“Damn it, why is he here?” Bai Qianchou cursed in his heart, his face uncertain.

Everything was supposed to go flawlessly. With two of his sons dead, it was reasonable for him to attack out of anger for his beloved children. Even others would consider it justified. But who could have anticipated this sudden twist?

With Long Qian here today, achieving his goal had become much harder.

“It was your Long family that killed my sons first! A life for a life, debts must be repaid. One life for one life, and in my case, it\'s two lives! Even if I kill him today to avenge my sons, who would dare say I’m wrong? Even if this goes to the City Lord, justice is still on my side!”

Bai Qianchou tried to take control of the situation, his eyes reddened with rage as he shouted furiously. Anyone unaware of the truth might really believe he was heartbroken over the loss of his sons.

“Bah!” Long Qian cursed angrily. “You have over a thousand sons? Two deaths and you think it\'s a big deal?”

“If you lost a hundred sons, you wouldn’t even blink. Stop pretending.”

“I bet you were happy when they died. It must’ve saved you a lot on food.”

“Honestly, only two? That’s not enough. Want me to help you kill a few more?”

Hearing this, Long Xuan\'s mouth twitched uncontrollably. A thousand sons? Is that even real? This guy’s a stud horse or what? How could he father so many children?

Isn\'t that a bit exaggerated?

Unable to resist, Long Xuan turned to Long Ruoxue and asked, “Does he really have that many sons?”

“A thousand is just the known number. Who knows how many more there are? He practiced a dual cultivation technique. As long as he engages in dual cultivation with women, his cultivation progresses rapidly. Many of these women were forced into it, and he doesn’t even care about the children they bear.”

“So, losing two sons wouldn’t bother him at all. Even if a thousand of them died, he wouldn’t flinch,” Long Ruoxue replied with a disgusted expression.

Long Qian\'s words struck a nerve. Bai Qianchou hadn’t been too upset about his sons\' deaths, but Long Qian\'s remarks enraged him.

“You\'re asking for death! Killing to repay a life is a matter of justice! Anyone who stands in my way today will die!” Bai Qianchou shouted, charging once more at Long Dan.

“We’ll see if my whip agrees with you,” Long Qian sneered as he also rushed forward. The two quickly became locked in combat.

The battle between Gu cultivators at the Spiritual Sea stage caused a huge disturbance. The shockwaves from the fight injured several nearby Bai family Gu cultivators, who coughed up blood. The crowd quickly retreated in panic.

Both fighters were of the same realm, evenly matched in strength. The fight was intense, with no clear winner for a while.

Just as the battle reached a stalemate, Long Lie, who had been watching, suddenly took a swig of wine and laughed loudly. Without warning, he launched a sneak attack on Bai Qianchou from behind.

Bai Qianchou’s face changed. He hadn’t expected there to be another Long family Gu cultivator at the Spiritual Sea stage hidden in the crowd. He could only respond hastily.

Now it was two against one. Under such pressure, Bai Qianchou quickly found himself overwhelmed. It wasn’t long before he was being pushed to the brink of defeat.

Killing Bai Qianchou on the street was out of the question. Long Qian remained rational and refrained from striking vital areas. After subduing Bai Qianchou, he began slapping him repeatedly.

As he slapped, he laughed wildly, clearly enjoying himself. The loud sound of slaps echoed through the street, and Bai Qianchou\'s face quickly turned red.

Bai Qianchou was furious to the point of passing out. As a high-ranking elder of the Bai family and a peak Spiritual Sea expert, he was a man of great influence. Now, being slapped in public like this was an unbearable humiliation. His dignity was being crushed, and he would undoubtedly become the laughingstock of the entire city. He was utterly enraged.

The onlookers were stunned.

You shouldn’t slap someone in the face. Long Qian’s move was ruthless. Though it didn’t seem like a heavy strike, even if they were caught brawling in public, he wouldn\'t face serious punishment. Yet, the psychological damage to his opponent was worse than death.

“Enough! Stop at once!”

At that moment, a voice boomed from the sky. “Two elders fighting in the streets—how disgraceful!”

Upon hearing this voice, the three finally stopped.

Bai Qianchou quickly shouted, “City Lord Master, please seek justice for me! The Long family has gone too far! They killed my sons first, and now they’ve humiliated me with slaps! This isn’t just an insult to me; it’s an insult to the entire Bai family!”

“Enough! All of you, come to the City Lord’s residence, and bring your clan heads!” The authoritative voice echoed from the sky and then vanished.

The crowd, realizing there was no more entertainment to be had, dispersed. However, the fact that a Bai family elder had been slapped in the street was explosive news. It would provide enough gossip to keep people talking for a long time. Many onlookers planned to brag to their friends and relatives about what they had witnessed.

“Ruoxue, take them back to the family immediately, and while you\'re at it, select a peak-grade Silver Moon Mantis for Long Xuan. Things may not be safe outside, so don’t leave the family until the arena competition begins,” Long Qian instructed before heading toward the City Lord’s residence with the other Long family Gu cultivators, including Long Dan, who had narrowly escaped death.

Long Dan, though calm, knew that since he wasn’t dead yet, things couldn’t get much worse. Brushing off the dust from his clothes, he walked steadily toward the City Lord’s residence.

Realizing the gravity of the situation, Long Ruoxue wasted no time. She quickly led the group back to the family.

