I Am Supreme Chapter 50 - Investigation. Someone is in the Room!

Chapter 50: Investigation. Soone is in the Room!

Translator: Whatsyourissue Editor: ICheah

The entire tavern was in pandemonium. The experts of the Xin Family each looked like their parents had passed, their expressions grim. Half the tavern was filled with mbers of the Xin Family. Under the guard of several dozen experts, they had actually allowed an assassin to take the third young master’s life so easily and leave unscathed!

The dozens of experts had ambivalent feelings; on one hand, they were upset; on the other, fearful.

How could they explain this when they got back? In actual fact, they need not have thought much about it. They could never explain sothing like this away

One of the doors to the rooms opened abruptly; as light poured out, a middle-aged man wearing white strolled out.

Xin Wandai’s dead body laid on the ground, his pair of opened eyes wide in disbelief and fear.

The middle-aged man in white walked over to where the body was. Lowering his head to look at Xin Wandai’s face, grief filled his face as he slowly extended his arm to close Xin Wandai’s wide eyes. He spoke softly, “Although I’ve long known that this day would co to you, it’s… still a little unexpected. Rest in peace, your older brother shall fulfill your vengeance!”

Although his face was filled with sorrow, it was also peaceful. His gaze on Xin Wandai was very calm and cold. It did not contain the grief for the death of a brother nor did it contain the relief for a fallen opponent.

“Check the wounds.”

“Match the mory of everyone around.”

“All guards of the third young master are to take a hundred spike whips each. You live if you can survive it; if not, you will be buried to keep the third young master company.” The middle-aged man in white said coldly.

“Thank you, second young master!” A hint of relief surfaced on the faces of Xin Wandai’s guards.

A hundred spike whips would naturally be a tornt but second young master’s words would also an that the punishnt for this matter had been executed.

He was protecting them.

If the punishnt was carried out when they had gotten back to the family, death would be guaranteed. By being punished here, they would still be punished when they went back but it would not be fatal.

“There’s only one wound - a hole on the front chest. The weapon is unidentifiable as the mark is tiny but it could crack the heart and destruct the mystical Qi easily. It is powerful; the killer’s mystical Qi is obviously very refined.”

“Third young master had a cultivation base of the third peak but his tightened muscles in imrsing his entire body with mystical Qi did not have any defensive effect, so the killer’s weapon seems to be an extraordinary weapon.”

“The assassin charged in and first killed Wang Fang by slitting his throat with a right-handed sword then chased after third young master. He attacked with a sword in his right hand but did not strike the target; his left hand held a short sword and continued attacking but it did not strike the target as well. That was how this weapon of offense ca suddenly from his sleeve.”

“This ans the assassin has at least three weapons.”

“Two on the outside, one in the dark.”

“The assassin’s physique is hefty and muscular, his voice rough and tone rugged.”

“The assassin’s movent is rapid, his mystical skill is very high.”

“Being able to kill the third young master with so many experts about, this person is bold but cautious; he would have all this planned out.”

“He appeared without a sound and disappeared without a trace; he must have already arranged his escape route.”

“This person must be familiar with the layout of the building.”

“The assassin’s cultivation base; although the two attacks earlier did not break through the third young master’s defenses, it could be his camouflage. The strikes were not lethal even if they’d successfully struck ho and third young master would have landed on the ground. The assassin would have lost his chance to strike as guards would definitely pile over him.”

“Those two strikes have missed for the third fatal strike!”

“The assassin’s cultivation base should be around the fourth to seventh heaven.”

“Lower than fourth heaven, one would not possess such audacity and sche.”

“…”

Everyone had gathered to recall what they saw and think with all their might. They were using all their ntal capacity at this mont at their only chance of redeeming themselves!

The middle-aged man who was also Xin Wandai’s elder brother, Xin Wanli, listened quietly with squinted eyes. The emotions in his eyes were ever-changing as he was contemplated the situation.

“Has ol’third offended anyone since he got here?”

Xin Wandai’s guards looked at each other at a loss. Offended anyone? It was a problematic question. Was there a day that Xin Wandai offend anyone? Was there a day he didn’t harass anyone? Was there a day where he didn’t seize a few beauties to bring back?

“Those he had beaten up, scolded, and harassed, list them down and investigate.” Xin Wanli issued his instructions item by item in a calm manner. “Won whom he had seized, list their family background and so on, investigate those as well.”

“Investigate Tiantang City’s martial artists one by one according to this assassin’s features. It shouldn’t be hard to find as this killer’s characteristics are so distinct.”

Xin Wanli coldly continued with squinted eyes, “I want results and the assassin’s identity by tomorrow morning. I want to see the assassin’s head by tomorrow night!”

“Yes, second young master!”

…

Yun Yang stumbled as he landed. Just the short intense battle had expended his mystical Qi.

Although Xin Wandai was a popinjay, he had still co from a historically noble family and had unyielding mystical Qi. With Yun Yang’s current abilities he could never hope to beat him. If it were not for him using the Divine Edge, it would have been an unfruitful night. However, Yun Yang had already expected this. That was why he had taken such a risk since he had sothing as powerful as Divine Edge. Otherwise, how would he be so brazen?

