After fifteen minutes, more than ten great beings at the state of saint showed up beside the lake. Some of them came alone, while some were in a group of four or five.
Aside from Martial Market Bank, whose power was spread everywhere, powerful beings from Black Market Excellence Hall, Moon Worship Demonic Sect and some of the top-tier powers in the north, like Xinsu Sect, one of the seven ancient sects, and Four Symbols Sect, one of the three streams of Taichi Sect, were also here.
There were dozens of human saints on a small island, and every one of them was prominent. Indeed, it was a gathering of a large group of great beings.
Which meant a saint pill that was a hundred thousand years old was very attractive.
“How did they learn about it so quickly. We haven’t even gotten on the island, yet they’re all here already,” Qing Mo said.
It wasn’t easy to pick a Thousand Leaves Saint Core Grass, and now that there were so many of them, it would be more difficult.
Zhang Ruochen smiled and said, “Who else can it be?”
Qing Mo’s eyes glinted and she opened her mouth wide. She said, “Are you saying it’s Gu Songzi who leaked the information?”
“No one else.”
“But why would he do that? Wasn’t he afraid some other powers would get the Thousand Leaves Saint Core Grass?” Qing Mo was confused.
Zhang Ruochen said, “It only means one thing: that it’s actually harder to get Thousand Leaves Saint Core Grass than we thought. Gu Songzi led them here because he wanted them to die.”
“That old guy is so wicked,” Qing Mo sneered.
Meanwhile, a purple-caped elder flew to Yuan Island, as he thought he was strong enough.
He was the vice leader of a super sect in the north. He was almost five hundred years old with tremendous power. Unfortunately, he was dying, so he had to try to get the Thousand Leaves Saint Core Grass to make his life longer.
“If I can get the Thousand Leaves Saint Core Grass, my cultivation will surge, and my life will be made much longer.”
The eyes of that purple-caped elder gleamed, and purple mist gushed out of his body, shaking the space around him, yet the water in Yuan Lake was like metal, and there weren’t even ripples while bearing such saint might destruction Qi.
The purple-caped elder sensed the power of that lake, so he tried to retreat.
Hong Long.
Engravings emerged in the sky, forming a huge lightning network, covering him completely.
“There’s a killing ground…”
The purple-caped elder yelled and wielded four saint weapons at the same time. The purple mist coming out of his body became denser as he wanted to tear that lightning net apart.
Peng Peng. Cracking sounds came from Yuan Lake.
All four saint weapons exploded, and then, the body of that purple-caped elder also exploded, turning into bloody mist.
A vice sect leader had been killed.
All the saints’ hearts skipped a beat after witnessing something so horrifying.
“Han Fuju is an absolute ground saint, yet he was still killed that easily?”
“What kind of killing ground is that? Even a saint can’t resist it.”
The leader of Black Market Excellence Hall sneered, “Yuan Lake was where Wuyuan Supreme Saint lived before. Do you really think it’s so easy to get it? Even some random formation inscriptions from the supreme saint could have terrifying killing might.”
A supreme saint had immense power which couldn’t be envisioned by saints. Obviously, Wuyuan Supreme Saint had left a killing ground here, and after a hundred thousand years, the killing ground had become rugged and lost most of its power.
However, Yuan Lake was still an extremely dangerous place.
All the saints calmed themselves down and started to talk about ways to break the killing ground.
Four saints from Martial Market Bank entered Xianji Mountain. The most powerful one was called Qiu Lanshan, and he had reached Heaven Pass Realm. He was one of the leaders of the Northern Region Saint Academy.
As for the other three, two of them were elders who had reached Xuanhuang Realm, and one of them was Xue Shen, a young rising star.
Xue Shen looked sharp and handsome. He had reached the state of saint before turning a hundred years old.
Xu Shen was observing the environment after coming to Yuan Lake. He was young but experienced.
Xue Shen looked at Zhu Qingyi, and he looked startled and frightened.

He then moved his lips and whispered to Qiu Lanshan and the two elders at Xuanhuang Realm. One of the Xuanhuang elders yelled, “How is that possible?”
All the four great beings from Martial Market Bank stared at Zhu Qingyi, and then, they looked to Zhang Ruochen and Qing Mo.
“It must be that she-devil. Though she’s not wearing a veil, she has very similar forces.”
“She looks feeble. Was she injured?”
“There’s a layer of gold on the skin of that she-devil. She must’ve been poisoned by Jinfu giant python. What a great opportunity. I’ll kill her today to avenge the monks killed by her today.” Qiu Lanshan looked hostile.
