He quickly looked around.
Wuxin knew he was wrong. Some things couldn't be said casually outside.
The Ghost Doctor still didn't let go. A flying beast flew across the sky and a person landed in the courtyard. It was Rulai Sha.
"What are you master and disciple doing?" Rulai Sha asked.
The Ghost Doctor let go, "Nothing. Mister Sha, your wife has been taken away by The Holy One. "
Rulai Sha asked, "How's the poison?"
The Ghost Doctor said, "There shouldn't be any problems."
Rulai Sha heaved a sigh of relief. After so many twists and turns, it was finally over. He cupped his hands and said, "Mister Black Li, thank you. You are free now. I still have things to do, goodbye. "
The Ghost Doctor hurriedly shouted, "Mister Sha, now that Consort Yuan knows, I'm afraid she won't let us go. Mister Sha, please give us a way out on account of us saving your wife. "
Rulai Sha smiled, "Don't worry, Consort Yuan won't have the chance to tell anyone anymore. No one else will know about this."
The Ghost Doctor was slightly shocked, "You mean, Consort Yuan is already …"
Rulai Sha nodded, "That's right, I mean she's already dead, you're safe." With that said, he flashed away and landed on the flying beast that was circling in the sky, riding the wind and leaving.
He only told them about Consort Yuan's death, he didn't mention a word about Yuan Se's death, and he couldn't tell anyone else.
"One of the Nine Saints is gone …" Rulai Sha, who was soaring in the sky, muttered to himself, then let out a long sigh.
This time, in order to save Thatched Cottage Villa, he didn't hesitate to use Luo Fangfei as bait. The process was full of twists and turns. Although he failed to poison Yuan Se, the result was fortunate, Yuan Se still died.
Exchanging this dangerous trip for Yuan Se's life was worth it.
The master and disciple in the courtyard looked at each other. Consort Yuan's eyeball was still in their hands.
The eyeball for Yuan Se was taken from a corpse in the battlefield of Qi Capital, it wasn't Consort Yuan's. Consort Yuan's eyeball was still soaked in a secret medicine. To put it bluntly, transplanting it for Yuan Se didn't even need to go out to look for it. As long as they had no choice, they would put it back to heal her wounds. They didn't need to worry about not being able to find a suitable eyeball.
…
In the mountain, Niu Youdao and Sha Rulai met alone.
Under a big tree, Niu Youdao saw him and asked, "How is Luo Fangfei?"
Sha Rulai: "I've already confirmed it. The Ghost Doctor said that she's fine. Luo Qiu has already taken her away."
Niu Youdao was finally relieved, or else he really didn't know how to explain to Yin Ji. He heaved a sigh of relief and said, "That's good."
Rulai Sha said, "Since this matter is over, I should return to the sage realm. "The current Misty Pavilion Sect Leader, Huo Kong, will soon be unable to protect himself. Currently, the main positions in the Misty Pavilion are all people from the Dayuan Holy Land. With Yuan Se's death, the Misty Pavilion will probably be in chaos for a while. The inspection of the various sects will probably be delayed for a period of time, and you will have a chance to breathe again. Sigh, in any case, you have to be more careful. "His tone was filled with genuine concern.
Through this, he could finally be at ease with Niu Youdao. After knowing what had happened, he knew that in order to fulfill his promise to save Luo Fangfei, he made an unwise move and took a huge risk. A group of people almost all died in Yuan Se's hands, and almost all of them were wiped out.
Since Huo Kong was so trustworthy, what else was there for him to worry about?
Niu Youdao: "Speaking of Huo Kong, I was about to tell you about this matter. I'm afraid you'll have to postpone your return. I don't have any flying mounts here, so it's inconvenient for me to move around. I would like to ask you to help me send two people to Sky Capital Peak."
Rulai Sha was bewildered. "Go to Sky Capital Peak? What do you want to do? "
Niu Youdao: "Yuan Se is dead, and no one knows about it for now. Huo Kong holds the power of the Misty Pavilion, don't you think it's a great opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the Misty Pavilion?"
Rulai Sha pondered, his eyes flickering.
Niu Youdao explained: "At first, we only wanted to use Luo Qiu to get rid of Yuan Se, but we didn't expect something like this to happen. In the end, Yuan Se died, but not in Luo Qiu's hands. None of us thought that Yuan Se would die without anyone knowing. Luo Qiu didn't know that Yuan Se died, and no one else knew that Yuan Se died. Once the outside world knows about Yuan Se's death, what will Huo Kong do? "
Rulai Sha: "Isn't that obvious? It'll be the same as before. The remaining five sages will definitely purge Yuan Se's forces, and Huo Kong will naturally have to escape and hide."
Niu Youdao: "He ran away just like that, and it'll be a pity if we don't let him use the power in his hands to do something. It's not a good idea to passively resist the Misty Pavilion's investigation like this. We should seize such a great opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the Misty Pavilion, and make it difficult for the five sages to continue investigating. "
Rulai Sha was silent for a moment. "I have to remind you, although the six sages are hiding in various places, in order to adapt to the situation, they must be in contact with each other. Luo Qiu being able to directly find Yuan Se's hiding place is proof. If Yuan Se doesn't show up, they will be suspicious sooner or later. "
Niu Youdao: "I've considered this. Don't worry, they won't do anything immediately even if they can't contact Yuan Se. There will be a period of time, and that's what I want. Even if we can't topple the Misty Pavilion, we can still deal a heavy blow. Yesterday, the situation was urgent, and I didn't think too much about it. I've already ordered people to dig out Yuan Se's body, and this time, help me send it over to Huo Kong. You don't have to worry about anything else, I'll arrange it. "
"Alright! Since we're involved in this, it'll be easier to explain when we return a day or two later, and there won't be any problems. "Rulai Sha didn't have any qualms about just sending it over.
