91: Extremely angry woman

"Run! Run!"

Inside the Coral Fortress, nearly half—almost fifty thousand Cultivators—were fleeing. They joyfully escaped outside the Aether Coral Fortress.

Although most of them still had the collars around their necks, escaping at this moment was the most important thing.

At this moment, both male and female Cultivators were using all their means, wishing they could run even further.

Stepping onto the land outside the Aether Coral Fortress, they were all exceptionally happy.

However, this happiness did not last long; it transformed instantly.

Those running the fastest discovered another curtain of light rising ahead.

Immediately after, to the left, the right, and the back.

Four even more massive, towering curtains of light rose, trapping everyone inside like a cage.

Everyone's expressions changed drastically, not understanding what was happening.

Amidst their confusion, over a hundred figures were seen entering the light curtain while treading on Flying Swords.

The leader wore a black feathered crown, a cruel and bloodthirsty smile hanging on his face.

When they saw this person, the Cultivators felt as if the sky had collapsed.

"It's the Fortress Master!!!"

No one knew who shouted it, but many Cultivators' legs immediately went weak with fear; every single one of them was filled with extreme terror.

"Wasn't it said he took a large force to the ruins?"

"How can he be here!"

"This is a trap! This is a grand scheme meticulously laid out to deal with us!"

"It's over! It's all over!"

Everyone was despondent, their faces showing expressions of despair.

Following closely behind were even more members of the Execution Squad from afar, and even the Apprehension Squad from near the Aether Coral Fortress appeared.

Estimated to be about ten thousand in number, they came grandly from all directions; these were all Cultivators at their absolute Peak state.

Clearly, the Aether Fortress Master was fully prepared and had laid an inescapable net.

"Hehe..."

"You trash, this Fortress Master let you eat and drink well, yet you dare to betray me!"

"Today, you all shall undoubtedly die!"

"Kill them all! Kill everyone who participated in the escape and refine them into blood beads!"

The Aether Fortress Master revealed a bloodthirsty, morbid, and evil smile. With a single command, the numerous members of the Execution Squad and Apprehension Squad simultaneously raised their butcher knives against the fleeing Cultivators... "What..."

The Master of the Hundred Treasures Hall's face froze, looking at the group of Cultivators in the sky in disbelief.

"Sister!"

With a whoosh, the figure of the Master of the Corpse Dismemberment Hall landed nearby, her expression filled with urgency.

"As things stand, you and I must immediately join forces to break through one point of the Formation."

"Break the Formation quickly!"

"Alright, I never want to fall into his hands again!"

The Master of the Hundred Treasures Hall gave Tang Heng a look. Understanding the signal, he quickly led Yao Yian in a retreat.

Then, the two women rose on their swords, each taking out a Magical Artifact and pouring spiritual energy into them, violently striking at the Formation in an attempt to break it quickly.

Boom... Boom...

Two dull sounds rang out, and the entire Formation visibly shook.

But would Daoist Ji Yin just stand by and watch them break the Formation?

"The seven of you, go and capture the two of them."

"As you command!"

Behind him, seven followers with overwhelming Evil Qi immediately charged out, the cultivation of each one surprisingly at the Spirit Manifestation Realm Middle Stage.

Next, he glanced at the managers beside him who had not participated in the rebellion.

Daoist Ji Yin said indifferently, "This Fortress Master gives you fifteen minutes to deal with all those who fled."

Those managers immediately bowed and nodded repeatedly, "We will certainly not fail the Fortress Master's trust!"

"By the Fortress Master's command! Annihilate the rebels!"

"Kill!"

Those managers led their subordinates, flying down from the sky on their swords, also charging toward the Cultivators who had escaped the Coral Fortress.

Seeing this, those Cultivators' expressions changed drastically, but there was no turning back now. Since it was death either way, they became even more heroic as they clashed in battle.

But before long, these people were being slaughtered into a rout.

"Where are the people? Where did Zhao Dongming and the others go?"

"After coming out, they used the excuse of looking for someone and went south!"

"What! It's over, we've been used as pawns."

"Hahaha! Traitors, do you see? This is the consequence of betraying our Fortress Master!"

A certain manager laughed loudly, continuously cutting down Cultivators with his blade.

"Damn it!" one of the female managers from the Warm Fragrance Hall cursed angrily. "You will pay the price!"

"Hehe, whether I pay a price is yet to be known, but as for you..."

He gave a cold laugh, raising his large blade and hacking down heavily at that female manager from the Warm Fragrance Hall... The battle in the sky and on the ground was a one-sided massacre; blood flowed like a river, and the shouts of killing shook the heavens.

In a short while, even the Master of the Hundred Treasures Hall and the Master of the Corpse Dismemberment Hall were captured.

