After hearing Ye Qiu’s explanation, Meng Tianzheng and the others heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Ye Qiu had noticed something strange in advance. Otherwise, they would probably be trapped in this cage.

All this time, they had been trapped here, enduring the attacks of vengeful spirits every day. They could not sleep well and were stuck running everywhere.

In just a few days, most of the disciples had been seriously injured. It could be said that they had suffered heavy losses.

If not for Meng Tianzheng and Qi Wuhui, the two King-Ranked experts, they would have long been gone.

“Damn it, this damn Immortal Mountain. We must take revenge.”

The more they thought about it, the angrier they became.

Yang Wudi said fiercely, “In the past few days, if Senior Brother Qi hadn’t guarded the entrance day and night, our many disciples would have been eaten by those vengeful spirits. No matter what, we have to take revenge.”

“That’s right, I’ll take revenge for this…” Lu Feng also echoed angrily and continued, “Senior Brother, let’s kill our way back. This time, we’ll completely cut off the Immortal Mountain’s orthodoxy. Let the world see that my Heaven Mending Sect is not so easy to provoke.”

It had been a long time since the Heaven Mending Sect had fully mobilized since the previous battle.

Clearly, the Immortal Mountain had completely angered the Heaven Mending Sect this time. Everyone was aggressive and looked like they wanted to repay blood with blood.

“That’s right. We’ve already destroyed one of the Immortal Mountain. We’re not afraid of destroying another one.”

Everyone was also filled with fighting spirit and righteous indignation.

Meng Tianzheng was very gratified when he saw this scene. He looked at Ye Qiu and said, “Junior Brother Ye, are you confident in taking down Old Man Gongsun?”

Currently, their greatest threat was Gongsun Baizhi, this old fellow. This person was extremely shrewd, cunning, and had extraordinary strength. He even effortlessly took down tens of thousands of people from the Heaven Mending Sect and trapped them in this forbidden area.

If Ye Qiu hadn’t saved them, they would have been completely wiped out. Therefore, Gongsun Baizhi was the most important person. If they couldn’t take him down, then the Heaven Mending Sect wouldn’t be able to win this battle.

Facing everyone’s expectant gazes, the killing intent in Ye Qiu’s heart was gradually exposed.

“Haha… What’s so difficult about that? Senior Brother, do whatever you want. Leave Old Man Gongsun to me.”

Ye Qiu was absolutely confident that he could take down Gongsun Baizhi. As for the others from the Immortal Mountain, he would leave them to Meng Tianzheng and the others.

There would definitely be bloodshed in the battle between the two sects. It would be difficult for these young disciples to grow up without experiencing a bloody lesson.

This could be considered a baptism, a test of their Dao hearts.

After obtaining Ye Qiu’s promise, Meng Tianzheng immediately slapped the table and said fiercely, “Disciples, listen up. The extermination operation will begin now.

“Kill whenever you meet people of the Immortal Mountain. From today onwards, let the world feel the anger of my Heaven Mending Sect.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire forbidden area instantly erupted with deafening shouts.

“Kill!”

“Kill!”

“Kill!”

That high-spirited atmosphere also embellished Ye Qiu’s drive.

This battle could determine the Heaven Mending Sect’s true strength and make the world understand how powerful the Heaven Mending Sect was.

The conflict between the Heaven Mending Sect and the Immortal Mountain had been going on for a long time. Since it had come to this, there was only one outcome left.

Either the Heaven Mending Sect would be destroyed, or the Immortal Mountain would be destroyed.

Ye Qiu’s gaze returned to the Wang Han in his hand as he silently watched these young people’s blood boil.

At this moment, Wang Han’s heart was filled with incomparable fear. He had truly seen the true appearance of the Heaven Mending Sect. He couldn’t help but worry for the Immortal Mountain. Could the Immortal Mountain really win against such an orthodoxy?

Unfortunately, this was no longer something he should consider.

After the matter was resolved, Ye Qiu looked at the surrounding forbidden law and said, “Senior Brother, this is not the place to talk. Let’s go out first.”

He had an ominous feeling. Meng Tianzheng also felt that this place wasn’t suitable to stay for long. Then, he instructed everyone to follow Ye Qiu and quickly leave the forbidden area.

However, the moment they were about to step out of the forbidden area, the passage in all directions suddenly closed.

This sudden change made Ye Qiu’s expression change. Everyone was flustered.

“What’s going on?”

The passage in front of him was blocked by a layer of fog that could not be removed. It completely blocked the way.

Ye Qiu gradually understood that this was still a trap, a trap that even Wang Han was in the dark about.

“Haha… Gongsun Baizhi is really a scheming old fox.”

The moment the passage closed, Ye Qiu clearly captured Wang Han’s subtle change in expression and was very surprised.

Yes, even he was kept in the dark.

“No… impossible.”

Wang Han let out a cry of disbelief. His faith seemed to have collapsed.

It turned out that Gongsun Baizhi had calculated that they might betray him in advance, so he added another taboo to the last one.

It was to prevent them.

For a moment, Wang Han seemed to have suffered a huge blow and was in a daze.

He had been conscientious for hundreds of years and had risked his life for the Immortal Mountain. He had made countless contributions. He did not expect Gongsun Baizhi to scheme against him in the end.

“You seem surprised?”

Looking at his terrified expression, Ye Qiu sneered and continued, “In his eyes, you’re just pawns that can be thrown away at any time.

“Once your lives are tested by benefits, they become worthless. Is this your faith? You’ll do anything for benefits?”

Hearing Ye Qiu’s ear-piercing sarcasm, Wang Han’s heart collapsed and he shook his head crazily.

“No, that’s impossible. The Patriarch wouldn’t lie to me.”

Wang Han covered his head as if he had lost everything. His inner world had suffered a serious blow. So his most trusted ancestor was also guarding against him. He was also an abandoned pawn in the patriarch’s game.

Ye Qiu smiled and didn’t refute him. Instead, he let go of him.

“In this world, there’s no such thing as absolute impossibility. You’re a smart person. You should be able to think through the truth of the matter, but you’re just unwilling to accept it.”

After saying that, Ye Qiu ignored him and didn’t kill him. Because in this world, there was nothing more painful than the collapse of faith.

Gongsun Baizhi’s move could be considered to have cut off the path of his own people. It could be said to be extremely sinister and cunning.

Turning around, Ye Qiu began to study the seal in front of him. It had to be said that this old fellow’s attainments in array formations were indeed terrifying.

Now that the passages were closed, it was impossible for Ye Qiu and the others to go out unless they could open the passages again.

“Junior Brother Ye, what should we do now?” Meng Tianzheng asked, while the others looked at Ye Qiu expectantly.

In this situation, only Ye Qiu could help them leave this damn place. They could only place their hopes on Ye Qiu.
