Lord Black Fiend’s rage swept across heaven and earth.
Many people heard his furious roar.
Those still waiting on the square for the final assessment results looked at each other in confusion. Although some tension showed on their faces, most wore smiles.
Those were gloating smiles.
Not only had they heard Lord Black Fiend’s roar, they had also heard what he said.
He wanted Chu Feng’s family destroyed and his lineage ended!!!
This clearly meant Chu Feng had likely done something to enrage Lord Black Fiend.
In truth, as people of the Nine Souls Heavenly River, none of them wanted to see a junior like Chu Feng rise in the Holy Light Heavenly River.
Previously, Lord Black Fiend had always protected Chu Feng, so they dared not target him.
But now things were different. From what Lord Black Fiend said, Chu Feng had already angered him.
If Lord Black Fiend decided to deal with Chu Feng, Chu Feng would definitely not leave alive. That was exactly what they had hoped for.
“Family Head, that voice sounds like Lord Black Fiend’s.”
The people of the Gongsun family all looked toward their family head. Gloating smiles hung on every face.
“This old man is not deaf. I heard it clearly.”
The Gongsun family head raised the corners of his mouth. His face was also full of schadenfreude.
Today, Chu Feng had made the Gongsun family lose all face. He had long hated Chu Feng to the bone.
But if Chu Feng could die, it would at least vent some of his hatred.
Swish…
Just as everyone was discussing heatedly, a figure suddenly descended from the sky. It was none other than Lord Black Fiend.
By now, Lord Black Fiend had adjusted his emotions somewhat, but his face remained extremely gloomy. So gloomy that everyone present did not dare speak.
“Lord Black Fiend, we just heard what you said.”
“What exactly did that brat Chu Feng do to make you so angry?”
“Tell us. We will definitely not let Chu Feng get away with it.”
The Gongsun family head was the first to speak up and ask.
Leaving aside his status and qualifications, he genuinely wanted to know what Chu Feng had done.
“This old man misjudged him. I wrongly trusted that Chu Feng.”
“I clearly told Chu Feng and little friend Yuntian that the final assessment should value harmony. No mutual harm was allowed.”
“But who would have thought that Chu Feng would…”
At this point, Lord Black Fiend stopped speaking. He looked at the Gongsun family head with a hint of guilt in his eyes.
That look made not only the Gongsun family, but everyone present realise something was wrong.
“L… Lord.”
“What… what did Chu Feng do?”
“Is… is Yuntian… still… still alright?”
The Gongsun family head was so nervous that his words stuttered.
“Gongsun family head, I regret to inform you that little friend Yuntian has already been killed by Chu Feng. Not even a complete corpse was left behind.”
Lord Black Fiend said.
“Ah!!!”
Upon hearing this, the Gongsun family head felt his limbs go weak and his head spin.
His body tilted backward. If the Gongsun family members had not quickly supported him, he would have collapsed to the ground.
The Gongsun family head had suffered a massive shock.
The reason was simple. Gongsun Yuntian was the future hope of the Gongsun family.
He had been counting on Gongsun Yuntian to elevate the Gongsun family to greater heights.
But now Gongsun Yuntian was dead.
“Lord Black Fiend, are… are you joking?”
“I placed a protective formation on Yuntian. If something truly happened to him, I would have sensed it immediately.”
After calming down a little, the Gongsun family head asked again.
“Gongsun family head, that Chu Feng’s methods are far beyond what you imagine.”
“He even escaped from this old man’s grasp. Do you think the protective formation you left could stop him?”
Lord Black Fiend replied.
Hearing this, the Gongsun family head stretched out a trembling hand and reached into his cosmos sack. Carefully, he took out a wooden box formed from boundary power.
When the boundary wooden box opened, a row of beads lay inside.
Each bead had a person’s name written on it. But the foremost bead had no name visible, because that bead had completely shattered, and the damage was extremely severe.
“Heavens, why… why do you treat my Gongsun family like this?”
Seeing the shattered bead, the Gongsun family head let out a wailing roar. Then his eyes rolled back, and he fainted.
“Chu Feng, my Gongsun family will never share the same sky with you!!!”
The next moment, every member of the Gongsun family present let out furious roars.
They all knew that the shattered bead was Gongsun Yuntian’s life bead.
Only when Gongsun Yuntian died would the life bead shatter.
“Lord, did Chu Feng really escape?”
The Gongsun family members asked one after another.
They knew Lord Black Fiend’s abilities well.
He was a renowned figure throughout the entire Nine Souls Heavenly River.
If Chu Feng had truly escaped from him, then Chu Feng was indeed extraordinary.
“It was this old man’s incompetence that allowed Chu Feng to escape.”
“But rest assured. Since Chu Feng dared to cause trouble in this old man’s territory, this matter is no longer just your Gongsun family’s concern. This old man will absolutely not let Chu Feng go.”
“Everyone here can bear witness. Whoever captures Chu Feng alive will receive a heavy reward from this old man!!!”
Lord Black Fiend spoke to the Gongsun family in a tone of guarantee.
Although they received this assurance from Lord Black Fiend and felt some comfort, Gongsun Yuntian was too important to them. Their faces still showed dejection.
After that, Lord Black Fiend announced that the marriage recruitment event was over.
People could understand this. After such an incident, the event could not continue.
So the various groups began returning to their respective places.
But they did not know that the one who truly killed Gongsun Yuntian was not Chu Feng, but Lord Black Fiend himself.
Perhaps because their hatred for Chu Feng was so intense, almost no one doubted Lord Black Fiend’s framing. Instead, they believed it completely.
It is worth mentioning that the Gongsun family also wanted to capture Xiao Yu and Xia Yan.
On the surface, those two had no real connection to Chu Feng. They had only temporarily allied with him. But the Gongsun family did not want to let any opportunity slip.
Unfortunately, let alone them, even Lord Black Fiend could not find Xiao Yu and Xia Yan. Those two had left long ago.
Unable to find Xiao Yu and Xia Yan, the Gongsun family could only return home first.
They needed to announce Gongsun Yuntian’s death, issue a bounty, mobilise the entire Gongsun family, and even offer rewards to get others to hunt Chu Feng.
In short, they would spare no effort or cost to eliminate Chu Feng and avenge Gongsun Yuntian.
After a journey, the Gongsun family finally returned to the world they ruled.
But as soon as their large group stepped out of the teleportation array, a figure blocked their path.
When they looked closely, the Gongsun family members could hardly believe their eyes.
The person blocking them was someone they all recognised.
It was precisely Xiao Yu, the one they had searched for earlier but failed to find!!!
