Thankfully, the unique material of the jade pendant prevented it from shattering upon impact.
The pendant rolled on the ground, and all eyes followed its movement, fixated on whether it would reveal the face-up side or the face-down side.
Their lives hung in the balance.
As the pendant gradually came to a stop, revealing the result…
“Whew…”
“It’s face up! It’s face up!”
“Great, we’re saved!”
“Sob, sob, sob… My pants are already too tight. This is too exciting, far too exciting! I’m getting old and can’t handle this much excitement!”
“Don’t just stand there like idiots, quickly thank Fairy Leng for sparing our lives!”
At that moment, as the jade pendant’s face revealed its positive result, everyone felt as if they had achieved a tremendous victory. Many were moved to tears, and they collectively bowed respectfully toward Leng Yanran’s direction.
They had no doubt that if the jade pendant had shown the opposite side, the cold-hearted witch would have mercilessly slaughtered them all. No one questioned whether Leng Yanran possessed the power to do so; at least, there was definitely a mysterious powerhouse behind her!
“Thank… Thank you, Fairy Leng, for sparing our lives!”
Sect Master Yang Chun also let out a long sigh of relief, his body feeling drained. Fortunately, he was already kneeling; otherwise, he might have collapsed to the ground.
Though it was merely a gesture of tossing a jade pendant, it left everyone feeling as if they had just narrowly escaped the clutches of death.
“No need to thank me. If anything, thank my Master,” Leng Yanran replied casually, glancing at Sect Master Yang Chun, who seemed weakened. She effortlessly retrieved the jade pendant and placed it back into her storage pouch.
“Consider yourselves fortunate that your lives were spared,” Leng Yanran added nonchalantly.
From her pocket, she took out the array disk engraved with a restrictive formation and waved her hand, deactivating the barrier that everyone had been eager to escape.
The barrier instantly dissipated, prompting everyone to flee in different directions as if their lives depended on it. No one wanted to stay a moment longer in this ominous place. If that demoness changed her mind, it would spell disaster!
Even Sect Master Yang Chun was anxious to depart. “Fairy Leng, may I take my leave now?” he inquired cautiously, eyeing Leng Yanran.
“Go ahead,” Leng Yanran responded casually.
Upon hearing this, Sect Master Yang Chun was relieved, knocking his head against the ground three times in gratitude before rising to his feet and leaving in a hurry.
“Wait!”
Suddenly, Leng Yanran spoke again, startling Sect Master Yang Chun who had just taken off. He stumbled and ended up falling on his backside, now completely terrified. Could this witch be having second thoughts?
“What is this secret realm you mentioned?”
Clearly, he had misunderstood Leng Yanran’s intention. Upon realizing that she was only inquiring about the secret realm, Sect Master Yang Chun let out a sigh of relief.
