C221 The Beginning of Chaos (Part II)

At this moment, almost everyone in the city had already left their rooms, and was looking at the shocking scene in the north of the city. As for some people with high martial skills, they even jumped onto the rooftops, wanting to know what had happened, but the tall city walls erected in the north of the city blocked most of the view, and the only thing they could see was the giant mushroom cloud towering above, as well as the rolling thunder clouds in the sky.

"Brother Tian, what happened?" Murong Fenghuang followed her husband out of the room, and when she saw the sturdy scene at the north side of the city, she asked.

"I don't know. Go back to your room and get dressed, let's go take a look!" Situ Qingtian said with a serious face.

"Do you need to call my father?" Murong Fenghuang nodded, and then seemed to remember something, so he asked.

"No need to shout, I'll be right here!" Let's go over and take a look! " The one who spoke was Murong Badao, he brought his son Murong Kuanglong and walked out of the other room. He was already fully dressed, and even had a weapon in his hand.

"Father-in-law, you are experienced and knowledgeable. Do you know what happened there?" Situ Qingtian asked.

"I don't know, this is the first time I've seen something like this. But I'm sure that if he could unleash this kind of power, his power would definitely be at least rank 8, or even rank 9!" Murong Badao shook his head, and said with a serious face.

"Nine?" "Then doesn't that mean ?" Situ Qingtian said with a face full of shock.

"That's right, the world has long since set down the rules. When one's power reaches rank 9, under special circumstances, those experts who have reached rank 9 are not allowed to use skills above rank 9. Once used, it is very likely to harm the innocent poor!" Their actions might cause trouble for them! " Murong Badao continued.

"Sigh, let's go over and take a look. I wonder which force's expert it is." Situ Qingtian sighed with emotion.

"You'll know once you see it!" "Let's go!" Murong Fenghuang continued with her husband's words.

Fengyang City, branch of the Surveillance Council.

"What happened?" The Surveillance Council had also keenly sensed the energy undulations, and immediately went out to investigate. After going through another severe concussion, the relieving stroke felt a lingering fear in her heart, and the scene in front of his eyes, was something he had never seen before. As the highest commander level existence of the Surveillance Council, such a huge event had occurred within her domain, and he had not noticed it at all.

"Reporting to Lord relieving stroke, our subordinates are rushing to the north of the city to investigate, the people who have been investigating have not returned." A Surveillance Council in charge of night duty reported.

"Something big is going to happen!" relieving stroke said with sorrow in his voice.

"Master, the person who went to check on the alarm clock has returned. Would you like to see him first?" The centurion asked.

"See you!" There was no way the relieving stroke would still be half asleep right now. If the Supervising Disciple was able to handle this, and he did not have a single explanation, then he would probably have to return to his dorm for further training.

Not long after, a man dressed in black ran over to relieving stroke and kneeled on one knee as he saluted: "My respects to Lord relieving stroke!"

"Exempt from the formalities, what happened exactly? "Speak!" The relieving stroke urged.

"Sir, our men went to the north of the city, and found out that the northern garrison had encountered an attack from an unknown force." Sir, our men went to the north of the city, and found out that the northern garrison had encountered an unknown force, and the enemy had shot from a distance with a bow. The person explained everything that the team had seen and heard in a concise manner without missing a single detail.

"Then have our people checked outside the city?" The shock in relieving stroke's heart was greater than his doubt, what kind of place was this? It could be said that this small city was a prefecture city in the Empire's hinterland. At the larger city, this was the central point of communication between the Empire's north and south.

To be able to attack a city in such an important location, that was completely unintentional. Who had the guts to rebel at the height of the empire? The most important thing was that he hadn't realized it before. This was a huge crime of dereliction of duty.

"Yes!" However, we did not manage to find any trace of him. Furthermore, it is already late in the night and our people have not found any trace of him leaving! " The spy nodded in reply and explained the investigation.

"How many people can be sure?" relieving stroke was also confused, he suppressed the helplessness in his heart and continued to ask.

"This... "No, after we went there, we only found a few dozen obvious marks on the road, and no footprints at all. However, judging from the number of arrows released, there are at least a thousand people there!" The spy said helplessly.

He also wanted to make things clearer. After all, being a member of the Surveillance Council, he had long been told that uncertain words such as' possible ',' perhaps', 'probable', and so on could not be used in reports. Everything had to be answered truthfully, and no one was allowed to arbitrarily guess what information they wanted to report. However, regarding the number of people on the other side, this spy was also quite speechless. Their team had already searched back and forth many times, and in the end, they could only judge by the number of arrows they used to attack.

