Watching Zheng Wentian leave with Immortal Zi Yang, Ying Lui's body seemed to hunch even more. He thought about how Zhou Bai had run away from the Sky Demon, Qian Wangsun had gone missing, Zheng Wentian had been captured, and Zuo Dao had been sent to the Celestial Court.
At this moment, Ying Lui felt that the entire Three Pure Daoist Sect, and even all the mortals in the four major cities, had turned gloomy and hopeless.
Yun Chonghe walked up and helped Ying Lui up. Ying Lui sighed as he recalled the conversation he had with Yun Chonghe before Zhou Bai left.
…
"Yun Chonghe! What are you doing? Wake up Elder Heaven Sword! Stop Zhou Bai! "
Yun Chonghe shook his head and said with a serious expression, "Ying Lui, Zhou Bai has already surrendered to the Sky Demon. He might even be the one who caused the Sky Demon to attack the city."
"Wake up. Even if we capture him now, we can't change the fact that he has surrendered to the Sky Demon."
"But … at least … at least if we capture him, we might be able to turn him over a new leaf …"
Yun Chonghe looked at Ying Lui and said, "Wake up. He wants to surrender to the Sky Demon. He killed billions of our people, occupied our land, and will fight us to the death for the Sky Demon. Even if we capture him, he will be executed."
Yun Chonghe sighed. "I want to capture him too. I want to interrogate him about why he betrayed the human race and surrendered to the Sky Demon … but Elder Heaven Sword's last bit of power cannot be used here."
"Ying Lui, think about it carefully. From today on, the mortals and Dong Hua Dao School will be in dire straits. They need Elder Heaven Sword's power even more."
"Elder Heaven Sword's power must be used at the most critical moment."
…
Ying Luo sighed, "Yun Chonghe, you're right. It would have been useless even if we had captured Zhou Bai. But I … I just can't understand … "His eyes were slightly red as he said," Why, why did Zhou Bai do this? "
He recalled the huge price that Dong Hua Dao School had paid to nurture Zhou Bai with all their might. Zhao Shouyi had been sacrificed, the many elders had sacrificed their own blood essence, and the various supernatural food that they had saved up for Zhou Bai …
He recalled Zhou Bai's sacrifice to fight against the Sky Demon.
He couldn't understand why Zhou Bai would betray them. Why would he join the Sky Demon that they hated the most?
At this moment, there was a commotion coming from outside the courtyard.
Some people were shouting and yelling in the direction of the courtyard, while others were whispering to each other. They were either angry or disgusted as they looked in the direction of the courtyard.
"People of Dong Hua Dao School, come out! You've already experienced the infiltration of the Extraterrestrial Demons before! Why did you bring people to Central City? "
"What are the cultivators of Dong Hua Dao School doing? How could they nurture a scumbag like Zhou Bai! "
"They probably didn't pay much attention to Zhou Bai's thoughts. They only saw his talent. There are too many irresponsible cultivators who only care about strength."
"My useless teacher has groomed yet another lunatic. This time, the Sky Demon caused tens of thousands of casualties in Central City! You have to take responsibility! "
"Shouldn't the teachers of Dong Hua Dao School resign? Shouldn't they commit suicide? Why are Heaven still protecting them? "
…
Everyone in the courtyard looked at each other. Zhu Lingwei clenched her fists, but she couldn't say a word.
Ying Luo's gaze shifted as he slowly walked out of the door.
Yun Chonghe pressed his shoulder and said, "What are you trying to do? They're all angry now. Whatever you say won't change anything … "
Ying Luo looked at Yun Chonghe and said slowly, "But it's true that we didn't do a good job. Zhou Bai was taught by us. We nurtured him and brought him to the Daluo Heaven's sparring session. He has made a huge mistake, and I'm responsible for it. "
"At the very least, I should apologize to them."
Yun Chonghe loosened his grip and looked at Ying Luo's back. He sighed and said, "Everyone else, stay inside and don't come out." Then, he followed Ying Luo.
As the door of the courtyard opened, the commotion outside quieted down. Ying Luo looked at the crowd outside and bowed. "I'm … I'm sorry. We didn't teach Zhou Bai well …"
The crowd immediately became noisy. A middle-aged woman cried and shouted, "What's the point of apologizing? My son has been crippled. He can no longer cultivate. His life is ruined just like that. I will never forgive you for my entire life! "
"It's all your fault! You taught a scumbag like Zhou Bai! If only you had discovered his problem earlier! How could so many people have died! "
"My father was surrounded by more than 30 Sky Demon when he tried to save people. He died without a complete corpse! Do you know how many people Zhou Bai has killed? "
"Something happened in Dong Hua City before, right? Who knows if there are other traitors in your city who have sided with the Sky Demon! All of you should be locked up! "
"Their former principal's granddaughter is a mutant, and she has also sided with the Sky Demon! There's something wrong with the entire Dong Hua Dao School. I think everyone in the school is scumbags! "
"Even the Emperor's Sword was stolen by him!"
"What's the point of apologizing? You have to compensate! Dong Hua Dao School has to compensate us! "
Facing the surging crowd, Ying Luo lowered his head and said with a sad expression, "I'm sorry … I'm really sorry … I don't know … why Zhou Bai did this …"
Seeing that the crowd was getting more and more agitated, and some cultivators even began to unleash their Primordial Spirit, Yun Chonghe immediately dragged Ying Luo and retreated. The cultivators from the Heaven Division also began to disperse the crowd.
As the gate closed, the noisy crowd did not disperse so quickly.
Ying Luo sat on the ground in pain. Covering his face, he said sadly, "Why … why did this happen …"
Yun Chonghe saw the black Primordial Spirit emitting from Ying Luo's body. He quickly pressed his shoulder and said, "Ying Luo! Pull yourself together! Zhou Bai's betrayal is his problem. He is ungrateful and betrayed his race. Don't blame yourself too much … "
Ying Luo said blankly, "But we trained him … I have always supported him … I have always suggested that the school cooperate with all his cultivation plans …"
Ying Luo fiercely pinched his own hair, "I have cultivated a devil..."
On a tall building not far from the courtyard, True Lord Zi Yang looked at the crowd in the distance and said impatiently, "Boring conflict. Why don't you just put pressure on Dong Hua City? Why do you have to do this? "
Li Zhengdao smiled and said, "Using people to control people has always been the strategy of the Celestial Court. I just gave all the mortals a platform to communicate with each other. This time, we can completely break up the tacit understanding and unity of the four factions.
"Also … I also want to take this opportunity to put pressure on Jiao Jiao and subdue her. After all, her mutant ability … Tsk tsk, even I don't want to fight with her. "
Li Zhengdao couldn't help but frown at the mention of Jiao Jiao. Unlike Taoist spells and martial arts, which were traceable and reasonable, even though the immortals and gods had studied mutants for a long time, they could only make mutant weapons from mutants. As for the abilities of the mutants themselves, it was simply impossible to explain.
However, the more powerful the mutant, the more powerful the mutant could be.
Thinking of Jiao Jiao's ability, Li Zhengdao frowned but also yearned for it. This internal conflict and pressure among humans was a good opportunity.
True Lord Zi Yang was not interested in this. His mind was filled with Zhou Bai. He turned around and flew into the sky, disappearing into the horizon.
Looking at the direction in which True Lord Zi Yang left, Li Zhengdao's eyes revealed a strange look. An immortal-level mutant is even rarer than Jiao Jiao …
