Chapter 1869: Met the Brotherhood Alliance

“Ah… Why are you still thinking about that… I know… Really… Wait. I smell blood.” Jun Yinglian sensed something, so she rushed out. The lady left, maybe because of something she sensed, or because of Ye Xiao’s nagging.

Ye Xiao naturally followed her out.

They followed the smell, and their spiritual minds went before them. In the forest, there was a mess.

Apparently, somebody had fought there. Broken body parts were everywhere. Blood ran into a river all over the place.

“It is a fight between martial artists.” Ye Xiao knew what had happened.

“Why?” Jun Yinglian said, “This is the North Sky, and this place is close to the central area. There is a city not far from here. It could be some officials, couldn’t it?”

“Lian Lian, you didn’t live in the Land of Han-Yang like I did. You don’t know enough about kings! If people of the North Sky government did this, they wouldn’t leave the bodies here like this.”

Ye Xiao said, “Besides… They wouldn’t need to cover this up. Look at the bodies. They were from two different forces. At last, I know one of the clothes they wore. It belongs to the Brotherhood Alliance. I have no idea who the other side is, but… I think it could be the Great Ye Army.”

“One more thing… After this fight, they left in a hurry… They didn’t even have time to check the bodies… They left fast because they didn’t want to get caught by the North Sky government…”

Ye Xiao said, “I think these are enough. Don’t you?”

“You said the Brotherhood Alliance was a great force in the Limitless Ocean. They should be as powerful as the House of Chaotic Storms and the Hall of Returning Nature. The Great Ye Army is now. If these two forces had a fight, it should be a big event. Besides, they didn’t need to fight here in the North Sky. We are quite far away from the Limitless Ocean, aren’t we?” Jun Yinglian was confused.

“The Great Ye Army is playing tough this time. Are they going to call for the Breaking Heaven operation? Even this man died here! This is important!” Ye Xiao said.

Jun Yinglian was surprised. “Do you know some of these men?”

Ye Xiao shook his head and said, “Not really. I have seen him before…” Ye Xiao stared at a dead body and said, “Because this man died, I have the idea that the Great Ye Army did this.”

He walked to a dead body and said, “This man is the tenth leader of the Brotherhood Alliance, Wild Leopard, Peng Zhuiyun. When the Brotherhood Alliance people were besieged by the Great Ye Army in the city, this man faced all the Great Ye Army people alone. He was a hero. I wanted to make friends with him, but now it is too late…”

Jun Yinglian looked at Peng Zhuiyun’s body and shook her head. “A man dies, his power goes off. This man must be at the Immortality Stage. Why do you care about his death so much?”

Ye Xiao smiled and said, “Lian Lian, you met a good master, so you improved really fast. However, it is difficult for ordinary cultivators to improve. Reaching the Immortality Stage means reaching the top of the world. Peng Zhuiyun was at the top of the Immortality Stage, and he had traveled the world for a long time. If he wasn’t great, he wouldn’t dare to face the Great Ye Army people on his own. I didn’t have the vision to see his real power. I thought the leaders of the Brotherhood Alliance were at about the same level as the seven clan masters of the seven clans. I was wrong!

“Look at this man now. I finally realize how powerful the leaders of the Brotherhood Alliance are. Peng Zhuiyun was the weakest. The other leaders must be beyond the Undead Stage. They are such an old organization, and they have been hiding deep! I just don’t understand why Peng Zhuiyun would die here like this.”

Ye Xiao frowned and said, “No matter who wants to kill the Wild Leopard, they have to pay a big price. Peng Zhuiyun’s private guards must be powerful too. They must have died with him… Perhaps, one of the Seven Golden Lotuses did this!”

Ye Xiao thought for a while. It was true. Only some of the great cultivators and royal cultivators could kill the Wild Leopard without getting hurt.

Even Chihuo or Lvshui couldn’t kill Peng Zhuiyun so easily. It must be done by somebody better than Chihuo and Lvshui.

Peng Zhuiyun had a special technique that allowed him to escape from any extreme situation.

Who could kill him like this? He didn’t even have a chance to flee.

“I admired this man. Let’s bury him, and wish him peace.” Ye Xiao reached out one hand and hit the floor. It dug a pit. He put all those dead bodies into the pit and buried them.

When he moved Peng Zhuiyun’s body, he hesitated.

“His body… I should send it back to the Brotherhood Alliance.” Ye Xiao sighed. “The code of brotherhood of the Brotherhood Alliance is impressive. The Wild Leopard had been heroic in his life. I should let his brothers see his body for the last time.”

Ye Xiao used the special wood in the Wood s.p.a.ce to make a coffin. He put Peng Zhuiyun’s body into the coffin, and then put it into a s.p.a.ce ring.

It was done. The two of them went back on the road. They planned to have a rest in the city near this place, and collect some information at the same time. However, Ye Xiao realized that the situation in the martial world was much worse than he had thought. He decided to return to the Monarch’s Hall as soon as possible. They went over the city and kept moving forward fast.

After three thousand miles, they saw the clouds stirring in the sky. They felt some strong killing power spreading.

Ye Xiao dashed and moved up to the sky.

As he could see, three people were moving over like lightning. The killing intent felt like something solid.
