"What is going on, why are so many cultivators hurriedly leaving Wind Shelter City?" At this moment, in the sky outside Wind Shelter City, Zhu'er commented with immense curiosity.
They had just arrived at Wind Shelter City and saw a large group of cultivators fleeing the city as if there was an ancient evil hidden within.
"Something must have happened. Miss is still in Wind Shelter City, I wonder if she's alright." Hei Bo's brows furrowed tightly, eyes filled with intense worry.
"Ye Chen, look quickly, it's Ye Chen." Just then, a cultivator suddenly exclaimed, staring fixedly at Ye Chen.
Currently, the news of Ye Chen killing Ye Fei had spread throughout the entire Ancient Ruins, becoming universally known.
Thus, many people could instantly recognize Ye Chen.
"What is going on?" Ye Chen's figure flashed, appearing in front of a group of cultivators, asking them.
"Lord Ye Chen, you must not enter Wind Shelter City. An Outer Realm visitor has come specifically to seek revenge against you.
This Outer Realm visitor is extremely violent, wantonly killing innocents within Wind Shelter City to pry out the whereabouts of your fiancée," a cultivator spoke with utmost gravity.
"Not good! Miss is in danger." Zhu'er and Hei Bo's pupils contracted sharply, their faces turning deathly pale.
"Damn it!" Even Ye Chen's mind was a cacophony of roars, sweat covering his forehead, eyes full of urgent concern.
The six members of Qingyun had been killed, with four already slain by him.
Thus, the Outer Realm visitor in Wind Shelter City was either Lin Tong's second brother or their eldest brother.
His strength was surely much stronger than Lin Tong.
If Shangguan Zitong were really found by him, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Zitong, you mustn't come to harm. I'm going to save you now." Ye Chen's eyes turned blood-red, radiant crimson light erupted from his entire being as if he had transformed into a Fire God.
At this moment, he activated the Fire God Domain to its extreme, instantly enveloping Zhu'er, Ye Xi, and others, swiftly flying towards Wind Shelter City.
He couldn't guarantee that there was no one around who wanted to harm Ye Xi and the others.
Therefore, only by keeping them by his side could he be at ease.
Whoosh!
In an instant, Ye Chen's figure disappeared.
The surrounding cultivators didn't even have time to react.
"Oh my god! Ye Chen actually went into Wind Shelter City. Isn't he afraid of being killed by that Outer Realm visitor?"
"That Outer Realm visitor is practically a madman, and his strength is even scarier than Bai Feng. If Ye Chen encounters him, he will definitely be doomed."
"He's acting like a moth to a flame!" Some moment later, a cultivator exclaimed.
In their view, Ye Chen was likely facing a perilous situation this time.
Not only would he be unable to save his fiancée, but he might also lose his life.
Because, that Outer Realm visitor was far too strong, practically unbeatable.
...
The Xuanlong Inn, located in the central area of Wind Shelter City, was a grand and majestic palace.
This inn was specifically provided for those cultivators of unparalleled prestige to rest and cultivate, surrounded by layers of arrays.
And Shangguan Zitong, at this time, was in one of the palaces doing closed cultivation.
The last time, with the help of Supreme Profound True Water, she had already elevated her cultivation to the Sixth Layer of the Profound Pill Realm.
Additionally, her Martial Arts Realm had reached the Sixth Layer of True Intent.
Therefore, she was ready at any moment to break into the Seventh Layer of the Profound Pill Realm.
"I've succeeded, my cultivation has finally broken through." At this moment, Shangguan Zitong suddenly opened her eyes, with a look of joy.
After this period of closed cultivation, she had successfully entered the Seventh Layer of the Profound Pill Realm.
This advancement significantly increased her strength.
Nonetheless, she still had no confidence in defeating Ye Fei and Ji Mengxuan.
"I wonder how Ye Chen is doing now?" Shangguan Zitong's brows furrowed suddenly, eyes filled with deep worry.
Since she parted ways with Ye Chen last time, she had been in closed cultivation here.
Thus, she still had no knowledge of Ye Chen killing Ye Fei and Ji Mengxuan.
"I hope Ye Chen can rescue his sister from Ye Fei and Ji Mengxuan! Alas, I am so useless, unable to help Ye Chen at all." Shangguan Zitong couldn't help but sigh, eyes filled with heavy self-reproach.
She knew that Ye Chen's sister, Ye Xi, was targeted by Ye Fei and Ji Mengxuan, yet she couldn't help with anything.
If she followed Ye Chen to rescue Ye Xi, not only would she fail to help Ye Chen, but she'd become a burden.
Thus, she could only return to Wind Shelter City to cultivate in seclusion, hoping that after coming out, she'd be able to help Ye Chen somehow.
Sadly, even though her cultivation had broken through to the Seventh Layer of the Profound Pill Realm, she still had no confidence in confronting Ye Fei and Ji Mengxuan.
Boom.
Just then, a deafening roar erupted outside the palace, followed by the entire palace quaking violently as if struck by an earthquake.
"What? Someone actually dared to attack Xuanlong Inn, how is this possible?" Shangguan Zitong's body shuddered, eyes filled with disbelief.
It's known that Xuanlong Inn was built by experts from the Human King Hall, specifically for geniuses like them to rest and cultivate.
But now, someone was attacking the array outside Xuanlong Inn.
This was simply lawless.
Could it be that the attacker wasn't afraid of completely angering the experts of the Human King Hall?
"Who could be so bold, daring to attack Xuanlong Inn."
"Hmph! Truly tired of living." At this time, besides Shangguan Zitong, the prodigies residing in Xuanlong Inn were also alarmed, all looking furious to the extreme.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The next moment, numerous experts flew out from Xuanlong Inn, wanting to see who dared to cause trouble in this place.
Among these experts, many were talented disciples of Ziwei Sacred Land.
After all, Xuanlong Inn was specially built for people of noble status like them.
"Shangguan Zitong, come out and die! Today, there's no one above or below the heavens who can save you." At this moment, a cold and merciless voice suddenly echoed in everyone's ears, brimming with a fierce killing intent.
The speaker was Lin Tong's second brother, Chi Feng.
He was the one who just attacked the array outside Xuanlong Inn, alarming everyone.
