The Tianyun Sect and Mo Wen Dao Sect barely had time to hold a formal alliance ceremony before they were thrust into a tense state of war preparation.

The Tianfeng Legion came with overwhelming force, especially under the guidance of the traitor Xia Chong, who knew the Tianyun Mountains inside out. Everyone knew that a tough battle was imminent.

Li Shouzhuo immediately returned to the Heaven-Gazing Hall with Jing Buer and Han Buyi to discuss strategies, while the disciples of both sects dispersed to rest and recuperate.

Mo Wen Dao Sect decided not to return to Taihang County, as most of their elite forces were already present. They stayed to help the Tianyun Sect fend off the Tianfeng Legion's attack. Baili Xiaofan led Meng Yunfei and other third-generation disciples to join the intense training of the Tianyun disciples, ready to fight the invaders at any moment.
