As the sun set in the west, countless golden rays cascaded down, adding a unique charm to the otherwise desolate Great Gobi. Even the oasis appeared to possess a touch of mysterious beauty.
However, such a scene could not erase the bloodthirsty aura that lingered over it.
Corpses lay scattered everywhere.
Several disciples of the divine clan patrolled Alin Village, disdainfully kicking aside one or two bodies to see if these ignorant ants were truly dead or merely pretending.
Although Alin Village's defensive formation had withstood for quite some time, allowing the villagers to retreat as much as possible, the vast disparity in strength meant they still had to leave many warriors behind to cover their escape and abandon those villagers who could not travel far. These individuals had no hope of survival whatsoever.
"What are you all doing? You seem so distracted!" Cold Eagle felt a surge of anger at the sight of these disciples.
As the elder left in charge, he knew that with Alin Village's remaining strength, there was little hope of launching a counterattack. Even surviving under Old Six's command seemed nearly impossible. However, that was no reason for him to relax his expectations of these disciples!
Because these disciples failed to grasp the immense significance of this operation!
Looking at the distant sunset, Cold Eagle felt a surge of ambition within him.
They had taken this step despite the enormous risk of becoming enemies of the divine clan not to let these disciples experience the thrill of slaughter! Instead, it was with a determination to break through their limits that they aimed to unite the entire Twin Sword Sect and advance toward becoming a top-tier Major Sect!
Although this operation also aimed to expand their sect's base for selecting disciples and perhaps acquire some special treasures from their village, as an elder, Cold Eagle understood that the former was far more important!
But now? The performance of these disciples left him deeply disappointed. Unlike Old Six, who still harbored some ambition despite engaging in schemes and intrigues, most of these individuals were indifferent, muddling through life without any aspirations!
Cold Eagle sighed deeply, realizing that this was an unavoidable situation. On this path, they—Twin Sword Sect—or rather, similar mid-tier forces faced fundamental disadvantages!
These disciples were originally leftovers from other major divine clans; they were inherently lacking. Years of weakness had drained their morale, leaving few with the ambition to surpass elite clan disciples. If it weren't for this generation being particularly fortunate—having several capable brothers who had grown into elders—now that their strength had increased, they finally possessed the means to rise within the divine clan hierarchy!
Regardless, he must fulfill the wishes of his ancestors!
Cold Eagle clenched his fists tightly.
However, those ordinary disciples did not have the awareness to understand his hardships. They were scolded by the elder for no reason, and although they dared not retort—if they truly had such backbone, Cold Eagle would have felt a bit relieved—they were even more dispirited inside.
They could only hope that Old Six and the others would return soon so they could head back home.
The yellow sand here had truly tormented their handsome skin to an unbearable extent.
"There is one elder-level expert and fourteen ordinary disciples." No one noticed that a pair of eyes was observing them from the peak at that moment. "Village Chief, several elders, let’s proceed according to our previous plan! This time, we not only need to reclaim the village but also teach them a lesson!"
In the distance, a convoy appeared in the sight of the Twin Sword Sect disciples. At first, they were somewhat incredulous, but no matter how much they rubbed their eyes, they could only admit that it was indeed the villagers from Alin Village who had fled in embarrassment before!
"The elder over there..."
"I've already seen it!" One disciple was about to call Cold Eagle over for confirmation when a figure flashed in front of him and coldly said, "You two go up and ask about the situation!"
"Yes." Although this scene was a bit strange, looking at it, they were just a few commoners; what danger could there be? The two disciples quickly agreed and stepped forward.
"Hey! Are you villagers from Alin Village?" The two disciples felt somewhat odd.
Not long ago, they wanted to drive them out completely; now these people returned as if nothing had happened. Moreover, they seemed unafraid of them.
But if Sixth Senior Brother captured them, where was Sixth Senior Brother? Why were none of his fellow brothers around?
"That’s us." Old Village Chief stepped forward to explain. "You two Divine Masters need not resort to violence. We returned this time because we were persuaded by several senior brothers. Rather than blindly bumping around without a target, it’s better to come back honestly and live our lives in our own territory. We hope you two Divine Masters can forgive any past grievances."
"Oh? Is that so?" The two exchanged glances but still felt somewhat uncertain. "Then why were you so stubborn before, causing us to waste so much time? And where is our Sixth Senior Brother? Why didn’t he come back with you?"
"To answer the Divine Masters," they said, "Alin Village still has some elderly and young people. To save time, we simply split into two groups. Our warriors from Alin Village formed one team to go ahead while several Divine Masters protected our elderly and infirm as they returned together, which is why they fell behind."
"I see." The two did not suspect further; after all, in terms of strength, they were far inferior to Sixth Senior Brother and his group. There was no possibility of turning the tables; even if they had won by luck for a moment, they would have fled far away instead of returning to seek death.
"However, whether or not we can accept your surrender is not up to Sixth Senior Brother; it depends on our Cold Eagle elder. You should come with us first."
"Yes, yes, yes, please have the two Divine Masters introduce themselves."
Old Village Chief performed very well, and the group smoothly followed the two disciples of the Twin Sword Sect into the village.
"Tian Huang, what is going on?"
"Reporting to Cold Eagle Elder, Sixth Senior Brother and the others have succeeded. These people were persuaded back by Sixth Senior Brother. This is just a small group that arrived first; there are still many elderly, weak, sick, and disabled people being escorted by Sixth Senior Brother himself."
"Is that so?" Cold Eagle nodded slightly, suddenly revealing a cold smile. He swiftly appeared in the middle of the group, startling Old Village Chief and the others. "Do you think such a lowly lie can deceive us?"
"Uh, what does this Divine Master mean? Even if we had the courage of heaven, we wouldn't dare to deceive you all!"
"Shut up! Not to mention the previous battle; each of you has shown a willingness to die. Do you really think I don't know Old Six's character? If he truly achieved this merit, would he be so 'concerned about the greater good' and hold back? He would have rushed to the front to claim credit! If I'm not mistaken, you received help from some powerful expert and dealt with Old Six and the others, right?"
"Divine Master, you jest! You jest!" Cold sweat poured down Old Village Chief, and the others felt uneasy, not expecting this Cold Eagle Elder to be so astute!
"Jesting! This is no jest at all. That expert likely wants to help you take back the village and is now among your ranks!" A cold shout shattered their plans and suppressed their fighting spirit. Seizing the moment of confusion among the crowd, Cold Eagle took action directly. The fierce Primordial Power gathered in his right hand and suddenly struck towards a wooden box surrounded by Old Village Chief, Ying Sang, and others!
