She was using Xuelai’s identity and preferred not to expose her cultivation, but at this juncture, she had no other option.
“Step back,” Gu Chaoyan manded with cold authority.
Adams and the sorcerer subconsciously retreated. Though her tone was typically assertive, Adams sensed a different aura about Xuelai at this moment.
Gathering her spiritual energy, Gu Chaoyan struck a small hill not far away. The hill quivered and collapsed after being hit by the spiritual energy. Continuing to use her spiritual energy, she propelled the hill into the pool.
The once-unfathomable pool was finally measured, reaching a depth of at least the height of a small mountain ten feet.
As the water in the pool seeped into the soil, the mountain, previously adorned with large trees, absorbed the water. The verdant trees, once corroded into black trunks, regained their natural color.
While not a perfect solution, this method proved sufficient.
Simultaneously, the black-robed man, having left the mountain, sensed something amiss. Anxious upon learning that over 10,000 people had fled, he rushed back with the Huang Clan’s Tribe Chief to intervene. However, the scattered escapees, originally at the mountain’s foot, dispersed in all directions, and the Huang Clan, relying on their numbers, refrained from pursuit.
An unease settled upon him something was not right.
The Tribe Chief of the Huang Clan explained that the clansmen subconsciously worshipped and feared the larger clans, and no matter how many clansmen there were, they dared not act rashly in the Huang Clan. However, all the clansmen mentioned by the Tribe Chief had now fled, indicating that someone was controlling them.
“Let’s go back,” the black-robed man suggested.
“We haven’t captured them yet,” the anxious Huang Clan leader protested. He hoped the black-robed man would use his cultivation to chase the escapees back.
“Let’s go,” the black-robed man curtly responded, leaving the Tribe Chief of the Huang Clan with no choice but to follow. Before leaving, he instructed, “We must capture all of them, no matter where they escape to.”
Upon their return, the black-robed man headed straight for the pool.
“Tribe Chief, your daughter isn’t here. Where is she? If I find out that she went there alone, I won’t let her off on your account,” the black-robed man questioned.
The secret was known by three people, including his daughter. The black-robed man trusted none of them. Not seeing his daughter Camilla upon his return made him suspicious.
“She wouldn’t dare. Don’t worry,” the Huang Clan leader assured.
“You’d better.”
As they hurried over, the surroundings fell silent.
The black-robed man sighed in relief when he saw the destroyed pool. “Who did this?” His anger made his voice hoarse and unpleasant.
Gu Chaoyan, Adams, and the sorcerer remained silent in the tree. Originally intending to leave, they had hidden upon hearing approaching footsteps. Now, they observed the black-robed man’s reactions closely.
And at this moment…
