Just as they stepped out, a Flying Tower Ship from the Celestial Splendor Sect descended, landing right before their eyes. One by one, disciples from the Celestial Splendor Sect and the Great Dream Immortal Sect disembarked. Their expressions were somewhat strained; after all, the scene they had just witnessed was deeply etched into their minds. The Merfolk King had been slain, and the sea itself bore a massive crater. The members of the Profound Yellow Sect were terrifyingly powerful. However, upon disembarking, they immediately saw the players casting spells to rebuild the damaged dam.

"Is this the power of the Profound Yellow Sect? Why are even those in the Qi Cultivation Realm so strong?"

"I'm in the Foundation Establishment Realm, just like that person, but now I feel like he could kill me with a single punch. I wonder if it's just my imagination."

"This must be the Profound Yellow Sect's Cultivation Technique, right? It truly is a heaven-defying creation."

"Being able to kill the Merfolk King, they've actually done something our Celestial Flower Sect couldn't manage!"

"We don't know these techniques either. How could we possibly help them?"

Upon seeing the newcomers, Xu Nian, accompanied by the Blood Demoness, leaped down from the city wall.

"Sect Leader Sun? What brings you all here?" Xu Nian asked, somewhat surprised to see so many of them.

Has the Celestial Splendor Sect already dealt with the Sea Race? So quickly? It seems I underestimated the Celestial Splendor Sect's strength; I didn't think they could withstand the Sea Race's invasion.

"The Sea Race from the Celestial Splendor Sect's territory headed this way, so we brought people to assist," Sect Leader Sun explained. "To be frank, your sect's disciples have left us utterly astonished. Sect Leader Xu, please don't be too disheartened. The Sea Race is formidable, it's true. Although your talented disciple perished, as Sect Leader, you must look to the future, mustn't you?"

Hmm??? Is this guy trying to console me?

Xu Nian looked at Sect Leader Sun and the others, puzzled. At that moment, everyone from the Celestial Splendor Sect regarded him with expressions full of pity and sympathy.

What's going on? My Profound Yellow Sect has withstood two waves of attacks from the Sea Race. What's with those looks?

"Sect Leader Xu, I have witnessed all that your Profound Yellow Sect has done for the Human Race," the Fifth Elder of the Great Dream Immortal Sect said, cupping his hands. "On behalf of the Human Race, I thank your sect. However, the dead cannot be resurrected. Please..."

Before he could finish, Old Mo and the disciples who had previously been killed by friendly fire ran over.

"Damn, that impact was brutal! I was knocked completely senseless."

"You got off easy! Flourishing Flowers had it the worst. When he was sent flying, I saw his head smash against the dam—it exploded on impact!"

"Get lost! That was an accident. Who knew opening the Death Gate would be so powerful?"

"It was my first time opening the Death Gate too. I really didn't mean to hurt everyone just now."

The group quickly greeted Xu Nian and then headed straight for the dam to help with the rebuilding efforts.

The Fifth Elder of the Great Dream Immortal Sect stared at Old Mo's retreating back, utterly speechless.

What in the world? Didn't this kid just perish alongside the Merfolk King? How is he here now, perfectly fine? He looks exactly like the boy from before!

Xu Nian looked at the players diligently repairing the dam and said, "Everyone, leave this to our Profound Yellow Sect. You should all go rest back there. Don't come here and cause trouble; we'd only have to divert our attention to look after you." He then addressed the Blood Demoness, "Blood Demoness, take them to Hailong Town to rest. Get them some tea or something, and make sure they don't cause any more problems. I'm going to check on the dam construction."

With that said, he paid no further attention to the people from the Celestial Splendor Sect and the Great Dream Immortal Sect.

Everyone: ???

Are we being shunned? And another thing! What in the world is going on with that disciple of yours? He was clearly blown to bits—so many of us saw it! Why is he perfectly fine and standing here now?

The Blood Demoness looked at the crowd and said with a smile, "Everyone, please, this way. It's best to leave things here to Xu Nian and his people. If you were to go over, you might genuinely just get in the way..."
