The lights in the imperial capital were as bright as day, but they could not dispel the darkness that enveloped them.
In the meeting hall of Prince Chen's Mansion, the current Crown Prince and the former Prince Chen frowned, frowning and thinking.
In addition to him, there were dozens of experts from the Tianzi Camp gathered in the hall. Everyone seemed to be discussing something, but could not come up with a conclusion for a while.
"Your Highness, Lord Wolf is here."
Zhou Wang quickly stepped inside and held his hands in salute.
Upon hearing Lin Bai's arrival, the warriors from Tianzi camp stood up to greet him, and even His Highness King Chen had a slight smile on his face.
But in just a moment, his smile disappeared without a trace.
He looked a little embarrassed. Now he didn't know how to face Lin Bai. What he had promised to Lin Bai could not be fulfilled now.
His heart was filled with guilt, and he had no face to face Lin Bai.
This is why His Highness Prince Chen has not summoned Lin Bai these days. Firstly, it is because he is indeed very busy, and secondly, because he does not know how to face this matter.
Lin Bai walked towards the meeting hall, and all the Tianzi camp warriors stood up and saluted.
But his eyes noticed that there was not only one prince in the hall, but the third prince was also here.
"Master Langhou." The third prince raised his hands and smiled at Lin Bai.
Lin Bai was extremely confused. What happened to allow these two princes to arrive at the same time?
He nodded to the third prince as a courtesy, raised his hands and said to His Highness King Chen: "The Holy Son of Tianshui Sect, the Wolf Marquis of Chu State, has met Your Highness."
"Brother Lin, there is no need to be polite." His Highness the Prince looked pale and could not relax his tightly furrowed brows. Even when he saw Lin Bai, his face was still solemn and solemn.
"what happened?"
Lin Bai saw that the atmosphere in the main hall was extremely depressing, and the faces of His Highness King Chen, the Third Prince, and the Tianzi Camp warriors were solemn. He immediately realized that what happened today was definitely not that simple.
His Highness Prince Chen was silent when he heard this. The warriors of Tianzi camp did not dare to speak out easily. The third prince sighed quietly: "Then let me say it. Lord Lang, please be mentally prepared. This matter is extremely serious."
Am I ready?... Lin Bai was a little confused.
The third prince took a deep breath and said to Lin Bai, "Nie Shang is probably dead."
What!
When Lin Bai heard this, his eyes widened suddenly and he looked at the third prince in disbelief: "Is your highness the third prince joking with me? Brother Nie has already left the imperial capital with the disciples of the Baitian Sect and is now returning to the territory of the Seven Nights Sect..."
Just when he was halfway through speaking, Lin Bai suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
The third prince sighed: "Two hours ago, outside the imperial capital, a battle broke out in the mountains and forests on the outskirts of Longshan City. The person who was attacked was Yunzhou of the Baitian Sect!"
Sects and families from all over the demon world have different directions and ways of leaving the imperial capital.
When Lin Bai went to see off Nie Shang that day, he had said that they would go to Longshan City outside the imperial capital and take the teleportation vehicle to leave the Chu Kingdom.
Longshan City is located on the border of the imperial capital of Chu State.
After passing Longshan City, you can enter the Eighteen Imperial States.
Although there are teleporters in the imperial capital of Chu State, the Chu State has an iron law that clearly stipulates that no one, except members of the royal family, is allowed to leave the imperial capital on teleporters.
You cannot leave by teleportation, and naturally you cannot arrive by teleportation.
Therefore, most of the families who came to attend the Chu Emperor's birthday were teleported to the border of Chu's imperial capital, and then took their own cloud boats to the imperial capital.
Lin Bai looked extremely surprised when he heard that Baitian Sect Yunzhou was attacked.
The third prince continued: "The people who took action were extremely decisive. Before the Zhaoxing Division and the Forbidden Army arrived, they slaughtered all the warriors on the Yunzhou, leaving almost no survivors."
"Later, when the Zhaoxing Division and the Forbidden Army arrived, after careful investigation, they found that the people who died on Yunzhou were all core disciples and ordinary disciples of the Baitian Sect. The bodies of the ancestors and elders of the Baitian Sect have not yet been found."
Lin Bai raised his eyes, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes, and asked: "Then how can His Highness the Third Prince conclude that Nie Shang is dead?"
The third prince said: "Even if Nie Shang is not dead, he is still missing."
"Not only is he missing, but the elders and ancestors of the Baitian Sect are also missing."
Lin Bai frowned deeply, puzzled.
What on earth could attack Yunzhou of the Baitian Sect? Where did Nie Shang and the ancestors and elders of the Baitian Sect go?
Lin Bai asked: "Who did it?"
The third prince said: "This is what we are puzzled about, because even Zhao Xingsi doesn't know who these people are!"
Lin Bai was speechless immediately. The Zhaoxing Division had eyes and ears all over the world, but they didn't even know who the person who took action was?
Then this group must have a very strict plan.
But when Lin Bai thought about it carefully, wasn't this too bizarre?
There are dozens of warriors on the Baitian Sect Yunzhou, all of whom are strong men in the world of martial arts.
Even if Nie Shang's strength is not at the level of the Holy Son of the Hengsheng Sect, there are not many people in the same realm who can defeat him.
What's more, there are ancestors from the Baitian Sect accompanying him on the Yunzhou, all of whom are cultivators of the Daluo Daoguo realm. There are also elders from the Baitian Sect, seven or eight masters of the Taiyi Daoguo realm.
How could such a team be destroyed in an instant?
And according to what the third prince said, when the Zhaoxing Division and the Forbidden Army arrived, there would be no one left alive in Yunzhou.
How terrifying this is.
The entire Chu State Imperial Capital falls under the jurisdiction of the Zhaoxing Division and the Forbidden Army. Especially during the birthday of Emperor Chu, there were many warriors coming and going in the Chu State Imperial Capital, and the Zhaoxing Division and the Forbidden Army increased their preparedness.
Whenever there is any disturbance within the scope of the imperial capital, the Zhaoxing Division and the Forbidden Army will arrive in an instant.
However, the Baitian Sect Yunzhou was attacked. When the Zhaoxing Division and the imperial army arrived, they only found Yunzhou's broken limbs all over the ground, and there were no living disciples of the Baitian Sect inside.
This shows that the person who took action must be extraordinary.
Lin Bai asked sadly: "Is it true that there is not even a single person alive on Yunzhou?"
The third prince shook his head and said: "No. When Zhao Xingsi arrived, everyone had already expired."
Lin Bai curiously asked: "Is it possible that there are warriors who have surpassed the realm of Hunyuan Daoguo? Otherwise, how could the Yunzhou of the Baitian Sect be shot down so easily, and neither the Zhaoxing Division nor the Forbidden Army could react?
They were all killed before."
The third prince frowned and shook his head, saying: "It's unlikely, because after investigation by the Zhaoxing Division and the Forbidden Army, there were no fluctuations in cultivation power beyond the realm of Hunyuan Daoguo."
Lin Bai asked: "Are you sure?"
The third prince nodded and said: "When people pass by, they leave traces, and when geese pass by they leave their voices; especially when a warrior who has surpassed the Daluo Daoguo realm takes action, he will definitely leave more clues, but we have never found them!"
"Unless the person who takes action is far beyond the Daluo Daoguo realm!"
