"Fall back quickly!"
Rain Star Daoist also roared anxiously, picked up Yan Yun'er whom he had knocked out, and quickly flashed into the distance.
"It's useless, all of you shall die..."
Seeing everyone around him fleeing wildly, the Third Enshrined one showed a mocking smile on his pained face.
However, before he could finish, a surge of spiritual power pierced through his sea of consciousness.
In an instant, the Third Enshrined one's sea of consciousness shattered.
Ye Cangtian, standing on a white dragon, pointed his finger towards the Third Enshrined one.
This move was the same "Red Dust" that had annihilated the Canglan Immortal Army.
Boom!
Right after shattering the Third Enshrined one's sea of consciousness, his body exploded like a bomb.
Fierce spiritual energy instantly swept the surroundings.
The disciples who were too slow to escape were instantly engulfed by the violent aura, and even Rain Star Daoist spat out a mouthful of blood, falling to the ground while holding Yan Yun'er.
This...
Seeing that at least one-third of the remaining disciples of Misty Rain Tower had perished and nearly half were seriously injured, Ye Cangtian's lips trembled.
He had already done his utmost to support Misty Rain Tower.
Yet, the current outcome was still a river of blood, and the entire Misty Rain Tower had fallen from its pedestal, its strength greatly diminished.
Thinking this, Ye Cangtian secretly vowed to make Flying Cloud Pavilion pay back their blood debts!
"Junior Brother, what is happening?"
Just then, two figures streaked across the top of the waterfall, Lan Yue and Hao Tian.
Such a great commotion could not possibly be hidden from them.
But when they arrived above the waterfall, they were stunned by the sight before them: bodies strewn everywhere, a river of blood.
Ye Cangtian slowly descended and looked at Lan Yue, saying, "The Third Enshrined one of Flying Cloud Pavilion used a secret technique to self-destruct, causing significant casualties. Senior Sister, notify the Hidden Group to rescue the injured..."
"Understood!"
Lan Yue quickly agreed and turned to leave.
On the other side, Ye Cangtian flashed to the side of Rain Star Daoist and Yan Yun'er.
Yan Yun'er was in better condition, having only fainted and sustained some external injuries.
However, Rain Star Daoist was in a more serious state.
He had held Yan Yun'er close, absorbing a lot of the attack, and his meridians and internal organs were severely injured, but thankfully his life was not in danger.
Seeing this, Ye Cangtian quickly took out a Sheng Sheng Bu Xi Pill and administered it to him.
After doing all this, Ye Cangtian then awakened Yan Yun'er.
After all, Yan Yun'er's position in Misty Rain Tower was second only to Qing Yan and Rain Star Daoist. Waking her up would make it easier to handle the aftermath.
"How could it have become like this?"
"Where is my Master?"
Looking at the heavily injured and unconscious Rain Star Daoist, Yan Yun'er quickly scanned the surroundings but could not find Qing Yan, and immediately became anxious.
Ye Cangtian sighed, and said heavily, "Sect Master Qing Yan was ambushed and killed..."
He did not reveal the full truth, fearing that Yan Yun'er would not be able to handle it if she knew everything. At this time, Misty Rain Tower needed someone to step forward and take charge!
"How is that possible!"
Yan Yun'er's eyes widened, and she said angrily, "My Master has profound cultivation, and no one can successfully ambush her. You must be lying to me! Tell me quickly, where is my Master!"
Alas!
Ye Cangtian sighed heavily, then said, "The most important thing for you now is to take charge and cooperate with the Hidden Group to treat the injured..."
Seeing the grief on Ye Cangtian's face, Yan Yun'er was stunned, her body trembled uncontrollably, and a few clear tears streamed down her eyes.
She realized that Ye Cangtian was not lying to her.
After a long while, she finally managed to adjust her emotions, cooperating with the Hidden Group to begin rescuing the injured.
...
Clear Wind Hall, Dragon City.
Lan Yue returned to Ye Cangtian's side and briefly reported the casualties of Misty Rain Tower.
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian clenched his fists, and amidst his anger, something seemed to occur to him.
He had vaguely heard from someone in Misty Rain Tower, Hun Shi Yi, mention that because Misty Rain Tower had chosen the wrong faction, Flying Cloud Pavilion had made a move against them.
If that were the case, would Flying Cloud Pavilion make a move against Swift Wind Tower, Blazing Fire Academy, and Imperial Dragon Villa?
After all, according to the information obtained so far, Flying Cloud Pavilion had not yet made a move against the Hidden Group, so their targets could only be these three forces.
