Xu Wendong unleashes his Thunder Swords, slaughtering everyone present in the valley and seizing their wealth. Loli narrowly escapes, while Li Jiayin watches in awe. Xu Wendong amasses a fortune in Nether Crystals, vastly exceeding his initial investment, and splits the spoils with Li Jiayin.

"Let’s go, let’s head back first. We’re about to rendezvous with the Elders." The little bell on Li Jiayin’s wrist trembled slightly, letting out a crisp, pleasant chime.

She lifted her head and looked toward the direction of the Heavenly Nether Sect, her eyes filled with anticipation. Over there, eight figures were flashing toward them like lightning.

Xu Wendong nodded and flew over that way together with Li Jiayin.

Their figures slowly disappeared into the afterglow of the setting sun, leaving behind a deathly silent valley and a scene of utter ruin.

...

Heavenly Nether Domain.

All the major powers received, almost at the same time, the news that the people they had dispatched were dead.

In countless clans, Lifebound Soul Lamps that symbolized their Disciples’ lives suddenly went out, and Lifebound Jade Pendants shattered without the slightest warning.

And the ones who died were all Tongyou Realm experts—pillars of strength within their clans.

Some small clans had only a handful of Tongyou Realm experts to begin with; now, after losing so many in quick succession, their Primordial Energy was severely damaged, and the clan’s strength plummeted overnight.

Inside the Fire Lotus Saint Sect.

An Elder who was in seclusion suddenly snapped his eyes open, a sharp light flashing within them.

A Jade Pendant in his hand abruptly exploded without warning, and a single drop of fresh blood slowly seeped out from it, dripped onto the ground, and instantly evaporated, leaving behind only a faint bloodstain.

"What happened? How did Bai Wu die?" The Elder’s voice was low and hoarse, carrying an undisguised shock and fury.

"He was a Core Disciple of my Fire Lotus Saint Sect. Who had the guts to lay a hand on him?"

Raging flames roared up in the old man’s eyes, and his Yin Energy surged like a burst dam, erupting in an instant and flooding the entire secret chamber.

The tables and chairs in the chamber shook under the impact of this powerful Yin Energy, creaking non-stop.

"Someone come! I want to know exactly what happened!" The old man bellowed, his voice like a thunderclap that resounded throughout the entire Fire Lotus Saint Sect.

The Disciples within the Fire Lotus Saint Sect all trembled in fear when they heard this roar. Terror filled their faces as they wondered what great disaster had occurred.

At the same time.

In the main hall of the Divine Yin Hall, the atmosphere was as oppressive as the night before a storm.

Elders from all sides wore stern expressions and grim faces.

On the high seat of the great hall sat a burly middle-aged man. He was the Hall Master of the Divine Yin Hall.

The Hall Master emanated a powerful aura that made people instinctively fear him.

"Hall Master, all the Disciples our Divine Yin Hall sent to Wu Family City this time are dead." An Elder stepped forward and reported in a low voice.

"From what I know, those Disciples seemed to have all been hunting down that Lin Mo from the Heavenly Nether Sect." Another Elder added.

"This matter can’t be separated from that Lin Mo!" The Elders all began to discuss. The Divine Yin Hall had poured enormous resources and effort into cultivating those few Disciples, yet they had all died outside Wu Family City—this was simply shocking.

"What about my Disciple?" The Divine Yin Hall’s Hall Master had eyes as cold as a deep, still pond. He cared only about the safety of his Direct Disciple, Loli.

The Elders all glanced at one another, none of them knowing where Loli was.

At that very moment, a graceful figure stumbled and staggered into the great hall.

It was Loli. Her hair was disheveled, her clothes in disarray, and her face was full of panic.

"Master!" Loli’s voice trembled, carrying endless terror.

She had finally managed to escape back, yet the soul-stirring scene still replayed in her mind over and over, impossible to erase.

"Lili, outside Wu Family City, what exactly happened?" Seeing Loli return safely, the Divine Yin Hall’s Hall Master finally let out a breath of relief, but he quickly recovered his stern expression and harshly questioned her.

Hearing this, Loli seemed to be hit by a massive shock. Her legs went weak, and she collapsed to the ground with a panicked expression.

Her eyes were filled with fear and despair, and her body wouldn’t stop trembling.

"Martial niece, the Hall Master is asking you a question!" An Elder walked forward, concern in his eyes.

He channeled a strand of Soul Power into Loli’s body, trying to forcibly soothe her taut nerves a little.

But Loli was still so frightened that she couldn’t speak. The bloody scene in that valley was far too cruel; she never wanted to experience something like that again in her life.

Her lips quivered as she tried to speak, but fear choked her throat.

Everyone was dumbfounded by this sight.

Just what had happened that could scare the usually arrogant and domineering, utterly fearless Loli into such a state?

The hall fell deathly silent. Everyone held their breath and waited for Loli to speak.

"Lili! You don’t have to be afraid. This is the Divine Yin Hall; you are already safe." The Hall Master’s voice softened a bit, but still carried an unquestionable authority.

When this voice fell into Loli’s ears, her expression immediately loosened. The taut string of her nerves snapped all at once, and she burst into tears with a wail.

"Dead... they’re all dead!" Loli sobbed as she spoke, her miserable voice echoing through the great hall.

"Master, it was so terrifying. That Lin Mo from the Heavenly Nether Sect is a complete madman. He... he killed everyone."

Loli’s voice was full of fear: "Over a thousand experts, all of them were suppressed and killed by him in that valley. If Lili hadn’t entered the formation, I probably wouldn’t have made it back either."

Everyone in the Divine Yin Hall drastically changed expression.

The dead weren’t just their Divine Yin Hall’s Disciples, but people from all the other powers as well. The number had actually reached over a thousand, and all of them had died?

How was that possible?

The crowd was filled with shock and doubt. Was that something a human could do?

Just a mere Heavenly Nether Sect Disciple—what right did he have to suppress and kill a thousand people?

Even if a Ghost Control Realm powerhouse made a move, it would still take quite a bit of effort, wouldn’t it?

"Lili, you go and rest first." The Divine Yin Hall’s Hall Master frowned, his face extremely ugly.

Complicated light flashed in his eyes—there was anger, shock, and a faint trace of worry.

After Loli left, a fierce gleam flickered in the Hall Master’s eyes. "Everyone, what do you think of this?"

"Hall Master, of course we must avenge them! That Heavenly Nether Sect Disciple is so audacious that he actually dared to kill people from my Divine Yin Hall. He’s simply courting death!" An Elder said righteously, his fists clenched tight.

"We should storm the Heavenly Nether Sect and force them to hand over that brat." Another Elder chimed in, his eyes blazing with anger.

Hearing this, the Hall Master let out a cold laugh, with a hint of mockery in it.

"A Heavenly Pride Disciple who can suppress and kill a thousand people, a top-tier talent who possesses the Painting Saint Carving Knife—do you really think the Heavenly Nether Sect will hand him over to you for disposal?"

"Immediately investigate everything about Lin Mo. I want to know who he really is!" The Hall Master’s tone was icy, carrying an unquestionable majesty.

"And inform Zhang Jiu Fang that once the Nether Ruins open this time, he will have a rival!"

With that, the many Elders withdrew like the receding tide.

Their steps were hurried, their expressions grave, each one going off to carry out his orders.

This battle in the valley was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, destined to stir up towering waves across the Heavenly Nether Domain!
