Chapter 356: The Sleeping Deity
What happened again?
Numerous Chen family warriors stepped out of their doors, looking bewildered at the overcast sky.
After a night of revelry!
Although their realms had improved significantly, they felt mentally and physically exhausted, just wanting to rest properly…
At that moment.
Lin Feng’s indifferent voice echoed in everyone’s ears:
“I will be leaving Yun Chuan for a while. You all should focus on your training. If you encounter any insurmountable problems, let Xiao Lian Lian take action!”
“Xiao Lian Lian take action?”
Before the Chen family warriors could ponder the meaning of this statement, they saw a streak of light fly over their heads!
The direction of that streak of light was none other than the Wokoku!
…
Meanwhile.
In the capital,
In a certain conference hall.
The Minister of the Law Enforcement Department, Situ Yunxiao, stood up abruptly after seeing Lin Feng hang up the phone, and said solemnly:
“The situation is a bit dire!”
“What did Lin Feng say?”
Long Shuai, who was beside him, asked.
“It seems he didn’t say anything, yet it feels like he said everything…”
Situ Yunxiao forced a bitter smile, then looked out the window towards the direction of Wokoku, murmuring:
“I hope everything is safe!”
…
Wokoku is located in the northern bay of the East Sea.
Though it is called a country, it is essentially equivalent to a province within the Great Xia!
Its territory can be broadly divided into: one main city and four secondary cities!
The main city is: Sakura City,
The world-renowned Sakura Volcano is located within Sakura City!
The four secondary cities are:
Dongjing City, Nanwan City, Xihai City, and Beidao City.
The western secondary city is located to the west of Sakura City, facing it in a protective stance.
Each city has one city lord and two deputy city lords!
These three city lords consist of a Divine Ninja, a Divine Illusionist, and a Divine Spellcaster, representing the peak combat power within Wokoku…
They guard the west, ensuring the safety of the main city…
Any enemy wishing to reach Sakura City must pass through one of these western cities!
…
At this moment.
In a corner of Dongjing City.
Eight warriors from the Kunlun Jiang family were scattered throughout a two-story wooden pavilion, investigating the surroundings.
Three Martial Gods and five peak Martial Saints!
Among them,
The leader, an elderly man with white hair, had already reached the late stage of Martial God!
The elder’s name is Jiang Taiheng, a direct descendant of an ancient ancestor of the Jiang family.
He is now over five hundred years old, having participated in the Eastern and Western cultivator wars, witnessing numerous battlefields, and is a true ancient-level martial arts master!
At this time, a middle-aged man from the Jiang family, after checking the situation in the pavilion, approached Jiang Taiheng and said:
“Ancestor Taiheng, based on the traces at the scene, it appears that Sister Yanxi indeed had a brief battle here with someone a month ago, leaving behind three crescent moon marks!”
The middle-aged man’s name is Jiang Ming!
In terms of generation, he is Jiang Yanxi’s cousin!
The crescent moon mark is a unique signal mark of the Jiang family!
Whenever a Jiang family member finds themselves in a perilous situation, they will carve such a crescent moon mark to alert their kin to come for rescue!
Generally speaking,
The more crescent moon marks left behind, the more dangerous the situation!
Leaving three crescent moon marks already indicates a life-and-death scenario!
“Something feels off!”
Jiang Taiheng frowned and said.
As soon as he spoke,
Several Jiang family warriors turned their gazes toward him!
“From the information on the surface, Yanxi was besieged by a dozen mysterious powerhouses, leading to her defeat and escape, but I find that hard to believe!”
“Yanxi possesses a spiritual root and has already reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, only slightly inferior to my father!”
“If she fought against a dozen top powerhouses from Wokoku, it would surely be earth-shattering; the aftermath of the battle could destroy a city! But do you see any signs of a battle here?”
Jiang Taiheng seemed to think of something, a trace of worry crossing his face.
“But this information was transmitted to us by the Great Xia Intelligence Department! It shouldn’t be false, right?”
Jiang Ming frowned and said.
“Perhaps the Great Xia Intelligence Department was set up, or maybe there are traitors, or perhaps this is all part of a scheme!”
“A scheme? What do you mean?”
“A scheme to lure you into a trap!! Perhaps someone is plotting against the Great Xia! Intentionally spreading the news of Yanxi being severely injured and missing to lure us here…”
At this point,
Jiang Taiheng felt an ominous premonition in his heart.
Their journey from Kunlun to Dongjing City had been too calm, smooth sailing…
Given the cunning and meticulous nature of the Wokoku people, this was clearly abnormal!
“A tiny nation can have such audacity?”
Jiang Ming’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“Don’t underestimate Wokoku!”
“Ancient texts have recorded that this island also birthed many terrifying beings in ancient times…”
“After the Pre-Qin period, the path of immortality dwindled, and while the terrifying beings on the island have gone silent, no one knows if they truly left this island!”
Jiang Taiheng shook his head.
Just then,
A light chuckle suddenly came from the direction of the pavilion door.
“No wonder you are a master of the Jiang family; even our country’s secrets are known to you! I truly admire you!”
The Jiang family members turned to look,
Only to see an elderly man with a white mustache walk in,
And behind the elder,
Followed dozens of Wokoku powerhouses!
These Wokoku powerhouses exuded a chilling aura, their faces filled with murderous intent, radiating a dense killing aura, as if they had killed countless people to condense such terrifying malice!
“Xiao Songyuan Ye!”
Jiang Taiheng’s gaze shifted slightly, recognizing the identity of the intruder.
Xiao Songyuan Ye,
Is one of the two deputy city lords of Dongjing City, and a well-known Divine Ninja within Wokoku…
His combat power is mysterious and unpredictable, wielding one of the ten famous swords—Oni Maru.
It is said that no one has ever seen him unleash his full power, as those who have are already dead!
“It seems my guess was correct! The news about Yanxi was indeed intentionally released by you!”
Jiang Taiheng’s gaze shifted.
“Only now do you realize? Is it too late?”
Xiao Songyuan Ye waved his hand.
The group of cold-breathed Wokoku powerhouses immediately surrounded the scene!
Faced with this situation,
Jiang Ming and the other seven Jiang family warriors narrowed their eyes.
Although these Wokoku powerhouses appeared terrifying, their strength was clearly inferior to theirs!
However, they also understood that,
If this was a scheme to lure them into a trap, the situation would clearly not be as simple as it appeared!
After all, the city lord of Dongjing City and the other deputy city lord had yet to appear!
“Whether late or early, my Jiang family warriors have never feared any schemes or tricks in their lives!”
“I only want to ask you one question now!”
Jiang Taiheng said slowly.
“Speak!”
“Jiang Yanxi has been missing for a month, and you have set this trap; is she alive or dead?”
Jiang Taiheng asked.
Upon hearing this,
Xiao Songyuan Ye couldn’t help but reveal a hint of a mocking smile.
“Originally, I shouldn’t tell you this, but considering that you are about to die soon, I will reluctantly reveal a little!”
“The arrogant woman Jiang Yanxi has already fallen into the Sakura Volcano, where the eight-headed divine spirit of our country sleeps. Do you think she has any chance of survival?”
