"Is that so~"
Just as Song Yu and over ten people were confident of victory, a chilling voice echoed from not far from the villa. A man had, at some unknown time, ghost-like appeared in the area.
"Who!"
"Who are you!?"
The two War God experts who had been protecting Song Yu immediately turned their vigilant gazes to the figure who had appeared. The more than ten subordinates swiftly formed a protective circle around Song Yu, as their primary mission was to ensure his safety, not to engage in conflict.
"You two protect the young master; this person is ours!"
The two War God powerhouses stepped forward, their bodies exuding a terrifying aura of danger. They stared at the man before them, on high alert. Their instincts told them this individual was powerful.
"Yes, esteemed elders!!"
The over ten Song family experts responded with solemn respect. Then, they began to guard Song Yu, preparing to find an opportunity to leave.
"Since you've chosen to make a move against the Hall Master, do you think you can protect him?"
The newcomer sneered at the scene. This person was none other than Wei Yi, a peak War God realm expert. As Wei Yi's voice fell, more than ten figures reappeared around them.
That's right, more than ten figures!
The two Song family War God powerhouses were stunned. They discovered that the ten-plus figures who appeared were all at the same realm as them—the War God realm. At this sight, the two froze in place, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.
"More than ten War God powerhouses, this... is impossible!!"
Despair!
Upon seeing the more than ten War God powerhouses, the two Song family War God experts felt like dying. They simply couldn't believe that such formidable experts could exist in a mere Tianhai.
They knew that if these numerous War God powerhouses, along with that unfathomable individual, were to combine their strength, even the entire might of the Song family might not be enough to defeat them.
"Damn it!"
"Who exactly are you??"
The two War God powerhouses were truly terrified at this moment. They understood that they wouldn't even have a chance to escape in front of these people.
"You are not qualified to know."
Wei Yi looked at Song Yu and his entourage. Although these individuals were from the Song family of the imperial capital, they held no deterrent whatsoever against their Underworld King Hall. After all, they had already lost four of their Archon level experts during their recent venture into the Dark Church, and those were terrifying existences at the peak of the War God realm.
"Kill them, leave none alive!"
A chilling command was issued. The next moment, the more than ten War God powerhouses attacked in unison. Song Yu's composure vanished completely. With a terrified voice, he exclaimed, "No, you can't kill me! I am the future successor of the Song family in the imperial capital! If you dare to touch me, my father will not let you go!"
"Utterly foolish."
With a swish, a blade flashed. Before Song Yu could utter another word, his throat was sliced by the blade. Blood gushed out, and with disbelief and unwillingness, he transformed into a corpse, his consciousness scattering like a collapsing mountain.
"Young Master, no~~"
"Pfft~~"
Following that, blood splattered throughout the villa. In an instant, Song Yu and his entire entourage, including the two Song family War God experts, perished. A thick scent of blood filled the air. Had an ordinary person been present, they would have immediately vomited uncontrollably.
"Dispose of the bodies, then withdraw!"
Wei Yi gazed at the more than ten Song family experts lying dead on the ground, his expression unwavering, as indifferent as before.
A few minutes later.
Wei Yi led his group of Hall Master guards away. In the villa, there was no trace of the bloody scent, not even a drop of blood could be found. This demonstrated the extraordinary skill of Wei Yi's subordinates in handling the bodies.
It was as if... nothing had ever happened!
And, most importantly, could you believe that all of this had transpired in less than ten minutes?
Song Yu and his entourage from the Song family met their bloody end on the spot, and no one knew.
Even Song Yunlong had no idea that Song Yu had come to Tianhai. Song Yu knew that his grandfather disapproved of Song Qing and did not want to leave a bad impression on him.
As a result, for a long time afterward, the Song family didn't even know who had killed Song Yu, and the Song family thus became a laughingstock among the imperial capital and various other powers.
A joke?
The Song family, one of the four great families of the imperial capital, had two young masters killed successively, and the Song family didn't even know who their enemy was. It was indeed ridiculous.
Of course, some people realized that the Song family... had likely offended someone they shouldn't have. After all, eliminating the Song family's two young masters so cleanly was something even the four great families of the imperial capital couldn't achieve.
..........
Half a day later.
The imperial capital, Song Estate.
"What did you say!"
In the study, an elder in his sixties was contemplating the situation in the imperial capital. This person was none other than Song Yunlong, the head of the Song family. Upon hearing the news delivered by his subordinate, he was struck as if by lightning.
"The eldest young master cannot be contacted, and the situation is the same as with the second young master."
Upon hearing this news, Song Yunlong could no longer remain calm. After all, Song Yu was different from that disappointing second grandson. For years, Song Yunlong had groomed this grandson to be the next family head.
Over the years, he had invested immeasurable effort in Song Yu, and Song Yu had not disappointed him, performing excellently in all aspects. Especially at such a young age, he had already become a half-step War God expert, with limitless potential for the future.
But now... his eldest grandson had disappeared just like his second grandson. How could he remain calm? If something happened to Song Yu, their Song family would be without heirs.
He absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen. If Song Yu were indeed killed, he, Song Yunlong, would move heaven and earth to grind the murderer into dust and avenge his eldest grandson.
If Song Yunlong's reaction were to be known by Song Qing, one wondered if he would crawl out from hell to fight this old man. Damn it, they were both grandsons, yet the disparity in treatment was so immense.
This matter also affected the family of Song Yu's uncle.
The reason for this was that Song Mingyu was the father of both Song Yu and Song Qing. This was the villa where Song Mingyu, the eldest son of the Song family, resided.
Sun Qianmei slowly woke up from her unconsciousness. The first thing she saw was Song Mingyu, whose face looked ten years older. The reason for this was obvious; both of them had learned that their eldest son's whereabouts were unknown, and they could not contact anyone in his entourage.
According to past precedents, in such a situation, their eldest son, Song Yu, had likely been killed, which was why Sun Qianmei had fainted.
"Qianmei, how do you feel? Are you alright?"
Song Mingyu's eyes were filled with worry. With both his sons in such a predicament, how could he possibly be in good spirits?
Sun Qianmei looked at Song Mingyu, and then her face contorted into a grimace. "Song Mingyu, I warn you, no matter who it is that has targeted our two sons, I will make them suffer a fate worse than death, to pay tribute to the spirits of Xiao Yu and Xiao Qing in heaven!!"
Sun Qianmei's face was filled with malice. The Sun family was also the most powerful family in the imperial capital, besides the four great families. Currently, the head of the Sun family was Sun Qianmei's father. No one knew what this woman, who had lost two beloved sons, would do when driven to madness. And Sun Qianmei's subsequent actions would drag her maternal Sun family into an abyss of suffering.
