Faced with these lazy disciples, the villains responded by kicking each of them.
"Get out of here!"
After patting off the non-existent ashes from their clothes, the little people bid farewell to Lu Wu. Of course, the spy Dong Baimei also left with them.
Xizhou, beyond the cradle of heaven.
An invisible barrier seemed to cut the heavens and earth in two, with the barrier standing in front blocking the way.
A group of people stood outside the Sky's Edge, constantly watching the World's Path.
"How long has it been?"
The leader was dressed in a flamboyant red outfit, with the collar open to reveal his fair collarbone and a small part of his chest. His features were striking, and he exuded a seductive charm with every gesture.
His name is Zigong, and he is an elder of the Fallen Immortals Society.
Don't get me wrong, he's different from those lousy managers. He only rose to the top of the Fallen Immortals Association after truly experiencing trials of blood and fire.
Above him is only the cult leader.
As the second-in-command of the Fallen Immortals Guild, his goal this time is to release the demon within the Scar of the Sky.
He personally oversaw the operation to ensure everything went perfectly.
Now, they are waiting for news from Dong Baimei.
If they could bring out the Rainbow Stone and use its immense power to break the barrier, they could release the demon silently.
"Elder Zigong, a quarter of an hour has passed since our agreed time, and there is still no news from Supervisor Dong."
"I'm afraid..."
The words were left unsaid, but the meaning was clear.
"Hmph, I didn't expect her to succeed anyway."
Zigong didn't take it seriously.
Anyway, these managers have failed one after another. If we put our hopes on them, when will the Fallen Immortals ever succeed?
Thinking of the news coming from Nanzhou, Zigong sneered.
The demon clone that was previously suppressed at Tianfo Temple failed to be released, but it doesn't matter.
At the time, it was just a small puppet that went there. If the other party was not careful and it was discovered, there was nothing that could be done.
This time, I'll do it myself, so there won't be any problems.
"Should we continue waiting?"
The subordinates inquired cautiously, not daring to offend Zigong.
"No."
Zigong waved his hand, walked to the edge of the barrier, and stood with his hands behind his back.
A half-smile played at the corners of his mouth, and the corners of his eyes turned up.
He raised his head slightly, his long hair loose, and one side of his collar slipped down, revealing a bit of skin.
He was both charming and alluring.
Zigong's facial features are exceptionally well-proportioned and striking.
After a moment of daze, his men quickly lowered their heads under Zigong's cold gaze, not daring to look any longer.
"Tsk."
Zigong chuckled, his fingers landing on the barrier, and his inner energy began to circulate.
After the spiritual energy was poured in, countless pillars of light rose around the barrier, starting from him. This was the trick he had laid beforehand.
It can still be done without the rainbow stone to break the formation, it's just that it will make a bigger commotion.
"Ready?"
As soon as he finished speaking, countless beams of light turned their guns and aimed them all at the barrier.
"Break for me!!"
With a furious roar, the beam of light collided with the barrier, and a fierce wind suddenly arose between heaven and earth.
The explosion's light obscured their vision, and the out-of-control spiritual energy forced some of their less powerful subordinates to retreat continuously until they were more than a hundred meters away before regaining their footing.
The Zigong Palace stood firm and unmoved in the wind.
Watching their elders' retreating figures, the disciples were filled with fervor.
"Certainly!"
Zigong's voice came from the chaos, and the raging winds were suppressed by Zigong, causing the sand and stones to fall.
Heaven and earth returned to clarity.
Snap, snap!
Numerous cracks appeared on the barrier in front of Zigong.
The barrier cracked.
As the last fragment fell away, Zigong squinted at the man who had suddenly appeared in front of him, his eyes filled with inquiry and apprehension.
It's Gu Yan.
Gu Yan glanced casually at Zigong Palace before looking into the distance.
"Huh!"
Gu Yan found it strange that after so many years, there were still people on the continent of Xizhou who had a karmic connection with him.
I counted on my fingers, and some memories flashed through my mind.
"Oh, it's Boss Lu."
Gu Yan chuckled lightly, his irritation at being woken up while he was sleeping soundly at home subsiding.
"You guys are lucky this time."
He didn't want to go to see Boss Lu covered in blood.
Gu Yan stared at Zi Gong, his tone gentle, yet Zi Gong sensed an endless chill in his voice.
Zigong lowered his head and clasped his hands in a fist salute.
"Senior, I am an elder of the Fallen Immortals Association. I am asking you to come out of seclusion this time because I hope you can do me a small favor."
"Senior, you are incredibly powerful. I imagine you could easily solve this by simply raising a finger."
"Of course, we have also prepared appropriate gifts, and we humbly request your assistance, senior."
Zigong looked at the ground and spoke respectfully.
He dared not be presumptuous in front of this devil.
"Elder, Elder..."
After he finished speaking, he kept his head down, waiting for Gu Yan's response, but unexpectedly heard shouts from his own men.
Zigong frowned.
Are these subordinates so brainless? Why are they interrupting at a time like this?
Gu Yan ignored his subordinates and spoke again.
“Senior, as long as you speak, everyone in our Fallen Immortal Society will respond.”
If he could bring this great demon back to the sect, he might be able to become the sect leader in the future.
"Elder!"
After he finished speaking, Gu Yan remained silent.
However, his subordinates spoke up again, which annoyed Zigong.
"Shut up!"
He shouted, turning to look at his subordinate with a fierce gaze.
If they angered this demon, they would all die here.
