The outside world was unaware of Ye Sisi's struggles; they only thought she was hypocritical, that she could have saved people but didn't, and that she was just pretending to cry in the end.
"I really misjudged her. I thought she was a chivalrous woman with a noble character, but it turns out she is so cold and ruthless."
"That's right, that's right. Everyone knows that the Heavenly Spirit Sect, from True Person Tianyuan to those few disciples, doted on her to an extreme degree, but in the end, they produced a heartless ingrate. Tsk tsk, it's really a case of feeding the dog with all their sincerity."
"I wonder if Master Tianyuan would regret his decision to take on a disciple if he saw this scene."
"Am I the only one who thinks Shuangluo is too tough? Waaah, actually he doesn't have to be so tough."
"Such a handsome man, and he died just like that, my heart aches so much!"
"Waaaaah, why doesn't Ye Sisi stop? Is her heart made of stone?"
"Exactly! They're heartless! Why wasn't it her who died?!"
"..."
These are, of course, only the views of a portion of the cultivators.
Another group of people saw things more clearly and had a longer-term perspective. They weren't blind; they could tell from the strange Taoist's reaction that Ye Sisi's behavior could threaten him.
Moreover, the mastermind behind the infighting among the cultivators was most likely that Taoist priest, so they were unwilling for Ye Sisi to stop for the sake of her senior brothers, even though it was cruel. But everyone has selfish desires and different degrees of closeness and distance.
Just then, someone exclaimed,
"Look quickly, a cultivator has died."
Actually, no one needed to remind them, because everyone has eyes, and the one who died was a direct disciple of the Canglan Sect. Large sects like the Canglan Sect always receive more attention than cultivators from small sects or independent cultivators.
The deaths of the Canglan Sect disciples were like flipping a switch; one disciple after another perished at the hands of their opponents. But the victors were not happy; instead, they stood there dumbfounded and at a loss.
At the same time, Lin Shuangluo's primordial spirit had also dissipated. Fearing that he would become the next bargaining chip to threaten Ye Sisi, Ye Shubai also detonated his own primordial spirit without hesitation, leaving not even his soul behind. His decisive action was shocking.
Those who witnessed all fell silent; even as outsiders, they were stunned by the charisma of the two handsome men from the Heavenly Spirit Sect and lost their ability to think.
Ye Sisi's tears kept flowing. If the price of saving everyone was sacrificing her senior brothers, she would rather someone else die. You could call her selfish, you could call her cold-blooded, but what did it matter? It was better than watching her senior brothers die in front of her.
She only wanted to change the fate of her sect at first. She was not someone who could shoulder the great responsibility of the world. Why, why did Heaven choose her? Why could she not change the fate of her senior brothers no matter what she did?
The Taoist priest in hemp robes trembled with rage. He truly hadn't expected that these two male cultivators, whom he considered less than ants, could be so decisive.
He then looked at Gu Yunyan, the only one still alive. Gu Yunyan gently curled her lips and thrust the long sword pressed against her chest inwards with swift and decisive movements.
The Taoist priest in hemp robes hadn't intended to use such an unimportant pawn to threaten Ye Sisi, but he felt that Gu Yunyan was provoking him.
What right does a cripple whose dantian has been destroyed have to act so arrogantly in front of him?
But as he watched Ye Sisi's pace quicken, he snorted and disappeared again. He needed to go even faster, or his plan would truly fail.
Seeing Lin Shuangluo and Ye Shubai's self-destruction, Su Jiuli and Ouyang Yanyu stood up angrily. Ouyang Yanyu's tears flowed uncontrollably, and Su Jiuli's eyes were also red, her bones clenching so tightly they cracked.
They never expected the situation to take such a sharp turn for the worse.
In the other dazzling space, Bai Luochen's eyes were also bloodshot. He frantically pounded on the light screen in front of him and roared, "Let me out! If you don't let me go, I'll self-destruct!"
It was very quiet around him. In fact, Bai Luochen himself didn't know where he was. He had been here since he came in. At first, he could still contact the outside world, but then the communication jade tablet suddenly shattered.
He also tried to speak to the entity that had brought him in, but so far he has not received any response.
He couldn't take it anymore. Even if he went out, he couldn't do anything. He still wanted to go out. So what if he died? The people of the Heavenly Spirit Sect would die together.
Seeing that he still didn't get a response, Bai Luochen gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words: "Fine, fine, you won't let me go, huh? Then you can keep my ashes to make tea."
After saying that, he closed his eyes and was about to detonate his nascent soul. He was tired of being manipulated like this.
A man's long sigh drifted through the air.
Immediately, Bai Luochen's violent spiritual energy was suppressed by a powerful force that was completely irresistible.
Seeing that Bai Luochen was still struggling, the man's voice continued, "You will die someday, but not now."
After he finished speaking, a dazzling light entered Bai Luochen's brow. In the blink of an eye, Bai Luochen calmed down, and a large amount of memories flooded into his mind.
Ye Sisi's primordial spirit, already numb, had completely stagnated. She felt utterly useless, wondering why she couldn't even protect the person she wanted to protect.
Just then, she felt a mysterious connection between herself and the entire world of immortal flowers.
It was as if her life was bound to the world of the Immortal Flower. As long as this world was not destroyed, she could live forever. But this connection was very weak, as if it could be broken at any moment.
But the next moment, she coughed up a mouthful of blood and felt a tearing pain in her body.
