Chapter 1707: News of Death
The Jade-faced Judge stopped these people from digging at the scene, after all, digging here would easily be discovered. There were too many people who saw the scene, and with so many people talking, if the information spread, it might reach Su Yang's side, making it troublesome if they dug up the Beigong War God.
In the end, it was the Jade-faced Judge, along with a few higher-ups from the Major Sect, who chose a hidden place to bury the Beigong War God about a hundred meters underground. They also set up an array and traps around it, making it impossible for anyone to dig up the Beigong War God, while also isolating him from absorbing external spiritual energy, thus making it impossible to break through the Life and Death Barrier.
After completing all this, the Jade-faced Judge simultaneously instructed the Second Elder to release information externally, claiming the Beigong War God had died in battle. This information was obviously spread to be heard by Su Yang and Lv Donglin, naturally to lure them out.
Su Yang received this information a week later. Together with him, Lv Donglin also emerged from the World Melting Furnace.
Lv Donglin appeared quite haggard, having been sealed by the Beigong War God's power, sleeping in the World Melting Furnace for a long time. After waking up, he was prevented by Su Yang from leaving, almost driving him insane.
Su Yang had kept track of the timing, remembering Beigong War God's instructions clearly, but he never imagined that the Beigong War God would not escape this calamity.
Receiving the news of Beigong War God's death in battle, Su Yang was completely stunned. He couldn't believe that the towering War God had died just like that. How could that be possible?
The Beigong War God had previously told him that he had a backup plan. But why was the situation like this?
As for Lv Donglin, he simply collapsed to the ground, almost falling apart on the spot. He couldn't understand how his invincible uncle could have died just like that. He still remembered his uncle's disdainful expression when he learned the Major Sects wanted him to submit.
A mere Major Sect, how could they possibly kill his uncle?
Watching Lv Donglin's expression from the side, Su Yang felt immensely guilty. He had believed the Beigong War God's words and truly thought he had a backup plan, which was why he left Lv Donglin in the World Melting Furnace and didn't go to help. Now, with this outcome, he didn't know how to face Lv Donglin!
After a long silence, Su Yang sighed and whispered, "Brother Lv, this time, it's my fault. Don't worry, no matter what it takes, I will definitely avenge Mr. Beigong!"
Lv Donglin glanced at Su Yang, his eyes were gray, showing just how sorrowful he was.
"This matter is not your fault." Lv Donglin whispered, "The Major Sects joined forces, nobody could stop them."
Su Yang's eyes were full of killing intent, he slowly clenched his fists and said in a deep voice, "The Major Sects, I will make them pay with blood!"
Lv Donglin sat beside him, not saying a word, as if he were pondering something. After a long time, he suddenly stood up and walked straight towards the direction of the Capital City.
"Brother Lv, what are you going to do?" Su Yang asked quickly.
"Do what must be done!" Lv Donglin said softly.
"Do what must be done?" Su Yang's expression suddenly changed, "You can't just go directly to the Major Sects, you can't possibly contend with them by yourself. To avenge, we must be strategic, not make meaningless sacrifices. If we survive, there's still hope. But if we lose our lives, how can we avenge the Major Sects? Wouldn't that just let the enemies laugh at us?"
"I'm not going for revenge!" Lv Donglin said, "Nor am I going to the Major Sects!"
"Then you are..." Su Yang was bewildered, the Major Sects were in the Capital City, going there was dangerous for Lv Donglin.
"To do what must be done!" Lv Donglin said calmly and ignored Su Yang, speeding up towards the direction of the Capital City.
Su Yang frowned, unsure of what Lv Donglin planned to do, but it was indeed very dangerous. However, he had no choice, and could only follow Lv Donglin.
With the Beigong War God gone, he couldn't let anything happen to Lv Donglin either. Even if something dangerous arose, he would knock out Lv Donglin and take him away if necessary!
In the end, Su Yang's worries were unnecessary. Lv Donglin didn't go to the Capital City; instead, he diverted his course in the suburbs towards another part of the city.
After walking for a while, Su Yang realized that Lv Donglin was not going after the Major Sects, but heading towards the Zhang Family of the Martial Champion.
Su Yang couldn't help but wonder, at this point, was Lv Donglin planning to take revenge on the Zhang Family?
However, as long as it was not targeting the Major Sects, there was not much problem. The Zhang Family, although the Martial Champion cherished his reputation too much, remained neutral!
When they arrived at the Zhang Family, Su Yang found that their doors were tightly shut. Since the Major Sects emerged, the Zhang Family had directly closed their doors, forbidding its members from going out, and outsiders were not allowed to enter.
Lv Donglin didn't care about this; he walked straight up and knocked on the door.
After a long time, the door opened, and a servant came out, bowing and saying, "Sorry, sir. The Zhang Family is closing its doors for a while, and during this time, we are not receiving visitors. Please understand!"
Lv Donglin said softly, "I don't need to come in. Just let Zhang Congwen come out, I have a word for him at the door!"
"I apologize, the first young master has gone to the back yard to accompany the master in secluded training and is temporarily..." the servant said softly.
"Tell him I am Lv Donglin!" Lv Donglin paused and said in a deep voice, "What I want to say is the last words of my uncle, the Beigong War God!"
The servant was taken aback, looked at Lv Donglin, then quickly nodded, "So it's Young Master Lv, please wait!"
The servant hurried inside, and Su Yang looked at Lv Donglin, surprised, "Last words? Did... did your uncle already know he might not get through this?"
"No!" Lv Donglin shook his head, "This is just something my uncle always wanted to say but never had the chance. Before I do what I must, I have to fulfill my uncle's wish, I can't let him have any regrets!"
Su Yang was surprised, but he didn't ask further.
Not long after, Zhang Congwen hurriedly arrived, led by the servant.
Seeing Lv Donglin, Zhang Congwen let out a small breath, waved his hand slightly to signal the servant to go back.
"Young Master Lv!" Zhang Congwen shouted and nodded at Su Yang, "Su Alliance Leader!"
