Off to the side, when Xue Wu heard what Ding Fan said, a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes. His gaze locked firmly onto Zhuge Qing’s body, and a shocked voice immediately came out of Xue Wu’s mouth:

"Second Boss, besides the disciples under my command, do you also have quite a remarkable squad in your hands?"

After hearing Xue Wu’s words, Zhuge Qing spoke coldly in a flat tone:

"That’s right. During all this time in the Skeleton Sect, I have indeed built up quite a bit of power..."

When Xue Wu heard Zhuge Qing’s words, a look of sudden realization surged into his eyes, and his gaze locked firmly onto Zhuge Qing’s body.

Seeing this, Ding Fan spoke very calmly:

"Enough, there will be plenty of time for that kind of talk in the future. Xue Wu, let me first see just how strong the strength you command really is!"

After hearing Ding Fan’s words, a sharp light immediately burst out in Xue Wu’s eyes. The corner of his mouth trembled slightly as he slowly opened his mouth toward Ding Fan:

"Alright, Brother Ding, since that’s the case, I’ll let you witness the strongest force in the entire Skeleton Sect!"

When Ding Fan heard Xue Wu’s words, an expectant look instantly filled his eyes. He slowly nodded at Xue Wu.

"Good! Let me see just how fierce this strongest force of the Skeleton Sect really is!"

After hearing Ding Fan’s words, Xue Wu shook his sturdy body and shot out of the room. A terrifying aura gushed out from Xue Wu’s body.

"Men! Assemble, all of you!"

As Xue Wu’s domineering shout spread out over the entire area, waves of violent ripples rolled out from his mouth.

Following the spread of Xue Wu’s voice, bursts of raging airwaves suddenly roared through the air, and violent tremors rose up from the ground.

When Ding Fan sensed this, a look of shock immediately surged into his eyes, and his gaze locked firmly on the space before him.

Not long after, squads of black-robed men swiftly swept over. On the robes of every black-robed man, a blood-red Skull Head was carved, and from each of their bodies, a ferocious wave of aura erupted.

When Ding Fan sensed this, a look of astonishment instantly surged into his eyes, and his gaze locked firmly onto the many black-robed men rushing toward him.

Rows of sturdy black-robed men stood neatly before Xue Wu, and a sky-piercing bloodthirsty killing intent surged out from every black-robed man’s body.

Seeing this, a look of horror immediately flooded Ding Fan’s eyes, and his gaze locked firmly upon the bodies of the many black-robed men.

As each black-robed man arrived, a look of surprise appeared in all their eyes, and all their gazes locked firmly on Ding Fan’s body.

Xue Wu slowly stepped forward, and a calm voice immediately came out from his mouth:

"Everyone, next I want to introduce someone to you all, the person standing beside me!"

After the black-robed men heard Xue Wu’s words, looks of astonishment all surged into their eyes. To be honest, from the moment Ding Fan and the others entered here, their hearts had already been full of doubt. Now, after hearing Xue Wu’s words, all their gazes converged on Ding Fan’s body.

Seeing the crowd’s reaction, Xue Wu slowly opened his mouth and said to everyone:

"Everyone, the one standing by my side is Brother Ding, Ding Fan. From today onward, he will be the big brother of all of us!"

When the crowd heard Xue Wu’s words, looks of shock flooded all their eyes, and all their gazes focused on Ding Fan’s body. They discussed in great surprise:

"Captain Xue, what do you mean by this? We are extremely loyal to the Skeleton Sect—are you asking us to betray the Sect Master?"

"Exactly, Captain Xue, what do you mean by this?"

Sharp looks surged into all the eyes around them, and extremely violent waves of aura gushed from everyone’s bodies.

Seeing this, Ding Fan slowly turned his head toward where Xue Wu was standing.