Yun Yang had not wanted to start his attack with Xin Wandai but he had been too presumptuous since he had arrived at Tiantang City. There were already more than a dozen won dying in his hands just within the short duration he had been here.

Since he was imputing the bla on soone else, Yun Yang simply had him bite the bullet instead.

It was already near midnight when he had gone back to the Residence of Yun. Yun Yang entered his room imdiately, one of his hands already on his belt ready to untie it and take off his clothes when both of his eyes stared wide in shock.

There was a person looking at him with a glare so icy it emitted a glow in the darkness of the room!

Goosebumps erupted all over Yun Yang’s body but he managed to chuckle. “What is the great Lady Ji still doing in my room at such a late hour? This is certainly unexpected.”

The person in his room was none other than Ji Ling.

However, Ji Ling tonight was different; her expression was cold as her gaze at Yun Yang glead in iciness.

She had completely hidden her aura; the fragrance on her body was also concealed with so unknown thod. “Young Master Yun indeed has many tricks up his sleeves.” Ji Ling said slowly, “I’ve been following you, watching you change your physique and appearance before killing people then co back like it was nothing. You aren’t even surprised when you saw in your room. Such impassiveness allows Ji Ling to understand that the young master is actually no ordinary person.”

Yun Yang’s heart did a flip.

Yet he said in mock surprise, “I don’t understand what Lady Ji is saying.”

His heart then cald down imdiately.

Is she just trying to trap ?

Yun Yang was confident that no one on this earth could track or follow his movents, especially with his ability to morph into a cloud, which was his and his alone!

Furthermore, his caution and alertness had always been his best guard of secrecy. It was impossible for Ji Ling to follow him and then track him; it was even more impossible for her to first get to his room after he had committed murder.

Although he had lingered outside for quite a bit and Ji Ling could have done it in that duration of ti, it was still impossible for her to know his every move.

“Don’t understand?” Ji Ling said coldly, “Could it be that Xin Wandai did not die at your hands?”

Yun Yang was stunned at once and stood up right away. “Xin Wandai? Did he die? What happened?”

Surprise was written all over his face.

Ji Ling’s gaze lingered on Yun Yang’s eyes and she said slowly, “He’s dead. You killed him.”

Yun Yang rolled his eyes and laughed without humor. “My great lady, it’s fine if you’re scaring with these words. Please don’t simply utter them outside. I can’t afford to provoke the Xin Family. Such a colossal accusation! Is there actually soone in Tiantang City who dares to kill Xin Wandai?”

Ji Ling’s gaze finally turned doubtful as she questioned, “It’s really not you?”

This young lady is really trying to trap .

Yun Yang rest his forehead on his palm and said helplessly, “My great lady… How free must I be and what sort of cultivation base must I have to be able to kill Xin Wandai? Besides, he’s promised the responsibility to ensure the safety of Yun Family… Sigh, you’re unbelievable!”

“You don’t know this for sure,” Ji Ling retorted.

Yun Yang replied while rolling his eyes, “I’m just being a carefree young master. I’ve just borrowed my master’s reputation to suppress the trouble with Xin Wandai, why would I go provoke him? We have no grudge against each other, does my brain look like it has a hole for to provoke him?”

“You brain does have a hole!” Ji Ling said in a huff. “You think it’s not done by you if you said so? Why weren’t you in your room just now?”

Yun Yang was totally unworried now as he put on an expression of being pained by a headache. “Lady Ji this is my house. I can do whatever I want in my own house! If I want to be in my room, I stay in my room; if I don’t want to be in my room, I can go out to look at the moon, go to the lavatory, take off all my clothes and bask under the moonlight while exposing my manhood. All these are alright, aren’t they?”

“Rogue!” Ji Ling flushed in embarrassnt before keeping quiet.

Yun Yang had finally gotten back the upper hand as he imdiately said aggressively, “Now I don’t understand this. Lady Ji, the great pure lady, ca to my room in the middle of the night - forget the fact that you barged in, you actually accused of killing people! Where is the justification in this?” Yun Yang glared with a look of righteousness on his face.

Inwardly, he was thinking of only one thing, “How did Ji Ling co in? I know I wasn’t at ho but it’s a little scary that even Lao i and Fang Mofei didn’t notice it.”

Although he did not manage to determine Ji Ling’s real cultivation base from the beginning, she should not be at a higher level than Lao i and Fang Mofei!

How had she co in?

It was certain that he was no opponent against this young lady though.

Ji Ling was flustered as she retorted forcefully, “I’ve only co to look in on you since I think you’re suspicious!”

“Look in on … It’s a good thing that you’re not a defiler! If you were one, I would be in danger tonight.” Yun Yang patted his chest in lingering fear.

“Defiler…” Ji Ling was fuming. “With your ugly looks…”

Her heart was saying, “True enough. This guy is so handso; it’s not impossible for him to have lured a few female defilers…” As the thoughts crossed her mind, she could not help but scold herself, “What am I thinking?”

Yun Yang crossed his arms, a look of condescendence on his face as if questioning a criminal. His gaze at Ji Ling was aningful when he said, “Speak, how did you enter?”

At this mont, their positions in their questioning ga had completely switched around!
