Chapter 772 (Annihilating the Voidless Empire)
Just as Ma Zhi finished speaking, Yun Ting on the bed slowly opened her eyes.
Yun Ting, who had just opened her eyes, looked around with a hint of confusion. Suddenly, her eyes reddened.
"Master!" Yun Ting choked up and immediately threw himself into the arms of her master, Fang Meiying, sobbing uncontrollably.
"Don't cry, Yun Ting. Whatever happened, I will handle it as your master." Fang Meiying gently stroked Yun Ting's back, consoling her softly.
She thought that Yun Ting had been severely frightened.
Lan Gu's expression grew solemn as he looked at Yun Ting. He spoke slowly, "Yun Ting, tell us what happened. Why are you like this? Where is Mu Ran? And where is Tai Hongguang?"
Yun Ting, still teary-eyed, raised her head from her master's embrace and choked out, "Master, Senior Brother... Senior Brother was... he was killed, and Senior Sister Mu Ran was captured."
Upon hearing Yun Ting's words, the three of them grew grim. They hadn't expected that someone would dare to provoke the authority of the Supreme Spirit Sect. It was a bold move indeed!
Not only did they kill Tai Hongguang, but they also captured one of the chosen ones of Heaven. Unforgivable!
"Who did this? Who dares to do such a thing?" Ma Zhi's angry voice demanded answers. For how many years, the Supreme Spirit Sect had always been a symbol of authority. They couldn't believe someone would trample on that authority like this! Did they want to die?
"It's... it's a place called the Voidless Empire..." Yun Ting's voice trembled as she thought of the four guards in white armour. The fear he had experienced was still present in her heart, something that would stay with her for the rest of her life.
"The Voidless Empire?" Lan Gu expressed confusion. It seemed that this place had never been mentioned within the scope of Northern Chill.
Yun Ting nodded, "Yes, the Voidless Empire occupied the former Valoris and transformed it into a magnificent city. Divine Steppes originally intended to reclaim it. Senior Sister Mu Ran has a kind heart, so she went to the Voidless Empire alone. Unfortunately, the odds were against her."
"My Senior Brother and I heard about it and rushed to the Voidless Empire. We were truly shocked by what we saw. However, as we entered, we encountered four guards."
Fang Meiying asked curiously, "Four guards? What kind of guards?"
"They were the guards at the city gates, dressed in white armour." Yun Ting recalled the scene, and her gaze revealed her lingering fear.
Ma Zhi asked, "Could they fly?"
"Yes."
"That's impossible. How could guards of an empire fly?" Ma Zhi exclaimed in disbelief, his face showing astonishment.
Lan Gu also showed a hint of surprise and listened silently.
Yun Ting quickly explained, "Elder Ma, I'm not lying to you. At that time, Senior Brother and I were also curious. After all, flying is a skill that only a Ninth-Rank Master can possess. Senior Brother wasn't afraid, so he attacked them." Yun Ting's lips trembled as she recounted the scene, resembling a startled rabbit.
"Then what happened?" Lan Gu asked solemnly.
"Then... Senior Brother wounded one of them in the abdomen with his sword energy, but... it healed by itself..." Yun Ting said with a trembling voice, her tone revealing her fear.
This statement shocked the three of them. They had never heard of such healing before; it defied logic!
Yun Ting continued, "One of them was incredibly fast. I didn't even sense his presence, and he swiftly beheaded Senior Brother with a single strike."
An instant kill!
The fact that they could instantly kill a Ninth-Rank Master was simply impossible!
Even Lan Gu's expression changed. A guard from an empire's city gate could easily kill a Ninth-Rank Master? Unbelievable!
"How did you manage to escape?" Ma Zhi asked in confusion.
Crying, Yun Ting said, "I don't know either. I realised I wasn't their match and turned to escape. They didn't chase after me."
Fang Meiying let out a sigh of relief and said softly, "Alright, rest for now. Leave the rest to us."
"Master... that place is very sinister..." Yun Ting grabbed Fang Meiying's hand and said in a hushed tone.
Fang Meiying nodded and followed Ma Zhi and Lan Gu out of the room.
The three of them stood outside, with Lan Gu standing with his hands behind his back, gazing at the vast land of Northern Liang.
"What are your thoughts?" Lan Gu asked in a calm tone.
Ma Zhi arched his hand and said, "Master, I think Yun Ting's words are true, but those four guards might not be genuine guards!"
"What do you mean?" Lan Gu inquired mildly.
"I suspect that those four guards must have been powerful experts in disguise, creating a facade of strength," Ma Zhi said in a deep voice, a deduction that indeed had merit.
"Master, Ma Zhi's conjecture is not unreasonable. The actions they took were meant to intimidate us and make us cautious," Fang Meiying softly added from the side.
After listening, Lan Gu let out a deep breath and said, "Our Supreme Spirit Sect is a major sect of Northern Chill! Today, our disciples were killed, and even our chosen one was captured. If this news spreads, our Supreme Spirit Sect's reputation will be shattered!"
"It seems that our Supreme Spirit Sect hasn't displayed its true strength for too long. We've let the world forget our prestige!"
As Lan Gu's words fell, a majestic aura immediately spread.
Fang Meiying and Ma Zhi respectfully exclaimed, "Sect Master, we are willing to take action! Let the enemy pay a painful price and uphold the reputation of our Supreme Spirit Sect!"
"Good! Our Supreme Spirit Sect has a million disciples. I command the two of you to lead a hundred thousand disciples each and show the world the consequences of provoking our Supreme Spirit Sect!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
Fang Meiying and Ma Zhi both accepted the orders and quickly went to make arrangements.
Lan Gu returned to the mountaintop, gazing at the horizon with a slightly furrowed brow.
On the national road of the Divine Steppes, a hundred thousand troops were advancing towards the Voidless Empire.
At the forefront of the formation, Feng Yun sat atop a white warhorse. The horse's body was clad in silver armour, presenting an impressive sight.
Paired with Feng Yun's silver armour, he appeared poised and impressive.
Behind Feng Yun were Xia Yu and Ding Wenfu.
Ding Wenfu had come to assist Feng Yun; after all, his father wasn't at ease, so sending someone along eased his worries.
As for Xia Yu, he was a former member of the Valoris royal family. His participation was just an excuse. Attacking openly and transparently required a reason, after all.
At this moment, Feng Yun checked the countdown timer for his summoning. He was already growing excited. He wondered what kind of commander he would summon, or perhaps a stunning beauty. The thought made him slightly exhilarated.
He hoped to summon a stunning beauty who could both fight and warm his bed—a perfect arrangement!
Lost in his thoughts, Feng Yun unconsciously started swaying to a rhythm, showing his excitement.
Seeing the Fourth Prince so cheerful behind, Ding Wenfu and Xia Yu also felt joy and confidence. They were also relieved, as they feared they might encounter an incompetent individual.
As they headed north, large snowflakes began to fall from the sky, and the temperature dropped significantly. The speed of the hundred thousand troops also slowed down.
After all, they needed to carry supplies with them. Cold-resistant clothing was a must. Feng Yun had prepared these things in advance; otherwise, they would have to halt their progress, consuming a significant amount of resources.
On the other side, the Supreme Spirit Sect was also getting ready. Their two hundred thousand disciples were becoming increasingly eager.
