"Hmp! Why? Can"t you just refill your spiritual energy with a pill? Sung clan is famous for medicines." Ma Fei Hong gave Sung Zhi Ruo a scrutinizing stare. She then continued, after curling her lip up, "Removing restriction on a cultivation talisman may get me kicked out of Justice Affairs. I do not want to be jobless."
"Deacon Ma, I understand what you mean but it is not really a good time to argue. I was in the front lines earlier, and the Yinying"s are on the other side of the barrier!" Sung Zhi Ruo declared. At the time she was on the other end of the barrier, she was able to see them watching, ready to pa.s.s through anytime.
Sung Zhi Ruo immediately felt the unmistaken difference of power, that is one of the reasons why she is asking to have the restriction cultivation talisman to be removed.
She is just lucky enough to notice Gao Shen"s difference of cultivation level compared to the rest, that is also the reason why Sung Zhi Ruo sought Ma Fei Hong and Gao Lan Mei.
After removing the restriction, they need to immediately stop the sky to continuously release the impure black smoke. How? That is still something that they need to figure out since the resources that the Mortal Domain have are limited.
"You also saw that the teleportation outside the empire is not possible." Sung Zhi Ruo continued firmly.
Sung Zhi Ruo helped on maintaining the barrier earlier. It is also her idea to surround the whole empire so that the black smoke will take longer to envelop the whole territory while the citizens are being transported to somewhere else.
Unlike the Immortal Domain, wherein Empires are enclosed by multiple cities, s.h.i.+zi Empire is just one large city that has high stone walls as boundaries.
The higher the barrier the lesser chance for the smoke to be not able to pa.s.s the empire sooner. Sung Zhi Ruo also trusts that Ma Fei Hong already asked help from outside.
This is doable as walls are already surrounding the whole empire, so it is very easy for the experts to be on position. Sadly, their effort is in vain as the beings that they are saving where the first victims, shot by black arrows.
Yinyings, beings with no feelings. How can they want to just attack a lot of beings that cannot fight back?
In all honesty, Sung Zhi Ruo does not want to be involved with the empire"s issue initially, but eventually changed her mind, not only because of the guilt that will eventually eat her up but also because of her hate to Yinyings as well.
Sung Zhi Ruo also understands that Yinyings beings that low degree cultivators from the Mortal Domain cannot fight on their own even though there is Justice Affairs present.
Yes, the experts in the empire may be higher in number but with the restriction, it is still going to be a disadvantage. Add to the fact, that YinYings can just replenish their impure energy because of the smoke.
"We need to take action soon, else a lot will die. They do not want anyone else to leave the borders as well!" Sung Zhi Ruo explained with urgency. "The cultivators will eventually run out of spiritual energy. I have left a handful of replenis.h.i.+ng pill but that can be fully consumed anytime."
Some officers from the Justice Affairs also provided pills, but who knows how long it will take. Once the barrier disappears, Yinyings can then freely do what they please.
Ma Fei Hong looked at Gao Lan Mei, "What plan do you have?" She asked eventually when the deacon was not able to hear any response from Gao Lan Mei.
"I need to save myself first.." Gao Lan Mei suddenly asked with indifference, "Aside from my family, I really do not care if the rest dies."
