Chapter 735: The Return of Destruction to the Central Plains
The Mu Family’s surveillance of the Lingxiao Palace never ceased…
Yin Hu even ordered his subordinates to continuously track the location of the twenty-nine survivors from the attack on the branch temple, to prevent them from escaping the intricate web set up by the Mu Family once they reappeared.
This strict surveillance not only kept the tense atmosphere in Yangzhou City intact but also caused great distress among the Lingxiao Palace members, who felt suffocated and frequently clashed verbally!
A strong sense of hostility filled the skies over entire Yangzhou City.
The Mu Family showed no signs of retreating…
On the contrary, more and more skilled fighters arrived from other cities, group after group. Instead of easing the tension, they heightened the pre-battle atmosphere in Yangzhou City!
The attackers on the Mu Family still hadn’t reappeared.
The Mu Family showed no intention of downplaying the situation; instead, they seemed determined to unleash chaos… This finally made the Lingxiao Palace, which had always relied on flexibility, become restless.
…
Several major events also occurred that day!
On the day the Mu Family’s branch temple was attacked, the mysterious man in black fought against Yin Hu. Though their encounter was brief, he never gained the upper hand and instead saw his internal energy weaken, indicating he was on the verge of defeat.
However, after Yin Hu withdrew from the battlefield following the attack on his temple, the mysterious man in black removed his mask, left Yangzhou, and founded the “White Robe Sect”!
From then on, there was no longer a mysterious man in black in the martial world—only the leader of the White Robe Sect, “Jian Piao”!
Although Jian Piao’s battle didn’t cause much upheaval or publicity, his battles recorded on paid REP platforms, such as the one at Yangzhou Port and his first visual REP battles against Hong Chen and Yin Hu, had a significant impact on him.
On the first day the White Robe Sect was established, many people flocked to join them!
It wasn’t just because of his exceptional skills; many were also highly interested in his identity as a martial artist, hoping to learn from him…
…
As the flag of the Mu Family’s branch temple was torn down, dozens of Mu Family disciples rushed out, their eyes filled with hostility as they stared at the group outside:
“Who are you! How dare you come and wreak havoc in the Mu Family’s territory!”
The people outside wore very strange attire. Apart from the leader, who wore a conical hat and dressed like a martial artist from the Central Plains, the others were dressed in bright colors with various colored headscarves—clearly not from the Central Plains.
The group outside remained indifferent…
The man wearing the conical hat calmly took a few steps forward, his tone leisurely: “Hehe… The Mu Family, what a famous name! Even during my time in Persia, its reputation was well-known. Truly, its fame spreads far and wide…” At that moment, his tone suddenly changed: “But the fact that you don’t even recognize me saddens me greatly.” As he spoke, his body suddenly turned into a blur and disappeared from his original position, reappearing on the steps of the altar, right beside a group of Mu Family disciples.
Cough! Cough!!
The group of Mu Family disciples were shocked. Sensing that something was wrong, they immediately drew their swords—this person must have come looking for trouble!
“Quick! Notify the three altar masters!”
“Altar masters?” The man in the conical hat chuckled lightly: “No need. I’m just passing by this time, wanting to say hello to the friends of the Mu Family and give them a reminder.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the disciples grew suspicious: “Hiding and acting sneaky… Who exactly are you?” someone couldn’t help but shout angrily.
“Your voice is too loud.”
It was impossible to see how the man in the conical hat moved. Only a cold snort could be heard, and the disciple who spoke suddenly screamed as a gust of wind lifted him off the ground, pulling him uncontrollably toward the man in the hat.
The latter slowly stretched out his hand…
Ugh!
The disciple’s eyes filled with terror as if his neck had been tightly grasped by someone.
“Stop!”
“Save him!”
Furious, the disciples drew their swords and slashed at the man’s arms and body…
Blades flashing!
Yet the man in the conical hat remained unfazed, applying slight force with his arm, and the sound of bones breaking came from the disciple’s throat. At the same time, more swords struck him…
Clang! Clang!
His body trembled, and his conical hat and clothes shattered and flew apart; yet the disciples’ swords seemed to hit an iron wall, bouncing back due to the rebound force!
Their full-force attacks couldn’t cause even the slightest harm to the man in front of them…
Everyone was stunned.
Only a few people, upon seeing his clothes and hat completely shattered, revealing his bizarre black-and-white body, seemed to remember something!!
Pointing at the man who looked like a demon king, unharmed and sneering at them: “The Immortal Nether King Technique!”
“You’re Huang Sha! The vice leader of the First-Class Hall!!”
One after another, the disciples recognized Huang Sha’s identity and stepped back, gasping for breath…
As soon as those words were spoken, he laughed heartily, raising his arms: “Haha…”
“It seems the people of the Mu Family still remember me, Huang Sha!”
“It’s really you! Huang Sha! Deputy Head of the First-Class Hall! Today you killed the brothers of the Mu Family. It seems you intend to provoke a war between the Mu Family and the First-Class Hall!!!”
The disciples of the Mu Family demanded in a mix of shock and anger.
As soon as he said this, he was suddenly pulled away by an overwhelming force he couldn’t resist. His throat tightened, and he heard Huang Sha’s deliberately lowered, icy voice: “If I’m going to provoke a war, then I will. Otherwise, why do you think I, Huang Sha, traveled all this way back to the Central Plains…”
Crack!
Without even being able to activate his protective skills, his neck was broken by Huang Sha’s immense strength, and his consciousness was completely erased.
In less than half a minute…
The entrance to the Mu Family’s branch was covered in corpses.
Huang Sha walked through the scattered bodies without looking back, returned to a group of players in strange attire, put on his cloak, glanced once more at the Mu Family’s sign, then turned and left.
Those who witnessed this scene were all shocked by Huang Sha’s insane actions and spread the news everywhere!
Huang Sha has returned!
His first act was to slaughter the unremarkable disciples guarding the Mu Family’s branch…
Such behavior was completely contrary to the First-Class Hall’s strategy of restraint and low profile over the past half year.
Many people began to speculate.
Was Huang Sha’s return and his actions against the Mu Family his own decision, or was it ordered by the First-Class Hall?
If it was the latter…
Many people gasped in shock.
If it truly was the First-Class Hall’s orders, then the entire martial world would likely become unstable again.
But they were very curious—how could the now-weakened First-Class Hall deliberately provoke the thriving Mu Family? What was their plan? Did they have new goals, or new advantages?
The mystery behind this, as revealed by the moves Huang Sha used, also affected the entire martial world…
After mastering the “Immortal Dark King Art,” Huang Sha acquired another peerless martial skill—one of the legendary extraordinary arts: the “Great Heaven and Earth Shift”!
The martial world was in turmoil!!!
