The speed of the two was like lightning in the eyes of ordinary people, but whether it was because Flower San Niang had not grasped it herself or the quality of the Skyward Martial Arts she practiced was too low, in any case, their speed was far slower than Ye Tian had anticipated.
"Is the journey long and complicated?" Ye Tian asked.
With Whispers howling around them, Flower San Niang was doing her utmost to hurry. However, what felt like a significant increase in speed to her seemed like a burden to Ye Tian.
Due to the noise from Whispers, Flower San Niang did not clearly hear Ye Tian's words; she could only vaguely guess what he meant and began gesturing while mumbling something unintelligible.
Ye Tian frowned slightly. Time was of the essence; he had already delayed for so long that even a moment's delay could cost another life.
"Stop. Show me the way. I'll go ahead, and you can catch up later," Ye Tian said as he pulled Flower San Niang, who was still straining to move forward.
She was taken aback and finally understood Ye Tian's words. A look of disappointment and shame crossed her face before she pointed out the location of Star Hall.
After hearing this, Ye Tian thanked her and immediately set off. Fortunately, Star Hall was not too far from their current location; half an hour was enough time to reach it.
Without Flower San Niang slowing him down, Ye Tian indeed made rapid progress. He used less than half an hour to arrive at the vicinity of Star Hall.
Ahead, a building resembling a deep courtyard appeared before him, with faint shouts echoing from within. It seemed that the Abbot of the Arhat Hall had already arrived and was on a killing spree.
This place was situated within a mountain range, well-hidden; it was surrounded by mountains on three sides—east, west, and south—with only a northern entrance left open.
This structure, which was easy to defend but hard to attack, had been left by the bandits who once occupied this area. Later, when the bandits were wiped out by the Lin family, they simply took over and established Star Hall here.
However, easy to defend but hard to attack only applied if there were capable defenders at the gate. Inside Star Hall, there was no one who could contend with the Abbot of the Arhat Hall, which directly led to a situation where it was not only easy to defend but also akin to shooting fish in a barrel.
Ye Tian furrowed his brow deeply; as he got closer, the sounds of shouting and killing grew louder. Along with muffled thuds, it seemed that inside, the situation had devolved into a massacre led by the Abbot of the Arhat Hall.
About a cup of tea's time later, Ye Tian finally stood before the main gate. Given that the Abbot of the Arhat Hall was ultimately alone in strength, there were still a few survivors who managed to escape.
The person before him had just burst out from the gate as if escaping death itself and nearly collided with Ye Tian.
Ye Tian intended to instinctively help him, but unexpectedly, the person was already terrified and swung his sword in panic. At the same time, he shouted something about Asuras, hell, and that everyone was dead.
Frowning at him, Ye Tian deeply sensed the seriousness of the situation. It seemed that the Abbot of the Arhat Hall had arrived long ago, and the number of people who had died at his hands would certainly not be small.
Avoiding the blade by sidestepping, Ye Tian continued to dash into the courtyard. The previously seemingly insane guard saw that Ye Tian had no intention of engaging him and quickly fled again.
This was a deep residence with three courtyards. The first courtyard was filled with guest rooms, somewhat similar to the Wang family’s layout, with over ten guest rooms on each side, each capable of accommodating about five people.
At this moment, cries of slaughter were coming from the second courtyard, sounding exceptionally tragic. However, it did not seem like the shouts were from a fierce battle; they resembled cries of horror as if witnessing something terrifying beyond human comprehension.
Between the first and second courtyards stood a large door, about twenty feet high and very heavy, currently tightly closed.
As Ye Tian prepared to open the door, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a head poking out from the Wall in his peripheral vision.
He realized that this was someone from the Star Hall trying to escape. Since the door was sealed, they could only climb over the Wall to flee.
Ye Tian wanted to help him and was about to move when he suddenly noticed something strange: the person's head began to tremble violently and then exploded!
“Gasp…”
Even Ye Tian couldn't help but take a sharp breath. After the person's head exploded, a plump, milky-white creature crawled out!
“No wonder!”
Before this, Ye Tian had been puzzled as to why a mere Abbot of the Arhat Hall could instill such fear in those from the Star Hall. It turned out to be like this!
Faced with such a terrifying creature, Ye Tian felt goosebumps rise on his skin.
This wasn't fear; it was revulsion, making one feel sick at first glance and wanting to avoid it at all costs.
Taking a deep breath to steady himself, Ye Tian reached out to push the large door.
However, when he pushed it, the door did not budge at all; it felt as if something was blocking it completely.
This caused a surge of anger to rise inexplicably within Ye Tian, and the golden light in his palm suddenly intensified as he slammed it against the door.
Bang!
Accompanied by an explosion sound, the heavy Bronze Door shattered into pieces, and then a figure nearly ten feet tall flew into the courtyard along with the door.
It turned out to be Lu Ba!
He had braced himself against the door, no wonder it wouldn't budge.
Ye Tian stepped into the Inner Courtyard, and the scene before him made him gasp in horror once again.
