If Ye Tianfan can hurry back now, he could still participate in the upcoming battle because it has been about two and a half months since that organization's full-scale attack.
Thinking of this, Ye Tianfan hastily asked the survivors, "What place is this area? Taichu Sect, do you know which direction leads to the Taichu Sect?"
Upon hearing Ye Tianfan's question, the survivors scratched their heads in confusion before speaking, "Immortal Grandmaster, this is the territory of Celestial Water City, but as for how to get to the number one sect, the Taichu Sect, we really don't know. We are just ordinary people and have no understanding of the location of the Immortal Sect. The information we have cos from rchants and young nobles. What we know, we've already told the Immortal Grandmaster; we really don't know anything else!"
Hearing this, Ye Tianfan sighed deeply; it seed the road ho was still fraught with difficulties!
At this mont, Ye Tianfan was ready to move forward, as there was no ti to lose. Moving forward, soone should know the whereabouts of the Taichu Sect!
However, before leaving, these survivors needed to be dealt with since this place was already unsuitable for living. Ye Tianfan planned to take them along. When they reached a town ahead, he would place them there since they were few in number and only n. They couldn't establish a new village, and even if they did, it wouldn't develop or continue.
Nonetheless, this needed to be discussed with them since it concerned their future lives.
So Ye Tianfan asked, "I'll continue forward; do you know if there are any towns ahead?"
"Ahead?" The survivors thought for a mont, then said, "There seems to be Shuiyun City ahead. It's the largest town in this area. If nothing has happened there, the Immortal Grandmaster might get the answers he needs!"
"Alright!" Ye Tianfan nodded and then asked, "What about you guys? Do you need to take you there?"
The survivors were moved by Ye Tianfan's words but soon looked at each other and said, "Thanks for the Immortal Grandmaster's kindness; we were born in Celestial Water City, and our wives and children are there, taken away. We must wait for their return!"
Ye Tianfan fell silent hearing this, then said, "What if they never co back?"
"Yes! Even if they don't return, we will still wait! I believe they will co back one day!" These resolute n said, tears welling in their eyes.
Ye Tianfan understood they would not leave with him. Their mission was to wait for their loved ones to return!
Ye Tianfan sighed deeply and said, "Alright, I hope you can wait until that day." He didn't say anything more, knowing that saying more was useless since they all understood the wait was nearly hopeless, even more so than cultivating to the Taichu realm.
But they chose to wait here for that sliver of hope, in a place no longer suitable for living, simply because of their deep love for their wives and children.
Ye Tianfan said to them, "If that's the case, I will leave now. Are you sure you don't want to go to the next city to live?"
The survivors shook their heads and said, "We appreciate the Immortal Grandmaster's goodwill, but we still need to wait for our wives and children."
Ye Tianfan nodded to them, then picked up his nails again, flew in the direction the survivors had pointed out, and left!
Watching Ye Tianfan leave, the survivors gave a bitter smile. If they could leave, how could they not want to follow? But without their loved ones, even if they left, what hope would they have? Living would just be like the walking dead!
With a heavy heart, Ye Tianfan flew, pondering that the hardships those survivors endured were all due to the sins of that organization.
Thinking about it, Ye Tianfan's hatred for that organization grew stronger.
Following the direction ntioned by the survivors, Ye Tianfan saw a huge city and felt it was enveloped by a large Array. Outside the Array, he sensed a trace of murderous spirit.
It seed a battle had occurred outside the city's Array not long ago, and it was very fierce.
After all, the lingering murderous energy indicated an extrely intense battle!
It seed that the city had also been invaded by those creatures, but this Array seed to have kept them outside without affecting the city's residents.
It appeared to be very safe here.
Thinking of this, Ye Tianfan prepared to enter Shuiyun City.
However, as he was about to fly down, he realized he was carrying these nails. If mistaken for a creature and the Array was triggered, it would be disastrous. Moreover, with no place to store these nails in the town, Ye Tianfan decided to leave them outside the city.
But he feared the nails might be stolen since the existence of the Array suggested the possible presence of cultivators. Cultivators had keen eyes and could easily recognize the nails' extraordinary nature. Therefore, Ye Tianfan decided to write sothing on them, as their theft could infuriate him!
Ye Tianfan placed the nails at the edge of the town.
Just then, Ye Tianfan saw Shuiyun City's guards eyeing him suspiciously, fearing he might be one of those creatures.
Ye Tianfan smiled without speaking, and from the Xuanhuang Tower, he pulled out a brush and ink. Don't ask why these things were prepared inside the tower because Ye Tianfan had once bought a lot from a market.
With the ink-dipped brush, Ye Tianfan wrote on the nails, "This property has an owner, belonging to a disciple of the Taichu Sect, do not take!"
After writing this, Ye Tianfan landed on the ground and slowly walked towards Shuiyun City.
