Qi Rui appears at the Qis' annihilation

Just as the Red Falcon's claws were about to capture Qi Hong, a golden sword energy shot up from below.

If the Red Falcon continued its attack on Qi Hong, it would inevitably be hit by the sword energy, leaving the Red Falcon no choice but to flap its wings, change direction, and dodge the strike.

Then, a figure in a black robe and wearing a mask appeared beside Qi Hong, grabbed him, and turned into an escape light, retreating back into the valley.

The speed was comparable to the mid-stage of the Golden Core; the Red Falcon simply couldn't keep up.

Following that, a red mist rose within the valley, and a Third Stage formation took shape.

Qi Zhe, Qi Yong, and Qi Wei were desperately battling Fu Nian when they felt the sudden change and were somewhat pleasantly surprised.

Based on the figure of the man in the black robe and the timing of his appearance, Qi Zhe guessed his identity—Qi Rui, the former family head of the Qis.
