Chapter 94 Yun Xi's Repayment of Kindness
The first to rush out was a disciple of the White Cloud Sect, and then, one after another, disciples burst out.
There were those from the White Cloud Sect, Cold Winter Valley, Ten Thousand Flowers Sect, and also some Loose Cultivators.
However, there were conspicuously no disciples from the Heavenly Snake Sect or the Blood Spirit Sect.
This caused Mie Yue and Xue Luo to furrow their brows involuntarily.
Those disciples who rushed out all wore expressions of relief at having survived a catastrophe, and once they were out, they immediately looked towards the exit.
Soon after, Yun Xi and Han Yu also made their way out, both looking somewhat pale and also focusing their gaze on the exit.
A few breaths later, Lu Yi walked out from the exit.
All the disciples present breathed a sigh of relief, then burst into cheers.
"Lu Yi has come out!"
"That's great! Thanks to Lu Yi, otherwise, we would not have made it!"
The mountainous cheers puzzled everyone else, leaving them bemused, not understanding what had happened.
A nearby Loose Cultivator looked completely lost.
"What's going on? Isn't Lu Yi that Immortal Seed from the White Cloud Sect? Why are everyone so happy when he comes out?"
"I have no idea? I get why the disciples from the White Cloud Sect are happy, but why are those from Ten Thousand Flowers Sect and Cold Winter Valley too? And those few Loose Cultivators, are they possessed?"
"Right, why haven't we seen any disciples from the Heavenly Snake Sect and Blood Spirit Sect?"
"..."
The crowd whispered among themselves, buzzing with myriad speculations.
Elder Chuyun saw Lu Yi come out, relaxed a bit, and showed a slight smile. He glanced at the icy-faced Mie Yue and Xue Luo and sneered, "It seems your disciples couldn't handle the Immortal Seed of my White Cloud Sect."
Mie Yue and Xue Luo's expressions darkened, and they didn't reply but continued to watch the exit.
Elder Chuyun sneered once more and greeted Lu Yi with a smile, saying, "Good boy, it's good that you are out. Nothing untoward happened, right?"
Lu Yi smiled slightly, "There were some ripples, but I made it out in the end."
Lin Xiaoxiao spoke up, "Elder Chuyun, there was a strange occurrence in the East Forest Ruins! Thanks to Junior Brother Lu, we were able to escape with our lives, otherwise, we might have all perished in there!"
"A strange occurrence?" Elder Chuyun was taken aback, his brows furrowed as he looked at them seriously, "What kind of strange occurrence?"
The East Forest Ruins are critical for the Five Sects as it is a precious site where prodigies are cultivated, containing many treasures that help the disciples of the Five Sects become stronger.
If something untoward had happened in the East Forest Ruins, it would be a significant loss for the Five Sects.
"We saw members of the Demon Clan in the East Forest Ruins!"
"It was the successor of the Nine-tailed Demon Fox clan, a descendant of the Nine-tailed Demon Emperor, who obtained the legacy of the Ancient Demon Emperor within the ruins!"
"The exotic beasts within the ruins went berserk, and if it were not for Junior Brother Lu, we might have already died!"
One after another, the White Cloud Sect disciples spoke up, recounting the events that transpired inside the ruins.
This caused Elder Chuyun's face to shift rapidly, becoming quite unsightly.
"The Northern Territory's descendant of the Nine-tailed Demon Fox clan entered the East Forest Ruins? That the ruins were once a battlefield of the legendary Nine-tailed Demon Emperor?!"
Elder Chuyun had never imagined that an ancient site preserved by the Five Sects for thousands of years had such origins.
The Nine-tailed Demon Fox clan's strength was formidable, equivalent to the sanctity of the Immortal Sect Holy Land of the Human Clan; far beyond what the Five Sects could compare to. If a powerful demon from that clan arrived in Qingzhou, it might provoke a significant upheaval.
Fortunately, this region was Human Clan territory; even though the Nine-tailed Demon Fox clan was robust, they would not dare to openly create chaos in Human Clan territory.
Disciples from other sects also started reporting to their Supreme Elders, Dong Yu and Du Qin likewise had their expressions shift continuously, looking quite grim.
What worried them most was whether, after this strange occurrence, they could still enter the East Forest Ruins and obtain opportunities.
If they were unable to enter, the loss would be tremendously severe.
Moreover, what shocked them was that Lu Yi, single-handedly, had killed the Qingzhou prodigies, Xue Tianhen and Qin Luo, and he did so effortlessly, crushing them.

Even, according to their description, it was Lu Yi alone who led them through the Mutant Beast Tide, allowing everyone to survive.
Both Han Yu and Yun Xi believed they were far inferior to Lu Yi.
This revelation sent shockwaves through the hearts of the two Divinity Transformation cultivators.
As Supreme Elders of their sects, they certainly knew the talent and strength of their sect's prodigies, who were very likely to break through to the Divinity Transformation Realm, and even reaching the Cave Void Realm was not beyond hope.
Even so, they considered themselves far inferior to Lu Yi?
"The Immortal Seed truly lives up to its name," Du Qin murmured, glancing towards where Lu Yi was.
Just then, two terrifying presences surged forth, pressing down on Lu Yi.
"You brat, such ruthless methods, to dare and kill our Blood Spirit Sect Young Master!"
"So young yet so vicious, you killed two of our sects' prodigal sons. Today you will pay with your life!"
Mie Yue and Xue Luo's eyes emitted an undisguised murderous intent, glaring at Lu Yi with faces full of icy fury.
It was known that Xue Tianhen and Qin Luo were rare geniuses seen only once in hundreds of years in their sects, and the time and effort invested in them were substantial. Now both men were dead, and all the sect's investment had been in vain.
What's more, the ones who had perished in the ruins were the future core strength of their sects, geniuses of the Foundation Establishment Realm. The losses incurred today were so considerable that it could cause the sects to bleed.
"Hmph! You two old fools, thousands of years old, yet targeting a child? Acting as if I'm not here?" Elder Chuyun's face turned icy as he stepped in front of Lu Yi, blocking the pressure.