…
The Southern State capital seemed to have regained its peace. On the ruins, Shang Chaozong stood tall, with Shang Shuqing and Lan Ruoting by his side. Behind them were a group of civil and military officials of the Southern State.
In front of them, the entire Prince's Mansion was almost razed to the ground, including the thatched cottage.
With the thatched cottage as the center, there were only a few scattered buildings that survived.
A group of soldiers were searching through the ruins, and from time to time, they would carry out corpses, some of them cultivators, but most of them were citizens of the city.
There were also quite a few who weren't dead, and were rescued from the ruins, wailing in pain.
In one night, the entire Southern State capital suffered countless casualties. Nearly one-fifth of the area was destroyed, and the citizens of the city were scared out of their wits for the entire night.
At this moment, the sound of crying could be heard everywhere, and those who were lucky enough to escape threw themselves on the corpses of their loved ones, crying to the heavens and the earth.
The citizens of the city were still in a state of shock.
The scene in front of him made Shang Chaozong, who had his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist, tense up. Those cultivators were actually killing without restraint in the densely populated residential area, treating the lives of the citizens like grass. His heart was filled with anger, but he couldn't do anything, and couldn't even find a place to reason with.
Shang Shuqing looked at the tragic scene in front of him, and his expression also became gloomy.
"Prince, Commander Meng wants to see you." A personal guard came to report.
Not knowing why Meng Shanming wanted to see him, Shang Chaozong turned to Lan Ruoting and said: "You will handle the aftermath, and if you need to mobilize the troops, ask the generals to assist."
Lan Ruoting cupped his fists: "Yes!"
The group of generals also cupped their fists: "Understood."
The Prince's Mansion was destroyed, and Meng Shanming's temporary residence was in a government office.
Shang Chaozong was directly invited into Meng Shanming's room, and when he entered, he saw not only Meng Shanming, but also Niu Youdao and Guan Fangyi were also there.
Shang Chaozong was startled, and quickly went up to greet: "Daoye."
Niu Youdao waved his hand, indicating that there is no need to be overly courteous, and sighed: "This time, we have caused a lot of trouble for the Prince, and saying 'sorry' is not enough to make up for it. I would like to ask, how are the casualties?"
Shang Chaozong also sighed: "Currently, only a portion of the casualties have been reported, and I am afraid the exact number can only be verified after the cleanup is completed. But the casualties are probably more than a thousand, and many people's homes and shops were destroyed, and they are homeless. "
Niu Youdao tilted his head at Guan Fangyi, and Guan Fangyi took out a stack of gold notes from her sleeve and handed it to him.
Shang Chaozong was stunned: "Daoye, this is?"
Niu Youdao: "Since things have come to this, it is useless to say sorry, but I cannot absolve myself from the blame. Now that the Prince wants to conquer the Qin territory, he has exported a large amount of wealth from the South Region, and he is short of money. Here are ten million gold coins. I hope the Prince can compensate the families of the casualties, and I will have to trouble the Prince to rebuild the damaged houses and shops. "
Shang Chaozong hesitated, and Meng Shanming sighed: "Prince, accept it."
Shang Chaozong took the gold notes, and couldn't help but ask: "Daoye, with such a large number of Heaven Sword Talismans at night, even the armies of the various kingdoms cannot produce so many Heaven Sword Talismans, can I ask what is going on?"
Niu Youdao nodded: "After such a big incident, I am here to give an explanation to the Prince. Yesterday, Luo Qiu and Yuan Se fought, and the two sides were from the Sacred Lands of Daluo and Sacred Lands of Dayuan. I can also tell Your Highness that Yuan Se is already dead. Not by Luo Qiu's hands, but by us! "
"…" Shang Chaozong and Meng Shanming were shocked beyond words.
Niu Youdao reminded: "I should not have told the Prince about this, but I have implicated so many innocent people, and caused the death of so many innocent people. I am not at ease, so I have to give the Prince an explanation. However, I hope the Prince and Meng Shuai will remember, this is a top secret, and once you leave this place, you are not allowed to mention it to anyone. Do what you have to do, and pretend that you know nothing, or else you will not be able to escape! "
…
Deep in the mountains outside the city, because of Luo Qiu's attack, a group of people from the Sacred Lands of Dayuan hid among them. Yuan Chun waited anxiously, but there was no news from Yuan Se. Scouts were also sent into the city, but Yuan Se did not appear, and no one knew where he went.
Luo Qiu and Yuan Se openly fought in the Prefecture City of South Region, and caused such a big commotion, it could no longer be kept a secret, and soon, the news spread throughout the cultivation world.
To cause such a big commotion in a densely populated area, Wu Chang and the others all sent messages to Luo Qiu and Yuan Se to ask what was going on. When Yuan Chun and the others received the news, they did not know how to respond. Luo Qiu naturally said that Yuan Se had ambushed the Sacred Lands of Dayuan and captured his daughter, so he naturally wanted to return the favor and save his daughter.
Wu Chang and the others were puzzled, why did Yuan Se capture Luo Qiu's daughter?
In the Misty Pavilion of Celestial Capital Peak, Huo Kong pushed open the door and entered his room. When he walked to the table and sat down, he was stunned to see a small box on the table.
This was his room, and he was sure that this was not his item. He looked around, and used his arts to check the box, then slowly opened it.
There was a ring in the box, and he recognized it to be Yuan Se's item at first glance. He picked it up and saw that it was indeed Yuan Se's item.
He quickly picked up a piece of paper under the ring, and opened it. On it was a line of words: Quickly go to the North Mountain Valley!
