That afternoon, something very strange happened in the Scorching Fire Empire.
This strange incident spread from Scorching Fire City.
In the battle three days ago, tens of thousands of soldiers from the two empires had died.
After the battle, the corpses of the soldiers had been dealt with. There were too many deaths and it would take a lot of time.
But this morning, they discovered that the corpses of the soldiers that had not been dealt with had all turned into bones. Almost overnight, the flesh and blood of the corpses of the soldiers had strangely disappeared.
Even the corpses of the soldiers that had been dealt with and buried underground had all turned into a pile of white bones.
Seeing this strange and frightening phenomenon, the soldiers who were dealing with the corpses were scared out of their wits. They even thought that there was a ghost.
In just one night, a large number of corpses had all turned into bones!
No one knew what was going on.
When they discovered this strange phenomenon, the soldiers had already sent the news back to the imperial capital.
Duan Tianhun and the other higher-ups were all shocked. They had never heard of such a strange thing.
The battle had just ended and the empire had suffered heavy casualties. There were also many complicated matters that needed to be dealt with. Now, something strange had happened.
No matter how many complicated matters they had to deal with, it was not more important than this strange incident. Duan Tianhun and Yang Tianxian rushed to Scorching Fire City immediately.
The next morning, after Huan Yang received the news, he immediately rushed to Wushuang City's Feng Family.
Today, an uninvited guest had also come to the Feng Family!
And this uninvited guest was the man who had pretended to be the Feng Family's guard!
"I am He Mo. Greetings to the Great Commander." A man entered the hall and greeted Feng Wuchen politely.
Feng Wuchen calmly sized up the man and asked, "Who are you? Why are you looking for me? "
"It's you!" As soon as Feng Wuchen finished speaking, Feng Qianyang's face suddenly changed. He pointed at the man and shouted angrily, "It's really you!"
"Oh? Great Elder has a good memory. You actually recognize me! "He Mo smiled. He was very surprised and did not panic.
"Wuchen, he was the one who pretended to be the Feng Family's guard! The Patriarch's capture must be related to him! Don't let him escape! "Feng Qianyang hurriedly shouted.
"What?" The faces of the Feng Family's upper echelons changed drastically. Xiao Qingqing hurriedly shouted, "Chen 'er, don't let him escape!"
Knowing that it was the person who pretended to be a Feng Clan guard, Xiao Qingqing and the others' first reaction was to not let this person escape!
Feng Wuchen's expression turned frosty in an instant. In the blink of an eye, Feng Wuchen had already appeared in front of He Mo. The Supreme Dragon God's Sword was already pressed against He Mo's neck. His speed was terrifying!
"Don't worry, Aunt Xiao. This bastard won't be able to escape!" Liu Qingyang shouted angrily as he and Miao Qingqing dashed over to block He Mo's escape route.
"Where is my father?" Feng Wuchen coldly asked. His appearance was ferocious, and every word carried a biting cold killing intent.
If He Mo dared to say no, Feng Wuchen would kill him without hesitation!
"Leader, you are cruel and merciless. I know it very well. You killed a cultivator at the third level of Sky Origin Stage when you are only at the first level of Sky Origin Stage. That is terrifying." He Mo smiled calmly.
"If you don't tell me the whereabouts of the Patriarch! Don't even think about leaving here alive! "Feng Qianyang shouted angrily.
It had been too long! The Feng Clan had waited for too long! They had suppressed it for too long!
Now that they finally got a clue about Feng Zhengxiong, they couldn't miss it!
Feng Wuchen coldly stared at He Mo and coldly said, "You have the guts to come here. It means that my father is still alive. You can still remain so calm in front of me. It means that you are confident that you won't die here."
"You are indeed the number one genius of the empire. Leader, you are indeed smart!" He Mo smiled.
"That's great! The Patriarch is still alive! " Hearing this, everyone in the Feng Clan could tell that Feng Zhengxiong was still alive. For a moment, everyone in the Feng Clan cheered.
"Speak! Where is Zhengxiong? "Xiao Qingqing coldly asked, as if she was giving an order.
He Mo didn't show any fear. He smiled and said, "Madam Feng, why are you in such a hurry?"
The Supreme Dragon God's Sword lightly swiped across He Mo's neck. A trace of blood flowed out. He Mo's expression slightly changed as he felt the stinging pain.
"You seem to have underestimated my means! Do you really think that I won't kill you? If you don't want to try, you better tell me honestly where my father is! Otherwise, I won't hesitate to kill you! "Feng Wuchen coldly said, and a majestic and terrifying aura burst out.
Feng Wuchen continued, "If I kill you, the power behind you will definitely send someone to find me! What do you think? "
Facing Feng Wuchen, He Mo started to feel fear in his heart when he felt the terrifying aura. Cold sweat broke out on his back.
He Mo didn't dare to challenge Feng Wuchen's patience anymore. Suppressing the fear in his heart, He Mo said, "Feng Wuchen, my master wants to see you."
"I asked where my father is!" Feng Wuchen coldly said. The Supreme Dragon God's Sword moved forward a bit, and the wound on He Mo's neck deepened. However, He Mo was so frightened that his body trembled.
Feng Wuchen only wanted to know the whereabouts of Feng Zhengxiong. He wasn't interested in who He Mo's master was.
"In … in the Nine Prefectures!" He Mo said in fear. He could no longer endure Feng Wuchen's terrifying aura and cold killing intent.
