldn't calm down.

Yanshi smiled and said, "Ah Li, don't tease Dumb. Dumb, it doesn't matter. Anyway, you and Yue are so close. You will see it sooner or later. Hey, why is your face red? Are you not feeling well? Tell us secretly. Wasn't the scene just now very touching? "

Dumb wished there was a hole for him to hide in. He didn't expect that even Yanshi would make fun of him. He stammered, "I, I really didn't see anything. Don't talk nonsense. There's nothing going on between me and Yue. "Actually, in the depths of Dumb's heart, Xuanyue's shadow had been deeply imprinted. Xuanyue's beauty, liveliness, and kindness had long touched Dumb's heart. He had never revealed his feelings. Although it had something to do with his dullness, more importantly, Xuanyue's identity was too different from his. How could a cardinal's daughter be compatible with a thief like him? Moreover, there was also a girl who wanted to be his fiancée when he was young. Dumb didn't dare to show his feelings. He kept telling himself that he was compatible with a girl who had the same background as him. It was impossible for him to be with Yue.

Yan Li smiled and said, "There's nothing going on? Yue Yue is always by your side, even a fool can see the relationship between the two of you. "

Dumb's body trembled. He shook his head hard to get rid of the thought of Xuanyue liking him. He said in a low voice, "Brothers, don't make fun of me anymore. I want to rest for a while. "After saying that, he lay on the grass and closed his eyes to take a nap.

Seeing that Dumb was a little depressed, the Yanshi Brothers looked at each other. They didn't understand why he was like this, so they stopped teasing him.

After a while, Xuanyue's scream suddenly came from the pool above. Dumby, who had been lying down, immediately jumped up as if by reflex, and rushed towards the pool with an anxious look on his face.

Yan Li wanted to follow and see what happened, but he was stopped by Yanshi. "Do you want your nose to bleed too? Nothing big would happen here. Dumby would be able to handle it. Don't look at what you shouldn't look at! "

Yan Li laughed and said, "Boss, you're so thoughtful."

At this time, Dumby had already leaped onto the pool. He leaped high and landed right on top of the pool. But when he saw the "beautiful scenery" in front of him, he couldn't control his body and fell into the water with a plop. Bright red blood kept flowing out of his nose, and the water in the pool was dyed red.

As it turned out, when Dumby arrived at the pool, what he saw was Xuan Yue, who was completely naked and in a wonderful position. Because she hadn't bathed for a few days, Xuanyue really wanted to get rid of the filth on her body. She also believed that Dumb and the other two would definitely not peek at her. So she boldly took off the restraints on her body and happily bathed. The exclamation just now was because a small white fish had suddenly bumped into her in the water bomb, and that was why she let out that exclamation. But she didn't expect that her scream would attract Dumb. She knew that she had been seen naked. She immediately squatted into the pool in embarrassment and protected the "vital parts" of her body.

Dumb climbed out of the water and said with his eyes closed, "Yue, Yue, how are you?"

Xuanyue lowered her head and said with a trembling voice, "You, you leave quickly. I'm fine. You … "

Hearing that Xuanyue was fine, Dumb turned around and ran as if he was running for his life. But he forgot that when he fell into the pool, his direction had already changed. His eyes were closed, so when he turned around, he ran in the direction of Xuanyue.

In the midst of Xuanyue's scream, Dumb bumped into her body and both of them fell into the pool. In a panic, Dumb felt that he was holding a ball of softness in his hand. He was shocked and wanted to shout, but he drank a mouthful of cold spring water, choking him and coughing.

Xuan Yue was embarrassed. What Dumby was grabbing onto was her … She pushed Dumby to the side and said angrily, "You, what are you doing?"

Dumb opened his eyes and struggled to get up from the pool. He saw Xuanyue close at hand and shouted, "You, what are you doing?" He was full of panic. His body was tripped by a stone by the side of the pool, and he fell into the thorny bushes. There were more than a dozen cuts on his body. But now he couldn't care less about the pain. He almost rolled and crawled back to Yanshi and Yan Li. His sorry state scared the two of them.

"Brother, what's going on? How did you end up like this? What happened? "Yan Li asked with concern.

Dumb kept gasping. His heartbeat could be heard clearly. His whole body was slightly convulsing, and the soft touch in his hand constantly shocked his heart. Since he was a child, nothing had ever made him so uneasy like now.

Yanshi winked at Yan Li, indicating that he should not ask anymore. He pointed at Dumb's bleeding nose and smiled slightly.

Dumb ran away. Xuanyue felt that her whole body was numb and couldn't move. It took a long time for her to recover. When Dumby grabbed her just now … the heat that came from his palm made her whole body sore and weak. She barely crawled back to the shore. She was no longer in the mood to wash. She summoned a clean dress from the Phoenix Blood and hurriedly put it on.

