章 170: Chapter 169 Ah, How Scary

At this moment, Xie Jiuniang was unaware that the sky outside the formation was growing darker by the moment.

Darker than anywhere else.

This darkness was due to the Time Leaf absorbing the mysterious energies around it. The more energy in the vicinity, the darker the environment became.

Not only that, but demonic beasts also began to take notice of this area.

Suddenly, the formation came under attack.

The few people inside the cave simultaneously opened their eyes, stood up alertly, and pulled out their weapons, fixating on the cave entrance.

Reminded by Jian Lingyan, Xie Jiuniang became aware that disciples from the sect were approaching the cave, being the kind pursued by demonic beasts and fleeing towards their cave. "Little Jianjian, who is it?"

"Hehe, it's Lin Wangchen and Ren Bingyan, plus three other disciples," Jian Lingyan gleefully reported.

Xie Jiuniang, however, did not smile, "I remember their team had more than a dozen members, right?"
