Catching the bottle of Heavenly Law Liquid, Yan Zaizen pondered silently. His gaze never left Guàn Yin's figure. Her declaration indicated a complete and thorough cut-off from Guàn Yao, essentially, she was trading Guàn Yao's life for her own, and even decreed such circumstances to the entire continent.

Yan Zaizen recalled Bai Lufeng. In Grux, Yan Zaizen was going to kill Bai Lufeng with Diyi. Shockingly, Bai Lufeng decisively threw away Diyi like a piece of trash, no longer protecting her with his life, and taking off without hesitation. Not knowing the circumstances before, Yan Zaizen assumed he was a cold-blooded individual, but a smart one, nonetheless.

After Bai Lufeng had joined him, Yan Zaizen curiously asked why he was so decisive that day. His response left him feeling shaken.

”I didn't want to die for another person's action.”

It was that simple. It was this very reason he didn't massacre the entirety of the Soaring Cloud Sect or Earthly Titan Sect. To kill someone for another person's action felt ludacris to him, but it happened far too often in the cultivation world. Entire clans get implicated by a single choice of one person. Their result? Condemned to annihilation to the very last.

The Shin Clan of Shin Xuanji was like this. A few members likely orchestrated a plan for treason, so the entire clan was held responsible. Although one could deem it clearing the roots, it also felt a little needless. Yan Zaizen would never allow someone who offended him to live if it was a life or death grudge, but would he kill their sons, daughters, brothers or parents? Did they deserve death?

This very reason was why he didn't go blindly massacre the entire White Crane Sect indiscriminately. However, Guàn Yin's disciple was taken right out from under her nose, therefore, he felt that he had to kill her. She was directly offended, and she directly offended him by attacking with the intention to kill. Yet...here she was, delivering Heavenly Law Liquid and renouncing her disciple for her life so decisively.

If her support had stood by her side, it's entirely possible she would continue to press the attack in an alliance. However, considering the circumstances, she ceased immediately and searched for a way out.

”Cultivators…” Yan Zaizen felt like he understood more about the cultivation world and its experts. He felt that only experts like this, like Bai Lufeng and Guàn Yin, would be able to live a longer life and reach greater heights.

”Give me your defensive armament.” With a soft sigh, Yan Zaizen directly demanded. Despite revealing a reluctant expression, she immediately removed her flexible armor from underneath her clothes. It seemed to be fit perfectly towards her body, as the breast indentations were perfect for hers. It also suited tall and slim women.

With a throw, the armor arrived in Yan Zaizen's possession carrying a feminine scent. He checked the Heavenly Law Liquid once more, there were about ten or so drops in here, far less than what Gu Yu left him. However, he felt that someone of Gu Yu's strength was far greater than Guàn Yin, so it was to be expected.

”From henceforth, I, Yan Zaizen, shall have no qualms with the White Crane Sect over this matter. However, if you dare offend me…” His eyes turned violently vicious, exuding pure and unadulterated killing intent. Guàn Yin only nodded in response.

With that, he took a step, vanishing into the surroundings like a ghost.

At his departure, a sigh filled with relief and happiness sounded.

Three days passed.

Yan Zaizen was located within the Wu Clan's estate. Wu Yuanxu was sitting to the side, watching as Yan Zaizen worked for several days without rest. Continuously, he'd inject a bit of primal yin energy into Bai Lufeng's bodies, fill his body with vibrant lifeforce, and funnel soulforce into his soul. In these three days, Bai Lufeng no longer looked like a mummy. Instead, he looked normal. His body was beefy once more, his hair had a nice and vibrant sheen, his skin was without a blemish, and his primal yang seemed to be far stronger than before.

However, he hadn't woken up.

With his damage to his soul, his psyche was also inflicted similar damage. To recover, he'll have to pull together his instincts, memories, and personality into a single whole once more. This was only something he could do.

Several hours later.

”Cough! Cough!” Bai Lufeng hacked violently, as if he had just escaped from drowning in the ocean. His eyes were displayed deep confusion as he looked around. Suddenly, as if recalling a horrible memory, he shouted in despair and malicious violence, ”You'll die! You'll all die!!”

Yan Zaizen wasn't surprised. He only grasped Bai Lufeng's hand and sent a trace of soothing soul energy to calm his thoughts. After a while, his eyes finally focused on Yan Zaizen. ”Y-Young...Lord?”

”Tch. Look at you. Where's the Bai Lufeng from before? Hm?” Yan Zaizen snorted, looking away as if disappointed in Bai Lufeng. For a brief period, Bai Lufeng felt that he had died and gone to hell. The thought that flashed inside his mind was just his desire before death.

However, Yan Zaizen didn't allow that to continue.
