It had to be said that Ling Tian had shown considerable restraint in his actions. At the very least, aside from fighting through the blockade, he had killed hardly any Outer Realm Cultivators. By now, many Outer Realm Cultivators even knew that the cultivators captured earlier had been released. This was proof enough that Ling Tian and the others had no intention of wiping out the Outer Realm Star Domain. The Dark Pavilion and Mist Hidden Sect, who were most familiar with the intelligence, would be even less likely to believe the rumors.
As long as the Dark Pavilion and Mist Hidden Sect trusted Ling Tian, Chi Xue, and the others, there would be no major problem. Other Outer Realm Cultivators would have a hard time finding their whereabouts, so even if they wanted to attack, they would have little opportunity. That would allow Ling Tian and the others to keep working to improve their strength.
Chi Xue, Po Tian, and the others were still shaken by what had happened. After all, they had captured and killed many Outer Realm Cultivators before.

There were surely many who were even stronger.
