On the first day of the New Year, the sky was completely bright.
On the Eight Ancient Continents, most of the land had stopped snowing. The massacre last night had swept through almost one-tenth of the Eight Ancient Continents. Led by the thirty-one sects, many other forces had also participated.
Under the sunlight, there was a sea of blood everywhere. The cold winter had frozen the blood, forming huge pieces of blood ice on the ground.
Corpses were everywhere, but most of them were torn into pieces. Under the bombardment of the Heaven Technique, these ordinary people couldn't withstand it and didn't even have a complete corpse. It didn't matter if it was an adult or a child. No one was spared.
The dazzling sunlight shone on these corpses as if it was sending them off.
Da da da!
Two figures were riding their horses out of the forest, rushing towards the city in front of them. The two people on the horses looked at the city that was still emitting thick smoke. Their hearts were heavy and they couldn't help but speed up.
"Go!" The two of them shouted and rushed towards the city.
Finally, the two of them arrived outside the city and entered through the broken city gate. When the two of them entered the city and saw the suffocating scene, they couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
The snow on the ground was completely replaced by blood. Most of the blood hadn't even frozen yet. There were also countless red New Year goods on the ground. These people were killed in the midst of the festivities.
"How could this be?" Han Ya looked at the fire in the city in disbelief. Her voice was trembling as she said, "Who is so cruel?"
Beside her was Han Ya's husband, Wei Tao. He looked at the city and frowned. The two of them had been living in seclusion in the mountains. They would go to the city to buy things, but they would leave immediately after buying them. They were isolated from the world. However, at midnight, the two of them heard a huge explosion outside. They had rushed to three cities since midnight, and all of them were in the same miserable state.
"To be able to destroy so many cities in one night, I'm afraid it wasn't done by one person!" Wei Tao said in a low voice. "We have to go and find out if it was only the nearby cities that were destroyed or if it happened to the whole country. If the whole country is like this, we can't continue to stay here. The person who can destroy the cities is much stronger than us. We have to run far away. "
Han Ya nodded slightly. She and Wei Tao were both Level Four Celestial Masters. Someone who could destroy a city in one move was at least a Level Six Celestial Master. They could only run.
But, every time she felt a fatal crisis, the first person Han Ya thought of was never Wei Tao, but her junior brother.
Every time Han Ya was in trouble, it was always that person who saved her, and he was truly putting his life on the line. Even though they hadn't seen each other for so many years, he was still someone who could make her feel at ease.

Ice Fire Island in the Four Southern Seas.
Liu Yi had already finished reading all twenty letters, and everything was basically going according to plan. The task given by Liu Yi was very clear. Once it was completed, no more actions could be taken. Last night, the Ice and Fire Alliance had occupied 26 countries. The royal families of the 26 countries were all under the control of the Ice and Fire Alliance. After coercion and temptation, they all compromised and signed agreements with the Ice and Fire Alliance and became affiliated countries of the Ice and Fire Alliance.
Looking at the letters in her hands, even Liu Yi couldn't help but take a deep breath. When she was in Starfire City, her greatest wish was to destroy the Starfire Chamber of Commerce, and establish her own Alkaid Chamber of Commerce. Her greatest dream was to open Alkaid Chamber of Commerce all over the Midnight Kingdom, and become the richest person in the Midnight Kingdom. At that time, she had never thought of what she was doing now. Even in her dreams, she didn't dare to think of it.
In one night, she had captured 26 countries, and this was only the beginning. Liu Yi put down the letters. Tonight's task had already been sent to the 20 strongholds. In fact, she was mainly waiting for a piece of news.
The news of the Four Great Empires.
Without a doubt, the Four Great Empires would definitely become the most important areas for the 31 Sects to fight over. In Liu Yi's view, the battle would most likely not be carried out in the cities. The 31 Sects would most likely not destroy the already perfect cities and social system, or else it would take many years to rebuild. What they wanted to do was to seize the authority of the royal family.
