For an entire day and night, Tianfeng City was shrouded in a haze.
The people in the city were anxious and the six forces were on high alert. The atmosphere was heavy and depressing.
Even though the ordinary people did not know what had happened.
But there were rumors in the Princess's Mansion and the five families.
It was said that the Princess and the Sir God experts of the five families were killed outside the city last night.
This news was like a bolt from the blue to the ordinary people.
The Princess was killed?
At this moment … the sky of Tianfeng City had fallen!
Which Divine Emperor was so daring as to assassinate a County Lord?
Wasn't this going against the Bloody Flame Kingdom?
They had to report this to the King and ask him to punish the murderer!
The first thought that came to the people's minds was shock and indignation.
But then, they felt that something was amiss.
If the Princess was killed in the Princess's Mansion, it could be said that it was a premeditated assassination.
But why did the Princess die in the wilderness outside the city?
Also, why did the five great aristocratic families also send out Divine Lord powerhouses, each leading a hundred masters?
Why were the six forces working together?
There must be something fishy going on. It was not as simple as it seemed!
Therefore, many of the common people developed their imaginations to make wild guesses and analyze the reasons.
In a short period of time, all kinds of strange reasons and reasons were spread among the people.
There were also some people who were trying to please the crowd. Not only did they come up with absurd reasons, they also described the process vividly, as if they had experienced it themselves.
Just like that, one wonderful story after another began to spread in Tianfeng Province.
The Commandery Princess's Residence and the five aristocratic families were also shrouded in darkness.
The people's shock and indignation towards the death of the Princess gradually turned into curiosity and onlookers.
Everyone thought that the King would be furious after such a big thing had happened in Tianfeng City.
Just wait and see, the show is about to start!
But the reaction of the Princess's Mansion and the five families was different from the people.
The six forces closed their doors and kept quiet.
No one came out to explain, and no one showed up.
They were all hiding in their own mansions. While they were on guard, they were secretly packing up their belongings and preparing to leave the city and escape.
The people did not know the inside story, but they knew very well.
The Commandery Princess and the five aristocratic families had teamed up to ambush the Qi family's Minister Tianxing and kill him in the Wilderness.
Unexpectedly, their plan failed.
Not only did he fail to kill Tianxing, but he was also beaten to a pulp.
The seven Sir God experts, including the princess, had all lost their lives in the wilderness. Not even a complete corpse was left.
This was simply too terrifying!
The people from the six great powers couldn't help but wonder how powerful Tianxing was.
He was most likely one of the best among the High Divine Lords, right?
An expert at this level was enough to run amok in the Bloodflame Divine Kingdom!
The most frightening thing was …
Seven Sir Gods and more than six hundred experts had been killed, but they hadn't seen Tianxing's true face until their deaths.
No one was sure whether Tianxing had reached the Wilderness or not.
Was he the one who killed the seven Monarchs of Gods and the many experts?
These were all mysteries!
The princess, six Divine Monarchs, and more than six hundred experts had all died without knowing why!
Thinking of this, the people from the six major forces became even more terrified.
They all knew that once Tianxing started his revenge and sneaked into Tianfeng City, no one would be able to stop him!
He could track them down and kill them all!
Therefore, everyone was on tenterhooks and their hearts were filled with despair and sadness.
Fortunately …
The gloomy and torturous day had finally passed.
Until the next morning, when the sun rose.
The two city gates of Tianfeng City still showed no signs of being invaded.
The people from the six major forces didn't decrease and no one was attacked.
At this moment, everyone was slightly relieved.
"It seems that Tianxing doesn't want to take revenge on us?"
"It's been one day and two nights and Tianxing hasn't appeared. He should have left Tianfeng City."
"That's right! He killed so many people in one breath. This news must have shocked the entire Divine Kingdom.
If he doesn't escape quickly, he will be caught soon. "
"Although Tianxing killed the princess and so many experts, there is a limit to his strength.
I guess he is seriously injured and doesn't dare to take revenge. He must have hidden away to heal himself. "
The experts of the six major forces had all sorts of thoughts, and they were all secretly guessing.
Late in the morning.
The six major forces sent a large number of guards to the Wilderness to clean up the battlefield and collect the corpses and belongings of the experts.
That night, the five major families held a simple memorial ceremony.
There was a mourning hall set up in the main hall to pay respects to the princess, Earl Qishan.
At the same time, the princess's residence issued an obituary and submitted a document to the king to punish Tianxing severely.
For the next three days.
The princess's residence was filled with incense and cries.
Countless people, squires, and celebrities came to pay respects to the princess.
Everyone looked sad and indignant, hoping that the king would catch the murderer soon and give the princess an explanation.
Even the heads of the five major families came to pay their respects.
Even though many people knew that the princess would die in vain, they knew that the princess would die in vain.
The princess's residence claimed that the murderer was Tianxing, but they couldn't produce any evidence.
Even if the king wanted to protect the reputation of the Divine Kingdom and give the princess an explanation, he couldn't arrest people for no reason.
However, the princess was a Earl of the Divine Kingdom and a high official in charge of a region.
After she was killed, a memorial ceremony would be held and a dignified explanation would be given.
If the princess's residence kept silent and acted as if nothing had happened, that would be the biggest joke!
Although the five major families each lost a Senior God and hundreds of experts.
However, this loss was still within an acceptable range.
Even if they knew that the murderer was Tianxing, they could only suffer in silence and give up.
They couldn't continue to chase after Tianxing, right?
What if they angered him and he slaughtered their entire family?
Wouldn't that be an even more unjust death?
The heads of the five major families were all thinking about the aftermath.
They were all ambitious and had their eyes on the princess's position.
Earl Qishan was already dead.
The princess's position couldn't be empty, right?
The king liked to act according to the situation and would most likely choose a princess to take charge of the affairs of the Tianfeng County.
In this way, the five major families all had a chance!
Didn't the king do this when the Qingshan City Lord was killed?
So.
After the five major families paid their respects to the princess, they all started to take action.
They gathered the power of their families in the Tianfeng County and secretly started to compete.
The small ones included a few shops, a few workshops, and a few courtyards.
The big ones included a few hundred slaves and guards, a street, a valley, a mine …
These were all things that the five major families fought over.
When Earl Qishan was still alive, these things belonged to the common people, other small forces, or the princess's residence.
But now, the five major families didn't care about their relatives and were unscrupulous.
Everyone wanted to seize more resources and grasp more authority.
Soon, they would have a greater chance of winning the princess's position!
Just like this, the internal strife in the Tianfeng County began.
