His shouts after shouts contained a slight tremble. His voice wafted with the wind into the distance, but there wasn’t even a single response.
His final shred of hope extinguished like a soap bubble. Yun Che held his breath, and advanced forward. As soon as he took a step forward, his entire body suddenly became motionless… what he saw in the stone room in front of him was a dark red bloodstain.
Yun Che’s heartstrings tightened as he rushed over like a violent gale. He immediately knelt in front of that puddle of blood to see that the bloodstains had already dried. However, there was a thin layer of dust on its surface. In this place where the mountain winds never ceases, this thin layers of dust proved that this bloodstain was only left behind in the past three to four days.
Not far from the bloodstain, Yun Che saw two broken swords with patches of rust on top.
Apart from this, there weren’t any traces that a fight had occurred here. Against Burning Heaven Clan’s strength, how could Xiao Lie and Xiao Lingxi have any capability or struggling and resisting?!
Yun Che’s hands propped up against the ground, and his ten fingers deeply embedded themselves into the rocks. His head drooped as his entire body trembled. He tightly clenched his teeth and made crunching noises. An intense anger and bitterness that practically came to life filled the entire stone room; its oppression made the air here completely stop flowing.
“Burning Heaven Clan… Burning Heaven Clan… Burning Heaven Clan…”
Quiet grunts seeped out from Yun Che’s mouth. Those quiet grunts were like the voices of ghosts from hell seeking life.
He remembered about the person that Sikong Du mentioned at New Moon City…
Fen Duanhun’s third son, Fen Juechen!!
Sikong Du was not mistaken. That was indeed Fen Juechen! The reason why he appeared in New Moon City was only to pass by… his actual target was actually this place!
His resentment towards the Burning Heaven Clan was birthed two years ago. Fen Juecheng wanted to assassinate him, but Fen Juebi was harmed instead… Fen Juecheng’s attempt at courting Cang Yue was futile, and was actually severely injured by him in the process. This lost all face for the Burning Heaven Clan. Afterwards, he even send out eight Sky Profound Realm experts lead by Fen Moli to assassinate him!!
He killed seven and left one alive… That final person was his warning to Burning Heaven Clan, and left Burning Heaven Clan with a tiny bit of face, leeway, and even a little bit of compromise… because Burning Heaven Clan was an extremely powerful sect that had been there for millenniums. Unless he was at his wit’s end, he was not willing to have eternal animosity toward the Burning Heaven Clan.
However, he never would have thought that Burning Heaven Clan would reply by acting like this!
Even if the hatred between him and Burning Heaven Clan was ten times greater, what did that have to do with Xiao Lie and Xiao Lingxi!?
“AHHH!!!”
