"It's... it's over..."
Ji Yang stared blankly at the charred earth below.
It was over. Completely over.
The entire Heaven Severance Sect had been utterly wiped away because of his idea.
His disciples, his wife, his ancestors—every last one was gone.
All of it had happened in a single instant.
Everything he had built had turned into nothingness.
Ji Yang was utterly shattered, while the remaining four factions did not dare move an inch.
The disciples and elders they had brought all obediently lowered their heads. They did not even dare let their eyes wander, merely standing there stiffly.
The leaders of the four factions were completely dumbfounded.
Heaven Severance Sect... was just gone?
In the blink of an eye, it had been completely erased.
They fell silent. No one dared speak.
They did not even dare raise their heads to look at Ye Lin.
"Senior Brother, should we deal with all those remaining as well?"
At that moment, the Blazing Sun Saint withdrew his hand, smiling as he turned toward Ye Lin.
His smile was calm and airy, as though he had merely done something utterly insignificant.
The moment those words fell, everyone from the disciples to the Sect Masters of the four factions shuddered.
Th-there was still something to do with us?
"No need, Senior. When we go out, we should be reasonable."
"I gave Heaven Severance Sect face, but they refused it. Naturally, they should not continue to exist in this world."
"As for the remaining four factions, I believe they are quite reasonable."
"If we wiped them out without saying anything, wouldn't that make us unreasonable? It would not sound good if word got out."
Ye Lin smiled faintly.
His gaze swept, seemingly intentionally yet seemingly not, toward the four great factions in the distance.
