"Are many of you injured?" Zhi Chu Zhenren asked seriously, considering that if many were hurt, they needed to reassess the strength of the Demon cult's demons.
"Not many people are injured, and the injuries are very light, just surface injuries. The important thing is that the Demon Sect seems to have already called for reinforcents. It's estimated that in the next two days, the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji and so Elders and Hall Masters will co," Yu Shan analyzed.
"No worries, we anticipated they would co, so our Taichu Sect ca with five Chief Elders and several disciples," Ping Chu Zhenren said.
"Then everyone, please follow first to the campsite," said Yu Shan, nodding to everyone before turning to lead the way.
Everyone followed Yu Shan to the righteous faction's campsite, only to find that the environnt here was also sowhat poor.
"There's no choice but to set up camp here. In the better places, the demonic cultists would deploy patrols, but they won't co to places as wretched as this," Yu Shan saw the slightly disdainful expressions on everyone's faces and knew what they were thinking. They had originally chosen this place because they were equally disdainful, but could only smile wryly and say so.
"No matter, the environnt will be tolerable once you endure it. Safety first," Ping Chu Zhenren said.
Though the people of the Taichu Sect inwardly despised this place, not only was the sll unbearable, with demon beast bones everywhere and hordes of flies and mosquitoes, it was basically a garbage dump.
But for the sake of safety, they had to tolerate it, or else why would anyone want to stay in a place where demonic cultists could ambush at any mont?
After the people of the Taichu Sect arrived, Zhi Chu Zhenren had the disciples from Taiyi Peak set up camp, with tents pitched in neat rows. Using so unknown thods, they piled all the demon beast bones to one side. Then, Ping Chu Zhenren from Tai Zhen Peak chanted a few spells, took out several Array Banners from his robe, and placed them around the campsite. Instantly, the entire campsite beca clean and tidy, with no odor at all.
"This Array not only improves the environnt but also makes the campsite appear as dirty and ssy as before from the outside," Ping Chu Zhenren smiled and said.
"Thank you, Elder Ping Chu!" Yu Shan gave a deep bow to Ping Chu Zhenren, representing the thanks of everyone at the campsite. If the environnt could improve, who would want to stay in a bad environnt where even breathing deeply would make them feel dizzy?
Ping Chu Zhenren waved his hands, indicating it was nothing, and then the five Chief Elders of the Taichu Sect, along with representatives from other righteous sects, gathered in a tent to hold a eting on strategy.
The remaining people could rest as they had not fully recovered, and this was a chance to restore themselves completely.
Ye Tianfan then sought out Yu Shan.
"Senior Brother Yu Shan, how are your injuries? I have Golden Sore Ointnt here, it can quickly heal surface wounds," Ye Tianfan said worriedly, noticing the bloodstains under Yu Shan's garnts.
"Junior Brother Tianfan, I'm fine. The wounds are almost healed. It's great to see you're unhard. You know, Junior Brother Yu Ping has been blaming himself all along; he thought he had a chance to save you but reacted a bit slow, missing the opportunity," Yu Shan was sowhat surprised to see Ye Tianfan, a smile flashed across his face, but he held it together and spoke with a smile.
"No worries, Senior Brother Yu Ping shouldn't bla himself. Given the situation at the ti, if he tried to save , we both would have been buried under falling rocks," Ye Tianfan waved his hand, indicating it was nothing, though he was full of gratitude inside. Thinking back to the critical mont, he couldn't find an opportunity to save the ones behind him even if he were in front, yet Senior Brother Yu Ping felt guilty for not rescuing him.
"If Junior Brother Yu Ping knew you were safe, he'd be very relieved. He didn't co here this ti because he's too hard on himself," Yu Shan said to Ye Tianfan.
Ye Tianfan nodded, and then Yu Shan asked Ye Tianfan how he had escaped at the ti, considering they had stayed outside guarding for several days, leaving only when it beca impossible to continue.
Ye Tianfan briefly explained, describing how he found a secret passage to escape, inadvertently reaching the Demon Sect Headquarters, and learning about their plan.
Yu Shan listened, marveling at the dangers involved; it was truly a life-and-death escape. The most perilous part was Ye Tianfan accidentally venturing deep into the Demon Sect Headquarters. Imagining how tense those monts must have been, yet he managed to deceive the Demon Sect Leader Zhang Youji and return safely; it was truly remarkable, even uncovering a stunning plan of the Demon Sect. Although the exact details were unknown, they at least learned it was a plan aid at the entire world, allowing them to prevent it sooner.
At this ti, Senior Brother Yun Tian also ca over, ready to chat with Ye Tianfan, expressing his concern, but was interrupted when soone shouted, "Enemy attack!"
Imdiately, Ye Tianfan and the others summoned their Magical Treasures. Yu Shan hadn't expected they could find them here; given they had chosen such a filthy and disorderly place.
It seed that the Demon sect mbers unintentionally discovered them while on patrol, as they had been camped here for several days.
When Ye Tianfan and the others arrived at the site of the shouting, they found the confrontation had already started. Judging by the looks of the Demon sect mbers, there weren't many of them, and they seed quite panicked.
Yu Shan saw the condition of the Demon sect mbers and relaxed, saying to Ye Tianfan and Senior Brother Yun Tian, "It seems they stumbled upon us during their patrol; if we resolve this situation, they won't discover us."
Ye Tianfan nodded in agreent, thinking that the situation was exactly as Yu Shan described; otherwise, there wouldn't be only three or five of them, each looking as frightened as they were.
The disciple who had shouted 'Enemy attack!' was quite embarrassed, realizing that it was only a small group of Demon sect mbers who had unintentionally co here and could be easily captured. His alarm, however, had startled the entire camp, even mobilizing the Chief Elder of the Taichu Sect and other key figures.
So, the disciple summoned his Magical Treasure and charged towards the Demon sect mbers, with a few close companions joining to help.
In no ti at all, the infiltrating Demon sect mbers were captured alive, allowing them to extract intelligence from them.
That disciple took on the task of gathering intelligence without being blad, which sowhat alleviated his embarrassnt.
