Devil Saint Yun Aotian was accompanied by the domineering General Ye Xingkong of the Devil Dao. Their auras and physiques were actually quite similar.
Beside Immortal Sage Mu Fanjun was the white-robed and scholarly Immortal Dao General Zhangsun Ju.
Beside Demon Sage Ji Huan was a young girl dressed in pink. She had bright eyes and a petite figure, exuding a youthful aura. Anyone who did not know would know that this young girl was the famous Demon Dao General Lu Ge.
Beside Buddha Saint Cang Lei was General Xing Luo. He was thin and hale, and he wore an embroidered kasaya.
Ghost Saint Situ Xiao's Ghost Dao General Lord Li Sheng's characteristics were very obvious, he was a typical shifty-eyed person.
Five Saint Lords and five General Lords had arrived together. However, none of them looked happy. They were either gloomy, calm, or frowning.
It seemed like something had happened. Something that could make these people show such expressions together was definitely not a small matter.
Jin Man, who was leading Ao Tie and Gongsun Lidao down the steps outside the hall, was stunned. She couldn't help but look around, seemingly asking the two if they knew what had happened.
The two on the left and right also looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.
Nothing had happened to the Limitless Path at the moment, so they naturally didn't know what had happened. Of course, the nominal Holy Lord was an exception. Unfortunately, he wasn't present.
The three of them walked over to welcome them. Jin Man cupped her hands together. "Five Saint Lords and five General Lords have graced us with your presence. Please come in!"
The Demonic Path General Nighthawing waved his hand. "There's no need to stay inside. Just stay outside and get some fresh air. It's suffocating!"
The three of them looked at each other again. Jin Man glanced at them and asked, "Did something happen?"
Mu Fanjun and the others remained silent. It was actually the five of them who wanted to attack White Phoenix. The five Generals were actually a little hesitant at first, but under the persuasion of the five of them, and the fact that they really wanted that batch of Mage Breaker Bows, they agreed.
Now that something big had happened, the five people who had come up with the idea immediately felt a lot of pressure. The five Great Generals obviously had some opinions about the five of them, but they had also agreed. It was just that he couldn't say it out loud. Now, the generals below were all looking for them for an explanation, asking what exactly was going on. The forces left outside were already much weaker than before, so why did they suddenly suffer such a huge loss? They didn't know how to explain it. Many of those who perished were former subordinates of the generals.
The subordinates were not too happy about the Five Sages taking over the position of Holy Master. Although they had gradually gotten along well with each other over the years, this matter might cause their relationship to revert back to how it used to be. Mu Fanjun and the other four, who had come up with such a bad idea, were really under a lot of pressure!
For the sake of the bigger picture. The five Generals could only help suppress him.
Right now, the five Generals could still hold him back. However, if Miao Yi were to massacre the other secret bases, the consequences would be unimaginable! Not to mention the fact that the generals would be furious, the people outside had been preparing for the Six Paths' counterattack. They had been secretly gathering resources. Once the forces outside were eliminated, even if the Six Paths managed to escape, the people outside would be unprepared. What was the point of killing their way out? There would be no hope for the people outside. There would be internal strife in Hell!
"Something did happen." The shifty-eyed Ghost Dao General Li Sheng probed, "Jin Man, did anything happen to your Immeasurable Dao?"
Actually, he knew that his question was pointless. If the other party was asking them curiously, then they definitely didn't know that something had happened. Otherwise, they would have known without even asking. Of course, he also wanted to know if Miao Yi had informed the Immeasurable Dao about his actions.
What did these people mean? The three looked at each other again. Jin Man replied, "Nothing happened on our side. Did something happen on your side? Did the traitors attack again? "
Li Sheng hid his hands in his sleeves. He seemed to be very cold and didn't say anything.
Demon Dao General Lu Ge sighed softly, "Two of my bases outside were massacred."
Immortal Dao General Zhangsun Ju also sighed, "It's the same on our side."
Ye Xingkong said self-deprecatingly, "It's the same on my side. Two bases were massacred. "
Jin Man and the other two were shocked. They looked at the other two. Xing Luo clasped his hands together and said, "No need to ask. It's the same for all five clans. Two of their secret bases were massacred."
Regardless of whether they were a family or not, the losses would be a force for the counterattack in the future. Jin Man asked with a serious expression, "How are the losses for each clan?"
Zhangsun Ju shook his head. "We've discussed it. Even though we only lost ten points in total, the other party's targets were very clear. They seemed to have figured out our strength and specifically chose to attack. Five clans, no more, no less. They've all lost twenty percent of the forces they've deployed outside! "
"Twenty percent!" Jin Man and the other two exclaimed in unison. This meant that the five clans had lost a fifth of their forces. This was equivalent to one of the five clans' forces being wiped out.
This loss was truly shocking. Jin Man asked again, "How did they all lose twenty percent?"
