The "spectators" from afar arrived. The investigation team members had just gotten out of the car and hadn't even spoken when Wang Yao stepped forward with the fragment and questioned, "Our young master has already agreed to return and has set off, yet your investigation team sent experts to intercept him halfway. What's the reason for this!"
Looking at the uniquely patterned fragment, the investigation team members were at a loss for words.
These fragments, originally distinctive decorations on their uniforms, are heat-resistant and pressure-resistant, and now serve as evidence linking these attackers to them.
It wasn't that no one in the investigation team knew that someone was secretly following them, accompanying them under their own name, but they all turned a blind eye. Now that something has happened, they all stammered and couldn't speak up.
Whether they say they don't know or they say they don't know, they all bear inescapable responsibility.
"How interesting," Lu Jin'an said with his arms crossed, sneering, "On one hand, you keep urging people to return, and on the other hand, you send people to intercept and prevent them from going back. If they aren't intercepted, they're either tied up and taken back, and if they are, there's no way to reason with them. So, we, the Ninth District, are just supposed to be played like fools by you?"
The investigation team members' expressions changed. The team leader immediately stated that these individuals were unrelated to the investigation team and that they would investigate as soon as possible. The team leader looked at Chang Le, but Chang Le spoke first:
"Staying in District Nine means death, going back also means death, so I might as well die at home."
After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the direction of the Huilong Sect.
The investigation team naturally tried to stop them, but Ying Huaixia stepped forward and said to the team leader, "Team Leader Wang, I believe that the district is indeed in the wrong this time. Chang Le is in the Ninth District, so there's no need to rush to forcibly take him back now and hurt the harmony between the two sides. Fortunately, Team Leader Wang and everyone else have seen what happened just now, so why not go back first to explain the situation, reorganize the team members, and then talk about Chang Le's matter?"
Team Leader Wang thought to himself that they couldn't possibly take anyone away. Compared to Chang Le and Ronghe, what had just happened was no small matter. He decided to go back and report what had happened.
So the investigation team returned to Hua'an City, and Lu Jin'an and Chang Le exchanged a few words before Lu Jin'an left.
Ying Huaixia, however, said she couldn't rest easy and insisted on returning to the Dragon Sect with Chang Le.
This time, Chang Le did not go to the North City, but stayed in the Golden Palace of Qianyuan Mountain in the Abyss City.
That evening, after the investigation team reported the attack, the regional leadership was shaken.
Based on what Team Leader Wang said, most of the higher-ups could guess the method.
The greater the fame of the "Thirteen Heavenly Strategies," the more obvious the identity of the assassin in today's attack becomes.
To date, only three people can use the "Thirteen Heavenly Derivations Formation": Qin Shaoji, Qin Ling, and Qin Xian. The scope is pitifully small.
At this point, the struggle between the Qin family and its supporters and other families within the various clans of the region came to the forefront, and undercurrents surged in all major regions, causing significant turmoil.
Meanwhile, Chang Le, at the center of the storm, went to the [Dragon Tomb Secret Realm] deep in Qianyuan Mountain and sat with Fu Guang for a long time, telling him about the secret realm and what happened after they came out of it.
“Fu Guang, the Qin family has been defeated, but the people behind them haven’t made their move yet.” Chang Le leaned against Fu Guang, bent one leg, and looked up at the mysterious star map. “I have a feeling that something big is about to happen.”
"But the first thing I thought of wasn't how to protect the people I care about, but whether they were worth protecting."
Chang Le gave a self-deprecating laugh.
...
It was early morning on the 5th.
According to reports, 24 hours after the "The creator of gods" faction posted the invitation on FGN, user "[The creator of gods]" sent another message:
"You are the most unique being, a gift left to us by the Holy Lord;"
Let us work together to create a unique new order.
Chang Le, you will eventually belong to us.
This time, the deification faction linked the evil god Jiu Fanggui with Chang Le, subtly indicating that there was a connection between them.
Soon after, someone contacted Chang Le, who was also one of those who had joined the Mystic Creation Realm.
"Salty Radish O Worries," who previously posted a video of the Northern Campaign, has also released two more videos.
One segment is 5 seconds long, showing a fierce fight at the edge of the old ruins in the north.
The blurry image quality cannot conceal the distinctive features of the people in the video: a blood-red battle axe, dark green vines, and the familiar young masters of noble families, Gu Yujing and Qin Xian.
Chang Le and [Battle Axe] Lezer are circled in red.
The second 5-second video is from Liuchi Lane in District 9.
In the video, the Wolf Pack's iconic aircraft, the Central Plains Investigation Team's vehicles and uniforms, the Dragon Pack's Dragon Soul Army, and Chang Le, who has been highlighted, are all visible. The Ninth District confronts the Investigation Team. After adjusting the video filter and adding background music, the atmosphere becomes eerie and tense.
Chang Le's identity suddenly became mysterious, and her relationship with the evil god, the god-making faction, the Ninth District, and the Central Plains became complicated.
Some of those who had spoken up for District Nine fell silent.
Within the Central Plains, more and more people are dissatisfied with the Qin family, and even more are dissatisfied with Chang Le and the Ninth District.
The weather forecast predicted a sunny day, and the dawn should have torn through the darkness of daybreak, but instead, dark clouds blocked out the sunlight, making it so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.
...
Chang Le read the message from Luo Xuan, chuckled, and showed it to Fu Guang: "Look at this, the god-making faction, the god-making faction, those who claim to be creating gods, yet they've managed to play with the evil of human nature in all sorts of ways! Hahaha..."
Chang Le leaned against the tombstone, covered his face and chuckled, his laughter somewhat hoarse, like a wail.
...
5th, 9 AM.
A sudden uprising broke out in the old ruins of the northern border.
Its influence extends to northern Europa, the northern and western Ansdaya Mountains, and the Ninth District of Middle-earth, which faces the ruins across a flat wasteland.
