In the blink of an eye, the several-hundred-zhang hole blasted open by the three cultivators' self-detonated Golden Cores was filled by demon birds surging forward, one wave falling only for the next to press on.
The Silver Fish-Birds had no idea what fear was.
Lin Xuan's expression changed slightly as well. They were numerous, and they feared no death. The terror of this Spirit World Beast Tide far exceeded what he had imagined.
"Uncle An, how could you..."
"Eldest Miss, troubled times call for heavy laws. At a time like this, people's hearts are in chaos. If we cannot use thunderbolt methods to awe those harboring evil intentions, the consequences will be unthinkable."
"Oh!"
Red Leaf Fairy nodded and did not pursue the matter. Although Uncle An's method just now had been somewhat improper, in terms of reasoning, it could still be justified.
Lin Xuan, however, frowned slightly. This old fellow surnamed An was Red Leaf's trusted aide, and he knew Lin Xuan's identity perfectly well. The two of them had also had some contact in private.
Before, Lin Xuan had not felt there was anything wrong, but when this man had acted so viciously and ruthlessly just now, Lin Xuan had sensed from him...
Yet when he turned his head, that strange feeling vanished again.
Could it be that suspicion truly bred dark ghosts in the heart, and everything had merely been his own misconception?
But no matter what, Elder An's action had indeed produced an excellent deterrent effect. Having witnessed the fate of the three fleeing cultivators, everyone felt chilled to the extreme, but no one dared leave on their own again.
Boom!
Explosive sounds entered their ears. The Crystal Might Cannons were still roaring without cease, their power enough to make one click their tongue in astonishment.
