Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi
Chapter 1272 - 1258: Furious Rage

Chapter 1272: Chapter 1258: Furious Rage

Southern Continent.

Xiaoshanhe Institute.

Nantian Wen wore a somber expression, his fingers tapping rapidly on the tabletop, his sharp eyes like a hawk’s, exuding a cold and fierce gleam.

To his right, Yang Ling pressed his lips tightly together, his brow slightly furrowed, showing suppressed anger in his expression.

Ye Heng, Jin Feiyan, and other experts from Xiaoshanhe Institute were present.

The atmosphere in the entire grand hall was oppressively tense.

After a moment.

A figure hurriedly rushed in, and Ruan Yunyi entered the grand hall.

He immediately drew everyone’s attention.

Ye Heng asked, "What’s the situation?"

Ruan Yunyi shook his head, his face so dark it could drip water, and said solemnly, "According to the current intelligence, this group of mysterious strongmen came prepared, ruthless and powerful. They appeared like a thunderbolt, eliminating the city guards and strongmen, then swiftly captured ordinary citizens and disappeared without leaving any trace..."

"What is the situation now?" Nantian Wen asked.

He had previously been visiting Xiaoshanhe Institute, discussing the unification of Southern Continent with Ye Heng and Yang Ling.

But then...

They received news that a group of mysterious experts had suddenly appeared across Southern Continent, cruelly massacring city guards and capturing Southern Continent’s people.

The number of victims exceeded twenty billion!

Bang!

The table in front of Nantian Wen was smashed, his eyes blazing with fierce anger, "Who could it be? To dare such a brazen slaughter of Southern Continent’s people..."

Yang Ling’s expression was as dark as water.

Jin Feiyan said, "Could it be the revenge of Heavenly Sea Pavilion?"

"Hmm?"

"Heavenly Sea Pavilion? It could very well be them. Xiao Zhenguo first wiped out the strongmen invading our Daqian Dynasty by Heavenly Sea Pavilion, and then foiled the conspiracy against Nantian Dynasty..."

"I heard the chief disciple of Heavenly Sea Pavilion also died by Xiao Zhenguo’s hand..."

"This is a deep-seated vendetta, there’s nothing more to say, it must be those scoundrels from Heavenly Sea Pavilion..."

"Those Heavenly Sea Pavilion bastards, how could they be so ruthless? What right do they have to call it a Human Race sanctuary?"

"We must notify Xiao Zhenguo of this as soon as possible, let him confront Heavenly Sea Pavilion for justice!"

Everyone was unanimous in directing their blame towards Heavenly Sea Pavilion.

Even Yang Ling and Nantian Wen leaned towards the speculation of others at this time.

All of this was retaliation from Heavenly Sea Pavilion!

"Hold on first!"

Ye Heng, who had been silent until now, suddenly interrupted everyone’s debate.

As all eyes turned to him, Ye Heng continued, "I think it’s not necessarily Heavenly Sea Pavilion who did this!"

"Hmm?"

Nantian Wen squinted his eyes, and he did not underestimate Ye Heng, who was now Xiao Yi’s personal disciple, with the Battle War Holy Body enhancement, having grown from a junior into a martial arts giant capable of taking on responsibilities, "Ye Heng, if you have thoughts, feel free to share!"

Yang Ling also nodded, "Share your thoughts!"

Ye Heng said solemnly, "If it were truly Heavenly Sea Pavilion getting revenge, wouldn’t they attack us while Master is away? Killing guards and civilians is the minimal retaliation on us, why go to such lengths? Moreover, with Heavenly Sea Pavilion’s arrogance and audacity, they wouldn’t act sneakily, would they?"

As these words fell.

Everyone turned blank, thoughtful.

As Ye Heng said, Heavenly Sea Pavilion’s domineering image had long been deeply rooted in people’s minds.

But this time, their retaliation was underhanded, possibly indicating there was something fishy.

