Grey Ash city, a small city located in the western section of the Earth province. It was a small city yet it housed a large number of cultivators in any ordinary day. The reason for the bustling crowd was it's location as it lied between the Yellow stone city and the Jade harmony city. Being located between the two biggest cities of the Earth province, it never had shortage of cultivators who were travelling between the two largest cities.

The always bustling city appeared half ruined when Zhan Chen, Shui Liying and the Xuantian sect cultivators reached the periphery of the Grey ash city. Few cultivators couldn't beleive their eyes as they observed the Grey ash city from a distance.

"Just what kind of battle they have fought?", a cultivator muttered.

"To think, it is damaged to such an extent! It must be a fierce battle", the cultivator right to him muttered. They had already experienced a terrific war in the Yellow stone city but the city had not received much damage in that battle. It was their first time to see such devastation of a prosperous city.

A cultivator flew out from the Grey ash city and approached Shui Liying and Zhan Chen. The Xuantian sect cultivators immediately recognised him when the cultivator got closer. The cultivator was Yang Yukong, the powerful peak master of the Sword peak.

"Junior sister, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you", Yang Yukong spoke as he stopped near the flying treasure of Shui Liying.

"Senior brother, why are you here? I don't know that you are coming to the Grey ash city", Shui Liying exclaimed.

"Well, I can't sit still after hearing the news. We have already lost enough. I don't want to repeat such mistakes again", Yang Yukong replied.

"Please follow me to the city. Your presence is very much required here. More than our Xuantian sect, it was the Lu clan who needs your help the most", Yang Yukong added further. A frown appeared on Zhan Chen's face after he heard the word Lu clan.

"Liying, let's take a look. I ought to help the Lu clan if they are in some sort of trouble", Zhan Chen sent a mental communication to Shui Liying.

"Senior brother, please lead the way", Shui Liying spoke to Yang Yukong. Both she and Zhan Chen followed after Yang Yukong as they entered the Grey ash city.

Once a prosperous city now appeared ruined to Shui Liying and Zhan Chen's eyes. They could see the devastation from afar but after getting closer, they got to witness the vivid picture of utter devastation. High rising buildings were reduced to rubbles, the tall wall surrounding the city had crumbled in place to place. There were battle scars all over the walls which showed how fierce the battle was.

Yang Yukong brought Shui Liying and Zhan Chen to the city lord's mansion. It was located in the middle of the Grey ash city. Currently, it was the acting base of the Xuantian sect.

"Look, senior Liying is here", the Xuantian sect disciples who were guarding the mansion murmured among themselves after Shui Liying, Zhan Chen and Yang Yukong came closer. All the disciples bowed their heads to show their respect to Shui Liying.

Shui Liying merely nodded her head as she followed after Yang Yukong. Yang Yukong brought them inside and led them to a hall where the higher echelons of the Xuantian sect were getting treated.

"Girl, you are finally here", a stout old man who was being treated in the middle of the hall spoke. He had long beard and all of his hair was completely while. There was numerous scars across his bare body but he didn't seem to be bothered by his injuries. Rather a smile appeared on his face when he saw Shui Liying.

"Senior Shi, are you alright?", Shui Liying quickly walked towards the old man after noticing him in the middle. There was a graceful looking woman who was treating the stout old man. She immediately bowed her head after seeing Shui Liying.

"Peak master, please take a look at senior Shi. He is poisoned during his battle with the devil emperors", the graceful looking woman spoke. She moved to the side as Shui Liying approached the stout looking old man.

"Let me have a look", Shui Liying spoke. The stout looking old man nodded his head and let Shui Liying check his body condition.

"Zhan Chen, he is senior Bo Shi. He generally stays outside the sect. So, it is natural for current generation sect disciples to not recognise him", Yang Yukong introduced the stout old man to Zhan Chen. Zhan Chen could see that the old man, Bo Shi was a fifth stage emperor realm expert.

"Thanks to heaven, the poison has not seeped into your internal organs. Otherwise, it would be a difficult task to heal you completely", Shui Liying murmured after checking the body of Bo Shi.

"Girl, I know I would be cured. As long as we have a talented girl like you, I don't have any worry", Bo Shi spoke with a smile.

"Now, take a look at others. They are the ones who have received the most injuries", Bo Shi pointed towards two beds where an old man and a middle aged man were lying. Both of them were Xuantian sect elders who were grievously injured during their battle with the devils.

"Senior, excuse me. Can I leave and check upon the Lu clan?", Zhan Chen tilted his head and asked Yang Yukong.

"Do as you wish", Yang Yukong replied. Zhan Chen sent a mental communication to Shui Liying before walking out of the hall. He didn't know what happened to Lu clan but he was determined to help them if it was anything under his capability.

Lu clan was an age-old ally of the Zhan clan. Moreover, they came to his rescue when he was in a vulnerable state after fighting the expert of the Heavenly sword sect. They protected him untill the end of the Grand sect competetions. So, Zhan Chen was determined to help them in their hour of need. Relationship between their clans aside, he was currently connected to Lu clan through Lu Mingxi. It was completely natural for him to help the clan from where his woman had come from.

"Excuse me, do you know where the Lu clan is residing?", Zhan Chen asked a female disciple who was guarding outside the hall.

The female disciple was taken aback for a moment as Zhan Chen approached her. During her long stay in the Xuantian sect, she had never seen someone as handsome as Zhan Chen.

She quickly recovered from her surprise and nodded her head. "Little brother, I know where they are residing", she replied.

"Can you take me there?", Zhan Chen asked politely.
