I don't know what happened here, but so many people have died.

As Mo Lin walked further up the mountain, the corpses became more numerous.

Until Mo Lin reached the mountaintop.

The ground was covered with corpses.

These corpses should be the Daoist Temple disciples; all of them were dead now.

A man with blood flowing from his body stood straight on the ground, with Seven-Colored Wish Power surging from him.

This man had a long sword piercing through his chest, leaving a bloody hole.

He seemed to have gone through a fierce battle.

The whole Daoist Temple was wiped out; only he survived.

The man's pupils suddenly fixed on Mo Lin, and he raised his right hand, gathering Seven-Colored Wish Power in the air.

"You dogs, I will not hand over the City God Lady's immortal body to you."

The man roared at Mo Lin.

"You Ghost-catching Celestial Masters are truly despicable, acting in the name of saving the world yet doing the most vile things. Hypocrites."

"Senior, you've misunderstood. I'm not from the Ghost-catching Celestial Master Mansion." Mo Lin explained to the man.

"Don't lie, I won't believe you." The man absolutely did not believe Mo Lin.

"My name is Mo Lin, Celestial..." Mo Lin hadn't finished before the man interrupted.

The man struggled to support his body, coming to stand in front of Mo Lin.

"Are you the Mo Lin who saved the City God Lady's statue in the Eastern Domain?" The man looked at Mo Lin with a suspicious expression.

"Yes." Mo Lin nodded.

"I heard you have the Netherworld's Nether Fire?" The man wanted Mo Lin to use the Netherworld's Nether Fire to prove his identity.

"Correct." Mo Lin raised his right hand, and pitch-black flames danced in his palm.

Seeing the black flames, the man was convinced that the person in front of him was indeed Mo Lin.

"Quickly, take the City God Lady's immortal body and leave." The man handed Mo Lin a white bottle and urged him.

"Leave quickly, or you won't be able to when the Ghost-catching Celestial Master Mansion people arrive."

This white bottle contained the City God Lady's immortal body.

"Senior, could you tell me what happened?" Mo Lin asked the man.

"The Ghost-catching Celestial Master Mansion people want to destroy the City God Lady's statue and seize the City God Lady's immortal body. I snuck it away earlier to protect it.

Yesterday, your uproar in the Eastern Domain prompted the Ghost-catching Celestial Masters to realize the City God Lady's immortal body wasn't there but with me instead, so they came to trouble me." Jing Ziling gave a bitter smile.

Previously, the Ghost-catching Celestial Masters weren't certain that Jing Ziling had the City God Lady's immortal body.

They merely suspected it.

But after Mo Lin's uproar in the Eastern Domain yesterday, they discovered the statue did not contain the immortal body.

They thus became certain that the City God Lady's immortal body was with Jing Ziling.

That led to a bloody battle.

All the disciples in Jing Ziling's Daoist Temple were killed.

This explained why Mo Lin hadn't encountered any significant threats during his uproar in the Eastern Domain.

Those people had come to deal with Jing Ziling.

Mo Lin hadn't expected that, in such chaotic times, Jing Ziling was such a kindhearted person.

The City God Lady's immortal body had nothing to do with him.

Yet he resolutely chose to protect the City God Lady's immortal body.

This surprised Mo Lin a bit.

"Tell me, senior, why did you choose to protect the City God Lady's immortal body?" Mo Lin asked the curious question to Jing Ziling.

"Because I dislike the ways of the Ghost-catching Celestial Master Mansion."

Jing Ziling answered decisively.

He simply couldn't stand the Ghost-catching Celestial Masters coveting the City God Lady's immortal body.

"More people are coming, you better leave quickly." Jing Ziling urged Mo Lin to depart.

As Jing Ziling spoke, a young man appeared directly ahead.

This young man wore black clothing, holding a Copper Coin Sword in his right hand.

"Jing Ziling, hand over the City God Lady's immortal body." Chang Hui said to Jing Ziling bluntly.

"What City God Lady's immortal body? I'm not sure." Jing Ziling replied coldly.

"Jing Ziling, you're quite stubborn. Do you think I'd come to bother you without knowing anything?"

Chang Hui sneered, "Are you stupid? All your disciples are dead, and you still refuse to hand over the City God Immortal body. What good does that do you? What do you gain?"

Chang Hui didn't understand why Jing Ziling would do something with no benefit at all.

"I just can't stand your Ghost-catching Celestial Master Mansion's ways, I just want to prove that in this world, there are good people."

That was Jing Ziling's genuine thought.

The City God had protected the Eastern Domain for hundreds of years, and he didn't want the City God to be taken away by ill-intentioned people.

"Good people don't usually live long."

As the words fell, Chang Hui thrust his Copper Coin Sword at Jing Ziling.

Jing Ziling, already severely wounded, could only brace himself and endure Chang Hui's attack.

Just as the Copper Coin Longsword was about to pierce Jing Ziling, the Netherworld's Nether Fire surged out, blocking Chang Hui's attack in front of Jing Ziling.

Seeing someone meddling, Chang Hui frowned slightly and rushed directly at Mo Lin.

Mo Lin swung his right hand fiercely, and the Netherworld's Nether Fire surged out again, directly enveloping Chang Hui.

Chang Hui unhurriedly threw out the Copper Coin Sword.

The Copper Coin Sword floated in the air, then suddenly broke apart, one copper coin after another floating to block the attack of the Netherworld's Nether Fire.

Mo Lin raised his right hand, and his forefinger and thumb touched together, gathering Five-Color Wishing Power.

"Wish Power Magnet!"

Seeing Mo Lin's move, Chang Hui exclaimed in surprise.

Then Five-Color Wishing Power surged from Mo Lin's hand, piercing straight through Chang Hui's body.

Ending Chang Hui's life.

When Mo Lin turned around, he saw Jing Ziling lying flat on the ground.

His face was ashen, devoid of any reddish vitality.

Mo Lin moved forward, wanting to take Jing Ziling to treat his wounds.

Jing Ziling grabbed Mo Lin's hand, shook his head, and said, "Don't waste your time, I won't survive."

He was very aware of his physical condition.

Before Mo Lin had arrived, he had been holding on with his last breath and not fallen.

"Young brother, take the City God Lady and leave." Even in death, Jing Ziling did not complain.

He was still considering matters concerning the City God Lady.

Truth be told, this kind of good person.

It was Mo Lin's first time encountering one.

Jing Ziling was purely a hopelessly good person.

To save the City God Lady's immortal body, he sacrificed all his disciples' lives, even his own.

"A man of great righteousness."

Mo Lin stood up, bowing deeply to Jing Ziling's corpse, then said, "I will definitely seek justice for you."

"Someone like you shouldn't die like this here."

As the words fell, Mo Lin went forward, carrying Jing Ziling's body to seek accountability from the Ghost-catching Celestial Master Mansion.

The night descended!

The Ghost-catching Celestial Master Mansion was aglow with light.

The Ghost-catching Celestial Master Mansion disciples were patrolling in an orderly manner.

There were also night watchmen at the gate, with some disciples on ghost-catching missions.

In the pitch-black night.

A Five-Color Wishing Power Longsword descended from the sky.

The Ghost-catching Celestial Master Mansion's front yard and main gate were directly split in two.

A deafening voice resounded throughout the Ghost-catching Celestial Master Mansion.

"Mo Lin of the Celestial Sect, here to seek justice for Jing Ziling."

A man, carrying a corpse, slowly approached the Ghost-catching Celestial Master Mansion gate.

Mo Lin's voice echoed in every corner.
