618: Chapter 614: Princess Taiping 618: Chapter 614: Princess Taiping “Boss, Elira has failed her assignnt, please punish !”
Seeing the look of dejection on Ye Tian’s face, Black Widow quickly knelt down and said.
Yet, Ye Tian managed to smile bitterly as he pulled Black Widow to her feet!
“Black Widow, this is not your fault, it was my plan that was flawed and nearly cost you your life, why would you take the bla?”
As Ye Tian spoke, he couldn’t help but recall the eerie scene that unfolded tonight!
Whether it was when he defeated Mr.
Deng, or when Black Widow was pressuring Xue Yunfu, they both heard the strange sound of a flute!
It was because of this sound that Mr.
Deng and Xue Yunfu both went mad and their strengths greatly increased!
The frenzied Mr.
Deng, who even gave Ye Tian a hard ti, so what level of power did the person controlling Mr.
Deng possess?
“Boss, your generosity knows no bounds, knowing that Elira failed yet not punishing her and instead using your power to save , has left Elira feeling deeply ashad!”
Black Widow reproached herself, Ye Tian chuckled and said, “Black Widow, there’s no need for self-bla, and it’s not as though you ca back empty-handed, you did obtain so crucial information, arguably the most important piece!”
“The most important information?”
Ye Tian’s words turned Black Widow’s worries into joy, but Black Widow didn’t know what the “most important information” Ye Tian referred to was.
“Hehe, Black Widow, thanks to your information, I now have a reason to go back out there!”
With that said, Ye Tian got up and left.
Black Widow was stunned, unsure of where Ye Tian intended to go.
“Boss, should Elira accompany you?”
Black Widow asked, but Ye Tian simply waved his hand.
“Black Widow, you’ve just recovered from a serious injury, it’s not wise for you to tire yourself.
I’ll go alone this ti!”
Ye Tian commanded, leaving Black Widow with nothing to say.
Indeed, her wounds had just healed, but accompanying Ye Tian on a mission in such a state would probably be more of a hindrance.
Ye Tian then left the base of Night King Hall and once again headed towards the villa where Xue Yunfu lived!
Mr.
Deng, manipulated by soone else, had lost his mind; Xue Yunfu had been blasted into a pile of flesh…
No matter how you looked at it, the clues at hand seed to have been cut off, but this was not the case!
Black Widow’s interrogation of Xue Yunfu wasn’t fruitless, because from Xue Yunfu’s mouth, she obtained crucial information!
It was about the elderly man from Tiann whom Xue Yunfu had saved in his youth!!
The elderly man, to express his gratitude to Xue Yunfu, gave him a gift that would dramatically alter his outlook on life, obsessing him with the idea of joining Tiann and the quest for immortality from then on.
Such an important gift was sure to be well-preserved by Xue Yunfu, who probably wouldn’t even hand it over to Mr.
Deng for an opportunity to enter Tiann…
Therefore, that gift must be sowhere in Xue Yunfu’s house!
Ye Tian’s trip was precisely to find the gift given by the elder of Tiann to Xue Yunfu!
Unfortunately, Black Widow had passed out before she could tell all this to Ye Tian, otherwise, at that ti, Ye Tian and the martial artists from Night King Hall could have conducted a thorough search in the villa where Xue Yunfu lived.
The night was dark, but that didn’t matter to Ye Tian; after acquiring clairvoyant ability, his night vision had also greatly improved.
Instead of taking the public roads from the estate where Night King Hall was located to the villa where Xue Yunfu lived, Ye Tian opted for a more secluded path, which saved more ti than the public road!
Ye Tian’s Qinggong was extraordinary, far surpassing that of a car, and in just a few movents, he had traveled hundreds of ters away.
However, Ye Tian was not satisfied with his current speed; he ran wildly, his body dancing in the night sky, tracing a captivating arc…
“Look!
What is that!?
Soone is flying in the sky!”
“Damn!
Is that for real?
This isn’t a person, this is clearly a deity!”
“Honey, quick, co out with the Bull Demon King and look at God!”
…
Even though Ye Tian took an obscure path, it didn’t an no one saw him; people on the path all spotted Ye Tian’s figure, and they all worshipped him.
But Ye Tian couldn’t be bothered with these onlookers and accelerated beneath his feet, disappearing from their sight…
Minutes later, Ye Tian arrived at the villa where Xue Yunfu lived.
But in front of Xue Yunfu’s villa, there was already a crowd, and police lines had been set up around the villa.
The police were examining and taking photos within the cordoned-off area, while the surrounding onlookers talked amongst themselves…
“I heard that soone died in the villa!
Xue Yunfu is dead!
And it was a grueso death!”
“They say he was torn to pieces, and after he died they couldn’t even find the body.”
“Xue Yunfu was just an archaeologist, who could he have crossed to warrant such a brutal killing?”
“Could it be related to the tomb robbery in Jiangcheng a few days ago?”
