The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor novel Chapter 1496

"Master, we’re not sure about this. After all, we did not witness it. The area is surrounded by nothing but forests, and there's hardly anyone around, that's why there's no way to investigate what actually happened!"

The old man gave a bitter smile, his expression hapless. "This means that the place that the six of them chose was truly suitable to trap and kill Nash Woods and the others. But as to why ferocious beasts suddenly appeared and killed the six of them, there is no clue!"

Here, the old man paused for a while before continuing, "Oh, right. We can't tell much from the damage at the scene since most of the battle probably took place in the sky." "What kind of beasts could it be, to be able to kill the six of them? Even if these beasts are at the peak of their true god status, surely they would also have difficulty killing all six of them. Even if my men couldn't defeat the beasts, some of them could have escaped if one or two held the beasts off, right? This means that the beasts are far more powerful than them!"

Joel's face had taken on a deathly pallor. His six fighters had died just like that. With that, the Pavilion of Skies would be weakest among the Four Ancient Clans.

"The Woods family definitely did not kill them. They do not have the ability. It’s not them!"

Lily’s face had also turned pale. She sat to the side, disappointed, and she seemed to be slightly stupefied. "We can only admit that they were lucky today. Before the six Elders could reach the ambush point, they must have run into the ferocious beasts and were killed!"

The more Joel thought about it, the angrier he got. He looked at Lily impatiently. "It's all your fault. If you weren't in such a rush to kill them, our six Elders wouldn't have died," he said. "I wanted to take them down in the danger zones. Now we've suffered a great loss!"

Lily was angry as well. "How can you pin all the blame on me? You agreed to this too. Besides, this was an accident. Who knows where such ferocious beasts came from?" she told Joel, huffing. "Besides, if we only act when they're in the Seven Dangers, how would you know which section of the Seven Dangers they're in? The place is huge. It would be difficult to find them!"

Joel clenched his fists. After a while, he looked at the old man with confusion." There's something wrong. If there were beasts, why are all the bodies still around? Don't tell me that these beasts don't like eating humans?"

Lily also came to her senses. If beasts had truly killed the Elders, they would not have just left the corpses there. Logically speaking, even if not all the bodies were consumed, at least a few would have been eaten.

She suddenly thought of something, and asked the old man, "Right. Where are their martial rings? And their weapons? Are they there?"

The old man shook his head. "We tried searching for them, but found nothing!"

"It must have been taken by humans. It's likely that they were not killed by beasts!" Lily was shocked. "But if it was not the beasts that did it, why are there claw marks and signs of maiming? If it was humans, why would they attack like that? But if it wasn't done by humans, why are their martial rings gone?"

The old man gave a bitter smile. "There's an explanation for that. I think the Elders must have run into the fearsome monsters first, and they were killed. Later, the three men from the Woods family saw them while they were passing by, and took their martial rings and other items! It must have happened like that. Only this can explain everything!”

"F*ck. If that's the case, not only have our men failed to kill those three, they even gave them plenty of treasures!"

Joel was so angry that he clenched his fists. His expression was a deathly sight.
