Above the outskirts of the Heavenly Wolf Sect, a brilliant celestial river slowly unfurled.

Vast energy surged and flowed within it, making it seem as though the Milky Way had fallen from the highest heavens into the mortal world, magnificent and boundless.

This was the Star River Formation activated by True Person Red Kite and High Person Clear Void, two saint realm cultivators unleashing their overwhelming power together.

Several thousand soldiers around them were already in position, waiting for the moment the Heavenly Wolf Sect's protective formation opened.

Opportunities to distinguish themselves before Li Chen were rare, and this time they were arresting Former Dynasty Remnants. With credit practically lying there for the taking, every last one of them was beside himself with excitement.

Moreover, the soldiers who had come were all formidable by military standards, elites from Shanghe City selected to ensure no fish slipped through the net.

Zhang Yang, the rogue cultivator who had tipped them off, was also waiting nearby, ready to lead the way.

An avalanche of resources was about to fall into his lap.

With those resources, he would surely break through his limits and perhaps exchange them for other benefits as well.

Zhang Yang's discovery that the Heavenly Wolf Sect was harboring Former Dynasty Remnants stemmed from a strange incident he had encountered while exploring the surrounding mountains.

At the time, his team had been attacked by a powerful evil cultivator.

Someone in the group had gone to seek help nearby and found a Heavenly Wolf Sect party: an elder leading more than ten disciples on a training expedition.

Zhang Yang had been badly injured then, so he had not accompanied the group to eliminate the evil cultivator.

Later, after returning to the city, Zhang Yang discovered that none of his teammates had returned.
