Xu Xiao Liu’s face lit up with joy; these past few months, he had really suffered a great deal.
Having received the chairman’s praise was like seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.
Sima Huiniang followed closely behind Luo Chen, reporting on the current situation.
“The overall battle situation is under control with the arrival of reinforcements.”
“But with the Flame Alliance Elder’s retreat and Zheng Xian being killed by you, those affiliated cultivators, leaderless as they are, all want to flee.”
“Chairman, what do you think we should…”
Luo Chen stopped in his tracks, a fierce look flashing across his face.
“Kill!”
“Chase them down!”
“Don’t let a single one escape!”
“Even if they flee back to their homes, annihilate their entire families, raze their sects to the ground!”
As he spoke, Spirit Qi Wings emerged behind him, and he suddenly shot forward.
Like an arrow released from its bow, he plunged into the devastated battlefield.
Sima Huiniang stood frozen in place.
She had never seen Luo Chen so overtaken by rage.
Even when he had displayed similar behavior in the past, it was always a measured response following a calculation of benefits.
Now, however, he was recklessly driven by a desire to kill.
In the back of her mind, she thought about the previous battle.
Was it the sense of helplessness brought on by that Golden Core Ascendant Master from the Flame Alliance?
Or was it the late arrival of the Jueqing Fairy that displeased him?
The answer to the question could not be obtained, as the person concerned was no longer present.
She could only sigh softly, instruct Xu Xiao Liu to take care of Min Longyu, and then stepped onto the battlefield.
Upon reaching the battlefield,
The sight that met the woman’s eyes was a one-sided massacre.
Chu Kui, Wang Yuan, Luo Feng, Chen Xiuli, and The Great Elder Lianyun, five Great Cultivators, were spread out in all directions, reaping the fruits of victory.
There were also Kang Dongyue, Xing Zonghan, Li Yixian, Yue Chong, and Qiu Liang Yue, among others skilled practitioners, cooperating with the remnants of the Luo Tian Creed’s Foundation Establishment True Cultivators, moving amidst the chaos.
Among them, the most eye-catching was the incessant flashing of red light.
Screams of cultivators rose one after another.

With each scream, a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator fell.
Sima Huiniang frowned slightly and began to regroup the Luo Tian Creed cultivators while quickly accounting for the casualties.
This decisive battle began quickly and ended just as swiftly.
Especially after Luo Chen appeared for the first time, the tide of battle turned.
The emergence of that Golden Core Ascendant Master had even brought a momentary stillness to the battlefield.
What remained now were merely the aftershocks of the conflict.
But no matter how swiftly it concluded, the casualties were still alarming.
When Luo Chen, covered in the stench of blood, arrived before her,
Sima Huiniang announced the most straightforward and direct account of casualties.
“Regarding Foundation Establishment Cultivators, Bian Zhen, Su Xiaolin, and Gui Jiang have fallen in battle. Li Yingzhang is seriously injured, Xu Huanzhen is gravely wounded, his Second Order Plunder Feathered Hawk was destroyed, Murong Qinglian suffered a backlash from her magic item and lost a hand, Gu Caiyi’s Ghost General was dissipated, and Bai Meiling has not responded since entering the Soul Nurturing Banner. Both Duan Feng and Min Longyu are unconscious.”
As each name was called out, it represented a loss for the Luo Tian Creed.
The later in Foundation Establishment, the greater the casualties.
Luo Chen’s forehead throbbed with veins.
Zhou Yuanli approached, speaking softly, “Among the Qi Refinement Cultivators, hundreds are dead or injured. Qin Liangchen, Liu Qiang, Xiugu, Li Yingjun, Chi Junran, and Hao Tianye… have died in battle.”
There was no list of the injured.
Neither was there a list of lower-realm Qi Refinement Cultivators’ deaths.
Those mentioned were all Late Stage Qi Refinement Cultivators Luo Chen was somewhat familiar with.
After hearing all the names, Luo Chen closed his eyes.
His Spirit Consciousness spread out, and he saw Murong Qinglian painfully weeping over Qin Liangchen’s body, saw Li Yingzhang and Yuan Dongsheng piecing together a corpse on the ground, Zeng Yilong kneeling and gathering his mother’s remains, the blood-covered Xu Huanzhen desolately stroking the ruffled feathers of a young hawk…
In the distance, Feng Xia was administering elixirs and using her learned healing techniques to treat Duan Feng, cultivators from the Spirit Medicine Hall spontaneously gathered around Bian Zhen’s body, and the familiar Luo Tian Intelligence Net Cultivators silently took Su Xiaolin’s head back to Danxia Peak…
“How could this be? How could this be?”
The repeated questions seemed to be directed at others, yet also seemed like he was questioning himself.
It was expected that there would be casualties among the Foundation Establishment True Cultivators.
The moment he appeared, he was bound to attract the covetousness of the Golden Core of the Flame Alliance.
So from the beginning, he was prepared to quickly kill off a few significant Great Cultivators to secure the battle situation,
to create an advantageous situation for the Foundation Establishment True Cultivators on the side of the Luo Tian Creed.
And he did succeed, swiftly killing several Great Cultivators and grievously injuring two, including the Foundation Establishment Stage Finalization Zheng Xian!
In this process, it was possible that some of the friends he knew might die, but he had mentally braced for that.
Who in the world doesn’t die?
Even he, Luo Chen, after coming forward, was under the immense pressure of directly facing a Middle Stage Golden Core Cultivator and had been ready for a fight to the death.
But!
On the side of Qi Refinement Cultivators, the Luo Tian Creed held an absolute advantage.
Such casualties were unacceptable to him.
Zhou Yuanli sighed, “The enemy’s number of Foundation Establishment True Cultivators was simply too large. A slight dispersal by one or two could easily inflict great damage upon the Qi Refinement Cultivators. Qin Liangchen and Liu Qiang died trying to support me by jointly holding off an Early Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator. Yuan Dongsheng and his wife led the Agriculturist Hall Cultivators to assist Li Yingzhang, but they were hit by a Middle Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator Zheng Kejian, killing more than a dozen people, with Li Yingjun amongst the fallen. Xiugu died trying to protect her son from a Foundation Establishment Cultivator…”
“Chairman…”
Luo Chen raised his hand.
In a brief moment, he seemed to have accepted reality.
“Zhou Yuanli, lead people to clean up the battlefield.”
