The only thing that can be confirmed is that the extermination of the Stone Family happened recently, as there are no signs of decay on any of the corpses. From this perspective, the downfall of the Stone Family might have actually occurred before the destruction of the Li Family.
This irony is quite profound.
The martial artists who went out from the Stone Family are in utter despair, collapse, and madness over the current state of their clan.
Fortunately, there are a few with steady temperaments who quickly spread the shocking news of the Stone Family's destruction. Whether this news is limited to the Stone Family or has wider implications, whether the murderer is targeting only the Stone Family or has other motives, in any case, it is essential to announce this information to the world as soon as possible...
When Chu Yang and the others received this shocking news, they had just walked a short distance out of the northwest and arrived at a small town!
Everyone was traveling at a brisk pace, and although they were not exhausted due to their high cultivation levels, they still needed to fill their stomachs. Just as they were looking for a restaurant to eat and replenish their energy, they overheard a flurry of discussions. Mo Tianji, unfortunately, happened to step on a stone and was startled by the news, causing him to stumble and fall hard.
This fall was truly a moment of humiliation for the otherwise proud Mo Tianji. It was not only unprecedented but also likely the last time he would experience such a public disgrace. Those lucky enough to witness it were indeed in for a sight.
Since departing from the northwest, Chu Yang had noticed that Mo Tianji seemed distracted at times, unlike his usual wise and steady self.
However, he truly did not expect Mo Tianji to reach such a state. He hurriedly went forward to help him up, but Mo Tianji's face was flushed, and this fall had thoroughly embarrassed him.
"Tianji, what's wrong with you?" Chu Yang found this truly puzzling; although the news was undoubtedly shocking, it shouldn't have shaken Mo Tianji to this extent, right?
"It’s nothing, nothing. I was just lost in thought for a moment. Really, it’s nothing, don’t worry," Mo Tianji said with a hint of redness on his handsome face, forcing a dry laugh to cover it up.
Mo Qingwu looked at her second brother with great confusion, furrowing her brows. Knowing Mo Tianji well, she, who had the memories of two lifetimes, could not think of anyone else. Even Chu Yang was at a loss; today’s Mo Tianji was indeed behaving unusually, almost like a naive young boy who was ignorant of the world.
"Mo Tianji, you’re not having a moment of infatuation, are you? The legendary Nine Calamity Sage is actually having a crush, how rare!" Ji Mo and Rocky Luo seized the opportunity to burst into laughter.
"Get lost!" Mo Tianji shouted, his face red with anger, and rushed upstairs.
The extermination of the Stone Family was such a significant matter that everyone needed to know about it immediately. This restaurant was a chaotic gathering place, making it an excellent spot to gather information.
In their urgency, the group did not hesitate and quickly found a large table in the hall, which already had a dozen people seated around it. With a wave of his hand, Ji Er boldly approached, slamming his hand on the table!
The people at the table, who looked like martial artists, would not back down easily and shouted angrily, "What do you want? Are you looking for trouble?" Ji Mo snorted, and with a loud "bang," he slapped down ten pieces of Amethyst onto the table, followed by another loud "bang" of another ten pieces, and then a third...
The people at the table fell silent, breathing heavily as they stared at the Amethyst before them!
This was Amethyst, a treasure...
They had seen it before, but never in such quantities. If this were mine, I...
Seeing such a heap appear suddenly was truly shocking!
Ji Er clapped down a full hundred pieces of Amethyst and pointed at the table with his finger, "I don't want to cause trouble; I just want a straightforward answer. If you let us have this table, this hundred pieces of Amethyst will be yours! Is that a fair deal?"
