Even the delicate Tang Ying from the same sect participated in the bloody task of dismemberment.
Only Li Yunjing stood aside, continuing to gaze into the depths of the mountain.
He saw streaks of light shooting out from the valley within the mountain, staining the sky blood-red.
"I wonder what’s happening over there!"
Li Yunjing’s face grew darker, muttering inwardly.
This time, witnessing the actions of such a powerful being from the demon race left Li Yunjing in a state of extreme fear.
Right now, he only wished to flee from this place!
"Alright! Let’s retreat!"
Soon, a burly man shouted, leading the charge towards the exit of the mountain.
The others followed closely, with Tang Ying lagging a step behind, approaching Li Yunjing and saying, "I have your share, I’ll give it to you once we’re out of the mountain!"
Li Yunjing nodded, casually responding, and with quick steps, he instantly caught up with the middle-aged man and others.
"Huh? The people from the Shenxiao Dao Sect are really something else!"
Suddenly, the people in front saw Li Yunjing and Tang Ying overtaking them one after another, and couldn’t help but marvel repeatedly.
These four were veterans in the "Youlan Market."
They frequently risked their lives in the "Youlan Mountain Range" to hunt demon beasts and gather herbs, constantly facing the danger of death just to earn enough spirit stones annually to sustain their cultivation.
As for saving up spirit stones, that was out of the question.
This time, after five days in the mountain, they noticed some odd occurrences and had no choice but to flee.
They had made ample preparations, spending significant resources and time for this trip.
Now, they were returning empty-handed and suffering a great loss.
Because of this, when they saw a lone black bear, their unwillingness made them seize the chance to fight it, hoping to kill the bear for some compensation.
Now that they accomplished their goal, they felt they could at least break even.
The middle-aged loose cultivators finally showed satisfaction and began racing for their lives.
The six figures darted through the forest, gliding in mid-air, stepping on tree tops, covering dozens, even hundreds of feet in a single leap.
Li Yunjing continuously propelled his mana, reaching an extreme speed.
If not for considering Tang Ying, he would have blended into the wind, disappearing without a trace.
At this moment, even the four loose cultivators gaped in surprise, not to mention Tang Ying, who was astounded by her fellow sect member’s speed, far surpassing her own.
They were both at the Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer, and both inner sect disciples, did he really have to be this impressive?
Tang Ying wanted to catch up but lacked the strength to accelerate and keep up with Li Yunjing’s pace.
This left Tang Ying somewhat disappointed.
At the same time, she was extremely curious about her senior brother’s origins.
How could he be so powerful?
The journey back was not peaceful.
They frequently encountered fleeing demon beasts and cultivators escaping into the mountain.
Li Yunjing’s group faced continuous attacks!
Luckily, they were highly skilled, and the demon beasts and other cultivators posed little hindrance.
On the second day, a colossal warship, spanning thousands of feet, appeared in the sky, flying a banner with the word "Shenxiao," greatly exciting Li Yunjing and Tang Ying.
The bigwigs of their "Shenxiao Dao Sect" had arrived!
It seemed that whatever was happening deep in the "Youlan Mountain Range" had even drawn the attention of the great figures from "Shenxiao Dao Sect."
The massive warship trembled in mid-air, emitting a sound like muffled thunder, startling the cultivators and demon beasts below, causing them to tremble in fear.
Many events had transpired over the past two days, leaving the skies devoid of anything but the renowned figures; no demon beasts or cultivators dared to fly.
Some loose cultivators saw the arrival of "Shenxiao Dao Sect’s" bigwigs and looked at Li Yunjing and Tang Ying with fear.
This was the mighty deterrent power of a giant sect!
In the following few hours, the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" sent two more colossal warships.
All three warships were unmatched by the "Cyan Cloud Ship."
They were war machines for the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" to conquer the Southern Heaven Continent!
Li Yunjing didn’t know their specifications, but considering the warships’ grandeur, he understood their immense power!
The "Shenxiao Dao Sect" deploying three "Shenxiao Battleships" simultaneously indicated how seriously they regarded the events in the "Youlan Mountain Range."
At this moment, deep within the "Youlan Mountain Range," demon clouds billowed, obscuring the sky and shrouding the area where Li Yunjing’s group stood in a bone-chilling demonic wind.
The conflict between the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" and the "Youlan Mountain Range" had nothing to do with Li Yunjing’s group.
Small figures like Li Yunjing had no role to play, not even as cannon fodder.
In Li Yunjing’s mind, participating in the deep mountain battle would be futile without Golden Core Realm strength, not even qualifying them as cannon fodder.
If the sky fell, the tall ones would hold it up!
Small characters like them just needed to keep running.
After a day and night of fleeing, Li Yunjing’s group found a dense forest to halt and rest.
In that day and night, they had fought countless battles, killing countless demon beasts, and even a few cultivators.
Besides Li Yunjing, Tang Ying, and the middle-aged leader, the others bore varying degrees of injuries.
"Heh heh heh! Little ladies! Surrender now, and we brothers won’t trouble you. But if you resist, don’t blame us for being unkind; we’ll kill first and meet later!"
