Lin Ji smiled bitterly, looked at his empty left hand, and said softly: "I guess what you are most concerned about is what happened to the people in Liyang City. I can tell you now that a total of 9,462 people died that night, 5,000 of whom were killed by Elder Yu before Mingjue could protect them with his own body."

"The order in Liyang City has stabilized now, but everyone is still worried, fearing that such a disaster will happen again. Therefore, the two of them are now tied to the altar and guarded day and night."

When An Ling heard this, she raised her head in bed and tried to get up. Ayimu quickly laid her down and sighed, "Just lie down first. With your current physical condition, there's no point in being anxious."

Lin Ji continued, "After we resisted Elder Yu for about half an incense stick of time, she suddenly stopped and stood there motionless. No matter how we shouted, she did not respond. Sect Master Luo also fell from the air to the ground. The two of them were used as human sandbags by the angry crowd. I don't know whether it was fortunate or unfortunate that the monks' strong bodies protected them from all harm."

"At any rate, they are still alive."

An Ling squeezed out a few hoarse sounds from the depths of her throat, and tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.

"We know that you succeeded, but your condition afterwards was similar to the two of them. You even lost your breath at one point."

Wu Baiquan sneered, "Yeah, you guys wish An Ling was dead, right? If I wasn't here, you would have burned her body!"

"I don't care how you look at me," Lin Ji said calmly. He raised his gentle eyebrows, but the stubbornness in his eyes was the same as before. "It is natural to guess that the New Moon Immortal and An Ling disappeared at the same time. You are also very clear about the harm of the New Moon Immortal. I don't think I did anything wrong."

"What about An Ling!" Wu Baiquan shouted excitedly. He was a typical person who only helped his relatives and not others. Here, there were only two Canglan disciples left to depend on each other. If he didn't protect An Ling, who else would?

"Should a hero who sacrificed everything for an unrelated person be burned to death just because of your unfounded suspicion?!"

Lin Ji did not refute, he just nodded and agreed: "What you said makes sense. Since the real An Ling has woken up, it proves that you are right. I will not interfere in this part of the problem anymore."

"Just get to the point." Ayimu said coldly, "Now is not the time to blame each other. The Crescent Moon Immortal has fallen into a deep sleep for unknown reasons, and the Futian Army is leaderless. It's time for us to organize a counterattack!"

"We can discuss this later." Unexpectedly, Lin Ji and Wu Baiquan reached a consensus. He looked at the painful An Ling and continued, "Let An Ling know what happened first."

"After the Crescent Moon Immortal fell asleep, the Crescent Moon Cult's prayers were no longer answered, and the entire cult fell into suspicion. The immortal ghost skeleton army lost control and stopped in the suburbs of Beijing, constantly emitting death energy."

"This is an unprecedented victory in the past two months. An Ling, you have accomplished something that no one dared to think of by yourself."

"Alas, this is what I am worried about. Do you still remember what happened between the three of us in Jiangning?"

An Ling was silent. She had been suspicious of Lin Ji since she first met him - she had killed Lin Ji with her own hands, and even his body had fallen into the boundless void. How did he come back to life?

"I still underestimated the power of the Heavenly Dao fragment. Not only did I fail to control it, but I became its new host. It hid in my body and guided my thoughts, making me irritable and moody. That period of time was a shadow of my life."

"Do you want to know how I woke up? Haha, it's very simple and funny. The fragments of the Heavenly Dao in my body sensed a certain call and left my body on their own. Fortunately, Daoist Fellow Baiquan and Master Mingjue took our bodies away from the underground palace. Only then were we completely freed from the contamination of the fragments of the Heavenly Dao."

Wu Baiquan continued, "At that time, we were captured by Tianxuan Yuanjun and taken to a small world. After someone broke the small world, we fell into a Dabei-style underground palace. Haha, Tianxuan Yuanjun was able to find this place. I'm afraid that the murder in that cave was committed by her."

Lin Ji's face darkened instantly, and he retorted: "My master would never do such a thing!"

"How much do you know about her? Do you know why she can stay young forever? It's because she eats people! Eats the souls of ordinary people!"

"Impossible!" Lin Ji was furious. He would not allow anyone to spread rumors about his respected master.

