c973: Destroying the Body and Erasing All Traces (Part 3) (2)

With that, he directly rushed in through the gap.

Others followed suit, saying: "I have a Taoist friend who's an elder in your Shen Family, and I've heard that he also had an accident, so I'll go take a look..."

"I have a nephew who's also from your Shen Family..."

"I have a grandfather-in-law, surnamed Shen..."

"I have an affair..."

Anyway, randomly making up a connection, everyone rushed in.

Collective guilt wasn't a concern, as long as the disturbance was big enough and there were enough participants, they weren't afraid of the Shen Family's retribution at all.

Moreover, the fact that the Shen Family was so panicked indicated a significant scandal hidden in this mine.

This was unheard of for the usually cautious Shen Family and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Amidst the chaos, no one noticed Mo Hua and his group quietly discarded the Shen Family's Taoist robes, changed into ordinary clothes, and blended into the crowd, then joined the Taixu Sect's group.

Xun Zixian pulled Mo Hua to his side, checked his pulse and meridians, and stared into Mo Hua's eyes for a while. After several confirmations, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked:

"Are you okay?"

"Yes!" Mo Hua nodded.

Next to him, Xun Ziyou said, "Help me check as well."

Xun Zixian ignored him.

"As long as you're okay, this is not the place for talking, let's retreat first," Xun Zixian said.

"Aren't we staying to see how things develop?" Mo Hua asked.

Xun Zixian shook his head, "The situation is too chaotic, we can't stay for long."

Moreover, the ancestor's command was to rescue people.

Now that Mo Hua was safe, that was more important than anything, and the Shen Family's matters became secondary.

Mo Hua nodded.

The Great Wilderness Dragon Vein and Lord Yellow Mountain's Lifebound Divine Statue were still in his possession.

Both were extremely important items.

He needed to return early to hide these items properly, without causing additional trouble.

The Shen Family's matter had already torn a hole open, and what followed should be left for the other aristocratic families and sects to deal with.

The bigger the commotion, the better...

So Xun Zixian led a group of elders to escort Mo Hua and his companions out of the Shen Family's mine.

Just before leaving, Mo Hua looked back at the Solitary Mountain City, feeling inexplicably uneasy.

He had a nagging feeling that there seemed to be other causes within the Solitary Mountain City.

This cause even made him feel extremely dangerous...

Moreover, it was terrifyingly grand...

"What could it be..."

Mo Hua frowned, shook his head, stopped pondering, and left the Solitary Mountain City with the group of Taixu Sect elders.

...

Within the mine, the conflict between the Shen Family and other aristocratic families' cultivators gradually spread and expanded.

The scene was chaotic, with cultivators in melee, and volatile energy crossing each other.

Meanwhile, beneath the Solitary Mountain City, in the Divine Temple.

The grand hall was gradually collapsing, with rubble falling everywhere, and the ground was soaked with blood and broken corpses.

Amidst the deathly silence.

The already dead Shen Shouxing suddenly opened his eyes, and within them was a deep blackness.
