“So I witnessed what transpired here, but I chose not to intervene. Our duty, after all, is solely to safeguard our master and Elder Miss, and fulfill the mission of Shadow Door,” the hidden guard admitted, his voice tinged with guilt.
In the end…
Numerous lives were lost right before their very eyes, yet they remained mere spectators.
They kept to themselves, preventing any interference.
Zhou Huaijin nodded gravely, comprehending the events relayed by the hidden guards.
That was the situation unfolding beyond Haitian. How was the Saint Divine Land faring?
He felt deep concern.
His gaze lifted to the hidden guards. “You’re right. Devoid of magical powers, you are already at a disadvantage compared to seasoned practitioners, let alone monsters. We must take action to rescue people during this tumultuous period, but we cannot act recklessly.”
“We will depart now and return to the Saint Divine Land this morning,” Zhou Huaijin declared.
In this tumultuous world, his sole desire was to ensure their safety.
Gu Chaoyan had already mastered Sword Kinesis Flight, but the current location was unsuitable for utilizing it.
Therefore, before their departure, she administered some pills to the horses, known for their swiftness.
After detoxifying herself and undergoing cultivation, her physical condition improved significantly. Gone were the days when even being in a wagon at a distance.
Consequently, they traveled at a rapid pace.
They hastened their return.
As evening approached, they needed to find a suitable place to spend the night. Inns no longer existed in these areas, so they had to seek refuge in a suitable mountain.
“How is that location?” Sword One gestured towards a specific spot and inquired of Dao Seeking.
Gu Chaoyan raised her gaze, anticipating the response.
She observed a frantic group of people fleeing in a state of panic.
“What’s happening?” Gu Chaoyan was bewildered and inclined to investigate.
Taking in the scene, Zhou Huaijin instructed the hidden guards to remain still and followed suit.
Zhou Huaijin possessed remarkable agility. Even without magical powers, he could still accompany Gu Chaoyan.
“Help us, please! Help us!” Those individuals pleaded desperately, seeing Gu Chaoyan as their last hope.
Pursuing them were several ape-like creatures.
Gu Chaoyan wielded her white jade sword and struck at them. Her magical power was considerable, and it was evident that these ape-like beings were frightened by her capabilities. They had not anticipated encountering someone with such formidable magical prowess in this place.
As they prepared to give chase, they swiftly vanished like shadows.
Gu Chaoyan refused to let them escape so easily. With the white jade sword in hand, she pursued them.
These cunning creatures proved elusive. Sensing that Gu Chaoyan was the only one possessing significant magical power, they scattered in various directions, leaving her with no time to deal with each of them individually.
However…
Even with their evasive maneuvers, they could not elude Gu Chaoyan’s persistent pursuit.
She had been tailing them all along.
Then, she dispersed a powder towards the ape-like creatures. The powder emitted a distinct scent, enabling Gu Chaoyan to discern their whereabouts no matter how they tried to flee.
Eventually, she halted and relinquished the chase.
Instead, she mounted her sword and observed as the ape-like creatures scampered away.
Perceiving Gu Chaoyan’s absence, the creature let its guard down..
