Monarch Night

Yan Nan had a peculiar expression: "As for this present cut... Duan Xiyang probably won’t mistake it. Do you think it resembles Wu Daotian’s work?"

Bi Changhong coughed awkwardly and said, "I also believe the one who struck must be Wu Daotian."

Yan Nan chuckled softly and said lightly, "Old Sixth, do you want to reconsider what you just said?"

Bi Changhong became even more embarrassed and said, "I didn’t mean to."

"Who else was there at the scene?"

"Shadow, Flame, Water, and Yu Han Yan, Xiong Jiang, and others; various inspections from the headquarters."

Bi Changhong said.

"And where is Wu Daotian, who made the move?"

"He vanished."

"They say that someone saw him draw his sword at that moment, leaping directly into the air, and without any warning, cut down, wiping out the Ning Family Mansion."

"Then Wu Daotian disappeared, not even saying a word."

"Have the casualties been checked?"

"... Checked. The people inside the Ning Family Mansion, starting from the gatekeeper all the way inside to the guards and family members... none survived. The people inside were of low cultivation..."

Duan Xiyang said.

As he spoke, he glanced sideways at Ning Zai Fei, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

Everyone understood the meaning behind Duan Xiyang’s words.

Why was the cultivation of the Ning Family members so low? Because Ning Zai Fei never cared or asked about anything, he turned a blind eye, allowing things to develop naturally. The family was actually established by his women and children, who took Ning Zai Fei back as an ancestor to be worshipped...

This guy was emotionally detached, indifferent to everything, treating his sons and grandsons like strangers.

Whether they were geniuses or wastes, whether they became successful or not, he ignored them all.

It could be said that this family having Ning Zai Fei as an ancestor was truly unlucky.

Now, they didn’t even have to worry about bad luck, as they were all collectively sent to heaven by one cut!

"This is probably the guardian’s retaliation for Ning Zai Fei’s incident..." When Duan Xiyang said this, his mood and expression were complex.

The other Vice Sect Masters present also wore varied, complex expressions.

Indeed.

It was always others who offended the people of the Wei Wo Zheng Sect, and then the Wei Wo Zheng Sect would seek revenge and massacre them.

Brutal, killing men, women, and children alike.

This was the usual operation of the Wei Wo Zheng Sect!

But it was never imagined that such retaliation would one day befall the people of the Wei Wo Zheng Sect.

"But Wu Daotian isn’t a Guardian, is he?"

Bi Changhong was puzzled: "When have you ever heard of Wu Daotian joining the Guardians? He hasn’t appeared for so many years?"

Duan Xiyang said, "Heh, does Wu Daotian need to report to Vice Sect Master Bi if he joins the Guardians? Who do you think you are?"

Bi Changhong was in a phase of open-minded reasoning right now, snorted, and said, "I’m the Old Sixth, so what? If Boss Duan decides where to rank me, you’d have to call me Sixth Brother! Once the Big Brother comes out of retreat, I’ll propose to him to add you in, and I want to hear you call me Sixth Brother for a lifetime!"

Duan Xiyang angrily exclaimed, "I swear, for the rest of my life, just to avoid calling you Brother, I won’t form brotherly bonds with you guys!"

"That’s not up to you." Bi Changhong said, "Under the Big Brother’s fist, I don’t believe you can refuse."

Duan Xiyang was really hit hard.

Because that fist... truly couldn’t be resisted!

So he stayed silent, holding back his anger.

Yan Nan pinched his brow, looking pained. Right now, aren’t we discussing the matter of Ning Zai Fei’s family? How did you all deviate from the topic back to a matter from tens of thousands of years ago?

"Is there no one alive in the Ning Family?" Yan Nan had to pull the topic back himself.

"Apart from those outside... there’s no one alive inside. But we don’t know how many are outside; anyway, those who aren’t at home are definitely alive."

Bai Jing said.

Vice Sect Master Bai’s tone was quite indifferent. Even if you didn’t listen carefully, there was a sense of schadenfreude.

Yan Nan was a little surprised and looked at Bai Jing.

What’s wrong with this guy today?

On the bed, the Heavenly King Flute’s face was as pale as gold paper, panting: "Vice Sect Master... Boss Duan... I, I damn well..."

The Heavenly King Flute pounded the bed: "I have no grudge or enmity with Wu Daotian! What right does he have! What gives him the right!"

Bai Jing said coolly, "You owe the Netherworld ten billion lives, Wu Daotian probably owes quite a bit too."

Bai Jing said...

Bi Changhong frowned and pushed Bai Jing out: "Go outside and calm down for a while."

"I damn well..."

Now Yan Nan thought it through, opened his mouth, and cursed.

Then he said to Bai Jing: "Just go outside first."

Bai Jing said, "Heh..."

Turned and wagged out, with a defiant and resentful demeanor.

Yan Nan sighed, feeling even more melancholy: Damn, I forgot that Yin Shen Palace is of Bai Jing’s apprentice’s apprentice’s lineage... so Yemo belongs to Bai Jing’s faction...

Now that the Heavenly King Flute assassinated Yemo, Bai Jing hadn’t said anything; it seems he’s been holding back a grudge for a long time.

Looking at that statement today, each one like a little knife, stabbing hard into the Heavenly King Flute’s heart...

Damn, these relationships are truly complex...

"But the key now is not why Wu Daotian struck, but rather to find Wu Daotian. This bastard came to our Wei Wo Zheng Sect Headquarters to kill, what does he take this place for?"

Yan Nan ordered, "Find Wu Daotian!"

"He’s likely already gone."

Bi Changhong said, "I know Wu Daotian’s style of action, his purpose this time was Ning Zai Fei, this is certain."

"Generally, when he wants to kill someone, if he can’t find the person, he’ll go kill those related to them, directly do the job, and then wait outside in a safe place for the person he wants to kill to come seek him for revenge."

"So for Wu Daotian to enter our headquarters, he must have snuck in; after coming in, he made only one cut, then immediately left. After all, he understands what this place is... If surrounded here, even if he were an expert like Jun Lin, it would be a dead end!"
