Zheng Xu was worried that he would run into people from the Heavenly Ghost Courtyard or the Sky Ghost Courtyard so he carefully made his way to the Devil Sect's camp, delaying him from returning.

"Even after half a day, I still don't know if the Sect Leader has received my sound transmission or if he has sent anyone to find me." Zheng Xu sat under a tree and looked at the sky in confusion as he spoke. His body was in a very bad condition, and every step he took was torture for him. Looking at his bleeding wound, Zheng smiled bitterly: "If I don't see the reinforcements, I'm afraid I won't be able to return to the camp alive."

Zheng Xu sat down to rest for another two hours before continuing to walk towards the camp site. But even after resting for half a day, his footsteps had become a bit erratic, as if he was struggling with something.

Xing Yun left the Devil Sect's camp and quickly flew towards the eastern mountains of the Heavenly Ghost Academy. Although he had realized from Zheng Xu's voice that the Fire Sect members might have met with misfortune, he still held onto a glimmer of hope. Moreover, he was very suspicious of that sound transmission, and for some reason, he felt a little uneasy. "Forget it, we'll find out when we get to the place or find the survivors." Xing Yun no longer wished to continue flying in the direction of the eastern mountains of the Heavenly Ghost Academy.

On the other side of the Demon Sect, after Xing Yun left the camp, the atmosphere between Yan Yang and Qian Ji did not calm down, instead it became more tense. On the other side of the camp, after Xing Yun left, the atmosphere between Yan Yang and Qian Ji did not calm down.

Although he had said that this matter had nothing to do with the Skysoul Institute, he still felt that there was a pair of large hands in the shadows that were stirring up trouble. Furthermore, the people in the Skysoul Institute had yet to receive any news from them, which caused him to feel even more uneasy.

Time passed slowly, and the people outside seemed to feel the tension in the camp. They were all on their guard, afraid that they would be implicated if they did anything bad.

Zheng Xu covered his wounds as he ran with great difficulty while vigilantly looking behind him. He also didn't expect his luck to be this bad. They clearly didn't encounter any spirit beasts on their way here, so they thought this was a spiritual beast free mountain range. But just now, perhaps because he was affected by the smell of blood, a Rank 4 Fierce Blast Tiger appeared out of nowhere. Normally, he would have been able to kill this Rank 4 Fierce Blast Tiger in one move, but now, he could only stand and struggle to escape.

"Ahh!" A tiger's roar came from behind Zheng Xu.

Zheng Xu saw Violent Blast Tiger coming closer and closer behind him and felt a burst of despair. "Am I going to die like this today?" Zheng Xu thought.

Just as Zheng Xu was about to give up, a flame fell from the sky and landed on the body of Violent Blast Tiger.

"Ahh!" With a blood-curdling screech, the Fierce Explosion Tiger turned into ashes.

"Senior brother Xing?" Zheng Xu looked up and saw that the person in the sky was the Devil Sect's Xing Yun. He knew that he had been saved, but as soon as he relaxed, he fell into a coma.

When Xing Yun saw Zheng Xu unconscious, he hastily held onto Zheng Xu as he looked at his wounds. His heart sank as he hurriedly took out a Hundred Essence Pill from his storage ring and fed it to Zheng Xu. Then, he brought Zheng Xu back.

Not long after Xing Yun and Zheng Xu left, Lu Chen and Yun Tian walked out from the forest. Watching the two leave, Lu Chen said with a faint smile, "Now, even if Qian Ji has a hundred mouths, it won't be able to justify himself."

"Have you arranged the other locations?" Yun Tian asked.

"Mm, I've made the people from the Cloud Sky Sect and the Cloudsoaring sect hide in the shadows, and I've set fire to those places as well." Lu Chen said. He had no way to hide the fact that he was a Spirit Severing cultivator despite his high attainments in formations. In order to prevent the scene from being burned down, even though there were some flaws, he still believed that Ling Tian and Yun Feng would help him deal with it.

When Zheng Xu woke up, he found himself lying on his bed, with Flame Sect's Sect Leader Yan Yang sitting next to him.

"Sect Leader." Zheng Xu was flattered.

"Don't be so excited yet. This time you were lucky. If it wasn't for Xing Yun finding out about you, you would have died a long time ago." Yan Yang said.

Zheng Xu recalled the gratitude he felt towards Xing Yun when he saw him in his coma. Zheng Xu thought about how the people of the Intense Flaming Sect had all been killed by the people of the courtyard. He hurriedly said, "Sect Leader, the other people of the sect have all been killed by the people of the Sky Ghost Courtyard. You must avenge them ah." Zheng Xu said excitedly.

"You mean the people from the Palace colluded with the people from the Heavenly Ghost Courtyard?" Yan Yang said with a dark expression. Although he had guessed this from the start, hearing Zheng Xu personally confirm it was another matter.

"Yes, disciple and the people from the Sky Ghost Academy were ambushed by the General Gan. The disciple hurriedly dodged to the side and saw that the Heavenly Ghost Yard's Yu Ling'er and the Foundation Establishment stage cultivators of the Heavenly Ghost Yard were surrounding us, and the general himself admitted that the Heavenly Ghost Yard and the Heavenly Ghost Yard had an agreement. But when the disciple tried to send a sound transmission to you, the stone was broken by Yu Ling'er." Zheng Xu said with great effort.

"Damn it! I will make you pay with your blood!" Yan Yang said with a dark expression.

