Chapter 1076: Trapped in Yama Hall (One)
In the blink of an eye, seven days had passed since the Bloodcloud clan had been wiped out in Hellfire City. During those seven days, news regarding the event swept through Karl Empire like a storm. Since the person who had wiped them out in less than ten minutes was a member of the Bi family, that news became the biggest a drawing point. Afterward, various rumors appeared regarding the descendent of the Bi family as well as the destruction of the Bi family fifty years ago. They crazily spread across the Karl Empire.
The imperial family of the Karl Empire did not respond in regards to how the Bloodcloud family was wiped out. Ever since their Imperial Protector Mo Jian had come back several days ago, they did nothing, indicating that they did not wish to interfere with Bi Dao’s matters. After all, Bi Dao was also a member of the empire, and he was a Saint King. He was an existence that the imperial family wished to pull over, so why would they take offense over the death of a Saint Ruler?
During those seven days, Bi Dao stood unmoving in the ruins of the Bloodcloud clan. He did not even take a single step from that place. The Heaven-quaking Sword remained stabbed into the ground beside him. Its luster was gone and it seemed extremely ordinary, but the pressure it possesses still existed. It slowly pervaded the surroundings, no longer making them seem so ordinary.
A large crowd of people remained in the surroundings of the ruins, watching on from afar. During those few days, people had come and left. There were even a great group of people who had come from several thousand kilometers away just to see the awe of a Saint King.
Very soon, darkness descended on the earth once more. The bustling city gradually began to quieten down, and the people in the surroundings all slowly dispersed. Only Bi Dao remained where he was, disregarding any fatigue.
Bi Dao could not help but think of everything that had once happened right now. Countless faces of the Bi family flashed through his head one by one, and his cold gaze gained some gentleness.
“So many years have passed. I wonder how Xiangtian is right now. He’s the only descendent left of my Bi family. I hope he can survive…”
“Sister, once I take revenge for the destruction of the clan, I’ll go hunt down the people who murdered you. Even if I have to search to the ends of the earth, I will find them and use their blood to hold a ceremony to remember you. Sister, rest well. Your brother won’t let you die for nothing.” Bi Dao was filled with deep sorrow. When the Bi family had been wiped out all those years ago, only he and his sister survived. Now that Bi Yuntian was dead, all that was left in the family was him.
Suddenly, loneliness began to pour out of Bi Dao’s heart. He felt so lonely at the moment, as if he was the only one left from the glorious Bi family all those years ago.
He had always remained in the Soul-claiming Mountains in recent years, having only left a few days ago. He had not learned about the major events occurring across the Tian Yuan Continent. He still had no idea that his sister had been revived by Jian Chen, while his nephew was no longer a mere Saint Ruler, now a great Saint King.
Suddenly, a cold breeze gently blew past him. The surrounding sounds seemed to vanish in that instant, and the city seemed to become a haunted place of deathly silence.
Bi Dao’s head immediately cleaned up, and he dismissed his random thoughts. He slowly raised his head and looked around emotionlessly. Ten figures had appeared in the surroundings silently at some time. They seemed to have fused with the darkness; although they stood there out in the open, it was extremely easy for people to miss them, making it very difficult to sense them.
The ten figures stood there silently like that. No one said anything, nor did any presences leak out, causing the atmosphere to become rather odd.
Burning killing intent immediately appeared in Bi Dao’s eyes when he looked at the ten people surrounding him. He could clearly remember that when the Bi family was devastated several dozen years ago, it was done by a group of people in similar attire.
“You’ve finally come. I’ve waited here for you for several days already.” Bi Dao’s voice was extremely icy as killing intent radiated from him without restraint. He slowly drew the Heaven-quaking sword from the ground, adding a vast pressure to his killing intent.
The ten people said nothing, but some greed appeared in their cold gazes once they all laid their eyes on the sword in Bi Dao’s hand.
“Speak, who are you? What organization do you belong to?” Bi Dao continued after not hearing the people respond.
The ten people stood there silently, as if they were a part of the darkness. No one replied to Bi Dao’s questions.
“No wonder we couldn’t find any beast fur when we wiped out the Bi family back then, so it’s actually been taken away when a survivor of the family fled.” At this moment, a husky voice rang out from nowhere. It was impossible to discern its origins.
One of Bi Dao’s eyes began to violently flicker. He stared fixedly at the space before him.
A black figure gradually appeared in the empty darkness. It seemed so odd.
