They had been relentlessly kicking her when she was already down, almost as if they wished for her demise.
Her sole purpose was to rescue those people…
However…
Gu Chaoyan had no such benevolent intentions towards the disciples from the Three Pure Ones. She couldn’t shake the nagging suspicion that they might betray her even after she had saved them.
If that happened, it would be like shooting herself in the foot — an act she should never contemplate.
The disciples of the Three Pure Ones also noticed her gaze fixed on them. Fearing her wrath, they dropped to their knees and shouted anxiously, “It was our fault, we were mistaken! Please, don’t hold it against us!”
Gu Chaoyan couldn’t help but scoff.
Let it slide?
Generosity was never her strong suit, and she couldn’t simply let this pass. Pointing at them, she declared, “I won’t take them with me; you can proceed.”
With those words, the disciples of the Three Pure Ones cried out and continued to kowtow, blaming the man who had struck them when they were already down.
At this point, they were on completely unequal footing.
Gu Chaoyan paid them no heed as she departed with the others.
“Elder Man, do you plan to leave immediately, or will you be staying here for a day?” Squad Lord asked politely.
A day’s respite?
Gu Chaoyan felt a surge of fear upon hearing those words.
She dreaded the thought of saying even a few more words, let alone taking a break, as it could potentially expose her and put her life in jeopardy.
“No, no, I’m quite occupied. I must escort them away,” Gu Chaoyan replied with an embarrassed smile, insisting on her immediate departure.
The Head of the Undead Race found himself at a loss for words. He truly wished to linger a bit longer in this comfortable place, where he could even regain some of his former strength. The idea of leaving right away seemed like a tremendous missed opportunity.
“Very well, I shall accompany you on your way out,” Squad Lord responded politely.
Gu Chaoyan continued to wear her embarrassed smile, grateful for the gesture.
She couldn’t shake the feeling that she might easily reveal herself to this Squad Lord if she stayed any longer. Leaving now seemed like the wisest course of action.
As Squad Lord led the way, Gu Chaoyan finally got a glimpse of their surroundings. It resembled an ancient, shadowy city, and it seemed to be a gathering place for the Undead Race.
The darkness enveloped everything, and they encountered numerous Undead Race beings along the way, all of them appearing quite menacing. However…
These Undead Race members didn’t appear to be from Xuhai City. They operated with remarkable orderliness, each of them holding a distinct social status.
As they ventured beyond the confines of the ancient capital…
They found themselves in a desolate wasteland, devoid of any signs of life.
What drew the Undead Race to such inhospitable terrain?
Upon crossing the ancient capital’s boundary, the Squad Lord of the Undead Race came to a halt. “Elder Man, I’ll conclude our journey here. I’m not in a position to continue further.”
“That’s perfectly fine; you may depart now,” Gu Chaoyan replied, hoping to
part ways with the Squad Lord as swiftly as possible. She was relieved when he expressed no intention of leaving.
Gu Chaoyan began to piece together the situation.
They were within the confines of a mystic realm.
In this realm, everything lay within the Squad Lord’s control, and they were prohibited from venturing beyond its boundaries.
In the end…
This marked the territory of the Undead Race.
Very well.
Gu Chaoyan guided them into the barren expanse.
“It’s almost like returning to my roots,” the Head of the Undead Race remarked with a sense of nostalgia.
Due to their universally unfavorable reputation, the Undead Race typically inhabited desolate and remote areas..
