At noon the next day, everyone had finished resting. The poisonous mist that shrouded the land had also started to dissipate.
"Let's enter the city!"
Jiang Lin stood up and looked at Qin Yi and the rest.
Qin Yi and the rest stood up and followed Jiang Lin into White Tiger City.
"I don't know why, but I have a bad feeling about this."
Jiang Lin suddenly said to Qin Yi along the way. Although Jiang Lin's words were a little strange, Qin Yi took it to heart and quickened his pace.
White Tiger City was bustling with activity. Everything was the same as usual. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary. However, Jiang Lin's brows furrowed even more. It was as if a dark cloud was looming over her head.
Jiang Lin's adventurer team was located to the west of White Tiger City. They had to pass through the entire city in order to reach it.
She did not say a single word along the way. She only quickened her pace as if something was calling out to her.
Qin Yi and the others also didn't say anything. They followed behind at an extremely fast speed along the way.
A moment later, Jiang Lin led them through the entire White Tiger City and arrived in front of a huge tower.
This was the location of the adventurer team that Jiang Lin had founded.
Jiang Lin's adventurer team was called the Overwhelming Adventurer team. Not only did it have a large number of members, but it also had many experts.
Because of this, even though Jiang Lin, the adventurer team's commander, wasn't particularly strong, the Overwhelming Castle adventurer team still enjoyed a high status in White Tiger City. No one dared to ignore the existence of the Overwhelming Adventurer team. Similarly, no one dared to ignore the existence of the super powerful team leader, Jiang Lin.
At this moment, the entrance of the Overwhelming Adventurer team's stronghold was tightly shut. There was not a single sound coming from inside. Everything seemed so peaceful.
However, when Jiang Lin saw this scene, his eyebrows furrowed tightly.
Seeing this, Qin Yi immediately used God's Spirit Eye to observe the situation inside.
When he saw the scene inside, he immediately furrowed his brows.
There were hundreds of corpses hanging in the middle of the adventurer team. Each of them was covered in wounds, and their blood had long dried up. It was obvious that they had been dead for a long time.
On the ground, there were hundreds of people kneeling on the ground. They didn't say a word, and their expressions were dull and lifeless.
Without a doubt, Jiang Lin's intuition was correct. Indeed, something had happened to her Alluring Adventurer Team. Moreover, something big had happened.
Jiang Lin did not say a word. He took a step forward, opened the door and strode in.
As soon as she entered, her footsteps came to a halt. Her expression instantly turned incomparably pale, and even her body began to tremble.
Li Qingzhu and the others quickly followed and soon saw the scene in the stronghold.
Everyone's faces were extremely ugly. Although they were already used to seeing death, it was still unbelievable to kill someone in such a place.
Although the Muyun Territory was a place without an official organization, after living here for so long, there were groups of adventurers. Over the years, they had long established rules and a consensus.
No matter what kind of conflict there was, no matter how impatient they were, fighting was not allowed in the safe zone, and no deaths or injuries were allowed.
After all, adventurers were already full of danger when they went out to explore. A slight mistake could cost them their lives.
Everyone had to live a life of fear and trepidation outside. Now that they were in their own territory, no one was willing to continue fighting.
Hence, in the cities and adventurer teams' strongholds, massacres and killings were not allowed, unless it was a place specially set up for battles.
This was a rule that everyone had to abide by.
Anyone who violated this rule would have to be punished.
However, there were actually casualties in the Alluring Adventurer Team, which had an extremely high status in White Tiger City.
Moreover, the number of casualties was more than a hundred. While this was shocking, it also sent chills down everyone's spine!
Who was so bold to cause trouble in the adventurer team's stronghold? Moreover, it was in the Alluring Adventurer Team, which was considered the most influential in White Tiger City!
To be honest, no matter who it was, they would definitely be shocked and infuriated after witnessing this scene.
"He Wenyao, get your ass out here!"
Jiang Lin's face was flushed as she yelled at the top of her lungs.
The thousand or so people who were sitting numbly finally regained their senses when they heard her voice. They looked at Jiang Lin. In an instant, it was as if their souls had returned to their bodies.
"Leader! You're finally back! "
"Leader, please save us!"
"We've been through hell during this period of time!"
…
Jiang Lin's eyes reddened when she saw the hopeful expressions on everyone's faces. However, she suppressed her emotions and asked, "Where's He Wenyao? Where are the others? "
"Leader … He Wenyao …"
"Let me tell you! He Wenyao that bastard has betrayed us! "
"The rest have already pledged allegiance to him!"
…
Jiang Lin felt like her body was floating when she heard these answers. It was as if she was about to lose control and fall to the ground.
She suppressed the shock and anger in her heart and continued to ask, "Can you tell me what happened?"
"Leader, you were gone for two and a half months. Many things have happened in the past two and a half months! "
"In the beginning, everyone was quite united, doing their own things and waiting for the return of the Guild Leader."
"However, after a month, the guild gradually heard rumors of your death. The news spread further and further until everyone in the adventurer team heard about it. "
"After that, more and more people started to believe that you were not coming back. The adventurer team was no longer as united as before. "
"Under such circumstances, He Wenyao suddenly announced that he wanted to take over as the leader of the Glamorous Adventurer team half a month ago."
"At first, there were many who refused to accept it. However, they ended up in a miserable state!"
…
Without a doubt, the corpses hanging on the ceiling were those who opposed He Wenyao's succession as the leader. Their attitude was firm, but in the end, they were severely injured by He Wenyao's lightning-fast methods, and then slowly tortured to death.
Clearly, they had experienced great pain before they died.
Through this method, He Wenyao had won the support of many people and succeeded in usurping the position.
As for the remaining people, it was obvious that they had not expressed their opinions yet. That was why they had been forced to stay by He Wenyao and endure great psychological pressure!
Jiang Lin's expression turned uglier and uglier when she heard this.
