Lord of the night.

Chapter 1507 It's all green! Everyone's green! [Let me give you guys a little update on yesterday.]

"I'll leave it to Third Brother to decide."

Chen Gu said.

He understood that Feng Du had invited him this time because he wanted to.

"It's not convenient for me to deal with the people of your Chen family. Besides, among the younger generation of your Chen family, only Chen Yun is left."

Feng Du then smiled mysteriously and said, "Or perhaps we should call him Chen Yin."

Chen Gu's face immediately turned red.

“If we kill him, it will be the same as eradicating the direct line of your Chen family.”

Feng Du said, "After killing those who made the move, I will not move from Chen Yun."

Chen Gu sensed something was wrong, coughed, and was about to speak when Feng Du said, "But after all, it's your family that owes the debt, and I can't live with myself if I don't kill Chen Yun. And the reason I didn't kill him is because of you..."

"Okay, I'll slap you twice, then you don't need to heal."

Feng Dudao.

Chen Gu was stunned: "Third brother, go ahead and kill, I have no objection."

"Let's just slap him."

"I really have no objection! Or I'll just kill myself!"

"Let's just slap him."

Feng Du said, "Shut up!"

Chen Gu: "..."

I felt like my head and stomach were about to explode: What does this have to do with me?

If my descendants do something wrong 10,000 years from now, I, their ancestor, will get slapped twice.

But Feng Du adopted an attitude of 'I don't care, this is how it's going to be'.

Chen Gu had unspeakable suffering.

As expected, once they arrived at the Chen family and everyone had gathered, Chen Yun simply watched passively throughout the entire process, and everyone who attacked Feng Er was eliminated.

Then, when they got to a secluded spot, two hard slaps landed on Chen Gu's face.

"No healing or recovery allowed!"

The order was exceptionally domineering and authoritarian.

Chen Gu: "..."

As Feng Du left the Chen family, he had regained his composure. Looking at the clear finger marks on Chen Gu's swollen face, Feng Du asked thoughtfully, "Seventh Brother, don't you feel something is strange?"

"What's so strange?" Chen Gu rolled his eyes, his face swollen, and said irritably. You just beat me up, and now you want to discuss things with me again?

"Look at the gathering of the Feng and Chen families today."

Feng Du pondered for a moment and then asked, "How many people are in the Feng family? How many people are in the Chen family?"

Chen Gu's expression changed.

"The Chen family also has many members, gathered together. However, their total number is more than a third less than that of the Feng family! But our two families are roughly the same size."

Feng Du said calmly, "The quality of your family's empty graves... is higher than other families'."

Chen Gu's face turned deathly pale in an instant.

This isn't about the quantity.

But quality.

The issue of bloodlines within the Chen family's main base.

Those who were gathered here to participate in the reprimand were all direct descendants of the Chen family, generation after generation! Yet, they numbered about one-third less than the Feng family.

Chen Gu knew what his family was like.

Since the establishment of the nine major families, the Chen, Bi, and Feng families have always been the three families with the largest populations.

But now...

Therefore, Feng Du's words about the "quality of empty graves" were a rude awakening for Chen Gu.

"It's about to start."

Chen Gu said coldly, "Third Brother, in this wave, each of us is facing our own descendants! Whether there are many or few... it depends on our luck. No matter how many or how few, we can create them, and we can also send them back to hell."

Feng Du walked forward with his hands behind his back, and said calmly, "It's been a long time since I've taken the initiative to make a move. This time... I will take the initiative and lead the team. None of them will be left alive. No matter who they are."

"Me too."

Chen Gu took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with unprecedented ferocity.

……

The capital city was peaceful.

Feng Du has issued a gag order regarding the Feng family's affairs! Who dares to spread them?!
Even someone as audacious as Ning Zaifei only dared to give a hint to his superior, Night Demon.

But it must be said that taking Ning Zaifei's step was already a huge risk!
After this incident, when Feng Yun was carrying out the auditing task again, he finally couldn't hold back his anger and started nitpicking at Feng Nuan, losing his temper!
If it weren't for your instigation since childhood, Feng Nuan, how could things have turned out this way?

Feng Nuan had no choice but to accept this in silence.

