Chapter 526: Chapter 526: Winds and Clouds Gathering
Jiang Xiaobai had no idea that the massacre of tens of thousands of people from the Mystic Gate branch in Qingxuan City was being pinned on him.
A “hot potato” like that was placed on him without his knowledge.
Soon, a group of people hurried tens of thousands of miles, and finally stopped in a dense forest in a mountain range.
This place was remote, a good place to hide.
After stopping, Jiang Xiaobai immediately released Mo Yu and the others, including Mo Feng’s corpse.
Mo Yu had awakened, she was kneeling by Mo Feng’s body, her face calm, her eyes devoid of any ripples.
Some say the end of emotions is silence.
Right now, Mo Yu’s heart was void of any emotional fluctuations, she just stared blankly at Mo Feng’s blackened, incomplete body.
Jiang Xiaobai and the rest didn’t know how to comfort her.
After all, if they put themselves in her shoes and imagine it was Ao Yan and Ao Cheng who had perished, they would undoubtedly go mad, too.
So, everyone quietly stayed by Mo Yu’s side.
As for the matter of being pursued, nobody cared about it now.
After some time, Mo Yu suddenly stood up.
“Can you take us back?”
“Back? Back where?” asked Jiang Xiaobai, raising his eyebrows.
Mo Yu looked into the distance, her expression somber, “Back to the place where I originally found Feng. I… want to bury him there.”
“That was our first home. Without it, Feng will be lonely and miserable.”
Jiang Xiaobai took a deep breath, nodded, and placed Mo Feng’s body into the Pagoda.
But Mo Yu’s gaze fell on Li Licheng and Feng He.
Both men had regained consciousness and were looking at Mo Yu with horror and hatred.
“Whether you want to kill or torture, just do as you wish!”
Having become a useless person and falling into Mo Yu’s hands, Li Licheng knew there would be no good end for him and was prepared to be tortured to death by Mo Yu.
What nobody expected, however, was that Mo Yu suddenly laughed.
“I won’t kill you.”
“I will make you experience endless pain.”
With a cold humph, Mo Yu grabbed the two men and flew away, returning shortly.
After questioning her, they found out that she had disabled their arms and legs, cut off their tongues and left them in a city.
Before leaving, she completely destroyed both men’s dantian, effectively severing any chance they may have had to cultivate in the future!
Like this, she wanted these two men to endure numerous pains from this world!
“Let’s go.”
After learning this, Jiang Xiaobai felt relieved. Initially, he had thought that Mo Yu planned to relentlessly torture these men to death, completely immersed in the grief of Mo Feng’s death and ultimately damaging her mental state.
But now it seemed that Mo Yu was still rational and did not break down due to Mo Feng’s death.
“I know what you’re worried about.”
Mo Yu looked at Jiang Xiaobai, shaking her head slightly, “Don’t worry. Even before Feng, I had experienced numerous storms.”
“Just that this vengeance, must be avenged.”
“Even if I have to give up everything, I will make those people pay with their lives!”
Jiang Xiaobai also nodded: “Don’t worry, we’ll have plenty of opportunities since our enemies behind the scenes are in the Sacred City.”
“Our next stop is the Sacred City!”
“However, before that, let’s deal with matters in the Northern State.”
Everyone rested a bit before leaving with Mo Yu to their initial meeting place.
Elsewhere, the massacre of the Mystic Gate branch continued to ferment in the Northern State, and everyone was discussing it.
Those Sacred City influences who wanted to kill Jiang Xiaobai previously seized this opportunity to continuously attack and criticise Jiang Xiaobai, stirring up public opinion.
They ensured the majority of the Northern State people harbored an extreme hatred against Jiang Xiaobai!
Being brutal is fine, opposing the ancient clans might even be regarded as heroic!
But massacring the entire Mystic Gate branch over a minor dispute with the young master is unacceptable!
If Jiang Xiaobai were a top-level expert, even if people were displeased, no one would dare to speak up.
But things are different now, in people’s minds, Jiang Xiaobai, despite being somewhat capable, was merely at the late-stage of Dividing the gods realm!
According to the smearing by the forces of Sacred City, Jiang Xiaobai was able to survive till now and crush many powers not due to his strength, but because of his despicable methods!
The people of the Sacred City branch were all poisoned to death by Jiang Xiaobai!
This incited all the pent-up anger in everyone’s hearts. They only felt that Jiang Xiaobai was an utterly unpardonable criminal!
Everybody wanted him dead!
In short, at the moment, everyone in the Northern State was shouting for a fight against Jiang Xiaobai!
Many powers previously didn’t want to get involved but with such a situation and the forces of the Sacred City secretly fueling the flame, everyone united against him!
They even came up with a ‘Kill Jiang Xiaobai Alliance’!
On the surface, it seemed like mainly Mystic Gate and other forces in the Northern State were forming an alliance, but secretly, all of them were being manipulated by the forces of the Sacred City.
These forces did not care about Jiang Xiaobai’s plight. Each wanted to take the stuff Jiang Xiaobai had.
As for who will eventually get the stuff, these Sacred City forces would distribute amongst themselves.
But their main task was to take these things from Jiang Xiaobai!
Jiang Xiaobai, naturally, was unaware of this. He only knew that his infamy had now exceeded 9,000!
His reputation score had reached a staggering two million!
Seeing this was pleasing, but also frustrating.
…
Two days passed, Jiang Xiaobai and the others spent them hiding, disguising their appearances. Eventually, they arrived at a small town on the outskirts of the Northern State close to the Sacred City with Mo Yu.
This was the place where Mo Yu had found Mo Feng, where she adopted him.
As they entered the small town, Mo Yu’s mind was filled with memories of her times with Mo Feng.
Jiang Xiaobai and the rest sighed at this while feeling headaches about the ‘Kill Jiang Xiaobai Alliance’ issue.
Although they were on the move these two days, they had still received lots of information, naturally, they knew about the recent happenings in the Northern State.
Everyone was outraged, they had never seen such shameless people, to actually pour dirty water like this!
Jiang Xiaobai, however, was used to it.
Throughout his journey, how many times had he been framed?
Meanwhile, Jiang Xiaobai was also hatching a plan in his heart.
After a while, Mo Yu seemed to awaken from her memories. She led the group to a small mound.
She dug a large hole in the ground, placed Mo Feng’s body in it, ignited a flame with her spiritual power, and began to cremate Mo Feng’s body.
The flame was like a lonely traveler on the prairie, swaying with the wind and looked as if it could be extinguished at any moment.
Looking at the flame burning in the pit, Mo Yu’s tears couldn’t hold back any longer.
Her heart, calm for so long, finally exploded!
Her weeping echoed between heaven and earth.
