Chapter 692: Eight Stars Of Heavenly Jade Flower (Part 5)

The demonic beasts, being more sensitive to smells, had thus been drawn to it, causing the current chaos.

Moments later, the Green Lotus Sect’s signal was sent into the sky.

Simultaneously, other signals were also sent up, as the other forces began to gather their members.

"Young Master, it looks like it’s a signal from our side," a devil noticed one of the signals from a distance, outside the cliffs where the Eight Stars Of Heavenly Jade Flower was located.

The human and devil signals were different, but they could only tell it was a devil’s signal without knowing which specific devil sent it.

A devil with two large horns, thicker than those of the other devils, glanced nonchalantly at the signal in the sky.

He was the Young Master mentioned earlier, "What does that have to do with us?"

After speaking, he turned his malicious gaze to the human cultivators across from him, who were barely holding on and looking utterly in despair.

"We’ve been in the Double Cavern Secret Realm for so many days and finally encountered four human cultivators. It would be a shame not to have some fun with them after searching for so long," he sneered.

Upon entering the Double Cavern Secret Realm, both human cultivators and other devils primarily focused on finding the secret realm’s resources.

When encountering other forces, they usually choose to avoid conflict, especially the human cultivators.

This devil had a frustrated expression, and the others dared not oppose him.

As the city lord’s son, he had a prestigious status.

The city lord had specifically sent six people to protect him in the secret realm.

There were only four human cultivators, and two of them were particularly weak.

They were practically easy prey.

Under the relentless attacks, the two human cultivators who were protecting their weaker companions were already covered in wounds.

"Senior Brother Zhang, Senior Brother Cao, we’re sorry for dragging you down," Vincent Tan sobbed.

Ding Huiqing’s face was dark as he glared at the arrogant devil, "Damn it, I’ve never been bullied like this before. If you’ve got the guts, fight me one-on-one."

Senior Brother Zhang and Senior Brother Cao, entangled by five devils and sustaining new injuries, felt increasingly helpless and desperate.

They, too, had seen the Green Lotus Sect’s signal.

Initially, they had hoped for Renshu Chang and the others to rescue them, but it seemed Renshu Chang had been faster in using the signal.

The two of them mistakenly believed that Renshu Chang and his group had encountered a crisis and sent a distress signal, unaware that it was merely a summoning signal.

The devils clearly knew their weaknesses, so they frequently attacked Vincent Tan and Ding Huiqing.

The two of them quickly found themselves overwhelmed.

"Huiqing, let’s send a distress signal too. Maybe our fellow sect members will come to rescue us," Vincent Tan said anxiously.

If Senior Brother Zhang and Senior Brother Cao died because of him, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.

"The signal is far away. Even if they see it, it’ll take time for them to get here," Ding Huiqing replied, uncharacteristically showing some wisdom.

"That’s still better than waiting here to die. That devil’s gaze is terrifying. Even if Senior Brother Chang doesn’t see it, maybe Amalia will," Vincent Tan said while sneaking a glance at the devil young master.

When the devil noticed his gaze, he flashed an evil smile, scaring Vincent Tan.

Mentioning Amalia made Ding Huiqing unhappy, but he knew he couldn’t let personal grievances jeopardize his fellow disciples’ lives.

Finally, he took out the signal and sent it into the sky.

Seeing this, Senior Brother Zhang and Senior Brother Cao could only place their hopes on others.

These devils were too cunning.

At this rate, even if they used their last resort, they might only manage to kill one or two devils, leaving Vincent Tan and Ding Huiqing still in danger.

"Finally asking for help," the devil young master said after seeing their signal.

Instead of being angry, he was pleased.

He had been waiting for this.

Had it not been for the desire to lure more human cultivators over for his sadistic pleasure, he would have ordered his subordinates to finish them off long ago.

Vincent Tan didn’t realize this and eagerly waited for the rescue.

Ding Huiqing, on the other hand, noticed and was so angry he nearly ground his teeth to dust.

"This bastard has been waiting for us to send a signal. He must be planning to hunt down the ones coming to rescue us, just like he’s hunting us."

Vincent Tan became worried upon hearing this, "What should we do then?"

"What else can we do? We can only hope that the people coming to rescue us are strong enough," Ding Huiqing said with a gloomy face.

Vincent Tan’s eyes lit up, "That’s right if Amalia and her companion come, we’ll be saved."

Ding Huiqing’s expression soured.

The last people he wanted to see were them, but he knew that Senior Brother Chang and the others were unlikely to come, as it was Renshu Chang who was also the one who sent the signals.

However, if they did come, they might indeed be saved.

Ding Huiqing remembered how the four of them combined couldn’t match Amalia’s strength, and he couldn’t help but feel a glimmer of hope.

Amalia and Kenny Lin were quite far from the cliff where the Eight Stars Of Heavenly Jade Flower grew. Because of the distance, they didn’t see the summoning signal sent from the cliff but did notice the distress signal sent by Ding Huiqing afterward.

"That’s a signal from the Green Lotus Sect, right?" Amalia looked up.

Kenny Lin nodded.

"Something must have happened for them to send a distress signal. We’re not far, so let’s go check it out," Amalia decided immediately.

With the Green Lotus Sect’s disciples in distress, they couldn’t ignore it.

As she changed direction, Kenny Lin followed her immediately.
