Chen Luoyang's words roused the spirits of the Devil religion members in the hall.
Wang Fei losing face was his own problem, but Devil religion as a whole had lost face, so they needed to get it back.
Chen Luoyang's gaze fell on Xiao Yuntian: "What about the information I asked you to find?"
"Most of it has been reported, but there are still a few that are being sorted out." Xiao Yuntian handed over a jade slip.
Although the raging underground fire under Devil religion's HQ had already calmed down, the Zhu Rong Burning Sky Array couldn't recover for a while, so it could only be barely maintained.
The HQ no longer had the geographical advantage to defend it.
Seeing that his Hierarch had made up his mind, Xiao Yuntian didn't try to persuade him anymore, but did his best to cooperate.
Chen Luoyang opened the jade slip, checked it for a moment, then put it away and threw it back. Xiao Yuntian hurriedly caught it.
"Su Ye, Mingjing, Third Elder, Seventh Elder, and Xuanming, where are they right now?" Chen Luoyang asked.
Xiao Yuntian reported: "Elder Mingjing, Jiaozhou branch Enforcer Li, and Seventh Elder are currently on the way back to the HQ. Third Elder and Su Ye's whereabouts are still unknown."
Su Wei was a bit embarrassed: "Please forgive me, Hierarch. That brat should be back soon."
"Yuntian, Wang Fei, Guang Yuan, stay behind and assist Great Elder in protecting the HQ." Chen Luoyang walked down the stairs step by step: "The rest of you, follow me. Tell Su Ye and Third Elder to come directly to me."
Wang Fei's eyes lit up: "Senior apprentice-brother …"
Chen Luoyang expressionlessly turned his head to look at him.
Wang Fei immediately became listless.
Chen Luoyang calmly walked past the crowd and led the way out of the hall.
The Devil religion members behind him hurriedly responded in unison, then followed behind the Hierarch.
Jingang hurriedly went to prepare the frame.
Su Wei, Fourth Elder Chai Han, Lao Shou, Zhang Tianheng, and Lin Dongyi, along with their respective Devil religion disciples, boarded the Six-Dragon Emperor Carriage together with their Hierarch.
The six Flood Dragons roared and soared again.
In a corner of the palaces on the Ancient God Peak, a huge palace suddenly rose into the sky. It was carried by six flood dragons and flew away from the Ancient God Peak, heading into the distance.
Wang Fei's face was filled with envy and reluctance as he watched the Six Dragons Royal Chariot fly into the sky.
"Let's go," Nie Guangyuan, who was beside him, said lightly.
Wang Fei retracted his gaze resentfully and glared fiercely at Nie Guangyuan. "Don't try to act like I'm the leader. It's obvious that Senior Brother doesn't really blame me. Today, you're a fox pretending to be a tiger. Once I get through this, I'll skin you alive!"
Nie Guangyuan was unmoved. "Why don't you give it a try?"
Wang Fei's eyes were like copper bells as he stared at the thin youth in front of him.
Nie Guangyuan smiled and turned around, returning to his White Tiger Hall.
Wang Fei gritted his teeth and followed.
…
In a cell in the White Tiger Hall, a weak youth fell to the ground.
There were no torture tools on his body, and there were no obvious bloodstains or scars.
However, his whole body was like a broken doll. His essence, qi, and spirit were all gone, as if he could collapse at any time.
Only the occasional flash of light in his eyes showed that he was still clenching his teeth.
His right hand had been broken for some time, but the wound was still dripping with blood.
It hadn't been cut off by the Devil religion disciples through torture, but by the youth himself.
The youth let out a long sigh and raised his head with some difficulty, revealing a pale face.
It was the Sword King's last disciple, "Intellectual Sword" Shi Jing.
In retrospect, no one would have thought that the dignified Mister Fifth of the Sword Pavilion, the most famous young hero of the Divine Land, would be reduced to such a state.
However, Shi Jing could only grit his teeth and persevere.
After the Devil Emperor's carriage had returned to the Ancient God Peak, he had been transferred to the White Tiger Hall.
His days were even worse than when he was imprisoned on the Six Dragons Emperor Carriage.
Shi Jing had persevered almost entirely with his willpower, to the point where he was almost numb.
The scenes of Second Senior Brother Xiang Ping and Third Senior Brother Nie Hua's deaths had become an eternal picture in his mind.
Occasionally, he would think of Fourth Senior Brother Jie Xingmang, who was seriously injured and unconscious.
These did not break him down. Instead, they became his motivation to persevere.
"I must persevere. I must avenge Second Senior Brother and Third Senior Brother. I must save Fourth Senior Brother from danger …"
Shi Jing gritted his teeth and persevered.
However, today, he felt that something was wrong.
His vision turned black, and he gradually lost consciousness.
When he woke up again, he found himself in an unfamiliar place.
His mind, which had been almost single-track, began to spin again with a flash of inspiration.
After carefully observing for a moment, Shi Jing found that he seemed to be no longer in the White Tiger Hall, but somewhere else.
He struggled to stand up, walked to the window, and looked out. Then, he found that he seemed to be in a residence.
Shi Jing was surprised.
The first thought in his mind was: A trap?
The Devil religion's sorcerer was using both the carrot and the stick, trying to pull him back and forth to wear down his wariness?
Shi Jing was bewildered, but in the blink of an eye, he made up his mind again. For the time being, he would give it a try. The result would not be worse than now. He would raise his vigilance and keep his guard up against everyone.
However, he was still not sure if he was still on the Ancient God Peak, or if he was already at the foot of the mountain.
As the headquarters of the Devil religion, the Ancient God Peak also had areas for the family members of the religion to live and move around.
If he was still within the range of the Devil religion's headquarters, it would not be easy to escape completely … Shi Jing pondered in his heart.
He suspected that someone was secretly watching his every move.
However, he did not know what the other party's intentions were, or whether they were friend or foe.
The person who had the ability to rescue him from the White Tiger Hall's prison was definitely one of the top figures in the Devil religion.
Was the other party playing hard to get, or had he really betrayed the Devil religion?
This was a rare opportunity. Shi Jing took a deep breath and gently pushed the door open.
His premonition was right, but also wrong.
Someone had indeed helped him.
However, there was no one secretly watching him.
The person who helped him was extremely careful and did not intend to have any contact with him.
He only arranged a lot of things in advance.
As for whether Shi Jing could successfully escape in the end, it would depend on his luck.
In the quiet room, after the sunlight shone in through the window, it formed a dark shadow in the corner of the room.
In the shadow, a person sat in Silence.
"An ant's hole has appeared in the embankment of a thousand miles. It's time, and I can't wait any longer."
…
In another place.
"Previously, we finally overturned the headquarters of the Devil religion with great difficulty, but unfortunately, it was all for naught."
The person who spoke had a treacherous voice, like a eunuch. "Now that the Devil Emperor has left the Ancient God Peak again, I wonder if there is still a chance?"
Opposite the eunuch stood a person with a huge mask on his face. His voice was calm and indifferent. "If you can provide another Two Extremes Heavenly Stone, we can try again."
The eunuch shook his head. "Only one."
The person wearing the mask said, "Then there is no other way. We need a treasure like the Two Extremes Heavenly Stone to delay the effect. Otherwise, even if we can detonate the underground fire, I will be the first to suffer because I am the closest."
The eunuch sighed. "What a pity, what a pity."
"There is nothing to feel pity about. At least for the time being, the Zhu Rong Burning Sky Array can no longer be relied on." The person wearing the mask said, "An ant's hole can cause a collapse in the embankment of a thousand miles. I have already made a crack in this embankment, and the rest is up to everyone."
