Chapter 201: A Wisp of Haoran Qi

"My Lord, this hole appeared in my Feng Family, so please let my Feng Family send people to investigate it!"

Upon seeing this hole, the expressions of all the informed members of the Feng Family changed slightly; they naturally knew what was beneath it.

When they learned that Shen Yu was coming to the Feng Family to search, they had already had people completely seal the entrances to every dungeon.

These dungeons were over twenty meters deep; as long as the entrance was sealed, it would be impossible to find them, so they were not afraid of being searched.

Originally, they were waiting to see Shen Yu make a fool of himself, waiting to see his embarrassment when he came up empty-handed.

But now, a hole had suddenly appeared here; such a deep hole, with smooth edges, it looked at a glance like it had been sliced open by Sword Qi—did you think I wouldn't notice something so obvious?

It was clearly done on purpose, and now they were suddenly being hit with this; they were being toyed with.

But how did Shen Yu know all of this? Could there be a traitor inside their own house?

Seeing the Black-Clad Guards jumping down with ropes, getting closer and closer to their secret, Feng Mochen appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was already filled with a measure of panic.

"Lord Shen, if the other party could even deceive my Feng Family, it shows that the person who did this is definitely extraordinary."

"In case something happens, I fear the people sent down will suffer heavy losses!"

"Why not let our Feng Family send experts to investigate? After all, this is in the Feng Family, and it should be borne by my Feng Family alone!"

"That won't be necessary, Family Head," Liang Ruyue looked at Feng Mochen and gave a disdainful smile.

"No matter what is down there, my Black-Clad Guards will not retreat a single step; we will not change our expressions even in a mountain of blades or a sea of fire!"

"What, is the Family Head questioning the capability of my Black-Clad Guards?"

"You!" If Shen Yu weren't here, just based on what kind of thing you are, how dare you speak to me like that? Do you believe I could chop you into eighteen pieces in a minute?

"Click, hum!" Just at this moment, a faint sound of a mechanism came from beneath the hole.

Immediately, countless crossbow bolts appeared from deep within the hole, as if they wanted to shoot all the Black-Clad Guards who had rushed down into hedgehogs.

However, when these crossbow bolts approached, they were blocked outside by a force.

Above the hole, although Shen Yu had not gone down, he was constantly monitoring the situation underground. With a light wave of his hand, the so-called mechanical traps inside instantly turned into a pile of scrap metal.

"A petty trick, unworthy of the grand stage!" With a light snort, the Sword Intent on Shen Yu flashed and vanished, and countless Sword Qi surged into the hole like a torrential rain.

Wherever it passed, it devoured everything like dry wood being snapped; whether it was mechanical traps or the experts buried on the side, all were swept away under the Sword Rain.

Looking down from above, the entire dungeon was a mess; apart from the Black-Clad Guards who had just gone down, no other movement could be felt.

"This, this..." This scene fell into the eyes of Feng Mochen, instantly leaving him dumbfounded—you can even do that?

He quietly made a gesture to the back, and the Feng Family members behind him nodded heavily upon seeing it. The meaning of this gesture was very clear: it was time to prepare for the worst.

A wily rabbit has three burrows; they had to prepare an escape route immediately. Even if all the Feng Family members here were wiped out, they must ensure that a portion of the women and children could leave to guarantee the continuation of the Feng Family.

However, before one or two of the Feng Family members in the crowd could move to leave quietly, the surrounding Black-Clad Guards had already surrounded them all.

"Lord Shen, what is the meaning of this?"

"It means nothing; it is just that until the matter is investigated clearly, no one is allowed to leave!"

Glancing at the ill-tempered Feng Family members behind, Shen Yu laughed softly, "What, has the Family Head already prepared an escape route for himself?"

"My Lord, do not misunderstand. My Feng Family is upright and fears no shadow; how could we do anything like running away? This is sheer nonsense!"

"My Lord, My Lord!" Just at this moment, the shouts of a Black-Clad Guard came from under the hole, and immediately after, he was pulled up.

"My Lord, under the hole..."

"What is under the hole?"

"My Lord, we discovered a large number of commoners and a group of martial arts experts inside. They seem to have been drugged, and their symptoms are all different."

"If this subordinate's guess is correct, they should be being used for drug testing. The tragic state inside is truly difficult to describe in words; it is truly, truly inhumane!"

