Suddenly, her expression changed dramatically.
"Not good, the disciples of the Zi Wei Sect are in trouble!" she suddenly said.
Zi Wei Sect disciples? Ye Luo looked at her in confusion.
"Whether or not theyâre in trouble has nothing to do with you anymore. Theyâve already been tainted by the Dark Law, and will slowly be eroded by it. If they emerge, they might become a disaster!"
In fact, what Ye Luo didnât say was that it would be best for these disciples to remain in the Spirit Pool and let fate take its course!
After all, no matter how much they evolve, they wonât harm the living beings of the Sixth Region.
Though Ye Luo wasnât a Saint either, when choosing between the Abyssal races and cultivators, he would undoubtedly choose cultivators!
Of course, even though he had deep enmity with the Dragon Clan, the Myriad Beasts Sect, and the Returner Alliance, he firmly believed that most cultivators still harbored goodwill.
"No, Ye Luo, youâre mistaken. They are disciples Iâve nurtured for many years. How could I bear to let them die? While they have absorbed the Dark Law, they can gradually purify it. Of course, this process requires my guidance!" said Zi Wei.
This took Ye Luo somewhat by surprise.
"So, youâre not of the Abyssal race?"
Hearing this, Zi Wei finally looked at him with displeasure, "Iâve been with you all night, donât you know if Iâm of the Abyssal race or not?"
These words left Ye Luo extremely embarrassed.
"Well, Iâve never been involved with a woman of the Abyssal race, so how would I know!"
In fact, Ye Luo had indeed encountered the Abyssal race before, but he was telling the truth â he had never been intimately involved with a woman of the Abyssal race.
However, Zi Wei also understood her status. She wasnât yet Ye Luoâs woman â just his servant. If he was pleased, he could favor her; if displeased, he could make her wish for death with a mere thought!
"Iâm certainly not of the Abyssal race. However, my cultivation technique does have some link to them. In fact, back in the day, I killed many experts of the Abyssal race!"
What she said brought Ye Luo some relief, as it meant she wasnât entirely irredeemable!
"Iâll explain everything to you later. If weâre late, I fear the elders will act against them!" Zi Wei said.
Itâs just that Ye Luo couldnât understand; even if theyâve been tainted by the Dark Law, the elders shouldnât have any reason to harm them, right?
Within the Zi Wei Sect, the disciples who had absorbed the Dark Law had become even more violent.
If Ye Luo saw them, he would surely be shocked, thinking they were no different from zombies!
In fact, the zombies on Earth and the Abyssal race have quite a connection.
"Grand Elder, these disciples have already become demonic. Keeping them around will only be a disaster for our Zi Wei Sect. Moreover, with the Sect Masterâs current uncertain fate, why not seize the opportunity to absorb these disciplesâ Divine Souls? After all, even if the Sect Master isnât here, we still have to survive!" an Elder said.
After all, theyâve been part of the Zi Wei Sect for so many years. Itâs impossible to claim they know nothing of the Sect Masterâs secrets!
Moreover, the Zi Wei Sectâs cultivation techniques are quite unique. At the verge of death, each discipleâs Divine Soul Power can be absorbed and claimed, allowing for a significant boost in personal strength.
However, in the Zi Wei Sect, this is forbidden! Such acts wound morality, and if uncontrolled, the Zi Wei Sect would become an Evil Sect! Such a sect would inevitably be jointly annihilated by other forces!
Thus, this act can only be performed if a disciple dies unexpectedly or meets some accident, with the Sect Masterâs agreement!
But now, with thousands of disciples falling into the Demonic Path, and more importantly, the Sect Masterâs plan seemingly failing, naturally these elders have other intentions.
After all, the current Zi Wei Sect is on the brink of collapse, and itâs only a matter of time.
Relying solely on a few elders, they cannot sustain the whole sect.
"No way, the Sect Master will definitely return. Thereâs still hope for our Zi Wei Sect!" the Grand Elder declared sternly.
"Heh heh, Grand Elder, youâre getting old. Itâs better not to involve yourself in these matters!"
Suddenly, over ten elders surrounded her, their expressions disdainful.
"What boldness, what do you intend?" the Grand Elder felt an ominous premonition immediately.
Because leading them was the old woman Ye Luo had previously offended. Her strength was not much weaker than the Grand Elderâs.
It was only due to hierarchy that she had been obliged to obey the Grand Elder!
Now that she was here with several elders to surround her, the Grand Elder instantly grasped her intentions!
She wanted to rebel! In fact, the Grand Elder had long suspected her disloyalty to the sect but lacked proof.
"Heh heh, Grand Elder, letâs lay our cards on the table. Youâve wanted to kill me all this time, havenât you? We wonât be polite today either. Your Divine Soul Power is more than enough to enhance our strength. Rest assured, after your death, Iâll rebuild the Zi Wei Sect. In a way, your death is a contribution to the Zi Wei Sect!" the old woman chuckled sinisterly.
Hearing this, the Grand Elderâs expression turned cold, "Hmph, do you all intend to follow her in her villainy? The Sect Master treated you well!"
She shouted harshly at the other elders.
However, these elders, who had lived countless years, having chosen their sides, would not feel guilty and abandon their choices because of a few words from the Grand Elder.
"Grand Elder, youâre right. The Sect Master did treat us well. But with the Sect Masterâs life uncertain, should we follow you to doom along with the Zi Wei Sect? I must say, your views are too outdated. Elder Chen is right; you should make your final contribution to our Zi Wei Sect!" one of the elders said.
Upon hearing this, the other elders nodded slightly, indicating almost all had betrayed the Grand Elder.
"Haha, how ironic that after not making a move for over a century, my first act is against my own people!"
With that, the Grand Elderâs momentum surged, and finally, she threw away her cane, transforming into the image of a middle-aged beauty!
This was her true appearance!
Having made their decision, the other elders acted immediately, fearing any delay could lead to unforeseen consequences! Despite surrounding her, the Grand Elder was highly skilled, with many ways to escape. They werenât confident they could kill her!
If she managed to escape, the other elders wouldnât be able to sleep peacefully.
