Curse
A group of elders stood outside Ancestral Garden with grave expressions on their faces. Four people were stuck inside. First and Third Elder quivered. Xiaobai came over, thundering, shoving adepts aside and making his way to the entrance. The elders did not recognise the boy. Xiaobai went bananas after he heard what happened and raced over. Yuan Xia felt as if she was suffocating. She inquired, “Why did you close the doors?”
Since Murong Feng did not make it out, Fourth Elder was so angry he stomped over and shouted, “Hmph, how audacious!”
Xiaobai fearlessly fired back, “You begged us to go in, and now you shut the door on us?! What is the meaning of this?!”
Fourth Elder tried to assault Xiaobai. Yang Xiao stepped in front with a stoic expression and took the blow head on. With a flick of his finger, Yang Xiao almost snapped Fourth Elder’s arm! Yang Xiao had yet to gain full control over his physical body because he came rushing over.
Fourth Elder: “You people must be behind this treachery!”
The other members of Herb Deity Valley decided to board Fourth Elder’s wagon.
Yang Xiao: “First Elder, is that what you believe?”
First Elder felt awkward. He knew Yang Tian’s friends were wrongly accused. Smiling, Third Elder hastily stepped forward to appease Yang Xiao. “Brother Yang, this is a misunderstanding. Please forgive us.”
Who could say for sure what would happen if Xin Yu found out what happened? Yuan Xia, consequently, suppressed her anger. “Open up, then.”
Anxious, Third Elder responded, “We can’t. A devil has emerged inside. You know what our aim in opening the garden was; we are more worried than you are.”
Third Elder’s last statements only served to fan Yuan Xia’s raging flames. She regretted letting them go in.
An elder approached the crowd. Everyone respectfully turned to him. Fourth Elder immediately said, “Hall Elder, you are finally here. Had it not been for these humans, Murong Feng would be safe and sound.”
Hall Elder swept his gaze over everyone. He stopped his gaze on Yang Xiao. After a quick think, he scowled. “Why are there humans in First Ancestral Ground?”
First Elder: “Elder, Great Elder was the one who permitted them entry.”
“Hmph, so you all think you’re above me now? How dare you humans barge into our ancestral grounds? Get out!”
Yang Xiao thrust a palm strike at the elder. The elder responded with his own palm strike, but Yang Xiao drove him back several steps and drew blood. The others immediately started firing off their mouth cannons, encouraging the idea of imprisoning the humans.
Rumble! The copper door trembled. A forbidden energy smashed into it from the other side. The Divine Devil grew thirty-three kilometres tall. He thundered and smashed the copper altar in front of him to try and drag Yang Tian out.
Yang Tian had no choice but to activate the altar in order to escape. The nightmare dragon told him to stay calm as they could escape via the route they came in via. Yang Tian sighed.
Formation patterns manifested in the sky, and a door gradually opened. The devil kept pummelling the altar to no avail. Eventually, he recited, “Ancestor, on my name, I offer you my blood. Heed my call and summon a divine devil curse!”
Countless divine devil voices rang out. Yang Tian’s Divine Soul began to tremble once he was close to the dimensional gate. The nightmare dragon angrily exclaimed, “Run!”
