With a warehouse full of supplies, I stood alone as king in this chaotic world, gun in hand.

"Rumble—rumble—"

The faint sounds of explosions could be heard.

Nangong Wu glanced at Bei Chenyan, "What's going on?"

Bei Chenyan told her, "Li Ke arrived this morning as well. I had him take people to Changyang Temple to inspect it and bring the explosives you left for us."

Nangong Wu listened without saying anything and continued writing the proclamation.

She finished writing the manifesto and put it in her space, asking Eileen to make several thousand copies.

Qi Ziyang said, "Since everything is settled here, I'd like to leave this afternoon."

"Let's have lunch together and then leave!" Nangong Wu said.

There's really nothing left to keep here.

Upon hearing this, Li Zhan went out and fired a signal flare, urging Li Ke and the others to return as soon as possible.

A little over fifteen minutes later, Li Ke and the others returned. There were more than thirty people in total, including members of the Flying Feather Guard and the Wujian Pavilion.

"Princess, Young Master Xiao, there is no one left in Changyang Temple. We did not go in to check the caves on the back mountain; they were all destroyed with explosives," Li Ke reported to them.

"You did a good job blasting it." Nangong Wu wanted nothing left of Changyang Temple.

Ling Yangzi, you'd better stay hidden like a coward for the rest of your life. If you dare to cause trouble again, I'll make sure you die a horrible death.

Li Ke then said, "Princess, after our inspection, there's nothing left in Changyang Temple. The death toll may be five or six thousand, and most of the bodies haven't been burned in the fire. Should we go and deal with them?"

"Don't worry about it!" Nangong Wu raised her hand, her eyes icy cold. "No one will come in here anymore, so let that place become their graveyard."

"You've got nothing better to do, haven't you? You're actually thinking of going to collect their corpses?" Qi Ziyang laughed.

"I didn't. I was just thinking that if the body wasn't buried, the virus would breed." Li Ke remembered Nangong Wu saying this.

"Don't worry! There are wolves and wild beasts on that back mountain, so it won't be wasted," Ji Hongfei said.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Call all our people back, have lunch, and then leave," Nangong Wu ordered.

"Yes!" Li Ke replied, then turned and went out again.

Bei Chenyan also instructed the people around him, "Go find Manager He. There's no need to guard Luoyan City anymore. Tell him to pack his things and evacuate everyone today."

Changyang Temple no longer exists, so there's no need to guard this place anymore.

"Understood!" The man hurriedly went downstairs.

More than an hour later, everyone was ready to leave.

Qi Ziyang and Manager He, along with about a hundred members of the Wujian Pavilion, escorted four women back to the Southern Qi Kingdom.

Three of the women were from the Southern Qi Kingdom, and one was from a small country near the Southern Qi Kingdom, whom they took with them.

Before he left, Nangong Wu gave him two thousand copies of the proclamation, saying, "Post it in every city you go to, even the smallest town."

"Please rest assured, Princess, once we return to Nanqi, we will send people to post notices everywhere, ensuring that Ling Yangzi will be infamous for eternity!" Qi Ziyang smiled and had someone take the box and load it onto the carriage.

After the people from Wujian Pavilion left, Xin Nan was next. More than thirty people from the Zhuque Sect came to escort two women to the Eastern Jin Kingdom.

Nangong Wu also gave him more than a thousand proclamations.

Xin Nan mounted her horse, clasped her hands in farewell, and said, "Farewell! If fate allows, we will meet again!"

Nangong Wu and Beichen Yan also clasped their hands in greeting.

Take care on your journey.

Finally, there's Mei Wuchen.

They were to send three women back to the Northern Di Kingdom.

"Princess Runing, once I've finished this business, I will move my sect to the Western Yan Kingdom and from then on, I will only obey your orders." Mei Wuchen clasped his hands in farewell to them.

"Wait a minute." Nangong Wu suddenly remembered she had something to ask him. "Sect Leader Mei, I heard you're the son of the Nine Nether Sect Leader, is that right?"

She originally had a grudge against the original Nine Nether Sect, and Mei Wuchen was the son of the Nine Nether Sect Master, so he could also be considered her enemy.

But since Mei Wuchen killed the Nine Nether Sect Master, this grudge will not extend to him.

There's nothing we can do; she's just that kind of person who holds grudges.

Upon hearing this, Mei Wuchen's gaze immediately turned cold. "I am not his son."

"Aren't you the son of the Nine Nether Sect Master?"

Both Nangong Wu and Beichen Yan were surprised.

"No, I was just a killing tool he kept." Mei Wuchen's voice was cold as he recounted some of his experiences:

"I only had one nanny to take care of me since I was a child. I started learning martial arts at the age of three and went out to take on missions at the age of twelve. It was also the first time I killed someone. He didn't care whether I completed the mission or not. I would get a beating from him when I came back. He would beat me when he was unhappy, and he would beat me when I was drunk."

Once, when my nanny went to get medicine for my injuries, he was beaten to death! From that moment on, I wanted to kill him, otherwise, I would be beaten to death by him one day.

So, after I accepted the second mission, I stopped going back. I used the excuse of taking on missions outside to appease him while I practiced martial arts diligently and secretly developed my own power.

Two or three years passed, and that person finally realized something was wrong and sent people to try to take me back.

I was young then and didn't dare to confront him directly. More than three years passed, and his men ambushed me, but I wasn't there, and many of my men were killed.

I was enraged and disguised myself to return to headquarters. Since I had men within his ranks, I led my men to kill him that very night, and wiped out all his loyal followers. Then I left for the Northern Di Kingdom and founded my own sect.

"How old are you now?" Nangong Wu looked into his eyes. "Do you still remember your parents?"

Judging from his voice, he must be quite young.

"I'm twenty-three years old (by the traditional Chinese age reckoning)." Mei Wuchen didn't know why she asked this, but she still answered truthfully:

"I heard them say that I was an orphan he picked up, or maybe his parents were killed by him and he took me in because I was small, so that I could work for him when I grew up."

"That's possible." Nangong Wu agreed with him. "I have a grudge against the Nine Nether Sect. My twin brother was stolen by the Nine Nether Sect and has not been found yet."

"If you hadn't killed the Nine Nether Sect Master, you'd probably be dead by now!"

"The Nine Nether Sect stole your brother?" Mei Wuchen was also surprised. "If that's the case, he's very likely been sold by them, because they've sold quite a few children."

That person will do anything, as long as someone pays him.

Nangong Wu's face darkened.

If Nangong Xiao really was sold, where would she go to find him in this vast sea of ​​people?

Ai Qi suddenly emerged from the space, pointed at Mei Wuchen's face, and said jokingly:

"Master Mei, you've known the princess for a while now, aren't you even willing to let us see your true face?"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Wu also looked at his face.

Mei Wuchen is twenty-three years old, the same age as her. He was a child picked up by the Nine Nether Sect Master. Could he be her older brother? It can't be such a coincidence!

"I... am very ugly." Mei Wuchen reached out and touched the mask on his face.

He has worn this mask for many years and has never taken it off in public.
