When Ji Tianxing rushed to the guest hall, he saw a young man in a golden robe standing in the hall.
The young man in the golden robe was tall and straight. He had a handsome face and a noble temperament. He was the Son of Heaven, Long Yunxiao.
Long Yunxiao's back was facing the door as he stared at the painting on the wall. He was staring at the Mountain River Diagram in the painting, deep in thought.
Ji Tianxing walked into the main hall and stood behind Long Yunxiao, greeting him.
"May I know why the Son of Heaven is here tonight?"
Long Yunxiao came back to his senses and turned to look at Ji Tianxing, sizing him up calmly.
Seeing that he was safe and sound, Long Yunxiao raised his eyebrows and said in a playful tone, "You caused such a big commotion, but you're actually unharmed. How incredible!"
Ji Tianxing vaguely guessed something, but he didn't show it on his face. He pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Son of Heaven, what do you mean?"
Long Yunxiao glanced around and saw that there was no one else in the hall except for him and Ji Tianxing. He then said with a serious expression, "Alright, I won't keep you in suspense. Don't play dumb.
Let me ask you, the Duanmu Family's three herb gardens were destroyed and they suffered heavy losses. Was it your doing? "
Ji Tianxing neither admitted nor denied it. He looked at him calmly and asked, "Son of Heaven came to find me in the middle of the night just to ask about this?"
Long Yunxiao saw that his attitude was a little vigilant. He frowned and said in a deep voice, "I'm not here to seek justice for the Duanmu Family!
In recent years, the Duanmu Family has been acting arrogantly and wantonly dealing with the Yun Family. Their ambitions are clear as day.
You actually dared to do such an earth-shattering feat at this time and caused the Duanmu Family to suffer a heavy blow. I can't believe it.
I don't have any opinions about your actions. I even admire you.
However, the Duanmu Family's vitality has been greatly damaged and the balance between the three great families has been broken. This is something that the Imperial Court doesn't want to see. "
Ji Tianxing understood what he meant. He nodded and said calmly, "I don't know what the Imperial Court thinks. I only do what I think is right!"
"Only do what you think is right?" Hearing this, Long Yun Xiao raised his eyebrows, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.
He took a deep look at Ji Tianxing and thought to himself, "This guy's style of doing things is to do things his own way, without any taboos, completely ignoring the views and opinions of others.
This point coincides with this Monarch's thoughts. "
For some reason, the more Long Yunxiao understood Ji Tianxing, the more he liked him.
Long Yunxiao knew that it was useless to say more, so he said to Ji Tianxing, "Now that such a big thing has happened, the Duanmu Clan will definitely go crazy for revenge and kill you at all costs.
In the following period of time, you have to be careful. If you have any trouble that you can't solve, don't hesitate to look for me. I will definitely lend you a helping hand. "
After saying that, Long Yunxiao cupped his hands and took his leave.
Ji Tianxing nodded, cupped his hands and said, "Many thanks." Then he sent Long Yunxiao out of the hall.
After sending Long Yunxiao away, he returned to the secret room and continued to cultivate.
No matter what happened, he always placed cultivation as his number one priority.
The Duanmu Clan's herb garden was destroyed, and the situation in the Central State would definitely change greatly. There would definitely be more grudges and vendettas in the future.
Therefore, Ji Tianxing urgently needed to increase his strength, so that he could withstand the storm in the future and settle down.
…
Time passed quietly, and three days passed in a flash.
In these three days, the Central State could be said to be in turmoil.
There was a sensational and incomparably shocking news that was crazily spreading and spreading in the Central State.
In the depths of the Mang Gu Forest, the three herb gardens that the Duanmu Clan had built with all their strength were all destroyed overnight!
It was said that a mysterious expert attacked during the night and turned the three herb gardens into scorched earth and ruins. Not even a blade of grass grew!
Even the Ancient Mystical Beast that guarded the herb gardens of the Duanmu Clan was blasted into pieces!
Anyone who had heard of the Duanmu Clan knew that the Duanmu Clan was an ancient elixir family that controlled half of the herb business in the Central State.
The main reason why the Duanmu Clan could prosper for thousands of years without declining was because of the Mang Gu Forest and the four herb gardens.
The four herb gardens could provide an endless supply of herbs, allowing the Duanmu Clan to control the lifeline of the Central State's elixir market.
Now, the three herb gardens were destroyed, and the temporary storage of herbs was also destroyed.
This was definitely a fatal blow to the Duanmu Clan!
Anyone with a bit of common sense knew that the Duanmu Clan had lost the support of sufficient herbs. The clan's property and business would be greatly affected, and their power would definitely plummet!
When this news spread, it immediately spread to every city and village in the Central State. Even the common people were discussing it.
While everyone was shocked and in disbelief, they were also very puzzled.
Who exactly was that mysterious expert who destroyed the three herb gardens with one hand?
How powerful was he to be able to enter the three herb gardens so easily, kill countless experts and guards, and even kill the Ancient Mystical Beast?
How powerful was his backer that he dared to declare war on the Duanmu Clan?
Was it the other two great families, or some top force?
He used such a ruthless method to take the lives of the Duanmu Clan in one move. Was he not afraid of the Duanmu Clan's crazy revenge?
In an instant, the common people discussed endlessly, and made all kinds of wild guesses.
In the streets and alleys, all kinds of rumors and slanders were circulating. Everyone had different opinions, and no one could come to a conclusion.
The common people did not know the truth. Even if they made wild guesses and discussed, they could not come to a conclusion.
However, the various great clans and sects of the Central Continent had a more thorough understanding of the situation than the common people.
The experts of the various forces all believed that the mysterious expert's strength was extraordinary, and that he had the support of a powerful family or the Imperial Court. Otherwise, he would not dare to be so arrogant!
Everyone understood that the Duanmu Clan had met a strong enemy this time!
Not only was the other party powerful, he had no scruples and his methods were very ruthless.
After the Duanmu Clan suffered heavy losses, the other party would definitely make a follow-up move. He would take the opportunity to hit them when they were down and completely destroy the Duanmu Clan!
When the experts of the various forces analyzed this point, some people were worried for the Duanmu Clan, but more people were gloating over their misfortune.
Those powerful families and sects that had grudges with the Duanmu Clan were wild with joy and were ready to make a move.
The mysterious expert did what they wanted to do but did not dare to do. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them.
They seized the opportunity to add fuel to the fire and take revenge on the Duanmu Clan.
Therefore, many powerful families and sects were mobilizing their forces and manpower to secretly take revenge on the Duanmu Clan.
On the Central State, it looked peaceful on the surface, but in fact, there were turbulent undercurrents. Countless forces heard the news and were dragged into it.
