Shock, Conflict
" Of the Five Hundred Direct Disciples of the Yuan Sect, none survived. We can now retire gracefully after achieving our goal."
The Azure Giant Dragon swooped down and transformed into a slender human figure, landing on the spot.
"However, given the heavy losses suffered by the Yuan Sect in this Sect Competition, the Three Great Yuan Gate Giants will certainly not let this matter go. Our journey back to the Demon City is probably not safe."
Ying Xiaoxiao and the others swarmed around, feeling both excited and worried, as the title of the leader of the eight great Yuan Sect was still too heavy a burden.
"It's alright. I have already informed the Sect Master about this matter using a secret method. The Sect Master has already led the sect's experts to the Demon City in secret, ready to support us at any time. This time, my Dao Sect will have a good showdown with the Yuan Sect."
Lin Dong smiled confidently.
"Father has arrived? That's wonderful!"
Ying Huanhuan smiled broadly, and Qing Ye, Mu Li, and the others were also overjoyed.
"Okay, let's go, let's wait at the Teleportation Array."
Lin Dong's gaze swept across the world, startling the various sects watching the battle around him, who all took a step back. Only the beautiful figure standing on a Green Lotus in the direction of the Nine Heavens Supreme Pure Palace nodded slightly to him.
A warm glint flashed in Lin Dong's eyes. He smiled and returned the greeting, then led the three hundred disciples of the Dao Sect and quickly disappeared into the desolate, rubble-strewn area.
The Teleportation Array in the central area of Demon Region that connects to the Otherworldly Demon City will not open for another three days. Before that, all sects and forces must wait quietly here.
Demon City.
The frantic exchange of messages from disciples of the Major Top Super Sects instantly set this largest city in the Demon Region ablaze.
What?! The entire Yuan Sect's participating disciples were wiped out? The one who made the move was the Dao Sect? The Dao Sect's Chief Seat Lin Dong, shone brightly, suppressing the Yuan Gate Three Little Kings single-handedly? And annihilating over a hundred Yuan Sect disciples with a single blow?
The name of the Dao Sect Lin Dong undoubtedly resounded throughout the entire Eastern Xuan Region.
These shocking news spread rapidly throughout the Demon City, prompting the Eight Great Super Sects, which ranked first among the many sects in the Eastern Xuan Region, to mobilize: Yuan Sect, Dao Sect, Primeval Desolation Hall, Sword Sect, Talisman Valley...
The most vehement reactions undoubtedly came from the two sects involved, Yuan Sect and Dao Sect. The entire city was like a volcano poised to erupt, with everyone waiting for the day the Teleportation Array would be activated in a few days.
Where will the situation lead then? Is a major war truly inevitable?
In the tense atmosphere of impending doom, the Teleportation Array, which had been closed for a month, finally opened slowly.
Ghost Blade Sect, Fire Cloud Sect, Divine Sect, Hongya Cave, Myriad Puppet Sect...
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, one after another, teams from renowned Super Sect in the Eastern Xuan Region emerged from the Teleportation Array in the center of the Teleportation Demon City, but there was no one from the Dao Sect.
An hour later, the figures emerging from the Teleportation Array had become increasingly sparse.
"Damn it, why haven't the Dao Sect's troops shown up yet? Are they scared? Are they hiding deep within the Demon Region and too afraid to come out!"
"Hmph, I don't believe they can hide inside forever."
"No, they are definitely stalling for time. We must not let our guard down."
In the northern part of the Demon City, dozens of powerful figures wearing Yuan Sect badges stared intently at the Teleportation Array in the center of the city with grim expressions.
"Gentlemen, it is unrealistic to keep all three hundred disciples of the Dao Sect alive. The Dao Sect would probably go to war with our Yuan Sect at all costs. So we will only punish the ringleaders. The Sect Master has already issued a decree, ordering us to capture Lin Dong, the Chief Seat of the Dao Sect, and bring him back to the sect for questioning."
