In just a few moments, the large crowd of Jianghu people had vanished without a trace.
All that remained were Fang Shuwen's party, Leng Yanqiu and the Wu Hui siblings, and Xiao Ruofeng and the members of the Cangwu Sword Sect, who had just crept out of the Earth Palace.
However, the people from the Cangwu Sword Sect hadn't been idle.
Earlier, when Fang Shuwen killed Gu Panxi, a group of disciples from the Joyful Zen Temple and the Flower Moon Sect had also found their way here.
The Jianghu people present had been so intimidated by Fang Shuwen that they were completely frozen, not daring to make a move.
The members of those two sects had wanted to sneak away, but with Chen Yan blocking their path, they hadn't dared to cause a commotion and draw Fang Shuwen's attention.
They had considered hiding in the outer areas of the Earth Palace, but before they could, the Cangwu Sword Sect had arrived.
