Monarch Night

With this thought, his chest puffed out even more. He stepped forward, standing ahead of everyone.

Dongfang Sansan sighed and said: "Haoran..."

"Ninth Brother, I’m here!"

Yu Haoran’s face was glowing with excitement.

"Back then, you hunted down Heavenly King Flute throughout the world... there’s more to that story after all."

Dongfang Sansan coughed and said: "I remember your Yu Family has a direct descendant named Yu Zhongge, right?"

Yu Haoran sensed something was amiss: "Ninth Brother... Yu Zhongge is a prodigy of our Yu Family’s younger generation and also part of our Southeast Life and Death Patrol Group... this, this... what happened?"

"Heavenly King Flute assassinated Yu Zhongge."

Dongfang Sansan said: "And along with him, Mo Gan Yun from the Mo Family, Jing Shuanggao from the Jing Family, and Life and Death Patrol Captain Fang Che also suffered assassination attempts."

Dongfang Sansan’s gaze circled around the faces of Mo Qingtian and Jing Yunlong from the Mo and Jing Families.

Mo Qingtian and Jing Yunlong instantly became tense.

Everyone knew the Life and Death Patrol Team was Ninth Lord’s prized group, carefully nurtured. Therefore, Mo Gan Yun, Jing Shuanggao, and others entering the Life and Death Patrol Team were greatly admired!

Because this directly promised a golden path, leading to a peak position in the future.

So Mo Qingtian and others had early on listed these entrants to the Life and Death Patrol Team as the first heirs in their family generation.

Of utmost importance.

Moreover, having personally understood this, they treated these individuals as treasures.

Now, hearing that their treasures were assassinated...

Each of them immediately panicked.

Mo Qingtian, a tall figure, stood up with a thump: "Ninth Lord, what’s going on? Mo Gan Yun was assassinated?"

"Jing Shuanggao was also assassinated?" Jing Yunlong had a furious expression.

But the most intense reaction came from Ningxue Sword: "What the hell is Heavenly King Flute thinking? He’s looking for death, isn’t he tired of living!?"

Dongfang Sansan sighed and said: "The Life and Death Patrol Group was attacked, and the assailant turned out to be a cloud city figure like Heavenly King Flute. At first, I couldn’t figure out the reason, since although Heavenly King Flute was in the Southeast, he had no reason to harm a few juniors."

"Until..."

Dongfang Sansan glanced at Yu Haoran’s face with a bitter smile and said: "...until I remembered the grudges from your past. Perhaps this..."

Yu Haoran’s face turned purple with anger.

"Damn Ning Zai Fei!"

Yu Haoran now had only one thought, which was: capture Ning Zai Fei and beat him to death!

He understood it all.

Mo Gan Yun and the others were not Ning Zai Fei’s actual targets; they were just implicated by Yu Zhongge. And Yu Zhongge was implicated by himself.

Everything was his own fault.

With this in mind, Yu Haoran became even more furious.

Especially when he saw Mo Qingtian and Jing Yunlong’s eyes, carrying a hint of dissatisfaction, looking at him, he felt even more uneasy.

"Don’t worry, none of them died."

Dongfang Sansan said as everyone breathed a sigh of relief: "But... Ning Zai Fei’s sword qi remains on them. You know such expert’s sword qi is difficult to eliminate, and there are no experts in the Southeast, so the kids... are still being tormented by the sword qi."

"Ning Zai Fei! Truly damn him!"

Everyone was gnashing their teeth.

"Therefore, you all need to visit and resolve the sword qi on the children. Meanwhile,"

Dongfang Sansan’s eyes showed an indescribable sharpness and calmly said: "Transmit my order, from this day forward, launch a continent-wide campaign to kill Ning Zai Fei!"

His words were clear, but they carried a mountain-like weight.

"Ning Zai Fei, having submitted a peace treaty and entered Guardian territory for business; violated the peace principles by acting in Guardian Southeast Headquarters, assassinating my Life and Death Patrol! This action breaches the bottom line, violates principles, breaks promises. Therefore, I issue Guardian Continent’s first ultimate death order, at any cost, the entire continent, hunt him down!"

On the side.

Yu Tianqi frowned and said: "Ninth Brother, Ning Zai Fei is a Guardian of Wei Wo Zheng Sect. If we hunt him... it will inevitably cause a violent reaction from Wei Wo Zheng Sect... if war breaks out..."

Dongfang Sansan firmly said: "If Yan Nan goes to war, then I’ll accompany him to full-scale war! In conclusion, Ning Zai Fei’s actions must be forcefully opposed, if we condone it this time, then... next time other demons of Wei Wo Zheng Sect can act so capriciously, neglecting rules to enter, then what would happen?"

