The next morning.
The four Family Heads were all sitting in the main hall of their respective houses, and the hall was filled with core members. Everyone was a little sleepy at this moment, wondering why the Family Head had gathered everyone so early in the morning.
However, the Family Head did not say a word, and everyone did not know what to say, so they could only stare at each other.
Shang Long sat on his high seat, looking at the door with a serious expression. At this moment, a person suddenly rushed in from the courtyard, rushing into the main hall and almost falling to the ground!
Shang Long was shocked and immediately sat up straight, shouting before the people around him who were about to reprimand him, "What's the news, speak quickly!"
"Reporting … Reporting to Family Head, the Family Head of the Gao Family, Gao Li, has been killed, and his body is hanging on the mast in the city!" Although the servant was panting, he still reported immediately!
Once this was said, everyone in the hall stood up, their uniformity was shocking. Everyone looked at the servant in shock, then at the Family Head, dumbfounded!
Shang Long slammed the chair and stood up, saying excitedly, "It's done! Send someone to the other four families, tell them that I, Shang Long, have invited them to gather at Upper Man Tower at noon today to discuss important matters! "
"Yes!" The servant quickly left, preparing to send the message.
After the servant left, the others could not help but look at the Family Head, asking, "Family Head, what's going on?"
"How did Gao Li suddenly die?"
"Did you send someone to do it, Family Head?"
Shang Long smiled and waved his hand, saying, "I didn't do it, someone else did it. The Gao Family can only blame themselves for offending someone they should not have offended. "
Shang Long suddenly thought of something, and his heart turned cold. He turned and ordered, "Send someone to bring Miss here!"
Everyone was stunned, not understanding why he needed to bring Miss here at such a crucial time. However, they naturally would not go against the Family Head's orders, and quickly sent someone to bring Shang Fei here.
Soon, Shang Fei arrived at the main hall. As it was too early, she was not fully awake. She looked at her father and complained, "Father, why did you call me here so early in the morning?"
Shang Long looked at his daughter, and his heart was filled with anger. He flew into a rage and shouted, "Kneel down!"
His roar was so loud that it hurt everyone's ears! Shang Fei's body suddenly shook, and she was completely shocked awake. She had never seen a father like this. Although she was unwilling, she still knelt on the ground.
Looking at his daughter on the ground, Shang Long's face was ferocious. He gritted his teeth and said, "Do you know whose hairpin you stole a few days ago and who you sent to kill? I really spoiled you too much. You actually dared to do such a lawless thing. It seems that if I don't discipline you properly, you won't be able to change! "
Looking at her father's red face and wide eyes, Shang Fei felt a wave of fear and asked, "Father … what are you doing?"
"Men!" Shang Long roared at the crowd, "Send men to drag Miss out. Flog her fifty times in front of everyone outside the Shang Family. Don't show any mercy!"
"What?!" Everyone trembled and stared at Shang Long with wide eyes!
"Family Head, Young Miss is not a Heavenly Master. If he were to be flogged 50 times, he might lose his life!"
"That's right. Although Miss is naughty and mischievous by nature, she can still manage the family. She shouldn't have committed such a crime!"
"…"
Just as the crowd was about to plead for mercy, Shang Long glared at the crowd and roared, "Whoever dares to say another word will be expelled from the Shang Family and will forever be an enemy of the Shang Family!"
Hearing this, everyone was dumbfounded. They stood on the spot and stared blankly at the family head.
No one dared to say another word. They knew that the family head had really gone crazy.
Hence, no one dared to care about Shang Fei's pleas. They forcefully dragged the crying Shang Fei out for her punishment. Not long after, countless people gathered outside the Shang Family.
In Snatching Light City, there was a third gathering place. It was the Fang Family.
There was no other reason. It was because there was a corpse outside the Fang Family. This corpse belonged to none other than the Fang Family's Eldest Miss, Fang Bihan.
What was even more shocking was that this corpse was not placed here by someone else. It was sent out by the Fang Family themselves.