I also asked everyone not to spread this around.

After sending the message to Night Demon, Feng Yun kept thinking about one thing: from beginning to end, all the information, including motives, inside stories, and the final outcome.

That's all understandable!
Feng Yun was even more aware of his ancestor's feelings for Feng Yi and the others.

Of course, the question now is, where did Feng Du get this information from?

Feng Yun could only think of one person: Feng Yi, who had never shown up.

So, it all makes sense.

However, there is one most unusual thing about it: starlight!

Feng Xing's subordinates have already revealed Xing Mang.

But Feng Du didn't say a word.

They didn't even say how to deal with the starburst, just letting it go so easily.

To others, Feng Du might have felt that Xing Mang was unimportant, and after reading the chat between Xing Mang and Feng Xing, he didn't find anything wrong with it, so he ignored it.

But Feng Yun asked himself, if he were the ancestor, would he stop at this time?
Why did you leave the starlight behind without even saying a word about the investigation?
That's absolutely impossible!
Since the patriarch chose to stop here, there must be a reason. And that reason must lie in the words 'starlight'.

So what exactly is so special about the starburst pattern?
Can you silence the ancestor?

Give up the pursuit?

Feng Yun frowned, thinking to himself, "How did Xingmang come into contact with the Ancestor? How did the Ancestor know about Xingmang? What kind of status does Xingmang need to make the Ancestor make such a choice? And where does Xingmang's status come from?"

"Why?"

He was thinking about all these issues.

They arrived at Fengyue's room.

Feng Xue was there, sitting in front of Feng Yue's bed, looking at her with concern.

Feng Yue can now speak, but she is still somewhat weak.

"Big brother."

"Lie down."

Feng Yun also found a brocade stool and sat down.

The three siblings sat together, and for a long time, none of them spoke.

Because I don't know what to say.

Even the glances they exchanged were filled with varying degrees of bewilderment.

a long time.

In the tense atmosphere, Feng Yuncai said, "It's all in the past. From now on, let's pretend it never happened... let's pretend they never existed."

"Mmm," Feng Yue replied, her voice choked with emotion.

“That guy… is still here, in the Spirit Serpent Sect… it’s that She Wushen,” Feng Xue whispered.

"I already knew about this."

A glint flashed in Feng Yun's eyes.

"Feng Xue, did I scare you today?" Feng Yun asked with concern.

Feng Xue's face was still deathly pale.

"No...it's just a little...a little sudden."

Feng Xue's lifeless eyes: "A little lost, a little tired."

"understand."

Feng Yun sighed: "Rest at home for a while, then go find Xiao Han and Yun Yan... You'll feel better over there. But the Ancestor has given a gag order for this matter, so... don't say anything more."

"Ok."

Feng Xue lowered her eyelashes.

As she herself said, she was mostly shocked and bewildered by this. Sadness and other emotions... hadn't even had a chance to arise yet. Her mind was a complete mess.

Feng Yue lay on the bed, weakly saying, "Big brother, sister, I still don't understand... why he attacked me... I, I... why did he attack me?"

Feng Xing himself has already made his reasons for taking action very clear.

But Feng Yue, the youngest, still couldn't accept it. She was so upset that her grief overwhelmed her fear of death, and she cried, "What did I do to wrong him? Waaah..."

She actually started crying, feeling wronged.

"..."

Feng Yun felt utterly exhausted, both physically and mentally, and didn't even want to speak.

After a long silence, he said heavily, "Power ruins people... ambition ruins people... alas..."

After saying those words, Feng Yun was too tired to speak.

After giving Feng Xue a few words of advice, Feng Yun left with a pound of weight in his steps.

Eager to return home, he lay down on the bed under Chen Xue's careful care, covering his head and face with the blanket, and drifted off to sleep.

Chen Xue was serving nearby and only vaguely heard Feng Yun say one sentence.

"...The matter with the Feng family should end here..."

This sentence contains a sense of relief, a prayer, and an indescribable bitterness and despair.

Chen Xue couldn't help but feel a pang of pain in her heart.

Yes, so many things have happened in such a short period of time.

Tomorrow at dawn.

