Chapter 140: Easily Resolve the Aftermath
The strong should act this way.
Upon returning to the formation, Xia Yuhui dared not delay in the slightest and immediately went to Luoyun Daoist's side.
"Fellow Daoist Luo Yun, as you can see, I have no other choice..."
"Alright, Fellow Daoist Xia, you don't need to explain to me. I have no authority over this matter. You should go and speak with the sect leader." After saying this, Daoist Luoyun pointed to the middle-aged man sitting upright in a chair in the distance.
Upon seeing this, Xia Yuhui's expression involuntarily became solemn. Guiyun Sect, Black Cloud Daoist, there were probably few cultivators in the ancient kingdom who did not know him.
After Xia Yuhui made some adjustments, he slowly walked to the side of Daoist Heiyun and respectfully bowed deeply, "Senior Heiyun!"
Seeing his attitude, Daoist Heiyun smiled slightly and chuckled, "Hehe, I observed that Fellow Daoist Xia's attitude on the battlefield just now was quite different."
"Senior Black Cloud, please don't make fun of me. I had no choice but to kill them. Those three scoundrels were really too much. They dared to attack me on the battlefield, so I had no choice but to kill them first."
"Now that the matter is settled, I have come to apologize to the sect leader!"
After speaking, Xia Yuhui took out two spiritual artifacts and three storage bags and respectfully handed them over. He had not touched any of these items. Guiyun Sect had a rule that if a cultivator who died in battle obtained a storage bag, it must be returned to his family or confiscated.
However, unless discovered in public, no one would follow this rule in secret, just as Xia Lingshan's storage bag was not returned to his family.
Black Cloud Taoist did not refuse and accepted the items directly.
“I heard from Junior Brother Guangyan that you are searching for the Undying Divine Thunder.”
Upon hearing this, Xia Yuhui was momentarily bewildered. Why discuss this matter at this time and in this setting?
“Indeed, Senior Black Cloud, I intend to use this Undying Thunder to forge a spiritual weapon.”
"Hmm, that's excellent. I have two here. If you perform well this time, I will give them to you directly without any reward. What do you think?"
"Thank you, senior!" Although Xia Yuhui smiled, he was not very excited. This Undying Divine Lightning was extremely precious and valuable. If it was given to him directly, how much would he have to pay to obtain it?
Daoist Heiyun nodded slightly, seemingly quite satisfied with Xia Yuhui's performance. "I have a question. Why did your Xia family send Junior Brother Guangyan to the sect for cultivation?"
Xia Yuhui was taken aback again. After thinking for a moment, he replied, "The Upper Sect has protected my Xia family for a long time. My Xia family should repay the kindness. Moreover, for the past seven hundred years, my Xia family has been an appendage of the Upper Sect. Therefore, the family will regularly send a few outstanding disciples to the Upper Sect for cultivation."
However, upon hearing Xia Yuhui's words, Daoist Heiyun's expression suddenly darkened, and he slowly said, "Repay kindness? Just like Uncle Xia Wenpeng back then, repay kindness."
After Xia Yuhui went to the battlefield, he kept an eye on Xia Yuhui and found that Xia Yuhui was becoming more and more like a person. When he was only in his twenties, he had already become a Foundation Establishment cultivator. At that time, Xia Wenpeng was already very powerful in Guiyun Sect. In fact, Xia Wenpeng had even recruited him. Therefore, he had a very deep impression of Xia Wenpeng.
Upon hearing this, Xia Yuhui broke out in a cold sweat. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find a way to answer.
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Xia, why are you so nervous? Speaking of which, my Uncle Wenpeng was kind to me back then. It's just a pity that he is no longer in the sect, and even the seven or eight disciples he took in back then are all gone." Seeing Xia Yuhui's nervousness, Daoist Heiyun's expression changed instantly, and he said with a smile.
In response, Xia Yuhui could only manage a slightly awkward smile.
"Alright, I'll arrange the manpower your team needs in a moment. In the future, I hope you won't follow in the footsteps of your ancestors. Do you understand?"
"Junior understands!"
After speaking, Xia Yuhui slowly took his leave. When he returned to his original spot, his mind in turmoil, he found that his entire group had vanished.
Xia Yuhui could only shake his head helplessly and return to his cave. He only had one day to rest and needed to recover his magical power as soon as possible.
It took Xia Yuhui a full half-day to fully restore his magical power. Of course, he also took some pills during the recovery process, otherwise it would have been impossible for him to recover so quickly.
After his magical power was fully restored, Xia Yuhui did not choose to continue cultivating. Half a day had actually been of little use.
Moreover, now that the battle has come to a life-or-death moment, he must go out and scout around to get to know his teammates.
The last great battle was relatively easy for their team because there were no powerful demons present, but this time it might not be so.
The market town has now been transformed into a square city, and the place where Xia Yuhui was just now was directly facing the north gate of the northern frontier. Now he was heading towards the south gate.
Now, the entire market is besieged by a horde of beasts. The four gates in the east, west, south, and north have long been sealed off by monsters, and even the sky above is filled with flying birds circling back and forth, launching attacks from time to time.
When Xia Yuhui arrived at the South Gate, he saw Luo Yun Daoist who was already waiting there.
The two were of one mind and remained silent, simply standing together quietly.
Not long after, the two members of the Jin family also silently came to their side. Now, the original team of seven has been reduced to only four due to various reasons.
Even the four remaining people did not exchange many words. They simply stared silently at the beast tide outside the formation. Various spells in the sky continued to strike the monsters on the ground, while the monsters also launched various attacks, crashing into the light barrier.
At this moment, everyone waited in silence. However, a deep male voice came from behind: "Fellow Daoist Chi Lei, it seems we are quite destined to meet."
Xia Yuhui turned his head and saw Su Ruquan and Su Muhe walking towards them with smiles on their faces.
"Could you two be the team members who were sent here?" Xia Yuhui asked, his face showing surprise.
“Exactly,” Su Ruquan replied with a smile.
He was initially worried about encountering a weak team, but to his surprise, the two of them were directly assigned to Xia Yuhui's team.
It should be noted that the strength of Luo Yun Dao Ren's team is now evident to all.
Furthermore, the Su family and the Xia family have business dealings, so it's likely that Xia Yuhui would lend a helping hand if they encountered any problems within their power.
The three quickly became acquainted, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious, as if they had a very close relationship. However, only they themselves knew the true nature of their relationship.
"Fellow Daoist Xia, come here for a moment." After a while, Daoist Luoyun spoke up.
Xia Yuhui gave the two members of the Su family an awkward smile, then quickly moved to Luoyun Daoist's side.
Daoist Luoyun did not choose to speak, but instead used telepathy: "Fellow Daoist Xia, no great demon appeared last time, but this time it may not be the case. Now that you have eliminated all those you wanted to eliminate, I hope you will go all out this time, otherwise it will be detrimental to both of us."
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Luo Yun, I can tell the difference. If a powerful demon appears later, just keep it occupied."
Upon hearing Xia Yuhui's response, Daoist Luoyun breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that Xia Yuhui might still intend to attack the Jin family.
