2238 Terrifying Background

Yun Lintian frowned as he watched Venerable Darkness dissipate into nothingness. Becoming the target of such an organization would certainly be troublesome.

“That’s awesome, Brother Yun,” Huang Ba said, flying over with a somewhat disheveled appearance.

Yun Lintian looked at the broken profound ark. “Can you contact your people? Otherwise, I’m afraid we won’t reach the Central Region in time.”

“Sure,” Huang Ba replied, quickly sending a sound transmission to his master through the God Mark within his body.

In the distance, Chi Du looked at Yun Lintian in horror. He had witnessed everything and couldn’t believe Venerable Darkness, one of the pillars, had been killed so easily.

Yun Lintian glanced at him, causing Chi Du to clutch his heart before his body exploded into pieces.

Huang Ba swallowed hard, finally understanding Yun Lintian’s ruthlessness. This approachable young man was merciless to his enemies.

However, Huang Ba felt it was justified. He had no sympathy for the enemy.

Yun Lintian looked at the injured passengers and waved his hand. Several green vines shot out from his body toward everyone. Before they could react, their injuries began to heal rapidly.

Gu Bingning and Long Jingxia also regained their senses. They were surprised to see the vinesaround their bodies and looked at Yun Lintian gratefully.

Huang Ba was once again surprised by Yun Lintian’s unique power. He had never seen such pure wood energy before – a complete opposite to the destructive power displayed earlier.

Yun Lintian flew back and landed on the remnants of the original black vessel. His spiritual sense quickly scanned the tragic scene below deck, where many familiar faces lay unconscious, awaiting their demise. Without his intervention, they would undoubtedly be turned into puppets.

Long Jingxia rose from the ground and cupped her fists respectfully. “Thank you for saving us, Senior.”

Yun Lintian glanced at her. “You should contact your people as well.”

“Yes,” Long Jingxia responded. Her pride had vanished the moment she was knocked unconscious by the puppet, and she realized her foolishness.

Gu Bingning remained silent and contacted her people.

Yun Lintian conjured a table and chairs, beckoning Huang Ba to join him. With a wave of his hand, delicacies and jars of wine appeared.

“Tell me about this so-called Nine Hells Gate organization,” Yun Lintian said, sipping his wine.

Huang Ba put down the wine jar and wiped his mouth. His expression turned serious as he began, “Brother Yun, this Nine Hells Gate organization is notorious throughout the Divine Realm, known for operating in the shadows. They engage in all sorts of sinister activities, from assassinations to smuggling forbidden artifacts. Their reach extends far and wide, and they have a reputation for being ruthless and merciless.”

He paused, taking a deep breath before continuing, “The most frightening aspect of the Nine Hells Gate is their rumored connection to True Gods. It is said that several True Gods are secretly backing them, providing them with immense resources and power. This is why they have been able to operate with such impunity for so long.”

Yun Lintian listened intently, his expression impassive. “Do you know the identities of these True Gods?”

Huang Ba shook his head. “No one knows for sure. The Nine Hells Gate is shrouded in secrecy, and their members are fiercely loyal. They would rather die than reveal any information about their organization or their backers.”

Yun Lintian nodded thoughtfully. “It seems I have made a powerful enemy.”

Huang Ba patted Yun Lintian’s shoulder reassuringly. “Don’t worry, Brother Yun. You’re not alone in this. Many powerful forces in the Divine Realm are opposed to the Nine Hells Gate. If they find out that you’ve killed one of their Venerables, they will surely support you. My master will be the first one to protect you.” frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Yun Lintian smiled faintly. “I appreciate your confidence, Brother Huang. But I prefer to rely on my own strength.”

Huang Ba chuckled. “I know you’re strong, Brother Yun. But don’t hesitate to ask for help if you need it. We’re all in this together.”

Yun Lintian raised his wine jar in a toast. “To our friendship.”

Huang Ba clinked his jar against Yun Lintian’s. “To our friendship.”

They drank in silence for a moment, each lost in their own thoughts.

“Brother Yun,” Huang Ba said suddenly, “I have a question.”

“Ask away,” Yun Lintian replied.

“Why did you kill that Venerable Darkness? Couldn’t you have just captured him?” Huang Ba was certain that Yun Lintian could easily subdue Venerable Darkness.

“The moment he realized I was stronger, he committed suicide. I’ve never seen such decisive action from a high-level cultivator. Typically, people at his level fear death more than anyone,” Yun Lintian replied casually.

Huang Ba was surprised and nodded slowly. “As I mentioned earlier, they are truly loyal to the organization.”

“This makes me realize how deeply rooted this organization is,” Yun Lintian sighed helplessly. He had tried to avoid trouble but failed in the end.

He could see that Venerable Darkness feared failure more than death. Perhaps a severe punishment awaited him.

In fact, Yun Lintian’s guess was not far from the truth. Venerable Darkness was so afraid of punishment that he would rather die than face it.

“You all know how terrifying they are, so why are you here messing with them?” Yun Lintian glanced at Gu Bingning and Long Jingxia doubtfully. They couldn’t be that foolish, could they?

Huang Ba laughed mockingly as he looked at the two. “What else? They’re eager to make a name for themselves.”

“How so?” Yun Lintian was puzzled.

Gu Bingning took the initiative to explain. “As Huang Ba mentioned, the organization is a common enemy of almost everyone in the Divine Realm. The Holy Lands have issued a reward for anyone who can disrupt their operations.”

“Although our masters are True Gods, resources outside are very limited,” Huang Ba added.

Yun Lintian finally understood the situation. It seemed resources here were scarcer than he thought.

However, it was understandable. While the environment was far superior to his own world, it also fostered fiercer competition among cultivators. Most resources ended up in the hands of a few, which was the main reason people desired to enter the Holy Lands.

Yun Lintian, whose journey had been filled with endless treasures, naturally couldn’t understand the desperation of the people here.

At the same time, Yun Lintian also understood why Jiu Lang and the others went to the Great Wilderness Realm to learn about Qing Shui’s progress. They were simply trying to find the method Qing Shui used to reach a higher realm.