The Long family market wasn’t far from their residence, and under their swift pace, they soon arrived at the family estate.

Finally reaching the safety of their family grounds without incident, Long Ruoxue breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Originally, the family head would’ve come to greet you, but due to the recent events, that’s no longer possible.”

“The family head has been summoned to the City Lord’s residence. In Blackstone City, killing is forbidden. Being accused of murder is no small matter, and if the charge can’t be cleared, it could lead to serious trouble.”

“So, for now, I’ll take care of you. Our Western land Long clan has many interesting places to visit.”

“But my master instructed me to help you select a Silver Moon Mantis first. Let’s head to the insect chamber to find one!”

With that, Long Ruoxue led them toward the chamber where Silver Moon Mantises were cultivated.

“Wait, the fifth elder only told Long Xuan to pick a Silver Moon Mantis? He didn’t let Long Ziyan pick one too? Isn’t that a bit biased? She’s born with sword bones and is perfect for bonding with a Blade Gu,” Long Biao commented, possibly in an attempt to impress Long Ziyan.

Long Ruoxue\'s face darkened. She wanted to tear Long Biao’s mouth apart. Was his brain made of water? He clearly spoke without thinking and dared to say anything.

If the family was gifting Long Xuan a priceless peak-grade spirit insect, it was obviously because they needed his help. Now, thanks to Long Biao’s thoughtless comment, it might look like the family was playing favorites.

The family now seeks favor from Long Ziyan, how could they let her harbor any ill will?

Goodness, asking the family to give away another peak-grade Spirit Insect! Do you think peak-grade Spirit Insects are as common as cabbages? They are priceless treasures, even though the family is vast and wealthy, they don’t have many of them.

This spendthrift is really too much of a burden.

Long Ruoxue covered her forehead, speechless to the extreme.

She glanced at Long Ziyan\'s expression from the corner of her eye and saw her looking at her with hopeful eyes, causing her heart to sink.

Earlier, she showed no interest in the Blade Gu at all, but after hearing Long Biao mention gifting her a Silver Moon Mantis, she instinctively began to wonder if the Blade Gu could integrate into her combat system.

The more she thought about it, the more her eyes lit up.

She hadn\'t given it much thought before, but now that she was thinking it over, she realized that the Blade Gu would be incredibly useful to her. She had to refine one.

The reason her swordsmanship had progressed so slowly was that this world had no Sword Cultivators, and there were no suitable opponents for her to spar with. Without accumulating combat experience, the path of swordsmanship was naturally difficult to walk.

Given that, if she could train the Blade Gu to become a Sword Cultivator, and spar with it every day, her path in swordsmanship would become much easier. After all, the Blade Gu\'s understanding of the Dao of blades and swords far surpassed that of humans.

The more she thought about it, the brighter her eyes became, until they were practically glowing.

Seeing the brightness in her eyes, Long Ruoxue was utterly exasperated.

This Long Biao is truly a disaster. The family is really suffering because of him this time.

"It seems our family hasn\'t thought this through enough. I\'ll ask on your behalf."

Long Ruoxue, helpless, could only take out paper and pen, quickly writing a letter. She exaggeratedly embellished Long Biao\'s words and handed the letter to the Sou Gu to deliver to her master.

Her heart was bitter. She felt losing one peak-grade Spirit Insect was inevitable. The family would definitely agree because Long Ziyan\'s talent was far too extraordinary. She was destined for greatness. Even if they weren’t seeking her favor, the family wouldn’t dare offend a genius of her caliber.

After sending the letter, she once again glared fiercely at Long Biao.

She suddenly noticed Long Bao, Long Yan, and Long Panpan all looking at her eagerly with expectant eyes, as if they, too, wanted peak-grade Spirit Insects.

Long Ruoxue immediately felt her scalp tingle.

"Enough! If we give out any more, our Western Lands Long Clan will really go bankrupt. If any of you have talent that matches theirs, we’ll gift you a peak-grade Spirit Insect too."

Upon hearing this, the group immediately deflated.

They were humans, not monsters. How could they compare to those two freaks?

Under Long Ruoxue’s lead, the group quickly arrived at a massive stone building.

As expected, this was the insect chamber used to breed Silver Moon Mantises. The Silver Moon Mantis is the main material for the peak-grade Blade Gu, so the Western Lands Long Clan focused on cultivating this insect species.

The place was built on a large scale, divided into two floors. Inside were a large number of silver-colored mantises, each with a crescent-shaped mark on their foreheads, resembling the moon in the sky. This was likely the reason the species was named Silver Moon Mantis.

The mantises varied in size. The larger ones were taller than a person, while the smaller ones weren’t even knee-high, their small eyes giving them a particularly cute appearance.

However, every one of these little cuties occasionally swung their sickle-like arms, revealing a fierce nature. Their warlike expressions ruined their cute appearance.

This was a large-scale base cultivation for the Silver Moon Mantis. Aside from Silver Moon Mantises, there were no other insect species here.

Many people were taking care of the Silver Moon Mantises. Under their supervision, many mantises were sparring, practicing their blade techniques.

From time to time, blades clashed in the air with crisp sounds. The speed at which the mantises swung their blades was astonishing. Some of them were so fast that their blades became nothing more than afterimages, making it nearly impossible to see their movements with the naked eye.

Long Xuan was surprised and said, "You’re already teaching them blade techniques?
