Every time she approached the front, the disciples of the Three Pure Ones would remind her of what lay ahead, and Gu Chaoyan would carefully navigate the challenges and obstacles in her path.
As a result…
They reached the ancient monk’s sacred residence without any major difficulties.
“Here we are,” the disciples of the Three Pure Ones exclaimed with excitement as they beheld the scene before them.
“Let’s explore inside,” Gu Chaoyan couldn’t contain her enthusiasm.
However, instead of moving forward, the disciples of the Three Pure Ones wore enigmatic smiles as they fixed their gazes on Gu Chaoyan.
In an instant…
The disciples of the Three Pure Ones launched a sudden attack on Gu Chaoyan, the Head of the Undead Race, and Di Hongyun.
The unexpected assault caught the Head of the Undead Race off guard, leaving him with a grievous wound on his arm.
Gu Chaoyan regarded them with a furrowed brow. “Regretting your decision?”
One of the disciples of the Three Pure Ones offered a brief smile. “The ancient practitioners’ sacred residence holds treasures far beyond your imagination.
We won’t simply hand over such riches.”
“Now that we’ve found the sacred residence, you’re of no further use to us. Rest in peace,” the Three Pure Ones’ disciple said coldly, devoid of emotion in his eyes.
Gu Chaoyan had been earnest in her intentions to cooperate with the disciples of the Three Pure Ones, but they had other plans in mind — plans she had never anticipated.
They were using her, with intentions to eventually dispose of her.
Gu Chaoyan drew her white jade sword, channeling the power of her lineage, and retaliated fiercely. The disciples of the Three Pure Ones were taken aback by her unexpected martial prowess, clearly surprised.
Meanwhile, during their journey…
He had already gained a clear understanding of their capabilities.
None of the three individuals possessed exceptional skills, nor were they Paragons. One of them was even nursing an injury.
In his assessment, they were certainly preparing to make a move.
Unexpectedly, he found himself struggling in this confrontation.
While the two sides battled, the sound of approaching footsteps echoed. Gu Chaoyan turned around to spot martial arts masters from different schools approaching.
The disciples of the Three Pure Ones were equally taken aback.
They had located the ancient monk’s sacred residence thanks to a map, but what brought these newcomers here?
A standoff developed between the disciples of the Three Pure Ones and Gu
Chaoyan.
It was impossible for him to eliminate Gu Chaoyan swiftly.
Yet, if they continued fighting and internal strife erupted, these newcomers might seize the opportunity to infiltrate the sacred residence and plunder its treasures.
so…
It wasn’t the right time for further action.
The disciples of the Three Pure Ones ceased their assault, and Gu Chaoyan refrained from pursuing.
Everyone proceeded toward the sacred residence.
As the first person set foot inside the holy mansion, it abruptly crumbled into a heap of yellow sand, billowing across everyone’s faces. The initial intruder narrowly avoided being buried by the cascading sand.
“What’s happening here?”
Before them, there was no supposed holy mansion. Instead, they stood in the wilderness, surrounded by endless stretches of sand.
It was as if the holy mansion had transformed into a mere mirage.
Shock and confusion gripped everyone.
Gu Chaoyan was now certain that this wasn’t the sacred residence of the ancient monk.
In this very moment…
They noticed they were descending gradually, and their legs sank into the yellow sand..