Aimu smiled sinisterly and interrupted, "He still doesn't believe it. I really don't know if he is from the Tianqiong Sect. I am the one who helps Tianxuan do the dirty work, but he doesn't even believe the evidence right in front of him. Tsk tsk tsk, he is so naive and ridiculous."

Lin Ji listened to the two people's sarcastic remarks, his heart beating violently. He sat there and took a few deep breaths before he regained control of his emotions.

"Tianxuan Yuanjun used tens of thousands of mortal corpses to cover up the fragments of the Heavenly Dao in the cave," Wu Baiquan opened his mouth and exploded. After throwing out words like bombs, he continued to challenge An Ling's nerves. "When Mingjue and I arrived, we found that the two of them were kneeling there worshiping the glowing fragments, like they were possessed by demons. As a result, the mantis stalked the cicada, but the oriole was behind. There were two people who had been secretly following us and trying to sneak attack Mingjue and me!"

"Perhaps it was fate that allowed us to narrowly avoid the light ball, which was the fragment of the Heavenly Dao, and their sneak attack. Only then did we get a clear look at the two 'yellow birds'."

Wu Baiquan sighed, "Do you remember the female disciple from the Ten Thousand Demons Valley who tried to scam you under the giant Brahma tree? The one named Nalan."

"Her biological brother went to Rulu Temple to become a monk. The two of them took advantage of the opportunity when Lin Ji went crazy and blew up the underground palace to sneak into the secret cave under the throne. After we cleared the way, they used the bowl to take away the fragment of the Heavenly Dao."

"Hey, I've never figured it out. Is there a traitor in every sect? That magic weapon that can take away the fragments of the Heavenly Dao is obviously from the Rulu Temple!"

Lin Ji said angrily: "Be careful with your words!"

"Haha," Aimu sneered. Now, she was blind in one eye, and the wounds on her body caused by Yu Lang had not yet healed. She had long lost her former beauty, and even her personality had changed drastically. She brushed away the thick hair covering her blind eye and said, "That's right, otherwise the temple wouldn't have closed down directly. The six major sects have lined up, but it stayed out of it. If you say it has some unspeakable secrets, I don't believe it."

"Rulu Temple...they just became monks and don't care about worldly affairs." Lin Ji wanted to struggle again.

"If I hadn't heard two days ago that they changed their Buddha to Crescent Moon Immortal, I would still believe you." Wu Baiquan said. He looked very decadent, with a beard on his face, and he looked as down and out as Guo Zichou.

"What do you mean?"

"You don't know yet?" Aimu sneered sharply, "Rulu Temple is open to guests! They have directly announced that they will cooperate with the Crescent Moon Sect to jointly build the Paradise!"

An Ling listened to everything they said, and the more she listened, the more desperate she became. What else could they do? How could they stick to their own path in this one-sided chaos?

"Let me count with you," Aimu smiled and counted on her fingers. Her face full of hair made her look like a madman. "The Sky Dome Sect was wiped out. The disciples of the Canglan Sword Sect announced that they had cut ties with the Sect Master and dispersed into the mortal world. The Seven Killing Sect was actually a traitor sect set up by the New Moon Immortal himself. The Ten Thousand Monster Valley had only a few people, but it also knelt down spinelessly. As for the Rulu Temple, it insisted on closing its doors for two months, and now it has directly changed its belief. It no longer believes in Buddha or Bodhisattva, but in the New Moon! Hey!"

Wu Baiquan sneered and said, "Then your Yuehua Sect is quite powerful. You used to be the dog of Tianqiong Sect, and now you are the dog of Xinyue Sect. Sects that like to be dogs cannot be stopped."

Aimu just laughed crazily. She clapped her hands and shouted, "Yes! You are so right! From the last order of the sect leader, we have been abandoned by her! Hahahaha, the followers of Yuehua Sect are really not human! We are just a bunch of dogs! We used to pave the way for Tianqiong Sect with our deaths, but now we have to serve as a gift for that woman to surrender to her new master! Haha...hahahahahaha!"

Lin Ji looked sadly at this woman who was arrogant and confident in the past. No matter what their identities were in the past, at this moment, they were just chess pieces in the hands of the big man... just abandoned pieces!

What else does the abandoned pawn want? What else can he do?
