Outside Wonderous Palace, two Divine Communication Realm Elders from Righteous Sun Sect stood with their hands clasped behind their backs. Their gazes were solemn as they looked straight ahead. There had just been another exchange of blows, but this ti it was more of a probe. It was now, essentially, halfti.
"It’s almost been three days. Elder Wang hasn’t arrived. Elder Shi Yan, don’t you think it’s about ti we withdrew?" The one speaking was none other than Xu An, who had previously attacked Wonderous Palace alongside Wang Shiyang.
The other person was a middle-aged man with a stern expression, nad Shi Yan. At this mont, both of their auras were slightly erratic. It was clear they had been injured. They had thought that Wang Shiyang would soon co to reinforce them, but he never showed.
"Indeed, it’s about ti," Xu An replied. He glanced at Wonderous Palace from afar, and a tinge of wariness arose in his heart.
No more. They couldn’t go on like this any longer.
Inside Wonderous Palace, the thick scent of blood was pervasive, and nurous corpses hadn’t even been cleared away in ti. In those three days, the two of them had already killed quite a few Wonderous Palace disciples. Among them, there were even so at the level of elders. In just three days, Wonderous Palace had suffered heavy losses.
But now, with Si Nanyan’s official return, after several fierce battles, both sides had sustained serious injuries. Xu An and Shi Yan knew that continuing the fight would obviously not bring any advantages. Most crucially, Xu An had begun to feel that the terrifying aura within Wonderous Palace seed to be slowly awakening. As elders of Righteous Sun Sect, they were sowhat aware of the ins and outs of Wonderous Palace. Moreover, they had so many Righteous Sun Sect disciples by their side. They absolutely could not take any more risks.
"Everyone retreat, bring all our people back." Just then, Liu Qingxuan’s ssage arrived tily.
Xu An and Shi Yan exchanged looks and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Disciples of Righteous Sun Sect, heed the command! The Sect Master orders us to return to the sect!" Imdiately thereafter, Xu An flew above everyone and gave the order to the people from Righteous Sun Sect.
Suddenly, an uproar broke out among the Righteous Sun Sect disciples who were still eager to fight.
What in the world? We’ve been itching for a fight for ages! And now they want us to leave?
"Elder, this is an excellent opportunity to attack Wonderous Palace!" soone spoke up, clearly reluctant.
"The Sect Master’s command! We return to the sect!" Xu An frowned and repeated the order. He particularly stressed the words "Sect Master" this ti.
At this, everyone reluctantly lowered their heads. There was nothing they could do. If Xu An and Shi Yan left, this group of them wouldn’t stand a chance of overturning Wonderous Palace.
「anwhile, inside Wonderous Palace.」
Si Nanyan and Feng Ruoli had long been waiting for Wen Zhixing. The two of them appeared high in the air, facing the distant Righteous Sun Sect mbers. Both sides were separated by a considerable distance.
During those three days, battles had erupted multiple tis. Each ti, both sides had narrowly escaped with their lives. At this mont, as the Righteous Sun Sect disciples increasingly gathered, almost as if for a full-fledged raid, both Si Nanyan and Feng Ruoli felt a sense of oppression.
For Wonderous Palace, this was an instance of Righteous Sun Sect behaving without martial virtue, bullying the fewer with their greater numbers. They killed anyone they encountered. Regardless of their cultivation level, if they were from Wonderous Palace, the order was simply to kill.
"Damn it, these shaless people! They have no decency at all!" Si Nanyan clenched her silver teeth, her beautiful eyes ablaze with anger. The number of Wonderous Palace disciples was already fewer compared to Righteous Sun Sect. Now, quite a few more had been killed. How could she accept this?
Si Nanyan even felt the impulse to charge headlong into the ordinary disciples of Righteous Sun Sect, regardless of the consequences. This is unbearable! If worst cos to worst, I’ll throw caution to the wind!
She didn’t consider that it was she herself who had lacked martial virtue from the start. The dignified Sect Master herself, going undercover and engaging in such despicable tactics.
"Junior Sister, don’t act rashly." Standing beside her, Feng Ruoli gracefully stepped forward, her seemingly delicate palm gently catching Si Nanyan’s slender wrist. The recent battle had made Si Nanyan a bit emotionally unstable.
"Don’t worry, I’m not that foolish." Si Nanyan exhaled slowly, then imdiately asked, "How soon can the Sect Protection Array be fully repaired?"
"Soon. We’re already conducting the final checks; it should be operational in at most half an incense stick ti," Feng Ruoli spoke softly.
"That’s good." Si Nanyan nodded, feeling sowhat relieved. This ti, only two Divine Communication Realm elders had co from Righteous Sun Sect. The Sect Protection Array would definitely hold. Once the array was activated, things would be easier to handle.
"Junior Sister, has Wang Shouzhen not arrived yet? It should be about ti, according to my calculations," Feng Ruoli looked up at the sky do, her delicate brows knitting slightly.
"He should be here soon... I’ll ask again." Just as Si Nanyan was about to send out a ssage, she felt her ssage belt vibrate with incoming information.
"He’s here!" Si Nanyan tapped the ssage Jade Talisman. After a mont, her expression brightened slightly as she said, "Wang Shouzhen is now outside, but there are too many people from Righteous Sun Sect; he can’t get in."
"Never mind, let’s activate the array first. It’s almost ti. I don’t believe they’ll dare to stay here once the array is activated." Feng Ruoli’s eyes flashed as she said, "Just let Wang Shouzhen use the chaos as an opportunity to slip in."
"Good! Let’s go and receive him together," Si Nanyan also nodded.
As she finished speaking, an Array Token appeared in her palm. A glimr of spiritual light burst forth!
"Activate the Sect Protection Array!"
BOOM!
The next mont, four dazzling pillars of light soared into the sky from the four outermost peaks to the east, south, west, and north within Wonderous Palace. Above the pillars, dense and intricate array patterns erged, weaving into a net. A gigantic light barrier appeared, beginning to slowly envelop Wonderous Palace.
