None of the scouts wasted any ti to report this and soon the twelve great factions dropped this matter.
It wasn't that they weren't able to face a True Soul Realm Expert since they had their own True Soul Realm Experts, but rather they didn't want to send their True Soul Realm Experts out.
After all, even if each True Soul Realm Expert was a peerless expert of their generation, if they were to fight, there was the chance that they would be injured or they might even die.
A True Soul Realm Expert that was lost was one less True Soul Realm Expert that was available to them.
The strength of the twelve great factions were all decided by these True Soul Realm Experts, so they wouldn't risk these True Soul Realm Experts unless there was danger of their faction being destroyed.
Not to ntion the fact that this cloaked figure didn't seem hostile.
If this cloaked figure was hostile, there was no reason for him to hold back and only knock out their experts.
He could have killed them all and just left their corpses there, but the fact that he didn't showed that he was at least willing to cooperate. For the twelve great factions, this was the best scenario.
After all, another True Soul Realm Expert on their side would an a powerful ally.
There was of course the chance that he would betray them, but they were just comforting themselves by saying that he was willing to cooperate with them since they didn't want to think about the worst case scenario.
However for so people, this wasn't the biggest matter.
When Lei Feng received the report that Shi Yan was dead, the rage that he felt towards the first report about the cloaked figure disappeared. Then after a mont of being stunned, he roared out at the person who gave him the report, "What is this report? Explain to what you an by Shi Yan being dead?"
The person who had given the report was already kneeling down and didn't dare look up since he wasn't able to say a thing in response to this.
After all, how could he explain why Shi Yan was dead?
The only thing that he had found when he went to clean up were the corpses of the ten experts Shi Yan brought along and Shi Yan's headless corpse, along with his head thrown to the ground on the side.
He hadn't been able to believe his eyes the mont that he saw Shi Yan's corpse, but he had no choice but to report this back. He knew that he would die if he ran away, so at the very least there would be a chance to survive if he ca back.
Seeing that his subordinate had his head down without daring to say a thing, Lei Feng forced himself to calm down as he sat back in his chair, tapping his fingers on the armrest.
He began going through all the possibilities of what could have caused Shi Yan's death.
A trap by the Hunters Organization?
Or was it a trap by another faction?
Maybe it was even a trap from a faction of a different upper realm.
After all, Lin Fan's appearance had been just too sudden and he couldn't help thinking that maybe another upper realm was making a move. This also coincided with the cloaked figure that had suddenly appeared.
Maybe this was all connected and they were all working together?
Then what was their plan?
Was it all for the Ancient Era Ruins that they were planning to explore?
As these thoughts passed through his mind, Lei Feng knitted his brows deeper and deeper as a strong headache ca over him.
It seed more and more likely that his third idea was the one that was right as he began connecting all the various matters that had happened recently.
If that was the case, it seed like he would have to visit those people and make a report…
Of course, it never crossed his mind that Lin Fan had taken care of Shi Yan himself since he never believed that Lin Fan would be able to take down Shi Yan.
After all, Shi Yan was soone in the Child Soul Realm and Lin Fan was only in the Embryo Soul Realm. There was an entire major realm between the two of them, so how likely would it be that Lin Fan was able to cross that major realm to take down Shi Yan?
It would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens!
So he had thrown out that possibility from the beginning.
After thinking this through, Lei Feng stood up which caused the person kneeling on the ground to tremble. However, Lei Feng waved his hand and said, "Leave."
Like he was pardoned, the person on the ground imdiately cupped his hands and gave another bow before running off.
Lei Feng tapped on his wrist watch a few tis before heading to the door, but before he could leave, there was a voice that rang out behind him.
It was a female's voice that was quite sweet and tender, but if one listened carefully, they would hear the poisonous tone underneath. To put it simply, it was like listening to a poison apple.
That female voice said in a teasing tone, "Leaving so soon?"
The mont Lei Feng heard this, he imdiately knitted his brows.
In one smooth motion, he turned around and a spear ca out of his Storage Ring, appearing in his hand as he turned. The tip of the spear was placed at the neck of the girl behind him, but when he saw who it was, his hand trembled.
The girl who stood in front of Lei Feng saw this spear and revealed a smile, not showing any fear at all even though she had a spear placed right at her neck. After a pause, she said, "Xiao Lei, why are you so cowardly now?"
Lei Feng gave a snort in response to this, but he brought the spear down and asked, "Why are you here?"
The smile on the face of the girl finally disappeared as she said with a cold look, "The life jade of my precious little brother broke, you really think I wouldn't co at this ti?" Then her voice also dropped until it was cold enough to freeze the entire room as she said, "Xiao Lei, you better have a good explanation why my precious little brother is dead, or you might not leave this room alive today."
Lei Feng wasn't afraid of this girl, but he knew that it would be troubleso if he didn't deal with her, so he gave her the report.
The girl read through the report before saying in the sa cold voice, "Who is this Lin Fan? You better give all the details."
Lei Feng gave a sigh before he started explaining the situation.
Ten minutes later, the girl's face relaxed a bit, but it was still cold as she said, "So he's the one who killed my precious little brother? I want to kill him, you won't interfere, right?"
Lei Feng also wanted to kill Lin Fan because of everything that had happened, but unlike Shi Yan, this girl was not soone that he could easily deal with even though she was a full head shorter than him.
If one were to compare them based on appearance, people would have thought that this little girl was Shi Yan's little sister, but in fact, this little girl was actually Shi Yan's big sister, Shi Yi.
She was the greatest talent of the last generation for the Shi Family and soone that couldn't be ssed with easily.
The one problem with her was that she had a brother complex and she was very well known for being overprotective of her brother.
So while she had been smiling earlier, that smile was actually one that was forced out by rage.
After all, she couldn't believe that soone would actually kill her little brother when she made it clear to the entire realm what she would do if soone killed her little brother. Yet soone had actually done it!
Lei Feng was silent for a bit before saying, "It's not that simple."
Then he told her his theory and then said, "I have to report this up first before we do anything, otherwise we might really be in trouble."
Shi Yi looked at him with cold eyes as she said, "My precious little brother is dead and that is all you want to do?"
Lei Feng didn't back down as he said, "Do you really think any of this matters in front of their plan?"
This ti, Shi Yi had no choice but to back down when she heard those "people" being ntioned. After all, those people had the ability to wipe them out with a single wave of their hands, so she couldn't take them lightly…
After thinking for a bit, Shi Yi had no choice but to say, "Alright, go and make that report."
Then after a pause, she added, "I'll be the representative from the Shi Family from now on. I don't think you'll have an objection, will you?"
Lei Feng looked at her and gave a nod, "No objections here. Rather it's more assuring that you're here."
While Lei Feng was a bit unhappy with the way she had threatened him, he had to admit that it was indeed reassuring that Shi Yi was here since she was even more capable than Shi Yan. That was why before this, Shi Yi had been assigned to an even more important mission.
But now that she was willing to co and help him, he would be a fool not to accept this.
Shi Yi nodded before turning to leave without saying anything else.
Lei Feng didn't mind either as he headed out the door.
