Chapter 327: Down to Jiangnan, Storm Sudden!

Mu Xuan didn’t value the Heavenly Ranking too much because for the current him, there was no difference between the tenth and third place on the Heavenly Ranking.
He was more concerned about the methods of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion.
The Heavenly Secrets Pavilion actually knew the details of the battle with True Monarch Dream that night. This was very interesting!
“Mu Xuan, why are you going to Jiangnan?” Ling Shanshan asked curiously.
Mu Xuan retracted his thoughts and smiled faintly. “I’ve obtained Heaven’s Perception. Something good will happen in Jiangnan!”
“Fine, if you won’t tell me,” Ling Shanshan muttered. She sat obediently under the ship’s mast and looked at the Canglan River in a daze.
Mu Xuan smiled. He wasn’t lying just now. The heavenly secrets showed that in half a month, there would be chaos in the Jiangnan area!
As an onlooker, Mu Xuan naturally had to go to Jiangnan to take a look. If there was a chance, it would naturally be best.
According to the information he obtained, the Jiangnan area was rich, but it didn’t give birth to a powerful sect. The five great families controlling those provinces were the Dongfang, Xiao, Lin, Ye, and Long families.
There were countless aristocratic families in the Great Zhou world, but only twelve families stood at the top. They were the Great Zhou Imperial Family, the Qin Family, the six former royal families of Chu Qiyan, Han Zhao, and Wei, as well as the five aristocratic families of the East, Xiao, Lin, Ye, and Long!
“The five great families of Jiangnan have been connected by marriage for thousands of years. Could it be that… there’s still a conflict of interest?!” Mu Xuan thought of the upcoming chaos in Jiangnan and smiled.
Suddenly, Mu Xuan sensed his aura and suddenly turned to look to the other side. He saw two youths chatting and laughing all the way to the deck to work. Although they were dressed ordinary, their figures were strong and their auras were extraordinary. Clearly, they were not ordinary people.
Mu Xuan subconsciously used the [Line of Fate] and actually discovered that the two of them were enveloped in a rich aura of fate, as if they vaguely echoed with the entire Great Zhou Dynasty. “Could these two be the legendary protagonists?!”
[Shi Ziling]
Species: Human
Level: Late-stage four-star (equivalent to overlord level 8)
Talent: Extraordinary Comprehension
Cultivation Technique: Longevity Art
[Kou Zhong]
Species: Human
Level: Late-stage four-star (equivalent to overlord level 7)
Talent: Extraordinary Memory
Cultivation Technique: Longevity Art
“Longevity Art, I remember that this is the sect-protecting cultivation method of the Longevity Sect that has already been destroyed. In the end, it appeared on two shipwrights?!” Mu Xuan was even more interested in these two youths.
Could it be that he was going to experience the Twin Dragon Legend of the Great Zhou?!
It was said that the Longevity Sect was also a large sect, but it was tragically destroyed overnight and later became an unsolved case.
He didn’t expect the Longevity Sect to have a successor.
Immediately, Mu Xuan felt the endless waves hidden under the calm water of
the Great Zhou Empire…
Twelve days later, the passenger ship arrived at the terminal, Jinling City, the most prosperous city in Jiangnan.
Shi Ziling and Kou Zhong walked off the passenger ship with a smile. Mu Xuan looked at their figures as they got off the ship. Through the line of fate, he could see that their fates were about to be completely changed!
At the same time, in the Jinling Demon Suppression Division, several tall figures hiding in the darkness gathered, as if they were silently waiting for something.
Not long after, a figure finally appeared. Instantly, everyone in the Demon
Suppression Division of Jinling bowed in unison and said, “I welcome the
Demon Suppression Supervisor!”
The Demon Suppression Division was a powerful department controlled by the Qin family of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It had the ability to investigate all cases related to demons, ghosts, and foreign races!
In the Demon Suppression Division, even the lowest-level Demon Suppression Guards needed a five-star cultivation!
Above the Demon Suppression Guards were the Demon Suppression Envoys, who were in charge of all the Demon Suppression Guards in the province.
Above the Demon Suppression Envoy was the Demon Suppression Supervisor. They were all experts above eight stars!
Legend had it that the Demon Suppression Governor, Zhuge Chengfeng, was already a nine-star expert!
At this moment, the Demon Suppression Supervisor said expressionlessly,
“Pass down the order of the Governor. The Dongfang Clan of Jinling, the Xiao
Clan of Hang City, the Gusu Lin Clan, the Ye Clan of Hu Province, and the Haining Dragon Clan colluded with the Sea Clan to sell humans, build weapons, and have ill intentions. Their families will be exterminated! If you resist, kill without mercy!”
In an instant, everyone in the Demon Suppression Division shouted in surprise, “Yes, all hail the Governor!”
Everyone was pleasantly surprised because there were too many cultivation resources gathered in the ancestral land of the five great families. If they were exterminated, the resources obtained would be enough to increase their strength greatly!
Then, the Demon Suppression Supervisor said coldly, “Move!”
“Yes!”
In the next moment, countless Demon Suppression Envoys and Demon Suppression Guards surged out of the entire Demon Suppression Division. They rushed towards the ancestral land of the five aristocratic families in groups of three to five with killing intent!
A shocking change happened silently under the night sky!
When the entire Demon Suppression Division set off, several figures suddenly appeared. Shockingly, every one of them had the strength of the nine-star Stage!
In an inn, Mu Xuan stood at the highest point and looked down at the entire Jinling. He already felt that a storm was coming, especially when teams of Demon Suppression Guards appeared.
“As expected, the beginning of chaos!” Mu Xuan said with a smile. To outsiders, chaos was good. The more chaos there was, the more opportunities he had!
In the next moment, an angry voice suddenly came from the huge luxurious manor in the north of Jinling City. “Demon Suppression Division, who gave you the guts to attack my Dongfang Manor?!”
Right on the heels of that, an even louder voice sounded. “On the orders of the Governor, the Dongfang family colluded with the Sea Clan, trafficked humans, stored troops for armor, and had ill intentions. Their entire family was confiscated and exterminated. If they resist, they will be killed without mercy!”
“Everyone, follow me into the Dongfang Manor. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!”
In an instant, the entire Jinling City was in an uproar. All the large and small factions were shocked. The Dongfang family and the Demon Suppression Division had actually attacked the Dongfang family!
As expected, in a moment, battle cries had already sounded. The terrifying energy aftershock began to spread, and the entire sky of Jinling was lit up with a beautiful light!
However, under this light, there was a terrifying killing intent!
In an instant, more than a thousand Demon Suppression Guards of the Demon Suppression Division had already attacked the Dongfang family. Everyone was surprised to discover that the Dongfang family was far weaker than they had imagined. Other than sporadic resistance, not a single expert above the eight-star level appeared!
Many people understood that the top experts of the Dongfang family were probably being held back.
In fact, it was precisely because of this that in the sky above the Manor, the top experts of the Dongfang family who wanted to attack had already been captured by the experts of the Demon Suppression Division!
At a certain moment, the strongest expert of the Dongfang family, the late-stage nine-star Dongfang Bubai, finally walked out of a grotto-heaven mystic realm controlled by the Dongfang family. His gaze directly landed on the abnormally tall Governor of the Demon Suppression Division, Zhuge Chengfeng!
Before long, the aura of a battle between nine-star experts formed, and a terrifying astronomical phenomenon was formed!
Right on the heels of that, four to five terrifying power fluctuations also rose in the surrounding area of Jin Ling City. They were all peerless experts at the nine-star level fighting!
No one would have thought that the Demon Suppression Division would actually directly attack the five great families of Jiangnan this time..