…
From the discussions among the watching crowd, Ye Tian learned that the public was unaware of Xue Yunfu’s case of guarding and stealing from his own, and still regarded him as a good person dedicated to historical and cultural research.
Ye Tian felt sowhat helpless— he and his fellow Martial Artists had only been away for a short while, and the police had already arrived.
This ant that it would not be easy to enter Xue Yunfu’s villa to search for items.
With Ye Tian’s skills, it would have been easy to deal with these police, but that could have endangered the innocent bystanders, and Ye Tian did not want to be involved in such matters…
Therefore, Ye Tian could only watch from outside as the police continued to gather evidence inside the villa, not overlooking anything— bloodstains, footprints, fingerprints, pieces of clothing…
they left no stone unturned!
Ye Tian was worried about how to get inside the villa when suddenly, a figure erged from within.
——It was Wang Ke’er!
Ye Tian hadn’t expected Wang Ke’er to be among the police investigating the case.
He was imdiately overjoyed, confident that with his relationship with Wang Ke’er, he would definitely be able to blend in!
“Ke’er!
Ke’er!”
Ye Tian waved at Wang Ke’er and called out, and upon seeing Ye Tian, her face turned red.
“Ye Tian…
what are you talking about…?”
Although most people did not understand the significance of the words “Ke’er,” Wang Ke’er still felt very embarrassed.
Since Wang Ke’er had already spoken, Ye Tian no longer hesitated and went straight through the police cordon!
The other police officers, seeing that Wang Ke’er knew Ye Tian, did not stop him.
“Ye Tian, this is a cri scene, what are you doing here?”
Wang Ke’er asked displeased, as Ye Tian was not law enforcent personnel yet was causing a disturbance here.
Ye Tian quickly leaned in close to Wang Ke’er and whispered, “Ke’er, could you do a favor and not kick out?”
The two were close enough that Wang Ke’er felt sowhat embarrassed.
The surrounding police officers, noting Ye Tian and Wang Ke’er’s seemingly intimate relationship, did not attempt to remove Ye Tian from the cri scene.
“You…
stay back a little…
I agree, okay?”
Wang Ke’er pushed Ye Tian away slightly, her face blushing.
Of course, the reason Wang Ke’er did not send Ye Tian away was not because they were close, but because she was well aware that not only was Ye Tian highly skilled in martial arts, he also had powerful connections.
The case they were dealing with was probably not simple.
If they relied solely on police efforts, solving it would be difficult.
However, if Ye Tian participated, they might uncover the truth in a short period of ti!
“Ke’er, shall we go inside to talk?”
Ye Tian requested, and Wang Ke’er nodded, following him into the villa.
“Ke’er, how did you know sothing happened here?
And how did you all get here so fast?”
Ye Tian asked in surprise, as the ti between his killing of Xue Yunfu with a punch and his return had not exceeded two hours.
The villa where Xue Yunfu resided was in the suburban area of Jiangcheng, a one to two-hour drive from the city center.
Even if they hurried over imdiately after the murder occurred, they would have just arrived by now.
However, judging from the situation at the scene, these police officers had already been investigating for quite so ti, which didn’t quite add up in terms of ti…
“We ca here, of course, because soone reported the cri!
The report ca in at about eight o’clock tonight.
It was a telephone report, and the caller did not leave their na,”
Wang Ke’er stated truthfully, leaving Ye Tian stunned.
A report had been made around eight in the evening, which ant that soone had reported the cri while he was chasing Mr.
Deng.
Thus, after a two-hour drive, the police arrived to investigate Xue Yunfu’s villa, and they had been on the scene for about one and a half hours already.
What astonished Ye Tian was, who had made the call and what was the caller’s purpose?
“Ye Tian, could this matter be related to you?”
Seeing the puzzled look on Ye Tian’s face, Wang Ke’er asked directly, as Ye Tian’s appearance at this place and ti seed very suspicious.
“What do you think?”
Ye Tian replied ambiguously, and Wang Ke’er, sensing that there was more to his words, said, “Ye Tian, although I don’t know your standing in this case, I hope you prioritize the citizens of Jiangcheng.
This matter is quite unusual.”
Wang Ke’er sighed, her face showing helplessness.
“Ke’er, don’t worry!
Even though I’m not entirely clear about the whole situation, as long as I’m here, I will ensure the safety of Jiangcheng!”
Ye Tian stated resolutely, and Wang Ke’er felt reassured and was forthcoming with Ye Tian.
It turned out that ever since the ancient tombs of Jiangcheng had been robbed, the entire city had been on high alert.
The police had been tirelessly on call 24 hours a day!
On one hand, they aid to catch the tomb robbers as soon as possible; on the other, it was because there had been a series of unsettling events in Jiangcheng recently…
“Just a day ago, Jiangcheng was rocked by a dismbernt case, and to think that today, within Xue Yunfu’s villa, a similar case occurred!”
Wang Ke’er said, shaking her head helplessly.
Even though she was a police officer, she was still a young woman, and the gruesoness of the cri scenes had been quite disturbing to her.
