Chapter 247: Consequences
247- Consequences
Authors note:
Hey, here the term escort company in the Esbola escort company means the organization that works or provides services like transporting and protecting the goods that are sent to different places. Please, dont misinterpret it.
===============
The Shaan Village is about 60 kilometers from the town of Chans, so the geographical location is a great advantage for Orochi, as is it quite far from the Willow sword sect and that makes sure that no external influence will disturb Orochis plan.
It took only 3 hours for Orochis group to reach the Shaan villages entrance.
The Shaan village is a medium sized village, with an average population of 700-800 people, but due to its location being very close to the road, it has some trading business with the merchants, such that the village is developing at a moderate pace.
And within a few dozen years, it may even develop into a small town.
Since it is a village, there were very few inns to stay in. But lucky for Orochis group, they were able to get rooms without any trouble.
So, after the group got their rooms, they first ordered food to their rooms, as the sun was setting by now so they decided to have their dinner and have some rest.
Although they were not tired, they still decided to rest early and plan for tomorrows things.
Orochi felt that, since the Chan clan has issued a lockdown signal, no one should be able to get out of the town for today.
So, the probability of Alex Xaviers group traveling back to the Willow sword sect today itself is very low, so most probably they would start their journey tomorrow.
Hence, he too decided to take some rest and get up early in the morning.
.
A few hours ago,
Elder Jit Chan arrived near the hill with a group of people, where he saw more than dozen human corpses lying on the ground.
Seeing this, everyone in the group frowned.
Suddenly, someone from the group shouted,
Hey, look these people belong to the Esbola escort company. Look at the symbol engraved on their clothes.
Immediately, everyones attention moved towards the symbol that was engraved on the clothes, which indicated they were the men of Esbola escort company.
Seeing this, some people couldnt help but gasp in fear.
What happened here? Who killed them?
And from the looks of it, the opposing group did not even suffer any loss. Looks like a group of experts killed these guys.
.
.
A middle aged man, with a medium beard, straddled forward his horse and nodded towards the people who were bowing towards him.
The middle aged man got down from the horse, he frowned when he observed a dozen corpses lying on the ground.
He was dressed in purple clothes as he left his long blackandwhite hair untied. He was 2 meters tall and had a good build for his height.
With the respectful calling of the Elder Jit Chans group, it can be understood the middle aged man was the current patriarch of the Chan clan.
He asked in a deep voice,
What happened here? How come people of Esbola escort company are dead here?
His voice contained some anger as the owner of the Esbola escort company is his sworn brother, hence he showed a gloomy expression when he observed the corpses lying on the ground.
Elder Jit Chan answered in a respectful tone,
Patriarch, we dont know what happened here, as we have also arrived here just recently.
When we arrived here, there was no one except for these bodies. But looking at the clues here, it seems the Esbola escort companys group was ambushed by some experts and were killed within a very short period.
Hearing this, Chan Clans patriarch ordered in a deep voice,
Then I want to know who was behind these, order some people from the clan to investigate about this. And also send these bodies to the Esbola escort company and tell them whatever happened here.
Yes, Patriarch.
His followers respectfully shouted.
Then the Chan clans patriarch looked at Elder Jit Chan and asked,
Elder Jit, whats happening. Why have you ordered for the whole towns lockdown? And asked for clan emergency? All the factions that have come to participate in the auction are still in the town, although they dare not face our Chan clan in our own territory, but it is quite a pressure when all of them group up together.
Hearing this, Elder Jit Chan immediately recounted the issue of auction items being obtained by Orochi and how he escaped with a momentary distraction, etc.
Hearing this, the patriarch's expression was bad as he shouted,
Elder Jit, you let a Demi-Human stage kid escape, are you even cultivating properly, or is your strength a joke? Not to mention, you decided to go against someone who was able to reach the Demi-Human stage at such a young age? Is your head filled with dirt? If someone can reach such a level, it means that the persons background is quite terrifying, and you decided to offend him?
Do you seriously lack the basic common sense? You have offended someone possibly with a big background, without even thinking about the consequences.
And now because of your actions, what if that kid retaliates in the future? If that happens, our whole Chan clan will face retaliation which means our Clans prosperity or maybe even our clan will be destroyed. And all of this is because of your carelessness.
The Chan Clans patriarch reprimanded Elder Jit Chan angrily.
And Elder Jit Chans expression also turned ugly with shame and anger.
