This time the beast tide along the coast came suddenly and without any signs, but the number of monks who participated in the resistance was unprecedented, so the end was also so unexpected. When all the sea beasts retreated into the sea and there were no more signs of large-scale sea beasts coming ashore, the City Lord's Mansion and Tianhaimen jointly announced that this sea beast tide had finally receded. Tianhaimen was grateful for the great assistance from all parties and sent many unique products in the sea area. Gu Yao and Chi Changye, who made great contributions, were both thanked by Tianhaimen.
After bidding farewell to Tianhaimen, the Tianfu Academy also embarked on the return journey. Of course, the orders they accepted were to be returned to the academy to continue to complete.
The place where Tian Ru was defending was far away and the coastline was long enough, so she waited until the beast tide receded before returning to the sect. When she saw Gu Yao and his party boarding the flying magic weapon and flying away, she turned around and sighed to her nephew: "I didn't expect him to go to this point. I underestimated him. If it weren't for him, the beast tide would not have receded so quickly, and the casualties of Tianhai Sect were far more than this. He has done us a favor."
Although Tian Ru had complicated feelings, the person she looked down upon in the past has now become a person who can save the situation. However, she was able to stand out from a group of cultivators and successfully build a foundation, and she is not someone who is afraid to admit her mistakes.
Tian Feiyang smiled and said, "Aunt has only been in contact with Gu Yao for a few days, so it's normal that she doesn't know much about him. I've known him for a much longer time, so I didn't notice it."
Tian Ru understood that her nephew was comforting her, so she smiled and thought of something else: "Fei Rong's cultivation has greatly increased now. Is it because of Gu Yao? Do your parents know about this?" This time, she saw another nephew whose cultivation was no less than that of Tian Feiyang, whom she had always admired, which made her doubt her
eyes Tian Feiyang hesitated and said, "He probably doesn't know. I'll tell you next time I send a letter back."
Tian Feiyang was a little suspicious. When he saw his second brother talking about his cultivation, a complex look flashed across his face. He only said that it was Gu Yao who helped him, and seemed to deliberately avoid the rest. He didn't know what he didn't know. Moreover, when they were fighting together, he noticed that his second brother's spiritual power carried a faint light blue flame power, which was extraordinary. In a head-on battle, even he might not be able to resist it. He didn't know what had happened to his second brother.
Tian Ru didn't think too much: "Well, I should say it. This is a good thing. Your father will be happy to know that Fei Rong is so ambitious. With you two brothers working together, the Tian family can maintain it for another one or two hundred years."
She only knew that a nephew who had never made progress all day long suddenly became a good thing for the Tian family.
The beast tide receded, but the top leaders of Tianhaimen were not able to completely relax. The sudden beast tide and the unknown reasons were always a sword hanging over their heads. If they didn't figure it out, they didn't know when it would fall again.
Most of the previous beast tides had traces to be found, but this time they sent people to venture into the deep sea to investigate, but they couldn't find the ultimate source.
Even the beast tide on land appeared without reason and retreated without knowing the reason.
"Could it be that someone or a demon is behind all this?" an elder speculated bravely.
"What's the purpose? What's the purpose of artificially creating such a large-scale beast tide?" Someone raised a question, not to refute this speculation, but just to make things clearer.
The sect master coughed lightly and said, "Stop arguing. No matter what the reason is, we must have evidence to prove it. Before we find sufficient evidence, we will continue to investigate and strengthen patrols to prevent any
accidents. This time, the sect has more resources. I decided to set aside a group of people to reward the outstanding disciples and let them grow up as soon as possible."
"Yes, I will do as the sect master says."
"This time, many places have suffered serious disasters. In my opinion, it is better to send some disciples to check it out and absorb the children and teenagers with spiritual roots into the sect to make up for the casualties of the disciples. These people will also protect this area more attentively in the future." Someone suggested.
"I think it's feasible."
"I think it's also possible, let's do it this way." The sect leader also agreed. They, like the local people,
live by the sea. Although it is dangerous here, the resources in the sea are rich, and the places with abundant spiritual energy on the land have long been divided up by various forces. If they forcefully want to get a share, they will only be rejected and suppressed by all forces.
On the way back, everyone was very happy. This time they had a great harvest. Not to mention the harvest from hunting sea beasts, just because they got the Dust-Clearing Pill before other monks, it was the greatest blessing. When the news of the Dust-Clearing Pill was passed back, those students who did not come to participate in resisting the beast tide sent messages one after another, wanting to get the Dust-Clearing Pill from them through the back door, but no one paid attention to those guys, so they just lined up and waited.
"I heard that Tianhaimen still hasn't figured out the cause of the beast tide. They are the most familiar force in this sea area. If they can't figure it out, we have no way to do it." Jiang Yan said what he had learned. Gu Yao was refining pills, and the others were keen on fighting. He dealt with people from all sides, and the contact with Tianhaimen was indispensable, so he knew some of the situation.
