e committed now""Okay... okay, please don't electrocute me anymore, I'll say anything!"Now, Ouyang Da really wanted to die. He didn't want to experience this feeling even for a second, his eyes filled...The guards launched a flurry of arrows, but Song Jian's expression grew increasingly grim.
As guards of the manor, they were equipped with the best bows and arrows in the entire Tianfeng Empire, all imbued with formations, making them extremely deadly. However, when fired at these people, they didn't have much effect.
These people, even the weakest ones, were originally at least in the Refining Void realm. Now, after going mad, their physical bodies are incredibly strong, almost comparable to monsters.
Arrows strike flesh, only those of weaker cultivation will be harmed. Those of stronger power find their defenses impenetrable.
After a fierce and desperate battle, only three or four people were left lying in a pool of blood.
But the rest of them became more savage, their destructive power growing stronger. One by one, pavilions in the palace were torn down, and one by one, beautiful gardens were destroyed.
Fortunately, these people were only venting their madness without a clear target. They even attacked each other, causing their efficiency to plummet drastically. Otherwise, I fear the entire palace would have been razed to the ground.
"Damn it, who can tell me what the hell is going on"
Watching his painstakingly built palace crumble into ruins, while he was utterly powerless to stop it, Song Jian's rage boiled over.
The bald man's name was Zhao Lian, he was Song Jian's personal bodyguard and his most loyal subordinate.
He said, "My lord, have you noticed any changes in the people from the Di family"
"What kind of change It's just madness, isn't it" said Song Jian angrily.
"My lord, take another look, don't you think these people look much older than before"
Song Jian, enraged and anxious just moments ago, hadn't paid close attention. Now, after hearing Zhao Lian's words, he looked again and indeed found that every member of the Di family appeared much older than before.
Especially Di Long and Di Hu, they were already quite old, and now they looked even more haggard. Their hair was white with age, and they seemed frail and withered.
And those who remain, while better off, are aging rapidly.
Song Jian's expression changed slightly. As the prince of the Tianfeng Empire and a grand marshal, he was considered well-informed, but he had never seen such a situation before. He couldn't help asking, "What's going on"
Zhao Lian said: "According to my subordinates, they should have been poisoned, by a very special kind of poison."
"Poisoned" Song Jian immediately thought of something and shouted, "Are you saying that the kid surnamed Ye poisoned them"
"It must be him; otherwise, there's no one else."
Zhao Lian said, "When he was at Lingxiao Academy, that boy wasn't really admitting defeat. The reason he proactively handed these people over to us was to find an opportunity to get his hands dirty."
However, his methods of poisoning were too sophisticated, not even his subordinates noticed it.
"Damn it, to dare to scheme against this king!"
Song Jian was so angry his eyes were blazing. If the other party had just poisoned the people from the Di family, it would have been fine, but the key was that this poison was too strange, and it destroyed his entire palace along with killing so many people.
What was most unacceptable to him wasn't just that, he had always been accustomed to strategizing and manipulating others.
Today, he got the news and rushed to Lingxiao Academy. His purpose was to force Ye Bufan to submit, to show him his power, and let him see what he was capable of.
The result turned out well, he didn't manage to do anything to the other party, but instead was badly tricked once. This huge sense of frustration made him incredibly miserable.
"Ye, you wait for me! This King will make you pay for your foolishness today."
At this moment, Song Jian was radiating a cold, killing aura all over his body.
Inside the palace, as time passed, the frenzied aura of those from the Di family grew weaker and weaker until one by one they collapsed and died.
What's terrifying is that whether it's the elderly Dileong and Dihu, or those young disciples, they all end up looking withered and aged when they die.
Everyone in attendance was horrified. The poison was simply too powerful, making people's scalp tingle just by looking at it, instilling a fear from deep within their hearts.
Soon a man in his forties or fifties ran over, it was the steward of the mansion.
Song Jian asked, "How is it, have you finished counting the losses"
"My lord, the results are in."
The steward said, “Just now we had a total of one hundred and eight servants and guards killed and injured. Seventy-five were seriously injured, and one hundred and thirty-six were lightly injured.”
The palace was destroyed two-thirds, and if it were to be completely restored, the preliminary estimate of the losses would be 15 billion gold coins...
Listening to the butler's report, Song Jian couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in his heart. They were all his most loyal subordinates, and this kind of loss was definitely not something that could be made up for in a short time.
And even though he is a prince, with the palace in such disrepair, 150 billion gold coins is still no small sum.
Moreover, if this matter gets out, the losses won't just be financial, but also to An Shun Prince's face.
In a word, this is a devastating loss!
Seeing his expression extremely embarrassed, Zhao Lian said: "Your Highness, shall I bring someone to capture that boy and question him"
"What crime"
As a cunning and experienced commander, although Song Jian was enraged at this moment, his basic rationality remained.
"Do you think it would be possible to determine if the Di family members were poisoned in this situation Even if it could be proven that they were poisoned, how could we prove that Ye Bufan was the one who poisoned them"
Now that boy has the Empress Dowager standing behind him. You want to arrest someone without evidence I'm afraid before you even make a move, people from the palace will be here.
"What are we going to do Are we just going to take this"
Zhao Lian's face was filled with indignation. Since following the prince, he had never been treated this way.
"Of course, I can't stand for this, I must get revenge, but not now."
We must be tactful and slowly lead that kid to his death!
Song Jian said, a glint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes. He didn't believe that with his own experience and cunning, he wouldn't be able to kill a young man in his twenties.
Since the prince had already made a decision, Zhao Lian naturally couldn't say much. He asked, "Then how should these people be dealt with"
"What should we do with them Just burn everything and act like they never came."
Song Jian finished speaking, turned his head to look in the direction of Lingxiao Academy, and gritted his teeth and said: “Boy, you wait for this king!”
In the study of Dean Qingyu's branch, Fa Zheng sat on a master's chair, sipping fragrant tea from his cup while lost in thought.
At this moment, the door swung open and Bai Zhiwen rushed in from outside.
They also have their own news channels. As soon as the Di family made a move, they received the news and have been sending people to investigate the situation there.
"Dean, you are truly clairvoyant."
Bai Zhiwen stood up a thumb, with an admiring expression, and said, "Just now our people sent back news, the Di family not only lost, but lost very miserably. Di Canghai and Di Rong were killed on the spot by Ye Bufan."
Upon hearing this, Fa Zheng raised an eyebrow: “What’s going on Could it be that the expert behind that boy has stepped in”
Since Shi Wan Ce's death, he had suspected that there was a super expert backing Ye Bufan, which is why he hadn't acted rashly.
Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!n't your capital for looking down on others, besides, you're just a weakling!"Then, a thunderous roar erupted."Teacher Ye won! Long live Teacher Ye!""Teacher Ye, you're my idol, I want to give birth t...