"Is that so!" Coldly glancing at the Feng Family members, Shen Yu reached out toward the hole, "Please, Family Head, the time has come to prove the innocence of your Feng Family!"

"Lord Shen, seeing is not necessarily believing; my Feng Family truly knows nothing of this!"

"The family style of my Feng Family is well-known by word of mouth; everyone in the world knows it!"

"Go down!"

"Lord Shen!"

"This official orders you to go down!"

A terrifying aura stirred up monstrous waves; standing beside Shen Yu, Feng Mochen felt himself as small as dust, like a tiny sailboat invisible to the naked eye in the middle of the ocean.

As long as a tiny wave crashed over, he could be destroyed in these giant waves at any moment.

Facing such a terrifying Shen Yu and such a horrific aura, Feng Mochen knew he had no right to say no.

Gritting his teeth, he jumped into the hole. The other Feng Family members also jumped down one after another under Shen Yu's icy gaze.

At this time in the hole, the Black-Clad Guards were organizing everything they had found. A group of people inside had already been killed by Shen Yu's Sword Rain, but even their blood carried a medicinal scent.

"These are the Living Dead that your Feng Family concocted using drugs, right? Such drug-men are not easy to make. I presume that for every one that succeeds, quite a few people must be sacrificed!"

He glanced at these people; if he hadn't acted in advance, the Black-Clad Guards who had just come down would likely have been wiped out in the first wave of attacks.

This was a secret place of the Feng Family; how could they not arrange for experts to guard it? But under Shen Yu's sword, even the most powerful experts only had the fate of meeting their end.

"Lord Shen, what are you talking about? We don't understand!"

"You don't understand!" Casually grabbing one person, Shen Yu said coldly, "Drug-men with no consciousness, no emotions, no thoughts, who only know how to follow orders—and you say you don't understand!"

"This is just one of the places of your Feng Family; there are also some under the small lake of the Feng Family, and under the study of your Feng Family Patriarch. Am I wrong?"

"Lord Shen, this... I know absolutely nothing about what you are saying!"

In front of Shen Yu, Feng Mochen still maintained a look of complete shock, but in his heart, he was already certain.

This wasn't a traitor inside the family; they had sold even their underwear. It was over; their Feng Family was finished!

"Family Head, if you want people not to know, you must not do it!"

"Lord Shen, this is definitely someone framing us!"

"Whether it is a frame-up or not, you know in your own hearts!"

"My Lord!" At this time, the Black-Clad Guard who had gone down early hurried forward and said, "This subordinate has already asked the commoners and martial arts experts who were captured; they all said they were captured by the Feng Family, and some were tricked by the Feng Family!"

"On the surface, the Feng Family gives out medicine and provides medical aid, opening doors of convenience to experts in the Jianghu, but in secret, they transport these people here to test drugs on them."

"The Feng Family not only tortures them daily, but people die in misery every single day, yet more people are sent here every day!"

"In this one location alone, no fewer than several dozen people die miserably every day!"

"Bullshit, slander, this is absolutely slander!" Even while standing beside Shen Yu, Feng Mochen was still jumping with anxiety.

They had naturally heard of what kind of temper Shen Yu had; this pot of blame could not be smashed onto the Feng Family no matter what.

"My Lord, please see clearly, this is absolutely someone acting under the banner of my Feng Family; my Feng Family would never do such a thing."

"Feng Family Patriarch, you are, after all, the Feng Family Patriarch; in your own Feng Family, you still dare to say you don't know? With both human and material evidence present, you still want to deny it!"

"Men, seize everyone from the Feng Family; if there is any resistance, kill them without mercy!"

"Search carefully again for this official; dig three feet deep, no, dig thirty zhang deep if you have to, but find it for me!"

"Wait, Lord Shen, this, this is absolutely impossible!" At this moment, Feng Mochen pushed his acting to its peak, his whole person appearing shocked and terrified.

He seemed completely unaware of this, wearing a look of grievance and unwillingness at being wronged, making those who saw him want to give a thumbs up. Impressive, truly impressive!

"I know now, it must be a villain within the family, and this person's status must certainly not be low!" Frowning, Feng Mochen seemed to suddenly have a flash of realization, having figured everything out.

"Who did this? Stand out yourself! You are casting my Feng Family into a state of being unbenevolent and unjust!"
