Xiao Yang didn't dare advance any further. He simply stood there, playing the part of a dumb zombie. However, his eyes and consciousness would sweep over the area from time to time to investigate the situation.
The four martial ancestors were floating in the air. One of them, the Wu Zun, was wearing the Poison Sect's special robes. He was most likely the sect head. The other Poison Sovereign was completely black. He didn't have a body, only a ball of black mist. He was probably the leader of the otherworldly creatures.
There were also two Wu Zun's a little further away. They seemed to be watching from the sidelines, not intending to take action. One was a savage beast, while the other was half-human, half-yao.
Xiao Yang guessed that the savage beast Wu Zun was the Wu Zun he'd sensed in the canyon. He was probably the leader of the beast race. As for the half-human, half-yao Wu Zun, he was probably the leader of the fiend realm.
Judging from their positions and hostility, the explosion just now was the result of the two Wu Zun's fighting.
"It's best if I leave first."
Xiao Yang thought to himself, then retreated the way he'd come.
He knew his limits. A battle of this level wasn't something he could participate in.
As long as the four Wu Zun's maintained a stalemate, it wouldn't be a problem for him to get through the night safely.
As he slowly made his way back, Xiao Yang's divine sense caught sight of three familiar figures. They were the three pavilion elders he'd parted with from Flame City: Pavilion Elder Lei, Pavilion Elder Jiange, and Pavilion Elder Fo.
Why were they here? Judging from their states, they seemed to be injured.
Xiao Yang silently approached them, playing the part of a zombie the entire time. Before he knew it, he'd reached them and asked softly, "Why are you three here? What the hell is going on here? "
Hiss, hiss, hiss.
Xiao Yang's sudden question startled them. They couldn't help but suck in a cold breath, instinctively going on guard.
When they saw that it was Xiao Yang, they all sighed in relief. At the same time, their faces were filled with astonishment and confusion.
They asked in return, "Xiao Yang? Why are you here? Didn't you go to the Poison Sect? Why did you come to this damned place? "
Yes, they loathed it, and felt it to the extreme.
Xiao Yang said slowly, "This is not the place to talk. Come, I'll take you to a place."
He led the three Pavilion Elders back to the courtyard they had been in before.
The three pavilion elders did not suspect anything. When they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, with their knowledge and experience, they immediately knew how strict and terrifying the defenses were. Even they would not be able to easily enter the courtyard without permission. This was presumably Xiao Yang's doing. After all, they had seen Xiao Yang's attainments in formations before.
"Come in."
Xiao Yang opened the door and invited them in.
He was the one who had set up the formations, so he was naturally very familiar with the safe routes in and out.
Soon, the four of them entered the courtyard. Li Qinghe, Gu Shanqing, and the others heard the commotion and walked out. Hence, they met each other.
"Three Pavilion Elders, why are you here too?"
"Greetings to the three pavilion elders."
Chen Zhifu, Gu Shanhe, and the others hurriedly bowed to the three pavilion elders.
The three pavilion elders waved their hands, indicating that there was no need for formalities.
Greetings were unavoidable when they met.
After listening to Gu Shanhe, Chen Zhifu, and the others, the three pavilion elders understood what had happened to Xiao Yang's group. So it was that bastard Zhou Zhengxing's doing.
The three pavilion elders were filled with righteous indignation. Fury was written all over their faces as they burned with rage.
"Hmph, that bastard Zhou Zhengxing dared to harm the foundation of our Poison Sect just because he has some power. He's simply destroying our Poison Sect's hope. His motives are punishable by death."
"When we return, we won't let him off easily."
"This person has long been ambitious. The Zhou Clan won't give up on killing me."
Gu Shanhe and the others sighed in relief, feeling gratified and satisfied. At least the three pavilion elders were reasonable.
Even if the three pavilion elders didn't touch Zhou Zhengxing, they wouldn't have let him off so easily. However, with their help, they didn't have to worry too much.
Chen Zhifu stepped forward and declared righteously, "Esteemed pavilion elders, as long as you think Zhou Zhengxing should be punished, we'll do it ourselves."
They were angry at Zhou Zhengxing for scheming against them. Naturally, they wanted to take revenge with their own hands.
The three pavilion elders naturally understood their thoughts and promised, "Don't worry, we'll be your backers. Feel free to make a move on him. If there's any trouble, come find us."
This made Lan Jiaoye and the others even happier.
After exchanging pleasantries, Xiao Yang asked them, "Why are you here?"
Elder Fo sighed and said slowly, "Isn't it for the mission?"
Judging from their expressions, the mission didn't seem to be going well. Xiao Yang couldn't help but frown and ask, "I wonder if you've completed the mission? Or if you need help, you can give us a call. "
Anyway, they had a lot of people, and they were all gathered here. If the mission wasn't difficult, they would help if they could. He believed that Chen Zhifu, Gu Shanhe, Gu Shanqing, and the others would be happy to help because this was a chance to leave a good impression.
Elder Lei said worriedly, "It's difficult. Even we can't complete it, let alone you."
Elder Jiange's red lips parted slightly and said, "Let's wait first. It's hard to say."
Rumble.
Rumble.
Rumble. Rumble. Rumble. The sound was as loud as thunder. Following the rumble, they all felt the ground shake violently.
It was very clear that a fierce battle must have taken place somewhere in Chaos City, resulting in a series of explosions. The powerful shockwaves swept across the city like a hurricane, and even Xiao Yang and the others could feel the intense battle intent in those shockwaves.
Lan Jiaoye, Gu Qianqian, and the others were a little frightened. Their faces were pale. They didn't know what had happened. The unknown was often the most frightening thing.
Elder Jiange comforted them gently, "Don't worry. Don't be afraid. This is the sect master fighting with the leader of the otherworldly item. They are both Wu Zun, so it's a big commotion."
Chen Zhifu, Li Qinghe, and the others were shocked. The sect master of the Poison Sect was actually here. This was a sect master, and also a mighty figure like Wu Zun.
Something unimaginable must have happened in Chaos City.
Xiao Yang's face was filled with confusion as he asked, "May I ask why the three Pavilion Elders are fighting?"
Elder Lei slowly explained, "A single Wu Zun is in charge of a place. It's normal for there to be conflicts between different places."
Xiao Yang and the others didn't quite understand, but they didn't dare to ask further. After all, this was a matter on the level of the Poison Sect Master, Wu Zun.
Everyone fell silent and waited in silence.
Time passed in the blink of an eye. After a few hours, the rumbling gradually stopped.