"The Nine Prefectures of the continent? It is indeed related to you! " Feng Qianyang frowned and said, "The Nine Prefectures isn't far from the empire. It's the westernmost region of the continent. No wonder we couldn't find the whereabouts of your master!"
"The Nine Prefectures?" Feng Wuchen frowned. He wasn't unfamiliar with the Nine Prefectures because the Xiao Family was in the Nine Prefectures!
The Xiao Family was in the Nine Prefectures, but they knew about Huangfu's family. Feng Wuchen guessed that Huangfu Tianba and the rest were also hiding in the Nine Prefectures!
Coldly staring at He Mo, Feng Wuchen asked, "What is your purpose in capturing my father?"
"For the Ninefold Cosmos Pagoda!" He Mo said straightforwardly. He didn't dare to beat around the bush.
"Ninefold Cosmos Pagoda?" Feng Wuchen frowned. The Ninefold Cosmos Pagoda was indeed very tempting.
The Ninefold Cosmos Pagoda was an Inferior Celestial Artifact. Needless to say, it was very powerful. What was more frightening was that it had a domineering suppressive force. It was definitely a precious treasure for powerhouses.
Even a High-grade Spiritual Artifact was very precious and rare, let alone an Inferior Celestial Artifact. Especially a High-grade Spiritual Artifact with terrifying power, it was extremely expensive.
The existence of a Celestial Artifact was very rare even in the continent. It was also a precious treasure that countless cultivators yearned for.
"Despicable and shameless! You want to use the Family Head to force Wuchen to hand over the Ninefold Cosmos Pagoda! "Feng Qianyang said angrily. A terrible murderous aura spread out. He couldn't wait to kill He Mo on the spot.
Liu Qingyang's face twitched, and he yelled angrily, "What gall of you! To actually dare covet Big Brother Feng's Ninefold Universe Pagoda! I think that you guys are tired of living!"
"Tired of living? Do you know who is behind me? The Four Great Emperors and the big forces of the Four Great Empires all want the Ninefold Cosmos Pagoda. If my master wants to snatch it by force, the Four Great Empires will be nothing. My master just doesn't want to attract attention, "He Mo said disdainfully.
The Four Great Empires were nothing in his eyes. It was obvious that the force behind He Mo was very powerful.
"Go back and tell your master that I will go to the Nine Prefectures. If my father loses a hair, I will destroy the force behind you!" Feng Wuchen said coldly.
"Don't worry, Great Commander. Family Head Feng is doing very well. What my master wants is the Ninefold Cosmos Pagoda. He won't hurt Family Head Feng at all," He Mo said with a smile.
"Get lost!" Feng Wuchen shouted coldly.
"Farewell." He Mo then turned and left.
As soon as He Mo left, Feng Wuchen looked at Xiao Qingqing and asked, "Mother, you are more familiar with the Nine Prefectures. Which force do you think it is?"
Xiao Qingqing shook her head and said, "There are five major forces in the Nine Prefectures. The Xiao Clan can be ruled out, but there are four more. I don't know which force they are."
"Wuchen, since we know his name is He Mo, it won't be difficult to find out. We will find out when we go to the Nine Prefectures," Feng Qianyang said seriously.
"Qingyang, go to the Heaven Pavilion immediately and ask Wuqing and the Crimson Emperor to go to the Nine Prefectures to investigate," Feng Wuchen said.
"Okay! I will go right away! "Liu Qingyang said seriously. He immediately used his flying technique and flew to the Heaven Pavilion.
He still didn't know which force was behind He Mo and how strong they were. He had to find out.
Liu Qingyang had just headed to the Heaven Pavilion when Huan Yang appeared behind him.
"Greetings, Great Commander!" Huan Yang bowed respectfully, looking a little flustered.
"Huan Yang? What is it? "Feng Wuchen asked with a frown.
"Something strange happened yesterday!" Huan Yang reported, "The dead soldiers of Blazing Fire City all turned into skeletons overnight. I don't know what happened, but the Emperor and the Imperial Advisor have already rushed to Blazing Fire City yesterday."
"What? They all turned into skeletons overnight? "Hearing this, the entire Feng Clan was shocked.
Feng Wuchen was shocked when he heard this. There were tens of thousands of dead soldiers. How terrifying was it to turn them into skeletons overnight?
Feng Wuchen frowned and asked, "Did anyone see the skeletons when they were found?"
Huan Yang shook his head and said, "I don't know either. I just got the news this morning and immediately rushed to report it to Great Commander."
"Let's go and take a look." Feng Wuchen nodded.
Just as Feng Wuchen was about to leave, he suddenly felt a dense killing intent. His expression changed, "Who is it?!"
"Heavenly Origin Realm!" Feng Qianyang frowned.
"What a powerful aura! It's above Murong Tian Lie! "Huan Yang was shocked. There was an expert in the Blazing Fire Empire that was more terrifying than Feng Wuchen?
"Whoosh!"
A figure appeared in the air above the Feng Clan's courtyard. It was a young man dressed in white brocade. He looked quite handsome and the powerful aura was coming from him.
The young man was also sizing up Feng Wuchen with a faint smile on his face.
"Fourth Level of Heavenly Origin Realm!" Feng Wuchen frowned slightly and sized up the man in the air. He was puzzled, "What's with his aura? It's an evil aura, filled with resentment and gloominess! "
"Chen 'er, this person's aura is too strange. You must be careful!" Xiao Qingqing warned in a low voice.
