Chapter 2639: Chapter 360_5
Suddenly, Cao Zhen’s eyebrows furrowed deeply, and he said coldly, "Stopping me? Are you looking to battle with us once again?"
Clearly, Elder Hei Xun was blocking their way to stall for time. By now, the people from the Human Clan’s Great Teachings must have gone everywhere to find the Human Clan and then hide some of them.
The longer he stalled, the more Humans the others could conceal.
Elder Hei Xun furrowed his brows and was about to speak when figures flew over from a distance.
"Hundred Peaks Sect Leader, you’re too impatient. See, aren’t people coming now?"
Cao Zhen glanced at the approaching figures, then didn’t even bother to look at them again, flying directly into the distance. While flying, he said, "Well, let’s begin then. They should also be aware of the situation we’re facing now."
He didn’t look at the others because he was truly afraid he would be unable to resist killing these traitors directly.
Elder Hei Xun didn’t mention the consequences of killing those Humans, but doing so would provide the Sky Clan a reason to stir trouble, and possibly an excuse to prohibit them from continuing to receive Humans here. Hence, he purposely relayed the message to the arriving Sword Lord San Cai and others not to kill those traitors.
Later, they would have plenty of time to deal with the Human traitors. Now, they needed to bring these mortals back to their Four Continents first.
Cao Zhen flew away, and shortly after, he felt a figure flying up from behind.
Sect Leader Dian Feng.
He couldn’t possibly know all the experts of the Human Clan, but the person behind him was someone he had seen before. He was the Sect Hierarch of a Great Teaching in the Eastern Province who had always been in the Eastern Province, but now had betrayed the Human Clan and entered the Central Continent.
Soon, a village appeared within his sight.
Cao Zhen descended directly from the Void, and beside him, Immortal Lord Lin Feng, Rabbit Demon Immortal Monarch, and other cultivators also landed. They had always been following closely beside Cao Zhen, making Sword Lord San Cai and the others completely relieved.
After all, now there were four beings of the Golden Immortal Realm beside Cao Zhen, making it not easy to eradicate them.
Despite the Sky Clan’s claim to unite, Sword Lord San Cai and others were also afraid—what if a cultivator from the Sky Clan suddenly decided to attack Cao Zhen?
After all, Cao Zhen was truly too important.
This village seemed quite sizable, but there weren’t many people in it.
Seeing each cultivator arriving, villagers in the village suddenly ran out, seemingly wanting to watch the commotion.
But soon, they noticed that the newcomers included some from the Alien Race and their faces showed frightened gray-purple expressions.
Even so, they did not exclaim or immediately turn to flee.
Besides the arriving Human Clan members, it was likely related to the appearances of Immortal Lord Lin Feng and Immortal Lord Yao Tu; the two didn’t seem to be evil and malicious individuals.
Cao Zhen noticed the villagers’ panic, promptly speaking to reassure them, "Everyone, no need to worry. They will not harm you; they are just here with me.
I am here this time to rescue you."
"Rescue us? How to rescue us?"
Across from Cao Zhen, one of the villagers, an elder, asked full of curiosity, while other villagers around showed expressions of confusion.
Cao Zhen patiently explained, "It’s like this: I am a cultivator from the Eastern Province, and you know the Eastern Province, right?"
"Of course we know the Eastern Province," the elder immediately said upon hearing, "I know we are in the Central Continent, besides our Central Continent, there are also the Western continent, Eastern Province, Southern continent, and Northern continent. Immortal, you are from the Eastern Province? What is the Eastern Province like; has it also been occupied by these aliens?"
"Not at all," Cao Zhen explained, "Our Eastern Province currently has no Alien Race."
"No Alien Race?" The elder’s face instantly showed longing and exclaimed, "So there, none of those aliens would oppress or massacre our Human Clan?"
"No," Cao Zhen emphasized, assuring, "There, the Human Clan are the masters!"
Sect Leader Dian Feng watched the elder and those villagers longing faces, internally worried, and quickly said, "Actually, the Eastern Province only currently has no aliens. There will be aliens in the future.
Previously, the races entering the Central Continent to attack was because of inter-racial wars. Now, the races have signed a treaty to coexist peacefully. Thus, naturally, other aliens will enter the Eastern Province, and the Humans in the Eastern Province cannot stop those aliens from coming."
As he spoke, he raised his hand towards Cao Zhen, indicating towards several women beside him: "Just like them, they..."
Before he finished, an incomparably icy aura suddenly surged from Immortal Lord Lin Feng’s body. She raised her hand and pointed at Sect Leader Dian Feng, and instantly, a piercing gale shot from her fingertip.
This gale was like a blue dragon flying out from beyond the Ninth Heaven, carrying a force that seemed capable of tearing the world apart, charging straight at Sect Leader Dian Feng.
Sect Leader Dian Feng didn’t even have the chance to react; he only saw a flash of blue light. The next moment, sharp pain from his chest surged, followed by his entire body slumping down heavily to the ground, with his chest pierced through.
"Blood, there’s blood!"
"Ah..."
The sudden turn of events terrified many villagers around who retreated backward in fear.
