Chapter 147: Life-saving (First Part)

When Green Bamboo Mountain massacred the Yang Family, not only did they exterminate the Yang Family's cultivators on the spot, but they also intentionally or unintentionally "accidentally" harmed many mortal members of the Yang Family.The initial posting of this chapter occurred via Ñøv€l-B!n.

After the battle, several hundred mortal members of the Yang Family lost their lives instantly. Only those who were far away from the battlefield managed to barely escape the calamity.

Later, Green Bamboo Mountain conducted a thorough search within the oasis where the Yang Family resided, clearing out all mortal members of the Yang Family. In this process, a large number of people were killed.

In the end, around 600-700 mortal members of the Yang Family remained, and Green Bamboo Mountain exiled them all. The place of exile was not too far from Singing Sand City. It took some effort for Green Bamboo Mountain to transport these mortals to that location.

It was a desolate place at the foot of a small mountain, with an unobstructed view and no shelter in sight. The 600-700 mortals temporarily settled in a makeshift camp. On the top of a small hill near the camp, several Green Bamboo Mountain cultivators kept a vigilant watch on the surroundings day and night.

The exiled mortals only had a small amount of food and water with them. In the vast desert, they endured scorching sunlight, extreme heat, and a lack of food and water. Within a short period, nearly half of the mortals perished. If it weren't for Green Bamboo Mountain's intention to use these mortals as bait to attract the remaining Yang Family cultivators, these mortals would have probably died out long ago.

The cultivators from Green Bamboo Mountain responsible for monitoring occasionally provided some food and water to barely sustain the lives of these people. Even so, mortals continued to die one after another.

If the situation did not improve, it wouldn't take long before all these mortals perished.

One morning, a caravan passed nearby. Over a dozen humped sand lizard beasts formed a long queue. The Green Bamboo Mountain cultivator in charge of monitoring the camp casually glanced at the caravan and then shifted their gaze.

This was a caravan belonging to Forest Spring Watch, which passed by the area regularly. The Green Bamboo Mountain cultivators had encountered this caravan two or three times before.

On one of the humped sand lizard beasts in the caravan, Meng Zhang was expressing his gratitude to Lin Bailin, "Brother Bailin, I'm really grateful for your help this time."

"Brother Meng, there's no need to be polite. We're like-minded friends, and this is just a small matter; there's nothing to worry about. You're just hitching a ride with the caravan," Lin Bailin replied.

"Moreover, Green Bamboo Mountain, despite being a reputable sect, acts with such malicious methods, which is truly despicable."

"Brother Meng, you're doing a righteous and benevolent deed. Unfortunately, as a disciple of Forest Spring Watch, I must prioritize the interests of my sect and cannot do much more. I hope you'll succeed in your endeavors and promote justice," Lin Bailin sincerely said.

Meng Zhang found Lin Bailin's character and temperament to be very much to his liking. Lin Bailin possessed both righteousness and compassion, and he had a clear understanding of reality without acting impulsively.

When Meng Zhang sought Lin Bailin's help, he had unexpectedly received a favorable response, with Lin Bailin personally finding the leader of Forest Spring Watch's caravan. Lin Bailin not only hid Meng Zhang and his people within the caravan but also accompanied them in person.

As the flying boat was getting close to the battlefield, it began to lower its altitude.

Suddenly, a series of figures sprang out from the empty desert in front of them.

Meng Zhang and Jue Ying were the first to emerge from the ground, jointly casting a Second Rank talisman, forming a golden giant sword above their heads.

Although they could not fully exert the power of the Second Rank talisman, the power they unleashed was enough for now.

The golden giant sword fiercely slashed toward the head of the Second Rank flying boat.

This was just an ordinary transport flying boat, not a specially designed vessel for aerial combat. Moreover, the attack came suddenly, catching the cultivators on the flying boat off guard.

After the slash, the golden giant sword disappeared into thin air. The flying boat was heavily damaged and began to sway before gradually descending toward the ground.

Fortunately, the flying boat was carrying cultivators, and its flying altitude was not too high at the time.

Dozens of Green Bamboo Mountain cultivators jumped down from the flying boat one after another, landing on the ground.

Nine Taiyi Sect cultivators, who had been hiding underground with the help of the Earth Escape Spell, surfaced and formed a formation under Wen Qiansun's lead.

Although there were only nine of them, they were the elite force of Taiyi Sect. Wen Qiansun, Tian Li, Zheng Chao, Hu Jing, and others were among them, each holding a large flag with one half fiery red and the other dark blue.

Without the need for Meng Zhang's order, Wen Qiansun commanded them to launch their attack.

The nine large flags fluttered, and a whirlwind suddenly swept across the ground.

The whirlwind, carrying countless yellow sands, roared and enveloped almost all of the Green Bamboo Mountain cultivators.

Hidden within the raging whirlwind, blazing flames surged forth, madly engulfing the Green Bamboo Mountain cultivators.
