The group led by Xiao Chen clashed fiercely with the cultivators of the Night Ghosts Pavilion that Mo Xie had left behind to cover their retreat. Because of these people, Xiao Chen could only watch as Mo Xie escaped.
Perhaps it was because they knew that there was no way out, but with two Saints leading them, the cultivators of the Night Ghost Pavilion who had stayed behind to cover the retreat were all fearless.
Xiao Chen knew very well what would happen to these people. From the moment they stayed behind to cover the retreat, they were already dead. However, Xiao Chen was not happy about it at all, because the most important thing was that Mo Xie had escaped.
He hadn't expected Mo Xie to be so decisive. Of course, this could also be said to be because Xiao Chen had underestimated Mo Xie. As the first Holy Son of the Night Ghost Pavilion, Mo Xie could be said to be the best in all aspects, including his temperament.
Therefore, after discovering Xiao Chen's plan, Mo Xie immediately made the right choice and minimized the losses of the Night Ghost Pavilion.
Just think about it, if Mo Xie hadn't done so, or if Mo Xie had been angered by Xiao Chen's provocation, then what awaited him would have been complete annihilation.
At that time, not only would Mo Xie die, but the other two Holy Sons of the Night Ghost Pavilion, the 23 Saints, and the numerous Half-Saints and Dao Emperors would all die here.
Unfortunately, Mo Xie was very calm. As a result, even though there would be casualties, the price would be much lower. At most, they would lose two Saints, a few Half-Saints, and Dao Emperors and Dao Kings.
Even though the loss of two Saints was enough to make the Night Ghost Pavilion feel the pinch for a while, compared to being completely annihilated, this was the best result.
He had still underestimated Mo Xie. This fellow was indeed very decisive.
Seeing that he couldn't catch up to Mo Xie, Xiao Chen didn't dare to rashly lead his men into the depths of the Night Ghost Pavilion. If they were ambushed by Mo Xie along the way, then they would go for wool and come home shorn.
Xiao Chen decided to get rid of the people who stayed behind to cover the retreat first. With this thought in mind, he immediately changed his strategy and decided to take down these people first. After all, two Saints were not a small gain.
Everyone fought fiercely and the battle broke out. After a short few minutes, the Sacred Palace reinforcements led by Randeng finally arrived. Seeing that the battle had broken out, Randeng did not waste any time and directly ordered everyone to attack.
With the help of the Sacred Palace reinforcements, the experts from the Night Ghost Pavilion who had stayed behind to cover the retreat were naturally unable to resist. It didn't take long for them to be slaughtered, including the two Saints from the Night Ghost Pavilion.
After killing this group of people, Xiao Chen went to Randeng and told him what had happened. Hearing this, Randeng gave the order for everyone to go to Hao Feng City. They wanted to kill all the people from the Night Ghost Pavilion.
Without any hesitation, the Sacred Palace group headed straight for Great Summit City. At the same time, the inter-realm transportation array in the city lord's manor had already been activated, and the Night Ghost Pavilion experts immediately returned to the Night Ghost Pavilion through the inter-realm transportation array.
Fortunately, the inter-realm transportation array existed. Otherwise, none of Mo Xie's group would have been able to escape.
They were the last to enter the transportation array. Before entering, Mo Xie turned to look in the direction of the spirit vein city. His eyes were filled with unwillingness and coldness as he said coldly.
"Xiao Chen, we still don't know who will win. Next time, I'll kill you with my own hands."
With that, Mo Xie turned around and walked into the transportation array.
After Mo Xie and the people from the Night Ghost Pavilion successfully escaped through the inter-realm transportation array, the Sacred Palace group arrived at Great Summit City in less than ten minutes.
Outside the city, they saw many human corpses. It was easy to imagine that these were the humans killed by the Night Ghost Pavilion and the Ghost King Sect after they took down Great Summit City.
Such was the situation in the North Star Realm. Those who were not of the same race were bound to have different intentions. Any race would be cruel and merciless when faced with an outsider. Therefore, massacres like what the Night Ghost Pavilion had done were not rare in the history of the North Star Realm.
A trace of sorrow flashed across Xiao Chen's eyes, but he did not say anything. Under Randeng's orders, the group marched into Great Summit City.
However, the strange thing was that after entering Great Summit City, the Sacred Palace group did not encounter any attacks or resistance. This puzzled everyone. Had the people from the Night Ghost Pavilion given up? Or did they not return to Great Summit City?
Everyone had the same question in their hearts, but it was soon answered. In the backyard of the city lord's manor, Xiao Chen and the others found the inter-realm transportation array.
Randeng, Xiao Chen, Tian Yue, Chen Yu, Emperor Qing and the others stood in front of the transportation array and looked at it. Xiao Chen said indifferently.
"No wonder the Night Ghost Pavilion dared to enter so boldly alone. So this is what they are relying on."
Xiao Chen did not know that the Night Ghost Pavilion had built an inter-realm transportation array here. If he had known, he would not have thought that he could kill Mo Xie and the others.
After all, with the existence of such an inter-realm transportation array, it was impossible to kill Mo Xie and the others.
Xiao Chen sighed softly. In the end, Mo Xie had escaped. However, there was no point in saying anything else now.
Moreover, even though Mo Xie and most of the Night Ghost Pavilion's experts had managed to escape, the Sacred Palace hadn't come out empty-handed. At the very least, they'd killed two Saints and five Half-Saints from the Night Ghost Pavilion. As for the Dao Emperor and Dao King Realm experts, there were more than twenty of them.
This could be considered as some interest.
They knew where the inter-realm transportation array led to, and it did not seem to have been destroyed. However, Xiao Chen and the others could not directly use the inter-realm transportation array to attack the Night Ghost Pavilion's headquarters. That would be suicide.
After searching around Vast Summit City, he discovered that the entire Vast Summit City had completely turned into a dead city.
With the destruction of the Ghost King Sect and the retreat of the Night Ghost Pavilion, there was not a single living person left in Great Summit City. Only corpses were left.
Xiao Chen sighed softly and went to the main hall of the City Lord's Estate. Dipankara sat at the head of the table while Xiao Chen and Tian Yue took the first seats on his left and right. As for the others, they sat in order.
Dipankara looked around at the crowd and said indifferently, "Destroy the inter-realm transportation array. In addition, gather all the corpses in Great Summit City and bury them."
Dipankara could not bear to see the massacre of Great Summit City and the deaths of countless humans, but there was nothing he could do. The only thing he could do was bury these people.
Hearing Randeng's words, everyone nodded and began to deal with the aftermath. Now that the Night Ghost Pavilion had retreated, the crisis of the Bai Mo Continent had been resolved. After dealing with the aftermath, they could continue to mine the supreme grade spirit vein.
