Han Cai continued, "Coming back to your fears and concerns – I should be afraid too, but do I look afraid right now? I smacked the Mother Empress in the capital in front of the patriarch of the royal family, who is an Earth Immortal. After that, I enjoyed wine at the banquet before leaving. If they could hurt or harm me, they would have done so there. An Earth Immortal could not do anything to me. So, for those who want to hand me and my master over to them, do give it a try, but understand the consequences of your actions. As for those who are afraid, if you're worried about getting hurt, then leave the sect if you do not have faith in it. I can only say that this struggle will benefit the whole sect. No one is asking you to go out and fight for the sect. You just have to stay in the sect and cultivate. I will personally take care of everything and end this war."
Han Cai then turned to the Cui and Wang family patriarchs, "My apologies to the Cui and Wang families who suffered the most. We did warn you about the upcoming backlash of my actions, but unlike our sect, you did not have a grand array to protect yourselves. To make up for that, I will ensure the Cui and Wang families are treated well in the future when we are done with what is about to be done."
The Cui and Wang family patriarchs were left wondering what Han Cai was going to do.
However, Han Cai did not explain anything further to anyone. He simply turned around and left the hall, leaving everyone to ponder his words and what the future held for the Sky Soaring Sect and its allies.
Two weeks passed since Han Cai pacified the members of the Sky Soaring Sect in the sect hall.
In the east of Yin Kingdom, there was a well-known city called Azurewind City. This enchanting city was famous for its magnificent architecture, showcasing a unique blend of traditional and modern styles that captured the hearts of visitors. Azurewind City was also known for its bustling markets, where people could find a vast array of goods and services. The lively atmosphere of the markets attracted traders and buyers from far and wide, making it a hub of commerce and exchange.
The city was home to numerous skilled artisans who dedicated their lives to perfecting their crafts. These talented individuals produced exquisite handicrafts that were sought after by collectors and enthusiasts from all corners of the kingdom. The picturesque landscapes surrounding the city only added to its charm. Azurewind City was nestled amidst lush greenery and pristine lakes, offering its residents and visitors a sense of serenity and a connection with nature.
Most importantly, just like Cloud Mountain City was controlled by the Sky Soaring Sect, Azurewind City was under the jurisdiction of the Divine Wind Sect. This powerful sect played a crucial role in maintaining order and ensuring the prosperity of the city. Through their effective governance, the Divine Wind Sect gained the respect and admiration of Azurewind City's citizens, fostering a sense of loyalty and pride among them.
One fateful night, everything seemed normal in Azurewind City, with half of the population fast asleep, unaware of the events that were about to unfold. The moon cast its gentle light over the peaceful city, creating a calm and serene atmosphere. However, upon closer inspection, it was apparent that most of the cultivator guards, responsible for protecting the city and its inhabitants, had mysteriously disappeared overnight.
The mansion of the Lord of Azurewind City was eerily silent, its usual air of grandeur replaced by an unsettling stillness. There were no sounds emanating from within the walls, as if not a single person lived there. This strange and disquieting atmosphere foreshadowed a series of events that would shake the foundations of Azurewind City and leave its citizens questioning their safety and their future.
Located in the northwest of Yin Kingdom, there lay another well-known city called Snowstone City. This remarkable city was renowned for its cold climate, which blanketed the region in a crisp, refreshing chill. The majestic snow-capped mountains that surrounded Snowstone City served as a breathtaking backdrop, drawing nature lovers and adventurers alike. In addition to its stunning natural beauty, the city was famous for its soothing hot springs, where visitors could relax and rejuvenate in the steaming waters.
Snowstone City was also a hub for scholars and philosophers, attracting intellectuals from all corners of the kingdom. Its streets were filled with the exchange of ideas, as people from various backgrounds engaged in lively discussions and debates. The city's atmosphere was charged with a spirit of curiosity and discovery, making it a haven for those who sought knowledge and wisdom.
Most importantly, just as Cloud Mountain City was controlled by the Sky Soaring Sect, Snowstone City was under the governance of the Frost Peak Sect. With wisdom and foresight, the Frost Peak Sect guided the city's growth and development, ensuring its continued prosperity. Under their rule, Snowstone City flourished, becoming a shining example of progress and stability.
However, on one fateful night, an eerie calm settled over Snowstone City. The bustling streets and lively conversations that usually filled the air were replaced by an unsettling silence. Unlike Azurewind City, where the guards had mysteriously vanished, the guards in Snowstone City were present but lifeless. Their corpses lay on the ground, dry and devoid of vitality, as if someone or something had drained the life from them.
A similar scene unfolded in the mayor of Snowstone City's mansion. Every member, cultivator, and guard within the mansion lay lifeless on the floor, their bodies as dry as corpses. The once-vibrant halls were now filled with an ominous stillness