Feng Yun kept everything to herself and went to work as usual. Of course, the first thing she did was to catch Feng Nuan and give her a good scolding.

Then, calming his mind, he methodically began handling his daily tasks. He sorted out the accounts and carried out the killings in batches.

Awaiting Yan Nan's orders.

That night.

Yan Nan and his men divided their forces into nine groups.

The nine deputy leaders mobilized together, each responsible for one location!
All the top masters of the Only Righteous Sect mobilized.

They seized the secret underground area of ​​the nine mountain villas in one fell swoop!
The battle that night caused the land within a radius of thousands of miles to tremble violently!
Under Bai Jing's arrangement, all the exits of every underground cave were instantly blocked.

They charged in from three directions.

After this battle, the true purpose of the Sovereign Cult will be exposed and will inevitably spread.

Yan Nan mobilized all his forces, including countless experts and even tens of thousands of assassins, to set up nine deadly traps!

"Capture them alive if they're better, but dead ones are fine too!"

The nine secret caves of the Divine Weasel Cult, hidden within the nine major families, were destroyed in an instant!

There are naturally more than nine such secret caves, but these nine are the largest!

Concentrate our forces on attacking these nine locations; it doesn't matter if the others get wind of it and flee.

After capturing nine sites, they immediately began searching for other secret caves without stopping.

Sure enough, in such a short time, the vast majority of them had already disappeared without a trace.

However, they still managed to capture two more people who hadn't managed to escape or were hoping for a lucky break. The people here were all still followers of the Orthodox Church and hadn't completely converted to the Divine Weasel Cult. But upon closer inspection, they were all, without exception, people from the empty graves of the Nine Great Families.

“The Bi family has two caves, the Chen family has four caves, the Wu family has one cave, the Xiong family has one cave, the Feng family has one cave, the Yu family has one cave, and the Xiang family has one cave.”

"The Yan family doesn't have it, and neither does the Bai family."

Yan Nan announced the result.

The brothers were utterly shocked: "It's understandable that the Yan family didn't have any, but why didn't the Bai family?"

No matter how confused you are, the Bai family simply doesn't have it!

Moreover, the Bai family did not possess such a secret cave, and there was not a trace of joy in Bai Jing's face or eyes.

It seems quite ordinary and has nothing to do with me.

"Why! Why didn't the Bai family get it..."

Xiong Jiang was shouting, but when he turned around and saw Bai Jing's indifferent attitude, he suddenly paused. He muttered, "Seeing the Eighth Brother, I feel that the Bai family doesn't have a secret cave... This is actually quite normal."

The brothers burst into laughter.

"However, the Bi family and the Chen family are really something this time... especially the Chen family, they're in the lead. Their huge numerical advantage makes it impossible for other families to catch up."

Bai exclaimed, "Seventh Brother, you deserved those two slaps!"

Chen Gu, his face swollen, said, "Can you please not talk?"

Bi Changhong, on the contrary, relaxed and even a little proud: "My family only has two..."

"Let's get started on the interrogation."

Yan Nan angrily cut off the old men's discussion, saying, "You've arrested your own descendants! Don't you feel any remorse at all? You're just here bragging and chatting? You're all so happy, is that something to be proud of?"

Everyone said together, "What's the use of being angry? They've already done it all..."

Yan Nan: "..."

Yan Nan had absolutely no idea how these guys felt.

From Yan Nan's perspective, it is indeed difficult to understand: because nothing ever happened to his Yan family from beginning to end.

So he simply couldn't understand why these old guys had suddenly become enlightened and attained enlightenment on the spot.

Because... everything that happened during this period was revolutionary, the kind that's incredibly embarrassing! But... firstly, it's not like it's just my family that's embarrassed!
If we all throw it together, what's there to be afraid of? Why should I feel angry or guilty?
Of course, the second point is the most important: these kinds of things have been happening far too frequently lately!

I'm so embarrassed today, I'm furious.

I'll lose face tomorrow and get really angry.

I'll be embarrassed and furious the day after tomorrow.

Embarrassing myself the day after tomorrow: Oh, you're embarrassing yourself too... Hahaha... Never mind then.

Everyone's used to it!

