The Danqian Palace disciples listened with shock, their faces growing paler by the moment.
Danqian Palace had been shattered! Aside from themselves, there were almost no survivors from the sect! Even the Palace Master,
It wasn't just Danqian Palace — the entire Myriad Phenomena Region had been torn apart. Sects large and small had all been attacked, virtually annihilated by the Red Cauldron Central Region.
In other words, every last one of them was now a homeless wandering soul, and they had no way of knowing whether their sect leaders were dead or alive.
A wave of boundless desolation surged through their hearts, and the faces of many showed a glimmer of despair.
The only thing they could count as fortunate was that they were still alive — a hundred times luckier than the fellow disciples who had perished.

Seeing Shen Sanhuo's gesture, the other disciples were momentarily taken aback. But they quickly came to their senses. At a time like this, if
Make a foothold in the Radiant King City? With just these people? Even Shen Sanhuo hadn't broken through to the Saint Realm — his cultivation was merely at the eighth level of the Origin Realm.
With such strength, their standing in the Radiant King City would be nothing more than third or fourth rate. Even if they sought to join another power, they would never be taken seriously.
After all, even within Danqian Palace, they hadn't been among the very top. Aside from Shen Sanhuo, the rest were merely second-rate among the sect's disciples.
As for the first-rate ones — some had died, some had fled. With the exception of

Among the others,
His situation was somewhat different from Shen Sanhuo's.
When Shen Sanhuo put the question to him,