Ye Xingkong clasped his hands behind his back and looked at the others who had come with him. He sneered, "Now that things have come to this, there's no need to hide anything. We came here to ask for help. Jin Man, let's be frank. This was done by your Holy Master. We've offended your Holy Master before, so I hope you can help us ask for leniency so that your Holy Master can be magnanimous and let things go. "
"Ah!" The three of them gaped. Jin Man said in disbelief, "Are you sure it was done by our Holy Master?"
Lu Ge said, "Your Holy Master has already admitted to this. Even if he didn't admit it, we've already guessed it."
This was no small matter. This accusation was a little too much. Jin Man asked in a low voice, "What exactly happened?"
Li Sheng sighed and said, "It's all because of the White Phoenix …" He explained the details of the incident.
As soon as they heard the beginning, Jin Man and the other two roughly understood. The White Phoenix incident had angered the Holy Master, and this was the Holy Master's revenge. After listening to the story, they confirmed that it was indeed the Holy Master's revenge.
What shocked the three of them was that the Holy Master had actually wiped out a fifth of the five clans' forces outside. Furthermore, they had killed every single person in those ten locations. Not a single one had been spared, and not a single one had been able to escape. If not for the urgent request for reinforcements, they probably would not have known that the ten secret strongholds outside had been wiped out. Just how much strength did they have to muster to achieve this?
What was even more shocking was that they didn't even know who had done it. Moreover, they had done it on the same day, at the same time, and at the same time. It wasn't a group of people rushing over to attack the next stronghold after they had finished attacking one location. There was no need to explain what this meant.
Even though Miao Yi was quite famous in the outside world, to be honest, his weak cultivation base was probably not even enough to fill the gaps between everyone's teeth in the eyes of the masses. However, this was the same Divine Master who had been looked down upon by everyone in the Immeasurable Dao back then, who had to bow and scrape to everyone. Yet, after the incident with the White Phoenix, he was actually able to gather such a massive amount of power in such a short period of time and swiftly strike the five thunderbolts!
However, they couldn't figure out where Miao Yi had gotten such a powerful force. Even though he had only wiped out a fifth of the five clans' forces outside, and even though the Six Paths were no longer as powerful as they used to be, the remaining forces were still enough to make the Heavenly Court wary. It was something that the Heavenly Court couldn't eliminate even if they wanted to. Naturally, it wasn't something an ordinary force could compare to.
They could say something that was not arrogant. Other than the official forces of the rebels, there was no other sect or force in the world that could easily achieve this.
Could the Holy Master have mobilized the rebel officials' forces? Impossible!
Just the fact that he was able to wipe out a fifth of each clan's forces was enough to send chills down their spines! This meant that the Holy Master knew the forces of the five clans outside like the back of his hand. He had carefully selected the forces of the five clans outside!
In other words, it was impossible for the Holy Master to have missed out on the Immeasurable Dao. If the rebel officials really had such a detailed grasp of the situation, they wouldn't have targeted the five clans. They would definitely have wiped them out in one fell swoop. There was no way they would have given them so much leeway.
Gongsun Lidao and the other two had grave expressions on their faces. Jin Man probed again, "Do you know who did this?"
Everyone had already gone through the thoughts of the three of them, so they knew what she was trying to say. Zhangsun Ju said meaningfully, "I don't know, but I'm sure it wasn't the rebel officials' forces! This style … doesn't seem like the style of the rebel officials either. " The word 'style' was especially meaningful, as though there was something he couldn't say in front of Yun Aotian and the others.
The three of them immediately understood something from his words, and their hearts skipped a beat. Yun Aotian and the others might not understand, but they did. Their hearts instantly skipped a beat!
That's right! This style …
This attack was so swift, so decisive, so bloody, so merciless. It reminded them of the warning someone had given them before!
The three of them finally understood. This wasn't the Divine Master's warning. That person had made his move!
Only that person's influence would be able to gather such a powerful force at any time to give them such a shocking warning!
Once they understood this, the three of them wailed in their hearts. It turned out that not only could the other party exterminate them while they were hiding in the Purgatory Realm, he could also easily wipe out the forces they had hidden outside.
Eliminating the ten secret bases was only a warning to them. It was a warning to them that since he had decided to use them, they had no other choice. It was a warning to them to behave themselves and not try to play any tricks!
It was as though a pair of invisible hands had grabbed them by the neck, and they couldn't move at all!
This warning also made it clear to them which of the six new Divine Masters was representing that person!
Because of this, the five Divine Masters who had suffered such a huge loss felt a little sick of it. Before this, they thought that Mu Fanjun and the others would all have the same position as the Divine Masters of the Six Paths. Now, they realized that Miao Yi was the main focus, and the other five were just subordinates.
Mu Fanjun and the others, who had been silent all this while, probably didn't know what this meant, but their hearts were heavy.
They dared to play tricks behind Miao Yi's back because they had something on him. They were certain that Miao Yi wouldn't dare to use the Heavenly Court's power. Who would've thought that Miao Yi was hiding such a powerful force? He could easily beat them up without the Heavenly Court's power.