"A thousand people? This was not a small number! And they were in the heart of the empire, who were they? Why did he suddenly appear here? And why would they attack a prefectural city? " relieving stroke asked himself. He was asking himself more of these questions.

relieving stroke suddenly realised that he was completely stunned by this group of people. Furthermore, if they really had so many soldiers and horses, how could he not have noticed in advance? But if the city wasn't attacked by so many men, how could thousands of arrows have been shot at the same time?

"Did your subordinate discover something else?" When the spy saw that the relieving stroke asked a bunch of questions that he could not answer himself, he fell into deep thoughts and did not tell him to go on, nor did he have any intention of continuing. This caused the spy to feel embarrassed, and so he broke the situation.

"What is it!" relieving stroke rubbed his forehead and asked.

"When we were being attacked, there were suddenly some people from the Sword League outside the city. Their people wanted to enter the city, but they were blocked by the garrison, and because they suspected that the people from the Sword League were colluding with the attackers, the city guards attacked them!" The spy revealed the other piece of information he had learned.

"There's actually such a thing?" "And then?" relieving stroke immediately felt that something was amiss and quickly asked.

"After Commander Ni brought his men over, he let the people from the Sword League enter the city. However, after the people from the Sword League entered the city, the people who made the surprise attack no longer moved!" The spy continued.

"Sword League? Weren't their people already in the city? Could it be a group of people from the Sword League? " The relieving stroke continued to question.

"No, it's the group of Sword League's people that entered the city a few days ago. The city guards did not see them leave the city, but they suddenly came from outside and were in a hurry to enter the city!" The spy shook his head.

"What about the fire in the city?" relieving stroke muttered to himself for a while, then turned his head to ask centurion at the side.

"Reporting to the lord, according to the report from the spy, the place where the fire was set up is the encampment of the Sword League, the scene is a mess, the fire is strong, it is impossible to extinguish it, from the door, the courtyard is filled with bodies, probably their enemies have already avenged them and attacked them with murder and arson." The centurion answered.

"It's this Sword League again? Isn't this a bit too much of a coincidence? " relieving stroke's eyebrows were all knitted together as he asked in confusion.

"Master, do you mean that someone is targeting the Sword League?" centurion's mind was quite flexible and immediately recognized a possibility.

"We can't rule out that possibility. Otherwise, how would we know that the people from Sword League are not in the encampment?" relieving stroke said, and with his experience, he felt that the possibility of that was very high.

"Reporting to the lord, there were spies reporting the discovery of a large-scale gang fight near Fortune Street!" The centurion did not continue, but suddenly thought of something, and reported.

"It's the middle of the night. These people really know how to mess around. Where are these hoodlums this time?" When the relieving stroke heard the word 'gang fight', he immediately thought of what happened in the day and thought that the few thugs in the city were causing trouble again.

"He's not a hoodlum!" The centurion denied it.

"Hmm? "What's going on?" relieving stroke immediately felt that something was amiss and asked.

"One of the fighters is from the city guard, and the other is naked, with no hair on his head and his body full of new wounds, but judging from the moves, he should be from the Sword League. This is all thanks to the guards, they lit up the scene, otherwise we would not be able to identify him!" The centurion explained.

"Sword League again? Has Sword League provoked anyone recently? " relieving stroke now felt that this matter was all because of Sword League, so it was very likely that his enemies were plotting against them.

"Seems not! They were all fine when they arrived, but no one knew who they were arguing with! The only possibility is that they are the people from the Blood Illusion Valley. After all, they are the enmity of the world! " The centurion was also deep in thought along this line of thought.

"Then, have you sent people to the Blood Illusion Valley to take a look?" relieving stroke had long since heard of the grudges between the two great powers. Although he felt that they were not from Blood Illusion Valley's side, he could not eliminate all of them.

"I've seen it before, the people in Blood Illusion Valley are very strange tonight, there don't seem to be many people in their base, just like the Sword League, where most of the people left the base mysteriously!" centurion immediately replied.

"Send someone to investigate and see what they did tonight!" relieving stroke also felt that there was something wrong with these Blood Illusion Valley s, and immediately ordered.

"Yes, my lord!" Everyone answered in unison.

"It looks like I'll have to write to the imperial capital again!" I hope they can send someone who can take care of it, and let me have a lighter burden! " Watching the crowd leave, the relieving stroke muttered to herself.