"This breach cannot be opened! So Ning Zai Fei, must die!"

"This is the bottom line!"

Everyone straightened up uniformly, simultaneously accepting the order.

"Yes! Kill Ning Zai Fei throughout the continent! We accept the command!"

Dongfang Sansan said: "You all go to the Southeast, there’s another matter. That is... when Ning Zai Fei made his move, someone must have blocked him, or else these little guys would’ve died already."

"Someone who could stop Ning Zai Fei is naturally not an ordinary expert. Moreover, to stop Ning Zai Fei at such a time, even if they’re not ours, they must be our natural ally."

Dongfang Sansan said: "The person has done a good deed without leaving their name, but we cannot remain indifferent, as Guardians, we have never received someone’s favor without reciprocation. So..."

He said: "Find this person and express my gratitude properly. As for recruiting him into our camp, there’s no need to force it for now. The fact that he saved our people without showing himself, you should understand what he means... Therefore, let everything take its course."

Yu Haoran and the others agreed in unison: "Understood, we will remember."

Especially Yu Haoran, Mo Qingtian, and Jing Yunlong, who felt even more grateful towards this mysterious expert. They resolved in their hearts to thank him properly, and having a drink when meeting him was a necessity!

"You guys go then."

Dongfang Sansan pondered for a moment and said to Xue Fuxiao: "You should go as well, check the situation and return promptly."

Xue Fuxiao felt puzzled.

Hadn’t it been decided that I was going? Why the special mention in public?

He said: "Alright!"

With a wave of his hand: "Who will go with me?"

Consequently, Yu Haoran, Mo Qingtian, and Jing Yunlong stepped forward simultaneously.

Ningxue Sword also stepped forward: "I will go too!"

"You stay put!"

Dongfang Sansan’s eyes widened: "Why are you causing trouble!"

Ningxue Sword immediately felt extremely aggrieved.

Watching Xue Fuxiao and others leave, shooting up into the sky with a swoosh, he felt an endless frustration in his heart.

Why?

Why am I not allowed to go?

"Alright then, the remaining ones can go spar with the Wolf King. No weapons, just hand-to-hand combat; I’m emphasizing this again."

Dongfang Sansan’s words triggered a chorus of wails.

"Ninth Lord... can we rest for a few days..."

Those with high cultivation could still manage, but those with lower cultivation felt utterly dispirited. We might hold back against the wolf, but the Wolf King never gives us any leeway!

Moreover, these two wolves improve daily and also grow more agitated every day...

They hit harder and harder.

Every day, everyone ends up with bruises all over their bodies, scratched again and again by its claws.

"Silver Wolf can remain at headquarters for just over a month more."

Dongfang Sansan got up and left: "Therefore, during this month or so, it’s your last chance: improve your skills, and... learn how to handle super-level Demon Beasts. Such battles will not be rare in the future."

Once Dongfang Sansan left.

Those who had been complaining immediately swarmed towards the back mountain.

Those lagging behind kept cursing: "Damn, weren’t you guys complaining about the hardship and exhaustion? Why run so fast then?"

Those at the front grinned broadly.

Just as Ninth Lord said, time is short, and this is an opportunity for growth.

And after all the battles and trials these days, despite the discomfort, who didn’t feel their skills improve?

Compared to gaining strength, a bit of pain is nothing. Besides, there’s no life-threatening danger!

Complaining... was merely to trick others and get ahead in the queue...

There are more wolves than meat!

Dongfang Sansan left the hall and went to his room.

He closed the door and took out the Communication Jade from his chest.

His eyes flashed and he muttered: "Although you shouldn’t act now, you can’t just sit idle and get fat... It’s such a waste."

He then opened a communication page.

"Your son was assassinated by the Heavenly King Flute, and his injuries are severe. Recovering soon is unlikely. Don’t worry, I’ll handle this matter, just know it’s happening. No need to brood over it."

He sent the message.

Read it again.

A faint smile appeared on his lips, and even a hint of mischief flashed in his eyes.

Then, he put the Communication Jade aside and started attending to his affairs as if nothing happened.

After a while.

Suddenly, the Communication Jade began emitting invisible soul resonance waves towards Dongfang Sansan.

Wave after wave came urgently.

It was clear that the person on the other end was anxious, acting almost insane. You could feel that the Communication Jade might be destroyed.

Dongfang Sansan sighed: "Why is this person so anxious, it’s just a son being assassinated... he was in a coma for twenty years and you weren’t worried then..."

"Let’s leave it for a while."
