Ms. Doctor Divine

As he contemplated this, the Head of the Undead Race began to feel a profound sense of relief. The burden of guilt that had weighed him down earlier had now lifted, and he found himself with an unexpected urge to laugh.

Gu Chaoyan, observing his sudden change in demeanor, was puzzled and couldn’t quite grasp the source of his worries.

Unbeknownst to her, the Head of the Undead Race continued to chuckle, his mood lightening with each passing moment.

Meanwhile, the Supreme Sect made the decision to return to their headquarters. They had no objections to Gu Chaoyan’s proposal to allow Di Hongyun to cultivate on Wuyuan Island. After all, she had played a pivotal role in resolving the situation on the island, earning her the goodwill of the Elder Men. Consequently…

With the exception of Di Hongyun, Lv Zhengyang, and Yuan Jia, the remaining disciples embarked on their journey back to the sect.

Upon their return, they immediately began preparations for the mission to Xuhai City. Each sect was tasked with providing 400 inner sect disciples and 600 outer sect disciples for the mission. The selection of these disciples required careful consideration.

The Supreme Sect was composed of six schools, and it was not uncommon for the Monster Controller Sect to have a significant number of disciples on missions. However, dispatching too many disciples at once could leave the school vulnerable, and any opportunistic threat could inflict severe damage.

To address this concern, Elder Lin opted for a principle of equality when selecting disciples. This balance rule ensured that each sect had a roughly equal number of disciples participating in missions, thus maintaining stability within the sect. In case of any unforeseen emergencies, the sects could continue to function smoothly.

However, even within this framework of balance, the Beastmaster Sect still had a greater representation.

So, there were a total of 60 inner sect disciples and 100 outer sect disciples from the other five sects, with the remaining disciples hailing from the Beast-controlling Sect.

Gu Chaoyan was a part of the special team and was not included in the headcount.

Elder Men representing the major sects selected the candidates for the mission, and all selected candidates were assembled outside the school grounds.

Together, they embarked on their journey towards Xuhai City.

In the absence of Di Hongyun, Gu Chaoyan’s demeanor grew noticeably more subdued. There was no longer any commotion around her.

For a moment, she found herself struggling to adjust to the newfound quietness. She cast her gaze over the gathering troops and then turned to the Head of the Undead Race, speaking softly, “Do you think we can effectively deal with the Undead Race in Xuhai City with so many people?”

The Head of the Undead Race paused for a moment before responding, “There are plenty of us, and as long as they aren’t completely inept, they should be up to the task. From my observations, there are at most 500 Undead Race members in Xuhai City, while we have 1,000 just within the Supreme Sect alone. It should be more than sufficient. In fact, it’s almost excessive. That woman from the Grand Unity Sect appears overly confident and self-assured, amassing such a large force just for taking control of Xuhai City. Those unaware might suspect she has ulterior motives.”

The Head of the Undead Race analyzed the situation with an air of indifference.

In his perspective…

The Undead Race in Xuhai City had likely faced substantial setbacks. There was no cause for undue concern, which explained their leisurely conversation.

Gu Chaoyan nodded in agreement, relieved that nothing unexpected had arisen.

“Now that everyone is present, let’s proceed to Xuhai City without further delay!” Elder Lin declared..
