The Demon with Holy Radiance

But if their relationship was deeper, he would have to question the stability of his own position as Pavilion Master.

"Elder Qi is right. They’re just a bunch of bald monks and a swarm of maggots. We don’t need that guy... ahem, I’m afraid we can’t handle it on our own. We really do need Elder Mu to step in! HAHAHAHA! Greetings, Elder Mu."

"..."

An Internal Affairs Elder was about to continue, chiming in after the previous speaker, when he suddenly saw a familiar figure appear in the Central Hall. The words coming out of his mouth took an abrupt turn. Upon seeing the newcomer, everyone else in the hall fell silent.

Yang An lightly patted the man’s shoulder and gave a slight smile, but he didn’t pay them much mind. Instead, his gaze shifted to Thirty Flow, who sat in the master’s seat.

"Which front are the people from Qiangui Mountain on?"

Everyone was quite surprised by Yang An’s sudden arrival, including Thirty Flow. He had tried to contact the man twice before with no response, so he never expected him to show up now.

’Does he have a grudge against the people of Qiangui Mountain?’

"The entire southeastern region."

Thirty Flow answered truthfully. A large number of Cultivators from Qiangui Mountain were currently participating in dozens of battles along the southeastern front.

"Good!"

Yang An gave a slight nod. A blinding light flashed within the Central Hall, and his figure vanished in an instant, coming and going like the wind.

"What are you all looking at me for? Did I say something wrong? Let’s see you try it in my position!"

The Internal Affairs Elder, who had just performed a masterclass in changing one’s tune, snapped back at their stares. He spoke in a huff before quickly regaining his usual air of authority.

"All of you, go! We can’t let Elder Mu charge ahead alone. Remain on standby nearby, ready to provide him with support at a moment’s notice."

Thirty Flow shot up from the master’s seat and addressed everyone present.

The Cultivators who had arrived from Qiangui Mountain this time were no simple foes. There were quite a few in the Insect Dao Realm among them, and the number of those in the Zombie God Realm was simply countless.

It was precisely their arrival that had thrown the Golden Thread Pavilion’s battle plans into disarray, causing the pressure on their side to multiply.

Although Yang An was capable of killing Wen Zhao of the Insect Dao Realm and had slain an Insect Dao Bodhisattva from the Great Virtue Temple during the assault on Dragonfly Bamboo Peak, those were ultimately one-on-one fights. The danger of facing multiple Insect Dao Realm experts at once was self-evident.

If anything were to happen to Yang An, Thirty Flow would have a difficult time answering to the Supreme Elder.

And as the Pavilion Master of the Golden Thread Pavilion, he had to personally hold the fort on the Floating Island, leaving the Great Virtue Temple no opportunity to exploit any weakness.

Otherwise, if the Great Virtue Temple were to get past the Floating Island, they could advance unimpeded into the State Territory under the Golden Thread Pavilion’s jurisdiction. The Pavilion’s very Sect headquarters would be in grave danger.

"The Pavilion Master is absolutely right. We’ll go at once, at once."

A whole throng of people departed the Central Hall, heading for the southeastern front right on Yang An’s heels.

A dozen breaths later, Yang An arrived near the southeastern front. Even from a great distance, he could hear a droning sound that filled the sky.

Beneath the dim horizon, a faint, gloomy light still lingered. But several miles away, a sky full of tiny shadows danced ceaselessly in the air. The flapping of hundreds of millions of wings was enough to make the very heavens and earth tremble.

At the same time, the panicked shouts of countless Cultivators could be heard as they fled in all directions from the endless swarms of Gu Insects. Across the entire southeastern region, the Cultivators of the Golden Thread Pavilion were in a state of constant retreat.
