"That felt good! So damn good! Hahaha!" A-Dai had collapsed on the ground, but still remembered to shout.
The members of Dark Night were just about to laugh at A-Dai's ridiculously melodramatic teenage lines.
Then another voice suddenly rang out: "Uphold heaven's justice, slay demons and monsters! This is our bounden duty! Cultivate in times of peace, descend from the mountains in times of chaos! This is the very foundation of our pursuit of the Dao!"
"Uphold heaven's justice! Slay demons and monsters! This is our bounden duty!"
"Uphold heaven's justice! Slay demons and monsters! This is our bounden duty!"
Zhi Yi excitedly shouted and sang, while his fellow disciples joined in with loud cries.
Everyone was exhausted, but at that moment, even with their legs trembling too badly to stand steadily, they leaned against one another, forced their backs straight, and held their heads high, meeting each other's eyes with unwavering resolve.
The members of Dark Night curled their toes in secondhand embarrassment. Yet, for some reason, they saw something in these people that resembled themselves. Perhaps it was conviction? Perhaps it was the understanding between them?
It was hard to describe, but beautiful. Their toes involuntarily relaxed a little, and they watched the scene with smiles.
After a brief rest, everyone returned to the base. They had barely entered when Xiao Yufei hurried up to meet them, beside himself with excitement. "Ma'am, you... thank you for all your hard work!"
Bai Yaoyao did not answer immediately. She glanced at the... Ability Users who had been thrown out, now slumped beside the city wall like puddles of mud.
They had been doing their best to make themselves invisible, but had still been noticed.
Bai Yaoyao walked straight over and asked with a smile, "Did everyone have fun?"
