"Why not finish him off?" Zong Rao's gaze swept over Yuan Yao and her five companions, "Leave the rest to us."
"Us?"
The next moment——
Hundreds of young disciples in the Carefree Sect's white robes hurried over.
"Carefree Sect, Martial Peak has arrived!"
"Carefree Sect, Heavenly Inquiry Peak has arrived!"

She fought three opponents alone and handled them with ease!
Carefree Sect disciples even surrounded the entire Xue Nu Chang!
The faces of the three Hall Officers turned extremely grim.
They had no choice but to place their hopes on their own Field Master, Hu Yan Cheng, but at this moment Hu Yan Cheng could no longer hold up!
A miserable, shrill cry came from Hu Yan Cheng.
The sword blade split him in half!
Boom!
The Field Master died!
Yuan Yao and her six companions were completely powerless; just as they were about to collapse, disciples from the Carefree Sect's Heavenly Learning Peak arrived in time, supported them, quickly bandaged their wounds, and administered treatment!
The evil cultivators had previously had their consciousness controlled by Yuan Yao; once they regained consciousness, they instantly realized how terrifying Yuan Yao was, and thus, upon seeing the Carefree Sect's large numbers of disciples arriving and the Field Master's death, they fled in panic to preserve their lives.
The three Hall Officers also realized the situation was lost; they had originally intended to sneak back into the dilapidated Xue Nu Chang to grab some valuables, but they were quickly intercepted by the Carefree Sect's disciples.
Among them, the leaders were Yao Linglong and Lin Xuechen, who had rushed back.
And the sect master's other two disciples: the senior disciple Wenren Jibai, and the junior disciple Li Weiying.
"Want to leave? Isn't it a bit too late?"
"You evil cultivators have committed countless atrocities, kidnapping and selling cultivators, using the lives of innocents to earn dirty spirit stones! Today, we shall enforce heavenly justice!"
"What do you know?!" the Third Hall Officer's face grim, "You who have good talent can become strong, but what about us with poor talent? How can we become strong? Only by taking shortcuts can we become strong, only then can we possess status, position, and power! It is you who are ignorant and foolish, you are merely fortunate!"
Yao Linglong said coldly, "This is not an excuse for you to slaughter innocent people at will!"
"Hahaha……," the Third Hall Officer laughed mockingly, his tone contemptuous: "In the cultivation world, the strong eat the weak; the strong are supreme! What reason can you yellow‑haired brats give me?! Immortal, you become a king; even in death there is no regret!"
"Stubborn and dull!" Lin Xuechen's face darkened.
"No need to waste words with them!"
Carefree Sect disciples swarmed the Three Great Hall Officers; their cultivation was far below that of the officers, but they prevailed by coordinating a sword formation together!
At this moment.
Yuan Yao, carried aside and having her wounds bandaged by disciples of Heavenly Study Peak, felt dizzy and light‑headed; she tried repeatedly to slip into a deep sleep, but bit her tongue and forced herself to stay awake.
Until everything is settled, she dared not fall asleep.
She feared some mishap might occur.
"Junior sister, you're badly injured," a senior sister from Heavenly Study Peak said anxiously; she had never seen the junior sister so frail, her pulse was almost imperceptible.
"I'm fine," Yuan Yao forced out a faint smile.
"Ow— ow— ow—," Cang Li cried as his wound was medicated, his teeth clenched and he kept howling.
Nearby, not far from Cang Li, Ying Wuji lifted his eyes slightly, seeming in good spirits, and said, "Stop screaming, you're like a wild boar."
Xue Jin: "Not 'like', he is a pig."
Song Yan: "…cough cough."
Cang Li wailed, "You have no humanity; my strength is so weak, during the fight you didn't protect me."
"Enough chatter," Xiao Lingwei said, "If we hadn't protected you, who knows where your head would have ended up."
Cang Li: "…"
Yuan Yao couldn't hold back her laugh.
After Yuan Yao and five others received simple bandages and treatment, they took the fourth‑grade Healing Spirit Pill that Cang Li had refined and quickly went to aid Yao Linglong and the others.
Together they slew the Three Great Hall Officers of Xue Nu Chang.
And Zong Ruo also dealt with the Three Great Guardians.
At this point, the Field Master of Xue Nu Chang, the Four Great Guardians, the Three Great Hall Officers, and a portion of elite dark guards and evil cultivators were eliminated.
The remaining evil cultivators fled or hid.
And Xue Nu Chang was seized by the Carefree Sect!
