Just inside the main city of Yanzhou, the heavy rain kept washing the city. On the long street, a figure running for his life suddenly appeared.
His aura was unclear. He was obviously seriously injured. There was almost no intact part of his body. Blood was pouring out from several penetrating wounds. The most serious one was only half an inch away from being pierced. his heart.
Snapped!
Because his legs were also injured, his feet became weak and he fell into the rain again, but he got up hurriedly. He looked back from time to time, as if something terrifying was chasing him behind him.
However, behind him, the long street was completely empty, with not a single person at all.
Finally, when the man passed through the rain curtain, he came to the door of a mansion with the word "Ji Lei" hanging high.
Seeing these two words, he had a complicated expression on his face, but then he used all his strength and said loudly: "I am a member of the Ye family in Xiayanzhou! The murderer is causing trouble and killing people in the street. Please let the Lei Department decide!"
While chanting, he also took out a token that flashed with a faint blue light, which coincided with the plaque engraved with the word "Ji Lei".
Boom, boom!
A sound like a heartbeat echoed in the mansion.
The second part of the Wind and Thunder, the Wind part hunts down the murderer, and the Thunder part judges!
But the world only knows that wherever there is wind, there will be thunder. But few people know that if Lei Bu takes it out alone, the word "Extreme Thunder" is enough to scare the murderers of the Heaven-Devouring Holy Kingdom!
Lei Bu has the right to trial and execute people. To commit murder in the street is tantamount to violating Lei Bu's majesty.
Even if it’s someone from the Earth Department!
The man who claimed to be from the Ye family in Yanzhou had hopeful eyes. As the voice spread farther and farther, the blue light on the token in his hand suddenly became brighter, but his expression soon changed from expectation to disappointment.
And a hint of despair!
Because, he came to ask for help with an order from the Ministry of Thunder, but he did not receive any response.
Here... But Lei Bu's government office, even if Yanzhou's Fenglei Second Department has some minor problems, but now someone comes to ask for help with Lei Bu's order, Lei Bu doesn't even respond. This is abnormal!
Even an idiot can figure out that this is definitely not normal!
What's more, this man is not an idiot.
He was the 'hope' that the Ye family placed high hopes on to escape from those monsters and ask for help.
"Are you going to let the thugs kill people?"
Thinking of those lunatics who were besieging and killing members of the family, and the 'monster' who was wearing a purple sky crystal mask and seriously injured the family head with one blow, the man's expression changed from despair to anger, and he roared loudly in the rainy night.
Because he knew very well that if he had not moved back to recruit troops, the Ye family in Yanzhou would be doomed!
Boom!
at this time.
A dull voice broke through the rain curtain and reached the man's ears.
It sounded very similar to the voice of Lei Bu, but real despair emerged in the man's heart.
Boom... boom!
As the sound approached, the long street seemed to vibrate, and the accumulated rainwater rippled, becoming more turbulent than the waves created by the falling rain curtain.
Like... cracked.
I saw a shadow coming at the end of the long street.
The man turned his head and saw the shadow approaching, the despair in his eyes almost overflowing.
The true face of that shadow turned out to be a giant like an iron tower.
He was covered in gleaming iron armor and held an extremely exaggerated sword in his hand.
The other hand was holding a dead human head.
Sudden!
The giant raised his hand and threw the head out. The entire rain curtain seemed to be torn open. The head passed over the man's body and smashed the plaque with the word "Ji Lei" engraved on it.
And it's embedded there.
"Master!"
When the man saw clearly who the head once belonged to, his pupils trembled and he let out a shrill scream!
And his body went limp, completely paralyzed in the rain.
The most powerful grandmaster of the Ye family, a master in the late Mingyou period, was beheaded like this and could not sleep a wink until his death!
Boom, boom, boom.
The iron-tower-like giant approached step by step until he was beside the man. He stopped and looked down at the man.
Then he tapped the purple visor on his face, and a thunderous voice sounded: "Do you have any last words?"
