Chapter 5818: Tangled
.
Hanyang City almost became a dead city overnight.
The court and Cangyun Sect wanted to block the news.
But nearly one million people died strangely, and Hanyang City was an important town in Jiangnan, so how could it be blocked?
A few hours later, all the sects and forces in the world got this terrible news.
In order to stabilize the people's hearts, Zhao Shiyu immediately issued a notice saying that the tragedy in Hanyang City was caused by the evil spirits in the heavens.
Although the cultivation world had some doubts, no one would say that the massacre of Hanyang City might have been done by the cultivators in the world.
No matter who did it, the murderer can only be the enemy.
Now the world is facing internal and external troubles and can't withstand the storm.
It can only attract the hatred of the people to the enemy.
At this moment, it was the beginning of the Si hour, and a large number of troops had entered Hanyang City.
Corpses were carried out from houses and homes in various parts of the city.
Corpses covered the streets.
Since young and middle-aged people were all conscripted into the army, many of the dead in the city were old, weak, women and children.
In the north of the city is a huge wharf, where more than 100,000 able-bodied civilians died in their sleep.
These people died horribly, with only skin and bones left.
The body of a man who originally weighed more than 100 kilograms now weighed only 20 to 30 kilograms.
Almost all the mortal soldiers who participated in collecting the bodies vomited.
Yang Shijiu walked out of the Yang Mansion.
Her parents escaped, but her twelve sisters, seven brothers-in-law, and more than 30 nephews and nieces died in this inhumane catastrophe.
Fortunately, Yang Ershi, the current pillar of the Yang family, has recently been supervising grain and grass in Xuzhou.
If Yang Ershi died, the huge industry of the Yang family would collapse.
She vowed to catch the murderer and avenge her family.
When she came to the street, she soon entered the slaughter area.
The street was full of corpses.
There was not enough white cloth, and the soldiers could only use the bedding of the dead to cover the bodies.
Now the weather is a bit hot, and these bodies must be disposed of as soon as possible, otherwise it is easy to cause plague.
The drunk Taoist squatted down and checked several mummies.
Seeing Yang Shijiu coming over, he said, "Shijiu, are your parents okay?"
Yang Shijiu's eyes were red, and it was obvious that this chivalrous woman who was as brave as a man had cried at home before.
Yang Shijiu nodded gently and said, "Thanks to the people from Jixiang Temple and Langya Xianzong who noticed something was wrong and arrived in time, the devouring demon light did not spread to my house.
However, many of my sisters and brothers-in-law... are dead."
The drunk Taoist sighed.
Junior Sister Xiaozhu immediately comforted Yang Shijiu.
Taoist Chi Yan beside him said slowly: "Indiscriminate attack, in any area covered by the demon light, not to mention people, even livestock have no survivors.
According to Xuan Hui Shen Ni who arrived first, the demon light was blue and full of terrifying devouring demon power.
Xuan Hui Shen Ni concentrated all her strength on a palm, but was easily resolved by the opponent.
The opponent's cultivation is beyond imagination, and he is definitely a peerless demon above the Xumi realm."
Many elders and seniors around nodded slightly in agreement.
Almost all the victims were sucked dry of blood and flesh in an instant, and their souls were taken away. Except for the Xumi strongmen, no one has this ability.
Ning Xiangruo and Du Chun are standing at the outermost of the Cangyunmen.
Their faces are so ugly.
At the same time, the monk Kong Wu of Jiaye Temple and the Taoist Chun Yangzi of Tianshi Dao also have very solemn expressions.
The way these people in Hanyang City died is very similar to the massacre along the Yangtze River.
Blue demonic light, devouring flesh and blood...
They all vaguely guessed the answer, but they didn't dare to believe it.
They didn't dare to voice their doubts.
It was noon in Hanyang City.
It was just dawn in the Poison Dragon Valley, more than 10,000 miles away in the west.
Ye Xiaochuan sat on a chair in the stone chamber, his face livid.
Wang Keke was reporting the news from Hanyang City.
"All the people and animals in the western suburbs, western city, northern wharf, northern city, eastern city, and eastern suburbs of Hanyang City have died. Only a small area in the southern city and the refugee camp in the southern suburbs were not attacked.
According to the data sent back, the death toll in Hanyang City this time is expected to exceed 800,000.
The court and Cangyunmen both issued statements for the first time, accusing the demons in the heavens of exterminating humanity.
The two emperors of the heavens also issued a statement half an hour ago, firmly denying that the Hanyang City tragedy was caused by them.
And...they said in the statement..."
Wang Keke hesitated.
"What did they say?"
"They said... Only the Changsheng Jue, the most evil and sinister of the Three Realms, could drain the blood, flesh and soul of so many people in an instant."
Wang Keke said cautiously.
At the same time, he carefully observed Ye Xiaochuan's expression.
However, Ye Xiaochuan's expression did not seem to change at all.
Ye Xiaochuan said: "How are my junior sister's family?"
Wang Keke said: "Yang Shijiu's parents live in South City and escaped the disaster and were not affected."
Ye Xiaochuan nodded slightly.
Wang Keke said: "Xiaochuan, the two emperors of the heavenly realm obviously have bad intentions. We must explain as soon as possible. The impact of this matter is too bad. We can't get involved."
Ye Xiaochuan said: "You go to Long Tianshan to discuss and draft a statement and send it out as soon as possible."
Ye Xiaochuan didn't care much about his reputation before.
Not anymore, he is still aiming to unify the human world.
If the two emperors of the heavenly realm distort public opinion and throw dirty water on him, it will be extremely detrimental to his reputation.
After Wang Keke left, Ye Xiaochuan began to pinch his eyebrows.
He knew that the tragedy in Hanyang City was mostly caused by Yu Jizi.
However, he did not dare to say it.
Not because of the many years of nurturing grace of Cangyun Sect.
But because of two words.
The overall situation.
That's right, pushing Tuoba Yu to become the leader of the Demon Cult is for the overall situation.
Helping Yu Jizi to conceal this matter is still for the overall situation.
Now as long as Ye Xiaochuan tells the truth about the tragedy in Hanyang City and the massacre of the village in Yinmai, Yangtze River, Yu Jizi will be completely finished, and the last obstacle for Ye Xiaochuan to compete for the master of the human world will collapse instantly.
But he can't say it.
Because only Yu Jizi can control the terrible magic circle on Cangyun Mountain.
With that magic circle, the human world can win 20% in the decisive battle.
With the battle strength of both sides evenly matched, the 20% chance is enough to turn the tide.
Ye Xiaochuan's soul entered the Six Paths of Reincarnation and told Mu Shen and Ye Cha about the incident in Hanyang City.
After listening to it, the two of them looked very calm, neither humble nor arrogant, neither surprised nor panicked, showing the demeanor of a master.
Ye Cha said: "Xiaochuan, are you sure that Yu Jizi did this?"
Ye Xiaochuan shook his head and said: "I'm not completely sure, only 80% sure. I still can't believe that the once wise and wise master uncle can do such a cruel thing."
Ye Cha said: "The remaining 20% is based on your feelings for Yu Jizi. Alas, it seems that he did it."
Ye Xiaochuan said: "What should I do? If I take action against him, no one can control the reincarnation sword formation, and the combat power of the world will be sharply reduced. I can't be sure now how much Yu Jizi's mind has been demonized. If I leave it alone, I'm worried that many innocent people will die."
