"Quarter Movement, what a joke, it’s a desecration of my Half Movement. Change it quickly," Feng Xian said with dissatisfaction.

Bai Cangdong was content with his own Quarter Movement, constantly improving it, completely ignoring Feng Xian’s protests.

As the three delved deeper, the number of lightning demons in the ancient demon cave gradually increased. The entire cave was filled with green lightning, dazzling the eyes, and one could easily be struck by an arc of lightning that suddenly appeared from nowhere.

"Give me the Mo Dao." Feng Xian’s expression turned serious as large patches of lightning converged into a scorching light cloud, and countless lightning demons flew over.

Bai Cangdong returned the Mo Dao to Feng Xian. Feng Xian held a Mo Dao in each hand and charged towards the lightning demons with a mysterious gait, thrusting the swords from various impossible angles.

In a moment, a pair of Mo Dao had eliminated four lightning demons, leaving Bai Cangdong speechless.

"Strange, why weren’t you electrocuted by the lightning demons?" Bai Cangdong asked curiously.

Feng Xian was cleaning up the battlefield, picking up many life scales, and said proudly, "Good luck makes everything possible. Look, I killed four lightning demons, and each one dropped a life scale. This is proof of good luck."

Feng Xian was unwilling to explain, so Bai Cangdong could only watch him in action, hoping to figure out the secret.

In the end, Bai Cangdong didn’t understand why Feng Xian wasn’t electrocuted, but he unexpectedly discovered that his dual-sword technique was also very powerful. Bai Cangdong himself was also proficient in dual weapons, but compared to Feng Xian, he was far inferior. Feng Xian’s dual-sword technique was a genuine dual-sword martial skill, not a makeshift one like Bai Cangdong’s.

"Feng Xian’s dual-sword technique was once the best in Fenghua City," Feng Xian said.

"Too bad, such a powerful person gave up the path of nobility," Bai Cangdong sighed slightly.

"There’s nothing to regret. If Uncle Feng hadn’t given it up, he might have been killed by a baron-level undead long ago. There are so many viscount-level experts in the world, but how many can actually advance to baron?"

"What are you two talking about? Come and help me kill the lightning demons. Do you want me to do all the work?" Feng Xian, surrounded by several lightning demons, shouted loudly.

Bai Cangdong and Feng Xian exchanged a smile and charged forward together.

Clang!

After Bai Cangdong killed a lightning demon, a gauntlet emitting green lightning fell.

Gleaming Lightning Gauntlet (Left): One of the Gleaming Lightning Set, can add lightning power to the life force light emitted through the gauntlet.

"Gleaming Lightning Set gauntlet, you’re really lucky. You got this with such a low probability, less than one in ten thousand," Feng Xian said, wishing he could snatch the Gleaming Lightning Gauntlet from Bai Cangdong.

"It’s just one gauntlet, and it’s not even a pair. What luck is that?" Bai Cangdong said, feigning indifference, but he was secretly delighted. This gauntlet alone was worth more than a hundred years of life scales.

"Really, the heavens are blind, giving you this luck, while I can only get some life scales." Feng Xian attacked the lightning demons, hoping to get a piece of the Gleaming Lightning Set like Bai Cangdong.

On the way, Feng Xian almost took on all the work of killing lightning demons, not complaining even when it was tough. But it seemed the heavens were deliberately playing tricks on him. Not only did he get no equipment, but even the life scales were few.

"Uncle Feng, don’t just focus on killing lightning demons. We’ve already gone deep into the ancient demon cave. Have you found any trace of the Eight-Eyed Celestial Lord?" Feng Xian asked anxiously.

"I can smell the fresh scent of the Eight-Eyed Celestial Lord. It should be nearby. Take out the Sun True Fire to avoid its Heavenly Eye Pupil Technique," Feng Xian said.

"We’re already prepared." Both Bai Cangdong and Feng Xian had a crystal bead containing Sun True Fire hanging from their chests. Without the变异能力 of the undead altar, Sun True Fire was enough to counter the Eight-Eyed Celestial Lord’s Heavenly Eye Pupil Technique.

Feng Xian continued to kill lightning demons, not letting Bai Cangdong and Feng Xian help.

Bai Cangdong watched Feng Xian’s sword technique and found it truly impressive, with a very strong life force light.

"Uncle Feng’s strength is probably not weaker than the Four Knights," Bai Cangdong said in admiration.

Feng Xian laughed, "When Uncle Feng was just a viscount, he once fought the Four Knights. The Four Knights only lasted less than two hours under Uncle Feng’s dual swords."

"Uncle Feng is that strong!" Bai Cangdong was shocked, not only by Feng Xian’s power but also by what Feng Xian had told him: he and over a hundred viscounts were once completely slaughtered by a baron-level undead. That baron-level undead must have been terrifying.