The man woke up as if from a dream, raised his head, and looked up at the giant's visor.
Because there was a giant protecting him from the rain above his head, the rainwater turned around and splashed on both sides, stirring up countless waves, which gave him the illusion that the sky had cleared up after the rain.
No.
wrong.
The man suddenly smiled bitterly.
"The rain has passed... but the sky has not cleared up yet." He murmured in a low voice, his whole body was shrouded in the shadow of the giant, and finally said inexplicably: "How can a person like you be a land killer?"
"Aren't killers all silent and quietly completing their assassinations?"
bass!
The giant raised his exaggerated sword, half of which was still dragging on the ground, making a screeching sound.
His movements were extremely skillful, as if he had practiced them thousands of times, and there was a hint of mellowness to them.
Raising the sword horizontally, the giant hummed: "As long as you kill, it's enough, killer."
"Everyone is already dead, so why bother with how I kill you."
"yes."
The man nodded, glanced again at the 'Head of the Ye Family' who had smashed the Lei Department plaque, and said with a sad smile: "That makes sense!"
After that, he closed his eyes.
boom!
As the giant waved his sword, a loud sound broke out suddenly. The rainwater on the entire street was swept up by the air waves and spread in all directions, forming a short vacuum.
Clang.
When he put down his sword again, the air stagnated for a moment before the rain covered the street again.
Then, a bright red stained the hundreds of meters of standing water, and the man who had been paralyzed there had disappeared.
"Excessive force."
The giant stared at the blood stain on the door of the Lei Department on the right, which was no longer identifiable as something. He commented to himself and turned around silently to leave.
After he left, a team of unknown killers appeared from nowhere and quickly walked through the long street, braving the heavy rain, and took away all traces.
The same scene is happening everywhere in the main city of Yanzhou.
As the main city of Yanzhou, there are many big families living here. Even when this bloody storm started, some people had already reacted.
However, those big families were surprisingly silent, as if someone had blocked their mouths and fell into silence invariably.
The root cause of all this is that there are masters wearing black robes in each big family.
On their chests, the emblem of the Hou family was embroidered, representing the will of the first family in Yanzhou.
These grandmasters did not make any move, let alone attack anyone. They just stood there, silent and firm, exuding the coercion of a grandmaster and the unpretentious killing intent.
"What does the Hou family mean by this? Have you really taken refuge in Prince Yan's Mansion?"
Facing the oppression of the Hou family master, some people asked dissatisfiedly.
"The Hou family single-handedly suppressed us and watched helplessly as a massacre broke out in the land. Are you trying to betray the family class?"
Some people responded with murderous intent, trying to make the masters from the Hou family realize what they were doing now.
Helping the Yan Palace and the Ministry of Land to clean up the backbone of the aristocratic family class, this behavior has touched the bottom line of the aristocratic family class.
The current attitude of Prince Yan's Mansion is obviously to launch an all-out war and clear out the large number of middle-class families that can influence the situation of the war. The remaining top families, even if they are extremely capable, cannot launch a war.
Because compared to the number and strength of the Grandmaster, they are obviously inferior to Prince Yan's Mansion.
Even worse than the Hou family.
However, as the most powerful and oldest Hou family among them, they have already sided with the Yan Palace. What chance do they have of winning
"It seems that after the death of the Marquis, you are really timid."
At this moment, an old voice slowly sounded in the 'Nalan' mansion, causing the grandmaster guarding the mansion to frown.
He showed a fearful expression.
The Nalan family is also an ancient family.
Although not as powerful as the Hou family, the Nalan family is able to stand firm and become one of the top five wealthy families in Yanzhou. Naturally, it has its own uniqueness.
Their greatest confidence is that there are enough 'old people'.
Although in front of the Marquis, those old people were all juniors, but now that the Marquis is gone, the only seniors left in Yanzhou are the several masters of the Nalan family.
Even Hou Ba Ye and Hou Wu Ye, two 'old men' who were of the same generation as Hou Ye, did not live as long as them.