With this thought, Ye Cangtian looked at Lan Yue and said, "Senior Sister, I need to go to Imperial Dragon Villa! You stay with the Hidden Group to manage the overall situation..."
Lan Yue nodded, signaling him to be extra careful.
Seeing this, Ye Cangtian did not hesitate and passed through the teleportation gate.
Hmm?
As soon as he passed through the teleportation gate, Ye Cangtian frowned.
The teleportation gate was set up within Imperial Dragon Villa, but when he put on his mask and walked out of the room, he found some unfamiliar figures and auras.
And although these people wore Imperial Dragon Villa's attire, they were extremely shocked to see him.
"Death, Death God!"
"The Death God has arrived..."
After a moment of愣after, the two guards immediately shouted loudly.
In an instant, the surrounding auras became active, but they did not attack Ye Cangtian; instead, they scattered towards the surroundings.
It seemed they were going to deliver a message.
Ye Cangtian muttered to himself, but he was also puzzled. These people did not bow to him but instead shouted. Had Imperial Dragon Villa already been occupied?
Thinking this, Ye Cangtian flashed and blocked the path of the two guards.
"Tell me, what exactly happened to Imperial Dragon Villa!"
The two guards looked at Ye Cangtian in horror, retreating step by step, waving their hands repeatedly, claiming that everything was normal at Imperial Dragon Villa.
Hmph!
Ye Cangtian snorted coldly, flung his hand, and sent one of the guards flying. Then, a dagger appeared in his hand.
"If you don't speak, your fate will be much worse than his, so you'd better think carefully before speaking..."
"I'll talk, I'll talk."
Before Ye Cangtian could finish, the guard caved in and said, "Lord Death God, we are also people of Imperial Dragon Villa..."
Hmm?
Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian's brows furrowed deeply. While he didn't know all the guards in the villa, he was generally familiar with their faces.
Now that their faces were unfamiliar and they were so nervous upon seeing him, something was definitely wrong.
Suddenly, Ye Cangtian thought of something.
He looked at the other person and asked, "Are you from the Black Feather Gang?"
"Yes, yes, yes, we are from the Black Feather Gang, and also from Imperial Dragon Villa!" The guard nodded repeatedly, afraid that the other party would suddenly attack.
Heh heh!
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian's face showed a cold smile. It seemed that Changsun Lingxi could no longer hold back and had made a move against Imperial Dragon Villa.
Thinking this, he asked again, "Besides Changsun Lingxi and Dark Wing, who else is there?"
Although Changsun Lingxi had the Black Feather Gang, the Black Feather Gang's strength was clearly insufficient to deal with Imperial Dragon Villa.
Moreover, Imperial Dragon Villa was not what it used to be. Whether it was Zhan Wufeng or the five commanders he had promoted, their strength was rarely matched by anyone below the Celestial level.
Therefore, with just Changsun Lingxi and Dark Wing, the probability of controlling Imperial Dragon Villa was extremely slim.
"Lord Death God, your foresight is impeccable!"
"Besides the Black Feather Gang, Flying Cloud Pavilion also sent a team led by Hun San to assist Changsun Lingxi in taking over Imperial Dragon Villa..."
Flying Cloud Pavilion, it's Flying Cloud Pavilion again!
It seems my guess was indeed correct. Flying Cloud Pavilion intended to eliminate the allies of the Hidden Group first, which would make it easier to deal with the Hidden Group.
Thinking this, Ye Cangtian looked at the guard again and asked, "I ask you, where are Zhan Wufeng and the others?"
"Reporting to Lord Death God, they are all safe and have not been killed, but they have been imprisoned!"
"Changsun Lingxi said that if all the people of Imperial Dragon Villa were killed, then even if Imperial Dragon Villa was recaptured, it would be meaningless, so they were given a chance to reform..."
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian's expression softened slightly. It seemed the situation might not be too dire.
With this thought, Ye Cangtian ignored the guards and slowly walked towards the main hall of the villa.
Tap, tap, tap...
Not long after walking, the sound of footsteps could be heard, and numerous guards emerged from all directions, at least a thousand people.
They surrounded Ye Cangtian but did not rush to attack.
After all, they were not fools. The Death God was a Celestial level expert, and if they rashly charged forward, they would surely die a miserable death.
Hmph!
Looking at these guards holding weapons pointed at him, the Death God said faintly, "Regardless of whether you are from the Black Feather Gang or originally belonged to Imperial Dragon Villa, surrender now, and I will not hold you accountable!"
