After Lilian and her threepanions had sent Master Barker plummeting into the bottomless
chasm of the Bead Peak, they were about to descend into the abyss to confirm his fate.
However, Gilmore halted them. “Lilian, there’s no need to go down and check.”

A trace of worry flickered across Lilian’s face. “But what if Master Barker isn’t dead? Wouldn’t we be
letting him off easy?”
Gilmore responded indifferently, “It’s fine.”
Lilian and the other three women looked at him, taken aback.
They hadn’t expected Gilmore to brush it off.
Nevertheless, since he had told them there was no need to check the abyss, they didn’t
1. go.
Instead, theynded next to Gilmore and the others.
“Gilmore, the Venerable Master seems to have escaped,” Lilian said to him when she looked around
but did not see the Venerable Master.
“He won’t get far. Mr. Gould and hispanions are already in pursuit,” Gilmore informed her.
“Where is he?” Lilian inquired.
Gilmore pointed towards the other side of the iceberg, just around the corner from their current
location.
The Venerable Master had fled to the other side, hence Gilmore couldn’t see him from where they
were.
“Let’s go after him,” Lilian said.
Thinking of the Venerable Master’s treacherous and venomous nature, Lilian wished nothing more
than to vanquish him once and for all.
Gilmore nodded.
Without dy, everyone flew towards the other side of the iceberg.
After reaching the other side, they discovered a valley–like area amidst the ice, several hundred
yards away.
Yes, a valley on the iceberg!
The valley was vast enough to hold thousands of people.
And the valley was surrounded by cliffs piled up with snow.
In the valley, they saw the Venerable Master, already encircled by Kean and thousands of masters
from the Secret Sect.
“Your end is at hand, Venerable Master!” Kean proimed with a glint of hatred in his eyes,
speaking coldly.
The Venerable Master chuckled disdainfully. “Kean, you’re nothing but a defeated foe. Thinking you
can kill me is pure fantasy!”
Unperturbed, Kean retorted, “Is that so? You’re cornered. Let’s see how you’ll escape this!”
“Huh, Kean, I’m afraid you’re in for a disappointment. Today is not my end. On the contrary, it’s
yours,” countered the Venerable Master, a sharp glint shing in his eyes.

O
With that, a fierce glint shed across his eyes.
The next moment, he shouted coldly, “Where are the one thousand masters of the Bead Peak?”
Following his cold shout, the snow erupted in chaos, swirling in all directions with a loud rustling
sound.
From the mountainside, mounds of snow burst apart, revealing figures dressed in white.
There were a total of a thousand people on the valley cliff.

A thousand skilled masters from the Bead Peak stood ready, bows drawn, aiming directly at Kean
and the rest of the Secret Sect masters in the valley below.
Yes, these were the Venerable Master’s elite forces, pre–positioned in an ambush.
The Venerable Master had lured Kean and hispanions into this valley as part of a deadly trap.
He nned to annihte them all in one fell swoop.
“Swoosh…”
Just then, Gilmore and hispanionsnded in the valley.
Seeing Gilmore and the others arrive, Kean looked uneasy.
That was because they had already fallen into the Venerable Master’s ambush. Moreover, there
were over a thousand elites on the cliff, holding bows and arrows as they looked down from above.
Once they fired their arrows, there would be no way to prevent them from suffering heavy
casualties.
Seeing Gilmore and the others appear, the Venerable Master, just like Kean, had a sh of worry in
his eyes.
He knew that Lilian and ire, who were next to Gilmore, were cultivators. He could not afford to
offend them.
Lilian and the others were safe and sound, standing next to Gilmore. However, Master Barker was
nowhere to be seen.
This made him feel that Master Barker was in grave danger.
The Venerable Master was extremely anxious.
He just wanted to lure Kean and others into an ambush and then kill them.
But he hadn’t anticipated Gilmore and his friends arriving so soon.
The Venerable Master thought Master Barker would have held them off longer until he’d dealt with
Kean and his forces.
However, their n couldn’t keep up with the changes.
He didn’t expect that Lilian and the others could defeat Master Barker so quickly.
The Venerable Master’s eyes shed with fierceness.
套
The resolute Venerable Master then appeared like a mighty eagle spreading its wings, soaring
towards the top of the valley.
As he ascended, he ordered, “Release the arrows!”
A thousand archers then let loose a deadly rain of arrows upon the valley.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”

The sound of arrows tearing through the air was relentless.
The arrows, sharp and forged from mystic iron, glittered menacingly.
Standing in the valley, Kean frowned.
He could see that the arrows were all made of ck iron, strong enough to cause casualties to a
master below the Martial King level.
With so many arrows flying and thousands of Secret Sect masters in the valley, even he, as strong
as Martial God was, couldn’t protect everyone.
Anxiety crept into his heart unnoticed.
In the valley below, thousands of Secret Sect masters witnessed a downpour of arrows from the
Bead Peak elites positioned along the cliff’s edge.
They were like sitting ducks, with no ce to hide in the valley, and escape was a fleeting
afterthought as the arrows blocked their path.
Looking at the rain of arrows shooting down at the same time, all the masters of the Secret Sect
could sense death approaching.
Defenseless, they were outmatched by the Bead Peak masters‘ ferocity and the deadly mystic–iron
arrows they fired.
It seemed the valley would soon turn into a deathbed, the masters from the Secret Sect about to
be human sieves.
But then, with a ground–shaking roar, the atmosphere trembled violently.
A burst of purple light unexpectedly erupted.
In the blink of an eye, a massive purple shield spread out at an rming speed, enveloping the
thousands of Secret Sect masters within the valley.
What followed was nothing short of miraculous.
The arrows raining down from the cliff, everyst one of them, were repelled by the protective purple
glow covering the valley and sent flying back to where they came from.
Yes, the arrows that sought to im their lives were now deflected skyward.
Furthermore, these arrows bounced back to the thousands of Bead Peak elites on the cliff.
None of the elites of the Bead Peak had expected this to happen.
Then, before they could recover from their shock, the flying arrows that had been shot out by the
purple air shield in the valley had pierced through their chests and throats…
Atop the cliff, the Bead Peak elites who were hit by the returning arrows let out blood–curdling
screams.
One by one, they fell from the cliff, struck down by their own attack.
Even the Venerable Master, yet to reach the cliff’s summit, was shot in the arm by a deflecting
arrow.
The pain elicited a scream from him.
These were no ordinary arrows, but mystic–iron ones.
With the strength of the Martial God and the protection of Martial God energy, he should have been
able to withstand the

ck iron arrows.

However, when the ck iron arrows hit the purple energy barrier in the valley, they were sent flying
back by a powerful force.
This unforeseen power boosted the arrows‘ lethality, wounding even a Martial God martialists like
the Venerable Master.
With an arrow lodged in his arm, the Venerable Master was taken aback.
Seeing the incredible energy emanating from the purple shield in the valley, he realized that a
cultivator from the opposing side had made a move.
Despite his injury, the Venerable Master, brushing aside the pain, hurriedly flew toward the cliff.
“Swoosh!”
Then, another sound of the sky being broken tore through the air.
And the Venerable Master’s leg took the next hit.
Gazing down at his bleeding leg, the Venerable Master could only grit his teeth and continue his
ascent.
Meanwhile, within the valley’s purple shield, Kean, Maria, and the rest of the Secret Sect masters
werepletely stunned!
