Chapter 439: Wolves at the Front, Tiger at the Back!

Chapter 439: Wolves at the Front, Tiger at the Back!

In the Primordial Academy, inside an elegant, secluded courtyard...

"Master!" Chi Yang, dressed in a red robe, wiped the hardship from his face and knelt with a thud before a white-haired woman.

That woman was Dean Yu.

"Rise." Dean Yu addressed Chi Yang and the other disciples beside him.

These disciples had just hurried back from the Blood Devil Ruins and went straight to see Dean Yu, accompanied by Yun Dahe and Feng Qingcong, two Sacred Sages.

The two had already heard about the situation at the Blood Devil Ruins, now having grave expressions.

"Hand over the item to the Dean," Feng Qingcong instructed the blue-clad youth, Yun Jin.

"Yes!" Yun Jin's face was slightly pale, his hands trembling slightly as he handed over a white orb to Dean Yu.

This was a treasure capable of recording events in real-time, known as a Projection Orb.

The path of cultivation was fraught with danger and killing. To avoid being falsely accused or dying in obscurity, many cultivators carried one with them.

Dean Yu took the Projection Orb and activated it with her power, and a projection appeared before everyone.

The projection started from the moment the Black Battalion members appeared and ended with the message of a debt in blood from the female devil.

When the figure controlling a blood dragon, surrounded by a torrent of blood mist, appeared in the recording, even Dean Yu furrowed her brows, her eyes stirring with shock.

"A True Devil!" She uttered through clenched teeth.

"Yes, a True Devil!" Chi Yang said with a grim face, "We have several more Projection Orbs that can corroborate everything we've said!"

Yun Dahe solemnly added, "One recording is enough."

Chi Yang, Yun Jin, and the other disciples exchanged glances before Chi Yang said, "Master, Uncle Masters, with the remnants of the Devil Ark and the appearance of a True Devil now confirmed, what should we do? Should we report this to the Three Great Ruins?"

Feng Qingcong scoffed, "Of course, we're going to report it. Since the Three Immortals took up the Imperial Family's banner of eradicating devils to protect the myriad worlds, it's their duty to handle the resurgence of such evils."

"But I fear they might not take it seriously..." Chi Yang shook his head.

"How could they not? This threatens their very rule," Dean Yu remarked, handing the Projection Orb to Yun Dahe, "Divide this recording into two parts. Send the latter half to the Heavenly Order Temple and reveal the truth to the people of the Primordial Ruins."

"Two parts?" Chi Yang looked up at Dean Yu, puzzled. "Master, do you mean to say that not only are we not seeking justice from the Black Battalion for not killing demons but instead attacking us, we are also to pretend as if it never happened?"

"Yes." Dean Yu nodded. Clearly, for the three elders, while the first part of the content was infuriating and repugnant... it was enough that they were aware of it.

"There's no point in seeking justice; it would only lead to a falling out," Feng Qingcong said.

Hearing this, the younger disciples like Chi Yang struggled with their emotions before reluctantly lowering their heads in frustration.

"We slay demons, the descendants of the Three Immortals slay us, and in the end, the devil saves us... What kind of world is this?" Chi Yang shook his head in bitter laughter.

"Does it contradict your ideals?" Dean Yu asked calmly.

"These creatures are like cockroaches; if there's one, it means there are definitely more," the figure in the gray robe replied, his brow furrowing even deeper.

"With wolves at the front and a tiger at the back, life is fraught with difficulty, and the way forward is unclear," Dean Yu said, her gaze dimming as she sighed softly.

"It might not all be bad," the figure in the gray robe mentioned.

"Do you mean to say that now, with the Three Immortals' descendants so powerful, it's difficult for either us or the True Devils to truly confront them? Although we can't be the fishermen, we might observe their struggle from the sidelines and find a way for humanity to survive?" Dean Yu turned to look at the figure in the gray robe.

"The Primordial Academy, Jade Immortal Tower, and Blood Devil Ruins... In all three places, the True Devil only harmed the descendants of the Three Immortals, indicating they are already in conflict," the figure in the gray robe said solemnly.

"Mhm." Dean Yu nodded, feeling a flicker of hope.

"Speaking of which, it's unexpected that the incidents at the Primordial Academy and Jade Immortal Tower weren't Yun Xiao's doing. He just passed on the Blood Bat Curse for a simple outing," the figure in the gray robe said with a mix of amusement and disbelief.

Dean Yu smiled wryly, responding, "We imagined him to be too formidable. In the end, he's just a child."

▬ι══????✧⚰️✧????══ι▬

At the Sky Source Ruins, within the Heavenly Order Temple, Yun Dahe delivered the Projection Orb and left after uttering a single sentence.

The descendants of the Three Immortals were left in an incredibly solemn atmosphere, watching the footage contained within the sphere.

"A True Devil!!" Only the second part of the footage was shown, and it was actually quite brief.

The appearance of the unparalleled female devil was decisive and direct, as she effortlessly slapped the head off Xuan Meng, a direct descendant and genius of the Three Immortals...

What followed was a bloody massacre!

As the footage ended, the Heavenly Order Temple fell into dead silence, with everyone's eyes wide open, replaying the Projection Orb five times!

"Indeed, unmistakably a devil!"

A storm of shock and awe surged within the hearts of these strong descendants of the Three Immortals.

"Sky Source Son..." For a moment, all eyes turned towards the gaunt old man enveloped in golden mist.

"It is indeed a True Devil," the Sky Source Son said. His words carried the utmost authority.

"So, the incidents at the Primordial Academy and the Jade Immortal Tower were truly the work of the devils..." the red-robed woman remarked with a shifting gaze.

The truth was laid bare. The master of the Jade Immortal Tower also had a grim face, "So it was those beastly remnants! Unexpectedly, it had nothing to do with Yun Xiao..."

"So, the revenge of the devils, provocation, robbery, and slaughter, all of it is real!"

The brows of the Celestial Officers and Manor Masters were deeply furrowed.

"This is a major event!"

Throughout history, the devils had always been the primary enemy of the Primordial Ruins and the human race. Had it not been for the Martial Emperor Clan exterminating the Devil Ark, the two races would still be embroiled in ongoing wars. Even the descendants of the Three Immortals harbored a shadow of fear towards the power of the devils!

In this deathly silent atmosphere, the Sky Source Son, holding the Projection Orb, declared, "I will make a trip to the Nine Hells. You all should prepare for Three Immortals Day."

"Yes!" Everyone nodded. The fact that the Sky Source Son himself sought to inform the Three Immortals personally indicated the seriousness of the situation.
