Chapter 2086

Yunzhou was originally a small, insignificant town in Jiangdong.

The people there had lived ordinary, peaceful lives for generations.

Much like Ye Fan's hometown, Jingzhou, Jiangdong's presence was very weak.

However, after a certain Mr. Chu appeared in Yunzhou so many years ago, the development sped upvery rapidly, as though it had hitched a hike on a rocket.

A lot of rich and powerful people in the state started building their company headquarters in Yunzhou.

Why wouldn't they when someone powerful was supporting the city?

Chu Group had a near-total monopoly in Jiangdong. So many people formed connections with somepeople in the company hoping to get a piece of that juicy pie.

As time went by, Yunzhou's reputation subtly surpassed Jianghai's.

When Ye Fan's reputation was at its peak, everyone in Jiangdong believed that Yunzhou, the place hewas living in, was the center of power in Jiangdong.

Of course, the reputation of Yunzhou, Ye Fan's hometown, also grew because of him.

At the moment, it had practically developed into a tourist city. The massive development involved theentire city, making it the third richest city in Jiangdong.

However, peace didn't last long in those two cities.

In the third year after Ye Fan disappeared, a large number of foreigners poured into the country.

First, they went to Jingzhou and burned Ye Fan's hometown to the ground.

Yeyang, the place Ye Fan grew up in, had almost been decimated.

As a result, countless residents of the village became homeless.

A lot of the villagers lost their lives as well.

Of course, that was only the start of the bloody rampage.

Chu Group's branch company in Jingzhou suffered a similar fate.

The whole building was brought down by those people.

Nearly everyone who had a relationship with the Chu family and its businesses was dragged into themess.

Even though most people were able to avoid the disaster when they got the news in advance, somepeople were not so lucky.

After all, there were so many people. Hence, some were bound to be caught up in the conflict.

Ye Fan's childhood best friend's parents were those who couldn't escape the calamity.

Before that, many people wouldn't have thought that the Mr. Chu they were proud of would one day bethe cause of their deaths.

Yunzhou was under attack as well.

Many citizens in the city died, and Chu Group's headquarters building was reduced to ruins in theconflict.

In order to deal with the uninvited guests, the Commander In Chief of the Jiangdong military basepersonally led an army to chase them out.

Before the army was deployed, Lu Tianhe, the former Commander In Chief and Ye Fan's best friend,called the current Commander In Chief many times. He desperately tried to stop the army from gettinginvolved, but the new Commander In Chief ignored his warnings.

He stubbornly led the army into the city to wipe out the intruders.

The result wasn't difficult to imagine.

Jiangdong's army was completely decimated by the warriors of Chu Sect.

The Commander In Chief also died in the line of duty.

After learning the news, the command center really regretted the decision.

With no other choice, the higher-ups in the military allowed Lu Tianhe to clean up the mess inJiangdong.

Upon arriving at Jiangdong, Lu Tianhe reorganized the soldiers who managed to escape the slaughter.

He ordered the soldiers to retreat instead of fighting Chu Sect.

His plan was to withdraw from the fight altogether because there was no chance of success.

After all, Chu Sect, the most powerful family in the world, was the one who invaded Jiangdong.

There were many Supreme warriors and even a god realm master in the sect.

Even the most powerful martial arts institution in China was brought to ruin by Chu Sect.

Unless nuclear weapons were deployed, there was no way Lu Tianhe and his ordinary soldiers, whowere only equipped with machine guns, could win against Chu Sect.

“Are we just going to sit here and watch those invaders do as they please, General Lu?” a subordinateasked with resentment.

Lu Tianhe sighed. “This crisis has far exceeded our capabilities to handle it. It's not a fight any of youcan join as we wish. However, as powerful as Chu Sect's army is, it seems like they're only targetingChu Tianfan and everything related to him. At the moment, they haven't killed innocent citizens.”

Therefore, the military generally refrained from getting involved in conflicts between the factions in themartial arts world for a good reason.

