Chapter 178: Chapter 178: The Destruction of Wuyou Island (3)_1

Xiao Yi and his three companions were all advance-level Phantom Emperors, yet among those imprisoned there were several whose Phantom Power equaled theirs. Along with others, Xiao Yi and his group were quickly subdued. Because of Dugu Qianye’s words, they were not killed but simply bound up.

"Baili Xie, thank you! Without you, we’d still be prisoners at the Divine Temple’s mercy."

"You’re welcome, the enemy of our enemy is our friend. The Divine Temple has treated us this way; naturally, we must support each other," Dugu Qianye said.

"But we don’t have a flying beast, even if we’ve subdued these people, we still can’t leave this place."

Man-eating fish surrounded the island, always roaming nearby. The people of the Divine Temple had brought them here and rarely fed them, so they were all very hungry. If they saw anyone try to leave, within moments, surely there would be nothing left but bones.

"Since I’ve helped everyone neutralize the poison from the Divine Temple, I will certainly lead everyone out," Dugu Qianye said. "However, tomorrow is the Divine Temple’s grand sacrificial ceremony held once every ten years. Shen Xingzong is even planning to use Huagui to forcibly absorb everyone’s Phantom Power, and they might even drag the entire Xuanyue Continent into a mass burial! So tomorrow, I will ask all seniors here to lend a hand!"

"The Divine Temple has held me for twenty years; even without this event, I would not let them off!"

"So, what do we do now?"

"We’ll dismantle this place today!" Dugu Qianye declared. "There are several torture chambers on the island; let’s split up and destroy them!"

Speaking of the torture chambers, Dugu Qianye seemed to see Youwu’s bloodied body again, and the fire in his heart surged up fiercely.

"Alright."

"But make sure you don’t damage the exterior. Lei Fengqi will still need to come here tomorrow to take me to Holy Spirit Island. We can’t let him discover anything," Dugu Qianye instructed.

"Alright, no problem. Let’s go, we’ll start now." Liu Jilin said, summoning a few people he got along with well, and they left.

"I’m sorry, but you’ll have to rest up here for now!" Dugu Qianye said. "I heard that after consuming Power Dissolving Powder, you cannot use your Phantom Power, and you can’t even summon Phantom Beasts. You’ve fed it to them for so many years, now it’s your turn to give it a try."

Dugu Qianye administered the collected Power Dissolving Powder to Xiao Yi and his group, then summoned Xiaoyin and Xiaojiu, instructing them to watch over the four prisoners. If anyone made a move, they were to be killed straight away.

"Master, you’ve finally remembered me, wuu wuu..." Xiaoyin transformed into a small dog as it emerged, pawing at Dugu Qianye’s chest and spoke.

"Alright, keep a good watch. If anything happens, I’ll punish you by not allowing you to eat for a year."

"Ah! Master, I will definitely complete the task!" Upon hearing Dugu Qianye’s words, Xiaoyin immediately promised. Jokingly or not, if it didn’t eat for a year, it might not starve, but it would certainly die of longing for food!

Dugu Qianye and the others searched the island for all the torture chambers, killed all the prison guards there, and released those who were imprisoned. They even provided elixirs to those who were injured. Finally, by dawn, everything was done.

"After I leave later, Qingluan will lead you all away. Before you leave, you can set the place on fire, along with the unfreedom of your past. Starting today, you are free again!"

Upon hearing Dugu Qianye’s words, everyone cheered. Having been imprisoned by the Divine Temple for so long, or tortured till they were barely human, today they had finally regained their freedom!

"Alright, everyone should rest now," Dugu Qianye said. "After daybreak, we still have a tough battle ahead of us!"

After hearing Dugu Qianye’s words, everyone returned to their rooms, and those who were held in the torture rooms found rooms to rest in.

"Baili, come here," Weng Yuzi beckoned Dugu Qianye to the small pavilion where they used to drink tea. "When you arrived, you said you would leave. I always thought you meant the Divine Temple would take you away; I never considered it would turn out like this."

"Shen Xingzong and Lei Fengqi were too confident, thinking that by threatening me with the students from Mors Empire, I would obediently stay here. Moreover, they are so used to everyone’s admiration and submission to the Divine Temple that they forgot I’m not a lamb waiting to be slaughtered! If they had been on guard against me from the start, I wouldn’t have been able to unbind your Power Dissolving Powder so easily."

"Bringing you here was their biggest mistake," Weng Yuzi said, "but it’s the luckiest thing for those of us imprisoned here. Do you know why we can’t cultivate here?"

"Isn’t it because of the Power Dissolving Powder?"

"No," Weng Yuzi said, "It’s this."

Weng Yuzi pointed to the stone table, signaling Dugu Qianye to break the surface. Dugu Qianye mobilized the Formless Divine Skill, concentrated her internal energy in her right hand, and then chopped down with a palm strike.

The stone table was split into two, revealing a black bead in the middle. Dugu Qianye picked up the bead and felt as though all the Phantom Power in her body had been frozen the moment she held it.

"This is?" Dugu Qianye looked at Weng Yuzi with confusion.

"I don’t know either," Weng Yuzi shook his head, "I only sensed that the fluctuations of Phantom Power were slowest inside the pavilion, so I guessed it was because of this. I didn’t know there was a bead inside, and I definitely didn’t know what the bead is. Since that’s the case, you should take it with you."

After speaking, Weng Yuzi walked out of the pavilion.

"Senior Weng Yuzi, if we are successful today and return to land after, if there is anything I can help with, please feel free to tell me," Dugu Qianye called out to Weng Yuzi.

"I will," Weng Yuzi smiled and then turned to leave.

Dugu Qianye placed the black bead into her Space Ring, then went to the rocks outside the courtyard, looking at the sun rising above the sea surface, watching the sun slowly ascend from the watery horizon, as if hope was gradually descending upon the world. Light, in the end, will break through the darkness!

Lei Fengqi came to Wuyou Island and found Dugu Qianye standing outside.

"Why are you here?" Lei Fengqi demanded.

"I was waiting for you," Dugu Qianye answered.

"You knew I was coming?"

"I did."

Xie Ping had told her that he had found out about today’s great ritual of Shen Xingzong requiring two girls as sacrifices, and she was one of them!

So how could today’s great ritual possibly go ahead without her? Lei Fengqi was bound to come and fetch her.

"What about Xiaojiu and the others? How did they let you out?"

"They’re inside preparing breakfast for the others. I said I wanted to see the sea sunrise, and they let me come out," said Dugu Qianye. "They know that with the students from Mors Empire in Holy Sea City, there’s no way I could escape."

"Hmm, you’ve got some sense," remarked Lei Fengqi.

"What, isn’t Hall Master Lei in a hurry?" Dugu Qianye asked. "I would like to see my classmates again before the trial."

Lei Fengqi looked at Dugu Qianye, feeling that the island was a bit strange today and a sense of unease surged in his heart. However, pressed for time, he didn’t dwell on it and took Dugu Qianye with him, flying toward Holy Sea City.
