Chapter 2089 - 2079: Human Nature and Reality (Third Update)

From Chen Zijie’s words, it can be heard that there is a profound friendship between the Green Cloud Island and Deadly Valley sects!

Deadly Valley and Green Cloud Island originally belonged to completely different cultivation domains.

In fact,

The two major sects belong to the powers of two major continents!

It’s just because they are both located at the junction of the two sides, and the distance is very close!

Years ago, when Deadly Valley was besieged by other demon sects, Green Cloud Island came to their aid!

Apart from purely wanting to help Deadly Valley, Green Cloud Island also considered the principle that if the lips are gone, the teeth will feel cold!

With the nature of those demon sects, if they exterminated Deadly Valley, the next target would likely be Green Cloud Island!

Green Cloud Island is deep overseas, far from most sects, making it very difficult to support!

The current encounter with the siege from Xingluo Mansion is just such a situation!

"I only want Tang Shuqi, I won’t interfere with anything else!"

Lin Tian nodded, finally saying to Chen Zijie.

Just now when his Divine Sense swept over the island, Lin Tian had already discovered something amiss.

Because those young boys and girls dressed similarly to Chen Zijie were currently all imprisoned in the small building on the island.

Some even had been killed.

Judging from those attires, they should all be disciples of Green Cloud Island!

A group of people exuding a cold and evil aura was squatting around the small building.

Among them, a young man leading a few others was already walking towards them with a friendly smile on his face.

But the few of them were simultaneously exuding an intense murderous intent and hostility!

However, Lin Tian remained unfazed, following Chen Zijie.

"Senior, if you are looking for Tang Shuqi, I will talk to them!"

Regarding Lin Tian’s words, Chen Zijie was actually more at ease.

What she feared most was Lin Tian causing a commotion, directly clashing with the people from Deadly Valley, which would be troublesome.

"Brother Cao Feng!"

Ahead, Liang Pei’er, who was leading the way, had already excitedly gone up to meet the appearing young man.

"Junior Sister Chen Zijie meets Brother Cao!"

Chen Zijie stepped forward, hurriedly saluting, and said gratefully, "Thanks to Brother Cao’s assistance this time, otherwise our fellow disciples might not have had the chance to escape here! How are they now? Were they discovered by people from Xingluo Mansion or Cross Heavenly Court on the way?"

"I’ve long heard of the seventh junior sister of Green Cloud Island, truly a beauty with talent!"

On the opposite side, Cao Feng’s eyes suddenly brightened, and with a hint of fervor in his gaze towards Chen Zijie, he said with a smile, "Rest assured, Junior Sister, I’ve arranged everything well! Now it’s your turn..."

"Thank you, Brother Cao!"

Chen Zijie’s face relaxed slightly, expressing her gratitude.

The surviving disciples of the sect are the hope of the sect!

If anything happens to them, and Green Cloud Island cannot withstand it, then the sect would truly be nearly wiped out!

"No need to be polite, Junior Sister! Our two sects are branches of the same tree, helping is only right!"

Cao Feng gave a gentle smile and with a graceful gesture, said, "Please follow me, Junior Sister. Let’s discuss strategies with my master and see how we can help Green Cloud Island out of this crisis!"

"Alright!"

Chen Zijie was overjoyed and hurried to follow.

Liang Pei’er, Muu Xinrui, and others all breathed a sigh of relief, showing joy on their faces.

Green Cloud Island has hope, nothing could be better!

For them, Green Cloud Island is their home!

Their master and the elders of their sect are like family, as close as flesh and blood!

Now their master and others are in crisis, but they cannot return, making them feel anxious!

The fact that Deadly Valley might have a way to help makes them all very excited!

"Wait a moment!"

When they reached the front of the small building, Lin Tian suddenly called out to stop, then looked at Cao Feng, smiling, "Since we’re here, why not let the other disciples of Green Cloud Island come out? The seventh senior sister of the sect is here; not welcoming them seems rather rude!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Zijie, Liang Pei’er, and others were momentarily stunned, looking at Lin Tian in surprise.

Given the current situation, whether to welcome them seemed irrelevant to them!

Earlier, when they saw people from Xingluo Mansion besieging the sect, the scene might have frightened these young junior brothers and sisters badly!

But in front, Cao Feng’s expression stiffened slightly, scrutinizing Lin Tian with confusion, and then said to Chen Zijie, "He is not one of Green Cloud Island’s disciples, is he?"

"Uh..."

Chen Zijie was slightly taken aback, momentarily at a loss for how to explain.

But Lin Tian spoke again, saying, "We are friends! You should let the other disciples of Green Cloud Island come out. A crowd crammed into this small building doesn’t seem right! We cultivators are not bound by convention!"

"Hmm?"

Cao Feng’s face suddenly darkened, his eyes narrowed, glaring at Lin Tian for a while, then sneered, "Alright, then let’s do it here!"

"Brother Yu Wen, you can come now!"

At this point, Cao Feng swiftly retreated a small step to the side.

Just as he finished speaking.

Dozens of figures emerged from the dense forest of the island.

These people were wearing black robes, each carrying a disturbing Yin Qi that made one’s skin crawl.

The leading man’s face was even covered with bizarre and frightening patterns.

"People from Xingluo Mansion!"

Seeing these people, Chen Zijie immediately exclaimed in shock, shouting, "He is one of the top ten disciples of Xingluo Mansion, Yu Wenzheng!"

As she finished her sentence, Chen Zijie pulled Liang Pei’er and Muu Xinrui back a distance.

But behind them, Xingluo Mansion’s other members had already blocked their retreat.

"Cao Feng! What do you mean by this, Deadly Valley?"

Chen Zijie’s gaze turned icy as she stared directly at Cao Feng, rebuking.

Muu Xinrui and others, frightened, hid behind Chen Zijie.

This time, Liang Pei’er also realized something was wrong and questioned Cao Feng, "Did Xingluo Mansion threaten you, or have you sided with them, Deadly Valley?"

"Haha... Chen Zijie of Green Cloud Island, I’ve heard of you! It’s truly flattering to be recognized by you, Yu Wenzheng!"

Ahead, among Xingluo Mansion’s disciples, the leading Yu Wenzheng laughed heartily, approaching Chen Zijie and licking his lips, sneering, "A mere Deadly Valley doesn’t need Xingluo Mansion’s threat, just given some benefits, it directly became Xingluo Mansion’s running dog!"

Deadly Valley betrayed them!

Appearing to lend a helping hand, they actually stabbed them in the back!

Chen Zijie and Liang Pei’er immediately understood what was going on.

"Cao Feng, all of you from Deadly Valley are such ungrateful wretches!"

Chen Zijie, unable to contain her anger, shouted sharply.

Liang Pei’er and others also glared fiercely, their faces filled with resentment.

"Hehe... It’s all because your Green Cloud Island was ignorant! You brought this upon yourselves!"

Cao Feng was indifferent, sneering, "Your fate is sealed, don’t struggle anymore!"

Hearing this, Chen Zijie couldn’t help but fall silent.

But her hands were clenched tightly together, her body trembling.

Whether from anger or helplessness, no one knew!

At this moment, she couldn’t help but think of what Lin Tian said before, with profit as the primary concern!

The human heart is terrifying to the extreme!

Just a moment ago, she was still speaking with certainty, yet the brutal reality immediately unfolded before her!

"Surrender, kneel, and abolish your own cultivation!"

Yu Wenzheng’s face darkened, shouting with a murderous aura, "Not acting within ten breaths, kill without mercy!"

Boom~

As soon as he finished speaking, the cultivators of Xingluo Mansion emanated waves of terrifying auras.
