Buzz! In the night sky, the vast array light of the Heavenly Work Great Camp surged and spread out, instantly enveloping the entire camp.
“What’s happening?”
Many powerful individuals within the Heavenly Work Great Camp, having just felt the dark power that had shrouded them dissipate, were now caught in this terrifying array, causing immediate panic.
They could also sense the intense rumbling coming from Mount Fire God; that battle aura evidently came from top-level venerable experts.
Could it be that a strong enemy is attacking the Heavenly Work?
Panic spread among the crowd.
“Everyone, look quickly.”
At this moment… whoosh! Elder Yehe and other powerful figures appeared in the sky, hovering above the Heavenly Work Great Camp. The moment Elder Yehe and the others appeared, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.
“Everyone, earlier, our Heavenly Work Great Camp was invaded by the Demon Tribe. Now, that Demon Tribe expert has been dealt with by us. However, for safety reasons, the Heavenly Work Great Camp is temporarily sealed off. No one is allowed to leave the camp or communicate with the outside world. We will reopen it once the situation is handled. Please do not worry,” Elder Yehe said.
Naturally, Elder Yehe would not reveal that Ancient Sun Earth Venerable was a spy for the Demon Tribe, as that would cause widespread concern and commotion.
Wow! As soon as Elder Yehe's words fell, the entire camp erupted into chaos. It turned out that there had indeed been a Demon Tribe expert invading the Heavenly Work, and that terrifying dark shield must have been created by that expert. Thankfully, Elder Yehe and the others managed to fend it off; otherwise, they would be in great trouble.
If the Heavenly Work Great Camp were breached by the Demon Tribe experts, the disciples in the camp would fear they could not escape death.
However, what puzzled them was why the Demon Tribe would intrude into the Heavenly Work Great Camp. This was the first time in years that the Demon Tribe had done something like this. Were they here to loot the various resources and treasures of the Heavenly Work?
This was too blatant, wasn’t it?
In the mining area, many wandering cultivators were anxious.
Many of these wandering cultivators were not from the Heavenly Work; they were merely here to earn some merits. Now that a Demon Tribe expert was attacking, how could they possibly want to stay here?
One by one, they demanded to leave.
“This matter is of utmost importance; no one is allowed to leave. Otherwise, that would be opposing the Heavenly Work!”
Elder Yehe's icy gaze swept over the wandering cultivators in the mining area as he coldly stated, “If you all stay here with peace of mind, I can double your merit points during this time. If anyone dares to cause trouble, don’t blame me for being unkind.”
Elder Yehe was the commander of this camp and had absolute control. Once he got angry, no wandering cultivator dared to speak up.
Those who came to the mining area to earn merit points were all cultivators without any backing; who would truly dare to offend Elder Yehe and the Heavenly Work? Would they be courting death?
Moreover, there was the incentive of double merit points.
“It must be that the sect has taken action.”
The Lion-Tiger Demon Lord and others seemed to be pondering. Just earlier, Qin Chen had inquired about the situation here, and now there was a Demon Tribe invasion that night. There must be some connection between the two. They were quite surprised that the information they obtained could actually lead the Demon Tribe to invade the Heavenly Work Great Camp.
Soon, the entire camp quieted down under the binding power of the Heavenly Work experts.
Whoosh! Elder Yehe and his group returned to the main hall.
“Brother Qin, those people have settled down,” Elder Yehe said upon returning.
“Thank you for your hard work, Elder Yehe.”
Qin Chen looked at the other elders and powerful figures in the hall, saying, “I ask all the elders and friends to not leave the Heavenly Work Great Camp for the time being.”
