The Daughter Of Destiny Broke Off The Engagement? I Married Her Sister Instead.
Chapter 53: The Killer Guild Moves Out
Chu Qianqiu embarked on a journey to the Wan Beast Mountain Range alone.
Meanwhile...
At the moment of complete silence...
Inside a hidden underground structure in the desolate wilderness of Moon Phoenix City...
The leader of the White Night Society was having a conversation with his subordinates.
"Recently, more and more people have been leaving our White Night Society."
"Some of them paid money to clearly distance themselves from us."
"These people later became bandit leaders, establishing themselves because they paid the withdrawal fee and swore to keep the address of the White Night Society secret, so we can ignore them."
"But there are some people who left the White Night Society without paying the fee or saying goodbye, sneaking away like that. These people are traitors, they don't give me, Bai Wuji, face. They deserve to die!"
"Bang!"
With a forceful palm, he slapped the cast iron throne beneath him.
Bai Wuji, the leader of the White Night Society, looked at the others present with a fierce gaze, intimidating them with his words.
"Leader, we have already killed most of the traitors, only a small number escaped to the Falling Star Empire's protected area."
"We have also found out that not all of those who disappeared from our White Night Society were deserters; some of them met with accidents and died."
"I have the life cards of these people as evidence."
At this moment, a masked man in a black Daoist robe stepped forward and took out several "life cards."
This was a technique he had cultivated, which allowed him to bind the life force of others to his cards, enabling him to check if they were alive and inflict pain by tearing up the cards.
Of course, binding someone's life to a card was quite complicated and sometimes required the cooperation of the person involved.
Now, all the cards in his hand were intact but gray, indicating that those who were bound had already died, meeting various accidents.
"Heishan, are you saying they all died accidentally?" Leader Bai Wuji stood up and asked.
"Yes, leader. Among them, our core member Chu Tianhe had the most gruesome death."
"According to the deduction from the life cards, his body has been dismembered and scattered in different places."
"And after a detailed investigation, I found that his last trace was left in Clear Pond Town."
"At that time, the only connection Clear Pond Town had with him was his family, the Chu family."
"So, leader, how should we handle these brothers who didn't desert?"
The man in the Daoist robe, known as "Heishan," spoke slowly, his tone calm, waiting for orders.
"Damn it!"
"Everyone in the White Night Society who is loyal to me is my brother!"
"To dare to kill my brothers is to slap me in the face, and I cannot tolerate it!"
"Immediately send someone to investigate those people who acted behind the scenes, especially the Chu family. Their patriarch must not be allowed to live!"
Bai Wuji shouted, wanting to seek justice for his brothers.
The White Night Society was a terrifying presence in Moon Phoenix City.
However, in recent years, he had suffered a serious injury in an accident, causing his strength to decline significantly.
As a result, many of his brothers had left the organization, and some even defected, which pained him greatly.
Now, in order to solidify the faith of his remaining loyal brothers, he had to take responsibility for those brothers who died unexpectedly but were loyal to the end.
Otherwise, the White Night Society would truly face its collapse.
After the members of the White Night Society took action, they immediately investigated the whereabouts of the Chu family.
When they discovered that everyone from the Chu family had left Clear Pond Town and arrived in Moon Phoenix City, they were a little disappointed.
Although Moon Phoenix City is relatively close to the White Night Society.
However, since Moon Phoenix City is under the jurisdiction of the Rising Sun Empire and is protected by the empire.
So, if they wanted to take action against the Chu family in the city, it would be like seeking death.
Moreover, the Chu family specifically moved into the city, not just temporarily staying, so they couldn't take action.
Finally, the White Night Society, who knew all of this, decided to temporarily give up on targeting the Chu family.
But then they discovered that the head of the Chu family seemed to be absent from home.
Someone saw that the head of the family had just left the city tonight, riding a black steed, galloping on the road outside the city, heading towards the direction of the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range.
After the members of the White Night Society learned about this, they planned to capture the thief first and capture this person who dared to go out alone.
...
Chu Qianqiu rode his horse and galloped on the road, feeling extremely happy.
For the first time, he had this feeling of facing the sky and having a broad mind because the road to the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range was so beautiful.
Along the way, the moonlight faintly illuminated the surrounding grassland, the stars accompanied his footsteps, and the wind sang for him. In front of him was a huge obstacle, blocking the view of the distant scenery but becoming a spectacle itself.
"So, this is the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range. Even before getting close, I can already see its overwhelming appearance."
Feeling emotional, Chu Qianqiu's speed became faster and faster.
Gradually, he arrived at a fork in the road.
Here, even at night, there were many people coming and going, mostly merchants traveling at night.
They traveled from Moon Phoenix City to other cities.
As far as Chu Qianqiu knew, this road led to several nearby cities, including the Casting City, Qingyuan City, Qian Ancient City, Lu Tao City, and Beiliang City.
Among them, Casting City and Qingyuan City were the most famous.
Casting City was the main gathering place for weapons and treasures in the Rising Sun Empire, and it was also where various forging masters lived. It was a place that some sect cultivators liked to visit.
Qingyuan City was inhabited by a large number of wealthy people, merchant families, and rich young masters. Among them, the four most famous families were in charge.
Compared to Moon Phoenix City, these two cities had their own characteristics and were more advanced.
But Chu Qianqiu currently had no plans to wander around there. He bypassed the merchants around him and took a lonely road, heading straight towards the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range.
Many people noticed him and were surprised by the actions of this man in the middle of the night, but not many people paid much attention.
In this way, after a long journey, about three and a half days passed.
Chu Qianqiu finally arrived at his destination in the night after several days, almost without resting, rushing all the way.
His horse was almost exhausted, but fortunately, he brought specially refined herbs to prevent the horse from collapsing on the spot after stopping.
...
He casually tied the horse to a tree at the foot of the mountain and let it rest.
Chu Qianqiu looked up, took a glance at the deep and tall mountain road, and then looked around at the more majestic peaks, feeling quite shocked. He gradually entered the scenery.
Just as he entered not long ago.
A group of people dressed in black, who had been observing his movements for a long time, approached this place through a hidden path.
Seeing that the target had completely entered, this group of black-clothed people followed, but they didn't choose to startle the snake immediately, instead, they approached step by step.
