Chapter 155 That Night

The news that the Xiao family was wiped out spread quickly.

This was not a trivial matter, and coupled with the imperial power adding fuel to the flames, this also resulted in the news spreading throughout the entire Jia Ma Empire in just a few days.

The mysterious strong man who attacked the Xiao family also caused a lot of speculation, especially after the battlefield hundreds of miles away from Wutan City was discovered, the rumors became more and more mysterious.

Because judging from the traces on the battlefield, the person who took action was at least a Douwang Douhuang level expert.

For this reason, many people rushed over to pay their respects. There were so many people that they caused serious damage to the first scene.

Among them, there was a middle-aged mercenary with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks who was very lucky. Like everyone else, he curiously explored the deep cracks in the ground.

Unlike others who were simply amazed, he found a Na Ring!

His heart was beating rapidly at this moment. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, the man held the ring and stuffed it into his crotch. He couldn't hide the ecstasy on his face.

"Old Zhang, why are you laughing? Did you find a treasure?"

"No, I remembered a happy thing."

"What's going on?"

"I'm going to be a father."

It was simply fooled, and the mercenary who asked the question didn't think much about it. The strong men fighting here were not fools. How could they leave behind trophies? They were just here to gain experience, so that they could brag in the future. No one has the intention of picking up leaks.

If you really want to find out, it would be better to sneak into Xiao's house secretly.

Unfortunately, the Xiao family has been blocked by the City Lord's Mansion.

The lucky Lao Zhang silently considered that it was time to change his life to a place where no one knew him.

Imperial capital.

Xiao Yan, who had changed his appearance, had just arrived on a flying monster, feeling the prosperity of the Holy City and looking in the direction of Yunlan Sect.

"Nalan Yanran, I'm here as promised, are you ready?"

Thinking of the three-year appointment in a few months, Xiao Yan clenched his fists. He couldn't wait to wash away the shame.

After staring for a few seconds, Xiao Yan looked away and walked towards Miter Auction House.

Suddenly, the conversation of several passers-by attracted his attention.

"Have you heard? Something happened to the Xiao family in Wutan City. Everyone was wiped out."

"Which Xiao family?"

"You don't even know this, it's the Xiao family where Xiao Yan, who turned from genius to waste, belongs."

"You think it might be the Yunlan Sect who did it? I heard that Xiao Yan and the Yunlan Sect's young master Nalan Yanran had quite a feud. When they broke off the engagement, they made a three-year agreement without thinking of their own abilities. "

Abba Abba, Abba Abba.

A group of people were discussing the hottest topics at the moment and making various speculations.

Suddenly, the person with the loudest voice was grabbed by the collar from behind. The force was so strong that he staggered on the spot and almost lost his balance.

"What kind of dog doesn't have eyes?"

I cursed half of it and swallowed the rest silently.

All he saw was an ordinary-looking young man with red eyes, and he could feel the surging anger and murderous intention that was about to explode, making people feel guilty unconsciously.

"What did you just say? Say it again!"

Ignoring the strange looks from passers-by around him, Xiao Yan grabbed the man and shouted sternly.

"Where is that sentence?"

"Xiao family, you said that the Xiao family was wiped out!"

"Ah, yes, yes, this matter has been spread throughout the Gama Empire now. Everyone knows that Gaga is miserable. I heard that when the City Lord's Mansion helped collect the corpses, a big hole was dug and it was almost filled."

boom!

Before the man could finish his words, he was punched to the ground by the boy in black.

"You're really bullying my wife."

Just when he couldn't bear it any longer and wanted to resist, he saw the young man in black's fighting spirit turning into wings and already rising into the sky.

Fighting against the strong? !

Cold sweat flowed down.

In the sky, Xiao Yan has handed over his body to Yaochen's control.

"Teacher, hurry up, please!"

A low voice sounded from my heart, very depressing.

Yaochen took control of his body, sighed softly, and hurried on as fast as he could, while also constantly comforting and persuading.

"Xiao Yan, calm down. I understand how you feel now, but there is something you must consider clearly. This Soul Palace is probably coming for our master and disciples. The Xiao family just suffered the disaster of Chiyu. It is very likely that They are still in Wutan City, waiting for you to fall into a trap."

"You must think clearly, keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood. Only if you are alive can you hope to avenge the Xiao family!"

"Of course, if you have to go, my teacher will accompany you. In the final analysis, this matter has nothing to do with me."

Xiao Yan didn't reply and remained silent.

Yaochen said no more and accelerated towards Wutan City.

He understood Xiao Yan's feelings. People are all emotional. Many times he knew that there were tigers in the mountains, but he still had to go to Tiger Mountains. If Xiao Yan could treat Xiao Yan with indifference even if his family was destroyed, he would not accept him as a disciple.

The scenery on both sides was flying back, with lightning speed, and Yao Chen raised his speed to the limit.

After half a day, the outline of Wutan City could be seen from a distance.

At this moment, Xiao Yan finally spoke.

