"Chapter 171 Leaving (1) 'Kreis, tell me, what exactly happened?' Hert's low and hoarse voice said."

  "Why didn't you reply to the message?"

  When the sandstorm is gone, the world in the desert returns to its original state.

  The scorching sun hangs high, with sand all over the ground.

  The surroundings were empty and quiet.

  Hed and his party found nothing in the dust storm, no tiger-shaped crystal beast, no San Sanyou and Klaes, not even a trace of Grass's hunting squad.

  When Hurd and his party emerged from the sandstorm and found Klaatu, they saw him standing motionless in the sand, his lower half deeply buried in the sand.

  The lonely figure is indeed desolate.

  "I don't know." Kusu shook his head and said in a dispirited tone.

  As expected, Xiao San and Xiao Wu, as well as three other higher-ranking demigods, are already dead.

  In the end, there was only one brother left.

  "Xiao San, Xiao Wu... Is there anyone else? What exactly happened?" He De asked in a cold voice.

  Lost five upper house gods in an instant. Also can't help but get furious with He De. Didn't have a seizure on the spot. Already quite restrained.

  He doesn't have many other options for a higher-up Asian god to use.

  I thought I had subdued three upper-ranking gods, but in the blink of an eye, I lost five. Hert's heart was almost bleeding. He wanted to strangle Klaus to death.

  "I don't know. They're all gone." Grace said with her head down, weakly.

  "Kreis, tell us in detail what happened after you entered the sandstorm. Don't leave out a single detail." The elder Chel beside him seemed to have thought of something and asked with a surprised expression.

  Then Klayse went on to tell in detail what happened after entering the sandstorm.

  "Xiao Wu, the last time you were in contact with him, did he say that he saw that tiger-shaped crystal beast?" Zuo Mo asked with a serious expression.

  "Yes, but he didn't see Xiaosan."

  "When you arrived, neither Xiao Wu nor the Tiger-shaped Crystal Beast were there?"

  Yes.?

  ”?

  "Have you seen anyone else or other crystal beasts?"

  "Nothing was seen." Klaes said with a shake of his head.

  Elder Qie heard this and fell silent.

  "Cher Elder, could it be that Glaucus' squad is behind this?" Hurd asked from the side.

  "They were too busy to care, and besides, they didn't have the power. Five upper-ranking demigods aren't that easy to deal with. The one who made the move must be a top-tier demigod. When Klayse received the message from Little Five, it was also when we realized that the other three upper-ranking demigods were unreachable. He killed Little Five before we entered the sandstorm area. Only a top-tier demigod can kill so many upper-ranking demigods in such a short time." Chel shook his head and said with certainty.

  "But what's most worrisome is that green crystal tiger. Xiaosan, Xiaowu both mentioned the crystal tiger in the end, if this isn't a coincidence, then we're in big trouble."

  "Are you suggesting someone can control that emerald-green crystal beast?" Hurd exclaimed.

  "But is this possible?"

  Although He De had been in the cultivation world for a short time, only a hundred years, he still knew some common sense.

  Controlling the Crystal Beast is too unbelievable.

  If we could really control the Crystal Beast, it would be too terrifying. As Elder Chel said, being targeted by such an enemy would be a huge trouble, a calamity of heaven and earth.

  It's just a top-tier demigod facing dozens of green crystal beasts, and most would choose to turn around and run at the first moment.

  What's more, there are not only dozens of green crystal beasts in the blazing desert, but also tens of thousands.

  If he were surrounded by a large group of green crystal beasts, unless he was a god, his fate would be sealed and he would definitely be torn apart.

  "Yes, although that's unlikely. I rather hope this appearance of the Tiger Crystal Beast is just a coincidence." Cher said with a nod.

  "What is the purpose of the killer? Who would it be?" Hurd asked one after another.

  "I don't know. The organization has many enemies and anyone could be the one to make a move. Even within the organization itself, there are those who want to die." Elder Chel said with narrowed eyes.

  "It's not too difficult for the killer to find out our whereabouts, and if there's a mole within the organization, it would be even more convenient."

  "What are we going to do now? Are we going to stay in the Flame Desert, find that killer, or leave immediately?" Hede asked with a gloomy face.

  If Fruit Killer is indeed a top-tier quasi-god, then the only one who can counter this killer would be another top-tier quasi-god, Elder Chisel.

  The assassin took a sneak attack, no more than fearing the existence of Elder Chel, otherwise a top-level demigod wanted to kill a few demigods, where would it need to use so much force.

  It's also possible that the killer didn't want them to know his identity.

  "The flames of the desert are too vast, it's difficult to find that killer. He can follow us without being discovered, his hiding ability is no worse than mine, and may even be better." Elder Chel said expressionlessly.

  "The most important thing is that there are too many doubts in this matter, and for a while, I couldn't figure it out either."

  "It's wisest to leave the Blazing Desert immediately, as we don't know if this assassin has any other tricks up his sleeve."

  "How about the Grass squad? And that lower-ranking deity who asked if Tian was alive or dead, we don't know either." He Du said with a furrowed brow.

  "Let's not worry about the Grass team for now, once they return to Flame City, some things will naturally become clear. If they get some information at this time, it's too late for us to make a move, and if not, there is no need for us to take action either. The strength of the Grass team is not weak, more importantly, we also have to guard against that hidden killer behind us. As for that Qitian, the possibility of him being alive is small, but it's also impossible to rule out that top-level demigod will lend a hand to save him. After returning, through the organization's investigation into this matter, no one will stay in the Flame Desert without coming out, as long as he leaves, he will necessarily return to Flame City, and then we can send someone to follow up and investigate."

  Elder Chel thought for a moment and said slowly.

  "Alright." Hede sighed and said helplessly.

  "I'm staying." Klaas said with a stubborn expression.

  "You stay here, what can you do? Kill a top-tier demigod?"

  "Kreis, as long as you're still alive, you'll have the chance to avenge yourself." Hert said with a furrowed brow.

  "If you die, no one will avenge your brother. You should be clear about this. What you should consider is how to become a top-tier demigod."

  Having already lost five senior deities, Hedor didn't want to lose another one.

  "Yes." Klaas said with a red face and his head hung low.

  No matter who you are, I will definitely kill you, Klay swore silently.

  "Let's go," Hurd commanded.

  After finishing speaking, He De and his group began to retreat, heading in the direction of Lie Yan City. Their speed was very fast, and they disappeared in an instant.

  Not long after they left, Tian Xin appeared in the position where they originally stood, looking at their departing figures, with a flickering gaze.
