Chapter 1358: Chapter 1359: This Is Just the Beginning (4)
Long Zaitian kicked the high-ranking officer aside with a fierce blow and strode out swiftly. Shao Xing stopped speaking, following closely behind with a grim expression that was frightening.
The Xuanqing Sect headquarters has a history of over a hundred years. Although not as grand as the old palatial residences, in the hearts of everyone in the martial world, the Xuanqing Sect headquarters is the most crucial symbol of the Xuanqing Sect.
Yet today, someone had the audacity to openly deliver a bomb, blowing the Xuanqing Sect headquarters to pieces!
Isn’t this a blatant slap in the face to the Xuanqing Sect?! Who has the guts to provoke the overlord of Jinyin City so openly?!
When Long Zaitian and Shao Xing rushed over, the main hall was only left with ruins. Members of the Xuanqing Sect shouted while holding fire extinguishers and buckets of water to put out the fire. Thick smoke rolled, choking them to tears. The century-old foundation of the Xuanqing Sect, a mere tip of the iceberg, was finally starting to crumble!
The chaos was so overwhelming that Long Zaitian’s arrival did not attract much attention, and Long Zaitian himself had no mind to care about these things right now. Watching the raging fire before him, he only felt a haze descend over his vision, his entire being on the verge of erupting like a volcano, nearly collapsing.
Just then, a scream suddenly rang out—
"What is that?! What’s written up there?!"
Long Zaitian and Shao Xing were both startled, quickly looking in the direction of the voice. On the display screen outside the newly constructed tower of the Xuanqing Sect headquarters, six bloody-red characters appeared starkly, blinding everyone’s eyes—
"This is only the beginning!"
The members of the Xuanqing Sect cautiously looked toward Long Zaitian, all terrified by his viciously twisted expression. Who would be so daring as to not only send a bomb to the Xuanqing Sect but also provoke them so openly?
"Investigate! Find out what’s going on immediately!" Long Zaitian roared in fury, kicking the chair next to him, which smashed into an injured member, resulting in a series of agonizing cries.
The scene fell into an eerie silence. Whether injured or fighting the fire, everyone clamped their mouths shut tight, their expressions indifferent as they mechanically repeated the tasks at hand.
At this moment, on an inconspicuous street outside the Xuanqing Sect headquarters, a white, low-key Audi was parked steadily by the roadside.
"Miss, it’s done. Long Zaitian and Shao Xing are already on the verge of madness." Inside the car, An Zhifeng sitting in the driver’s seat gave a wicked smile and, after hanging up the phone, said to An Yiqing.
"Hmm, any harm to ordinary citizens?"
"Don’t worry, Zhiyun has everything under control."
Sitting in the back seat, An Yiqing nodded lightly, "Drive. Let Zhiyun and the others return early, and don’t delay the action tonight."
Hearing An Yiqing mention "tonight’s action," An Zhifeng’s face lit up with joy, a thick fighting spirit flashing in his eyes.
The white Audi slowly started moving, quickly disappearing from the street, while far away, the thick smoke and raging fire at the Xuanqing Sect headquarters continued to devour the ugliness and desire.
The fire at the Xuanqing Sect lasted the entire afternoon, only completely ending when the evening sunset was about to vanish beyond the horizon.
Under the dim and hazy afterglow of the setting sun, the Xuanqing Sect headquarters lay desolate, covered with charred debris and mixtures of ash and soil.
In the office
"Foster father, the fire has been extinguished, and the fire trucks just left. I warned them not to talk recklessly about this incident; you needn’t worry." Shao Xing entered, sweating profusely from outside, and without a word, drank the plain water on the coffee table.
Long Zaitian, who had been standing by the French window, nodded slightly, a fleeting flash of ruthlessness in his eyes.
