The strength of the Returnees is self-evident.

After all, even if an idiot is trained with the technology of the Zhongzhou Empire, they can become a top-notch expert! What’s more, these people were exceptional to begin with.

After years of training, nearly all of them are skilled experts.

Previously, when they returned to the Sect, they were somewhat restrained, but once these guys gathered and formed a new force, they immediately became lawless!

It seemed that those years spent in a closed environment completely changed their disposition.

"For now, we can only take things one step at a time. If a crisis truly comes, we must face it!" the Valley Master sighed. "Also, we should probably inform those adults. If external threats aren’t resolved and internal chaos arises, our Divine Healer Valley would truly be finished!"

The crowd fell silent upon hearing this.

Those few seemed even more terrifying than the Returnees themselves.

"Valley Master, Elders, the Saintess requests an audience!" a servant suddenly requested at the door.

"The Saintess?" Everyone frowned.

Instinctively, they thought of the white-robed figures.

"Let them in. All this time, we’ve always been distinct and separate. I would like to see what they intend to do!" the Valley Master said.

But when they saw the person who came, they were immediately stunned.

These were not the white-robed figures, but the present-day Saintess, along with Ye Luo and Li Ba!

They actually returned? This completely shocked everyone present.

"Saintess, you... are unharmed?" the Valley Master asked in astonishment.

"Of course I’m unharmed. Some events did occur on Divine Spirit Island, but now that they’ve resolved, they teleported us back!" the Saintess said calmly.

"Good, it’s good that you’re back, really good! This is truly a blessing for our Divine Healer Valley!" the Valley Master said, rubbing his hands with a smile, without asking for further details.

The Saintess is extremely important to the Divine Healer Valley, especially the current Saintess, as she carries the Saintess Inheritance!

This Saintess Inheritance is passed down through generations, a rule set by the ancestors.

If the current Saintess were to meet with calamity and disappear, it would mean the disappearance of the inheritance, which would be a devastating blow to the Divine Healer Valley. No wonder the Valley Master and other Elders previously looked so troubled.

But now, with the Saintess back, it means the inheritance remains!

"Saintess, you must be weary from your journey, please rest at once. If you need anything, or have any instructions, please don’t hesitate to tell us!" the Valley Master said respectfully.

The Saintess came here just to inform them and had no intention of consulting with them.

Just as she turned to leave, she suddenly looked back.

"How is the situation in the Sixth Region now?" the Saintess suddenly asked.

Of course, given her usual personality, she wouldn’t usually inquire about this. It was naturally Ye Luo who secretly communicated with her to ask.

Since the Ferocious Beast intends to summon back its progeny, naturally, the Sixth Region would become chaotic.

He just wanted to know if the Ferocious Beast had made a move yet.

"I’m not sure what the Saintess is referring to. Currently, the Sixth Region has indeed experienced many significant events. Among them, two are related to us: many powerful figures and Elders from various forces have defected, and our Divine Healer Valley has suffered greatly. Five disciples and two Elders have defected, and their whereabouts are currently unknown! Additionally, the Returnees have formed a Returner Alliance, posing a severe threat to the stability of the Sixth Region!"

The Saintess nodded slightly, glanced at Ye Luo, and then walked out.

These matters were not surprising to her.

But for Ye Luo, they were extraordinary!

The disciples and Elders defecting indicated that the Ferocious Beast had started its work, and with a Returner Alliance, it seemed the Sixth Region was about to plunge into chaos.

The troubling thing is, these two major incidents are related to Ye Luo!

Those Returnees certainly haven’t given up on searching for him, and the Ferocious Beast naturally wouldn’t let him go either.

It’s truly a headache!

Nonetheless, the current strategy is to leave the Divine Healer Valley. If those undying old folks take notice of him, Ye Luo would be in trouble.

Moreover, those white-robed figures had somewhat noticed Ye Luo before, but since he went overseas, those undying ones could do nothing about it!

Thus, he planned to leave the Divine Healer Valley while those undying figures hadn’t realized he had returned!

Given the special nature of those white-robed figures, it would be impossible for them to leave the Divine Healer Valley to catch him.

So, after leaving the assembly hall, Ye Luo and the Saintess headed straight to Li Ba’s sister’s place.

They hadn’t gone far when they saw Li Ba hurriedly running towards them.

"My sister is missing!" Li Ba shouted from afar.

At this, the Saintess and Ye Luo were both very surprised.

"Don’t worry, your sister will be alright. I’ll go inquire for you!" The Saintess was about to leave but was held back by Ye Luo.

"Since we both suspect who it might be, there’s no need to ask. Now that they know we’ve returned, how about we wait for them at Li Ba’s sister’s place?"

Sure enough, Ye Luo’s guess was accurate.

When they arrived, a white-robed figure was already waiting for them.

"Greetings, my lord!" the Saintess quickly saluted. Even though she felt disdain towards these white-robed figures in her heart, she understood that these were Saintesses who had lived for who knows how many years, with unfathomable cultivation levels, beyond what they could contend with.

The white-robed figure lifted her head, but instead of acknowledging the Saintess, her gaze turned to Ye Luo.

When Ye Luo saw the appearance of the white-robed figure, he was immediately shocked!

What was left was no longer human! Only skin and bones remained, looking exceptionally hideous and terrifying.

Perhaps, if they didn’t absorb others’ Divine Soul Power, they might have long perished from the world.

"If you wish to save that girl, follow me!"

Having said that, she slowly walked ahead.

Even though they knew following her would be dangerous, they had no choice!

"Ye Luo, Saintess, you needn’t bother with me. I’ll go myself! Even if I can’t save my sister, the two of us will go together!" Li Ba gritted his teeth and said.

"Shut up, stop saying pointless things!" Ye Luo glared at him and followed the white-robed figure.

Li Ba watched Ye Luo’s back, his expression complex.

"Well, what kind of person is he? Don’t you know by now? Saying that to him in such a critical moment, I must say, your head is quite dense!" the Saintess said, following Ye Luo.

"Sigh, Ye Luo, I owe you far too much. In the future, I can only repay with my life!"

The white-robed figure led them to a mountain peak in the back mountain, which was the Forbidden Land of Divine Healer Valley. Even the Saintess and the Valley Master couldn’t take a single step here, naturally, it was the dwelling place of the white-robed figures.
