"M...Mingjue!"
Lan Zhan readied Bichen and Wei Ying whipped out his bamboo flute, combining their energies together to stop Mingjue from entering any further in the temple.
However, Mingjue's strength stopped both the sword and flute with only his bare hands. He then broke the ground underneath.
Su She and Li Ming took this opportunity to escape with the injured Jin Guangyao, "Be careful, Clan Leader" Su She said. Just then, Heidian was summoned and wrapped itself around Li Ming's neck and it started dragging her away, "Dammit!" Su She cursed.
Li Ming was then on the floor staring up at a pissed off Lan Anhe, "Don't think you'll escape after what you have done to my family!"
Outside of the temple, Wei Ying threw multiple talismans at Mingjue, but he quickly disintegrated all of them with his dark energy. He then rushed in the temple and went after Jin Guangyao. Su She unsheathed his sword and blocked Mingjue from reaching Guangyao, "Clan Leader, go!"
Mingjue broke Su She's sword with ease and killed him right on the spot. At the same time, Lan Anhe was letting all her anger out on Li Ming by whipping her back with brute force. That sound of Heidian caught Mingjue's attention and went after Li Ming.
He ignored Lan Anhe and grabbed Li Ming by the neck. Li Ming suddenly froze in fear once she saw Mingjue in his current state. He began choking her as his nails sunk in her neck. Li Ming's was slowly losing her vision as tears swelled up in her eyes, "Jiejie..."
Li-Qin rushed to Lan Anhe and her eyes widened as Mingjue slammed Li Ming to the ground and killed her. Lai Cixi held onto Huaisang's arm and buried her face in it.
"Brother!"
Mingjue rushed back to Guangyao, who was now being shielded by Xichen. Huaisang and Lai Cixi were also there. Lan Zhan blocked Mingjue back with Bichen and Lan Anhe joined in with Pohuai.
"Brother, can you not recognize me anymore?" Huaisang cried.
"It's not just that. He doesn't even know who he is right now" Wei Ying stated as he, Lan Zhan, and Lan Anhe were fighting him off. Wen Ning woke up again and pulled Mingjue back with his chains.
"Wen Ning, where did you run into him?" Wei Ying asks. "The observation towers" Wen Ning answered as he wrapped his chains around Mingjue's neck.
"Xichen and I sent over a dozen men to watch over him. But they still couldn't hold him there" Huaisang said, "With his head reattached to his body, his resentful energy has increased drastically" Xichen stated.
