C484 A Pile of Corpses at the Door
Feng Yu’s expression was indifferent as she said, “It’s just a small trick.”
If Zi Ling saw her current appearance, she would definitely be unable to stop herself from cursing. She was acting so pretentiously.
Elder Li and Elder Lin were instantly speechless. A small trick? She had actually resolved the probing of a half-step True Condensation Realm expert so easily. They really couldn’t keep up with the times.
Elder Li nodded his head and said, “As expected, the younger generation is indeed scary. Little girl, you’re really amazing.”
Feng Yu’s expression was still indifferent as she said, “Elder Li, you are too kind.”
Elder Lin sighed and said, “Little girl, do you have any plans for the Broken Moon Family?”
Feng Yu’s eyebrows twitched as she said, “No need for plans. The Patriarchs of the Lin and Li Families will probably bring some people to the Moon Family tonight. Patriarchs, as long as you gather the other experts in the family and charge straight into the Moon Family, I will also gather the forces of the Phoenix Palace in Ning Province. We will advance together.”
Not needing a plan and just charging straight in? That was really simple and crude.
However, the two old men were obviously more concerned about the fact that the Patriarchs of the Lin and Li Family would bring some people to the Moon Family tonight.
Elder Li frowned and said in surprise, “Little girl, what did you just say? The Patriarchs of the Lin and Li Family will bring some people to the Moon Family tonight? What’s going on?”
Patriarch Lin was confused. Apparently, they didn’t know about Li Xiaoran and Lin Qianxiao.
Feng Yu blandly said, “I found out that Li Xiaoran and Lin Qianxiao were killed by Yue Linglong five years ago. That’s why I exposed it. I think the Patriarchs of the Li and Lin Families won’t sit by and do nothing.”
“What did you say? That was done by the Yue Family?”
Patriarch Lin’s eyes were wide open. He couldn’t believe it.
Patriarch Li also said in disbelief, “Little girl, are you sure that you didn’t do it to destroy the Yue Family?”
Feng Yu frowned and said, “Patriarchs, if I wanted to do it, I wouldn’t have told you about it after we agreed. I think you would have helped me even if it wasn’t done by the Yue Family. Why would I do it?”
The two old men nodded. Feng Yu was right. They couldn’t refuse the temptation of the Longevity Dan bead. So, she didn’t need to do it.
However, they still couldn’t believe that the Yue Family would dare to attack the Lin and Li Families at the same time.
Feng Yu saw their doubts. She didn’t say anything. She just took out a crystal and put it on the table.
“What is this?” Ancestor Lin was confused.
Of course, he knew that it was a crystal. He just couldn’t understand why the little girl took out the crystal.
Feng Yu said, “I caught a kid from the Yue Family yesterday and extracted his memory. There was a part about Lin Qianxiao and Li Xiaoran. I put that memory into this crystal. You two Ancestors don’t believe me, right? You can see the memory in this crystal.”
Ancestor Li picked up the crystal and sent his thoughts into it.
After a while, he opened his eyes and his eyes were full of anger.
He gritted his teeth and said angrily, “Damn the Yue Family! They dared to attack our Li Family. Don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
Ancestor Lin knew from his expression that the Yue Family did it. He wasn’t angrier than Ancestor Li.
The two Ancestors liked Li Xiaoran and Lin Qianxiao a lot. They didn’t know how long they had been sad about what happened five years ago.
They didn’t expect that it was the Yue Family that did it.
They felt guilty about destroying the Yue Family. However, after knowing what happened, they didn’t feel guilty anymore. They were full of anger.
Feng Yu stood up from the chair and said, “Two Ancestors, I will go back and gather some people. You should do it as soon as possible. Don’t waste any time.”
“Little girl, don’t worry. We won’t let anything happen to you.”
Elder Li gritted his teeth and spoke in a gloomy tone.
Feng Yu nodded and disappeared with a thought.
Elder Lin and Elder Li were stunned when they saw the place that was suddenly empty.
After a long time, Elder Li said with a sigh, “This little girl has a bright future. Her future will be beyond our imagination.”
Elder Lin nodded in agreement and said, “That’s right. So, we must be on good terms with her. We must not offend her. Maybe one day we will need to rely on her.”
Elder Li didn’t say anything and just nodded.
Yue Family.
Yue Zhengyang’s heart thumped when he saw the Feng Palace’s newspaper. He didn’t expect that the secret of the incident five years ago would be known by others and even leaked out.
Even he had seen the news. Then, the Patriarchs of the Lin and Li Families must have seen the news too.
