The thick dark cloud hanging over Golden Scale Town began to disappear slowly, and the early morning sun pierced through the clouds, shining on them.
With no threat in sight, the totem returned to its dormant state and flew to Caleb Li's hands.
Soldiers and disciples began to chant Caleb Li's name. They knew that without him, their destruction was imminent.
What happened next was attending to the injured. As for the death toll, it was too great to count.
Various halls took their injured and dead disciples back to their halls. The dead bodies of the Dark Beasts were left for the common people to gather.
