Fade Chen asked and learned that these women and children were villagers from nearby villages.

They were all directly robbed by bandits who wiped out the village.

The young and middle-aged men in the village either surrendered as coolies or were killed.

Because the old man didn't have much ability to work, no one was left behind, and he was directly killed by Zhou Yue.

The remaining women and children were regarded as property by these bandits and locked up in the cave, so they survived until now.

Of course, it's just about being alive.

These people, the women are almost naked and covered in bruises, obviously they have been harmed many times.

The children were so skinny that almost only a skeleton remained.

Even though Fade Chen had experienced many things, he couldn't help but tremble when he saw such a miserable scene.

He took out a qi-nourishing pill, handed it to his subordinates, and ordered: "Crush this pill into water and feed it to these people.

Then send them back to the city first. "

These people have been locked up for too long, and their bodies are almost all in a state of extreme weakness.

Fade Chen used Yangqi Pill to replenish their bodies and recuperate them.

Otherwise, even if these people survive, they will be disabled or seriously ill in the future, and they will not live long at all.

After a lot of effort, Yulai Peak was cleaned up.

Next, Fade Chen started down to business.

Detect the spirit veins, arrange the formation, put in the firefly beads, and finally complete the entire firefly formation.

As a result, the entire Yulai Peak was also shrouded in a layer of hazy light, and the spiritual energy in the mountain began to gather in the firefly beads.

Faintly, Fade Chen felt that special aura again, and it also gathered in the direction of the capital.

At the same time, the firefly bead on Yulai Peak was vaguely connected with the one in Yang's mansion, and the spiritual energy seemed to be faintly connected.

Feeling this subtle change, Fade Chen became more certain about Yan Xiao's "Firefly Project".

It seems that the whole Firefly plan should be similar to what Fade Chen guessed.

It is to absorb the aura of Yaori Kingdom and even the entire Great Flame Realm, connect them into a network, and finally gather them in one place.

Then, Yan Xiao refined and collected the spiritual energy, and finally completely controlled the Great Flame Realm.

Thus formally entering the realm of control and becoming the supreme god of the Great Flame Realm.

Finally checked the firefly array again, and after confirming that there was no problem, Fade returned to the city with a mighty team.

Along the way, the team marched unhurriedly, and everyone was more relaxed.

When the city wall appeared in front of everyone, the whole team couldn't help cheering.

After all, there were no casualties in this expedition, they returned with a big victory, and they could get a victory reward after returning. Many soldiers were in such an easy battle for the first time, so they were naturally in a good mood.

However, when the team moved forward for a certain distance, a puff of black smoke suddenly appeared in everyone's eyes.

Indistinctly, there is also a smell of burnt meat, wafting from the black smoke.

"What is it burning?

Such a big puff of smoke. "

"Barbecue?

It's all burnt! "

"No, why do I feel a bad smell, how do I eat this?"

... The team continued to move forward after discussing, and then everyone saw a team in armor forming a circle.

In the center of the circle is the big, smoking fire.

Seeing this armored team, many soldiers in the team were shocked.

"That's General Yang's personal guard!"

"Why did the guards appear here?"

"The guards are here to barbecue, won't they?"

... Fade Chen, who was originally in a relatively relaxed mood, heard these discussions, his eyes suddenly sank, and his expression turned cold.

"It's not right!"

"Go and see, what's going on in front?"

Fade Chen gave an order.

A guard immediately whipped his horse and ran over at a faster speed.

Fade Chen led the team and continued to march unhurriedly.

However, the closer he got to the fire, Fade Chen felt the burnt smell in the air getting stronger, and his eyes sank.

At this time, the guard rode back and came to Fade Chen.

"God, Lord God-" The guard's face turned pale, his lips trembled, and his expression was very ugly.

"What's going on, what happened?"

Fade Chen asked coldly.

The guard trembled and said: "That's General Yang's personal guard, they are burning the corpse."

"What!"

Fade Chen was surprised.

The soldiers who were discussing the barbecue just now were all startled, and then their faces changed, and their stomachs were overwhelmed, and they vomited while clutching their stomachs.

"What corpse?

whose body? "

Fade Chen asked coldly.

The guard's voice trembled, "Yes, they are the bodies of those women and children from Yulai Peak just now."

"What!"

Hearing this, Fade Chen couldn't help raising his voice, his face full of shock.

"What exactly is going on?

Didn't I have someone send them back to the city? "

The guard said in a trembling voice: "Our people sent those people outside the city, but they were stopped by these pro-guards and said that they would conduct inspections."

"Afterwards, they said they found out the spies of the bandits, so they killed them all, and now they are disposing of the corpses."

After hearing this, Fade Chen was really angry. With a sullen face, he whipped his horse and rushed towards the guard soldier.

When he came to the fire and passed the soldiers of the pro-guards, Fade saw corpses piled on the ground next to the fire. There were many criss-crossing wounds on the corpses.

Some of the wounds were still bleeding out.

Obviously, these people had just been killed.

As for the soldiers of the pro-guards around the fire, the blood on the big knife in their hands was extraordinarily bright.

"Who is the captain, come out for me!"

Fade Chen sternly shouted with anger in his eyes.

The members of the pro-guards were stunned for a moment, and all turned their heads to look at Fade Chen.

However, all of them looked serious, but kept silent, and no one answered Fade Chen's question.

Seeing this, the guards around Fade followed up and shouted, "This is Mr. Chen Fei, the envoy from Wangcheng."

"Master God made me ask you something, didn't you hear me?"

Finally, after hearing the words of God Envoy, the personal guard finally reacted.

A middle-aged burly man stood up, "Return to God Envoy, I am the captain."

"You are the captain!"

Fade Chen glanced at this person, and then asked sharply, "Tell me, what's going on?

Who told you to kill these people? "

The captain replied loudly: "Report to God Envoy, these people are the spies of bandits, and it is our duty to kill the spies."

"Who told you that you were spies?"

Fade Chen questioned.

The captain was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "General Yang checked it."

"General Yang! How did he verify it?"

Chen Fei continued to ask.

This time, the captain was speechless.

After all, when Yang Xiong gave an order, he would follow the rules, and as for other things, he didn't have to think about it at all.