According to the reputation of the Feng Palace in Ning Zhou City, no one would doubt the truth of the news. Then, the Lin and Li Families would believe it.
Since they believed it, the two families would come to the Yue Family for an explanation.
How should this be solved?
Yue Zhengyang was so angry that he almost roared. Who was it? Who leaked the news? He didn’t believe that it was the investigation of the Feng Palace.
After all, it had been five years and the Phoenix Palace had only risen for a few months. It was almost impossible to find out about this matter.
No, no matter how the Phoenix Palace knew about it, the most important thing for him now was to find a way to solve it.
Yue Zhenyang bit his teeth and tore the newspaper in his hand. He hurriedly pushed open the door and walked out. He wanted to gather all the elders and think of a countermeasure.
After walking out of the yard, Yue Zhenyang walked toward the front yard.
At this time, a disciple hurriedly walked toward him with a face full of panic. It seemed that something big had happened.
Could it be that the Lin Family and the Phoenix Palace had come to find him so quickly?
A trace of suspicion flashed across Yue Zhenyang’s heart. His dignified face became tense.
“Family Head, bad news, bad news…”
That disciple ran in front of Yue Zhenyang in panic. His legs went soft and he fell to the ground. Yue Zhenyang looked at him and felt a wave of irritation.
When the disciple was about to get up, he raised his legs and kicked the disciple’s shoulder. He kicked him hard and he fell to the ground again.
“What are you panicking for? What happened? Why did you become like this?”
The disciple was kicked to the ground. He didn’t dare to get up again. He said with a trembling voice, “Family Head, the Sixth and Seventh Elders who went out to collect money today, and the dozen or so disciples, were all… killed. Now, the corpses are thrown in front of our door.”
Yue Zhenyang felt his eyes go black. He closed his eyes and his body trembled. Then, he bent down and picked up the disciple on the ground.
He gritted his teeth and said with a gloomy face, “What did you say?”
The disciple was so scared that he swallowed his saliva. His legs felt weak. If it wasn’t for his clothes being grabbed by someone, he would have fallen to the ground.
He trembled in fear and said with a face that looked like he was about to cry. His breathing was rapid as he said, “Sixth Elder, Seventh Elder, and the dozen disciples were all… killed. Their corpses were thrown outside our Yue Family Fort.”
Yue Zhenyang’s legs went soft and he almost fell to the ground. He threw the disciple in his hand onto the ground and walked towards the gate with weak steps.
Before he got close, he heard the sorrowful roars of Fourth Elder and Ninth Elder, “Who is it? Who dares to kill people from our Yue Family? I will find out who did it. I will skin him and pull out his tendons. I will make him never be able to reincarnate.”
Yue Zhenyang stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
He forced himself to walk out of the door. Then, he saw Fourth Elder and Ninth Elder with sorrowful faces. They were holding a body that was black as coal in their arms.
He didn’t need to think much to know that it was Sixth Elder and Seventh Elder.
In front of them, there were more than a dozen black corpses. They were the disciples of the Yue Family.
The ones standing on the outermost side were a group of disciples of the Yue Family.
Sensing the arrival of Yue Zhenyang, the Fourth Elder and the Ninth Elder looked up at him and said, “Brother, you have to avenge the Sixth and Seventh Elder.”
Yue Zhenyang clenched his fists and said with red eyes, “Who did it? Who dares to touch the people of the Yue Family?”
The Fourth Elder and the Sixth Elder shook their heads. They were also called out by their disciples. After they came out, the bodies were already here, so they didn’t know who did it.
They also asked the disciple who found the bodies first, but that disciple seemed to be scared silly and couldn’t say a word. The hot-tempered Ninth Elder was furious and killed him with one palm.
So now, no one in the Yue Family knew who sent these bodies back.
However, it wasn’t hard to find out who did it. There must be someone in Ning Province who witnessed this. They just had to ask one by one and they would know who did it.
“No one knows who did it?”
Yue Zhenyang’s eyes swept around gloomily and said, “Who was guarding the door today? Ask him.”
After he finished speaking, a disciple stood up. He lowered his head and said with a trembling voice, “Family Head, I accidentally saw that group of people. They were wearing black clothes, but there was a strange pattern on the collar. That pattern seemed to be the pattern of the Phoenix Palace.”
The pattern of the Phoenix Palace was unique. Those who saw it would usually forget about it.
Yue Zhenyang squinted his eyes. He clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth, "Phoenix Palace… Damn it."
He couldn’t leave this faction.