The ground was littered with corpses, and almost every body was headless. The originally gray stone slabs were completely stained red with blood, and many milky brain fluids mixed in, with shattered skulls scattered everywhere...
Looking at the living people still struggling, none were without extreme fear; their faces were twisted in terror. Some were screaming madly, others sat on the ground in a daze waiting for death, and some even begged others to kill them to end their suffering.
Buzzing...
A sound like buzzing flies reached his ears. Ye Tian's hand moved like lightning, grabbing something flying towards him.
Opening his palm, he found only a small red dot remaining; the insect had already vanished.
At this moment, even Ye Tian couldn't help but feel alarmed. This kind of insect could instantly burrow into a person's body and then travel through the blood vessels to the brain, ultimately feeding on blood and expanding its body until it burst open its host's skull...
"Not good!" Ye Tian thought to himself. That insect had already burrowed into his blood vessel before he even got a clear look at it!
He quickly activated his Divine Consciousness to probe within himself; under its influence, every detail of his body became clear.
Zzzzz...
A sound like melting came from within him, and he saw that the insect had turned to ashes in the blood vessel in his palm.
No, it was more than that; there was not even ash left—it was completely obliterated.
“Crimson Dragon Golden Blood!” Ye Tian suddenly awakened, realizing that the Crimson Dragon belonged to the Primeval era, and such a powerful being's blood could not be tainted by mere insects.
“Hahaha, you still came!”
Suddenly, a deep voice filled with madness broke through the chaotic noise.
Without needing to ask, it was clear that this voice belonged to the Abbot of the Arhat Hall.
Ye Tian looked up and saw a chaotic crowd in front of him, where a White-Haired Elder sat on a large chair, gazing at him with a light laugh.
His smile was so cruel and satisfied, holding a cup of tea in his hand, as if he found immense pleasure in this hellish scene before him.
“You are so devoid of humanity; don’t you think you have committed too many sins?” Ye Tian coldly reprimanded, knowing without question that these monstrous insects were certainly being controlled by the Abbot of the Arhat Hall through some secret technique.
“Sins?” Abbot of the Arhat Hall scoffed disdainfully and said, “What do you call sins?”
With narrowed pupils, Ye Tian remained silent as golden light began to emanate from his palm.
“Haha, don’t be hasty. If you kill me, these Blood Leeches will lose control. By then, not just the Star Hall, but perhaps the entire Southern Wilderness Town will suffer.” It seemed that Abbot of the Arhat Hall had seen through Ye Tian's thoughts.
“You truly deserve to die!” Ye Tian gritted his teeth and spoke each word clearly.
Once again, Abbot of the Arhat Hall laughed heartily. In such a nauseating scene, he slowly took a sip of tea before speaking: “You say I deserve to die and that I commit sins. But did they consider these when the Lin family slaughtered my Arhat Hall?”
“Are our lives like those of ants, meant to be slaughtered by them?!” At this moment, Abbot of the Arhat Hall’s tone suddenly turned harsh, his eyes shooting out two chilling glints.
“Bullshit!” Ye Tian was furious; he could no longer control his emotions. In just a few sentences, several heads exploded, and the heart-wrenching screams and the sight of blood splattering everywhere deeply impacted Ye Tian's nerves.
“Power struggles are normal in competition; however, you use such inhumane methods to torment and harm!” Ye Tian felt his back teeth chattering. If possible, he truly wanted to crush Abbot of the Arhat Hall’s head to let him experience this kind of pain.
Upon hearing this, Abbot of the Arhat Hall seemed to calm down. He gave Ye Tian a cold smile and sat back down slowly before saying: “Your strength and cunning—honestly, I admire them. But ultimately, you are still too young.”
Ye Tian’s nostrils flared; he could hardly tolerate the other’s demeanor any longer. If he allowed him to continue speaking, he feared he would disregard the consequences and directly eliminate him.
However, the Abbot of the Arhat Hall ignored Ye Tian's anger and continued, "Death, what difference does it make? Whether by knife or by fist, or by them..."
The Abbot of the Arhat Hall reached out and held a Blood Leech in his palm, saying, "What difference does it make? The outcome is still death."
Ye Tianxin was taken aback. Indeed, in the struggle for power, all means are employed. Since the Lin family could ruthlessly destroy the Arhat Hall, why couldn't the Abbot of the Arhat Hall use even more ruthless methods for revenge?
"You still come from the Cloud Sea Sect. Hmph, as far as I know, the methods your Cloud Sea Sect used to rise in the past were probably several times more sinister!" The Abbot of the Arhat Hall looked at Ye Tian with mockery, as if he were looking at an inexperienced child.
Buzz...
Ye Tian was once again shaken. Could it be true? The prestigious Cloud Sea Sect, renowned far and wide, actually rose to power using even more insidious methods?
No, he must be talking nonsense!
The Cloud Sea Sect has Extreme Martial Arts like Phantom Cloud; why would they need to resort to such despicable means? But why would he say that?
Ye Tian suddenly realized that he must have seen the Blood Leech burrowing into his body and was waiting to see his head explode!
However, he would likely be disappointed!
