Church's raids on the Crimson Cult & Lady Xia's depraved craving

During the same period, the Church of Divine Light carried out a series of well-coordinated raids on three Crimson Cult hideouts.

The Church forces displayed impressive combat skills and managed to defeat four King Realm experts of the Crimson Cult.

Out of those four, two were captured alive.

Additionally, the Church successfully apprehended nearly thirty more members of the Crimson Cult, who had lower cultivation levels. Hong Meilin had played a critical role in capturing them as easily swept the floor with them.

However, just when the Church officials were about to interrogate the prisoners, they noticed something was off.

All of the captives were writhing in pain, their bodies covered in sweat, and their eyes bulging out.

The cause of their agony soon became apparent: each of them had ingested a mysterious poison that had started to take effect.
