It was not until this morning that the middle-aged man received a report from the city guards that all living beings in Yong'an Town had disappeared. After confirming the news of such a big thing, he immediately assembled the city guards and rushed over, and at the same time sent someone to notify Tang Qin in Yunzhou City.
"Search the entire Yong'an Town carefully. Don't let go of even the slightest clue." Tang Qin said in a deep voice, looking at the dilapidated town.
"yes."
The middle-aged man responded and immediately ordered the city guards under his command to begin searching for clues with all their might. At one time, countless city guards poured into Yong'an Town.
"Commander, even though Yong'an Town was destroyed by the Corpse God Cult, there is no need for such a thorough search, right?" said the old man in green with a frown.
Yong'an Town has been massacred. The Chu Palace has many records about the No Corpse Blood Array. Even if we continue to search, we will not find any clues.
"The Corpse God Cult has been hiding in the dark for so many years. Why would they suddenly attack a small town within the empire?" Tang Qin said slowly.
The old man in green thought for a moment before speaking, "Perhaps it was because of the previous incident with the Blood Moon Hall. The Corpse-Free Blood Formation was destroyed, and the sect also sent strong men to eradicate the Blood Moon Hall, which resulted in the destruction of all the Corpse God Cult's arrangements in the Bright Moon Dynasty and the Holy Light Dynasty over the years. It's not surprising that they want to take this opportunity to retaliate against us."
"What you said is not impossible, but you forgot one thing, that is, the destroyed Blood Moon Hall is just an empty shell, and the ones who truly destroyed the Corpse Blood Formation are Yang Qi and Tianjian Sect. Even if they want to retaliate, the Corpse God Cult will be the first to find Yang Qi and Tianjian Sect. Isn't it a waste of time to anger the empire in this way?" Tang Qin said in a deep voice.
"this… "
Hearing Tang Qin's words, the old man in green couldn't help but fall silent. Indeed, even if the Corpse God Cult wanted to take revenge, they would choose Yang Qi first. Revenge on Yang Qi was much easier, but slaughtering a small town, and inside the Great Chu Empire, once discovered, the Corpse God Cult would not be able to escape unscathed even if they succeeded.
Doing this in itself is an extremely dangerous thing to do!
Tang Qin's eyes narrowed, and a sharp light flashed in them, "The Corpse God Cult is not just seeking revenge this time!"
"The Corpse God Cult has been destroyed for so many years, it is just lingering on, there is no need to be afraid." The green-clothed old man said lightly. For a hundred thousand years, the Corpse God Cult could only develop in secret. Although it has developed some power, who would be willing to follow a force that had long been destroyed and become an enemy of the super power of the entire continent
"I don't know what the top leaders of the Corpse God Cult are thinking, but this matter must be investigated in detail. I vaguely feel that the Corpse God Cult is afraid of death and will make some big moves recently." There was a hint of solemnity in Tang Qin's expression.
Hearing this, a hint of disapproval flashed across the face of the old man in green. The Corpse God Cult had been destroyed for so many years, so even if it had accumulated some strength in secret, it was nothing to worry about in the old man's opinion.
…
"After crossing the Qingqiu Mountains in front of us, we will enter the territory of Wujun." Yang Qi looked at the mountains in the distance and said secretly. After several days of travel, he was about to enter the territory of Wujun.
The Qingqiu Mountains are just a small mountain range, with a radius of only a few thousand miles. The monsters in it are not too strong. Because it is close to Wu County, many practitioners from Wu County come here to hone themselves.
Whoosh~
Yang Qi flew and moved quickly through the mountains and forests. This trip to Youyun County took him more than half a month.
"Boom~"
Just as Yang Qi was flying towards Wujun, a horrible noise suddenly came from the distant mountains and forests. Looking at the direction where the noise came from, he couldn't help but frown.
"High-level martial arts master?"
The noise of fighting could be heard so far away, so the people fighting were definitely not mid-level martial masters. Only high-level martial masters could unleash such a powerful force at such a long distance.
Although it was a bit strange that high-level martial masters would be fighting in the Qingqiu Mountains, Yang Qi had no intention of finding out the truth and continued on his way.
"Um?"
After a moment, Yang Qi suddenly discovered that a powerful aura appeared in his perception. Looking in the direction where the powerful aura came from, he could vaguely see a figure moving through the woods, slightly towards his location.
"Nine-star martial sect!"
Yang Qi's eyes focused, and as the powerful aura approached, he immediately sensed that the figure approaching was a powerful nine-star martial artist.
“I didn’t expect to meet the Nine-Star Martial Sect here.” Yang Qi shook his head and smiled. Although the Nine-Star Martial Sect was coming towards him, Yang Qi could feel that the opponent’s speed had slowed down. By the time the opponent arrived, the two sides had already staggered apart.
Whoosh~
In the distance, the figure became clearer and clearer. When the two sides passed each other, Yang Qi couldn't help but look over curiously. It was a burly middle-aged man. While Yang Qi was looking at him, the other party was also looking at Yang Qi.
Suddenly, the burly man flashed and rushed towards Yang Qi, laughing, "Haha~ Yang Qi, it's you, I didn't expect to meet you here!"
"Who are you?" Yang Qi was stunned, but he couldn't remember where he had seen the burly man in front of him.
"The one who wants you dead!"
The burly man smiled ferociously, and a terrible murderous intent surged from him. Then, a blood-red sword appeared in the burly man's hand.
Whoosh~
The burly man flashed and instantly appeared in front of Yang Qi. He swung the big knife in his hand, which turned into a blood-red blade and slashed towards Yang Qi.
“This is…” Feeling the evil and bloody smell contained in the incoming blade light, Yang Qi’s pupils shrank sharply. He looked at the burly man not far away and shouted coldly, “You are a member of the Corpse God Cult!”
As soon as the man made a move, Yang Qi discovered that the martial arts he practiced was exactly the same as that of Shangguan Fei who had performed the Incorruptible Blood Formation. That Shangguan Fei was a practitioner of the Corpse God Cult, so there was no need to explain the identity of the burly man in front of him!
clang~
The long sword shook and turned into a sharp sword light, meeting the falling blood-red knife light.
"Boom~"
The next moment, a terrifying loud noise came from the center of the sword, and a violent shock wave surged, and a terrifying force surged. The mountain forest with a radius of hundreds of feet was instantly shattered by the shock wave and turned into an open area.
"You really have some skills. No wonder Shangguan Fei failed in your hands." The burly man's eyes fell on Yang Qi, with a solemn look on his face.
"Are you also from the Blood Moon Hall?"
Yang Qi's expression was stern. The burly man knew Shangguan Fei and was most likely a practitioner of the Blood Moon Hall.
"You are not so stupid. I am the guardian of Blood Moon Hall, He Long!" The burly man grinned.
If it weren't for Yang Qi's destruction, the Blood Moon Hall would not have been forced to withdraw from the Bright Moon Dynasty and the Holy Light Dynasty. Although the two dynasties were in chaos, for the Blood Moon Hall, such a place was more suitable for the development of the Blood Moon Hall! (To be continued)