Xuanyue put on her clothes and walked towards Dumb and the Yanshi Brothers in a daze. The three people's eyes fell on her at the same time. Xuan Yue's long blue hair draped over her shoulders. Sparkling and translucent water droplets occasionally dripped down, making her look like a lotus flower emerging from the water. Her white dress set off her holiness, giving off an inviolable feeling. However, her originally bright eyes were now filled with a vacant look.

Seeing Xuanyue walk over, Dumb's face was red. He stuttered, "Yue, Yue, I, I didn't see anything." Anyone could see that he was lying from his stuttering look.

Xuanyue looked at Dumb. Her chest was heaving up and down. Suddenly, she squatted on the ground and burst into tears.

Dumby jumped in fright, and helplessly looked at Rock and Rock Force for help. However, the two brothers looked to the side with tacit understanding. Neither of them responded, looking as if they were saying that Dumby should deal with the trouble he caused himself.

Looking at Xuanyue's sad cry, Dumb couldn't bear it. He helplessly moved to her side and whispered, "Yue, hit me, scold me. It's all my fault. Don't cry."

Xuan Yue raised her head and looked at Dumby's flushed face and the torn clothes on his body. Her heart couldn't help but soften. She choked and said, "You, how can you look at my body and touch me …"

Dumb smiled bitterly, "I, I really didn't mean it."

Xuanyue wiped the tears on her face. She snorted and said, "I don't care. Anyway, you have to pay for bullying me."

Seeing that she stopped crying, Dumb immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He hurriedly said, "I'll pay, I'll pay." Anyway, he owed her a lot. As the saying goes, when you have too many debts, you don't need to worry. Moreover, apart from himself, he really had nothing to pay for Xuanyue.

Xuanyue stood up angrily. Looking at the Yanshi Brothers who were laughing, she said, "What are you laughing at? What's so funny? If you laugh again, I'll let you all go hungry. "

Yanshi and Yan Li quickly stopped laughing. Yanshi held back and said, "No, we won't laugh anymore."

In fact, Xuanyue didn't blame Dumb for assaulting her. She only cried because she was shy. Thinking of that shameful feeling, her heart was pounding. She looked at Dumb with even more strange eyes.

"Let's go. We should be on our way. Do you want to rest all the time?" Xuanyue said discontentedly.

Yan Li hurriedly stood up and ran with his axe. "I'll lead the way first." Yanshi did the same. He said that he would go check the terrain and ran with Yan Li.

Dumb murmured, "Yue, I, do I still carry you?"

Xuanyue said angrily, "Of course. It's such a difficult road. Do you want to leave me behind?"

"Oh." Dumb carefully squatted beside Xuanyue. Xuanyue bit her lips and hooked her arms around Dumb's neck and leaned on his back. The contact made the two of them feel like they were electrocuted. Their bodies stiffened at the same time. Xuanyue felt the heat and intense heartbeat on Dumb's back. On the other hand, Dumb felt the temptation of Xuanyue's cold and soft body and the water droplets dripping from her hair. The two of them stayed in this stalemate for more than ten seconds. Xuanyue spoke first, "Let's go." Her voice was very soft and had a hint of shyness.

Dumb finally reacted. He hurriedly got rid of all distracting thoughts. He hooked Xuanyue's legs and chased in the direction where Yanshi and Yan Li disappeared.

When the moon replaced the sun and brought a glimmer of light to the dark and silent land, the four of them had already entered the depths of the Tiangang Mountain Range.

"Where is this Tiangang School?" Xuanyue said with some dissatisfaction. "We've been walking for half a day and there's still no sign of it. Big Brother Yanshi, you said that the Tiangang Mountain is the highest mountain in the Tiangang Mountain Range. But why do I see that all the mountains here are so high? I can't tell which one is the Tiangang Mountain. How are we going to find it? "

"It's also my first time here. How would I know?" Yanshi said with a wry smile. "What I said was what I heard from Teacher Xi Wen. However, this mountain range is too big, and it's surrounded by mountains. Our line of sight is blocked, so it's normal that we can't find the main peak, the Tiangang Mountain. Let's find a place to rest for the night and continue our search tomorrow. "

In fact, they didn't know that there were several secret mountain roads built by Tiangang School in the Tiangang Mountain Range. They could quickly enter the Tiangang Mountain through these mountain roads. This was also a secret of the Tiangang School. Those who weren't disciples of the school wouldn't know about it.

Xuanyue pouted and said, "Alright, let's rest first. It's quite hot in the day. Why is it a little cold at night? " Because they had already entered the mountain range, the water vapor in the mountains was thick. Moreover, the terrain was high. It didn't feel much during the day, but at night, they would naturally be soaked in the cold. Dumb and the other two had been practicing martial arts all year round. Their bodies were so strong that they didn't feel anything, but Xuanyue couldn't stand it.

Dumb quickly took off his coat and put it on Xuanyue. His magician's robe had already been damaged when he was with the Yalian people. Now, he was wearing the plain cotton clothes he had brought from Stone Town. Xuanyue looked at Dumb shyly. She felt sweet in her heart.

