The Shifting Tides
Upon sensing the threat of the newcomers that easily cut down even what could be considered the elites of the Veiled Abyss cultivators present, the leader and the masked figure gritted their teeth and issued a reluctant retreat to avoid getting annihilated.
By the time the dust settled, Xu Qi, Elder Zhou and the rest of the Wandering Palace cultivators within the barrier formation all heaved a sigh of relief to see the emblem of the Wandering Palace on the robes of the reinforcements.
Elder Zhou also recognized them as she hurriedly came to the front greeting them as the Wandering Inspectors.
Unfortunately, Xu Qi who had expended a lot of his qi by continuously using Elemental Scrying and Celestial Eloquence was attacked by exhaustion as soon as the tension outside the barrier subsided. He staggered, his knees buckling, and the barrier formation wavered with his unsteady breaths.
