Chapter 986 Heavenly Punishment
The bloody rain came suddenly, and no one understood what was happening.

As the spiritual energy rapidly diminished, everyone assumed it was a divine punishment.

Although they could no longer ascend to immortality, they could still manage to cultivate back then.

But one night hundreds of years ago, blood rained down from the sky once again.

Everyone knew then that things were going to go wrong again.

As expected, once the blood rain ended, the spiritual energy began to decrease at an increasingly rapid pace.

This makes cultivation increasingly difficult for everyone.

The Nascent Soul cultivators of today are all veteran cultivators who cultivated hundreds of years ago. Young cultivators who can reach the Golden Core stage are all geniuses among geniuses...

This clearly demonstrates just how poor the spiritual energy is now.

However, the record that Feng Jiuxiao saw mentioned that a cultivator once witnessed a strange sight when blood rained down from the sky.

It is said that a figure appeared in the sky at lightning speed, but disappeared without a trace in just a moment.

But since only he saw it, no one really believed him and just wrote it down as a rumor.

I mentioned this briefly.

The two exchanged a glance, a look of seriousness flashing in their eyes.

"It seems that this move was made a thousand years ago. The heart of the wood carving industry has truly never been broken over the years!"

Feng Jiuxiao was very angry.

The wood-plastic industry is truly insidious. When they are no longer capable, they will try to seize resources from other worlds, and they will stop at nothing to do so.

That's absolutely disgusting!!!

Song Wanning nodded thoughtfully, wondering where the wood carving industry had learned these dirty tricks from, which kept coming up one after another.

Now that the cause has been clarified, the key is how to break the deadlock.

The two were once again in distress, as they had no clue what to do about the matter.

However, as soon as they returned to the inn, they were surrounded by a group of people.

"They're from the Yu family!"

The voices of the couple echoed in their minds, and Song Wanning and Feng Jiuxiao raised their eyebrows slightly.

Judging from their aggressive demeanor, it seems they've come to settle scores?
But the real victims were Yu Rui and his wife.

What do these people mean?
"Yu Rui, you all need to come back to the Yu family with us right away. The patriarch wants to see you!"

We are all from the same family, and we all know each other.

So, they're still being quite polite.

"What happened? Why is the patriarch in such a hurry to call us back?"

A cold glint flashed in Song Wanning's eyes. According to Yu Rui and the others' description, the person who harmed them was the head of the family's son.

They harmed them because they feared he would seize the position of the next head of the family.

Unexpectedly, the couple survived.

"We don't know about that; we are just following the orders of the head of the family."

"Come with us!"

A group of people surrounded Song Wanning and her companion completely, leaving them no gaps.

"Okay."

Song Wanning didn't refuse; she also wanted to see what the Yu family head was up to.

If they have malicious intentions, then they can seize the position of family head and use the Yu family to gather information...

Feng Jiuxiao clearly shared the same idea, so he didn't resist at all and simply followed along.

In their minds, the couple were very worried and kept urging them not to go back, fearing they would be silenced.

After all, their cultivation level was simply insufficient to resist the head of the Yu family.

However, Song Wanning and the other woman remained unmoved and insisted on returning to the Yu family.

At this moment, the entire Yu family was in a tense atmosphere. Everyone knew that the patriarch's son was dead, and that he had been killed by Yu Rui.

Yu Rui is the most talented descendant of the Yu family in this generation. He is highly valued by the family, and even the head of the family takes good care of him.

Now that something like this has happened, the Yu family is probably in chaos.

In the lobby, everyone sat in silence, the atmosphere heavy.

Some elders wanted to speak up for Yu Rui, but they all knew that at this critical juncture, anything they said would be met with a severe scolding from the family head.

I decided to keep quiet for now and wait until Yu Rui comes back.

Therefore, when Song Wanning and her companion arrived, everyone in the hall silently sat up straight and looked at them with surprise.

Unexpectedly, the two didn't run away, but dared to come back.

Upon seeing the two, the patriarch's face instantly darkened, his expression becoming extremely gloomy.

He was shrouded in murderous intent, and he released his power almost the instant the two entered, attempting to force them to their knees with his aura.

But no matter how strong his aura was, the two of them remained as steady as Mount Tai and were not affected at all.

At this moment, the other elders also noticed the problem and looked at the two of them with surprise.

Upon closer inspection, something seemed amiss.

They were clearly the same two people, but their auras were different, like...like the aura of a Nascent Soul Ancestor...

It also reflects the aura of someone in a superior position.

Even though their cultivation level is lower than theirs, why do they seem even more arrogant than them?
Everyone was puzzled; it had only been a short time since they last met, yet the changes in the two were quite obvious.

The patriarch's face also darkened, and he questioned sharply, "Yu Rui, did you kill Yu Yao?"

"No, of course not!"

In their minds, the two subconsciously denied it.

They were almost killed, how could they have killed Yuyao?
"No, Yuyao... Yuyao is dead?"

They were stunned for a moment before they realized what the other person meant.

Yuyao actually died?

Seeing that the two didn't seem to be lying, Feng Jiuxiao coldly denied it, saying, "My wife and I did not kill Yu Yao. On the contrary, Yu Yao tricked us into going out and almost killed us!"

"If we hadn't been lucky, we wouldn't be back now!"

As she spoke, she took out a recording stone.

The couple wasn't stupid. When Yuyao suddenly took action, they thought of recording the scene so they could report it later.

Yu Yao assumed they were doomed and paid no attention to these things, allowing them to leave behind evidence.

As the image was displayed before everyone, their expressions became quite complex.

The head of the family, in particular, was visibly embarrassed.

Seeing Yu Yao's arrogant demeanor, the patriarch's eyes revealed endless disappointment.

"That unfilial son...how dare he..."

He was too indulgent with this son from a young age, and as a result, it was very difficult to correct him when he grew up.

But all along, the son had only been playing minor pranks and had never harmed anyone.

This time, they even tried to harm Yu Rui...

Yu Rui was groomed by him to be the next head of the family.

It seems that Yu Yao wanted to harm Yu Rui because she was jealous of this.

After watching the recorded footage, just when Song Wanning thought the other party was about to turn hostile, the head of the family unexpectedly stepped down from his high position and bowed deeply to them.

“It was my son’s fault that he almost caused your deaths.”

"Although he is dead, your sins cannot be in vain. I will definitely make amends to you!"

He originally thought that Yu Rui had killed Yu Yao, so naturally they should pay with their lives.

But now that we know the whole story, we absolutely cannot do this.