Jin Feiyan frowned slightly, having a natural aversion and dislike for Heavenly Sea Pavilion after past hardships, "Maybe they’re afraid of Master’s retaliation, so they have to act sneakily! These scoundrels are as cunning as hungry rats or wolves. Master’s power makes them hesitant, it’s understandable!"

Her words revealed her deep-seated resentment towards Heavenly Sea Pavilion.

Ye Heng sighed softly, "You underestimate the pride of a sanctuary, Sister! A sanctuary becoming a martial arts holy ground of the Human Race hinges on the spirit of inheritance. Heavenly Sea Pavilion, as Sword Cultivators, uphold their dignity, and would not condone such sneaky actions!"

"I think Ye Heng’s analysis makes sense!"

Bai Fa Sword Emperor spoke solemnly, "I suggest sending people first to clean up the attacked cities, then send someone south to inform Xiao Zhenguo. Isn’t the Pavilion Master of Heavenly Sea Pavilion also down there? Xiao Zhenguo surely has a way to find the real culprit..."

"No need for trouble, Mistress has a way to directly contact Master!" Ye Heng said.

"I’ll go to Nantian Sanctuary, and ask Zhenguo’s wife to contact Xiao Zhenguo!" Nantian Wen said.

"Thank you!"

"Thank you for making the trip, Nantian Emperor!"

Nantian Wen waved his hand, "It’s all for Southern Continent, I’ll go first!"

Whoosh!

Nantian Wen vanished into thin air.

With his current cultivation, traveling from Daqian Dynasty to Nantian Sanctuary takes merely an instant.

Upon hearing about Southern Continent’s plight, Fang Qingzhu hesitated not a moment, pulling out the communication token Xiao Yi had perhaps refined for her, "Nantian Brother, please wait a moment, I’ll contact Xiao Yi Brother now!"

......

In the dense fog of the far south.

Xiao Yi harnessed the divine power to clear the mist ahead, leading a few people deeper into the territory, unhindered.

Of course.

This was because he had the divine power, and ordinary strongmen who dared to rush in would have been lost long ago.

"Hmm?"

Xiao Yi suddenly stopped, causing the people behind him to be startled, and Master Nantian with a cautious face remained vigilant, "What is it? Have you discovered something?"

Xiao Yi smiled, "No, it seems Qingzhu needs to speak with me, please hold on a moment!"

Everyone relaxed and laughed heartily, "It seems there’s someone who can control Saint Lord Xiao!"

"Saint Lord Xiao, are you really a man controlled by his wife! Hahaha..."

Fang Ru contentedly regarded Xiao Yi, "Xiao Yi, just tell Qingzhu you are with me, she won’t worry!"

Xiao Yi rolled his eyes, a smile on his lips, his mind probing the communication token.

However...

When he saw the message from Fang Qingzhu in the token, Xiao Yi’s face immediately turned grim, with a flash of murderous intent in his eyes.

Filling with killing intent, turning into a storm, stirring up the four winds and clouds.

Everyone’s expressions changed, even at their Saint Sovereign level cultivation, they now wore serious expressions in the face of such overpowering murderous intent, "What’s wrong?"

"Seeing Xiao Yi’s grim expression, surely something major has occurred!"

Facing their questioning looks, Xiao Yi said slowly, "A group of mysterious strongmen suddenly appeared in Southern Continent, slaughtering over two hundred cities, with casualties exceeding twenty billion people..."

Buzz!

The people looked at each other, their minds buzzing.

A blank space!

Slaughtering over two hundred cities, casualties exceeding twenty billion!

What an atrocious act!

"Do we know who did it?" Master Nantian’s face was the most sullen, as Southern Continent was under the protection of Nantian Sanctuary, and now it had been ravaged, with billions of lives lost.

How could he bear this?

Under everyone’s gaze, Xiao Yi gently spoke, "They suspect... Heavenly Sea Pavilion!"
