Jue Ying nodded upon hearing the voice, his entire being growing increasingly entangled.
Cao Zhen looked at Jue Ying with anger and disappointment and shouted, "I don't know what you're agonizing over. Are you or are you not a cultivator? As fellow cultivators of one of the ten great Immortal Sects, those three from Dharma Apex Sect, even after their bodies were invaded by the Death Aura and they almost turned into Zombie Soldiers, they used the last bit of their consciousness to find ways to alert outsiders to the changes here. When we arrived, though fully capable of killing us, they still controlled themselves, suppressed their cultivation base, and let me kill them."
"That's what true cultivators are. And then there's Zhao, the head of the authorities you killed."
Cao Zhen pointed to the body of Zhao and exclaimed, "Even Zhao, a mere mortal, could stand firm in his beliefs, could stand up for the civilians here, preferring to be killed by you.