Yanshi said, "It's cold in the mountains. It'll be hard to endure at night. How about this? Let's find an empty space and make a fire. It'll be warmer. We'll make do for one night. No matter what, we have to find Mount Tiangang tomorrow. "

Yan Li frowned and said, "Big Brother, there are trees everywhere in the mountains. If we burn the mountains, Tiangang School will fight us to the death!"

Yanshi smiled and said, "Don't worry, it'll be fine. We just need to clear a small empty space and make a fire in the middle of it. Also, it's September now. The air in the mountains is moist. It won't be easy to catch fire. "

Dumb said, "Then let's make a fire. I'll be in charge of it."

After a while, the three of them found a lot of firewood and piled them together on an open space on a small hill. Dumby used an ordinary fire spell to dry the firewood and then set it on fire. The fire brought warmth and light to everyone. The four of them sat around the fire. Their faces were red from the light of the fire, and they felt warm both physically and mentally. They baked the steamed buns that Xuanyue took out over the fire to appease their hunger. Hot steamed buns were better than cold ones. Other than Xuanyue, the three ate with relish.

"Who's so bold to light a fire in the mountains?" A loud voice suddenly came from the forest.

The four were shocked and picked up their weapons. After the ordeal with the elves and the Yalian people, they were always on guard. Xuanyue's Angelic Staff flickered with white light. She was ready to buff Dumb and the others with light magic at any time.

A black shadow leaped out with a whoosh and landed not far away from the four of them. The person was about 20 years old and 1.8 meters tall. He had thick eyebrows and tiger-like eyes. His nose was straight and his mouth was square. He looked heroic. He carried a broadsword on his back and glared at the four. "Where did you come from? How dare you light a fire in the mountains. Don't you know it's dangerous?"

Looking at the other party's attire, Rock knew that he was from the Heavenly Dipper Sword Faction. He couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Brother, you must be from the Heavenly Dipper Sword Faction, right? We were going to Tiangang Mountain to visit Teacher Xi Wen, but we got lost after entering the mountains. It's cold at night, so we came up with this plan. Look, we've cleared away the surrounding vegetation. It won't cause a fire. "

The young man's expression changed when he heard Yanshi call Xi Wen teacher. His anger disappeared. He asked in confusion, "Why do you want to see the Sect Master?" This person was Xi Wen's disciple.

"I'm Yanshi of the Puyan people. When I was young, I received guidance from Teacher Xi Wen. I'm going to the Sunset Empire, so I'm going to visit him when we pass by Tiangang Mountain. I haven't seen him for many years. I wonder if Teacher Xi Wen is doing well? From what you just said, Teacher Xi Wen has already become the Sect Master of Tiangang School. Could it be that Tiangang Kensei … "

The young man smiled and said, "Don't make wild guesses. Great Grandmaster is very healthy. It's just that he's old and has been recuperating in the sword sect. That's why he passed the position of Sect Master to Grandmaster. Since you know Grandmaster, then come with me. I'm Liao Yi, a fourth generation disciple. I'll bring you to see him. You can't light a fire in the mountains! The mountain winds are very strong at night. Once the fire is blown into the mountains, it'll cause a forest fire. It'll be terrible. "

The few of them quickly put out the fire. Dumb said, "I'm really sorry. It's just that the weather is too cold. That's why we came up with this plan. Is Tiangang Mountain far from here? "

Liao Yi smiled and said, "It's not far. I'm here to patrol the mountain. I'm afraid I'll meet people like you who dare to light a fire in the mountains. From here, we'll reach the main peak of Tiangang Mountain after passing through two mountains. However, the main peak is very high above sea level. I'm afraid we'll have to wait until dawn to reach the top. "

Dumb was afraid that Xuanyue's body couldn't take it. Although Xuanyue didn't need to climb the mountain by herself, how could he be at ease when it was so cold at night? He quickly said, "Big brother, we've been traveling for a day. We're all very tired. Let's rest for the night and continue tomorrow morning! The night dew is very cold. I'm afraid my body can't take it. "

Hearing Dumb's words, Liao Yi couldn't help but look down on him. He said proudly, "We're all martial artists. This little bit of cold is nothing. If we hurry, we might be able to reach the top before dawn. It's not too late to rest then."

With Xuanyue's intelligence, she naturally knew what Liao Yi was thinking. She snorted and said to Dumb, "Let's go now. What's there to rest for? Do you think we care about climbing the mountain?" Because the extinguishing of the fire had affected everyone's vision, Liao Yi couldn't see Xuanyue's face clearly. He could tell that Xuanyue's words were directed at him. He was shocked and secretly cursed himself for having such thoughts. If his master knew about it, he would definitely be scolded. He didn't refute and just waited for Dumb's reply with a smile.

Dumb walked to Xuanyue and whispered, "Yue, you'll feel cold if you travel at night."
