End of Chapter 121
"Junior brother! I'm here to help you!"
With a loud shout, a figure darted out from behind Gu Changpeng, followed by a True Yang Finger strike to Gu Changpeng's back, forming a pincer attack with Zhang Yunling.
"Ugh! Pfft!—" Originally able to withstand Zhang Yunling's sword attack, Gu Changpeng finally broke through his defenses after being attacked from behind by Ren Jixing. The Golden Bell Shield's defense was forced to collapse, and Gu Changpeng also suffered internal wounds and spat out blood.
The Wudang disciples not far away did not continue to entangle with Dong Wan. Seeing that their elder had been seriously injured, they rushed over and evacuated him from the battlefield.
Chen Tianfan looked at Zhang Yunling, who exuded a menacing aura in mid-air. He didn't have the courage to go up and fight, so he could only utter a few harsh words before retreating in a panic with the sect disciples.
Seeing the enemy defeated, Zhang Yunling felt a great sense of relief. The Immortal Sword in his hand turned into specks of light and disappeared, and he fell towards the ground.
Lin Wan'er, who was far away, was very worried and hurriedly got up and rushed over. Ren Jixing, who was standing next to her, also realized that his junior brother's physical condition was very poor. He flew forward and hugged him. The two of them slowly landed on the ground.
Lin Wan'er ran to Zhang Yunling's side, took out a handkerchief from her storage bag and wiped the blood off his face. Suddenly, she saw that Zhang Yunling's left arm had been cut off, and she couldn't help but burst into tears.
Ren Jixing's expression was also very solemn. Elders Ren Tianxiong and Ming Shan from the Quanzhen Sect also gathered around. Ming Shan took out healing pills and gave them to Zhang Yunling, while Ren Tianxiong used his divine sense to examine him, then nodded slightly and said:
"Everyone, there's no need to worry. Yun Ling is a tough guy; he just overexerted himself and fell into a coma. Now that the exit of the Immortal Ruins has opened, let's take Yun Ling back to the sect to heal before discussing anything else."
"Yes!" Ren Jixing nodded, then turned to Lin Wan'er beside her and asked curiously, "Miss, seeing how concerned you are about my junior brother, may I ask who you are...?"
Seeing that the Quanzhen Sect was about to take Zhang Yunling away, Lin Wan'er cried out urgently, "I am Zhang Yunling's sister! You can't take him away! My sect has healing magic treasures that can easily heal Brother Yunling!"
As she spoke, Lin Wan'er grabbed Zhang Yunling's shoulder and tried to pull him into her arms. Ren Jixing, of course, wouldn't allow this stranger, Lin Wan'er, to take his junior brother away, so he politely declined:
“Girl, no matter how good your relationship is with my junior brother, or how powerful your magic weapon is, Zhang Yunling is still a disciple of our Quanzhen Taoist sect. We will take good care of him. You can come and visit him again later.”
Before Lin Wan'er could say anything more, Ren Jixing carried Zhang Yunling's body and flew into the air, following the main force of the Quanzhen Sect towards the exit of the rift in the sky above the Immortal Ruins.
The other sects present also left with the opportunities they had obtained.
Zhou Hanping flew over and stood beside Lin Wan'er, patting her shoulder and saying, "Master, although the Jade Bottle is powerful, the price of using it is also considerable. Since the Quanzhen Sect insists on personally healing Zhang Yunling, you don't need to worry about it."
"Hmph, really..." Although Lin Wan'er was resentful, she still went along with the current situation and led the members of the Thief Heaven Sect to leave the Immortal Ruins.
The disciples of Qiankun Dao, who were in a distant corner, woke up from their unconsciousness and discovered Dong Wan leaning against the wall, barely alive.
The Black and White Guardians had fallen into a coma when the illusion collapsed. When they woke up, they had already returned to the Immortal Ruins. Upon seeing Dong Wan, they rushed forward anxiously, took out pills for her to take, and asked her about what had happened.
"Sect Master, how did you get so badly injured?" Protector Black asked worriedly as he fed Dong Wan pills.
"It's alright, at least we snatched a few pieces of meat from these hungry wolves. We can share some with you, hahaha..."
She looked at Zhang Yunling and the Quanzhen Sect who had already left, and then at the sect disciples beside her. Her heart was filled with mixed emotions.
Even though she was seriously injured because she followed Zhang Yunling's orders to fight the Wudang Sect head-on, and these disciples were of no use, she had no choice but to accept it.
"This road is so difficult..." Dong Wan muttered to herself.
"Let's go, Sect Master. We'll share it after you've recovered." Protector Bai helped Dong Wan up, and the other Qiankun Dao disciples followed suit and left.
Hearing this, Dong Wan's eyes dimmed even more, but she had nothing more to say to her subordinates.
In some corner, another group of people were witnessing all of this.
They were several cultivators dressed in earthen-yellow Taoist robes. Only after all the clans and forces in the Immortal Ruins had left did they dare to start whispering among themselves.
One of them whispered, "That one-armed youth is the person Elder Yang mentioned we should pay close attention to. The most precious magic weapon in these Immortal Ruins is the long sword he holds."
Another person added, "To stand out from the major sects and obtain such good fortune in just a few days, this kid is truly extraordinary. No wonder Elder Yang has mentioned him many times."
"This mission was sent by the imperial court, so we must handle it with caution. If we can seize the opportunity to capture that young man alive, there will be a great reward. However, we must not let him discover anything without being absolutely certain of success. You all must not mess this up."
The cultivator spoke again, revealing himself to be the leader of the group.
"Now that the three major Daoist sects have developed again, the effects of the Third Natural Calamity have almost disappeared. Soon they will be able to develop talents who can prove the Dao and become immortals again. I wonder what the imperial court plans to do."
"Sigh, there's no point in saying more. These things are all preordained by fate. Not to mention us, even the imperial court probably can't interfere. If you ask me, we should hurry up and make preparations so we don't lose track of that kid's whereabouts."
Upon hearing this, the leader took out an object from his storage bag, a magical artifact that resembled a compass.
He explained, "Don't worry, Elder Yang gave me a magic artifact that can track the young man's whereabouts. As long as he circulates his spiritual power, this compass will show his direction without fail."
After speaking, the yellow-robed cultivators made sure there was no one else around before stepping out of the shadows, taking flight, and heading towards the crack in the Immortal Ruins, leaving this immortal ruin.
