Chapter 973: Saintess came and Red Hair left
Still that camp. But as compared to when it started, it was several times bigger.
The core portion was still the ground made up of the six-sided jade stone. The other areas were a silver metal.
Saint Light Hall was using this method to show off their aura.
Of course, they might also be showing off their wealth.
In a giant white tent in the core region, the three heads of Saint Light Hall sat around a table, their expressions solemn.
Nan Jin drank the green liquid in his cup and smiled.
“In the past, drinking coral fruit juice was one of my hobbies. I felt like the sweet and sour taste was enjoyable, but now, I feel like this thing is very bitter.”
The other two were helpless when they heard that.
They had faced their biggest problem since their attacks started.
Bad news continued to spread these few days. First was the beast nurturing area that was sneak attacked. Thousands of troops were killed. If you added the ten thousand beasts there, that was a huge loss.The weird thing was that when the squad rushed over to investigate, they only saw a portion of the corpses. There were some that were incomplete, with their spines taken. Those mounts all disappeared, and no one knew where they went.
Five digits of beasts. Even the blood alone would form a small lake. How did they disappear?
There were some marks. But apart from proving that a battle had occurred, there were no useful clues.
Oh, right, there were signs of soul techniques.
But this was a battle between Posthumous people and them, so what was the surprise that someone was using a soul technique?
Of course, the soul technique was weird and very terrifying. It caused one to lose their soul.
However, this wasn’t much of an issue for the three heads. Posthumous people might have terrifying abilities, but Saint Light Hall did, too.
The sneak attack was just a start. In the next few days, numerous Saint Light Hall squads were attacked. The enemies’ attack could be described with three words.
Quick, accurate, vicious!
When they attacked, they wiped out everyone.
Saint Light Hall members were tactically astute. When they cleared Posthumous people squads, they worked together really well. Each team was connected and wouldn’t give the enemy a chance to strike.
Of course, this was in the past. Now, that perfect coordination was shattered. Two Light Cavalry Squads bases, a Light Feather Squad base and a decent scale replenishment base.
These squads weren’t together and weren’t even in the same region. They were the pride of the three leaders, but now, they have become the battle results of the Posthumous people.
“Although the main force didn’t suffer huge losses, less than three thousand people, but the other squads and logistics have had a huge blow. There are over ten thousand casualties… No, no injuries, only death.”
Zaili looked at the table and said the news they just received.
“Commander Li, you are the commander of the Light Feather Warriors, and your troops are the most mobile. Can you find a way to track these people? I think that the same squad caused the few sneak attacks.”
Rong Zhi was Saint Hall Guard’s commander. He was in charge of Saint Hall, Saintess, and Saint Father. Although he was on the same level as Nan Jin and Zaili, but his status was slightly higher.
His words meant that he was actually slightly unhappy with Zaili’s Light Feather Warriors, which were the airforce.
“I tried, but it was useless. They also have air troops and they aren’t weak.”
Zaili had told his subordinates to scout the space on the frontlines, but they didn’t notice anything. They only saw the group retreating once, but when they chased, they were attacked. The flames from the explosions terrified the eagles, which is why they didn’t dare to chase.
Rongzhi nodded and frowned, “We can only reduce the battle region and increase the connection of forces?”
“But we will miss out on some Posthumous people tribes. The Saint Father said that this was a battle to wipe them out. Our goal is to wipe them from this place. If some of them hide then reproduce, it would be a problem.”
The other two leaders didn’t continue. Although they had the power to make decisions, the higher-ups often would decide.
Rongzhi remained silent for a while and unwillingly said, “Then let’s do it; I will explain to the Saint Father.”
He hesitated and then told Zaili, “I think that when needed, we can use that thing on the big and super factions. Although it is immoral, their terrifying soul techniques aren’t any better!”
The other two commanders looked at each other and nodded.
The meeting ended there. The three of them were about to leave as they had things to deal with. But a dragon roar spread from the distance, and they stopped.
The three of them looked at each other and knew the Saintess was here.

When Siant Light Hall was fussing about solving the sneak attacks, the team that caused them huge problems had left the region Saint Light Hall thought they were in. They were behind them at where Ah Tao’s tribe was previously at.
The team carried three giant blood totems. Each warrior was filled with thick killing energy.
“It had been two days?” Liang Chuyin sat on the Posthumous people's side of the hill and looked into the distance.
“En.”
Ye Zhongming replied and also looked forward.
Ye Zhongming knew that Red Hair wanted to come here and guessed that she came for the soul pearl and also those high-quality bones.
But he didn’t expect that Red Hair would lead her subordinates in after arriving here. In a few hours, they disappeared from their sight. Two days passed, and they weren’t back. If not for the mental energy connection, Ye Zhongming really thought that something happened to her.
The Undead Hill was only a name. Actually, a huge area was called Undead Hill. Ah Tao mentioned that the areas where they intersected with the Night Demon Plains were all called Undead Hill.
Red Hair was probably at the edge of the Night Demon Plains.
“Are we still waiting?”
Liang Chuyin thought about those different undead lifeforms, and her body became numb. She didn’t understand how Red Hair survived in such a situation.
“No.” Ye Zhongming made up his mind. He was unsure when Red Hair would return, so he couldn’t waste too much time here.
He sent her a few repeated mental energy pulses to tell her that he wanted to leave and told her to call him when she wanted to return.
Then, the team started to head back.
