Chapter 1009: Chapter 650: Dao Ye is the Dragon Tiger Arhat (8K4, still owing 8K6)_4

Sect Master Shen had not appeared in person but had once again saved their lives.

It was the life that the other party had given, so they had no right to be rash and reckless.

However... it really felt intolerable!

Zi Xian looked back in shock.

She saw Zi Ling still standing quietly at the peak of the mountain, not angry but instead sending them off with a smile brimming with tenderness.

That sweet smile sent chills down her spine.

"Ladies and gentlemen, have a safe trip. I won’t see you out."

"We’ll talk another time in Hongze."

Seeing Zi Xian look back, Zi Ling’s smile broadened, and she even waved her hands lightly, greeting the departing crowd.

Upon hearing the word "Hongze,"

Everyone, including Xuan Qing, simultaneously stopped in their tracks.

"What’s wrong?"

Ye Lan frowned and looked back, noticing that these people showed no gratitude for their narrow escape from death. Instead, everyone’s face was filled with a determination to die.

No one answered.

They were just staring dead at the woman on the mountain peak.

Sure enough, the other party had already planned to go to Hongze and would naturally discover the fall of Shi Ren... Living a few more days was meaningless; what they cherished most, their homeland and the countless beings within it, was about to become the target of the Celestial Court’s Immortal Soldiers’ purge.

There was no escaping this predicament!

"You also come from Hongze, and you know how much effort you expended and how many people you harmed to leave that place."

"It didn’t have to be like this, right?"

Ji Jingxi slowly turned around and said softly.

If it weren’t for Shi Ren, even Zi Ling herself could have naturally come to this divine land, taken the proper path to seek opportunities, and ascended to immortality and ancestry. Why bother doing these things?

However, her words did not move Zi Ling at all.

The girl in the purple-white long dress, looking seriously at the crowd, said, "But I have already left."

Once out, one is no longer of the same kind.

To her now, these former friends were all troubles, stains, and people who deserved to die!

With these words spoken, the crowd finally saw nothing but despair in their eyes.

Sect Master Shen, with his own power, had obtained a piece of the Azure Sky for Hongze, but it was ultimately going to collapse in the hands of this woman.

"..."

Ye Lan was silent for a moment before she realized why Shen Yi had earlier hoped she would send these people away, preferably without meeting Zi Ling.

But she had thought the area around He Mountain was the safest, and if these people left her sight, she would not be able to guarantee the promise she had previously made. Therefore, she had only asked Meng Xiuwen and Ye Jing to go and keep an eye on them.

It turned out that there were other issues involved.

"What’s the trouble? Just say it, I’ll discuss it with her master."

Ye Lan sighed and rubbed her temples.

Yet, there was no joy on everyone’s faces; there was no room for negotiation when it came to intercepting an Immortal Official.

At that moment, just as Ye Lan raised her eyes, she was startled, "Why have you come?"

She saw a man in ink-black robes walking slowly from the end of the Sky Curtain.

"Well, everyone is here, not a single one missing; time to go back..." Ye Lan glanced at the group of people by her side.

"Thank you, Senior Ye."

The man in the ink-black robe walked past the crowd and headed forward, "Shen Yi owes you a favor."

"Don’t play dumb. I said it’s time to go back. Don’t forget what you promised me."

Ye Lan had mostly guessed the troubles these people had gotten into. Now that they had entered the Demon Slayer Bureau, there were many other ways to clear those issues, and there was no need to exacerbate the conflict.

As a Titled General responsible for the safety of many manors, she could not be implicated by Shen Yi in this kind of affair.

To take action against an Immortal General under the Fifth Grade, even she would need to report to the higher-ups first and have a sufficiently solid reason.

"Without a sufficient reason, I will not act."

Ye Lan thought this statement should be enough to deter the other party’s wishful thinking.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yi looked back slightly and said earnestly, "The previous matters have concluded; the remaining issues, I will handle myself."

The young man’s words did not have any fluctuation, yet they left Zi Yang and others completely stunned.

They had never thought that Sect Master Shen would appear here under these circumstances.

In terms of grievance, he did not know Zi Ling; in terms of other attachments, this young Sect Master had only stayed in Hongze for a few years, which, to a Cultivator, could be considered a mere pass-through.

Moreover, Shen Yi now had made connections with the renowned figures of the Three Immortals Sect, a future bright as brocade.

To speak unkindly, letting Hongze perish could cleanse his tarnished reputation. With the protection of the Daluo Immortal Venerable from the Three Immortals Sect, who dared to splash the dirty water of Shi Ren’s fall onto him?

But still, he came.

"What do you intend to do?" Ye Lan almost laughed out of anger; although the Purple-Bearded White Dragon was not stable in cultivation and had weak followers, he was still a Sixth Grade Heavenly Immortal, let alone backed by the Qingluan Immortal General.

"..."

Shen Yi did not respond; the next moment, he appeared directly at the peak of the mountain.

Zi Ling’s smile had not yet faded as she scrutinized the young man before her, "How is it, does this senior also want to meddle in the affairs of the Immortal Court?"

"Don’t call me senior."

Shen Yi looked down indifferently and uttered a single word, "Dirty."

As soon as the word fell, his clean boots suddenly stamped on Zi Ling’s abdomen.

The Purple-Bearded White Dragon, at the Boundary of Heavenly Immortal Cultivation, didn’t have an instant to react from start to finish, his expression frozen as his body flew backward like a broken sack!

Boom—

The instant shattering of the tall mountain left all the onlookers in astonishment.

The crowds from Hongze, who had just experienced Zi Ling’s formidable strength, watched wide-eyed as she was blasted away by that seemingly mundane kick.