"Teacher, stop it. You are right. I was impulsive. I have to inform my eldest and second brothers as well as Xiao Yu and the others who are going to Canaan College as soon as possible. As long as we are still here, there is still hope for the Xiao family! "

Hearing this, Yao Chen finally showed a look of relief.

He could understand the rash return to Wutan City, but he didn't agree with it. He was quite satisfied that Xiao Yan could calm down so quickly and suppress his hatred in his heart.

"The notification is not urgent for the time being. We cannot return to Wutan City openly, but sneaking in, with my current mental strength, there is still hope. We only heard about the Xiao family. If we want to find out the truth, we must You have to go in and take a look.”

"Teacher, is it risky?"

"Don't worry, I still have some concealment methods as a teacher. Just control your emotions."

"I understand, please teacher."

Yao Chen nodded and immediately started taking action.

Not far away, he battled wits and courage with the air all the way, until late in the evening, he finally entered Wutan City and sneaked into the ruined Xiao family.

There has been no danger, and Yao Chen has gradually become aware of a problem.

"Those people must have left. Judging from the traces on the scene, it was indeed the work of the Soul Palace. Let's go to the place where the corpses were collected and have a look."

"Um."

Xiao Yan responded in a deep voice.

The death pit is not far away, just two or three miles outside the city. There is no one guarding the city lord's palace here. Under the hazy night, the messy corpses pile up like mountains, which looks very scary.

No one who is timid would dare to come to this scene easily.

After angrily killing several mercenaries who touched the corpses at night, Xiao Yan regained control of his body and fell to his knees with a 'pop'.

In this pit, he saw familiar faces, and he felt that it was because of himself that he caused them trouble. For a moment, he felt a strong sense of guilt and suppressed his anger. He gritted his teeth and lowered his head. I feel guilty.

The medicine dust also floated out, also silent.

He is also responsible for this matter.

But soon, Yao Chen discovered something unusual.

"Xiao Yan, no, there's something wrong!"

When Yao Chen raised his hand, a corpse flew up with the power of his soul.

Under Xiao Yan's puzzled gaze, a bit of soul power rushed into the 'corpse', as if it had pierced an invisible film. The originally stiff and white corpse suddenly jumped up, waving his hand to fight back.

After seeing the people on the ground clearly, he stopped in time and looked at the surrounding environment. He was frightened and shocked, but also confused.

"Third Young Master? What's going on?"

"I don't know, Xiao Ming, please slow down for a while and we'll talk about the rest later."

Xiao Yan could recognize this person as the son of a steward of the Xiao family. He was not very familiar with him, but he could also name him.

Yaochen ignored them, and his spiritual power spread out, carrying the corpses and flying out, repeating the previous actions.

Soon, forty or fifty people stood up in the originally quiet and cold open space.

From the initial anger, to confusion and fear, to now the sadness and endless sobbing.

"That's all. There is good news that is not good news. I didn't find your father's body. They were able to survive because someone secretly used spiritual power to simply seal their life breath, causing them to fall into a trap. It’s like a state of suspended animation, even if we don’t come over, they will gradually wake up in a few days.”

Xiao Yan was slightly relieved when Xiao Zhan was not found.

I thought that no one from the Xiao family would survive, but dozens of them survived, which was already a surprise.

Xiao Yan suppressed his doubts for the time being and looked at the old man in front of the crowd.

"First Elder, what happened to the Xiao family that night?"

The sudden change in the family has caused the Xiao family, which was not united before, to change at this moment and put aside their previous prejudices.

The great elder looked away from the pit, his sad eyes gradually filled with anger.

"They are a group of mysterious people wearing black robes. There are about a dozen of them. They are very strong. We tried our best to fight, but we were easily defeated by them. The gap was like a chasm. We could only watch helplessly as our clansmen were slaughtered. "

"In the end, only me, the second child, the third child and the clan leader were left. A man in black robe asked us about the whereabouts of the ancient jade. It was only then that we knew what their purpose was, just for that unfounded Bullshit ancient jade!”

"The clan leader cursed loudly, and then we were attacked by a vicious man. A man in black robes pierced our bodies with chains. At that time, I only felt that my consciousness was swallowed up in an instant, and what happened next is unknown."

The eldest elder of the Xiao family shook his head and confided in endless hatred.

But he was also confused about being able to be resurrected through 'reincarnation from dirty soil'.

Xiao Yan asked other people, and the results they got were the same. They were all killed neatly by a man in black robes, died in a daze, and were resurrected in a daze.

"Teacher, this is the matter"

"Well, there are many doubts. Maybe, next time you meet that Chen Guan, you will get some answers from him. Calculating the time, he should be in Wutan City at that time."

"Let's put this matter on hold for now. What you need to do now is to settle the Xiao family. We are determined not to stay in Wutan City any longer."

Yao Chen guessed some of the inside story, but there were also many things that he couldn't figure out.

The Soul Palace attacked the Xiao family not because of him and Xiao Yan, but because of that ancient jade?

This made most of the guilt in the two people's hearts disappear, leaving only anger and doubt.

Xiao Yan nodded and began to think, how to arrange this group of people?
