After I left the sect, the entire sect knelt down and begged for forgiveness.

Chapter 234 Leave No One Alive

His eyes were wide open, and he died with his eyes open, unable to close them in peace.

She took the life of a living person, yet felt no remorse or confusion for the loss; her expression remained unchanged as she continued to adjust her aim and fire her arrows.

The battle lasted a night and a day, leaving no survivors, and they were all wiped out without even being interrogated.

It wasn't that she was particularly powerful, but rather that during the day, the eagle-lion's power wasn't diminished. As a Xuan-level spirit beast, it possessed power comparable to a Nascent Soul cultivator, making it as easy as killing chickens to deal with Golden Core cultivators.

The cultivators who came to assassinate him were not people who were eager to die.

They originally planned to use the Gu Masters of Baling to control the insects and scorpions to attract the attention of the eagle-lion before luring it away, but things didn't go as planned.

The lurking cultivators were trapped by the great formation, while the Gu Master manipulated things from a great distance by playing the flute, thus being isolated outside the formation.

Without the force that held them back, the scorpions in the formation scattered as if they had been freed. They were already fragile, and the force of the battle caused many of them to die instantly.

Without the flute to control them, the number of insects and scorpions dwindled until the remaining ones fled.

Without the venomous insects to restrain them, and without the eagles and lions being lured away, they could still put up a fight at night by regrouping, but during the day they had no chance at all.

The overwhelming strength was terrifying; some died without even having a chance to fight.

Lin Yan was also in a sorry state at this time. During the day, with Eagle Lions around, they had achieved an overwhelming victory.

Not only did she support the great formation, but she also forcibly absorbed spiritual energy to fight at night, which caused her whole body to ache and feel like it would shatter at the slightest touch.

The elf was anxious, but its power had no effect on relieving pain, and it could only watch as its master's face contorted in agony.

Her current condition is a consequence of the forced expansion of her meridians and spiritual roots; she needs to rest for a few days to recover.

Fearing that someone might take advantage of her weakness to launch a sneak attack, she went directly into the spatial dimension.

Before entering, she removed the grand formation, but she did not remove the barrier and array she had set up in the cave. She had the Red Enchantress, Snow Frost Eagle, and Eagle Lion move the corpses outside the cave and deal with them after she recovered.

……

Five days later, she emerged fully recovered, having changed her clothes. Looking at the corpses piled on the ground, a clear murderous intent flashed in her eyes.

Once I return to the Miaofa Sect, I will definitely find an opportunity to kill him and eliminate any future troubles!

Instead of using all the corpses as nourishment, she selected two of them, cut out their cracked golden cores, and placed them into exquisite wooden boxes.

After confiscating their storage bags, she didn't rush to examine them. Instead, she rode her Gryphon onward, heading towards the town fifty miles away.

Having just experienced a major battle, she had no desire to continue her journey.

The Griffin was very fast, arriving in just one hour. After registering in town, she first went to the Chamber of Commerce to check in before sending out the wooden box.

Upon arriving at her room, she closed the door and set up a protective barrier before sitting down on the futon to meditate and absorb the spiritual energy from the spirit stones.

The eagle-lion perched on her head flew down to the bed, its body growing larger to take over the bed.

She smirked silently, absorbing spiritual energy while laying out the confiscated storage bags on the ground.

After the last spasm, she found that she was much more efficient at absorbing the spiritual energy from the spirit stones. She didn't need to concentrate much before the spiritual energy entered her body.

Now she can cultivate while clearing out her "loot".

Just then, the communication jade disc activated. She took it out of her storage bag, infused it with spiritual energy, and a message from her senior sister popped up, asking if she had arrived in Mo City. Judging by Eagle Lion's speed, she should have arrived by now. However, she had been resting in her spatial dimension for five days, delaying her journey; she was only halfway there.

An anonymous monk said: "Something came up, I haven't arrived yet. But I should be able to get there before the funeral."

Don't mess with me: Are you alright?
An anonymous monk said: "It's alright, I've actually gained quite a lot. I don't need to ask my elders for gifts, this trip has been worthwhile."

Don't Mess With Me: That's good. There are sect outposts in Mo City. Once you arrive, show your sect token to check in. If you don't want to stay at the sect outpost, you can stay at the merchant guild.

Don't mess with me: But I do suggest you stay at the sect's outpost. There are a few elders there, and they're quite generous. I don't have much else to say. If Little Lion misbehaves on the way, just give him a good beating.

Ah this...

Lin Yan didn't know how to reply for a moment.

For someone at the Golden Core stage to go and fight a Profound-level spirit beast is just incredibly audacious!

After collecting the communication jade disc, she began to open the storage bags to see if there was anything good in the storage bags of the cultivators who killed her that would catch her eye.

She should have been gloomy and dejected after being assassinated, but with so much to gain, she simply couldn't suppress the upward curve of her lips.

Some were happy while others were sad, and Wen Gui's emotions were quite unstable in comparison.

The Chamber of Commerce was quite fast at delivering urgent goods; the items were delivered to Miaofa Sect in just a few days.

Because it was specifically designated as Wen Gui's item, the miscellaneous disciple of the Miaofa Sect responsible for receiving goods hurriedly delivered it to his cave dwelling.

After explaining their purpose, the servant in charge of guarding the place didn't make things too difficult for them and even helped push the things into the cave.

One of them glanced inside, then pulled him a few steps outside: "If anything else is sent to him, just sneak in quietly and don't make a fuss, or you'll get scolded."

"Oh, how could that be? Isn't this personal disciple known for his gentleness, treating even the menial disciples with courtesy?"

"Perhaps his temper has become strange since he was put in solitary confinement. A few days ago, he was shouting and making strange noises in the cave. It was terrifying!"

The handyman disciple responsible for delivering the items nodded and slowed his pace considerably as he descended the mountain.

The disciple guarding the entrance called out, "Master Wen Gui, someone has sent you something."

Hearing the sound, Wen Gui, who was inside the cave, went to the cave entrance, took the wooden box, and then went back inside.

He's not in good shape right now; his eyes are filled with hatred and are bloodshot!

Thinking it was something sent to him by a trusted confidant, he opened it and threw away what he saw inside.

The golden pill inside the box was already fragile, and when he threw it on the ground, it shattered into pieces.

He clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with resentment. A voice kept echoing in his mind, urging him to kill her!

This is a provocation, a mockery!
The assassination attempt failed, and the other side dug out the golden cores of two of them and gave them to him. Isn't that a provocation and mockery?
But he was locked up here and couldn't get out. Apart from contacting his confidants to send someone to kill Lin Yan, he couldn't do anything else.

He took out the jade disc and reconnected with his confidant.

Before the other party could speak, he launched into a tirade of abuse: "Useless! Why didn't you say the assassination failed? The first time you sent out a team that got wiped out, and the second time you didn't even know to send more people, you idiots!"

"They've been dispatched. There are thirty of your elite guards, some of whom are in the late Golden Core stage. Their soul lamps have all been extinguished."
