City Lord's Mansion
"Lord City...Lord City, something terrible has happened! Qiwu Pavilion...Qiwu Pavilion..."
While Jun Feijue and the others were still on their way, someone had already gone to Zhen Yun to report, "The people of Qiwu Pavilion have all been wiped out, and even the building has been burned to the ground, leaving not a single plank."
"I knew it! I knew these bastards were going to kill people, but I didn't expect them to be so ruthless!"
Zhen Yun frantically scratched his hair, saying indignantly, "It seems I have no choice but to leave this time. What sins have I committed to deserve running into these jinxes!"
"Report... Lord City Lord, they... they're back!" At that moment, another servant came running over.
"Quickly, have everyone go out of the city to greet them!"
"Well," Zhen Yun immediately composed himself and gave an order to lead everyone out.
On both sides of the entrance, everyone from the City Lord's Mansion stood ramrod straight with utmost seriousness, as if afraid that if they made a mistake, they would be slapped to death with a wok.
"We sincerely welcome you back to the city."
So when Jun Feijue and the others returned, they were greeted by this solemn and exaggerated scene.
"My lords, you have finally..."
The city lord, who had been all smiles, couldn't help but shudder when he saw Jin Yue, who was almost covered in blood. He moved slightly to the side before saying, "You're finally...you're back. Dinner is all prepared. I thought you must be hungry."
"Yes, yes, I'm hungry."
Jun Feijue, who had been keeping his eyes closed, immediately woke up upon hearing this and nodded with expectant eyes.
"It is my good fortune that you do not mind, Miss."
Among this group, only Jun Feijue can keep Zhen Yun calm.
Jun Feijue was already good-looking, and now that Di Moyu and a few other murderous maniacs were standing in comparison, Zhen Yun found her even more pleasing to the eye and cute.
He stole a glance at Jin Yue, who was covered in blood, and a look of pity appeared in his eyes as he looked at Jun Feijue.
Such a cute little girl is hanging out with a bunch of scoundrels; she'll probably be led astray in the future. It's really pitiful.
Bangdu, Zhou family
"Master, something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened!"
The servant responsible for guarding the life jade tablets ran into the study in a panic, "The life jade tablets of the three core direct descendants and the thirteenth elder Zhou Li are all shattered!"
This life jade tablet is a special kind of mystical energy storage device that can detect the activity of mystical energy. If the owner of the mystical energy is alive, the jade tablet will remain intact; otherwise, it will shatter.
"What!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ren, the head of the Zhou family, was shocked and immediately got up and walked towards the memorial tablet room. "Notify all elders to convene a family meeting. An elder has actually died. This is a big deal!"
"yes!"
The matter was of great importance, so the servant immediately obeyed and left quickly.
"Master, you've finally arrived."
Upon seeing Zhou Ren approach, the administrator immediately stepped forward and said, "Take a look! So many of them are broken; this is definitely not an accident!"
"Damn it, who is so bold as to dare to attack my Zhou family!"
These core members of the families are all direct descendants of the Zhou family and are the future hope of the Zhou family. They have all been cultivated with great effort, especially the elders. Losing one of them would be an immeasurable loss!
"Patriarch, is Zhou Li really dead?"
Upon arriving at the conference hall, all the elders asked with tense expressions, "Who is the core disciple who died?"
Since they were all direct descendants of the Zhou family, they were all, to varying degrees, blood relatives or younger relatives of the elders present, and no one wanted their child to die.
