Lin Mu's words both, confused and scared the elders. One on hand, they could mean that the disciples were dead, and that there was no use in helping them, and on the other hand, it meant that Lin Mu had already killed all the Gu Legion members.
'It can't be, can it?' Liu Cai thought to himself and spread his spirit sense.
Even if his spirit sense was not as strong and far reaching as Lin Mu, it was still enough to reach a few of the areas nearby where the disciples were fighting. His spirit sense quickly picked up on the scene and he was relieved.
~phew~
"The Gu Legion members… they are all dead as senior Lin Mu said." Elder Liu Cai confirmed.
The other elders checked it on their own as well, just to be sure and all took breaths of relief. To ones who had already prepared to die here today, this was an unexpected outcome that relieved them more than they had ever felt like.