Damn it, if our descendants don't cause trouble or scandals... are they even descendants?
"It's just killing someone, isn't it? Aren't descendants people too? Besides, they're already nominally in their graves, so we can just send them back."

Bi Changhong's words made a lot of sense, and the brothers all felt the same way.

"Shameful... I've already lost all face, what face is left to lose?"

Bi Changhong's second sentence became the guiding principle for all his brothers.

"It's not like this is the first time you've embarrassed yourself. Do you have to act like it's your life every time?"

Bi Changhong's third sentence led Yan Nan to beat him up.

"You're the only one who talks too much bullshit!"

Then tasks were assigned.

"Bai Jing led the succubi and demons to the cave in Black Pine Manor to conduct interrogations. They must find out the details of the assassination case from three thousand years ago."

"Yes."

"Bi Changhong, you go..."

Yan Nan has completed the arrangements.

Except for Bai Jing, everyone else ran away in a flash.

Because... even though he said he wasn't afraid of losing face in front of Yan Nan,... no matter how many times he had lost face, his face would still burn with embarrassment.

But... it's never too late to feel ashamed if you run away.

This is the same idea as Feng Du.

"It's like trying to hold down a gourd only to have another one pop up..." Feng Du felt endless regret about coming back this time.

Because if they hadn't come back, they wouldn't have known about these shameful things.

However... Feng Er's revenge must still be taken.

There's no other way around it. As Feng Du himself said: "Other things can be left undone, but this one must be done."

It's already quite remarkable that he was able to endure until the final stage of the Gu cultivation and until everything was over before making his move.

In Feng Du's mind, there was never a thought that 'Feng family members should not be killed'.

But with one embarrassing incident after another, Feng Du is now furious and can no longer maintain his composure as he pretends to be "not angry."

People are gone.

Bai Jing asked, "Why are you keeping me here?"

"Two missions: one is the Divine Weasel Cult, and the other is the interception and killing of Sun Wutian and his group."

Yan Nan said, "I've been thinking about this for a long time. Xie Jian must have been implicated and died... It had nothing to do with him. But Sun Wutian's Hate Heaven Blade, Yin Demon's Yin Sha Qi, Succubus's Heavenly Charm, Poison Demon's Poison... all have a similar ability to counter the Divine Weasel Sect's techniques."

"Even Sun Wutian... was merely there by chance. What they really wanted to eliminate were the Blood Demon, the Poison Demon, the Yin Demon, and the Enchantress..."

Yan Nan said, "But where does this destructive power lie, what are its specific effects, and what areas does it threaten... we need to find out from you. If it's true, we should be able to come up with a plan to strike at the Divine Weasel Cult."

Bai Jing said, "...Now that you mention it, I think it's possible. Could it be that they joined forces?"

Yan Nan: "Have they ever teamed up?"

"..." Bai Jing was speechless.

"How could the Divine Weasel Cult know its power if they hadn't joined forces with them?"

Yan Nan asked.

Bai Jing: "I don't remember them ever teaming up, anyway, I've never seen them. You can ask the succubus."

Yan Nan immediately contacted the Jade Demon and asked, "Have you ever joined forces with the Yin Demon, the Poison Demon, the Blood Demon, and others?"

A brief silence fell over the other end.

After a long silence, he said, "Let us think about it."

A moment later, the succubus replied: "Old Yin said there was such a thing before, the three of us joined forces, along with the Blood Demon. But it was a long time ago, it seems that it was an expedition against the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect... My memory is extremely vague, but I remember that the leader of the team was the eldest of the Chen family."

"Chen Xifeng?"

Yan Nan's heart skipped a beat.

"...I guess...right." The succubus really couldn't remember.

"You two need to quickly recall this; it's very important!"

Yan Nan sighed and said to Bai Jing, "The Yin Demon, the Enchantress, and the Blood Demon joined forces to attack... Sigh, the one leading the team at the time was Chen Xifeng, um, that is, Dong Xitian."

"The Blood Demon... is now completely dead, not even a trace left. Even if it were useful, where would we find it?"

Bai Jing rolled her eyes.

"Night Demon..."

Yan Nan said, "How could you forget your precious darling?"