Daoist Ji Yin landed on the ground with his followers; the area was covered in severed limbs and broken bodies.

"Bitch!"

On Daoist Ji Yin's face, which usually seemed forever indifferent, there was finally a hint of irritation mixed with a touch of tenderness.

"I never expected that it was actually you who instigated this matter."

"Do you know how much this Fortress Master's heart aches!"

The smile on Daoist Ji Yin's face vanished, instantly becoming incomparably hideous.

"Do you remember? Whatever you wanted, this Fortress Master gave to you?!"

"For you, this Fortress Master charged alone into the Purple Gold Evil Sect and forcibly snatched their sect-protecting treasure, the Blazing Sun Mirror, to give to you."

"For you, this Fortress Master did not hesitate to discard his dignity to beg the Rotten Blade to bring you many items from your home in the Snow Region Northern Frontier."

"This Fortress Master has never harmed even a hair on your head!"

"Why?! Why?! You two bitches!..."

Daoist Ji Yin was so angry he was fuming, raising a palm high.

With one slap to the side, in just an instant, the Master of the Corpse Dismemberment Hall was struck into a cloud of blood mist.

"Did you think I really couldn't bear to kill you?!"

Then, Daoist Ji Yin violently raised his palm again... However, in the end, he still couldn't bring himself to let this palm fall, leaving it suspended in mid-air.

Daoist Ji Yin saw the Master of the Hundred Treasures Hall lift her proud head to look at him, her two beautiful and bright eyes showing not the slightest hint of fear.

"You! You! You!"

Daoist Ji Yin took a small step back, and his raised palm was withdrawn.

However, in the next moment, the irritation and tenderness in his eyes completely vanished, replaced by a hideous smile.

"Tell me, if I catch that boy named Tang Heng and torture him properly."

"Would you experience how I feel?"

"Jiejiejie, fun, this is too much fun."

"Go to the Registration Hall and get his aura jade tablet. You all, for me, bring him before me immediately!"

"Better be quick; right now, I have very little patience!"

"Yes!!!"

The many followers around Daoist Ji Yin had never seen him in such a state.

In their hearts, they were a thousand times more terrified than ever before.

Not daring to delay, they all immediately flew out on their swords and began searching the entire Coral Fortress for that fellow named Tang Heng.

Meanwhile, at the west side of the Coral Fortress.

Tang Heng and Yao Yian had already reached the very edge of the Formation.

"Is the battle over?"

The two had used the key to unlock the collars on their necks. Not long after they ran here, they suddenly sensed that the battle in the sky and on the ground had stopped.

An ominous feeling welled up in his heart, but he only hesitated for a split second before controlling Yao Yian to approach the Formation.

"Devour this Formation for me!!!"

The command came through the Control Talisman. Yao Yian was somewhat puzzled, thinking to himself, can this work?

Yao Yian approached the Formation's light curtain and then activated the twin star mirror.

A red light emitted from his palm. When the red light touched the Formation, it immediately made a "kaka kaka" sound.

After a few crisp sounds, a one-foot-wide passage suddenly appeared on the Formation's light curtain.

It actually worked?

"It actually worked?"

"The information really is reliable!"

Seeing this, Tang Heng was immediately overjoyed.

The two of them squeezed out through the passage. After getting out, they chose to flee frantically by land, wishing they had two more legs.

Their figures constantly shuttled through the terrain; neither of them wanted to be caught and brought back into the Coral Fortress.

"Oh? You didn't find him?"

Daoist Ji Yin made a grasping motion with his hand, and a huge, withered ghost claw instantly extended from behind his back with a puchi sound.

The ghost claw grabbed the follower at the Spirit Manifestation Realm Early Stage who had come to report, gradually tightening its grip until the person died with blood flowing from their seven orifices.

"Jiejiejie, I didn't expect this boy named Tang Heng could really hide."

"I like it, I like it so much. Keep searching for me!"

"I want him found, alive or dead!"

"Yes!"

However, after a careful search.

They only found traces of the Formation being forcibly broken at five corners on the west side of the Coral Fortress and also on the south side. On the east side, they also discovered three crudely arranged small random teleportation Formations.

On the east side, there seemed to have been internal strife, as there were two charred corpses of Cultivators.

The damage to the south side of the Formation was the most severe, with a gap as large as ten feet.

According to the casualty count and the information recorded in the passage tokens, at least five hundred Cultivators had escaped from the Aether Coral Fortress this time.

The vast majority of them had escaped through the gap in the southern Formation.

"Issue an arrest warrant immediately!"

"At the same time, the Execution Squad is to set out and accompany this Fortress Master to capture the traitors!"

"Especially that boy named Tang Heng!"

"Remember, it's best to catch him alive for me!"
