Chapter 98 - Truth?
From the looks of the exposed bones, there were many that were different from the ones they had seen in the crumbling courtyard. Many of them were just ordinary bones.
The Fish Dragon Village had been destroyed. There were 354 villagers living in the village back then. Even if all of their corpses were here, there should not be so many of them. Moreover, they had been fishing out corpses in the last decade and they were still going strong to this day. Taking into account the remains that had been washed away by the current, just how many people had died in the river? There were certainly other people as well, apart from the Bais.
Ding Fanqiu’s expression was indifferent. It was as though he was used to seeing dead people. When he entered the warehouse, he merely raised his hand slightly to cover his mouth and nose. He ordered his disciples, “Search.”
“Understood.” The three disciples went to work and checked the contents of the boxes.
Lu Zhou felt even more suspicious when he saw this. ‘What are they looking for?’
However, before Lu Zhou could ask about it, Ding Fangqiu suddenly said, “These are the bones of the Other Tribes…”
“Other Tribes?”
Ding Fangqiu calmly stood with his hands on his back. He did not seem to be affected by this news. He was an elite in the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm after all. There was no need for him to feel afraid.
No number of soldiers could stop a Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm cultivator from leaving through the air.
Ding Fanqiu looked at the cultivators hovering above the soldiers. ‘Sense Condensing realm, Brahman Sea realm, and a few in the Divine Court realm. With these numbers, they want to stop me?’”Little girl… don’t blink…” Although Ding Fangqiu did not turn around, it was clear he was speaking to Little Yuan’er.
Lu Zhou continued stroking his beard as though all these had nothing to do with him.
At the same time, an imposing aura surged out from Ding Fanqiu’s body. With a single step, he was out of the warehouse.
Bzzt!
A 50 feet tall avatar towered above the others in the air. The avatar was faint blue in color. It looked extremely terrifying. It was surrounded by energy. The golden lotus under it unfurled its leaves, revealing four leaves.
The soldiers and cultivators near the jetty saw this, and their expressions changed greatly as they took several steps back. However, they did not run away. They only cautiously put some distance between them and the avatar.
Little Yuan’er muttered disdainfully, “Only four leaves…”
Ding Fangqiu’s female disciple rolled her eyes and said, “What do you know? Our master’s strength is peerless. He’s conserving his strength. Four leaves are enough to deal with these people. A Divine Court realm cultivator’s avatar can reach Ten Worlds, at most. With the Hundred Tribulations Insight, everyone here will have to prostrate themselves.”
At this moment, waves and waves of energy rolled off Ding Fanqiu’s Four-leaf avatar.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The buildings near the jetty shook and rattled.
The soldiers retreated further. The cultivators raised their guards.
One of the cultivators shouted, “Everyone, stay calm… Let’s retreat slowly. News from the palace states that this person isn’t the real Ji Tiandao!”
“A Grand Witchcraft Formation has been laid down here yesterday… Let’s head back to the Grand Formation. When the elites from the palace arrive, these criminals will be taken care of in one fell swoop. No matter who it is, death to the intruders!”
“Death to the intruders!”
“Death to the intruders!”
The soldiers began chanting loudly.
