Chapter 2554 A Shocking Conspiracy (3)
After exiting the spatial pa.s.sageway, before the group had time to get excited, they suddenly discovered that the place they were in was a barren land, and there were burn marks everywhere in front of them. The flowers, plants, and trees had all been destroyed, and the house they lived in was also in ruins.
Leng ruoxue"s pupils, which were emitting a cold aura, suddenly contracted. This was indeed their territory in the land of demons. However, the place in front of them was clearly in a state of violent destruction. d.a.m.n it! Who did this!
The dragon clan? The Phoenix Clan? The White Tiger race or the rime ice? The enemies she had provoked were just these few.
At the thought of this, Leng ruoxue"s anger rose from the bottom of her heart to the top of her head. Her family had been destroyed, but she could not determine who the murderer was? It was not a good feeling, and the situation in front of her made her rage burn to the peak.
Where were the beastmen? She thought of the Beastie who had stayed behind to guard the land of demons. Those cute Beastie, could they have also been killed by the enemy? Leng ruoxue suddenly felt regret. If it wasn"t for her confidence in the defenses of the land of demons, she wouldn"t have left these beasts to guard the house. Now, thinking about how she might have caused the deaths of those adorable Beastie, Leng ruoxue"s heart was filled with endless regret.
"Xue "er," The evildoer could sense Leng ruoxue"s emotions. He gently pulled her into his embrace and consoled her silently. He did not know what else to say. He did not expect that the land of demons would be ambushed on his trip to the nine nether nether prison.
Uncle long and the others also felt extremely heavy-hearted.
The leopard tribe where the old leopard was from was one of the beast tribes that stayed behind. They were familiar with the old leopard, so they did not dare to think whether the old leopard and the other beasts were still alive or hiding.
They had hoped that the old leopard and the other beasts had all hidden, but this obviously self-deceiving idea made them feel extremely uneasy.
Seeing their homes destroyed to this extent, they knew that the enemy was very powerful.
"Hahaha! You"re finally back. We didn"t wait for you in vain!" Just as Leng ruoxue and the rest were fuming with rage at the scene before them, a woman"s smug voice was suddenly heard.
A few figures appeared in front of Leng ruoxue and the others.
When Leng ruoxue saw these people, her beautiful eyes squinted as she coldly said,""So it"s you guys!"
The Dragon Emperor and the Phoenix King were the leaders of the group. The rest of the people were the elders of the Dragon, Phoenix and white Tiger race. All of them had the strength of reverent-G.o.d level. The moment Leng ruoxue and the rest saw them, the truth was clear.
"It"s US!" The Phoenix King said proudly.
"Leng ruoxue, you"re dead this time!" The Dragon Emperor roared with a face full of fury.
When the Dragon Emperor and Phoenix King saw Leng ruoxue, the hatred in their hearts was triggered. When they thought of the things Leng ruoxue had done to their two clans, the two of them wished they could skin her alive and eat her up.
This was especially so for the Phoenix King. Even though she could not confirm if Leng ruoxue was the one behind the incident in her clan, she could not help but link it to Leng ruoxue when she thought about the loss of the Phoenix Clan and her loss of control over the clan. Especially after hearing the Dragon Emperor and The White Tiger King confirm that Leng ruoxue had visited their clans, she was even more certain that Leng ruoxue was the one behind the incident in her clan!
Not only that, but she had also confirmed from Wu Cheng that there was no advisor by the name of Lian Wu. This further confirmed Leng ruoxue"s crime.
The detestable Leng ruoxue had caused many of the elders of the Phoenix Clan to run away from home and go into closed-door cultivation. Not only did she have no one to use, but she had also destroyed her many years of management in the Phoenix Clan. With such a deep hatred, wouldn"t she be unworthy of being a n.o.ble Phoenix if she didn"t take revenge?
Originally, they had colluded with Wu Cheng with the intention of capturing Leng ruoxue and the others in one fell swoop. Who knew that when they arrived at the land of demons, they could not find any traces of Leng ruoxue and the others. This fact made them extremely angry. Fortunately, Wu Cheng was proficient in array formations. After destroying the defenses of the land of demons, they wantonly destroyed the place and finally vented some of their anger.
However, the fact that they were unable to capture Leng ruoxue and the rest"s resentment made them stay behind to wait for their prey. It was also thanks to the divine weapon given to them by Wu Xuan that their aura was concealed. That was why Leng ruoxue and the rest were unable to discover them at the first moment.
Now, they had taken the initiative to show themselves.
It was also time to settle the score with Leng ruoxue!
When the Phoenix King thought of this, he became even more proud and said,""Leng ruoxue, no one can save you this time, haha! You can just wait for your death!"
After saying that, the Phoenix King laughed wildly.
Leng ruoxue frowned and replied calmly,""Are you sure?"
"Hahaha! Of course we"re sure. Leng ruoxue, we"ve already set up an inescapable net and were just waiting for you to fall into it!" The Dragon Emperor also laughed wildly. With the two of them taking the lead, the elders present also laughed.
