Chapter 256 Tragedy
Chapter 256 Tragedy
As the fire in the Phoenix Clan's rest area burned fiercely, the blazing flames seemed to engulf the entire night sky.
The firelight illuminated the dark night. For a moment, figures in the night sky turned into streams of light and rushed towards the Phoenix Clan's rest area at an astonishing speed.
In the midst of this grand gathering of heroes, a top demon tribe actually suffered such an attack. This sudden incident caused a strong sense of worry in many people's hearts.
"Master, you are here."
Xiao Lin stood respectfully on a roof, his eyes fixed on Bai Feiyu who was slowly walking towards him. His posture was upright and his face was full of respect.
Bai Feiyu looked gloomily at the Phoenix clan's rest area below where flames were shooting up into the sky. His originally handsome face now looked so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it.
His brows were furrowed, and his eyes revealed deep worry and anger.
“Are there any survivors?
"Bai Feiyu looked at the disciples of the Wulin Holy Land who were all using their spiritual power to put out the fire, and asked slowly, his voice was low and powerful, with an unquestionable majesty.
"Reporting to Master, no one survived, and the person who attacked was quick and decisive, leaving no trace at all. This fire was also an ordinary flame."
Xiao Lin said this heavily, his face full of solemnity. He lowered his head slightly, not daring to look directly into Bai Feiyu's eyes that seemed to see through everything.
Bai Feiyu glanced at Xiao Lin and found that there was only shock and heaviness in Xiao Lin's eyes, without any extra expression.
Then, he narrowed his eyes slightly, looked thoughtfully at the Phoenix Clan's rest area in the firelight, and then flew down.
"You don't have to come along to maintain order."
Bai Feiyu's voice echoed in the air, and his figure, like a nimble eagle, instantly disappeared in the flames.
Xiao Lin was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Bai Feiyu's back with some suspicion, but without thinking too much, he hurried towards the other people who had come, to explain this sudden disaster to the leaders of other sects and demon tribes.
In the firelight at this moment, Ye An was desperately looking for Mo Qingcheng's figure.
He knew Mo Qingcheng too well.
His heart was filled with fear. He was really afraid that Mo Qingcheng would risk exhausting his own spiritual power again and attack the Phoenix Clan.
"Silly woman, I hope nothing happens to you!" Ye An muttered anxiously, while ignoring the burning flames and struggling to move through the ruins.
His face was full of anxiety and worry, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Even the white clothes were scorched black by the flames, and there were even wisps of green smoke coming out of some places.
"who are you?"
Bai Feiyu had already discovered Ye An's trail. He flashed and instantly appeared in front of Ye An. His eyes were as sharp as a sword, staring at Ye An closely.
Ye An was slightly stunned for a moment when he looked at the man in white clothes and with extraordinary appearance who suddenly appeared in front of him.
A hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes, and his body tensed up involuntarily.
Ye An knew that it was a good thing that Mo Qingcheng was not seen now.
But now that he appeared in the Phoenix Clan's rest area filled with corpses and ruins, he would definitely be regarded as a suspect.
Bai Feiyu looked at this somewhat disheveled, ordinary-looking man who was ignoring everything around him and was looking for something. He felt very strange and could not help but frown slightly, his eyes full of confusion.
"I'm asking you again, who are you?"
Bai Feiyu asked in a heavier tone, his voice carrying a sense of oppression that made people shudder.
"I just saw a sudden disaster here, so I came to see if there are any survivors." Ye An knew that now was not a good time to cause trouble, so he could only make an excuse.
Especially now that there is no distinction between friend and foe, and Mo Qingcheng is not here, there is no need to waste time here. His eyes flickered and he did not dare to look at Bai Feiyu.
"Oh? Is that so?" Bai Feiyu looked at Ye An in confusion, still frowning slightly.
He clearly felt that Ye An didn't want to answer the real question.
"If you don't believe it, I have no way to prove it." Ye An said.
There was a hint of helplessness on his face, and at the same time he felt a little anxious.
He really didn't want to continue to be in a stalemate with Bai Feiyu on this issue. The most important thing now was to find Mo Qingcheng.
Ye An was now as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He looked around from time to time, hoping to find some trace of Mo Qingcheng.
Bai Feiyu also realized that Ye An was looking for someone, and he really couldn't massacre the entire Phoenix clan, so he didn't make things difficult for himself.
Then, Bai Feiyu waved his hand gently, and a powerful spiritual power surged out, clearing a path for the flames that were rushing over from all around.
"You can leave now. Please come to the main hall of the Wulin Holy Land tomorrow." After Bai Feiyu finished speaking, he pointed at Ye An, and a stream of spiritual power fell on Ye An at an extremely fast speed.
Ye An had no reaction at all as the spiritual power penetrated his body. He looked at Bai Feiyu angrily. His eyes were burning with anger, and his hands were clenched tightly into fists.
Bai Feiyu withdrew his hand calmly, "When the time comes, you will need to prove that you have nothing to do with this matter, because there are many people who saw you. I hope you can understand."
Ye An thought about it and understood what Bai Feiyu meant.
Bai Feiyu's move was a disguised way of proving himself. Then Ye An clasped his fists towards Bai Feiyu, turned around and left quickly, continuing to look for Mo Qingcheng's whereabouts.
Bai Feiyu quietly looked at the direction where Ye An left, his eyes deep and complicated. He narrowed his eyes slightly and fell into deep thought. After a moment, the fire seemed to be driven by some mysterious force and quickly covered the road opened by the spiritual power again.
Bai Feiyu was in the raging flames, his brows tightly furrowed, his handsome face full of confusion, doubt and a hint of helplessness.
His eyes flickered in the firelight, as if he was trying to think about something.
Ye An looked back at the road that was covered with flames again, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.
He thought about the man who suddenly appeared and was full of confusion for a moment.
However, he soon put these doubts behind him, because Mo Qingcheng's whereabouts were unknown, and the most important thing now was to continue looking for her.
Bai Feiyu was in the flames, his white clothes flickering in the light of the fire.
He raised his head slightly, looking helplessly at the raging fire, the flames dancing in his eyes, reflecting complex emotions.
After a moment, he suddenly swung his hand with determination and firmness.
Suddenly, a powerful spiritual power roared out like a strong wind. That spiritual power seemed to have substance and swept through the entire Phoenix clan's rest area with overwhelming force.
Wherever the strong wind passed, the flames were extinguished, making a crackling sound, as if they were struggling unwillingly.
After the fire was extinguished, silence enveloped the area. The bodies of all the Phoenix Clan members were revealed before their eyes. The tragic scene was like a frozen nightmare.
The corpses were lying all over the place. Some had hideous faces, as if they had experienced great pain in the last moments of their lives; some had eyes wide open, as if they died with their eyes open.
The ground was covered in blood, and the dried blood appeared dark red, forming a heartbreaking picture with the surrounding charred ruins.
The air was filled with a pungent smell of burning and blood, which made people's stomachs churn and they couldn't bear to look at it.
"This method is exactly the same as it was back then."
