At Guangchengzi's words, Chijingzi and the others' smiles faded somewhat.
They all knew that if the Witch Clan dared attack the Human Race at a time like this, they must have some backing. No one would believe otherwise.
Meanwhile, inside a certain Secret Realm.
A towering figure sat upon a throne. Who else could it be but the resurrected Chi You?
At that moment, three wounded witch generals knelt before the throne. One of them had lost his left arm at the shoulder, and Jade Pure Immortal Light still coiled around the wound, impossible to dispel.
"Ancestral Witch Chi You!"
"The Chan Teachings have attacked us."
"The one leading them... is Guangchengzi of the Chan Teachings."
The one-armed witch general reported gravely.
"Hmm?"
On the throne, Chi You furrowed his brow at the news.
"The Chan Teachings?"
"Why would they help the Human Race at a time like this?"
Chi You was full of doubts.
From what he had learned, the Human Race had decent relations with both the Humanity Teaching and the Interception Sect.
If people from those two sects had stepped in to help the Human Race, Chi You wouldn't have found it strange. It would have made sense.
But the first to come to the Human Race's aid had been the Chan Teachings, and that made him suspicious.
"Hmph!"
After mulling it over, Chi You let out a cold snort.
"The Chan Teachings certainly do love meddling in other people's business!"
"Since that's how it is, I'll meet you myself."
As he spoke, Chi You slowly rose to his feet. Boundless baleful energy condensed around him, roiling like a tangible substance.
Chi You hadn't planned to enter the fray so soon.
But now that the Chan Teachings had intervened, there was no reason for him to wait
