Wu Shattered Star River

"What? An anomaly at Black Blood Mountain?"

The news from Dark Valley immediately alarmed the higher-ups of the Kan Clan.

Although it didn't alarm the Kan Clan's patriarch, it did alarm an elder in charge of affairs. That elder immediately sent a message to Toad Ancestor, instructing him to investigate.

Toad Ancestor flashed and rushed towards Black Blood Mountain, his speed so fast that he arrived in just over a dozen breaths.

Not only him, but three Sect Leaders had also arrived, entering the depths of Black Blood Mountain together with Toad Ancestor.

The Garrison Commander had already arrived at the foot of Black Blood Mountain, suspiciously scanning his surroundings. Apart from discovering that Jiang Han's soul had a problem, he found nothing unusual.

After waiting for a moment, Toad Ancestor descended with the three Sect Leaders.

Toad Ancestor glanced around, finding no external enemies. He asked suspiciously, "What's the situation?"

The Garrison Commander replied, "Greetings, Toad Ancestor, greetings, three Sect Leaders. Just now, Black Blood Mountain suddenly lit up with a black light, then trembled slightly. I immediately came down to investigate, but found nothing amiss. It seems… only Jiang Han's soul has dissipated!"

Toad Ancestor glanced at Jiang Han and asked, "No sign of external enemies?"

"None!"

The Garrison Commander said with certainty, "The formation has been sealed the entire time. No external enemies infiltrated. Black Blood Mountain just trembled suddenly!"

"Strange!"

Toad Ancestor suspiciously scanned his surroundings, muttering, "This Black Blood Mountain is a magical artifact personally refined by the Old Ancestor. It has been stored here for seven million years and has never had any problems. Why would there be an anomaly today?"

The three Sect Leaders were equally perplexed. The Garrison Commander didn't dare to interrupt, standing aside.

Toad Ancestor's gaze swept over the group of suppressed cultivators, asking, "What happened here? Who can tell me?"

The group of cultivators remained silent, not saying a word. They had been suppressed here for many years, their hearts filled with hatred for the Kan Clan. How could they possibly pay attention to Toad Ancestor?

Toad Ancestor turned his gaze to Kan Qiu, asking, "Kan Qiu, what happened inside? Tell me immediately, without omitting anything, or I will exterminate your three clans!"

Kan Qiu's face turned pale. He hadn't expected Jiang Han's soul to be absorbed by Black Blood Mountain, causing the anomaly and alarming the higher-ups of the Kan Clan.

"I'm going to be killed by Jiang Han!"

He secretly regretted it. Originally, he was thinking that since he couldn't get out, he would see if he could save Jiang Han, so he could find a way to take his relatives away.

But he hadn't expected things to evolve like this.

If Toad Ancestor knew that he had messed with Jiang Han's soul, causing such a change, his three clans would probably be doomed.

He could only bite the bullet and say, "Toad Ancestor, I don't know what happened either. It seems that Jiang Han's soul flew out of his mind and was absorbed by Black Blood Mountain, which caused the anomaly."

Toad Ancestor's eyes were cold as he looked at Kan Qiu, saying, "Do you dare to deceive me? Do you believe I will kill all three of your clans right now?"

What could Kan Qiu do?

He could only bite the bullet and say, "Toad Ancestor, how would I dare to deceive you? That's the truth!"

Toad Ancestor turned his gaze to the other suppressed cultivators, asking, "Is what he said the truth?"

Not a single cultivator spoke. Only a few cultivators let out eerie laughter, and a few others were screaming miserably.

Toad Ancestor's eyes flickered, and he spoke again, "Whoever tells me the truth, I can release him!"

"Buzz ~"

The eyes of a group of cultivators lit up. Kan Qiu's face turned pale. One cultivator said, "I'll tell you. It was Kan Qiu who grabbed his soul out. It was Kan Qiu, Toad Ancestor. You must keep your word and let me out!"

"That's right!"

Another cultivator said, "It was this Kan Clan member who sucked out the soul of this human, and then the human's soul entered Black Blood Mountain, causing the anomaly!"

"Kan Qiu!"

Toad Ancestor's killing intent surged as he looked at Kan Qiu, saying, "What else do you have to say?"

Kan Qiu's face turned pale, but he still bit the bullet and said, "Toad Ancestor, I just wanted to retaliate against Jiang Han. I wanted to tear his soul apart. I didn't expect this to happen!"

"Still trying to quibble?"

Toad Ancestor roared angrily, then said to a Sect Leader behind him, "Kan Ruishan, take a team to capture all of Kan Qiu's family members and report the matter to the Clan Patriarch. Tell the Clan Patriarch my opinion. I think Kan Qiu betrayed the clan and should have his three clans exterminated!"

"Shua shua shua!"

Kan Qiu's face turned pale, his eyes filled with fear. He hurriedly shouted, "Toad Ancestor, I didn't. Spare my relatives. Even if I'm guilty, it has nothing to do with my relatives, Toad Ancestor, I beg you, I beg you!"

The Sect Leader seemed to have a good relationship with Kan Qiu, actively pleading, "Toad Ancestor, please calm your anger! Considering that Kan Qiu hasn't caused any losses, spare his family, after all, we are of the same clan…"

The other two Sect Leaders didn't say anything. They had a bad relationship with Kan Qiu and suspected that Kan Qiu was a traitor, wishing they could kill his entire family.

Toad Ancestor's expression was indifferent. He coldly snorted and said, "Enough nonsense, carry out the order. Whether his three clans live or die is up to the Clan Patriarch to decide!"

"Alright!"

The Sect Leader sighed helplessly, cupped his hands in salute, and walked outside.

"No, no!"

Despair appeared on Kan Qiu's face, and he shouted sadly.

But the Sect Leader had no choice but to grit his teeth and walk outside.

"Buzz ~"

Just then, the entire Black Blood Mountain suddenly trembled again, and it was a violent tremor.

Suddenly!

All the cultivators felt their bodies sink, experiencing a feeling of weightlessness, as if Black Blood Mountain was soaring into the sky.

Black Blood Mountain could isolate soul sense exploration, but Toad Ancestor's soul sense was strong enough to penetrate Black Blood Mountain and detect the situation outside.

His soul sense swept out, and his expression changed drastically!

Because Black Blood Mountain really flew up, soaring into the sky, and then turned into a stream of light, flying south at a terrifying speed.

"This, what's going on?"

Toad Ancestor was dumbfounded. He knew Black Blood Mountain very well. It was a treasure refined by his Old Ancestor, the Supreme God of Darkness.

This treasure was a magical artifact. If Dark Valley was attacked, Black Blood Mountain could be activated to automatically attack the invading enemy.

What was happening now?

Why did Black Blood Mountain fly up on its own?

Could it be that a powerful enemy was attacking?

"Go out and see!"

Toad Ancestor waved his hand and flew outside, but as soon as he flew to the entrance, a faint light suddenly appeared inside the cave.

Then an invisible door appeared. Toad Ancestor slammed into the door, and his body was bounced back.

"Hmm?"

Toad Ancestor's expression changed again, feeling somewhat inexplicable. His eyes flickered for a moment, and he exclaimed, "Black Blood Mountain has been controlled? Who controlled Black Blood Mountain? Could it be… Jiang Han? Impossible, this… impossible!"
