Ancient Ancestral Gods

Thick clouds in the sky flashed with lightning. Huge thunderbolts swept across the world like rolling mountains and overturning seas, causing all living things on the ground to tremble. The wild beasts were scared off and babies to cry.    

Not long after, heavy rain began to fall and wash away the dust on the surface of the earth.    

The sound of the rain could be heard constantly in the forest. Streams of small streams gathered together and rushed down the mountain, carrying sand and gravel along with them.    

At this moment when even the wild beasts in the mountain stopped moving, there was a group of people filled with killing intent. They quickly ran through the muddy mountain forest, and the surrounding immortal beasts were scared away.    

A few miles away, in a mountain cave, the sound of rain could be heard falling into the cave.    

Under the weak light, the heavily injured Xiao Fan knelt in front of Shi Qie's grave, sadness in his eyes.    

"Rest in peace, I will avenge all of you!" Xiao Fan's low voice came out from the cave.    

After a day of continuous evasion and killing, his guards had all died. The last two guards died in the cave.    

Xiao Fan took one last look at the stone tomb, bid farewell to the people who were protecting him until he died, then turned and left the cave, sprinting towards the east.    

Passing through the forest in front of him, they arrived at the territory of the Heavenly Palace.    

As long as he entered the territory of the Heaven Palace sect, he would not have to worry about the assassins chasing after him.    

Not long after Xiao Fan left the cave, he was discovered by the assassin behind him.    

The situation was extremely urgent. Xiao Fan dragged his exhausted body through the mountain forest and fled towards the south with all his might.    

Those assassins were ruthless and extremely powerful.    

If he was chased by the assassins, he would die without a doubt.    

With the heavy rain, the muddy mountain road, and his exhausted body, Xiao Fan stumbled forward as he struggled.    

"Brat, you can't escape. Die!" A terrifying figure appeared three hundred meters away from Xiao Fan and let out a sound that caused one to feel fear.    

That sound was like the call of the god of death, filled with endless killing intent and death energy.    

In that moment, Xiao Fan's eyes opened and his pupils dilated. His face was filled with fear as he rolled down the hill.    

In the end, he was still caught by the killer.    

Covered in death's embrace, Xiao Fan crawled back up in panic, wanting to continue moving forward.    

But at this moment, that person took out a bow and arrow, and bent down to draw the bow. The head of the scissor emitted a weak light, and when rain fell on it, it instantly evaporated.    

Whoosh! Crack!    

The red clothed man shot out an arrow that resembled lightning bolts, shooting towards the fleeing Xiao Fan.    

At that moment, when he heard the commotion behind him, Xiao Fan turned around to take a look.    

Before he could react, the arrow had already reached his chest.    

Xiao Fan only felt a heart wrenching pain from his chest as large mouthfuls of fresh blood sprayed out. His breastbone was fractured, and blood stained his chest.    

Under the huge impact of the arrow, Xiao Fan's entire body flew out and fell off the cliff.    

At that moment, despair and unwillingness completely exploded from Xiao Fan's heart. The intense pain made him unable to even shout out the last words.    

This was the end of his life. The future he had been dreaming about had vanished into thin air before he could even take the first step.    

A flopping sound could be heard from below the cliff. A few red-robed men looked down at the rapidly flowing river.    

"We can't go any further. If we go any further, we'll reach the territory of the Heavenly Mansion. It would be impossible for him to survive if he was hit by an arrow. Let's go!" The person who shot Xiao Fan said coldly.    

The river was flowing so fast, Xiao Fan had long floated far away and left no trace behind.    

If they continued to chase after him, it would be extremely dangerous for them to confirm Xiao Fan's life and death. After all, the person they killed was the son of the Heavenly Palace's Master.    

Moreover, his strength was strong, far beyond the kind of strength that a trash like Xiao Fan could resist.    

The group of people retreated in an orderly manner, not daring to advance any further.    

The swift river water lapped against the two banks, splashing forward.    

Not far from the river was a Wanhua City, which was the first major town in the eastern region of the Heavenly Palace.    

It was noon. The dark clouds in the sky dispersed and the hot sun shined onto the land.    

Outside the East gate of the Wanhua City, the flow of people started to increase and the guards at the gate also started to get busy.    

As soon as the city guard entered the city, he saw several patrolling soldiers carrying a heavily injured person into the city.    

Seeing the person on the stretcher, the city guard general's expression became even more unsightly. His anger and grief mixed together.    

"Yes, it's young master. Quick, send young master to the general's residence for his treatment!"    

"In addition, hurry to Sky Heaven City and inform the Martial House Master that young master has been severely injured!" The city guard general shouted out an order in a hurry as he personally carried Xiao Fan to the general's mansion.    

On this day, the entire Wanhua City was in an uproar as people started discussing amongst themselves.    

In the general's manor, every soldier, from the general, was filled with rage and worry.    

The son of their Lord Prefect had been heavily injured, and his life was in danger.    

The entire night, the general's residence was under heavy guard. General Yang Jian had been treating Xiao Fan ever since Xiao Fan entered the residence, and had not taken even half a step out of the room.    

The sky had just begun to brighten when a large troop of iron cavalry stormed into Wanhua City and headed straight for the General's Estate.    

A middle-aged man wearing a purple qilin robe, with sharp eyes that were filled with a noble domineering aura, walked into the City Lord's Mansion.    

"Greetings, Manorlord!"    

All the guards kneeled on the ground respectfully when they saw the newcomer.    

Xiao Zhe waved his hand and directly headed towards the house that Xiao Fan was in.    

The moment he entered the room, Xiao Zhe's sharp and overbearing gaze disappeared, to be replaced by his father's kind gaze and worry.    

"How are Fan'er's injuries?" Xiao Zhe looked at Xiao Fan's injuries with grief in his heart, and said to Yang Jian.    

"Martial House Master, the young master's life has been saved, but for the rest of his life ?" Yang Jian's face was grim as he spoke.    

"What do you mean?" In an instant, Xiao Zhe's face became pale, and her rage could not reach.    

Yang Jian had not finished speaking, but he had already guessed what Yang Jian wanted to say next.    

"If it wasn't for the fact that the arrow missed its target and struck the right side of the young master's chest, dodging the fatal arrow, he would have died long ago!" Yang Jian opened Xiao Fan's shirt, pointed at Xiao Fan's wound and said: "Although Young Noble has protected your life, but the power of that arrow was too great, causing Crown Prince's entire body to be paralyzed, you will have to spend the rest of your life in bed!"    

"Bastard!" If I find out who did it, I will definitely annihilate his entire family! " Xiao Zhe clenched his fists tightly, his nails piercing through his skin and dripping blood.    

Looking at the sunken wound on Xiao Fan's chest, Xiao Zhe was both furious and hurt at the same time. His son was almost killed.    

Although he had managed to save a life, Xiao Fan's situation was not looking good.    

"Manorlord, what should we do next?" Yang Jian asked.    

"Send all the spies out! We must find out who did it!" Xiao Zhe said angrily: "You go out first!"    

"Yes!" Prefecture Lord! " Yang Jian left the room, leaving behind Xiao Fan and his son.    

He didn't activate the power in his body, and instead crippled him, making him unusable. Countless years of planning have failed, and I have to give it up again, starting from the beginning. Damn it! Xiao Zhe's entire body was trembling, his eyes brimming with killing intent.    

"Is it really as Yan Wu said, Xiao Zhe is truly a sinister and mean person, what does he want to do with Xiao Fan in this world?" Xiao Fan looked at the fixed scene on the energy screen, his face was gloomy, and spoke with a bit of anger.
