Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7123

Chapter 7034: The Killing Intent Returns

After communicating with the young Emperor, Jiu Siheng and the others ended the communication.

No sooner had it ended than his communication tower rang again.

Jiu Siheng glanced down and answered without hesitation.

The handsome figure of Jiu Ding, with his nine-colored hair, immediately appeared on the communication tower in his palm .

“Third Brother, something’s happened, but we didn’t see who made the move,” Jiu Ding said gravely the moment the communication connected.

Before the other could finish, Jiu Siheng said calmly, “No need to say more. Our Emperor already knows the situation. The more important thing now is to proceed with the next step of the plan.” Jiu Ding

wasn’t surprised, but still frowned slightly. “What do we need to do next?”

“Don’t panic. Let’s meet up. Where are you now?” Jiu Siheng asked, looking up.

“I’m currently in the central area of the old capital,” Jiu Ding said solemnly.

After speaking, the two ended the communication.

A moment later, the group met near the school where the Earth Demon Blood Vine had appeared.

This area was the epicenter of the recent riot, with numerous dark-style buildings destroyed, leaving only ruins everywhere.

For the Divine Treasure Clan, experiencing the devastation wrought by a Celestial Venerable-level Dao Plant was akin to surviving a battle.

The entire old capital suffered casualties and widespread destruction; it was a truly horrific sight.

Had it not been for Jiang Feiling’s avatar intervening in time to stem the tide, the losses might have been far greater—the entire Divine Treasure Clan in the old capital would have been wiped out…

Faced with such a treacherous scheme, if Li Tianming hadn’t had a trump card to counter it, he would likely have perished in the old capital along with the Divine Treasure Clan.

With all evidence and witnesses destroyed, and the young Emperor Venerable framing the Divine Dao Alliance, Li Tianming would be unable to clear his name.

Therefore, the initial rivalry and covert competition between the two had long since escalated into a fierce confrontation, with every step a potential killing blow.

After they met, Jiuding asked directly, “Third Brother, what are the Emperor’s next instructions?”

Jiu Siheng stepped forward and whispered in his ear, “There will be another scene later. Our task is to continue observing…find the person who made the move, and investigate their background.”

“I understand. This time, we must find out who was able to dispose of so many Dao plants so quietly.” Jiuding nodded seriously.

At this moment, Jiu Yangui smiled and said, “Don’t be too nervous. We’re only responsible for observation; we don’t need to fight. However, we are people the Emperor trusts, so only we can do this. Those foreign Heavenly Venerables are not qualified to know about this.” Jiuding

‘s slightly solemn expression relaxed a little. He smiled slightly and said, “Third Sister-in-law is right. It’s best to protect ourselves first.”

Finally, Jiu Siheng whispered a few more words to the two of them before they parted ways.

If you look closely, you can see that Jiuding and the others actually occupied a triangular position, surrounding an area…

…

The dead are gone, the living remain.

In the aftermath of the disaster, the Shenzang tribe, having lost many of their kin, had no time to grieve; they immediately began rebuilding their homes.

The Shenzang’s battle to protect their people was still ongoing, though not a direct confrontation like in the Great Shenzang Galaxy, but equally dangerous for them.

What is unseen is most terrifying; no one knew how the crisis would strike again.

Therefore, an unspeakable atmosphere permeated the entire old capital after this event.

At this time, the Shenzang people gathered like industrious worker ants, most of them helping to rebuild in the areas most severely damaged.

Currently, it seemed the people had temporarily suppressed their grief and were carrying out post-disaster reconstruction in an orderly manner.

However, just when everything seemed normal, and everyone relaxed their guard…

Boom—!!

A huge hole seemed to suddenly appear in the earth, causing a massive collapse!

Everything on the ground, such as half-reconstructed buildings and Shenzang people who hadn’t reacted in time, fell straight down!

“Ahhh!!”

“What happened?!”

“Why did the earth collapse?”

Tens of thousands of Shenzang tribe members affected by the sudden turn of events were terrified and screamed in panic.

However, their shock was short-lived, and some quickly reacted.

“Quick, get up!” someone shouted.

Everyone activated their Shenzang power, ascending with their Cosmic God bodies, preparing to escape the massive void below.

But—

before they were completely away from the void, another change occurred!

Whoosh!

As everyone moved away from the void, countless blood-red vines, like red threads, sprouted from the ground!

They appeared slender because of their length; in reality, each blood vine was as thick as an average person’s thigh in the Guanzizai Realm!

Within a short time, all the Shenzang tribe members in the void were entangled by the blood vines, and the barbs on the vines pierced deeply into their bodies!

“Ahhh!! What is this thing?!”

The terrified people, before they could even escape, were already bound by the blood vines!

The tightening blood vines and the sharp thorns piercing their bodies and draining their life force caused them immense pain…

“Weren’t all the Celestial Venerable-level Dao Plants destroyed? Why are they reappearing?” the Divine Treasure Clan member, held high, cried out in despair.

Someone struggled in terror, slashing at the blood vines with their Dao Treasure Greatsword, but the sword was deflected, unable to even scratch the outer skin!

“This thing is too high-level, completely useless!” the person cried out in despair, their face ashen.

“Someone save us!”

“Who is behind this? Damn it!!”

In the instant everything happened, the scene became utterly desolate. Many cried for help, but received no response.

Faced with such an attack, these people were powerless to resist; the difference in strength was too great!

Therefore, all their attempts at self-rescue were almost entirely futile!

At this moment, Wu Xuan, who was investigating the source of the Dao Plant disaster, passed by.

He noticed the commotion and rushed to the scene of the incident, his expression grave.

When the Shenzang clan saw Wu Xuan, it was as if they had seen a savior, and the despair in their eyes was somewhat lessened.

“It’s the Vice Governor! Vice Governor, please save us!” the crowd cried out, tears welling in their eyes.

“It hurts so much… Help…” a child weakly cried out.

Seeing this, Wu Xuan was enraged and coldly said, “Damn it! Whoever you are, don’t even think about harming my Shenzang people!”

He immediately charged towards the ‘Earth Demon Blood Vine,’ preparing to rescue the trapped Shenzang people.

However, before Wu Xuan had even fully entered its range, a sudden change occurred!
