Chapter 173: The Cruelty of Human Nature
Ye Xuan out earlier, the rest were staying in the array, waiting for people from the outside world to co and rescue them.
Just as Ye Xuan had expected, the array was gradually being damaged and couldn’t hold on for long. During this ti, the black mist took advantage of a loophole, and many people were attacked, and so even died.
Seeing the people from the outside world coming to rescue them was like seeing a savior.
Unexpectedly, the casualties on their side were even greater than Ye Xuan’s.
In sharp contrast, although Ye Xuan’s side also had casualties, they didn’t reach such a number. However, those who entered the underground palace behind Ye Xuan all survived.
It was only after leaving Ye Xuan that soone got injured.
The black mist was so violent that even the array that was originally used to leave was affected. A few people were too anxious to leave this place and rashly stepped forward, which was why they were attacked.
In addition to the people he had saved before, it could be said that the number of survivors had exceeded their expectations. The outco was much better than they had expected.
All the disciples in the secret realm had been transferred out because this accident involved other sects. Hence, everyone was gathered together for treatnt.
There were still many high-rank alchemists from the Pill Refining Sect waiting outside. Their purpose was to prevent the black Qi from remaining. If it were to make a coback in the future, it would be a great disaster.
When they finished examining the disciples, they couldn’t help but exclaim, “It’s really amazing. Don’t worry, everyone. The black mist has been completely removed.”
Since there were no hidden dangers, everyone was completely at ease. As for the other injuries, they weren’t life-threatening and would recover after a few days of rest.
An elder of the Pill Refining Sect could not help but exclaim, “If it’s possible, I’d like to see what that filth removal pill looks like with my own eyes. Such a powerful pill, it’s probably already surpassed the sky rank.”
If it wasn’t for Ye Xuan generously giving out the dicine, the black mist would’ve deepened its fusion with the human body. If it had been a little later, it probably wouldn’t have been able to separate. Even if the great alchemist ca, there was nothing he could do.
Upon hearing this, the disciples felt a lingering fear in their hearts, and their faces revealed a grateful expression.
When the people from the Tai Qing Sect heard this, they imdiately took out a dozen pills. “What’s so difficult about that? We can have as many as we want.”
They were more or less affected by Ye Xuan. With a wave of their hands, even though their cultivation levels were not high, the imposing manner in which they took out their pills completely shocked the Pill Refining Sect and the high-ranked alchemists.
It turned out that Ye Xuan was worried that the black mist would attack them again, so he gave all the filth removal pills to the Tai Qing Sect and asked them to carry on them just in case.
The eyes of the Pill Refining Sect and the alchemists brightened as if they had seen a treasure. They wanted to worship it.
They only needed to take a few pills for research. As for the rest of the pills, they were all given to those who were in the array. After all, they had also been attacked by the black mist, so they had no worries since they had the filth removal pill.
Those people scrambled to eat, and the others couldn’t help but frown when they see them gobbling down the pills.
“It’s been counted. This is the list of survivors and the number of disciples who have died.”
When the other sects saw this, they heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s alright. the casualties aren’t particularly heavy.”
Although Ye Xuan had saved most of the people trapped in the black mist, if it weren’t for him, the entire army might have been annihilated. The current number of casualties was still within the acceptable range.
“What’s going on? The people who stayed in the array have the most casualties.”
Although the power of the array had been reduced, with the support of their spiritual power, it could still protect everyone. Logically, it was absolutely impossible for so many people to die.
He didn’t notice that after he said this, the eyes of the survivors in the array seed to be avoiding him as if they were hiding so unspeakable secret.
Very quickly, Mo Jianming noticed this and snorted coldly, “Speak! What are you guys hiding?”
The imposing manner on his body was vigorous as it fell on the heads of those people. When they t Mo Jianming’s sharp eyes as if he could see through everything and all the darkness was exposed.
They lowered their heads in fear and mumbled, “N-nothing. Those people were attacked by the black mist. That’s why they died. It has nothing to do with us.”
His expression showed that he was hiding sothing. Mo Jianming narrowed his eyes and said aningfully, “So that’s how it is.”
Those people thought that Mo Jianming believed his words, and they couldn’t help but feel relieved.
However, the next second, Mo Jianming’s deep voice was heard, “I didn’t say that it has anything to do with you. You’re simply confessing without being beaten.”
The huge pressure was like a sword mountain pressing down on their heads, making them almost unable to raise their heads. They clearly did not suffer any injuries, but it was as if countless sharp astral winds were blowing over them.
Under such high pressure, soone finally couldn’t take it anymore and knelt on the ground, crying out loud.
“It wasn’t . It wasn’t . It was them. When they saw that there was a hole in the array, they threw people in, and it attracted the attention of the black mist. Moreover, the power of the array had been reduced, so it couldn’t protect so many people.”
After hearing his story, everyone’s eyes were filled with disbelief. “There’s your fellow disciples among those people.”
This group of people was actually killing each other!
He finally understood why they had more deaths than Ye Xuan’s side. It was because so people were timid and did such a crazy thing.
The bloody truth was laid out in front of everyone, and for a mont, everyone was silent.
In the face of life and death, this was human nature.
