At the command, the Heavenly Dao Alliance cultivators, who had long been ready, immediately scattered. Dividing into squads led by Golden Core True Persons, they charged out of the Guardian Mountain Formation in different directions.
"Hmph! You refuse the toast only to drink the punishment wine. Kill them all! Leave no survivors!"
The powerful cultivator commanding the army outside snorted and immediately issued the order to slaughter the fleeing Heavenly Dao Alliance cultivators.
Blood flashed everywhere, and screams rang out without end.
Watching from afar, Chen Lin knitted his brows, but in the end, all he could do was sigh.
He had never expected the Heavenly Dao Alliance to make such a choice. They lacked the courage for a decisive battle, and now he could not help even if he wanted to.
With the fighting so scattered, there was little he could accomplish. Nor could he contend alone against so many Nascent Soul cultivators, especially with the Xuanyin Patriarch lurking somewhere unknown.
As he watched, Chen Lin's expression shifted. With delight on his face, he took out a trembling Transmission Talisman.
Mu Linglong had sent him a message.
This was an ordinary Transmission Talisman. Since it had reacted, she must have already left the Grand Formation.
He activated the Transmission Talisman, and Mu Linglong's voice rang out.
"Junior brother, I'm with Senior Huanling. Whatever you do, don't come here. Leave immediately and meet up with Master!"
Learning that she was with True Lord Huanling, Chen Lin felt a weight lift from his heart.
With Huanling's strength, almost no one could stop him unless he encountered the Xuanyin Patriarch.
As for Sheng Zhenqing, he was the Ice Cloud Fairy's nephew. It was not Chen Lin's place to worry about him.
Those were his only two acquaintances in the Heavenly Dao Alliance.
