“Eh? Do you think it’s that demon child? Maybe only he has such capabilities!”
“Yeah, that’s possible!”
“I don’t think so. Demon Child has been sealed away for countless years, and his powers have reduced significantly. He wouldn’t make enemies everywhere when he has just returned to the world. Although he’s called Demon Child, his intelligence isn’t like any ordinary child. It wasn’t easy for him to regain his freedom, so he wouldn’t dig his own grave like this!”
“So if that’s the case, what could have happened to the Netherworld Demon Sect? Had Mo Lin been crazy enough to use his disciples as sacrifices to his sword?!”
Everyone’s imagination ran wild as they came up with all kinds of conjectures.
After all, they didn’t dare believe that the Netherworld Demon Sect, at its peak, had really been eradicated.
Even though this was what all of them had hoped for.
“Why don’t we go take a look together? Perhaps the Netherworld Demon Sect has really been destroyed by the Demon Child or some unknown expert. We might be able to finish off any remnants still alive if we lead the way!” said the Sovereign of the Sky Dao Sect.
What he said might not seem like much on the surface, but it contained a lot of information.
Even though he said it was to finish off the survivors, everyone knew that the meaning behind it was to divide the wealth of the Netherworld Demon Sect.
Although the other party was a fiend sect, there was no absolute distinction between orthodox and demonic, such as spirit stones, spirit herbs, medicinal pills, magic treasures, or even some cultivation techniques.
Everyone knew how massive the wealth of such a powerful sect possessed.
After the Heavenly Water Pavilion was destroyed, those from the Jade Pure Dao Sect had obtained the most benefits since they arrived first.
Humans die for wealth, while birds die for food. Although nothing was confirmed yet, everyone was instantly energized and agreed to the proposal.
They returned to gather their disciples and prepared to head to the Mo Prefecture together.
…
In the Eastern Palace of the Great Xia Dynasty, Murong Xingqiao also saw the changes in the Hidden Dragon Rankings and was rather shocked.
“Those from the Netherworld Demon Sect have disappeared!” Murong Xingqiao’s heart suddenly began to race.
Thinking of the incident at the Heavenly Water Pavilion, a bold idea surfaced in her mind.
The Netherworld Demon Sect must have been annihilated!
If the Netherworld Demon Sect was really destroyed, it would surely be a joyous occasion for the Great Xia Dynasty.
The fiend sects had been rampant for years, wreaking havoc in their areas. The commoners had suffered terribly, but the imperial government could do nothing to deal with the problems.
Now, the Netherworld Demon Sect had even colluded with the Wolf King Clan to invade the territory of the Grand Xia Dynasty and murder its citizens.
It threatened the peace of the Great Xia Dynasty and drilled fear into everyone in the world.
Of course, personally speaking, the Netherworld Demon Sect was a primary threat to her.
Murong Xingqiao also knew that the Netherworld Demon Sect was in cahoots with her third brother, Murong Taisheng, and the Luo family.
It was precisely her third brother and the Luo Clan who helped the Netherworld Demon Sect grow more prosperous over the years by providing cover for benefits. Nowadays, the sect has become more and more daring.
The Wolf King’s clan’s invasion of Mo Prefecture should also be linked to her third brother.
He probably wanted to use this opportunity to eliminate the Ye Family’s influence.
The Netherworld Demon Sect would have become a trump card for her third brother in the future.
Hence, if the Netherworld Demon Sect was really eliminated, then it would remove a huge concern in her heart.
However, when she thought of the power of Mo Lin and the Netherworld Demon Sect, Murong Xingqiao felt that it seemed unlikely.
In the entire Grand Xia Dynasty, no one could possess such strength.