Zhang Ruochen sensed that someone was staring at him. He then saw four saints from Martial Market Bank dashing toward him.
“Die, she-devil!”
Xue Shen pulled out a blue saint sword that was five feet long and let out enormous saint might, wielding the saint sword, hitting toward the chest of Zhu Qingyi.
Those traces of sword Qi covered both Zhang Ruochen and Qing Mo.
Zhang Ruochen furrowed his eyebrows and pointed forward. A circular lightning shield was formed, warding off the blue saint sword.
Qing Mo didn’t expect them to make attacks without any warning. She yelled, “What are you guys doing?”
There were great offensive forces in the voice, which formed sound ripples, knocking Xue Shen away until he retreated back to the saint soul domain of Qiu Lanshan.
The hat Xue Shen was wearing also cracked, and he looked awkward.
Qing Mo didn’t want to hurt anyone, so she had only used ten percent of her power, otherwise, Xue Shen wouldn’t have been able to stand now.
Xue Shen was the youngest saint from Northern Region Saint Academy, and he wasn’t afraid of anyone, yet he was knocked away by a sixteen-year-old girl. He couldn’t have been more shocked.
All the monks at the lakeshore were started by Qing Mo’s shouting. They all looked to her.
Qiu Lanshan stared at Qing Mo and said, “It’s incredible that an alien like you can become so powerful. Unfortunately, you chose to side with immortal vampires. You’re being suicidal.”
“Who’re you calling an alien?”
Qing Mo’s eyes turned cold as she was furious. There were blue flames coming out of her body.
As a plant type creature, she already felt marginalized in the human world. She was so triggered after hearing someone call her an alien.
Qiu Lanshan snorted, “You’re not a human being, and now, you’ve joined the immortal vampires. Am I wrong saying you’re an alien?”
The human monks also became hostile after hearing ‘immortal vampires.’ They all rushed toward Zhang Ruochen, Qing Mo and Zhu Qingyi.
Zhang Ruochen realized that there were some misunderstandings. He frowned and said, “Who told you I’ve joined the immortal vampires? Don’t falsely accuse us.”
Xue Shen said, “That woman behind you is Zhu Qingyi, the she-devil from Qingtian Tribe. Countless human monks were killed by her, including the seventh leader of Northern Region Saint Academy.”
“Zhu Qingyi.”
Everyone at the lakeshore was startled. Some of them even took a few steps back.
Zhu Qingyi was a force to be reckoned with among the immortal vampires. More than ten human saints had been killed by her.
A silver-hat elder from Xingsu Sect started at Zhu Qingyi and said, “She’s indeed the she-devil. I’ve fought her before. If I didn’t use Escape Secret Technique, I would’ve been killed already.”
After confirming she was Zhu Qingyi, the sense of killing from the human saints became stronger. They wanted to tear her apart.
Zhu Qingyi loved to see something like this happen. She smiled and grabbed Zhang Ruochen’s chest, putting her face to his face. “The poison of Jinfu giant python has penetrated my meridians and saint meridians. I can’t mobilize holy Qi. If they want to kill me, I won’t be able to defend myself. You’ve got to protect me.”
“You have no shame.”
Qing Mo grabbed the hair of Zhu Qingyi and threw her on the ground.
Zhu Qingyi spit out blood, lying on the ground. However, she was still smiling.
Zhang Ruochen looked to everyone and said, “Believe it or not, she’s indeed the she-devil from the immortal vampire race, but now, she’s also being held captive by me. You need to go through me if you want to kill her.”
Qiu Lanshan sneered, “Zhu Qingyi is incredibly powerful. How could she be rendered your prisoner? You’re overestimating yourself.”
“You put on such a crappy show. You’ve defected to the immortal vampires, yet you’re trying to deceive us.”
Xue Shen said, “If I were you, I would’ve killed her the second I got her, then I’d exchange her for the military points and refining resources from the imperial government. You not only kept her alive, but also are stopping us from killing her. Are you tempted by her beauty? Or have you really defected to the immortal vampire race.”
Zhang Ruochen glanced at him and said, “You’re so short-sighted that you only want to exchange her for military points and refining resources. As for me, I can exchange her life for something far more important. We have different outlooks, so we certainly have different ways of thinking.”
“Are you calling me short-sighted?”
Xue Shen was extremely proud of himself. After hearing what Zhang Ruochen said, he was so furious that he was shivering.
“That’s right, you’re like a frog at the bottom of a well,” Zhang Ruochen said.