Bai Jing coughed and said, "I'm afraid they'll use Night Demon as cannon fodder. With his current cultivation level, entering a battle at this level would just make him a pile of shit..."

"..."

Yan Nan was very dissatisfied with Bai Jing's words.

What do you mean by "like a pile of shit"? That's my grandson-in-law!
"You go to work."

Yan Nan issued an order to leave.

Bai Jingswooped away. He knew he had given the warning effectively.

In dangerous situations, demons and succubi would certainly not betray each other; they might even risk their lives to save one another. But with a night demon added to the mix... they would show no mercy in using the night demon as a shield in times of crisis.

How could Bai Jing not be familiar with the modus operandi of these old devils of the righteous sect?
When Yan Nan mentioned that "the Yin Demon, the Enchantress, and the Blood Demon once joined forces," he immediately thought of the Night Demon. How could he not have thought of it? Right now, the only one with the Blood Smoke Hand is the Night Demon?
But he wouldn't say anything, insisting that Yan Nan speak for herself. Only after Yan Nan spoke would he object.

Then Yan Nan understood.

Everyone is gone.

For this matter, Yan Nan even sent out two-thirds of the guards stationed at the main hall, leaving the headquarters somewhat empty.

"The sect's strength hasn't been greatly diminished either..."

Yan Nan came to terms with it: "These people were all long dead and buried...it has nothing to do with the sect's strength. So killing them is no big deal..."

"But this is way too much..."

Yan Nan sighed.

"Let Sanbi lead the team to do this, I'm not getting involved. Luckily he came back at this time, otherwise he would have really kept me busy..."

He then ordered, "Bring over the materials from the Guardians that I didn't have time to look at today."

Then a pile of things were placed in front of me.

Yan Nan looked at each and every one of them.

"The Guardian Headquarters, Kaleidoscope City, suddenly has sprouted tender grass and trees all over the mountains? The whole mountain is green?"

Yan Nan looked at the gray sky outside: "Autumn is almost here again, and everything is sprouting new buds?"

Yan Nan paused for a moment.

Then, as if remembering something, he began to look at the intelligence from the Sovereign Church, including one that was extremely unimportant.

"The grass and trees in the southern mountainous area are sprouting new buds just like in spring... and the earth is all green."

Yan Nan placed the two intelligence reports together: "Huh?"

"What...is there something to this story?"

Yan Nan frowned.

The rest were all about the Guardians' headquarters holding a big meeting, nothing interesting or significant.

Then came a letter about Fang Tu.

"Fang Tu met Zhao Ying'er in Kanke City... Zhao Ying'er cried and left..."

And so on, along with what followed, were sent over as gossip.

"..."

Yan Nan's face darkened: "You even dare to go to Phoenix... You really have no taste for anything... Aren't you afraid of getting a blister there from the high temperature..."

"What a little bastard! You son of a bitch!"

"What the hell!"

"Where you go, women are always after you! Your ability to attract attention is no less than mine back in the day..."

Yan Nan sighed, deeply worried for her granddaughter. "Falling for such a womanizer, you'll be jealous later."

After reviewing the intelligence for a while, Yan Nan shook his head. There wasn't much to note. He simply called in someone and said, "Send a few people to the southern mountainous area to check on the vegetation. How long have the new shoots grown? Have they sprouted throughout the entire south?"

The man said, "...Deputy Chief Cult Leader Yan, in fact, all the plants and trees in Shenjing have also sprouted new buds."

Yan Nan: "..."

His divine sense spread out instantly.

Then I realized: Sure enough!
Tender grass blades are growing on the ground, in the corners of the walls, and in the cracks in the walls. They haven't grown into full-grown grass yet, and their tender green color is soothing to the heart.

All the big trees were also clearly full of vitality, covered with tender buds.

"This is strange... they've all turned green!"

Yan Nan took a deep breath, his expression turning serious: "This phenomenon has started all over the continent, what's going on?"

While I was pondering this, an urgent intelligence report suddenly arrived.

"Report! Urgent report from Guardian Headquarters spies!"

"Suddenly, clouds and mist filled the sky above the Guardian Headquarters, revealing mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas within them, clearly visible. Their movement and posture resembled the imminent arrival of three realms of heaven and earth..."
