Hearing what Zhao Hong said, Yang Qi nodded secretly. He was so concerned that he almost forgot this point. If Yuan Jiu and others fought directly with Hong Ming Patriarch, it would not be casualties, but the annihilation of the whole army, because Hong Ming Patriarch's strength could easily kill them!
"What was Taiyi Sect's reaction to the death of Patriarch Hong Ming?" Yang Qi asked hurriedly.
Ancestor Hong Ming was a real high-ranking figure in Taiyi Sect, one of the few high-ranking Martial Emperors. The accidental death of Ancestor Hong Ming probably angered the entire Taiyi Sect. You have to know that the life-saving items they have are limited. If they provoke powerful cultivation forces, no matter how many life-saving items they have, they will eventually run out. At that time, any two or three-star Martial Emperor can easily kill them all.
"I think the Taiyi Sect should not have any reaction right now." Before Zheng Jie could speak, Shi Zhong on the side said with a smirk on his face.
Zheng Jie nodded slightly, then glanced at Shi Zhong before saying, "Brother Shi is right. Taiyi Sect really didn't react at all, as if this incident had never happened."
"how so?"
Deng Qing was stunned and said in disbelief.
Patriarch Hong Ming was a true high-ranking figure in Taiyi Sect, one of the most powerful men. One can imagine how important it was to Taiyi Sect. Now that Patriarch Hong Ming was dead, why didn't Taiyi Sect have any reaction at all
"The reason is very simple, because Taiyi Sect is too weak. We can't afford to provoke them and we can't afford to lose." Shi Zhong said calmly.
As someone who once controlled an ancient city and a powerful cultivation family, Shi Zhong's way of thinking is not just from the perspective of a cultivator himself, but he can often look at things from the perspective of a cultivation force.
"I see."
Upon hearing this, Yang Qi nodded and said, "Ancestor Hong Ming was already one of the most powerful men in Taiyi Sect. He was killed by Yuan Jiu and others. Even if we send out other powerful men, they may be in danger of falling."
“And the life-saving item that can kill a high-level Martial Emperor must be refined by at least a peak Martial Emperor, or even a Martial Emperor. No matter which one it is, Taiyi Sect cannot afford to provoke it. If we continue to attack Yuan Jiu and others, we may not only provoke the strong men behind Yuan Jiu and others, but we may also suffer huge losses on our side. A sect that has existed for countless years is not going to risk the entire sect because of personal grudges.” Yang Qi said in a deep voice.
After hearing Yang Qi's words, everyone understood and nodded.
If Taiyi Sect continues to attack, it will not be able to find Yuan Jiu and others, which will waste manpower and financial resources. Even if they find them and kill them easily, they may provoke the strong men behind Yuan Jiu and others. If they find them, some strong men will be killed by Yuan Jiu and others, which will also cause huge losses. In order to hunt down a few martial king realm practitioners, taking such a big risk and paying such a high price, unless the senior leaders of Taiyi Sect are collectively stupid, otherwise it is impossible to make such a decision.
After all, the Taiyi Sect was too weak. If the Taiyi Sect had a Martial Emperor or a large number of high-level Martial Emperors, they would definitely not swallow their anger like this. After all, killing one of the sect's top warriors would result in a considerable loss for the sect and was also a provocation.
It’s a pity that the methods of Yuan Jiu and others are too terrifying. Not knowing where Yuan Jiu and others came from, and not knowing whether Yuan Jiu and others have the means to kill high-level Martial Emperors, Taiyi Sect dares not act rashly!
"In that case, if we kill Old Ancestor Hong Ming, Yuan Jiu and others will be safe?" Liu Qingpeng frowned.
Shi Zhong nodded, and then said, "You can say that, but if Yuan Jiu and others continue to stay in this star field, they may be discovered by the Taiyi Sect and be killed."
Continue to stay in this star field
How is that possible!
They were just passing by. They would only stay if they encountered trouble or the teleportation array could not be opened for a short time. Otherwise, they were always rushing towards Tianhuang Palace. How could they possibly continue to stay in this star field
Yuan Jiu and the others were safe and sound, which also made Yang Qi feel relieved. In the next few days, there was no movement in Taiyi Sect, but ordinary practitioners who received the news were shocked. Those practitioners who were planning to find the whereabouts of Yuan Jiu and others naturally did not dare to continue searching. After all, they were a group of people who could kill even high-level martial emperors. If they met Yuan Jiu and the others, wouldn't they be sending themselves to death
When the teleportation array was opened, Yang Qi and his group took it and left. In a blink of an eye, nearly a year had passed. Except for hearing about Yuan Jiu and others' whereabouts because of the reward offered by Hong Ming Patriarch, Yang Qi never heard any news about Yuan Jiu and others. In addition to the news about Yuan Jiu and others, there was no news about the other team. This was not surprising. Three teams and thirty-six martial king peak practitioners were not worth mentioning to Tianhuang Holy Land.
As Yang Qi and others traveled during this period of time, they were getting closer and closer to Tianhuang Palace. As they got closer to Tianhuang Palace, the cultivation forces they passed by became more and more powerful, and the territories controlled by these cultivation forces became wider and wider, and as a result, they became safer.
After all, the more powerful the cultivation force, the more attention it pays to internal stability. With these powerful cultivation forces in place, even if there are some evil practitioners, they will not be able to affect the stability of the entire star field.
However, this is not absolute. For example, the star field where Yang Qi and others are now located is a cultivation force with a mid-level martial emperor in charge. However, the territory controlled by this cultivation force is in a war with two other cultivation forces of similar strength. Because of the war between the three cultivation forces, the star field near the battlefield is in great chaos.
"It was my mistake this time. I should have found out more clearly." Zheng Jie blamed himself.
They had originally planned to take the teleportation array to this star region, but the teleportation array over there had been closed, and Zheng Jie didn't think much about it, so they just traveled through space and planned to take the teleportation array here to continue their journey. Who would have thought that they spent a lot of time rushing here, only to find that this was actually the edge of the battlefield, and it was for this reason that the teleportation array here had been destroyed long ago.
Chen Jie heard this and shook his head slightly, "It's not your fault. The war between the three major cultivation forces has been going on for hundreds of thousands of years. The news of the war has spread a long time ago. It was our own negligence."
The practitioners in the nearby star fields all knew that this area was a battlefield, but these outsiders did not know that they rushed here rashly when the teleportation array could not teleport them, and ended up running directly into the edge of the battlefield. After all, they only had the direction to the Tianhuang Palace, and it was impossible for them to know what areas they would pass through along the way. This was also an important reason why they kept encountering troubles and dangers along the way. (To be continued)
