Chapter 307: Grudge
Li Lang helplessly watched as the cultivators from a righteous sect executed the last of their captives. He shook his head at the wasted opportunity, but there wasn’t much he could do. He was currently a guest in their territory, and there was a limit to what he could demand.
When in Rome, do as Romans do. The rules of other forces weren’t something he could arbitrarily interfere with.
Mu Hanyue walked over once the executions were over. With a wave of her sleeve, the heads of the fallen vanished into her space ring. When she turned around, her face was filled with disgust at having to deal with the filth.
“Let’s go. These demonic cultivators have wasted enough of our time.”
The orthodox cultivators all nodded and began walking as if they had been waiting for far too long. Li Lang took a moment to give the headless remains one last look before following.
What a waste. I could’ve used them in my research on demonic techniques.
“Is there a problem?” The interim leader of the Radiant Wing Sect disciples called out upon noticing Li Lang wistfully sigh.
“Not exactly. I guess it’s just been a long day.”
“You can say that again. Come on, let’s put this place behind us.”
“Hmm, right.”
The interrogation of the captured foes didn’t last long, as they refused to say anything. It didn’t take long for them to piece together the clues. Their ambushers weren’t just some random force that appeared within the crypt at random. They were bona fide demonic deviators that preyed on orthodox cultivators on a regular basis. Their lack of ability for critical thinking was a dead giveaway.
Qi pilfering demonic techniques allowed them to absorb the cultivation of other humans, but afflicted their minds. Too much and they would become mindless animals, that only know how to react to sustenance, which in this case meant orthodox cultivators.
