Chapter 315: A long night...
Shi Yue scoffed at this, 'Losing the will to fight just for this, what a waste of a sect master.' She thought, but there was nothing she could do.
This person was important to her plans.
"Help me get that spirit herb over there, give me as many as you have." Shi Yue spoke as she pointed to the spiritual herb Tang Yin had asked her for.
She didn't know how to harvest it, so she originally planned to take the whole piece of land with the herb. But, since this guy is here, he must know.
This guy said nothing and just nodded obediently.
Although this spirit herb was a great treasure for them, the truth is that it was more important for the ancestor, and he is already dead, what good is it now?
Even if it is a great treasure, it would now belong to this beautiful but dangerous woman.
The sect master did as he was told and soon returned to hand it over to Shi Yue. They had two of these spiritual herbs, so it was a good profit.
After that, Shi Yue asked him for information about various things in the sect and decided to allow him to be the sect master of this sect.
It is a great power that she will be able to use in the future, even though she eliminated most of the sect's power, she didn't mind. She would use them when the time came.
So, she gave him several instructions to follow faithfully, and after a while, Shi Yue disappeared from that place in conjunction with the domain of eternal night.
A few seconds later, she appeared on a mountain near the sect and spat out a large amount of blood while falling lightly on the ground.
'Hehe, I'm already in such a pitiful state...' She thought as she brought a hand to her chest.
She could not stay long in that place because she could no longer endure the domain of the eternal night and her state, so she had to get out of there quickly.
Her hair had returned to its original white, and her eyes were purple, but her countenance was darkened by the exhaustion that suddenly hit her.
'It's unfortunate that I can't even do something so simple anymore...' She thought while breathing heavily.
With much difficulty, she got up and disappeared a few more times until she reached a place she considered safe.
There, she leaned against a rock that was next to a cave and looked up at the night sky while breathing heavily and panting repeatedly.
'The days are coming, eh...' She thought and then smiled a little.
'There is nothing I can do, who sent me to look for a disciple? I must make him able to mature and with this, I already eliminate most of the problems he will be able to face in this place... The rest will depend on you, Tang Yin. I have already eliminated those who can hide from you and track you down.' Shi Yue thought with a satisfied smile on her face.
Her eyes slowly closed until they were completely shut, causing the whole place to be silent again... Not even the beasts could be heard in this place. There were only the stars and the moon to witness the moment.
...
Tang Yin returned to the sect quickly, as he did not want to waste any more time.
As soon as he returned to his courtyard, he entered the herb hall and made sure everything was going smoothly.
The spiritual herbs were growing just as he wanted them to, so it brought a smile to his face.
He was pleased to see this, so he went out into the yard to look at the moon, as he did almost every night he was home.
There he spent a few minutes looking at the moon until he suddenly frowned.
'What happened?' He thought as he looked down.
For some reason, he felt a small discomfort in his heart at that moment, but then he looked at his surroundings doubtfully.
'Is anyone there?' He thought, and just at that moment, he felt someone attacking him from behind.
Tang Yin simply stepped aside and sent a strong blow towards this person, but his blow was also quickly avoided.
Even so, this person did not stop attacking.
Immediately, this man lunged at him, swinging a small dagger towards Tang Yin's neck.
Tang Yin frowned. The person was quite strong, but, 'How the hell did he get in without activating the mechanisms?' Tang Yin thought doubtfully and moved one of the spiritual arrays in the courtyard to attack this person.
However, the spiritual array didn't activate, which made Tang Yin had to avoid the blow by jumping to the side.
"An elder, huh..." Tang Yin said with a frown and then realized who he was.
Only one elder had the token that could prevent spiritual arrays from attacking him, but among the elders, who wanted him dead?
"So, you're that Hao Qing, huh." Tang Yin said mockingly, causing the man in front of him to frown.
"You know a lot of things." Said the man at that moment, and Tang Yin shrugged his shoulders.
"Well, I went to bring you your son's head recently, did you like the gift? It was made with all the love." Tang Yin said with a smile, causing the man in front of him, who was indeed Hao Qing, to be surprised.
Hatred came to him at that moment, "So it was you, you little scum!" he shouted hysterically and didn't even try to hide anymore.
He immediately summoned his spirit weapon and leaped forward quickly, ready to cut Tang Yin in half.
He was here to kill this guy and get rid of him once and for all, that would allow him to go find his son's killer, but if they were both the same, wouldn't it make everything easier for him? he thought.
So, his move was instantaneous, ready to assassinate Tang Yin with a single blow.
Tang Yin sighed a little. He didn't want to draw attention to himself right now because he wanted to surprise his master and the higher-ups in the sect.
Therefore, he decided to do it quickly.
"You wanted it." Tang Yin said with a smile as he moved his arm back slightly.
Just at that moment, the elder arrived in front of him, ready to strike him a blow, but...
He felt an immense spiritual pressure coming from Tang Yin's body at that moment, which made him pause for a few seconds.
Just in those few seconds, a huge heavenly hammer appeared in Tang Yin's hand and he swung it forcefully towards where this person was while using his left leg to propel himself a little.
"Destruction." Tang Yin said staring at him, and that was the moment when the heavenly hammer slammed hard against the elder's upper body.
He was taken completely by surprise when he saw the immense power wielded by Tang Yin, so he was unable to defend himself in time...
*BOOOM*
A small bloody explosion occurred at that moment as the hammer struck this elder's body, totally shattering it.
Blood splattered the surroundings and Tang Yin's entire body.
'Well, he wasn't that powerful this elder. And so he wanted to kill me, how stupid.' Tang Yin thought with a slight sigh, but just then, he remembered something, so he looked around and checked that no one was there.
Then, he quickly created a spiritual array with this person's blood. This blood glowed with a slightly dark color activating the spiritual array, which soon turned into a vessel.
'Soul attraction.' Tang Yin thought at that moment, and the spiritual array began to absorb 'something' from all over the place.
Soon, a small 'fire' was in there, slowly burning all around.
