"Cough cough cough..."
In an instant, Zhu Fei and Song Yan beside him couldn’t help but start coughing.
"Chief Qiu, there’s no need to be so anxious, right?" Zhu Fei thought to himself helplessly and couldn’t help but smile bitterly at Qiu Ruoxue, "After all, aren’t you going to deal with the situation at hand?"
As he spoke, Zhu Fei raised his hand and pointed towards the body of Elder Blood in the distance.
"Indeed, Ruoxue, you should first take care of the follow-up matters here. I’m well aware of your grandfather’s condition; he won’t have any problems in the short term."
At this ti, Song Yan also smiled and chid in, "Besides, Lan City is quite a distance from Jiangnan. Even if you want to take young friend Zhu Fei there, you should let him settle his own affairs first, right?"
Hearing Zhu Fei and Song Yan’s words, Qiu Ruoxue also ca to her senses, and a rare blush appeared on her beautiful face.
She released Zhu Fei’s arm and said with slightly embarrassed expression, "Zhu Fei, I’m sorry, I was too anxious just now."
Having said that, Qiu Ruoxue had already instructed soone to process the cri scene of Elder Blood’s body.
By now, her attention was clearly entirely focused on her grandfather’s illness, and she didn’t think much about Elder Blood’s death for the mont.
As they talked and walked, they soon arrived at the entrance of the Mu family villa.
Just as they reached the place, Zhu Fei imdiately felt an extrely malicious gaze directed straight at him.
Zhu Fei turned to look and discovered that the source of the gaze was none other than Mu Cheng, who had already been taken into custody by the police!
Almost subconsciously, a murderous intent rose from the depths of Zhu Fei’s heart.
This man must not be left alive!
With that thought, Zhu Fei’s hand suddenly produced a silver needle, and with a flick, the needle, nearly imperceptible, flew toward Mu Cheng.
Mu Cheng only felt a numbness in his chest and didn’t feel much else at the ti.
Only Zhu Fei himself knew that the silver needle he had just shot out was imbued with a trace of Geng tal Power, striking a fatal acupuncture point on Mu Cheng’s chest.
He believed that soon, Mu Cheng would die unnoticed.
At this mont, Song Yan also seed to sense sothing and turned his head to look at Zhu Fei thoughtfully.
Feeling Song Yan’s gaze, Zhu Fei also looked at him and said with a slight smile, "Old Song, I suppose you should have paper and pen here now, let prescribe a redy for the old injury on your body, what do you say?"
Hearing Zhu Fei’s unexpected suggestion, Song Yan was first taken aback, then he chuckled and nodded his head.
"In that case, I thank you, young friend Zhu Fei."
Neither of them brought up the previous incident, creating an implicit understanding between them within just a few words.
...
anwhile, in a luxurious estate sowhere else.
A lean middle-aged man with sinister eyes suddenly crushed a communication jade token in his hand.
With a "bang", he slamd his hand down heavily on the purple vine wood table before him.
The originally sturdy table of purple vine wood crumbled into sawdust under the man’s powerful slap, slowly drifting towards the ground.
However, just as the sawdust was about to touch the ground, it seed as if a mysterious force in the air solidified them in place.
Then, the sawdust began to rotate and eventually condensed into a ball of wood sawdust.
The middle-aged man suddenly raised his hand, and the ball of sawdust shot straight towards a security personnel across from him.
"Pfft pfft pfft...!"
The security guard barely let out a breath when his body was suddenly pierced into a sieve by that wooden ball, his eyes wide open in death, as he flew backward towards the wall!
With a thud, as soon as the guard’s corpse hit the ground, two n in cloaks imdiately entered, one from each side, quickly cleaning up the area before swiftly walking out.
From beginning to end, they showed no irregular reaction to the death of the security personnel, instead remaining eerily calm.
It was as if what lay dead before them was not a human but rely a chicken or a duck.
"Please, Hierarch, quell your anger. I will make sure to clarify the circumstances of Elder Xue’s death as soon as possible and seek revenge for him!"
At this mont, below the grand hall where the middle-aged man stood, a man in blood-red garnts, exuding strong Evil Qi, suddenly kneeled on one knee and respectfully addressed the middle-aged man as Hierarch.
"Hmm, Xue Li, do not disappoint . Elder Xue’s death in Lan City ans that there must be martial artists of at least the Power Realm in the city. Conduct your investigation discreetly for now and take care not to alarm the other righteous Ancient Martial Sects."
Upon hearing the Hierarch’s commanding words, the man nad Xue Li imdiately accepted the command with reverence.
However, he seed to think of sothing, hesitation montarily crossing his face.
"What’s the matter, Xue Li? Do you have a question?"
The Hierarch sitting above in the grand hall had a glint of red flash suddenly in his eyes, his voice taking on a chilling tone.
Xue Li’s heart skipped a beat, and without any further hesitation, he quickly said respectfully, "Reporting to the Hierarch, I’ve just rembered that our Sect’s Holy Daughter is currently in Lan City. May I request her assistance in the investigation?"
"Oh."
Hearing Xue Li’s words, the red light in the Hierarch’s eyes slowly faded, as he nodded slightly, "Granted!"
"Thank you for your consent, Hierarch. I will make arrangents imdiately to send people to Lan City."
Seeing the Hierarch nod, Xue Li bowed deeply to the ground, then rose to leave the grand hall.
But before he could fully exit the hall, the Hierarch’s voice reached him once more from behind.
"Let the Saint Heir Yan Chong accompany them. His cultivation has reached the Perfect Light Power Realm, and it’s ti for him to gain experience outside. It will also be a good opportunity for him to cultivate a relationship with the Holy Daughter, and when the ti is ripe, he can marry her."
Without waiting for Xue Li’s response, the Hierarch’s figure had already gradually disappeared.
When Xue Li ca back to his senses and looked up again, there was no sign of the Hierarch.
Still, he bowed deeply to the ground and respectfully said, "Yes, I will follow the Hierarch’s decree."
...
In Haihua District, in Pan Tingting’s room.
Over an hour ago, she received a text from Zhu Fei saying that the Murderer had been dealt with, and she and Tang ngyun could safely go back ho.
Pan Tingting did not suspect anything amiss and went back to their respective hos with Tang ngyun after receiving Zhu Fei’s ssage.
At this mont, she held her phone, playing a small ga on it listlessly, constantly muttering to herself.
"Stupid Zhu Fei, dead Zhu Fei, saying everything has been resolved, so much ti has passed, and he still hasn’t returned, not even another ssage for . Wait and see how I teach you a lesson..."
As Pan Tingting was muttering, she suddenly felt her phone vibrate and a blood-red ssage starkly appeared before her eyes.
Her expression changed instantly, the previously lazy look turning serious in a flash.
However, as soon as she opened the ssage and saw the content clearly, her hand holding the phone shook violently, her pretty face draining of color!