After hearing everyone’s words, a sharp light flashed in Xue Wu’s eyes. Truth be told, he understood their reaction all too well. The corner of Xue Wu’s mouth slowly curled up as he spoke slowly to the crowd:

"You’re all misunderstanding me. While I introduce Brother Ding to you today, I also have a very important piece of news to tell everyone!"

When the crowd heard Xue Wu’s words, looks of suspicious uncertainty flooded all their eyes, and all their gazes converged on Xue Wu’s body. Calm voices immediately came out from their mouths:

"Captain Xue, go ahead, what exactly has happened?"

"Yeah, Captain Xue, what exactly happened? We really want to know right now!"

After hearing everyone’s words, Xue Wu’s eyes flickered slightly. The corner of his mouth quivered, and a flat voice immediately came out from his mouth:

"The Sect Master is dead..."

When the crowd heard Xue Wu’s words, looks of horror flooded all their eyes, and they discussed in utter shock:

"Captain Xue, what did you say? The Sect Master is dead—how is that possible? Is this news real? With the Sect Master’s strength so powerful, how could he possibly die!"

"Exactly, Captain Xue, you’re not lying to us, are you? Did you make up this lie just so we would accept this Ding Fan?"

After hearing everyone’s words, a grave expression surfaced in Xue Wu’s eyes, and his voice immediately came out from his mouth:

"Everyone, you all know full well how loyal I, Xue Wu, am to the Sect Master. At the start, even I found this matter hard to believe, but unfortunately, this is the truth. Only after verifying it from all sides did I finally confirm this matter." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

When the crowd heard Xue Wu’s words, looks of horror filled all their eyes. The corners of their mouths trembled slightly, and incredulous voices immediately came out from their mouths:

"Captain Xue, what exactly happened? How could our Sect Master just die for no reason?"

"Exactly, Captain Xue, what on earth happened? How is it that we never heard any news about the Sect Master?"

After hearing everyone’s words, a grave expression also surfaced in Xue Wu’s eyes, and his voice immediately came out from his mouth:

"The Sect Master was killed by someone... Do you still remember where the Sect Master went the last time he left us?"

When the crowd heard Xue Wu’s words, looks of contemplation flooded all their eyes, and voices immediately came out from their mouths:

"The Sirius Tomb?"

"Could the Sect Master’s death be related to that Sirius Tomb?"

The crowd discussed in great shock. After hearing their words, Xue Wu’s eyes flickered slightly. The corner of his mouth quivered, and his voice slowly came out from his mouth:

"That’s right, it was in the Sirius Tomb that the Sect Master was framed by others. In the end, the Sect Master lost his life in that Sirius Tomb!"

When the crowd heard Xue Wu’s words, looks of horror flooded all their eyes, and they discussed in great shock:

"Who exactly plotted against the Sect Master? With the Sect Master’s strength so powerful, how could someone succeed in ambushing him so easily!"

"Exactly, the Sect Master’s whereabouts were so secretive. In the entire Skeleton Sect, not many knew of his movements. How could someone have succeeded in ambushing him in that Sirius Tomb?"

After hearing everyone’s words, Xue Wu’s eyes flickered slightly, the corners of his mouth trembled, and Ding Fan said very calmly:

"Based on my analysis, it is highly likely the doing of the Skeleton Sect’s Four Great Elders. Only they have such overwhelming power!"

When the crowd heard Ding Fan’s words, looks of horror flooded all their eyes. Their stunned gazes fixed on Ding Fan’s body, and disbelieving voices immediately came out from their mouths:

"The Four Great Elders? How is that possible? How could they lay such a vicious hand on the Sect Master?"

"Exactly, the Four Great Elders are people of our Skeleton Sect—how could they strike the Sect Master so ruthlessly?"

Xue Wu stood to the side. After hearing everyone’s words, a calm voice immediately came out from his mouth:

"There’s something you all don’t know. Those Four Great Elders have long harbored thoughts of rebellion. Not to mention, with a temptation like the Sirius inheritance before them, how could the Four Great Elders not be moved?"
