Wanyan Lie did not lay a hand on those two men.
He felt someone approaching and feared that it was the Judge of Fengdu up to some trickery.
The battle in Qianyuan Hall had forced him to reassess the strength of the Judge of Fengdu, but when he noticed the heavy footsteps and rapid breathing of the newcomers, Wanyan Lie knew they were mere mortals.
True masters and genuine cultivators alike had breaths that were long and continuous.
To Wanyan Lie, if a person could not sense the breath within their body, their capabilities were ultimately limited.
However, one person had fainted, while another knelt on the ground begging for mercy, talking about the Old Immortal of Black Mountain, which made Wanyan Lie feel astonished, "If you answer my questions properly, I won't eat you."
Seeing the other's fear, he decided to exploit it to coerce the truth out of them.
None of the people behind the sand dunes tried to stop him.
They were also desperate to understand the current situation.
