Feng Xun was a consecrated of the Tao Family. He was a Plant Master who had lived in the wilderness for a long time. He didn't have many achievements, but his foundation was very solid.
A Plant Master like Feng Xun was looked down upon by the big clans. Feng Xun's fighting strength wasn't very good, and his achievements in plant research weren't that great. In this case, he could only join a small clan like the Tao Family.
However, Feng Xun actually had another identity that no one knew about. He was actually a bandit and had been a bandit for a long time. But one time, after they robbed, they found out that they were robbing the Royal Family's things. Moreover, they were being tracked by the Saber Guards. This scared them to death. They immediately disbanded their bandit group and ran away.
Other people might run to other places and become bandits, but Feng Xun didn't want to be a bandit anymore. He wanted to live a peaceful life, so he joined the Tao Family and became a plant master. Although he wasn't the best consecrator in the Tao Family, his treatment wasn't bad. He didn't have to worry about food and drink, and he didn't have to worry about any trouble.
Naturally, he also saved a lot of money while he was a bandit. However, he didn't plan to use it. He wanted to live in the Tao Family for a few years before finding a good woman to marry and have a child. Then he would leave the money to his child or use it to raise his child.
Although his life had become comfortable, his heart didn't relax. He always maintained a trace of vigilance, afraid that the Saber Guard would come knocking on his door one day.
Moreover, he was a Plant Master. His natural energy was very resistant to drugs. Therefore, when Feng Xun saw Zhao Hai enter the courtyard, he immediately noticed Zhao Hai.
Just as he spoke, Zhao Hai had already rushed into the house. Zhao Hai had a scimitar in his hand. Before Feng Xun could react, the scimitar had already chopped off Feng Xun's head.
However, Feng Xun's shout also alarmed the other people. Even the people in the other courtyards were alarmed by him. Naturally, Zhao Hai wouldn't be polite. He didn't say anything as he started to kill people one by one. One by one, the Tao Family members died under his blade.
Afterwards, the Tao Family's people also noticed that something was wrong. They noticed that there was movement, but there was no movement in the front yard. Moreover, there were many people in the Tao Family who didn't move at all. This was clearly wrong. Afterwards, the Tao Family's people discovered that everyone in the Tao Family had been drugged.
This discovery made the people of the Tao Family break out in cold sweat. Those who sobered up immediately went to meet Zhao Hai. They were prepared to kill Zhao Hai while the others went to save the others. Zhao Hai's expression changed as he looked at Zhao Hai.
At this time, Zhao Hai also made his move. The Devil Plants, Animals, Jade Dolls, all of them moved. In just a moment, the Tao family became very lively.
However, the area of the Tao Family's residence was too big. The front yard, which was the largest area, didn't have any movement. Therefore, the people in the vicinity didn't notice anything unusual.
At this time, Zhao Hai didn't care about anything else. He was going all out to kill, using his fastest speed. This kind of experience was nothing to Zhao Hai. So what if he destroyed a family? He had destroyed several realms, not to mention a family.
Tao Xianwang also woke up. He was the Patriarch of the Tao Family. He might not be the strongest person in the Tao Family, but his strength was definitely among the top. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to command the other people of the Tao Family. After all, in the Soul Realm, one had to rely on strength to speak.
Tao Xianwang led the experts of the family to meet Zhao Hai. When they arrived at Zhao Hai's courtyard, there was no one left alive. Tao Xianwang looked at the disciples of the Tao Family in the courtyard. His eyes were blood red as he stared at Zhao Hai. Although he hadn't seen Zhao Hai, he was able to recognize him from Zhao Hai's figure. Zhao Hai's figure was too special, it was hard to not recognize him.
Tao Xianwang looked at Zhao Hai, then he clenched his teeth and said, "Crane Field Grass? I didn't expect you to really come. You dare to kill the disciples of my Tao Family? Go to hell! "After saying that, he led the experts of the family and pounced on Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai looked at Tao Xianwang's appearance and snorted coldly. He waved the curved blade in his hand and charged towards Tao Xianwang. He didn't make a sound from the beginning to the end. He didn't want to leave any evidence for others to use against him.
Tao Xianwang and the others were indeed powerful, but they had not reached the Consolidating Equipment Stage yet. As such, even with the few of them surrounding Zhao Hai, Zhao Hai didn't feel much pressure.
He didn't even take out his most common weapon, the Bullhead Drum, instead using the curved blade. When Zhao Hai reached the few of them, he cut down one of them with a single blow. Then, with a wave of his hand, a green light flashed in the sky, and Tao Xianwang's head was chopped off. This Tao Family Leader who had wanted to kill Zhao Hai just moments ago had died so mysteriously at Yu Wa's hands. The most tragic thing was that the others hadn't even noticed, as Yu Wa's speed was just too fast.
With Yu Wa's help, the few Tao Family experts were quickly killed off by Zhao Hai's men. As for the rest of the Tao Family members, most of them were also dead. After all, the Devil Evolved Plants that Zhao Hai had released were not to be trifled with.