"Be careful, the Eight-Eyed Celestial Lord should be nearby," Feng Xian said suddenly, his expression serious.

Bai Cangdong and Feng Xian became alert, looking around to try to spot the Eight-Eyed Celestial Lord. Unfortunately, the Eight-Eyed Celestial Lord had invisibility, and unless it used its life force light, it was impossible to see it.

"Got you!" Feng Xian suddenly threw one of his Mo Dao at an empty spot on the mountain wall.

A scream echoed, and the Eight-Eyed Celestial Lord appeared, with the Mo Dao embedded in its back.

"You foolish creature, you can deceive my eyes, but not my nose," Feng Xian said, swinging the remaining Mo Dao towards the Eight-Eyed Celestial Lord.

Bai Cangdong and Feng Xian also charged forward, surrounding the Eight-Eyed Celestial Lord.

Invisibility was useless in the narrow cave, and its flight ability was almost ineffective. The Heavenly Eye Pupil Technique was also countered by the Sun True Fire. The Eight-Eyed Celestial Lord tragically died under the three of them.

"Good, the Eight-Eyed Celestial Lord dropped four Eight-Eyed Celestial Pearls. Take them," Feng Xian said, killing the Eight-Eyed Celestial Lord and obtaining four emerald cat’s eye-like pearls.

"Since we’ve got the Eight-Eyed Celestial Pearls, let’s go back," Feng Xian said.

"No hurry, let’s go deeper. I have a feeling I’ll get a piece of the Gleaming Lightning Set today," Feng Xian insisted.

Bai Cangdong and Feng Xian had no choice but to accompany Feng Xian in the ancient demon cave, hunting lightning demons. Unfortunately, the Gleaming Lightning Set never appeared, not even a piece of ordinary equipment.

"Uncle Feng, it’s getting late. Let’s go back," Feng Xian said, seeing that Feng Xian was almost obsessed with killing all the lightning demons in the cave and wouldn’t return without the Gleaming Lightning Set.

"This makes no sense. I killed so many lightning demons and didn’t even get a piece of ordinary equipment, but that brat only killed a few and got a Gleaming Lightning Gauntlet. This is so unfair," Feng Xian said angrily.

"Uncle Feng, that’s just fate," Bai Cangdong said with a smile.

Feng Xian could only follow Bai Cangdong and Feng Xian out, encountering another lightning demon on the way. Feng Xian casually killed it, not expecting much, but the lightning demon dropped a gauntlet emitting green lightning, similar to the one Bai Cangdong had.

"Ha, I knew it. My premonition was right," Feng Xian said excitedly, picking up the gauntlet and kissing it repeatedly.

"Stop, put it down," a group of people rushed over. It was Hua Qianwu, Hua Mingyang, and members of the Knight Order.

"It’s mine, why should I put it down?" Feng Xian ignored them, equipping the gauntlet in front of them, admiring it from all angles.

"Feng Xian, the ancient demon cave is under the jurisdiction of our Knight Order. Your unauthorized entry is a great disrespect to the Knight Order. Hand over the item and leave immediately, and we’ll consider this incident as never having happened," Hua Mingyang said with a hostile look, glancing at Bai Cangdong with venom.

"When did the ancient demon cave become the jurisdiction of the Knight Order? Even the Four Knights wouldn’t dare to say that. I can’t believe you have the nerve to say it," Feng Xian said with a sneer.

"It’s a fact. We have always been responsible for clearing the ancient demon cave. You are overstepping your authority," Hua Qianwu said calmly.

"You’ve been in the Knight Order for only a few days, and you’re already talking like that," Feng Xian mocked.

Hua Qianwu remained unperturbed, "No matter how long I’ve been in the Knight Order, I am now a member, and I have the right to say this. The responsibility of clearing the ancient demon cave was personally assigned by the baron. If you have any questions, you can go to the baron."

"Why so much talk? I’m in a good mood today and don’t want to play with them. Little Fairy, let’s go home and drink. I’ll treat you," Feng Xian said, walking out.

Hua Qianwu and Hua Mingyang clearly didn’t recognize Feng Xian. He had left the core of Fenghua City before they were born, and Hua Qianwu had only heard of Feng Xian but never met him.

Seeing Hua Mingyang move to block Feng Xian, Bai Cangdong knew a good show was about to start. Even with nearly thirty people from the Hua family and the Knight Order, they would still be at a disadvantage against Feng Xian.

Sure enough, as soon as Hua Mingyang moved, he was slapped away by Feng Xian, losing several teeth. It was clear that Feng Xian was deliberately retaliating for Feng Xian.

"How dare you attack our Knight Order? This is a challenge to the baron. Capture them and let the baron decide their fate," Hua Qianwu said, putting a big hat on Feng Xian’s head, then directly summoning the Hell Flame Messenger Set and attacking Feng Xian.
