Chapter 2378: Senior, He Went to the Southern Realm Patrol Palace!

"Investigate! Even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, we must find them!"

Yuan Hui, the master of the Southern Realm Patrol Palace, was furious beyond measure.

Three months had passed, and over a dozen patrol palaces in the Southern Realm had been destroyed.

Yet they had not found a single clue.

No matter how hard Yuan Hui thought, he could not understand how a force capable of destroying over a dozen patrol palaces in three months could leave no trace at all.

Those dozen patrol palaces had vanished as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth.

Over a thousand experts of the Divine Race had died!

And these were all great experts at the mid to late stage of the Eight Patterns!

Such a loss had not occurred in the Divine Race for millions of years.

This incident had blown up too big.

"But, my lord, this matter... there's no place to start investigating! Not only were all the people in the destroyed patrol palaces killed, but all the valuable information within them was also erased," a subordinate said gloomily.

Yuan Hui's face was so dark it seemed ready to drip water. He said coldly, "Didn't this matter start from the Tiannan Region? Start the investigation from the Tiannan Region! Go through every sect one by one and ask. If they won't talk, kill them! If that doesn't work, annihilate them! Annihilate them sect by sect! After all, these ants breed like crazy and can never be killed off. I want to see if they fear death!"

"Yes!"

"Also, send word of this to the clan and ask Miluo the Celestial Master to perform a divination! I have a feeling this matter is not quite normal!"

"Yes!"

Soon, a bloody suppression swept through the Tiannan Region.

The Divine Race investigated the ins and outs of the Patrol Palace incident in an extremely brutal manner.

Several sects were annihilated because they could not provide answers!

For a time, everyone felt endangered.

Of course, even more terrified was naturally the Ziwei Sect.

The Ziwei Sect's status in the Tiannan Region was not high, so it would not be their turn for a while.

But this time, the Southern Realm Patrol Palace had dispatched a large number of personnel.

It was only a matter of time before they reached the Ziwei Sect.

Inside the Ziwei Sect, complaints were rife.

"That guy only knows how to enjoy killing himself, but he puts us in danger!"

"Too irresponsible! This guy has poked a hole in the sky, and we have to bear the consequences!"

"Sect Master, we should report that kid! As long as we hand him over, this matter should blow over! Otherwise, we will face total annihilation!"

...

In the main hall of the Ziwei Sect, everyone was complaining about Ye Yuan.

Regarding Ye Yuan's actions of destroying the patrol palaces, they had felt exhilarated before.

But now, facing the bloody revenge of the Divine Race, they could no longer feel exhilarated.

Hearing these words, Mo Qingshan said grimly, "Report? Have you lost your mind? Are you going to tell the Divine Race that the divine envoy died in our Ziwei Sect? Or are you going to tell the divine envoy that a disciple of our Ziwei Sect took that kid around destroying patrol palaces?"

The elder who had spoken earlier choked on his words, his face full of embarrassment.

He had spoken without thinking, blurting it out.

Now, hearing Mo Qingshan's words, he realized that reporting was simply not an option!

If they kept silent, the Ziwei Sect might still survive.

If they spoke, they would surely die!

Just as everyone was at a loss, a faint voice suddenly rang out in the hall.

"Uncles and aunts, I think... I might be able to guess why that senior did what he did."

Everyone looked over and saw Mo Xiaocao sitting in the corner.

Mo Xiaocao was also one of the Ziwei Sect's geniuses, with extremely high cultivation talent.

Thus, she was qualified to sit in this hall.

Mo Qingshan looked at his daughter with some surprise. He knew his daughter was exceptionally intelligent and might have some insightful opinion this time.

"Xiaocao, tell us what you think!" Mo Qingshan said.

Mo Xiaocao nodded slightly and said, "First of all, that senior destroying so many patrol palaces might be to save our Ziwei Sect! Everyone, don't get excited; let Xiaocao speak slowly. If he hadn't destroyed the Tiannan Patrol Palace, our Ziwei Sect would definitely have been annihilated. But if he only destroyed the Tiannan Patrol Palace, it would still not be difficult to trace it back to the Ziwei Sect! However, if he destroys over a dozen patrol palaces in succession and leaves no trace, it becomes almost impossible to find our Ziwei Sect."

Initially, upon hearing the notion of saving the Ziwei Sect, everyone wanted to refute it.

But after listening to Mo Xiaocao's analysis, they thought it over and realized it was indeed the case.

"But why would he go this far for our Ziwei Sect?" someone questioned.

A gleam of brilliance flashed in Mo Xiaocao's eyes, and she said, "Of course, it's because of Qin Chao! I could tell that senior greatly appreciated Qin Chao! Of course, originally he didn't intend to implicate our Ziwei Sect; otherwise, he wouldn't have said to tie him up and take him to the patrol palace."

The others exchanged glances, and suddenly expressions of shame appeared on their faces.

Mo Xiaocao's analysis made a lot of sense.

He was thinking of how to save them, yet they were here complaining about him and reporting him.

Mo Xiaocao continued, "Of course, that senior's intention probably goes beyond that!"

Mo Qingshan's eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "What else does it mean?"

Mo Xiaocao said, "There's no turning back once the arrow is shot! Since this matter has begun, it cannot end well! Therefore, this senior probably deliberately made a big deal out of it, making it known to everyone! He wants to tell us that the Divine Race is not invincible. He wants to awaken everyone's fighting spirit, to unite and fight against the Divine Race together!"

Saying this, a look of respect appeared on Mo Xiaocao's face, and she said, "This senior looks young, but his vision is broader than the sky! He truly considers the future of humanity!"

At this moment, Mo Qingshan slowly stood up, and everyone was taken aback.

"Sect Master, what are you going to do?"

Mo Qingshan said, "I think what Xiaocao said makes a lot of sense! I will go visit the sect masters of various sects, hoping they will unite to fight against the Divine Race!"

In fact, even without Mo Qingshan taking the lead, the bloody suppression by the Divine Race had already made the major sects restless.

This time, the Divine Race was clearly enraged.

Thus, they acted without restraint.

When they killed, they killed in large numbers.

In their eyes, these sect disciples were nothing but a flock of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

If they were displeased, they killed!

Thus, the leaders of these sects quickly reached a consensus and planned to join forces to fight against the Divine Race!

Ye Yuan's slaughter of over a dozen patrol palaces had already planted a seed in the hearts of the sect leaders.

When oppression reaches its limit, even pigs and sheep will rise up in resistance.

But just as these sects reached an agreement and were about to act, Qin Chao returned!

He came back alone. When Mo Qingshan saw Qin Chao again, he felt as if he were seeing a different person.

In just a few months, he felt that Qin Chao had been completely reborn!

"Senior, he went to the Southern Realm Patrol Palace!"

The first words Qin Chao said upon seeing Mo Qingshan shocked everyone deeply.
