Chapter 1266

It must be the reinforcements spoken of by the Butterfly Moon Elder! She told us that in these few days, the Dao Lord's reinforcements will descend!

Upon hearing this, many elders and disciples of the Hehuan Sect felt somewhat excited and delighted.

"Dao Lord? Do they know where the Dao Lord is?"

"The Dao Lord has been gone for many years; our Hehuan Sect, amidst the starry sky, faces opposition everywhere, strong enemies abound—this is all too hard!"

"No wonder they appeared here. Hahaha! Our Yingzhao Star is saved!"

Everyone rekindled their fighting spirit and launched a frenzied counterattack against the Changsheng Sect.

The faces of the Changsheng Sect members turned very grim.

This suddenly appearing army, although each individual looked unimpressive, even with a few old scallions among them, their cultivation was not shabby, and the Spiritual Weapons in their hands were of extremely high grade.

What the heck is this strange army?

Moreover, with the Hehuan Sect's pincer attack, they certainly are no match.

"Elder Xu Feng, what should we do now?"

Everyone looked toward the gray-robed middle-aged man leading them, their faces filled with panic.

The gray-robed middle-aged man made a swift decision, uttering a single word, "Retreat!"

Everyone promptly began a frantic retreat, leaping toward the cloud vessels.

Seeing this, Chen Zhangsheng said to the many puppets, "Don't let them escape; they've got good stuff on them."

Upon hearing that, the many puppets' eyes lit up.

They had followed Chen Zhangsheng in the Bronze Ancient Hall to dig for treasure for a long time, already becoming little "money-mad" individuals who loved digging for treasure, especially supreme treasures.

Naturally, all these supreme treasures were handed over to Chen Zhangsheng's main body.

They do not possess the treasures; they are merely transporters of treasure, enjoying the moment of unearthing them.

Instantly, each puppet raised hammers, shovels, and large frames and charged over at extreme speed.

A pockmarked old hag approached a middle-aged man, directly swung her old fist, punching through his head with one blow, then began to search his body, exclaiming, "Yo, a storage ring, yo, so many elixirs, we've struck it rich..."

Beside her, a stooped old man thrust his shovel forward, directly cleaving the first half-step Dao Lord cultivator of the Changsheng Sect in half, blood spraying everywhere!

Then he began expertly looting the corpses, storing all the found talismans and Spiritual Weapons in his pack.

"Don't you run!"

A dwarf puppet, wielding a massive iron hammer, smashed directly onto the heel of a fleeing man.

"Pfft!"

His calf exploded outright, and he kept screaming in agony.

The dwarf struck another hammer blow, then took all the treasures from his body, sending him off to the west with one hammer.

"Hahaha!"

Everywhere were the excited cheers of the puppets.

They absolutely loved this process of reaping spoils.

Ji Fuyao lightly patted her jade forehead with her jade hand, laughing and crying at once.

The Changsheng Sect members wore faces of utter disbelief, "What the heck kind of people are these?"

Such a bizarre battle, unheard of!

This troop was utterly like bandits, their eyes fixed solely on the treasures on their bodies.

Yet they simply could not be beaten.

Many elders had already fled to the cloud vessels.

But the many puppets followed in succession, leaping onto the cloud vessels and smashing them wildly with hammers and shovels, producing a crackling sound, while brilliant Divine Light continually splashed down.

In just a few breaths, several cloud vessels were directly dismantled by Chen Zhangsheng's puppet army into piece after piece.

"This piece is mine!"

"Then that piece is mine!"

The many puppets claimed those cloud vessel fragments as their own, constantly quarreling over them.

The remaining Changsheng Sect elders stared blankly at everything around them, then turned their last hope to Elder Xu Feng, "Elder Xu Feng, what should we do? Where did this bunch of monsters come from?"

Everyone now guarded that huge stone carving.

"Protect the stone carving of Gu Yue Laozi!"

Elder Xu Feng roared loudly.

Even at this point, they still regarded that stone carving as extremely important.

Because within the Changsheng Sect, Gu Yue Laozi holds an absolutely unshakable position.

Seeing his stone carving is like seeing his true self!

The obsession with "Longevity" engraved in their hearts, and the stone carving is the guide on their path to longevity!

But soon, the many puppets rushed over, their fighting involving no techniques, purely brute force as they wildly chiseled.

After all, in their eyes, these people were nothing but walking little treasuries!

"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!"

The remaining Changsheng Sect elders also could not withstand, collapsing one after another and dying.

In the end, only Elder Xu Feng remained, desperately guarding in front of the stone carving, then he was killed by a shovel blow.

Blood sprayed everywhere!

Xu Feng died with eyes unclosed, tightly clutching the stone carving.

Soon, the many puppets cleaned the battlefield; aside from corpses, they took almost everything, even garments of slightly higher grade, and then they cheered as they returned to Chen Zhangsheng's presence.

"All right, go back."

Chen Zhangsheng flicked his sleeve, and the many puppets turned into streaks of Divine Light, vanishing instantly on the spot.

Seeing this scene, the Hehuan Sect members were dumbstruck like wooden chickens.

They came in haste, went in haste!

A moment of silence.

The woman called Elder Xiao Yue, who had been cleaning, finally came to her senses from her daze, and brought several elders over to Ji Fuyao and Chen Zhangsheng.

Elder Xiao Yue bowed respectfully, "Thank you, fellow Daoists! I don't know where you come from, but you must be the reinforcements spoken of by Old Ancestor Butterfly Moon."

Their faces showed a hint of surprise and joy.

Ji Fuyao smiled charmingly, "We come from beyond this star field."

Elder Xiao Yue naturally took hold of Ji Fuyao's jade arm, smiling as she asked, "You can call me Xiao Yue. How should I address you?"

"I am Ji Fuyao, and this is my junior fellow disciple Chen Zhangsheng." Ji Fuyao introduced, "We have indeed come here at the invitation of Butterfly Moon."

Chen Zhangsheng nodded slightly.

Xiao Yue gave a lively smile, "Oh, right. Old Ancestor Butterfly Moon said you've seen the Dao Master. Is that true?"

Chen Zhangsheng asked, "What is the Dao Master?"

Xiao Yue pursed her lips, "It's Lord Lu Xuan!"

Ji Fuyao laughed, "I am Lu Xuan's eldest disciple, and this is my third junior fellow disciple."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Yue and the others exclaimed in surprise.

"Good heavens!"

"How could this happen?"

"Lord Dao Master said he wouldn't take disciples—how did he suddenly take on many disciples?"

Ji Fuyao smiled without speaking.

Xiao Yue suddenly had many questions, she took hold of Ji Fuyao's jade arm and flew toward the stars, saying, "This is Ying Zhao Star, the former secluded cultivation ground of Old Ancestor Butterfly Moon; the Lord Dao Master also stayed here. However, later the Lord Dao Master said he had to attend to an important matter and never returned."

"Ying Zhao Star." Ji Fuyao gazed at the twinkling faintly lit star, like the glow of fireflies, "Indeed the star lives up to its name."

Soon.

Xiao Yue brought Ji Fuyao and Chen Zhangsheng down to a mountain range.

Here the verdant trees are lush and undulating, the stellar power is abundant, and everywhere is a gentle Daoist power.

At the summit stands a huge splendid palace, its upper layers flowing with light and colors, magnificently beautiful.

Upon entering the hall, Xiao Yue's eyes slightly moistened, she asked cautiously, "How has the Lord Dao Master been these years?"