"Maybe we can find out after a while. No matter what the reason is, there will always be some traces left
. If we follow the clues, we can find out the truth." Gu Yao said optimistically.
"Yes, Xiaoyao is right." Chi Changye echoed without principle, which made Tian Feirong and the little fat man look embarrassed.
Jiang Yan and Chi Changye exchanged glances in mid-air. They both believed that even if it was man-made, it would be impossible to completely erase all traces. Even if it was erased, there would be another incident that would expose their tails.
This was the case with the demise of the Shi family two years ago, and the beast tide two years later.
If it was really man-made, there is one thing to worry about right now, and that is Gu Yao's safety.
Originally, the beast tide would not end so quickly, and the consequences would not be as serious as they are now. If we trace the root cause, then the one who caused all this and forced the plan to fail halfway was Gu Yao who accidentally released the Dust-Clearing Pill. Will the person behind the scenes let Gu Yao go?
Chi Changye did not explain these speculations to Gu Yao, so as not to distract Gu Yao from his alchemy and
disturb him from the outside world.
But at this moment, Chi Changye noticed something strange, and suddenly stood up and flew in front of the magic weapon. After observing for a while, he waved his hand to stop.
"Brother Chi, what's going on? Is there anyone who dares to attack us on the way?" Lu Qiusheng rushed to Chi Changye's side, while Jiang Yan was on the other side, looking forward vigilantly.
"Whether it is true or not, we will know after we chop it with a sword." Chi Changye drew out his sword with an indifferent expression, and the flying magic weapon stopped. Jiang Yan ordered people to open the shield, and Chi Changye flew high in the sky, overlooking the scene below from above, and then chopped down with a sword in the air, with an imposing manner and unstoppable power.
The person on the magic weapon couldn't see the sword coming out at all. At that moment, he only saw a flash of lightning across the sky. Chi Changye was also wrapped in the lightning. He only heard loud "boom" and "crack" sounds, and the person in front of him
The scenery around him shattered like transparent glass, turning into flying pieces and dispersing in all directions. The monks hidden in it vomited blood and fell to the ground one by one. One of the skinny old men looked up at Chi Changye in the sky with disbelief, and couldn't believe that someone could break their combined formation with just one sword.
"What are you waiting for? Go! Keep them all here!" The skinny old man made a hoarse voice. He didn't believe that after Chi Changye slashed out such a powerful sword, he would still have much strength to stop the attack of the crowd
. So many monks rushed out from the dark and rushed towards the flying magic weapon suspended in the air. Lu Qiu was so angry that he cursed, where did these bastards come from? How dare they say that they want to keep them all here? I will kill these bastards alive.
However, before the people from the academy could fly out of the magic weapon, several small jars flew out from the magic weapon, accompanied by a voice: "Brother Ye, break them, and try to blow them away with the wind."
As soon as the voice ended, the jars exploded in mid-air with "bang bang bang". The jars contained liquid, but once it came into contact with the air, it evaporated into gas. A hurricane rolled up these strangely colored gases and flew towards the shameful guy who was flying head-on.
"No, hide quickly! Hold your breath!"
The color of the gas was poisonous, and it was very likely to be highly poisonous, so the skinny old man immediately sounded a warning. However, the hurricane was extremely fast, and those who reacted slowly had already inhaled it. Suddenly, their heads became dizzy and they fell headfirst from the magic weapon. Their spiritual power also lost control, and they fell from the sky and were smashed into a pulp.
"Wow!" Lu Qiusheng witnessed this scene with his own eyes and swallowed uncontrollably. "What kind of thing did Junior Brother Gu come up with? It's a bit scary. But do you have anything else? Save some for me to defend myself."
Although they were standing in front, they could still tell that the voice was from Gu Yao, and besides him, who else could Chi Changye cooperate with so tacitly?
"The detoxification pill is here, what are you waiting for?" Gu Yao took out another handful of pills, and was eager to fly out the magic weapon, and cut these thieves who dared to block the road like cutting watermelons.
Everyone suddenly woke up from the state of aphasia, and everything returned to normal. They quickly grabbed a pill and flew out, leaving only the person who controlled the magic weapon. Next, it was just as Gu Yao described. Killing these thieves who blocked the road was as easy as cutting watermelons. They easily cut all those who didn't have time to escape, but the skinny old man and those who didn't rush out at the first time saw that the situation was not good and ran away.
Chi Changye stopped while he was ahead and did not chase after them, fearing that the other party had a trick up their sleeve. He turned back to look at Jiang Yan, and it seemed that they had guessed it right. The beast tide that Tianhaimen experienced was man-made, and it was very likely related to the Shi family's extermination case.
