In the dense mountain forest, the sound of footsteps grew increasingly urgent.
Kong Sen gazed at the Celestial Heart Sect members before him, a look of satisfaction on his face.
Chen Danian had made no progress.
Left with no choice, he had to personally lead his men to hunt down the Celestial Heart Sect demons.
For Kong Sen to have become the Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites—a highly lucrative post—and now a high-ranking regional official, he naturally had some ability.
After more than ten days of searching, he had finally gotten one step ahead of the Celestial Heart Sect, setting an ambush in a village and wiping out the cultists responsible for the massacre in one fell swoop.
He had even killed their strongest member with his own hands.
Now, only the battered remnants of their force were left.
Soon, all of them were killed, except for two Celestial Heart Sect cultists who escaped into the forest.