The Yuan Sect has six powerful leaders leading the team this time. These are the Six Division Chiefs corresponding to the six participating Spirit General. Their strength is similar to that of the Four Halls of the Dao Sect, and all of them are at the Life Mysterious Stage, Great Achievement.
The speaker was Liu You, the Department Head of the Yaksa Division and the leader of the Yuan Sect Competition, as well as the head of the Six Great Division Chiefs.
"Only punishing the ringleaders? That's all we can do. They're getting off too easy!"
Upon hearing this, an elderly man in gray robes with a gloomy face snorted. Hearing that it was an order from the Sect Master, he had no choice but to give up. This was Shi Dong, the Department Head the Gandharva Division.
In another corner of the city, many powerful figures from the Dao Sect were also on high alert.
"Those six old dogs from the Yuan Sect will definitely target our Dao Sect team later, and they are very likely to focus on Lin Dong. We must be very careful."
Qi Lei, the Heaven Hall Master, said with a solemn expression.
"What's there to be afraid of? The Sect Master have already... at worst, we can just fight it out." Chen Zhen stroked his beard, his voice gradually becoming inaudible.
Just as the crowd thinned out and the Teleportation Array gradually stopped operating, a dazzling burst of light suddenly erupted from within, and more than three hundred figures dressed in identical sect attire quickly appeared in this world.
The Dao Sect team makes their grand finale appearance!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The moment the Dao Sect team appeared unharmed at the Teleportation Array, a powerful figure with Six Paths auras fully unleashed rushed aggressively towards the center of the city.
"Where is Lin Dong of the Dao Sect? Today, our Yuan Sect will only punish the ringleader!"
"By order of the Sect Master, capture the culprit Lin Dong and bring him back to the sect for punishment. All unrelated persons, get out of the way!"
"Yuan Sect is handling this matter; everyone disperse!"
At the same time, a series of loud shouts echoed across the sky above the Demon City.
The Six Great Division Chiefs of the Yuan Sect have made their move!
"Hahaha, ringleader? Ringleader my ass! Get the hell out of here!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a surge of immense Origin Energy swept out, and four powerful beings whose auras were in no way inferior to those of the Six Great Sects members of the Yuan Sect rushed forward with lightning speed.
A great war is about to break out!
"Senior Sister Xiaoxiao, proceed according to the original plan. You should evacuate immediately to avoid unnecessary casualties."
At the eye of the storm, surrounded by many Dao Sect True Disciples, Lin Dong calmly gave his instructions.
"Alright, Junior Brother Lin Dong, you must be extremely careful."
Ying Xiaoxiao knew this was not the time for sentimentality, so she simply nodded solemnly and led the Dao Sect team down to the Dao Sect's encampment, where dozens of the Dao Sect deacons were still guarding the area.
The Six Great Division Chiefs of the Yuan Sect, who had come with great momentum, were unmoved by the Dao Sect's attempt to "escape" and headed straight for the young man in black.
On a street in the Demon City, two figures stood side by side. One was as strong as a tower, and the other was as handsome as a demon. Both had a unique and unforgettable aura.
"You're courting death! Six mere Life Mysterious Stage, Great Achievement experts dare to touch my brothers, Lin Diao! I'll unleash a massacre before I return to the Demon Domain!"
The speaker was a handsome young man, whose extremely obscure aura had subtly surpassed the Life and Death Mysterious Stage and reached the terrifying realm of touching the Samsara Stage.
"Second Brother, let's attack together!"
The burly man with dark skin clenched his fist fiercely; he was also a powerful expert who had already stepped into the Life Mysterious Stage.
"Buzz!"
Just as the two were about to attack each other from a distance, a faint glimmer of Ghostly glow flashed between their brows, subtly conveying some message:
Don't make a move. I'll handle these old dogs myself. Give them a good beating. The Three Great Sect Masters of Yuan Gate are likely nearby. Little Marten's identity is sensitive; be careful to conceal your presence.
