Five young men and women, three men and two women, dressed in matching robes, were of similar age and exuded an indescribable air of authority. Their appearance immediately attracted the attention of the rogue cultivators opposite them.
A woman with a cold expression glanced at A Jiang and the other two, then gently waved her hand, and the blue light shield surrounding them quietly disappeared.
All three of them, including A Jiang, were injured by the talisman earlier, leaving them in a state of disarray and covered in wounds.
A kind-faced young woman quickly approached them, fed them healing pills, and used some restorative spells to help them heal their injuries.
After some treatment, most of the skin and flesh wounds had healed. A-Jiang and Linglong, whose injuries were less severe, helped Ji Yi up, one on each side, and they went to the side of the injured golden eagle Tianpeng.
Ji Yi's eyes were filled with heartache. He hugged Tian Peng tightly and sobbed softly.
The roc let out a weak cry, and blood was flowing continuously from one of its wings, making it look particularly tragic.
A-Jiang found the female cultivator who had treated their injuries earlier and politely asked, "Fairy sister, could you please lend a hand and heal our spirit beasts?"
The female cultivator had also noticed the spirit beast lying to the side, but not knowing the situation, she was in no hurry to act. Since the young girl had invited her, she readily agreed and began to check on Tianpeng's condition.
The middle-aged man frowned at this behavior, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He tentatively asked, "Five of you, could you perhaps be high-ranking disciples of the Azure Lotus Sect?"
Among the five, the older male disciple smiled slightly, stepped forward, and cupped his hands, saying, "We are disciples of the Azure Lotus Sect. May I ask what grudges you have with these three young friends that have escalated to this point?"
A rogue cultivator standing next to the middle-aged man curled his lip and said disdainfully, "Senior Brother Hang, why bother talking to them? These rogue cultivators are always bullies who prey on the weak and fear the strong. They must have started this trouble first."
Another man in the group said dismissively.
“We brothers came here to capture the fox demon. We originally thought these three were fox demons in disguise, which is why we went to such lengths. Since you have come to our aid, it must be because we have made a mistake.”
The middle-aged man quickly changed his attitude when he saw things were going badly.
"Mistaken? This child clearly has a spirit beast, and you still say you've mistaken him? Do you think a fox demon would choose its natural enemy as a spirit beast? You don't even spare a few children who are only ten years old. If we let you continue like this, you might harm innocent people."
Another Qinglian Sect cultivator with a serious expression said.
Golden eagles, being large birds of prey on foxes, are a reason why the two races do not get along even after the foxes have cultivated into demons.
"So what do you want? We have no grudge against you, are you just going to kill us like this? Besides, these kids killed one of us and injured two of us, so it's only right that we kill them."
"Sigh, I told you that people like this can't be reasoned with, but you never believe me, it's a waste of your breath."
The young cultivator from before said with a helpless expression.
After a careful examination by the gentle female cultivator, Tianpeng's injuries had been initially treated. She took out several bottles of pills from her bosom and explained in detail how to use them.
After she finished, she walked over to the handsome monk and whispered a few words to him.
Senior Brother Hang turned his head, his gaze lingering between Linglong, Ajiang, and Ji Yi. After a moment of contemplation, he slowly spoke: "I will record your physical characteristics and report today's events truthfully to the Star Alliance and the Myriad Immortals Alliance. I believe that the disciplinary halls of the two alliances will make a fair judgment on this matter."
After saying that, he took out a jade slip, gently placed it on his forehead, and began to record relevant information.
The Star Alliance is an alliance of independent cultivators, and the Myriad Immortals Sect is an alliance of various sects. If these two forces find out about this matter, they will definitely be put on the wanted list.
The five rogue cultivators looked grim, but they felt they had escaped death just in time. As for the so-called punishment later, well, given the efficiency of the alliance, they might just let it go.
"Alright, you can leave now." After recording the surrounding situation, Senior Brother Hang said to the rogue cultivators.
The Qinglian Sect disciple with a disdainful expression curled his lip but said nothing. The others showed no expression and had no objection to their senior brother's actions.
The aloof woman, who moved with incredible speed, remained silent throughout. At this moment, she was gazing at the distant horizon, her deep eyes seemingly concealing countless unresolved thoughts.
Although the five were filled with resentment, they knew that these elite disciples from major sects were not people they could challenge. After some deliberation, they had no choice but to suppress their anger and silently leave, supporting each other.
Linglong and Ajiang watched the five figures gradually disappear into the distance, their eyes gleaming with an inexplicable light, as if they were pondering something.
Ji Yi carefully put Tianpeng into his spirit beast pouch, then sat down beside the two of them with a somewhat forlorn expression.