However, Zhao Hai did not stop, continuing to hunt down the Tao Family members. The Tao Family was just a medium sized family, but they had quite a large number of people. However, Zhao Hai had already killed many of them, and there weren't many left.
Unknowingly, it was already two in the morning. At this time, there wasn't a single living person left in the Tao Family. No, to be honest, there wasn't a single living thing left.
Zhao Hai carefully inspected the Tao Family's situation. After confirming that there really wasn't anything left, he went to the Tao Family's treasury and took all of the most valuable things. Everything that could be placed in the soul item space was placed there. As for the things that couldn't be placed in the soul item space, he took the most valuable, the lightest, and the least hindered by movement.
Then he left the Tao Family and went to the Zhou Family. Dealing with the Zhou Family was even easier. The Zhou Family didn't have any experts, and those people were like children in front of Zhao Hai. It was too easy for Zhao Hai to deal with them. In less than two hours, Zhao Hai had already dealt with all of the Zhou Family members.
After dealing with the people of the Zhou Family, he took away all the valuable things of the Zhou Family. Then, he returned to the Tao Family and found the secret passage in one of the rooms of the Tao Family.
The Tao Family's secret passage was discovered by the insects. Humans might not be able to discover it, but the insects were able to. After Zhao Hai entered the secret passage, he chased after the insects. After walking for about an hour, he finally came out of the passage.
The exit of the secret passage was a small village. It looked very ordinary, but this village was very close to Forest City. Moreover, it was located in a small valley, making it very hidden.
When Zhao Hai came out of the secret passage, he was immediately discovered. The people in the village immediately panicked. Zhao Hai didn't hold back and killed everyone in the village. He also killed everything that was alive and breathing. Then he had the plants help him keep it a secret. After that, he left the village and didn't stop at all as he rushed towards the Academy.
The next morning, the residents of Forest City opened their doors early as if it was an ordinary day. Then they began their day's work. People simply didn't know what happened last night. Su Ming also came in.
He was a clerk of Forest City. What he did every day was to record the various government decrees of Forest City. This position wasn't very conspicuous, but it was the position closest to the City Lord. He was naturally very familiar with Tao Xianwang, but he wasn't a member of the Tao Family. He wasn't a servant of the Tao Family, nor was he a child of the Tao Family. He was one of the few members of a small family who could work in the government office. In fact, the relationship between the Su Family and the Tao Family wasn't bad. Later on, the Tao Family became rich while the Su Family slowly declined. The reason Su Ming could become a clerk was because his father shamelessly begged Tao Xianwang. Tao Xianwang had always looked down on Su Ming.
Su Ming also knew that Tao Xianwang looked down on him. In fact, he also looked down on Tao Xianwang. No one knew better than him how the Tao Family became rich. The Tao Family gave the most beautiful woman in the family to a secret envoy sent by the Imperial Family. Then, they relied on the Imperial Family. To be honest, Su Ming really looked down on a family like the Tao Family.
But there was nothing he could do. At this time, he couldn't eat bitterness. He was still a lowly clerk, and a clerk who got in through the back door. In his eyes, that shameless person was the mayor of a city. This was life.
Every day, Su Ming would arrive at Lin City's government office before Tao Xianwang. Lin City's government office wasn't in the same place as the Tao Family, so Tao Xianwang also had to come to the government office every day to work.
After Su Ming arrived at the government office, he prepared according to his daily routine while waiting for Tao Xianwang's arrival. Although Su Ming couldn't see Tao Xianwang, he still agreed with Tao Xianwang on one thing, and that was that Tao Xianwang would come to the government office on time every day to work. This was pretty good. Although Tao Xianwang's process of working was also a process of him enjoying power, at the very least, he did a pretty good job when it came to handling some matters. For the commoners at the lowest level, he was pretty good. Although he increased the taxes, he didn't increase them by too much. This was already pretty good.
Slowly, Su Ming felt that something wasn't right. He raised his head and looked at the sky. It was already late. Why hadn't Tao Xianwang come to the government office yet? He was never late.
Soon, everyone in the government office arrived, but Tao Xianwang still hadn't arrived. Without Tao Xianwang, the government office was like a group of dragons without a leader. Naturally, there was no way for them to work. The entire government office was in chaos.
Soon, people noticed that Tao Xianwang wasn't the only one who hadn't arrived. The few people from the Tao Family who worked in the government office hadn't arrived either. This wasn't right. In the end, the people in the government office recommended two people to go to the Tao Family to invite them. One of them was Su Ming, and the other was the captain of the city's security team.
The two of them reluctantly went to the main street of the Tao Manor, but they found that it was very quiet. There wasn't any movement, which made Su Ming's hair stand on end. At this moment, the captain of the security team next to Su Ming, Chen Kang, suddenly said, "Something's wrong. There's the smell of blood here, and it's very strong. Something happened in the Tao Family!"
