Jiang Xi stepped aside, making way for Lin Hao.
Lin Hao looked at the blind man with some skepticism. Seeing that these people had no hostility, he ran towards the Demon Realm without looking back.
Only after the figure disappeared did Duanmu Qiao ask, "Do you think killing him would dirty your hands?"
"It's nothing," Jiang Xi said calmly. "That old Demon Lord bullied Junior Sister, and that's not something we can just let go of. Lin Hao should be able to give him a hard time and make them fight amongst themselves."
Duanmuqiao only felt a little cold on his back.
Since most of the team went to break through, they will only stay here for a few days.
After the surviving righteous cultivators had recovered from their injuries, they left with Qiao Yushi's remains. Qiuqiu joined Yingyi and the others, and upon learning that Tianning was breaking through, she flew to the top of the Heavenly Dao and nestled there, attracting the attention of the others.
You know, Qiuqiu has always been closest to Tianning. When Tianning is not around, it doesn't want to talk to anyone. I didn't expect it to be willing to be close to this child.
"Tianning is really lucky. She's only been gone a few days and she's already made a contract with a ten-thousand-year-old ginseng that can transform." Seeing that the child wasn't human, Duanmu Qiao was a little envious of Tiandao's body. Even just a few leaves plucked from that ten-thousand-year-old ginseng would be treasures!
I don't know where Tianning found it.
The Heavenly Dao ignored them, simply finding a corner facing the mountain where Tian Ning was, and waited there...
Thunder has been very busy these past few days, splitting this mountain peak one moment and that mountain peak the next, sometimes even splitting several at once. The spectacular scene... makes it hard to distinguish between day and night.
Duanmu Qiao's mind was in turmoil. They had only fought a battle in the Demon Realm, so why were they all rushing to break through?
Fortunately, after a few days, everyone returned one by one. During the day, Fu Hongming was an extremely friendly senior brother. He not only praised Shi Qinxin and Long Aotian, but also encouraged every disciple who returned.
Long Aotian was very happy to be praised, but Leng Hong glanced at him and said coldly, "How promising you are. Look at your junior sister."
"I remember it hasn't been long since Sister Tian broke through last time, right?" With most of the people back, Qin Ling looked at the still thundering mountain and sighed, "She really is a genius."
Long Aotian grumbled, "We're all geniuses, okay? It's just that we can't compare to that freak, Junior Sister."
While everyone was chatting, Shi Qinxin noticed something and spoke up:
"Strange, where are the child and Chuchu?"
For the past few days, Tiandao had been sitting there without eating or drinking, waiting for Tianning, but now he was nowhere to be seen. Since he was a human ginseng in human form and wouldn't starve, everyone just let him be.
As soon as Shi Qinxin finished speaking, everyone became alert and lost their initial nonchalance.
Leng Hong, Ge Gang, and the others positioned themselves in front, protecting Duanmu Qiao, Qin Ling, and Helian Boda in the middle. This formation was something they had gradually figured out after being brutally beaten by Taotie during this period. The group had clearly developed excellent teamwork. Duanmu Qiao quickly set up the formation in the middle, while Qin Ling kept a close eye on Leng Hong and the others. If needed, she would take out magical artifacts from her ring pouch to replenish their supplies.
Even Helian Boda, a mere alchemist, had a heavy responsibility. He held the stick Qin Ling had given him and stood beside Duanmu Qiao to protect her. If Duanmu Qiao's spiritual energy became insufficient, he could replenish her with pills in time.
It's hard to imagine that one day these direct descendants of various sects could cooperate so seamlessly.
Upon their return, Zhou Mengya and Wu Hanyan were handed over to Fu Hongming. Their cultivation had been destroyed by the heavenly lightning, and they only began to rebuild their cultivation in the last two days.
Fu Hongming was taking on three opponents at once, while Taotie beside him was eagerly anticipating how his training results would fare against these suddenly appearing cultivators.
The group reacted with remarkable speed. Faced with the sudden attack from the uninvited guests, Leng Hong's sword energy swiftly collided with the arrows fired by the opponent. As Ge Gang clenched his fist and slammed it in the direction the arrows had come from, Zhou Han made a hand seal, imbuing his arm with a layer of Phoenix True Fire...
The fist slammed into the ground, the flames scorching the green plants and nearly turning a male cultivator's leg into a bloody pulp!
The other person stared wide-eyed at the huge hole Ge Gang had smashed in the ground, so frightened that he wet his pants...
Ge Gang cursed, "Useless coward who only knows how to launch sneak attacks!"
He raised his fist, ready to teach these people another lesson—after all, no one would be happy to be suddenly attacked—but Qin Ling behind him called out in time, “Ge Gang, stop!”
"What's going on? This is so strange!"
"They're from the Western Continent, and they're wearing the robes of the Four Holy Temples." Zhou Han clearly recognized them as well, and coldly questioned them, "We come from the Eastern Continent. The four continents have always lived in peace. Why did you suddenly attack us?!"
"The Western Continent..." Long Aotian muttered, then suddenly remembered something: "Tao Tao, out of so many continents, why did you choose the Western Continent!"
Taotie scoffed: "What's wrong? Got your mortal enemy?"
"Just capture them and kill them!"
Long Aotian: "..."
