Of course, that is not the main point.

He asked m confusion, “How did you survive without knowing anything?”

Li Wanchun explained with some resentment, “All I know is that there were no customers in the store at that time. A strong pressure swept over, and I passed out. When I awoke, the array of Wanbao Pavilion had been activated, and it remained so for half a month before Elder Chu took us out.”

“You all?” A thought flashed in Luo Chen’s mind.

“Yes, a few disciples from Wanbao Pavilion, plus a few rogue cultivators from the local area, we all made it out alive.”

“Without a scratch?”

After several consecutive questions, Li Wanchun had calmed down considerably.

He hastily nodded, “Indeed, there was no major harm. There were many precious items in the building, and the big array protected us. Moreover, Elder Chu has rich experience and took care of us. Honestly, we didn’t suffer any injuries. But…”

“Hm?”

He said with a bitter smile, “But Elder Chu said that the Wanbao Pavilion in The Great River District might not be able to restart for a while, so he laid us off.” Luo Chen frowned, thinking it was some important information.

As he was feeling dispirited, a clamor came from ahead.

GhostT The saw f°ur graceful figures slowly advancing through the s100my

“Is someone coming out again?”

Luo Chen perked up, hoping to get some information from this group of people. However, the result disappointed him.

Those four charming figures vanished into Spirit Light as soon as they left the city.

Leaving behind only one overbearing figure.

He didn’t even glance at the many cultivators outside, but snorted coldly and disappeared into the horizon riding a colored cloud.

After he left, the oppressive atmosphere became lively again.

Was that Senior Hua from the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion?”

“Should be, it was him.”

pBUtrWh“e are the °ther female cultivators from the Heavenly Fragrance

“Yeah, didn’t see any.”

“Gosh, could they have all died in there?”

The last sentence was mixed in with many comments and was pushed to the center of the discussion.

Everyone had to admit that the previously bustling Gold-Mine, The Great River District, might have been decimated, barring that one True Cultivator who had reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

The four charming figures that appeared were not real people, but rather seemed like a Magic Tool or a Magic Item.

Only the Hua surname cultivator of the Foundation Establishment stage had come out.

The thought that so many charming and unforgettable female cultivators had died in the Ghost City made people shudder.

“This senior, isn’t it too…”

“Be careful with your words!”

“Real Cultivators of the Foundation Establishment stage, are not something that we can discuss about.”

Even though the discussion’s volume decreased, the sympathy on everyone’s faces couldn’t be concealed.

Especially in the afternoon, when the cultivators from Shen Fu Pavilion Spirit Source Study, Spirit Medicine Hall, and the Hundred Herbs Pavilion emerged one after another, everyone had to accept the nearly complete annihilation of the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion.

Even the Spirit Source Study, which was known to be harsh towards its own cultivators, had brought out two local rogue cultivators.

That gave an idea of how cold-hearted the Hua surname cultivator from the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion must be.

It was hard to believe that other Ascendant Sect shops were able to protect their workers, but Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion, belonging to the Hehuan Sect, failed to do so.

Not to mention local rogue cultivators. There was even a female Inner Sect disciple from the Hehuan Sect who had come with the Hua surname cultivator, but there was no sign of her either.

In the crowd, Luo Chen respectfully approached an old man.

“Hello, Senior Liu!”

“Ah, it’s Xiao Luo. I still prefer you to call me Boss Liu.” Liu Hecai smiled as he stroked his beard.

Luo Chen nodded, “Boss Liu, I’d like to inquire about Bai…”

“I’m sorry, she worked for Hundred Herbs Pavilion. I was at Spirit Medicine

Hall at that time…And Hundred Herbs Pavilion…”

Following Liu Hecai’s regretful gaze, Luo Chen turned his head to look.

Next to the Foundation Establishment Cultivator from Hundred Herbs Pavilion, there was not a single person.

The new Foundation Establishment Cultivator was as cold-hearted as the one from the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion, leaving no one from the Hundred Herbs Pavilion alive.

He opened his mouth, but for a moment, he did not know what to say.

A feeling of emptiness filled his heart.

“Ah…”

“Let’s hope we meet again in the future!”

Liu Hecai patted Luo Chen’s shoulder, then gathered his disciples from Medicine King Sect, boarded the flying boat, and left The Great River District.

After he left, Luo Chen stared at the eerie city in front of him.

A sense of sorrow welled up in his eyes.

In times of a calamity, one ultimately cannot rely on others.

He understood this, as many people did.

But the fact that a friend had perished in the Ghost City, was still hard to accept, even though he was prepared for it.

Zhou Yuanh wasn’t sure about the relation between Bai Meiling and Luo Chen.

He came forward and whispered, “Li Wanchun has agreed to join Luo Tian Creed. Also, Spirit Medicine Hall and Hundred Herbs Pavilion have left a few local rogue cultivators. Do you want to recruit them?”

“You take it from here!”

Luo Chen responded listlessly with a wave of his hand.

In his mind, he was reminiscing about his visits to the Hundred Herbs Pavilion.

The chirpy, lively, and cute female cultivator was gone now.

Although sometimes, like other female cultivators working at the shops of the Great Sects, she would exhibit unexplained pride.

But once you got to know her, you could tell that she was genuinely nice at heart.

Whenever he went to buy medicinal herbs, she would find some good ones for him.

Last time Qjn Liangchen had to get his limbs reattached, Bai Meiling did her best to select the best of each herb for him.

Because of this, she was even punished.

Feng Xia had told him about it secretly later.

Luo Chen had always felt guilty about it. He wanted to thank Bai Meiling properly by treating her to a meal.

But now, the opportunity was gone.

“Daoist Li Wanchun, since you are skilled in Magic Tool Forging, why don’t you

join my Duan Family and put your skills to good use?”

This loud recruitment voice came from beside him.

Luo Chen turned around abruptly!
