For a moment, the atmosphere in the main hall became unusually tense.
"Yi Jian! Let's not waste any more time. We have to inform the headquarters and ask Lord Seijen to come and support us, "Ye Qing frowned and suggested.
They had all witnessed how terrifying Wu Sheng was.
Now, whether it was Tu Shenzong or the East Sea Alliance, the only one who could stop Wu Sheng's attack was probably Seijen, who was also a Wu Sheng.
"Alright!" Yi Jian did not hesitate. He immediately took out a voice transmission talisman and reported the news to Zhong Shudao. He also requested for support from the headquarters.
In the corner, Yi Hai's expression changed drastically when he heard the news. He muttered, "That location … Isn't that where Jiang Village is … Qin 'er …"
In the vast night sky, the stars were like pearls sprinkled on a jasper plate.
At that moment, dozens of figures appeared outside Jiang Village.
With the help of the moonlight, one could clearly see that the person in the lead was the founding elder of Darkness Sect, Zhao Lifeng. Standing beside him was the Great Elder of Darkness Sect, Fu Chang.
Standing behind the two of them were dozens of soldiers who had reached the Martial Ancestor Realm. All of them had sinister smiles on their faces.
"Lord Zhao, it's just a small village. Why did you come personally?" Fu Chang said respectfully. They had destroyed dozens of villages previously, but Zhao Lifeng had not appeared in person.
However, when they were about to attack Jiang Village, Zhao Lifeng had come personally. This was something that they could not understand.
"I have some history with this village." Zhao Lifeng placed his hands behind his back and looked ahead calmly.
Gradually, figures appeared in the village one after another. They were all villagers of Jiang Village. There were men and women, young and old.
Every single one of the villagers had a look of panic on their faces, but their eyes were filled with a sense of unswerving determination.
The burly men gritted their teeth and held their farming tools in their hands. The women held brooms in their hands. The children's eyes sparkled as they hid on their father's sturdy back and stared unblinkingly at the uninvited guest in front of them.
"I remember the atmosphere in Jiang Village was like this when I first came. I didn't expect it to still be like this after so many years …" Zhao Lifeng smiled and shook his head. He seemed to be recalling the past, and a hint of gentleness appeared in his eyes.
"Lord Zhao …" Fu Chang frowned, feeling a chill run down his spine.
To everyone else, perhaps Zhao Lifeng's eyes were filled with gentleness, but only Fu Chang knew that it was an inhumane cruelty.
The man in front of him had always been someone who killed without batting an eyelid.
The word 'gentle' did not exist in Zhao Lifeng's dictionary.
Zhao Lifeng did not sound the horn to attack. Instead, he continued to wait.
Gradually, a young lady supported an old man as they slowly walked out from the crowd. These two people were Jiang Jianhua and Jiang Qin.
"Patriarch …"
When they saw Jiang Jianhua, a worried look appeared on their faces.
Jiang Jianhua had done many good deeds in his life and was loved and respected by everyone in Jiang Village. No one wanted him to die here.
"Forefather Jiang, it's been a while. I wonder if you still remember me." At this moment, Zhao Lifeng's figure suddenly disappeared from where he was. When he reappeared, he was already in Jiang Village, less than a hundred meters away from the crowd.
"What are you doing?!"
"Get out of our Jiang Village!"
"Get out!"
When the crowd saw this, they hurriedly gripped the 'weapons' in their hands and walked forward to protect Jiang Jianhua.
Fu Chang instantly came to Zhao Lifeng's side. His eyes were fierce, and just when he was about to attack, he was stopped by Zhao Lifeng.
Fu Chang frowned and had a puzzled look on his face. Zhao Lifeng's reaction today was completely different from before. It was as if he was a different person.
"All of you, stand down." At this moment, Jiang Jianhua walked out of the crowd and walked to the front without fear. He looked at Zhao Lifeng calmly.
After a long time, Jiang Jianhua exclaimed softly in surprise. "It's you …"
Zhao Lifeng smiled and looked at the old, weak, women, and children in front of him with his hands behind his back. He looked at their faces that were filled with determination and said with a smile, "Decades ago, the people of Jiang Village who protected me also had the same expression."
Jiang Jianhua frowned and said in a deep voice, "At that time, you were covered in dirt and were seriously injured, so I didn't recognize you."
"That's right! At that time, I was being hunted by my enemies and passed by here. It was Forefather Jiang's kindness that saved my life. That's how I am today. "Zhao Lifeng sighed as he recalled the past.
Back then, as the King of the Northeast Region, he was unfortunately being hunted by his enemies.
Although he had reached the level of Level Nine Wu Huang at that time, his enemies were still very powerful. Moreover, there were more than ten of them working together.
He almost went through the entire Northeast Region and accidentally found Jiang Village.
At that time, Forefather Jiang was already the Village Chief of Jiang Village, so he did not recognize him. He only saw that he was seriously injured, so he saved his life.
"Patriarch saved his life?"
"Looks like we're saved today …"
"He doesn't look like a bad person …"
For a moment, the villagers of Jiang Village whispered to each other and heaved a sigh of relief.
Jiang Jianhua had saved Zhao Lifeng's life before. Logically speaking, Zhao Lifeng would not kill them.
"You were once from the Northeast Region. Why did you come to harm us?"
"We were born from the same root. Why are you in such a hurry to kill each other …" Jiang Jianhua advised bitterly. It was only today that he found out that the lad he had saved that day was actually the King of the Northeast Region at that time. Now, he was even a founding elder of the Dark Sect.
Zhao Lifeng walked in front of Jiang Jianhua and put a hand on his shoulder as he said with a smile, "This is also the reason why I didn't do anything, Forefather Jiang."
Jiang Jianhua stared into Zhao Lifeng's eyes and shouted sternly like a senior teaching a junior, "There has always been a division of life and death. The Northeast Region can be considered your hometown. You were born and raised here, but now you're leading an army to attack us. How can you bear to do that!?"
"I had no choice, Forefather Jiang." Zhao Lifeng shook his head with a smile and said, "If Lin Yun hadn't started this war, would you have been affected?"
"Bullsh * t!" When he heard Zhao Lifeng's words, Jiang Jianhua scolded loudly. His face turned red and he shouted angrily, "Ever since Lord Lin Yun took over the Northeast Region, the people of the Northeast Region have been living and working in peace. Their strength has increased greatly, and the country is prosperous and the people are at peace!"
"Those four b * stards just now! They caused the people of the Northeast Region to have no way to live and cry in pain. All of this is because of the Dark Sect! "
Everyone was a little dumbfounded. The villagers of Jiang Village were stunned because they had never seen Jiang Jianhua get angry. As for the people of the Dark Sect, they were puzzled as to why a mere mortal dared to speak to a Wu Sheng like that. Wasn't he courting death?