No one dared to come within ten feet of the corpse. Everyone could only look from afar and whisper amongst themselves.
At the same time, the news of the end of the Mountain Expedition spread. In just one morning, four major pieces of news spread. Everyone knew that Snatching Light City was about to change.
Meanwhile, the instigator of all this, Yang Meiren, was standing respectfully beside Lu An at this very moment, watching as Lu An packed his things.
"We should go." After Lu An packed his things, he turned to look at Beauty Yang and said, "Let's return to Yuan Mountain City and go through the Sacred Flame Gate to Meteor Trail City. From there, we'll head to the Celestial World Gate that I know of and go to Sengoku."
Beauty Yang pondered for a moment before saying, "I remember Master said that there's a Celestial World Gate in Mount Ri Liang on the east side of the Great Accomplishment Sky Mountain. Is it closer to the Great Accomplishment Sky Mountain?"
Lu An was startled and thought about it seriously. Indeed, the distance between Mount Ri Liang and the Great Accomplishment Sky Mountain was closer than the distance between Meteor Trail City and the Celestial World Gate. He nodded and said, "That's right. But there's no Sacred Flame Gate near the Great Accomplishment Sky Mountain."
"I do." Beauty Yang smiled and said, "Back then, it was too boring on the Great Accomplishment Sky Mountain, so I left behind a Dharma Array. I can set up a Dharma Array here and directly teleport over. "
Lu An was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly said, "Alright, then I'll have to trouble you."
Beauty Yang smiled and went to the courtyard to set up the Dharma Array. As her strength increased, setting up the Dharma Array also became much faster. After an hour or so, the Teleportation Dharma Array was completed. At this moment, Lu An and Rourou were already standing in the courtyard and waiting.
Lu An had a headache over Rourou's existence.
It was not because it was troublesome to bring Rourou along, but because Rourou's home was not far from the Medicine God Nation. If he brought Rourou away, it meant that Rourou might not be able to find her original home.
Thinking of this, Lu An looked at Rourou and said, "I don't know if I'll be able to come back. However, it's too dangerous to leave you here. I can only help you find your race in the future."
"Okay." Although Rourou was sad, she still nodded. During this period of time with Lu An, she knew that this human would treat her very well.
"It might not be difficult to find a fairy." Beauty Yang suddenly opened her mouth and said, "I've heard from others that Sengoku and the fairies seem to have crossed paths and have a good relationship. They should know where the fairies are. You can go to Sengoku and ask them. "
Lu An was overjoyed when he heard this and asked, "Is this true?"
"I've only heard of it." Beauty Yang smiled bitterly and said, "However, with Master's relationship, this shouldn't be difficult."
Lu An immediately nodded when he heard this. Indeed, although his relationship with his master was not that close, his relationship with Yao was not shallow. Yao was kind and would definitely be willing to help.
"Then let's not delay any further. Let's go!" Lu An immediately said.
Beauty Yang nodded and waved her hand to activate the Teleportation Dharma Array. Rourou looked a little scared when she saw the huge door in front of her.
"I'll bring you away. Don't be afraid." Beauty Yang looked at Rourou and said coldly.
With that, the three of them entered the Teleportation Dharma Array together.

Half an hour later.
Mount Dacheng, Azure Water Peak.
In a remote courtyard, a purple light suddenly lit up. The light became more and more intense, dyeing everything in the surroundings purple. When the purple light reached its peak, a door appeared from within.
Lu An, Beauty Yang, and Rourou walked out of the Teleportation Dharma Array and landed on the ground. Stepping on the ground, Lu An could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
This was the longest time he had spent in the Teleportation Dharma Array. To be honest, it did not feel good inside. The feeling of losing control and the strange scene made him feel muddle-headed.
Shaking his head, Lu An finally felt more awake. Then, he raised his head and looked around. After all, he had not seen Azure Water Peak for several months. He had many friends here and wondered how they were doing.
However, when Lu An looked around, he was stunned.
Because he was shocked to find that the Azure Water Peak, which was supposed to be solemn and dignified, was now in ruins!
