The ground looked as though it had been plowed, crisscrossed with furrows.
Zhao Shou gazed at the Demon Bee corpses strewn across the ground and let out a long breath of relief. Smiling, he praised, "Fairy Ye, it was fortunate that you set up a Formation to fight the enemy. Otherwise, even if we could have wiped out these Black Flame Bees, it would have taken quite some effort."
After spending the past few days together, Zhao Shou had truly come to appreciate Ye Haitang's capabilities. She was proficient in formations, "Daoist Zhao, you are too modest. With your strength, even without my help, these Black Flame Bees would not have been your match."
Ye Haitang's tone was cool, carrying an air that kept others a thousand miles away.
Her brow furrowed as she took out a pale azure pearl. The pearl flickered incessantly, radiating a blinding green light.
"The Sensing Pearl has reacted. My clansmen have arrived."
A rare look of delight appeared on Ye Haitang's face. Had Zhao Shou not been present, she would have immediately gone to join her clansmen.
Zhao Shou frowned. This was hardly good news. His cooperation with Ye Haitang had only been temporary. According to their agreement, cultivators from Ten Thousand Beasts Island would arrive here one after another. He had not expected Wang Family cultivators to beat them here first.
Where had his fellow disciples gone? Why had they not arrived even now?
Ye Haitang glanced at Zhao Shou. After a brief hesitation, she said, "Daoist Zhao, my clansmen have arrived. Do you still wish to cooperate with me?"
Though Wang Changsheng had ties with Gongsun Yang, when it came to a Ten Thousand Year Spirit Herb, Zhao Shou would not yield it to Ye Haitang, nor would Ye Haitang yield it
