Chen Ye hunched his back, mingling with the crowd as he slowly walked out with his three disciples.
The black-robed Cultivator scanned the crowd below coldly, his gaze briefly pausing on the camp’s corpses and some injured Cultivators before nodding slightly and saying:
"The Holy Sect is merciful. Those who are injured may stay behind to recuperate."
Upon hearing this, a small commotion arose among the crowd.
A few Loose Cultivators, injured from last night’s Magical Battle and knowing that entering the Celestial Abyss would be a dead end, felt a glimmer of hope in their eyes.
Rather than entering the Celestial Abyss to die, it was better to stay at the camp.
As long as they could stay alive, there would be a chance for a comeback.
They supported each other, limping out of the crowd, and continuously knelt to bow:
"Thank you, Sir! Thank you for the Holy Sect’s kindness!"
A cruel smile curled under the cloak of the black-robed Cultivator.
He waved to the disciples of the Emotion Crossing Sect behind him, speaking in a haunting tone:
"Take them away and settle them in properly. They’re so badly injured, they must be given the best blood pool and Pill Furnace to recuperate."
As soon as he finished speaking.
The disciples of the Emotion Crossing Sect, like hungry wolves, immediately pounced, chains flashing coldly as they pierced the pipa bones of those Cultivators.
It wasn’t support but rather dragging them away like dead dogs, roughly pulling them towards the back.
"Sir! What are you doing! You said you would let us recuperate?!"
"Let go of me! I don’t want to recuperate! I want to enter the Celestial Abyss! Let go—ugh!"
The disciples of the Emotion Crossing Sect, annoyed by their noise, casually landed heavy blows, shattering their jaws as they dragged them away like dead pigs into the depths of the camp.
In ordinary times, these Loose Cultivators would be capable, never surrendering easily, but the Emotion Crossing Seed planted within them left no room for resistance now.
A long streak of glaring blood marked the ground where they were dragged.
Loose Cultivators remaining on the square were as silent as cicadas in winter, not daring to breathe heavily.
Some felt fortunate not to have stepped forward rashly.
Those Loose Cultivators seemed to have come from the East Sea, still oblivious to the true nature of the Emotion Crossing Sect.
Chen Ye mixed within the crowd, his eyelids slightly lowered, his expression unperturbed.
The Demon Sect’s ways were always like this.
Exploiting waste, not even a bone fragment would be spared.
Even if no one stepped forward, the black-robed Cultivator would surely have named them personally.
Having handled these injured and the bodies, the black-robed Cultivator was very pleased with this display as a warning.
He folded his hands behind his back, speaking coldly:
"The Holy Sect never nurtures useless things. Having accepted the Unity Seal and received family funds, one must provide the necessary value."
With that, he waved his sleeves.
"Boom!"
The patterns in the air stirred.
Several black warships broke through the clouds, appearing. The ship’s body was engraved with sinister peach blossom skulls, extraordinarily eerie.
"Board the ships! Immediately head to the Celestial Abyss!"
The black-robed Cultivator shouted sharply, rising into the air and landing first in the main ship.
Chen Ye folded his hands within his wide sleeves, hunched his back, and led his three disciples, quietly mingling with the silent crowd as they ascended one of the warships via the stairs.
The inner space of the flying ships was cramped.
Around them, Loose Cultivators occupied corners, their gazes alert.
"Boom!"
Several black warships soared into the sky.
The wind howled, and the warships turned into streaks of black Flowing Light, diving into the endless sea of clouds surrounding the Celestial Abyss.
"Celestial Abyss..."
The small white fox, who had been napping, suddenly woke up.
What happened?
Where is this?
When did it end up in Qi Kingdom?
Why, after just regaining its Golden Core Cultivation, did it arrive at such a dangerous place like the Celestial Abyss?
The small white fox felt very despairing, thinking its fox life was terribly miserable.
However.
Now, it could change form!
It could finally humiliate those wicked Humans harshly!
Thinking of this.
The small white fox began to feel happy.
It remembered clearly how those wicked Humans had humiliated her back then!
And now, arriving at Celestial Abyss, no matter what it did, those wicked Humans couldn’t escape!
"Chirp, chirp! (The time has come, revenge today!)"
