Chapter 144: You Have to Hold Back Your Displeasure
The Power Clan was brutally exterminated, and more than 200 soul masters were killed overnight, including Titan, the master craftsman.
This tragedy also brought great losses to Ning Fengzhi.
He had already ordered a large number of Zhuge divine crossbows for the defense of the sect.
The Power Clan was gone before those hidden weapons were fully delivered.
The news soon spread to the Tiandou Imperial Family, and Emperor Xue Ye was shocked and angry.
He called Ning Fengzhi to discuss the matter together.
"Master Ning, I never thought that such a thing could happen in Tiandou City, the capital of the empire!"
Ning Fengzhi's expression was solemn.
"Yes! The Power Clan is also a good force in Tiandou City, but it was exterminated in just one night. It is really shocking and inhumane."
"According to Master Ning, who did it?"
Emperor Xue Ye already had the answer in his mind, but he still wanted to hear Ning Fengzhi's thoughts.
"Your Majesty, who else in the entire continent has such strength except the Spirit Hall?"
"That's right, it must be the Spirit Hall!"
Ning Fengzhi shook his head helplessly.
"Your Majesty, even if we know it was the Spirit Hall, we can't act rashly.
I just came back from the scene, and there is no trace of the Spirit Hall left there.
In the absence of evidence, they will blame us and say that we slandered them.
In that case, we will go from being the right party to the wrong party."
After listening to Ning Fengzhi's analysis, Emperor Xue Ye said angrily:
"Are we just going to let the Spirit Hall slaughter the sects of my empire? They are really going too far!"
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this matter needs to be considered for a long time."
Ning Fengzhi believes that the reason why the Power Clan was exterminated may be related to the hidden weapons such as the Zhuge Divine Crossbow.
Because the Power Clan is good at casting, if they are exterminated, those hidden weapons cannot be mass-produced.
Ning Fengzhi also thought that the Spirit Hall might be coming for him.
The news that he had ordered a large number of hidden weapons had reached Bibi Dong's ears.
Ning Fengzhi did not tell Emperor Xue Ye about his inner thoughts, fearing that Emperor Xue Ye would be angry with him.
Now he could only swallow his anger.
The Power Clan was wiped out, and it was impossible to cast the Zhuge Divine Crossbow again. Ning Fengzhi was heartbroken.
He hoped that Tang San could return early to solve the problem of casting hidden weapons.
On the other hand, hearing the news that the Power Clan was wiped out, Yu Xiaogang, Liu Erlong, Flanders and other teachers and students of Shrek Academy were heartbroken.
Yu Xiaogang guessed in his heart that it must have been done by the Spirit Hall.
But he had no evidence.
Even if he went to the Spirit City to find Bibi Dong to argue, there would be no result.
However, he swore in his heart that he would find out the truth and give justice to the dead Tai Long and his clansmen.
After this incident, the Yu Clan, the Min Clan and the Po Clan all strengthened their precautions, fearing that the disaster of extermination would fall on them.
Elders Ju and Gui returned to the Pope's Palace and were highly praised by Bibi Dong.
They handled these two things very well, and also invisibly dampened the spirits of the two empires.
But the two empires will not be discouraged by this. They will secretly investigate and try to find evidence and motives of the Spirit Hall's murder.
On the other side.
Feng Xiaotian and his nine companions continued to move westward.
In order to facilitate cultivation and search for the traces of the wolf bandits, they did not move very fast.
However, more than ten days have passed in a flash.
Now they have entered the western border of the Tiandou Empire.
At noon that day, Feng Xiaotian stopped the carriage.
"You rest here for a while, I'll go to the nearby area to take a look."
Shui Bing'er was a little worried.
"Brother Tian, I'll go with you."
"No need, flying around in the air will also consume soul power. Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
"Xiaotian, don't fly too far."
"Yeah."
Feng Xiaotian has agile speed.
When he spread his wings, even a soul master with flying ability might not be able to catch up with him.
When flying in the air, he could also sense the breath within a range of about 2,000 meters.
Suddenly, he sensed that something was wrong 2,000 meters ahead, so he flew over quickly.
Then, he landed in a village.
The village was surprisingly quiet, with no one.
But the farmland looked like it was planted by someone.
Many houses in the village were destroyed, and there were blood stains in some places.
From all the signs, it was most likely done by the wolf bandits, as if it happened two or three days ago.
Behind the village, there was a mountain with dense trees.
Feng Xiaotian flew towards the mountain and felt a bloody smell in the mountain.
There was no doubt that the wolf bandits were hiding in the mountain.
This place was several thousand meters away from Grandpa and the others, and Feng Xiaotian was not in a hurry to move forward.
He flew back and reported the news to everyone.
"I finally found the traces of the wolf bandits. Unfortunately, the village was destroyed and there seemed to be no survivors in the village. Moreover, the village was backed by a mountain. The wolf bandits hid in the mountain and no one knew how many there were."
Everyone was very excited when they heard the news.
"Finally we found them!"
"What should we do? Go to the mountain to find them?"
Feng Xiaotian shook his head.
"The mountain is very big, which is more advantageous for them. I have a better idea. Let's lure the snake out of the hole."
Feng Lieyang laughed.
"Xiaotian, do you want to use us as bait?"
"Yes. I will go to the mountains to find them, and you will light up the smoke and bonfire in the village to make a commotion, and those wolf bandits will be attracted."
"That's a good idea, wait for them to take the bait."
"Let's go there now without delay."
"Okay!"
Led by Feng Xiaotian, the group came to the village just now.
There was no one in the village.
They found a family that had not been completely destroyed to stay.
That family happened to have some food in stock.
Everyone lit up the smoke and cooked while waiting for the wolf bandits to arrive.
Feng Xiaotian flew out again and scouted the surrounding situation.
He found that there were two more villages destroyed like this within a few kilometers.
Those wolf bandits were too cruel.
Without exception, there were no survivors in those two villages.
The gang of wolf bandits should have just come here recently.
If the nearby villagers knew that there were wolf bandits, they would not settle here.
Feng Xiaotian flew over the mountain to look for the traces of the wolf bandits.
As expected, he found out through the wind that there was a huge natural cave deep in the mountain, where there were groups of wolf bandits, at least hundreds of them.
There were piles of bones in the cave.
Feng Xiaotian landed in the forest and deliberately made a noise to attract the attention of the wolf bandits.
Sure enough, a wolf bandit was fooled.
Several wolf bandits chased out, and Feng Xiaotian took the opportunity to lead them down the mountain.
At this time, it was already late.
The curling smoke rose from the village, and several families lit up the lights.
