C2920 Anger
Yun Xiao's disappearance immediately made Elder Silverfrost recall his purpose for coming here. At the same time, it also made him very angry. They had put in so much effort, but they had actually given it to someone else for free.
Furthermore, they had even lost an elder who thought he was a Spirit Gathering Stage and a Regulator.
This result was hard for Elder Silverfrost to accept. He could ignore the life and death of Elder Lu, but a Divine Dragon like the Candle Dragon, and a surviving Divine Dragon, had been snatched away by someone else. This was unacceptable to him.
Immediately, Elder Silverfrost couldn't hold it any longer. He cursed at Elder Lu, "You useless piece of trash! What do you think you're going to do? Not only did you give up your life here, even the Divine Dragon was snatched away by someone else..."
Unfortunately, Elder Lu couldn't understand what he was cursing. He had been completely assimilated by the Ruin Returning Power. His eyes were empty, and his body was emitting an ominous aura.
However, even if he could hear it, he might not have any other reaction. Elder Lu had already abandoned his face.
Elder Silverfrost cursed for a long time. She felt as if she was facing a piece of wood, so she did not continue. She only did this to vent her dissatisfaction.
She also knew that even if it was him, he might not be any better than Elder Lu. If the two of them attacked at the same time, the result might be different.
However, in the face of an existence like the Divine Dragon, it was already considered good if they did not fight, so how could they join forces?
Elder Silverfrost was just angry. They had spent so much effort, but in the end, the other people had taken away the fruits of their labor. However, he had gained nothing, and even suffered heavy losses. This made him feel extremely unhappy.
Elder Silverfrost vented all of his anger on Elder Lu. His attacks became more and more ruthless, and soon, Elder Lu's body was shattered into pieces.
If it wasn't for the fact that Elder Lu's Ruin Returning Power was out of control, Elder Silverfrost would have smashed Elder Lu into pieces.
But even so, Elder Silverfrost didn't hold back at all. Soon, only Elder Lu's bare body was left. His four limbs had been broken.
However, he still didn't show any other expression. His eyes were staring blankly ahead, and he didn't even look at Elder Silverfrost.
"Even the origin has been completely assimilated. It looks like you are really hopeless. Then don't blame this old man for being ruthless." Elder Silverfrost smiled sinisterly. It was rare for her to have such an opportunity to kill Elder Lu in broad daylight. Of course, he didn't want to miss it.
After reaching the Spirit Gathering Stage, ordinary injuries wouldn't be enough to kill them, especially after breaking free from the Five Despairs of Celestials. They had already broken through the limitations of the human race, and had become extraordinary existences.
Even if there was only one head left, as long as their source wasn't destroyed, they wouldn't die.
Elder Lu's source had been invaded by the Ruin Returning Power, which was why he had become like this. Even if he could save Elder Lu, he would only be able to obtain a puppet that was enslaved by the Ruin Returning.
It could be said that from the moment he was assimilated by the Ruin Returning, he could basically sentence Elder Lu to death.
The reason why Spirit Gathering Stage warriors had different levels of strength compared to Spirit Guiding Stage warriors was because of the existence of the origin. This origin relied on the divine abilities that they had comprehended.
Unfortunately, Elder Lu's divine ability was obviously not strong enough to defend against the invasion of the Ruin Returning. If it was Evil Spirit Hall Master, a Spirit Gathering Stage warrior who cultivated the Great Dao Divine Ability, it might be a different situation.
Without any hesitation, the Spirit Power in Elder Silverfrost's body quickly gathered, intending to destroy Elder Lu's body and origin along with his body.
After all, he didn't want the Ruin Returning Power to escape from his body. This was a power that was even more terrifying than the baleful Qi.
Ji Faang and the others who were watching from afar shifted their gazes away. They didn't want to continue watching. Their losses this time could be said to be disastrous.
Especially Ji Faang. He originally had Elder Lu as his backer, but now, he was the only one left. Even the people of Hidden Sect didn't want to trust him anymore.
At this moment, Ji Faang's eyes suddenly fell on Faang Yang. Although Faang Yang was unconscious, his Qi didn't weaken. Instead, he seemed to have realized something.
"He has broken through to the Spirit Gathering Stage? How could this be? Not only does Mortal Realm only allow two mortals to break through, but these two people must also be Regulator?"
Not only Ji Faang, even Chiang Lieh had also noticed this point. However, Chiang Lieh was different from what he had expected.
He didn't want to care about how Faang Yang broke through. He only knew that after Faang Yang broke through, he had become an existence on the same level as them. He couldn't treat Faang Yang like a mortal anymore.
"Elder Lu is already in such a state. I estimate that it will be very difficult for him to recover. As for me, I still have Elder Silverfrost behind me. This time, I will snatch her away. We have to take Faang Yang back, too. Otherwise... I don't know how Lord Lyi will blame me."
Elder Silverfrost was furious that the Candle Dragon wasn't subdued this time. It could be seen from the way he dealt with Elder Lu. Chiang Lieh even felt that... If he didn't make some contributions, he might not be able to return to Upper Realm safely.1
Although he was the Son of God of the Limin Bloodline, in front of an elder like Yin Shuang... Furthermore, the competition within Limin Bloodline wasn't small either. It was even more intense than Ji Faang and the Five-direction God Bloodline.
Chiang Lieh was also a ruthless man who was able to survive Evil Spirit Hall Master's direct confrontation. Moreover, his performance was much better than Ji Faang's. His disposition and strength were better than Ji Faang in every aspect.
All of this was because of their internal competition. To be able to stand out from such intense competition, Chiang Lieh was obviously not an easy person to deal with.
If it wasn't for the Nether Essence Spirit, they might have been able to get rid of the Evil Spirit Hall with ease. They wouldn't have caused so many troubles in the future.
It was a pity that none of them had thought that the Nether Essence Spirit would appear. That was why they were caught off guard and lost their original standards.
Elder Lu's Qi had completely dissipated, along with his origin. It was also destroyed by Elder Silverfrost, even though his origin contained a wisp of the Ruin Returning Power. However, this Ruin Returning Power did not belong to him. It came from the Nether Essence Spirit.
After breaking away from the Nether Essence Spirit, this Ruin Returning Power even wanted to return to the Sinkhole. In the end, because of Evil Spirit Hall Master, it lost its connection with the Ruin Returning and no longer posed any threat.
Elder Silverfrost was at least a Spirit Gathering Stage. It was naturally no problem for her to deal with a wisp of the Ruin Returning Power that had left the Ruin Returning. Under his furious strike, Elder Lu's figure completely disappeared from everyone's sight.
Ji Faang clenched his fists tightly, watching this scene with all his might. This wasn't the first time he felt so powerless. Ever since he was sent to Mortal Realm, it was as if everything had gone out of his control. For a moment, he couldn't help but feel somewhat depressed.
But soon, he had adjusted his state of mind. At least, he was still alive, and that was enough.
