Chapter 271 (1/2)
Chu Yunsheng asked Edgar to guard outside the room for the entire night that night. He wanted to have a good rest for one evening. In the past two days, he didn’t have a proper rest. So he was extremely exhausted. In this castle, only when Edgar was outside his room, was he able to fall asleep.
However, the power struggle between the higher-ups of the castle was like earthquakes in the oceans, causing tsunami-like aftermath sweeping through the entire castle.
Even in the dark night, many people still didn’t dare to sleep. A lot of people were forced to choose sides again, and those who were used to being loyal to Lei Ming were almost eliminated at night. The air inside the castle was filled with the blood smell and it seemed to get heavier and heavier as time pa.s.sed.
Everyone inside the castle knew that from today, the old man, who looked like he didn’t have many days left in this world, would be in charge of the castle. Lei Ming was completely dead. Although Luo Hengshen was still alive and got a huge reward from the fire messenger, he didn’t get to be the new castellan.
The family members of Lei Ming and Fu Hanbiao were relocated to Luo Hengshen’s place and heavily guarded by Luo Hengshen’s men in time. Although Chu Yunsheng mentioned that the fire messenger would not go after their families, there were still a lot of people seeking chances for revenge in the dark.
In terms of those people who used to have very good relations.h.i.+ps with their brothers, Luo Hengshen didn’t have enough men to help them all.
No one knew how many enemies exactly did the Lei Ming brothers have. Ambushes and a.s.sa.s.sinations happened all the time, and it didn’t seem to reduce any as time pa.s.sed.
Originally it was the 7 slaveholders trying to split the resources that the Lei Ming brothers had. But soon, some other people also started to join in the looting.
As more and more people joined in, the situation became more and more chaotic…
When Cao Zhengyi and 7 slaveholders realized that the situation was out of control, it was already too late…
They tried their best to gather as many Skywalkers as they could to control the chaos. However, no matter how many people they killed, they still could not stop the chaos.
Cao Zhengyi was not experienced in handling the chaos on this kind of scale, he was just a low-level slaveholder who suddenly became a castellan by his luck, not his ability.
Originally, he thought that as soon as he started to kill some people, it would scare those slaves, they would immediately stop running around destroying things. However, what he did seemed to have an opposite effect. He had already run out of the ideas. He had to get help from those two that were living in the palace.
No one knew what caused the slaves and even some skywalkers to lose their minds, but more and more people started to flock towards the palace as if someone was guiding them towards a specific place.
Chu Yunsheng was woken up by loud noises, he was alerted and quickly got up to open the door.
“What happened outside?” Chu Yunsheng asked hurriedly.
Edgar shook his head. He did not leave the door a single step, so he also did not know.
“Stay here, don’t go anywhere. I am going to check what’s going on!” Chu Yunsheng’s heart instantly sank. The noises of people shouting “kill” and “fight” were getting louder and louder. His first reaction was that the castle of Snowstorm was attacking the castle of Raging Fire.
Then he saw Tao Chan was running breathlessly towards him and shouted, “Grandpa, grandpa… slaves… They revolted!”
Chu Yunsheng was dazed for a second, ‘revolt? What does she mean revolt? Since when do those slaves dare to fight back aliens?’
“Where is Cao Zhengyi? ” Chu Yunsheng asked.
“Castellan is commanding the suppression at the front, those slaves wanted to rush into here!” Tao Chan’s face was extremely pale, it was caused by fears.
Chu Yunsheng went out of the main hall and walked through the square. He then saw a row of Skywalkers at the bottom of the stairs when he arrived at the edge of the square.
In front of the Skywalkers was a “wall” made of human bodies piling on top of each other, and those bodies were still on fire. Behind the “wall”, people were still pus.h.i.+ng forward or trying to climb over the wall to hit those Skywalkers. They did not seem to be scared of death at all.
“What the f.u.c.k is going on?” Chu Yunsheng ran towards Cao Zhengyi and shouted.
