The cold wind poured into the forest and rolled up layers of withered yellow leaves on the ground.

Fine dust and debris are blown up, forming floating objects that look like yellow snow.

Zhang Rongfang looked at Zhao Tianming with a distorted face through the eyes of the mask.

"Since you did what you did that day, you should have thought that what happened today will definitely happen."

He walked closer step by step. His boots crushed the dead leaves on the ground, and then the broken leaves were picked up by the wind and blown forward.

"It's you!!" Zhao Tianming suddenly twisted and yelled, pointing his finger at Zhang Rongfang.

"It's all you!! If you didn't show up in the first place, how could I possibly have done it! How..."

Bang!!

In an instant, a figure rushed in front of him, grabbed his throat with one hand, and raised him high.

puff.

Another dagger quietly pierced Zhao Tianming's heart.

The hilt of the sword was twisted hard.

Blood overflowed from the edge of the wound, gradually staining the clothes red.

Zhao Tianming struggled. He was attacked at the moment when his emotions were most intense. The huge difference in strength prevented him from even making a little resistance.

"Please... let... let go of my... family..." He raised his hand and tried to catch Zhang Rongfang.

But when the arm was raised halfway, it fell down weakly.

"I promise you. I can't live up to my family." Zhang Rongfang said softly with a hint of unbearability in his eyes.

In one day, he witnessed too much killing and death.

After hearing this sentence, Zhao Tianming finally slowly closed his eyes, tilted his head, and completely lost his voice.

Zhang Rongfang let go of his hand, sighed, and let it fall to the ground.

Without looking at the body again, he turned around and left quickly.

Previously, he had just received the news, so he hurriedly came to deal with Zhao Tianming.

Zhao Tianming thought he could escape, but unfortunately, today's Tanyang City is full of people from the Golden Wing Tower.

The power of the Golden Wing Tower radiates throughout the city, and no one can escape the surveillance of the dead soldiers and intelligence personnel.

After walking quickly through the forest for dozens of seconds, Zhang Rong came to a burning ruins of a building.

The ruins are full of collapsed buildings, broken beams, burning walls, and piles of black smoke.

and corpses all over the ground.

At the front of the ruins, a broken plaque on the ground clearly showed several large characters: Zhaojiazhuang.

Zhang Rongfang quickly found a fire, stretched out his hand, and grabbed the manuscript and silk in his arms.

"What are you doing?"

Suddenly a voice sounded behind him.

Zhang Rongfang was stabbed all over, and chills surged from his back to his head.

He let go of his hand and turned around slowly.

Standing behind him is none other than the goddess Tongzhang.

She was dressed in white, flawless, with long hair swaying in the wind, and holding a gold needle on her fingertips.

He stared at Zhang Rongfang with deep eyes.

"You...just went to kill someone?"

Zhang Rongfang was silent for a moment.

"Subordinate... I just received news from my subordinate, so I went to deal with a traitor in advance."

Tongzhang stared at him quietly, his eyes unblinking, and his clear black pupils reflected the reflection of the person in front of him like a mirror.

The wind helped the fire grow bigger and bigger.

Gradually, even the last bits of debris in Zhaojiazhuang were engulfed in flames.

The two looked at each other for several seconds.

Zhang Rongfang was the first to bow his head to show respect.

I don't know why, but he always feels frightened at any time in front of the goddess Tongzhang.

As if...as if the other party might attack him at any time.

"You are a good boy...a good boy...don't do bad things..."

"...Yes!" The feeling of horror in Zhang Rongfang's heart gradually sank and disappeared.

His body's instincts felt that the alert was lifted, and he breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had passed the test.

Originally, he had been following Tiannu Tongzhang, but just now he took advantage of the other party's brief absence to go after Zhao Tianming. This in itself was a disrespectful act.

As a member of the organization, I would act on my own without asking my superiors for instructions at this time.

If it had been someone else with a bad temper, he would have been suspected on the spot of being a tip-off and collaborating with the enemy.

"Let's go..." Goddess Tongzhang turned around and continued walking towards the forest on the left side of Zhaojiazhuang.

Every step she took seemed gentle, but the distance she covered was much larger than imagined.

It's almost like floating, with a tap of your toes, it glides a few meters away.

Zhang Rongfang spread out his body skills and managed to follow her not far behind.

"All the secret sects hidden in Zhaojiazhuang have been killed. Why did you tell that person just now that you were willing to bypass his family?"

The goddess' sudden words almost frightened Zhang Rongfang so much that he trembled and stopped where he was.

He opened his mouth, but his throat felt so dry that he couldn't say a word.

"Are you afraid?" The goddess did not turn around, "You have done nothing wrong, why are you afraid?"

"Subordinate..." Zhang Rongfang wanted to say something, but he didn't know what excuse to use.

The other party's ability to clearly see hidden emotions made him feel more cautious.

"My subordinate, I just feel that he is going to die eventually, so it would be better to let him die more peacefully. In this way, maybe he won't turn into a ghost and harm me in the future."

Zhang Rongfang answered carefully.

This answer was obviously beyond the goddess' expectations.

She looked at Zhang Rongfang strangely.

"Do you believe there are ghosts in the world?"

Zhang Rongfang was silent for a moment and answered.

"I don't know...but since we are going to take action, we must avoid all possible troubles. Therefore, even if there is a ghost, letting him go with peace of mind can reduce the danger and trouble."

Even that kind of weird statue has appeared, what else is impossible?

The goddess looked at him with a strange look.

It seems that now I really feel that this guy is a talent.

"Let's go."

She said no more and moved on.

The two of them walked in tandem and soon arrived in front of a completely unfamiliar small village.

Groups of Yunyan soldiers in gray and white armor had already arrived in the village in advance.

Bodies of villagers were lying everywhere on the ground.

Most of the elderly, children, women, and farmers were beheaded to death, and a small number had their necks wiped.

Zhang Rongfang even saw two infant babies chopped into two pieces with a knife...

He sighed in his heart. Looking forward, he saw that the goddess Tongzhang had already met with a strong dead warrior commander who was at least two meters tall.

The commander was reporting something to her in a low voice.

The sound was too low and the wind was too loud, so I couldn't hear clearly for a while.

Zhang Rongfang was not in the mood to eavesdrop at this time, so he wanted to quickly find an opportunity to completely burn the scriptures in his arms.

This scripture is not even allowed to be copied by hand, and obviously its contents must not be known to anyone.

Manuscripts are generally very likely to contain errors and omissions, so this version is not allowed to be leaked.

what does that mean?

This means that Jinzhilou and Lingting are not willing to take any risks.

If Zhang Rongfang still cannot guess the background of Golden Wing Tower by now, then he has really lived such a long life in vain.
