C491 He Started to Guess

He knew about the Yue Family. This family was not weak. It was not easy to destroy it. Of course, if the Martial Saint Bureau did it, it would be effortless.

However, he was sure that the Martial Saint Bureau did not do it.

Without his order, no one in the Martial Saint Bureau would dare to do anything reckless. Who did it?

Could it be that a new force had risen in the time he did not know?

With doubts in his heart, he continued to listen carefully.

Soon, he heard a relatively gentle voice say mysteriously, “Speaking of which, the Phoenix Palace is also involved in this matter.”

“Phoenix Palace?”

The rough voice said in confusion, “What does this have to do with the Phoenix Palace? Was it done by the Phoenix Palace? That’s impossible. Although the Phoenix Palace is developing well, it is impossible to destroy the Yue Family.”

Anyone in Ning Province knew the background of the Yue Family.

It was a thousand-year family. How could it be destroyed by a force that had been established for less than half a year? Wasn’t that a joke?

Of course, the Martial Saint Bureau was different. After all, the master of the Martial Saint Bureau was too heaven-defying.

However, there were only one or two people like that. It was unlikely that the master of the Phoenix Palace was as heaven-defying as the master of the Martial Saint Bureau.

“Listen to me slowly.”

The gentle voice said, “Do you remember the marriage between Lin Qianxiao and Li Xiaoran from the Lin Family of Ning Province five years ago?”

“Of course I remember,” the rough voice said, “That incident was so big, how could I not remember it? However, they were ambushed halfway and died. Now, one of them is dead and the other is disabled. Why are you mentioning the Yue Family now?”

The gentle voice said, “That incident was done by Yue Linglong of the Yue Family.”

“What?” The rough voice said, “Missy Yue? How could that be?”

“It was her,” the other voice continued, “Some people found out about it. The Palace of the Phoenix printed it on the newspaper and spread it everywhere. All the cultivators in Ning Province City knew about it. The people from the Li and the Yue Families must have known about it too.”

“So, that night, the Li and the Yue Families joined hands and destroyed the Yue Family. I heard that the Palace of the Phoenix was involved too, but I don’t know if it was true.”

The two voices talked about something else, but Long Zixuan didn’t listen to them anymore. He was lost in thoughts.

Why did he feel that the Palace of the Phoenix printed the Yue Linglong’s actions on the newspaper and spread it to everyone? Why did the Li and the Yue Families join hands to destroy the Yue Family? Was it a conspiracy?

It was a huge and meticulous conspiracy against the Yue Family.

Was the Phoenix Palace against the Yue Family? Or rather, the Phoenix Palace hated the Yue Family.

Only hatred could make them do such a thing.

Or was it just his imagination?

Long Zixuan stood up from the chair and left the teahouse. In a flash, he appeared in a room.

He put one hand behind his back and stood up straight. His voice sounded faintly, “Blood Moon.”

“Your subordinate is here.”

A dark light flashed. Blood Moon kneeled in front of Long Zixuan respectfully. His head was slightly bowed, and his pair of wings that were not long at all were folded behind his back.

Long Zixuan squinted his eyes and said, “Go and investigate the owner of the Phoenix Palace.”

“Yes, Master.”

Before Blood Moon could get up and leave, he heard him continue, “Then go and investigate the matter of the Yue Family being destroyed by Lin Li’s and Lin Hai’s families.”

“Yes, master.”

Blood Moon’s voice was cold. It was the same as before. There was no fluctuation at all.

Long Zixuan hummed and said, “Alright, you can go now.”

Blood Moon said ‘yes’ again and then stood up from the ground. His body moved and he disappeared.

Long Zixuan walked to the round table in the room and sat down. He took an empty teacup and looked at the pattern outside the teacup.

For some reason, after hearing the conversation between the two, he suddenly had a ridiculous feeling.

Would the annihilation of the Yue Family be related to Little Feather?

But if it was really related to Little Feather, did that mean that Little Feather was related to the Phoenix Palace as well?

After thinking about it, he couldn’t control his excitement. If it was really done by Little Feather, did that mean that he could see her soon?

Thinking about how he could see Little Feather soon, Long Zixuan was excited and scared.

Time passed quickly.

When he came back to his senses, he realized that it was already dark.

Unknowingly, he had been thinking about Little Feather for the whole afternoon. He felt sad, sweet, and bitter at the same time.

Long Zixuan sighed. Maybe when Little Feather thought about him, she would only hate him.

He suppressed his thoughts and stood up from the chair. He walked to the open window and looked outside.

It was getting late and the moon had come out. The blood moon had been gone for a long time, so it was probably going to come back soon.

As soon as he thought about it, there was a slight fluctuation in the room.

