The battle raged on, fueled by a single grudge, a terrible tragedy, a vow to make the culprit pay the price.
“Kill.”
Yuan Wu Xiang and Juan Shou Tian launched another extraordinary attack, leaving no room for their opponents to speak.
Ge Xian Chuan was taken aback, realizing his plot had been exposed. He hadn't sought them out earlier because the time hadn't been right. He hadn't expected to be the one to jump out this time, essentially delivering himself to them.
Su Zhen looked on, joining other Daozhen practitioners in continuing to intercept the Lun Jian Hai followers, especially ensuring no one could rescue Tian Di Bian.
Bu Yuan Ting and the others were grim-faced, unable to believe they had been tricked. That was an undeniable threat.
The effectiveness of all this didn't need to be questioned. As long as they possessed strength, everything would be enough.
“Kill, kill, kill...”
The flames of war burned fiercely, the killing intent palpable. Nothing could stop them, and the complexities behind this tragedy remained undeciphered.
Bu Yuan Ting and the others knew that even if this battle ended, they would be ostracized by the Kunlun righteous path. After all, collaborating with evil was not a good reputation. Even if they had their own reasons, in the face of the greater good, they could only become sacrifices.
Within the Eternal Wall, Wang Lu and Hou Kui were once again injured, their powers unreturned, their strength diminished, leaving them in a rage of frustration.
Unfortunately, none of it could be reversed.
The mission of the Wild Sabre and Ye Xiao Chai was to kill Tian Di Bian, they couldn't let them escape. Otherwise, wouldn't that be a laughing matter, a joke for the Tianjiang Shepherd Gods?
Just as everyone was working together in unison, a cold light suddenly shone through the opening, the light of the Black Moon.
Wang Lu and Hou Kui were affected by the Black Moon, their powers instantly recovering somewhat, their strength rapidly increasing. They joined forces once again.
“Shi Hun Tian, Xie Ming Di, Hao Jie Zhi Bian.”
Tian Di Bian unleashed another powerful move, forcing the Wild Sabre and Ye Xiao Chai to hastily respond. The suddenly empowered Tian Di Bian took a few steps back.
Seizing the opportunity, Tian Di Bian turned into light and escaped the Eternal Wall, fleeing for their lives.
The Wild Sabre was furious, unable to believe that the two insects had actually escaped. It was a disgrace.
Ye Xiao Chai gestured a few times.
The Wild Sabre could only nod and then quickly left the Eternal Wall.
After Tian Di Bian escaped, they didn't linger in the Lun Jian Hai at all, fleeing directly. If they were intercepted, it would be a real hassle, with all sorts of possibilities and dangers.
Bu Yuan Ting and the others also saw this scene and left without looking back.
“Damn Tian Di Bian.”
They cursed inwardly, but they had no time for it now, and they couldn't spare themselves.
Su Zhen also saw it and couldn't help but furrow his brow. What was he going to do? Finding them again wouldn't be easy.
He couldn't fulfill the Shepherd Gods' requests, and they were just doing this as a side job. How could they continue their collaboration?
Ge Xian Chuan looked on and cursed, "Faithless bastards!"
Juan Shou Tian and Yuan Wu Xiang didn't care about this, they attacked even more fiercely, inflicting multiple injuries on him. With the addition of the Wild Sabre and Ye Xiao Chai, he was hard-pressed to defend himself.
In a short while, the perpetrator of the tragedy was beheaded, putting an end to this unresolved matter.
“Okay, it's over. Tian Di Bian escaped, but the Daozhen tragedy is settled. We'll hunt them down together later.”
Su Zhen could only say this. He hadn't expected such a turn of events.
The Wild Sabre said, "Su Zhen, that was the Black Moon's fault. If it wasn't for the Black Moon, the two insects wouldn't have gained power. Damn it.”
Su Zhen nodded, now understanding the relationship between the Yama King and Tian Di Bian.
They were all in the same boat, so they couldn't ignore them. If something happened to them, it would be a big problem.
“For now, let's leave it at that. We need to find out where they are later.”
“Right, let's do as you say.”
Soon, they left the Lun Jian Hai.
Bu Yuan Ting watched them leave, and though they didn't pursue the matter further, he knew he was even more isolated now.
Whether it was right or wrong, no answer could be given.
These rules were impossible to implement, impossible to achieve. Such safety had already been recorded, revealing its significance. It was inevitable.
“Chairman, what now?”
“They didn't kill us, that's something. This time, our collaboration with Tian Di Bian has been exposed. Gaining the approval of the righteous path again won't be easy.”
Bu Yuan Ting knew all too well that this stain would linger in everyone's minds.
It was undeniably ruthless.
Who could have uncovered such a thing?
He couldn't understand. It was clearly so secretive, how could they know? He couldn't feel at ease.
They didn't know at this moment, but that didn't mean Tian Di Bian was at ease.
“What should we do with Wang Lu now? They actually found us.”
“I don't know. Let's hide for now. We will eventually wait for the Three Suns in the Sky.”
Hou Kui could only accept this. He hadn't expected this outcome. Their lair had been raided.
If it hadn't been for the Black Moon shining in at the right time, they would have died. This time was really close.
This should not be underestimated, it was also something to be more hopeful about. True strength never required anyone's intervention. This was undeniable.
True strength never required anyone's words, never needed others to comment. They would rise again.
“After we recover, we will find the Yama King.”
“Good, let's talk about it after we recover.”
Tian Di Bian, as insects, were easy to hide. It wasn't easy to find two insects.
The Yama King was currently on Xie Bie Peak, waiting for the right moment. He also knew what had happened to Tian Di Bian.
“I never expected such a situation. It seems I can't wait any longer. I, the Yama King, must counterattack.”
If he continued like this, his strength and influence would be damaged, his potential shields would be lost, and that would be a problem. This was no small matter.
This situation wouldn't be so simple. There must be something behind it. Otherwise, how could this have been done? It was absolutely impossible.
Who was it?
His doubts grew, his anger intensified.
Whether it was for the traitors or the future battles, he needed strength now. If he continued with his old methods, trouble was sure to arise.
To face the future, he couldn't remain so passive.
Especially the Tianjiang Shepherd God, there had been no news from them. What had happened?
Had he given up on revenge, on clearing his name?
These questions lingered, but at this point, they couldn't give him any affirmation, any hope. In this sense, he was caught in the throes of self-deception.
Of course, even if he knew, it wouldn't change much. After all, they weren't stupid. Why would they let him lead them by the nose? That would be foolish. Surely, any intelligent person wouldn't want such a result, they would have the answers they desired, wouldn't they?
