Lin Bai frowned, his expression very grim.

"The identities of those four?"

Lin Bai felt they were definitely not simple, so he had to know who they were. Looking at them, they seemed to be targeting him as well.

"I don't know."

The youth shook his head. Looking at Lin Bai, he still wore an expression of hatred.

He truly couldn't understand why they had let this man live.

They had clearly made perfect preparations, but everything had been in vain.

"If you tell me now, perhaps I can spare your life."

"If you don't, then I'm not sure what I might do to you."

Lin Bai walked up to him, his eyes sharp.

However, the youth just turned his head away. "Senior Brother, hand him over to me."

"I'm good at questioning."

Seeing that Lin Bai had talked to him for so long without getting an answer, Wei Xiang'an volunteered.

"Are you sure you can do it?"

Lin Bai looked at Wei Xiang'an, somewhat skeptical.

"Rest assured, absolutely no problem."

Wei Xiang'an patted his chest. He couldn't guarantee other things, but he had plenty of experience with this, especially when it came to torturing people; he was quite an expert.

"Alright then, I'll leave it to you."

Lin Bai nodded.

Wei Xiang'an took the youth to the side.

"Sect Master, what are your plans for the future?"

"I see the sect has been mostly destroyed. Do you still have spirit stones to rebuild?"

After handing the youth to Wei Xiang'an, Lin Bai walked to the Sect Master and the Great Elder to ask.

He wanted to know if they had plans for what came next.

"Rest assured, we have our own plans."

"I have already sent some disciples to purchase materials; we will rebuild the sect."

"Although a large part of the sect was destroyed, some areas are still intact."

"So if we go back, we can still manage."

The Sect Master nodded.

"That's good. If you need anything, just send someone to the Beginningless Land to find me."

Lin Bai nodded, feeling relieved.

Now he was just waiting for Wang Wang Yuping to wake up. Since the matter here was basically resolved, he could return to the Beginningless Land.

"By the way, Sect Master, do you have any impression of the four God King realm people who harmed you before?"

"Do you know where they are from?"

Lin Bai raised an eyebrow, deciding to ask the Sect Master and the Great Elder.

He wanted to see if they had any information about them.

If they knew, it would save him a lot of trouble.

But what he got in return was the Sect Master and the Great Elder shaking their heads.

"We don't know. We have never heard of these people."

"However, looking at them, they seem like they belong to some middle-tier sect, perhaps one that is reclusive or doesn't often appear in the public eye."

"Otherwise, it would be impossible for us not to know."

The Sect Master added.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt those four people's identities were unusual.

"Alright, I understand."

"I'll look into this matter later."

Lin Bai nodded, feeling that this matter was likely not very simple.

So he planned to wait until Wang Wang Yuping woke up and return to the Beginningless Land to ask Feng Feng Yunzheng and the other Elders.

"Senior Brother, how is it? Have those people been dealt with?"

In the middle of the night, Wang Wang Yuping finally opened his eyes. Seeing Lin Bai, he hurriedly asked about the situation.

"You potato, next time, don't do such dangerous things again. If something happened to you, how would I explain it to Master?"

Seeing Wang Wang Yuping wake up, Lin Bai breathed a sigh of relief, but he stared at the other with some reproach.

"Hehe, Senior Brother, I... I'm fine, aren't I?"

"And Master told me to protect you."

Wang Wang Yuping scratched his head and said somewhat embarrassedly.

In any case, Lin Bai was fine, so he was relieved.

"Potato, you usually look so honest and reliable, I didn't expect you to be so useful at a critical moment."

Wei Xiang'an couldn't help but tease him as well.

"That's right, I'm not just a vase."

Wang Wang Yuping curled his lips proudly, and his appearance made Wei Xiang'an laugh.

"Wei Xiang'an, how is it? How did the questioning go?"

Hearing Wei Xiang'an's voice, Lin Bai looked toward him and asked about the situation.

"This kid's mouth is too hard, but how could it be harder than me?"

Wei Xiang'an looked indignant when mentioning the youth, but his expression softened a moment later.

"How is it? Did you get any useful information?"

Lin Bai stared at him curiously.

"No, he said it was his Senior Brother who found those people. As for what background they have, he doesn't know either."

"According to his recollection, he found his Senior Brother who was traveling outside and told him about his desire for revenge."

"So one day, his Senior Brother suddenly brought these four people to him, and these four indicated they were willing to help them, but they had one condition."

Wei Xiang'an quickly put away his previous demeanor and looked at Lin Bai seriously.

"It seems these people are quite good at hiding."

"But what was the condition they mentioned?"

Lin Bai raised an eyebrow. These people were indeed good at hiding their identities.

However, the fact that they could reach an agreement with the other side made Lin Bai curious about what the condition was.

"The other side said he didn't know either, because these people were always in contact with his Senior Brother. As for what his Senior Brother promised, he was completely in the dark."

Wei Xiang'an shook his head after listening to Lin Bai. In short, the other side knew nothing, except for the desire to seek revenge on Lin Bai and the others; he knew nothing else.

These four people were all found by the greasy man who had been killed.

"Why do I feel like this youth was the one being used?"

Lin Bai frowned. If he really wanted to take revenge on them, how could he not even know the identities of the people he hired?

This made Lin Bai feel curious about him.

However, to get the answer now, he had to find the three who had escaped.

But where those three went and who rescued them remained an unknown.

Lin Bai could be certain of one thing: the person who rescued them was extremely powerful; otherwise, they wouldn't have felt nothing at the time.

"I wonder if Master and the others know."

"After Wang Wang Yuping recovers, we will return to the Beginningless Land and ask Master to see if he knows anything."

Lin Bai nodded, not forcing the issue.

Even if he thought about it more now, they wouldn't get an answer, so he simply stopped thinking about it. At the very least, they wouldn't show up again for a while.