After all, there was an unwritten rule in the martial arts world that no matter how deep someone orsome group's grudge was, they mustn't kill ordinary folks.

However, it would appear that Chu Sect had gone overboard with their most recent invasion.

Not only were they attacking martial artists in Jiangdong, but they were also harming many ordinarypeople who had a connection with Ye Fan.

“I'm sorry, my friend. I want to help protect your family too, but I don't have the power to do it,” LuTianhe muttered to himself as he stood at the top of a mountain with a sense of helplessness.

His gaze was fixed on Chu Sect's army as they gathered at Mount Yunding. There was nothing hecould do to help.

At that moment, he had already received news that Ye Fan's friends and family were brought to MountYunding by Li Er and the others.

Truthfully, he was shocked when he heard the news.

He had no idea what Li Er and Lei San were thinking because they knew the people from Chu Sectwould kill anyone who had connection with Ye Fan.

The best option that he could think of for those people was to scatter and escape the city.

If they left Jiangdong and even China that way, they stood a better chance of surviving.

Yet, Li Er and the others gathered all of them in a single place as though they were waiting for theenemy to take them all out in one go.

Jiangdong's army was completely decimated by the warriors of Chu Sect.

“Even though General Chu was brilliant when he was alive, he had asked the wrong people to protecthis loved ones before he died. It seems like his friends and family will be buried in the mountaintonight.” Sorrow filled Lu Tianhe's heart.

Who could've thought that after the unrivaled Mr. Chu died, his friends and family would suffer a terriblefate like that?

Even his hometown was destroyed.

Once he was gone, there was no one left to protect the place from his enemies.

“According to the scouts' reports, Chu Sect's army has arrived at Mount Yunding, General Lu. The finalattack will begin at any moment. However, no one is protecting the foot of the mountain,” a subordinatereported.

The agony in Lu Tianhe's heart intensified when he heard that.

“It seems like Li Er as well as the others have given up resisting Chu Sect's army and are waiting fortheir end to come. It sounds ridiculous that no one is even protecting the foot of the mountain, but it's

possible that Li Er knew it'd make no difference even if there were guards protecting the entrance.Even War God Castle had been crushed under the mighty Chu Sect. Without General Chu's protection,Jiangdong is but a fish lying helplessly on the chopping board.” Lu Tianhe sighed.

It was as though he could already see the blood of Ye Fan's friends and families painting MountYunding red.

At eight in the evening, Chu Sect's army launched its attack on Mount Yunding.

At that moment, a lot of people in Jiangdong stared in the direction of Mount Yunding with sadness.

Pity and sympathy swelled in their hearts as they watched.

However, just as they thought Mount Yunding was about to be destroyed by Chu Sect's army, a largeexplosion was heard.

A pillar of green light was seen shooting into the sky as it roared like thunder.

Then, the green light spread out and enveloped the entire Mount Yunding like a golden bell.

Even people from thousands of kilometers away could see the bright green light.

“W-What is this? Is this a technique Chu Sect is using to destroy the mountain?” Lu Tianhe, who wasstanding hundreds of kilometers away, was shocked by the sudden appearance of the light.

Without any delay, he sent dozens of scouts to investigate the situation.

After a while, he received a call from the front lines.

“What's going on? How's the situation at Mount Yunding? Is anyone alive?” he asked anxiously.

“The pillar of green light was shot out from inside Mount Yunding, General Lu! It had completelycovered the entire mountain. Chu Sect's army had launched multiple assaults, but they couldn't breakthrough the barrier. Li Er and all the other people on the mountain are still alive! Chu Sect can't breakinto the mountain!” his subordinate informed excitedly.

Joy and surprise were seen on Lu Tianhe's face when he heard that. “This must be a technique left byGeneral Chu! General Chu's power really is unrivaled. Even though he had been dead for years, he'sstill protecting Jiangdong.”
