Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Shen Daoming, as a Golden Core cultivator, was not unfamiliar to these two figures.

They were Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang from Hidden Sword Palace and Dongfang Tianxing from the Sect of Infinite Boundaries of the Western Desert.

At this moment, the expressions of these two, along with Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, were all marked with seriousness.

Upon seeing Shen Daoming, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan nodded to him.

Shen Ruyan spoke, “Brother, something has come up. Today, my husband and I will have to leave.”

“Huh…?”

Shen Daoming was taken aback by her sudden announcement, filled with confusion about what could prompt such a reaction from his sister and brother-in-law.

But he understood that some matters might be beyond his inquiry.

If there were anything significant, they would surely not keep it from him.

With this thought, he nodded in understanding.

“If there’s something important, then you should go ahead.

When you have time, you’re always welcome to come back,” Shen Daoming replied.

“Ok.”

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan nodded.

And without further delay, they, along with Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang and Dongfang Tianxing, departed from the Shen family.

On the way.

Jiang Chengxuan asked, “Fellow Daoist Dongfang, and Senior Xuan Yang, you mentioned earlier about a surge of demons causing chaos in the Southern Wilderness.

What exactly is happening? What about our people there? Why haven’t we received any news about this until now?”

Just now, Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang and Dongfang Tianxing had sought out Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan to deliver alarming news.

An immense number of demons had appeared in the Southern Wilderness, attacking on sight.

Since the battle six hundred years ago, the Eastern End and Central Plain had withdrawn most of their forces from the Southern Wilderness, leaving the Northern Border and Western Desert to station some people there for stabilizing and balancing the chaotic situation, as well as for strategic needs.

However, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were puzzled by the delay in receiving news of such a significant uprising of demons.

More intriguingly, they found it odd that they had not sensed or foreseen such an event themselves.

This was very problematic.

At this moment, Dongfang Tianxing said,

“It must be that someone has deliberately obscured the heavens’ secrets, even confusing the perceptions of our people, so that they remained unaware from the beginning to the end.

Had it not been for my wife Murong Xian’s recent visit to the Southern Wilderness, we might still be in the dark about what exactly happened there.1

With these words, a serious expression appeared on Dongfang Tianxing’s face.

He continued, “This suggests that our last operation did not root out all those hidden in our Nine Essences Cultivation World.

Among them, there should still be a portion of people hidden.

And most importantly, according to our investigation, those demons are targeting not only us and the native cultivators of the Southern Wilderness but also those from the Eastern End and the Central Plain.”

“Really?”

This statement instantly made Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s eyes narrow.

Shen Ruyan asked, “So, are there any movements from the Eastern End and the Central Plain?

Where are they? What are their people’s reactions?”

“This is also what I’m most puzzled about now. It’s also the main reason why Fellow Daoist Xuan Yang and I came to look for you.”

Dongfang Tianxing frowned. He seemed confused.

He said again, “Those people from the Eastern End and Central Plain don’t seem to have any reaction.

And by no reaction, I mean literally.

Those people, facing demons that threaten their lives, show neither resistance nor fear, allowing them to take their lives and devour their souls, completely transforming them into one of their own kind.”

“What?”

Both Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were astounded.

They couldn’t understand how, facing a group that wanted to take their lives, the lack of fear was one thing, but the absence of resistance was quite another, letting those demons take their lives, devour their souls, and even transform them into their kind.

In such a situation, the cultivators of both regions remained indifferent, which seemed very suspicious.

Unless those people no longer knew what fear was.

Or perhaps, those people had already lost their sense of self.

Otherwise, it was hard to explain the reaction of the people from the Eastern End and the Central Plain.

“Is it possible that those people had already been controlled by the culprits behind all this beforehand?”

At this point, Heavenly Lord Xuan Yang couldn’t help but frown and speak out.

Hearing his words, both Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan felt a stir in their hearts.

Jiang Chengxuan said, “The scenario Senior Xuan Yang mentioned is not impossible.

But the problem is, our people don’t seem to be experiencing what they are.

This doesn’t quite add up logically.

It’s unlikely that the culprits behind this only controlled the cultivators of the Eastern End and the Central Plain and didn’t target our cultivators, right?”‘
