Chapter 584
Old Sun furrowed his brow slightly and said, “It’s better not to spread baseless rumors.”
“No matter what, they were brave warriors who sacrificed their lives honorably for the Immortal Alliance. How could the higher-ups allow despicable individuals to defile their corpses?”
The lazy cultivator immediately showed some discontent. “How is it baseless? I saw it with my own eyes!”
“That Zhang Debiao kid, using his appointment from the Immortal Alliance, blatantly led a group to gather the corpses. Storage rings, usable magical treasures—weren’t they quietly taken away by them?”
“I even heard that residual golden cores and fragments of cave heaven within the corpses were dug out by these people!”
“You’ve been on the battlefield yourself. You know how brutal the battle in Tianling Prefecture was. Those bodies were almost all incomplete and disfigured. How else could they be collected? They were all burned to ashes, leaving only a bit of powder as proof. Who would notice?”
“As the saying goes, ‘If the people don’t speak up, the officials won’t act.’ Ordinary cultivators are mostly loners. If they die, they die. Who would really care…”
The lazy cultivator rambled on incessantly, with no regard for his words, while Old Sun’s face gradually turned somber.
Suddenly, the lazy cultivator felt a chill rise behind him. Seeing the expression on Old Sun’s face, he inexplicably shuddered and instinctively shut his mouth.