Not only that, Liu Yi believed that it was unrealistic for a single Sect to swallow up any of the Empires. It would definitely be an alliance of Sects, just like the Four Great Empires. But no matter what, the Sects would never hand over the Emperor's throne to the Four Great Empires' Emperors. Otherwise, the Emperor would secretly play dirty tricks, colluding with other Sects would make things difficult for them. The easiest way was to let their own people become the Emperor. One must know that under the control of the Hachiko clan, the Four Great Empires' Emperors were hereditary. Even the 31 Sects could not meddle with it. Even if it was a Sect member, who wouldn't want to be the Emperor?
Princess Yan Yi had already returned to the palace. Her mood was obviously much calmer. She had said that she would help the Ice Fire Union, naturally she couldn't be absent on such an important day.
Time slowly trickled by, finally when it was close to noon, suddenly a dejected Heavenly Master dashed in, appearing outside the door!
"Report!" This person cupped his hands and shouted, "Union leader, Southern Cloud Empire's report!"
Liu Yi's heart trembled, and immediately ordered. "Speak!"
This person dashed into the palace, and respectfully reported to Liu Yi, "Southern Cloud Empire is already under the control of the Sects. This subordinate only heard that one of them is the Black Sublime Sect, the other sects still need to be investigated! As for the Southern Cloud Imperial Family … … "
This person secretly glanced at Princess Yan Yi, not knowing what to say.
"Speak!" Liu Yi's eyebrows furrowed as she said, "Speak!"
This person's body trembled, and hurriedly said, "The entire Southern Cloud Imperial Family was killed, whether it was the Emperor or his children, none were spared!"
Pa!
The pen in Princess Yan Yi's hand fell, smashing onto the table. Liu Yi turned to look at Princess Yan Yi, and waved her hand to her subordinate, "Leave first, continue to investigate."
"Yes!" This person quickly left.
In the room, all the women looked at Princess Yan Yi, their eyes were filled with heartache. At this time, no one knew how to comfort her. Liu Yi took a light breath, stood up and walked to Princess Yan Yi's side.
"You … … How are you?" Liu Yi leaned to Princess Yan Yi's side, and softly asked.
Princess Yan Yi's eyes were red, she tried her best to hold back her tears, but she still failed. Tears flowed out, and she covered her face, trying her best not to cry out loud.
All the women looked at her, it was hard to imagine Princess Yan Yi's pain, after all, they had never experienced it before.
However, Princess Yan Yi did not cry for long this time, after wiping her tears, she held back her undulating breath and picked up the pen again. She turned her head, her tear-stained face looked at Liu Yi, and said, "From now on, I am no longer a princess."
Looking at Princess Yan Yi's appearance, Liu Yi revealed a smile, and gently hugged Princess Yan Yi.
"You will always be a princess." Liu Yi's tone was very light, but she also said very seriously, "You will always be a princess."
News of the 31 Sects began to come one by one, the huge map in the palace was also constantly updated with the latest battle situation and the territories occupied by the Sects. The speed of the 31 Sects was similar to Liu Yi's imagination, much faster than the Ice Fire Union. But there was no doubt that such a huge movement of the 31 Sects would soon spread to everyone's ears, including the Deep Sea Alliance.
Today was just the beginning, the world's chaos had just begun, after losing the rule of the Hachiko clan, this kind of war would continue for many years.
Suddenly, Liu Yi also felt the benefits of the Hachiko clan's existence, if there was no Hachiko clan's transcendent status, the whole world would be in constant war for thousands of years.
Speaking of the Hachiko clan, Liu Yi naturally thought of Fu Yu. She had guessed that Fu Yu would come to find them on such an important day, but she did not appear at all.
Fu Yu did not come, and neither did Lu An. Liu Yi was in charge of the Ice Fire Union alone. She looked very strong, but her heart was also empty.
If Lu An was here, even if he did nothing, she knew that Lu An would support her if she messed up. If Lu An was not here, even if the whole Ice Fire Union was under her control, she would be in a panic, as if she had no one to rely on.
"Lu An …" Liu Yi thought, "The world's chaos has already begun, how long will it take for you to come back?"