Blood Moon knelt on one knee behind him and said coldly, “Master, I am back.”

Long Zixuan raised his eyelids and nodded. He turned around and looked at Blood Moon indifferently. He asked, “How is the investigation going?”

Although he was calm and didn’t show any emotion, his heart was extremely nervous. He was so nervous that he started to clench his fists.

Blood Moon lowered his head and said, “The master of the Phoenix Palace only has one name, Yu Feng. We can’t find anything else. We can’t even find his gender, age, or cultivation level.”

“However, I received news that a few days ago, the Hao Yuan Academy made an exception and recruited a super disciple. Apparently, he’s the disciple of Vice-Principal Ye. He’s also called Yu Feng. I wonder if he has anything to do with the master of the Phoenix Palace.”

Yu Feng?

Long Zixuan felt disappointed. Wasn’t it his little feather?

That was true. His little feather was still so young and he had always kept him under his wings. How could he have anything to do with the Phoenix Palace?

Maybe not.

Long Zixuan’s heart was ignited with hope again. Maybe it was her other identity? Or maybe she was a friend that he had made.

Thinking about it now, Yu Feng’s name was very similar to his little feather.

Blood Moon’s voice sounded in his ears, “As for the matter of the Lin Family and the Yue Family joining hands to destroy the Yue Family, it was indeed because of Yue Linglong. She attacked the daughter of the Lin Family, Lin Qianxiao, and the young master of the Li Family, Li Xiaoran. Lin Qianxiao died without a corpse, and Li Xiaoran’s legs were crippled. Therefore, the ancestors of the Lin Family and the Li Family joined hands to destroy the Yue Family.”

Long Zixuan frowned and shook his head after he finished speaking. He said, “It shouldn’t be that simple.”

“Ningzhou City has three major clans. This situation has been going on for thousands of years. If Yue Linglong only attacked the juniors of the Lin and Li Clans, and killed one of them, then the Lin and Li Clans would only force the Yue Clan to hand over Yue Linglong.”

“Even if the Yue Clan doesn’t hand over Yue Linglong, they will still have other ways to solve it. The three clans seem to be on good terms, but they are actually fighting against each other. Therefore, no two clans will trust each other completely. They will only join hands and destroy the other clan.”

“They don’t have the courage to break the situation that has been going on for thousands of years. As for the two Clan’s Ancestors, they are nothing but a joke.”

“The two Clan’s Ancestors will reach their end in half a year. At this time, they should be closing their doors and cultivating in seclusion. They won’t come out at all. How can they fight over such a small matter? I am afraid that the Clan Heads of the two Clans won’t let this matter disturb their Ancestors.”

“So, there must be a mastermind behind this matter. It must be the mastermind that pushed the Lin and Li Clans to join hands and destroy the Yue Clan. Otherwise, the Lin and Li Clans wouldn’t have the courage to do so.”

Long Zixuan clenched his fists and analyzed the matter clearly.

He knew the Thousand Year Clan too well. The three clans had been fighting against each other for thousands of years. If they joined hands, it would be a joke. They were afraid that the other two clans would plot to destroy them, and they were afraid that they would fall into their trap.

Without any trust, how could they work together?

More importantly, a family that had been passed down for thousands of years was definitely a big force even among the same family. Under normal circumstances, how could the other families want to destroy the family?

Blood Moon’s expression didn’t change as he said coldly, “But my lord, Lin Li and his family’s ancestors are already half-step True Condensation cultivators. How could they be used by the mastermind behind the scenes?”

“Not used.”

Long Zixuan continued, “It should be a deal. The most unstoppable thing is only benefits. Although Lin Li and his family’s ancestors are half-step True Condensation cultivators, they still have benefits that they can’t resist. The mastermind behind the scenes must have given them some benefits that they can’t resist. That’s why they have the determination to destroy the Moon Family.”

Blood Moon said in confusion, “They are almost three hundred years old. Maybe they will die one day. Is there any benefit that they can’t resist?”

Long Zixuan glanced at him indifferently. The Blood Demon Clan’s young lord didn’t understand human nature at all. No wonder he could only be his subordinate and not his master.

“It’s exactly because they might die one day that they can’t resist some benefits. For example, their lifespan and cultivation. Once they reach the True Condensation Realm, they can live another two hundred years and have the chance to reach a higher realm. In short, even if they are about to die, they still have a lot of temptations that they can’t resist.”

Long Zixuan understood human nature too well. Maybe it was because of this that he was able to create such a large force in the Sacred Martial Bureau so quickly.

He also managed to make powerful subordinates like Blood Moon.

Blood Moon didn’t really understand what Long Zixuan said. He still couldn’t understand why he was tempted even though he was about to die. It was really amazing.
