The Master of Qing Yue Hall was not afraid of Marshal Zuo, nor did he feel sorry for the nine hundred or so Divine Kings who had sacrificed their lives.
After all, the Qing Yue Hall had two hundred thousand citizens, and most of them were Divine Kings and Divine Emperors. As long as they cultivated peacefully for a few hundred years, a large number of Divine Kings would be born.
The Master of Qing Yue Hall only felt that the situation had escalated.
In the beginning, he had expected the battle to reach this stage, and the outcome would be decided.
Even if the battle could not be decided, they could not continue. They had to find a way to stop it.
If the situation continued to develop, it would definitely go out of control and turn into an all-out war.
Therefore, the Master of Qing Yue Hall gathered the Guardians and Elders. After much consideration, they finally decided to report the situation to the Kongming Temple.
In a situation where neither side was willing to admit defeat, the Kongming Temple could only mediate and make a reasonable decision.
However, doing so made it seem like they were going to tell their parents if they could not win.
However, the Qing Yue Hall was not a force that liked to fight. They did not want to see more of their citizens die in a war, so they had to do this.
The two Guardians and a few Elders were not convinced. They angrily suggested that they should bring another one thousand Divine Kings to end the battle once and for all.
They wanted to kill or capture the thousands of soldiers involved in the battle to win the battle.
Of course, they had to be fast and not give Marshal Zuo a chance to send reinforcements.
However, the Master of Qing Yue Hall firmly rejected these suggestions. He said that this was not a good idea and that there was a great risk involved.
The Mount of the Seven Moons was only a hundred thousand miles away from the Hannya Fleet. If they sent another one thousand Divine Kings as reinforcements, it would be difficult for the Hannya Fleet to not notice.
If that happened, Marshal Zuo would send another ten thousand soldiers to join the battle in a fit of anger. If that happened, the battle would never end.
The two Guardians and a few Elders knew that the Master of Qing Yue Hall had made up his mind. They did not try to persuade him any further. They could only agree with the Master of Qing Yue Hall's decision.
Therefore, the Master of Qing Yue Hall took out three special communication jade slips and prepared to report the situation to the Second Hall Master, Third Hall Master, and Fifth Hall Master.
Even though he had already prepared a draft in his mind, he still had to explain the ins and outs of the whole matter clearly. Moreover, he had to consider the wording carefully and strictly.
Therefore, when he reported the situation to the three Palace Masters, he had to treat it seriously. It would take at least forty-five minutes.
…
Ji Tianxing hid in the dark and listened to the conversation between the Master of Qing Yue Hall, the Protectors, and the Elders.
When he saw the Master of Qing Yue Hall take out a communication jade slip to report the situation to the three Hall Masters, he quietly left the study.
It was impossible for him to attack the Master of Qing Yue Hall, the protectors, and the elders. He could only create chaos in Seven Moons Mountain and make the situation completely out of control before the three Hall Masters received the news.
Ji Tianxing first found a densely populated street in Floating City. He secretly slashed out a sword light that blotted out the sky and covered the area.
The street was filled with teahouses and taverns. There were more than a thousand citizens of Qing Yue Hall gathered in the various teahouses and taverns, cursing the Hannya Fleet with righteous indignation.
The sudden appearance of the sword light caught everyone off guard. They did not have time to escape before they were drowned by the sword light.
"Rumble!"
A deafening boom rang out, reverberating in the sky and waking up the hundreds of thousands of people in the city.
The huge impact destroyed the buildings and courtyards on the entire street, turning dozens of houses into ruins.
Dust flew everywhere as cries and screams rang out, turning the entire street into a mess.
The scene looked very chaotic, infuriating, and shocking.
But in reality, the number of casualties was not as high as imagined.
Ji Tianxing's control over his power had reached the pinnacle. When the hundreds of sword lights slashed down, they only destroyed the entire street and created a huge commotion.
In reality, only about 400 of the thousand citizens of Qing Yue Hall were injured. The death toll was only about 30.
This result could provoke the citizens of Qing Yue Hall and make them angry and crazy.
But it would not cause too many casualties and arouse the suspicions of the Master of Qing Yue Hall and the others.
If he flattened the entire street with one move and killed hundreds of citizens of Qing Yue Hall, as long as the Master of Qing Yue Hall was not stupid, he would definitely be suspicious.
Just what kind of expert could have such terrifying power?
The casualties in front of them matched the combat strength of a peak Divine King.
After flattening the entire street with one move, countless citizens screamed and rushed out of the ruins. They fled in all directions and screamed for help in panic.
The patrolling guards around the city also chased after them. They surrounded the ruined street to search for the culprit and treat the injured.
Of course, the news shocked the entire city and immediately spread to Qing Yue Divine Palace.
The Master of Qing Yue Hall was deliberating on how to report the situation to the Kongming Temple.
Suddenly, he learned that a street in the city was destroyed and more than 1,000 citizens were attacked. He immediately put down his communication jade slip and rushed over with a few Elders to check the situation.
Reporting the situation to the Temple Masters of Kongming Temple was secondary.
Checking the casualties of the citizens and finding the culprit immediately was the most important thing.
"Too arrogant, too arrogant. They don't take me seriously at all!"
When the Master of Qing Yue Hall rushed to the ruined street, his face was livid. Blue veins popped out in anger, and his whole body was filled with a chilling aura.
The Elders were also filled with righteous indignation. They gnashed their teeth in hatred, and their bodies were filled with a strong killing intent.
"Those bastards, they deserve to die!
We have always abided by the bottom line, but they sent experts to sneak into our city and attack our citizens.
They have no bottom line and are cruel and violent! "
"Those bastards of the Prajna Fleet, do they want to go to war and perish together?"
Everyone cursed angrily and rushed to the ruined street as fast as they could.
When they saw the scene of devastation, the corpses scattered in the ruins, and the hundreds of injured citizens, their anger became more and more difficult to control.
Five hundred guards had already surrounded the ruins, and three hundred guards were treating the injured.
After the Master of Qing Yue Hall and the Elders arrived, they immediately ordered the city to be locked down and the defense array to be activated.
All the guards and deacons had to be mobilized. Even if they had to turn the entire city upside down, they had to find the culprit!
The Elders searched the ruined street but did not find any trace of the culprit.
Therefore, they advised the Master of Qing Yue Hall, "Hall Master, the facts are in front of us. Do we still need to investigate?
Even if the culprit has already gone into hiding and we can't catch him for the time being, there is no doubt about it.
It must be Marshal Zuo who sent people to do it! "
"That's right! Other than those bastards of the Prajna Fleet, who else has a grudge against us?
Who would sneak into Floating City at this time and kill our citizens? "
"Hall Master, please give the order to allow us to gather 3,000 elites and charge into the Prajna Fleet's camp. We will make them admit their crimes!"
