In Nie Yuan's nature, sparing the opponent from being killed was already considered lenient; if he had gone all the way, he might have met his demise by now.
However, by crippling the opponent's cultivation and letting Wu Shan's younger brother go, he had truly stirred up a storm.
Members of the Enforcement Hall personally apprehended Nie Yuan, and his disciples were sent to the Xiao Family.
It was said that Nie Yuan's current state was even more desolate.
In his early years, his Dao Companion fell while pregnant, his disciples were taken away by stubborn junior disciples, and he himself ended up trapped in a mine.
Moreover, Nie Yuan's mission involved obtaining 10,000 cubic Space Fire Abyssal Stones, a task that would be difficult to accomplish in just a few epochs.
Nevertheless, Nie Yuan's determination was formidable, and after 50,000 years, he had managed to excavate one cubic unit.
A man of hardship!