"Are you guys daydreaming?" Uncle long couldn"t help but pour cold water on them when he saw them laughing so smugly.
"Old whale, you"re mistaken. We"re not daydreaming, you"re the one who"s struggling! However, as a kind person, I"m willing to give you a way out. As long as you surrender and hand over Leng ruoxue, we won"t kill you. How about it?" The Phoenix King said in an alluring voice. The expression on her face was as proud as she could be.
Hmph! Leng ruoxue had caused her to be abandoned by her family and friends. She would not let Leng ruoxue have an easy time either! However, she had clearly underestimated the courage of uncle long and the others, because as soon as she finished speaking, Dongfang Lin laughed and said,""Trying to drive a wedge between us? Don"t you think too highly of yourself?"
"That"s right, Who Do You Think You Are!" Uncle long and the others immediately agreed.
"Don"t be so shameless. If you don"t do as I say today, you"ll be dead!" The Phoenix King threatened. Her beautiful eyes swept across uncle long and the others. Suddenly, she saw Feng Chuan, who was hiding in the crowd and looked quite inconspicuous. Her eyes darkened, and then she shouted,""Feng Chuan, why are you here? You"re with our enemy, you traitor of the Phoenix-kind!"
When Feng Chuan heard this, he could only roll his eyes helplessly at Feng w.a.n.g. He didn"t deny the Phoenix King"s words.
Seeing this, the Phoenix King was even more furious. After seeing Feng Chuan, Leng ruoxue"s crime was confirmed. After some thought, Prince Feng turned to look at Leng ruoxue and asked fiercely,""Leng ruoxue, were you the one behind the Phoenix clan"s incident?"
"Would you believe me if I said it wasn "t?" Leng ruoxue replied calmly.
"Of course I don "t!" The Phoenix King said without thinking.
"Then why are you still asking me?" Leng ruoxue was a little speechless. She suspected that the Phoenix King had been angered to the point of losing her mind. Actually, the moment she saw the Phoenix King, she had already guessed that her crime had most likely been exposed. Hence, she naturally did not want to deny anything. However, she did not expect that the Phoenix King would still ask her so innocently if she was the one behind the Phoenix clan"s incident! What was the difference?
The Phoenix Prince was rendered speechless by Leng ruoxue"s words. She also felt that she had asked a silly question, and Leng ruoxue had obviously tacitly agreed to it. However, when she saw Leng ruoxue"s calm expression, she felt that it was an eyesore no matter how she looked at it.
What an annoying woman! Right now, the level of detest she had for Leng ruoxue had already surpa.s.sed Wu Yan "s. Their purpose for coming to the land of demons this time was naturally to capture Leng ruoxue and the rest in one fell swoop. They could not allow this woman to continue to run wild in the G.o.d World. Otherwise, their three clans would be in trouble sooner or later.
Just as the Phoenix King was deciding on Leng ruoxue"s death sentence, Leng ruoxue"s beautiful eyes swept across the Phoenix King and the Dragon Emperor. She then said with a regretful expression,""Why don"t I see The White Tiger? Aren"t you two on the same side?"
The few elders of The White Tiger race were completely ignored by her.
"Hmph! Of course we"re on the same side!" The Dragon Emperor said angrily.
"Oh! I remember now, The White Tiger King once swore not to have any thoughts of harming me. Why, has he been punished by the heavens?" Leng ruoxue laughed as she teased, but in her heart, she wanted nothing more than to tear The White Tiger King into pieces!
"d.a.m.n it!" The White Tiger King must have sold her out. Other than The White Tiger race, she had always thought that her movements in the dragon and phoenix races were extremely secretive, and she would never give herself away. However, looking at the Dragon Emperor"s eyes, which were filled with ferocity, as if he had killed his father, what else could she not understand?
In reality, Leng ruoxue"s guess was pretty close to the mark. Thinking back to their operation in The White Tiger race, the Dragon Emperor had received news of it and raised his guard. However, he never thought that someone would still succeed. And after the Dragon race suffered losses, the first person he thought of was Leng ruoxue. Because other than her, no one else would dare to do such a thing.
After that, he specially sent someone to ask The White Tiger King about the details of the incident. When the two sides confronted each other, Leng ruoxue naturally could not escape the charge. However, neither of the two clans warned the Phoenix Clan, so the Phoenix Clan naturally suffered.
After the incident, the Phoenix King, who had learned of the situation, was rather resentful towards the Dragon Emperor and The White Tiger King for being so immoral. However, the two of them had shamelessly told her that they had never expected Leng ruoxue to go to the Phoenix Clan. The matters in their own clan were already enough to cause them a headache, so how could they have the time to care about others?
More importantly, the relations.h.i.+p between the three clans was no longer as harmonious as before. When one family was in trouble, they naturally didn"t want the other families to stand on the side and watch the show. If they were to be in trouble, they would be in trouble together!
With this thought in mind, the three clans finally became gra.s.shoppers on the vine. However, the Phoenix Clan had suffered more losses than the other two clans, so the Phoenix King had gone to settle the score with the mist ripple on impulse ...
