Chapter 138 Demon Race

After hours of running, the students from the Frozen Wraith Sect finally found a way to get rid of the bats and that was by swimming into water. Luckily enough, the four of them didn't sustain any fatal wounds. However, their energy had been depleted and the only reason that they survived was because of the potions that they used to replenish their strengths.

The four of them found a cave where they could rest and recover. Cursing, they could only grit their teeth in silence at the unexpected turn of events as they promised to find those people from the Eight Palms Sect so they could kill them this time. Unbeknownst to them, Fang Yu was already on their way, with the intent to feed them to her tree.

On that night another four disciples of the Frozen Wraith Sect died and no one knew what happened to them. After killing the disciples, Fang Yu went towards the temple and retrieved the treasure. Then she calmly accompanied the others until they explored the whole ruins.

Just as expected, Ji Tian indeed stumbled upon the underground castle. Along with everyone else, Ji Tian led the team in the castle. In the end, the group found some cultivation arts and other herbs inside the castle. After this, Fang Yu and the others gracefully exited the ruins.

...…

The moment Fang Yu and the others left the ruins, they immediately felt a lot of stern gazes towards their way. She eyed the people crowding at the two elders of the Eight Palms Sect. Right now, there are about eleven disciples from the Eight Palms Sect who was able to safely leave the ruins. Out of the twenty people that they sent, this number was already considered good.

Compared to the Eight Palms Sect, the people from the Frozen Wraith Sect were pitifully low. Right now, there is only a total of eight students out of the thirty people that they sent inside. Xiawen Dong's face was so dark, it was as if a dark cloud was looming on his head. He kept on looking at the Eight Palms Sect. After a few hours, another four people from the Eight Palms Sect came out while another two people from Frozen Wraith Sect survived. Still, the numbers were too small compared to the surviving student from other Sects.

Seeing this, Xiawen Dong tried to keep his cool and acted as if it does not affect him at all. Of course, this made Fang Yu elated. Watching Xiawen Dong unhappy was enough to make her day. She watched as Xiawen Dong and the other people from the Frozen Wraith Sect left ahead of everyone else.

"Ji Tian, Elder Fang asked me to do some things. I will go ahead and meet you at the sect."

"Of course!" Yunyun answered as she beamed. After knowing that Ji Tian helped her, she had been really kind and jolly around the young man. "If you needed anything. Just say the word. I will definitely pay you back for saving my life."

Fang Yu blinked in response. Why does it seem that Yunyun was talking about other ways to pay her back? Had her mind become so naughty? Fang Yu immediately blamed Mo Li for this matter. If her calculations were right, it had been almost two weeks since she hadn't seen him. It seems that she was starting to miss that man.

"Jin… you have to tell us when you get back, alright?" Yunyun gave her a sweet smile, almost immediately goosebumps littered on Fang Yu's skin. She immediately nodded and bid her goodbye to everyone.

When Fang Yu was sure that no one was watching her, she started running towards Xiawen Dong's direction. She needed to kill that man as soon as possible and avoid complications in the future.

...

Xiawen Dong was in an ugly mood during this trip. First, he didn't see Fang Yu. Second, Ji Tian came out alive and it doesn't look like he was injured. Third, most of his disciples died! Just the thought of these failures was making his head hurt, he wanted to kill someone to vent.

"Did you know who killed them yet?"He asked the woman sitting opposite him. The woman was wearing a thin and short red dress. She had purple hair and beautiful phoenix blue eyes.

"No. I cannot find their bodies." The woman looked at him, biting her lips. The action was simple, yet it made the woman looked more enticing.

"What do you mean? I thought the worm that you gave my disciples would be able to tell us what happened to them?" His face contorted into an ugly scowl. This woman was from the devil race. And she assured everyone that she would be able to tract anyone as long as they swallow a worm that came from her own body.

"I— husband… I really don't know what happened. But the worm inside their bodies vanished. No… they didn't vanish. It's just that I lost my connections with them."

"What does that mean?"

"I— I don't know. Maybe they are in a different dimension?"

"You mean… the people who killed them are not from this dimension? Is it someone from the devil race?"

"No… I… let's not forget that the ruins were left by someone from the demon race. Meaning, there could be some demons inside the ruins."

"You think that my disciples were killed by demons?" His face turned even uglier.

"Yes… that is the only possibility that I can think of. Plus… the other sects would dare attack our people. Moreover, the people from the Eight Palms Sect are weaker than our people. That is the only possibility that I could think of." She fidgeted and bit her lips again. "I think… I think that would also explain how these people died. Maybe someone from the Demon Race dragged them into their world."

Xiawen Dong fell into silence. Why the hell would the demons attack someone from the Frozen Wraith Sect? "Demons and Devils are enemies, right?"

"Yes— Yes husband."

"Then… then… the demons must have smelled the worms that you gave my disciples and recognized it as someone from the Devil tribe!" He narrowed his eyes at the beautiful woman. "This is your fault!"
