While the experts of the academy were holding a meeting, Feng Hao had also rushed back to the academy, and coincidentally encountered many experts gathered together. He was rather astonished in his heart. Could it be that these people already knew that he was coming back?
"Why is everyone gathered here, Radiant Sun Sovereign?" Feng Hao's appearance had undoubtedly caused everyone to be startled, and joy appeared on their faces.
"Haha, Feng Hao, you brat, you're finally back." The Radiant Sun Sovereign laughed as he patted Feng Hao's shoulder.
"Brat, you've been gone for eight years. Now that you've returned, it seems like you've obtained the item." The Scholar smiled with his eyes narrowed. At the same time, he was startled in his heart. He felt that Feng Hao had become even more mysterious, to the point that even he couldn't see through him.
"Haha, everyone is treating me as an outsider." Feng Hao was in a good mood when he saw so many people gathered here.
"It's good that you're back. We were just about to discuss some matters." The Radiant Sun Sovereign smiled. The worry between his brows seemed to have lessened when he saw Feng Hao's return, and was replaced with a more relaxed expression.
"Yeah." Feng Hao was slightly startled. At this moment, he realised that everyone's expression didn't seem to be relaxed, as if they were troubled by something. Immediately, his expression turned slightly grave.
"Could it be related to the Azure Sky Archdevil Sovereign?" Feng Hao's brows were tightly knitted together. Aside from the Azure Sky Archdevil Sovereign, there was probably no one else in the True Martial Continent that could cause so many experts to be in such a state.
"No, it's just a recent massacre." The Sage of Calligrapher sighed and immediately looked at the crowd. He said, "Half a month ago, some villages in some places began to suffer extremely cruel killings. Not a single person in the entire village was able to survive. This phenomenon has happened nearly a dozen times. Three days ago, a small town with a population of tens of thousands was also ruthlessly slaughtered."
"Massacre?" Feng Hao's eyes suddenly widened, but his mind was racing. One must know that in the village, there were at most some ordinary people. Why would anyone deliberately kill them, and for a long time?
"Wasn't it done by the Azure Sky Demon Sovereign?" Feng Hao's face turned completely gloomy. This kind of matter inevitably made people think of the Green Heaven Archdevil Venerable. However, he couldn't understand why the Green Heaven Archdevil Venerable would attack these ordinary people. They were completely useless to him.
"Initially, we also thought that it was the Azure Sky Demon Sovereign. But after thinking about it, we feel that it shouldn't be the Azure Sky Demon Sovereign. After all, the souls of ordinary people can't satisfy his needs." The Radiant Sun Sovereign pondered for a brief moment before continuing.
"I've already sent someone over to take a look at the murder case three days ago. There should be news soon." The Scholar helplessly shrugged his shoulders. This matter had to be stopped. If it continued to develop, the entire True Martial Continent would fall into a state of panic.
However, at this moment, Wu Wang appeared. He looked like Feng Chen, as if he had just returned from a long journey. He looked very anxious, and when he saw Feng Hao, he was clearly stunned.
"Wu Wang, why are you back?" The Scholar looked at Wu Wang, who had suddenly appeared. He was also slightly startled. He had sent Wu Wang to that small town, and he had returned so quickly. Could it be that he had discovered something?
"Senior Brother, there are survivors in that small town." Wu Wang hurriedly said. He didn't even bother to greet Feng Hao.
"Survivors."
Feng Hao wasn't the only one who was startled. The Radiant Sun Sovereign and the others were also startled. The Scholar even gestured for Wu Wang to continue.
"Yes. When we were investigating, we saw a little girl around ten years old in a pile of corpses. She was covered by the corpses. I'm afraid that her relatives did this to protect her," Wu Wang replied.
"Then, did you bring her back?" The Calligrapher had an anxious look on his face. This girl was very important. If he could get some information from her, he was afraid that they would know what was going on.
Hearing the Scholar's question, Wu Wang hesitated for a brief moment before replying, "No. That girl is also heavily injured. Right now, Wu Wo is using his own energy to preserve her life. However, her injuries are too heavy, and I'm afraid that she won't be able to hold on for long. Therefore, I rushed back through the night."
The Radiant Sun Sovereign and the Calligrapher exchanged glances, before nodding their heads. Wu Wang's actions were undoubtedly very wise. If even Wu Wang's Anatta cultivation couldn't protect the girl's life, they knew that the girl's injuries were extremely severe. Only if they took action would there be a sliver of a chance.
"I'll go with Wu Wang." At this moment, Feng Hao mused for a moment before he took the initiative to speak. He also wanted to know if this matter was related to the Qing Tian Devil Sovereign.
The Radiant Sun Supreme and the Calligrapher exchanged glances and remained silent. If Fenghao was the one going, he would indeed be a suitable candidate. However, Fenghao had just returned and there were still some things that he hadn't told the Calligrapher.
"You can go. But before that, I have to tell you something." The Scholar looked at Feng Hao and said.
"Okay." Feng Hao slightly raised his head and looked at the Scholar doubtfully. Such a strange way of doing things didn't seem like the Scholar.
"In the eight years that you disappeared, Huangfu Wushuang looked for you." The Scholar nodded his head. He thought that Feng Hao didn't know about it. Therefore, he wanted to let Feng Hao know. After all, he knew that Feng Hao would disappear for a period of time when the Immortal Graveyard opens.
"Oh, I got it. I met Wu Liang when I returned from the Ice Plains. He told me about it." Feng Hao forced a smile and took a deep breath.
He was extremely clear about the Calligrapher's intention of reminding him. After all, the Azure Sky Archdevil Venerable was currently holding Fenghao's child hostage. Even if Fenghao disregarded everything to search for the Azure Sky Archdevil Venerable, they could understand.
"Then you …" The Sage of Calligrapher was silent. He thought that Fenghao didn't know, but he didn't expect that Fenghao had already made his own decision. Although Fenghao had to pay a huge price for this decision, it was too heavy.