"Zheng Xu, you should rest for the night first. Tomorrow, we'll go to the Devil Sect's camp and expose the identity of the mech with the people from the other sects." Yan Yang left the room as soon as he finished speaking. At the same time, he had the other disciples protect Zheng Xu with 120% of their minds.

Zheng Xu fell into a deep sleep after Yan Yang left, unable to resist the fatigue. However, he never woke up again.

The next day, Yan Yang sat gloomily in his room at the Heaven's Punishment Cliff, waiting for Qian Ji and Yun Feng to arrive. He had told Liefeng to call Zheng Xu this morning, but when Liefeng entered the room, he discovered that there was a deep wound on Zheng Xu's chest. After learning about this news, Yan Yang was furious but the disciples on duty all said that they did not hear anything. Adding on the fact that he had set up a formation outside of Zheng Xu's house, if Aurous Core stage cultivators entered the death path, those who could pass through the formation at the same time without the help of his disciples must be Nascent Soul stage experts. At this time, the people he sent to monitor the Qian House were saying that last night, the Nascent Soul stage cultivator Mo Xu went out for a very long time, so Zheng Xu's death also had an answer.

"Qian Ji, do you think I don't have any proof after you sent people to kill Zheng Xu?" Yan Yang thought coldly.

When Yun Feng arrived, he saw Yan Yang's dark and fierce expression. With a puzzled gaze, he asked Xing Tian Ya and Ling Tian for directions. When he saw the two of them, he shook his head and did not ask Yan Yang about his seat.

After a while, the dryer arrived late. When it saw Yan Yang's appearance, it was also stunned for a moment before it followed him to sit at its seat.

Before he could even sit down, he felt a scorching heat wave towards him. He immediately dodged to the side and saw Yan Yang staring at him viciously with the Sunscorch Sword in his hand.

"Yan Yang, are you crazy?" Qian Ji said angrily.

"Am I crazy? "You must be feeling guilty about this." Yan Yang said coldly.

Qian Luozi's expression changed as he took out his own life treasure, Qian Duoduo, to confront Yan Yang.

"Fellow Yan, Fellow Qian, what are you doing?" Xing Tian Ya immediately said when he saw that the atmosphere wasn't good.

"It's Yan Yang who's going to go crazy first." Qian Ji said with an ugly expression. Since yesterday, Yan Yang had never been on good terms with him. But today, he came and wanted to chop him up with the Sun Sword. This caused Qian Ji to feel extremely dissatisfied.

"Am I crazy? Qianji, do you think that I won't have any evidence to prove that you colluded with the Heavenly Ghost Yard after you let Mustang kill Zheng Xu? " Yan Yang said coldly.

"What?" Although they had guessed it before, they had never thought that it would be true.

"Yan Yang, don't slander us." When Qian Ji saw the look in the eyes of Xing Tian Ya and the others, his expression immediately changed.

"That's what Zheng Xu told me when I came back yesterday. Can you explain why he went out in the middle of the night?" Yan Yang said aggressively.

Qian Ji was speechless. He didn't even know where Mustang had gone to in the middle of the night.

Seeing Qian Ji's silence, Yan Yang continued, "What, why aren't you saying anything? Or did you allow me to speak correctly? " Yan Yang said.

"Fellow Yan, do you have any evidence that Fellow Qian is colluding with the Heavenly Ghost Courtyard?" "After all, if there is no evidence, it would be hard to say." Yun Feng frowned and said.

"I understand what you mean. Zheng Xu was the best evidence, but he was assassinated last night." Furthermore, I suggest that you all send some of your people to check out the direction of the disciples in your own sect. Yan Yang said.

Hearing Yan Yang's words, the expressions of Yun Feng and the other two immediately changed. At this point, they thought about how their sect had yet to receive any news, so they became even more worried.

"Xingyun, investigate your Heavenly Ghost Yard's South Mountain." Xing Tian Ya said.

"Qing`er, go check on the west mountain of the Heavenly Ghost Academy." Yun Feng called Mu Rong Qing over and said.

"Xuan Yu, you and Murong Qing go investigate together." Ling Tian said.

"Yes." The three of them respectfully flew off in different directions.

Seeing Xing Yun and the others leave, the room immediately fell into silence. As for Xing Tian Ya and the others, they were also quietly watching over Qian Ji.

At the same time, he was also affected by Yan Yanggang's attitude. He felt that he had been set up by someone, but he could not find out who exactly it was. The unease in his heart grew even stronger.

Half a day passed in the blink of an eye. The few people who had been waiting for Xing Tian Ya returned to the camp. However, they all had ugly expressions on their faces.

"How's your investigation over there?" Xing Tian Ya asked.

"Sect Leader, the Devil Sect's men are all annihilated." Xing Yun said with an ugly expression.

"The people of the Cloudsoaring sect and Cloud Sky Sect have also been wiped out." Murong Qing also said with an ugly expression.

"What?" Xing Tian Ya and the others stood up in shock. At the same time, they looked at Qian Ji with sinister gazes.

"I already said that Qian Ji colluded with the people from the Heavenly Ghost Courtyard, do you believe me now?" Yan Yang said with a gloomy expression.

"Qian Ji, today, I will use your blood to pay back the lives of my Lingyun School disciples." After Ling Tian finished speaking, he sent a palm strike towards Qian Ji.

As for Xing Tian Ya and the others, they also took out their magic treasures and attacked Qian Ji. At this point, the four sects had completely broken up.
