Unfortunately, Duke of Wei was assassinated less than two years after becoming emperor. His son Chen Xu naturally took up the throne, and his reign title was changed from Jianwu to Yuanping, and now it is the eighth year of Yuanping.

When the Wei Kingdom was fair in the world, the Tianmen even maintained the power of those who obeyed me and prospered me and died, and the entire Shenzhou River was cleaned up. Sects of all sizes, large and small, either surrendered and merged into the Tianmen or ushered in destruction. As a result, many sects who were unwilling to surrender to the Tianmen fled in scattered places, or were waiting for an opportunity to revenge on the Tianmen.

It is said that the assassination of Duke Wei was related to this.

So later, both the Great Wei and the Tianmen were working hard to eliminate these unstable sect remnants. In order to avoid the search and pursuit between the two, these sect remnants had to stay away from China.

The vast desert, rarely visited in the west, is a suitable place to hide.

However, they underestimated Tianmen’s determination to eradicate the roots.

Monk and other sand thieves became the targets selected by Tianmen, and were specifically responsible for searching for the whereabouts of the remnants of these sects.

Not long ago.

Monk and others discovered a remnant of a sect with their families, and then started to hunt them down.

However, the other party used the strategy of luring the tiger away from the mountain, which made Munch and others lose their lives and only killed some unimportant people. However, Munch still refused to give up, so he chased after Xia Fan's oasis area.

After all, Tianmen has never been stingy with rewards. As long as Monk and others make great contributions, they will have hope to get rid of the identity of sand thieves and become a true Tianmen disciple. Even if they cannot, their descendants will have the same chance.

pity.

They met Xia Fan.

"Rest in peace."

Xia Fan flicked casually, and Monk, who had lost his value, fell to the ground and then disappeared without a sound.

According to Monk's final explanation.

There is a town a few hundred miles further east. On weekdays, Rimonk and others would go to the town for leisure. Some time ago, a mysterious messenger even sent to Tianmen.

Monk and others were instructed by the messenger this time.

"Little Fish, it's time for us to leave."

After getting rid of Munch, Xia Fan greeted Zhou Xiaoyu.

"Now?"

Zhou Xiaoyu was stunned.

"Can you still sleep now? Anyway, the town is not far from us, so it will take a little time to pass."

Xia Fan said lazily.

"……All right."

Zhou Xiaoyu yawned, then stepped forward and grabbed Xia Fan's hand tightly.

...

When Xia Fan and Zhou Xiaoyu disappeared in this oasis for about half an hour.

Two figures quietly appeared near the oasis.

"Senior Brother!!!"

When they lay on the sand dunes and noticed the scene of corpses everywhere on the edge of the oasis lake, one of the figures immediately whispered in horror.

"Junior sister, don't be nervous, I'll go and check the situation."

The figure beside him pondered for a moment.

"Senior brother! It's too dangerous!"

"Don't worry, I've sensed it, and there is no breath of living people around me."

"...Senior brother, please be careful."

"certainly."

moment.

A figure hiding behind the sand dunes suddenly sneaked into the lake.

After a careful investigation and confirming that there were only corpses nearby, the figure made a gesture to his companion in the sand dune in the distance.

After a while.

Another figure also came to the edge of the lake.

"Senior brother, have you found anything?"

"I checked these corpses and found that they all died of broken hearts, but this corpse was not."

The figure stood in front of Monk's body and said with a serious expression.

"It seems like Monk?"

Another figure gritted his teeth when he saw the corpse's face.

"It's him, but the cause of his death is a bit strange. There is no trauma in the body, and although the heart is damaged, there is no serious injury, etc......"

The figure examined Monk's body.

“There’s something wrong with his head.”

“What’s the problem.”

"The inside of his head seemed to be shattered by an inexplicable force."

"Tangled?!"

"Yes, it seems that this is the same as the power to kill other people."

"Hiss...who killed Monk and the others?"

"Did you see the fire and leaves here? It is obvious that someone had been resting here before, and Monk and the others probably happened to run into each other. Judging from the traces of the scene, Monk and the others were killed but failed to kill someone... The most important thing is that from the time of Monk and the others' death, the other party left here in a short time after killing Monk and the others, and there was no trace of leaving..."

“That is,…”

"I suspect that Monk and the others met a grandmaster."

"Master?! How could a grandmaster appear in such a place!"

"This is just my guess, otherwise we can't explain Monk's death and how the murderers disappeared without a trace."

"...Senior brother, do you think the other person will be hiding in this lake?"

"If the other party was really hidden in this lake, I'm afraid the other party would have appeared long ago."

“…What should we do next?”

"Go to Huangsha Town! Although Monk is dead, the mastermind is still there. We must collect this blood debt with our own hands!"

"……good!"

at the same time.

Xia Fan and Zhou Xiaoyu suddenly appeared in an empty street.

"Uncle! We're there?"

Zhou Xiaoyu opened his eyes in a daze and said.

"Yes, but this town is really dilapidated."

Xia Fan looked at the simple houses on both sides of the street.

"Indeed, it looks like the same as the fishing village in our hometown."

Zhou Xiaoyu looked at the low and old houses built of wood.

“Huh?”

At this time.

Xia Fan, who had accidentally sensed a circle of town, suddenly raised his eyebrows.

"Uncle? What's wrong?"

"I seem to have met an acquaintance."

Said.

Xia Fan led Zhou Xiaoyu and disappeared on the street again.

Town center.

There are only a few wide houses in the town made of stone.

"Bai Qianfan! Come out and get to die!"

A young man in white was standing in the courtyard of the house. He was holding a long sword with a cold light and staring at the room in front of him with cold eyes.

"Xie Linyuan! You are finally here."

The next moment.

The door of the house is open.

I saw a slender middle-aged man walking out slowly.
Chapter completed!
