Creation of the Universe

Just as Shen Zhan and his four companions were about to leave, Zhao Tiange stopped first, as if he had noticed something.

He slowly turned his head and looked. The darkness extended to the entrance of the alley. Several narrow black shadows were cast obliquely on the wall.

The visitor was Commander Wang, who had been asked by Sun Jiang to act as his henchman. This time he was responsible for the defense and order in Yingtian City during the military alliance meeting, and tonight he happened to be leading the patrol himself.

There was such a big commotion in the alley, and there were obvious fluctuations of spiritual power, so he naturally had to bring people over to see what was going on.

But if he could know in advance the identities of the bodies lying on the ground and the background of the people who attacked him, he would definitely not make a decision that would make him regret it so much.

"Who are you?! Stand still and don't move, or I'll kill you without mercy!"

The strong smell of blood made Commander Wang's palms sweat, but he couldn't show cowardice in front of his men. He walked cautiously into the depths of the alley.

There were four figures in front of him. After hearing his warning, they stood still obediently. Commander Wang gradually became proud. He had more than 2,000 troops under his command in Yingtian City. No one would dare to act rashly here!

As Commander Wang was moving, he suddenly tripped and almost fell over something. Fortunately, he was not far from the wall and caught himself in time to avoid embarrassment.

But just as he steady himself, he looked at the ground and immediately broke out in a cold sweat, with his hair standing on end.

"this......"

His first instinctive reaction was to shout loudly, but the sound got stuck in his throat and no sound came out.

This strange feeling was as if someone had grabbed his neck, making it impossible for him to speak. The men behind him could only hear strange "click...click..." noises.

Commander Wang seemed to relax a little when more people came to him, but they soon discovered six corpses in this alley!

"So many people died. What on earth happened here just now?"

One of the men exclaimed.

Commander Wang looked up and forward again, but the four dark shadows were nowhere to be found.

Instead, he calmed down and said, "You two, search these people for any items and confirm their identities as soon as possible."

"And you, take some brothers and check the surrounding area. Report back immediately if you find any clues!"

The men responded and took action.

The more times like this, the more you have to show that you are stronger than others. While giving orders, Commander Wang stared at the man on the ground with a gloomy face, whose internal organs were shattered by internal energy.

"Who on earth dares to kill people at will in Yingtian City today? It's simply too rampant!"

As the main person in charge of the city's defense, Commander Wang felt the provocation from the other side.

Without waiting for a detailed investigation, he asserted, "It's the period of the Martial Arts Alliance, and many people from the underworld are entering and leaving Yingtian City every day. The whole city is a mixed bag, so it's not surprising that something like this happened.

The deaths of these six unknown people are nothing, but the murderer who killed them deserves attention. We cannot allow any more trouble to occur under my rule.

If the prince blames us later, both you and I will be in big trouble!"

"what!!!"

Before he finished speaking, one of his men squatted in front of the corpse behind Commander Wang, and the expression on his face gradually became solemn.

Commander Wang sneered, "You're such a loser! Is a dead man enough to scare you like this?"

The subordinate waited with wide eyes, and it took a long time for him to come back to his senses and explain to him, "Boss, I was scared just now, but not because I was afraid of the dead body, but because this person's identity is really extraordinary!"

"What is his identity?"

"This man is called Wang Tonghai. He's from the Wang family. I recognize him."

Commander Wang was so angry that he almost kicked him. "Nonsense! My last name is Wang too. Is it worth making such a fuss?"

The subordinate then added: "It's the Wang family of Lingzhou..."

"Wha...what?"

Wang Tonghai felt a little confused. There were countless people with the surname Wang in the world, but why did the one who died happen to be a member of the Wang family in Lingzhou?

"Are you sure?"

"It's absolutely true. He is the second son of the Wang family's outer sect in Lingzhou. I recognize his Juque sword, but I don't know why the sword was cut off!"

After receiving the affirmative answer, Commander Wang felt his legs go weak and he was about to lose his balance and almost fell down.

The two people beside him hurriedly supported him, thinking that Commander Wang didn't drink much earlier, so why were his legs shaking now?

"You mean, someone from the Wang family of Lingzhou died in Yingtian City? If this news spreads to Lingzhou, how will the Wang family react..."

"Boss, I believe the Wang family will not let this go. They will use all their strength to find the murderer and avenge him in their own unique way!"

Yes, that is the Wang family, which has connections everywhere, and Wang Tonghai has a high status in the family. How could he have encountered such a thing?

Commander Wang had a face full of sorrow and worry. He was still a little drunk when he came here, but now it was like a basin of cold water was poured over his head, and his heart was chilled to the bone.

Here, Commander Wang and others were cleaning up the mess, while Shen Zhan, Chu Qiu and the other four had already escaped quietly at some point. They successfully killed Wang Tonghai and his group of six before Wang Tianqing arrived in Yingtian.

In this way, they should have taken the initiative and would not have to face the huge threat posed by the combination of Wang Tonghai and Wang Tianqing.

"It's not far ahead."

Chu Qiu jumped lightly onto a roof and his eyes fell on a secluded courtyard not far ahead, where the target person was hiding.

Meng Zhong strode forward, saying, "If he can honestly hand over the Ten Thousand Years Longevity Root, that's fine. But if he refuses to cooperate, I'll teach him a lesson!"

The Ten Thousand Years Longevity Root was nurtured by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and originally did not belong to anyone. It was unknown how that casual cultivator obtained it, but in short, he could not be considered a good person. He even attracted a large group of people to fight for the Ten Thousand Years Longevity Root.

Including Wang Tonghai and six others, many people have lost their lives due to the appearance of the Ten Thousand Years Immortality Root.

At this moment, the anxious Meng Zhong just wanted to rescue his good brother Hu Meng as soon as possible. Unknowingly, he was one step ahead of others and stepped into this inconspicuous little courtyard.

"It's useless for you to keep the Ten Thousand Years Immortality Root. Why don't you hand it over and let me save my brother's life? Just consider it as a favor that I, Meng Zhong, owe you. I will repay you one day. How about that?"

After Meng Zhong finished speaking, the yard fell silent, and no other sounds could be heard...

There is an indescribable weird atmosphere everywhere around this courtyard.
