Chapter 91: Shameless Part One
About five figures quickly moved in the night, and they came from different directions. Like shooting stars, they quickly flashed by and disappeared if someone was looking out the window. When these people moved, they were almost completely silent.
Soon, some of them arrived. The first person who arrived in the alleyway was a middle-aged man. He was wearing a flying-fish robe, and he had a saber on his back. He slowly walked to the deep groove that was about a meter wide, then he squatted down to observe. After a moment, he stood up with a frown and walked to one end of the alleyway.
There was a corpse lying against the wall.
This corpse lost one of his shoulders, and there was a sword wound in his right chest. The injury that killed him was in his forehead. There was a small hole, and brain matter was still flowing out, meaning that this person only died a moment ago.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! A few other men in flying-fish robes appeared in the alleyway.
“There is only one corpse. It seems like people in the martial arts circle were fighting, and this person who is now dead put the deep and wide groove into the ground. It seems like he is great with staffs, but I didn’t find his weapon,” the man who got here first whispered to others.
The people who arrived later started to look for the other person in the alley, and the residents who were woken up by the noises all opened their doors to check what was going on before they were politely dissuaded from coming out.
“Royal guards are on duty. Please go back and rest; don’t interfere with our work.”
Although these royal guards were polite, their unique cold appearance and irrefutable tone made the residents obey. The residents were respectful toward the royal guards, and they all went back home.
A few more men in flying-fish robes rushed over in a few minutes, and a big team of patrolling soldiers arrived after ten minutes, locking down the alleyway. The policemen of Chang’an arrived last. After seeing the royal guards, they didn’t dare to go up and ask questions. Instead, they helped to secure the area on the outside.
“The deep and wide groove should be caused by a staff spirit created by internal forces.” A man in the flying-fish robe concluded, but his expression was still tensed up. “This dead man was at least a level 6 master to be able to turn his internal force into a weapon and use this powerful strike. Judging from the noises earlier, this fight only happened a moment ago. The corpse is still bleeding, yet the other person is gone. We should be afraid of the person who blocked this shocking strike and quickly retreated.”
“All members of the martial arts circle have reported to the city, and their factions and weapons are all documented. Do you guys remember a master who is great with staffs?” this man asked.
While everyone shook their heads, someone replied from afar with a cold voice, “Among those masters who have reported to the city and are above level 5, there are 31 of them who are great with staffs. However, only three of them could turn their internal forces into a staff spirit. One is working as an instructor at Royal King Yi’s residence, and the second opened his shop in the north of the city and is taking disciples; these two people could both be eliminated from our guesses. The last one only came to Chang’an about half a month ago. His name on the record is Heng Gun, and he came into the city with Spiritual Master Xiao of One Qi Daoist Temple.”
Hearing this, all the men in flying-fish robes bowed.
“Greetings, Chiliarch!”
Among the seven chiliarchs of the Royal Guard, one of them was known for his photographic memory. He could repeat everything that he had read.
All these seven chiliarchs had their unique abilities, and this chiliarch who had the nickname of Godly Eyes was Liu Duxiu.
Liu Duxiu walked into the alleyway and took a careful look with the help from the illumination of a torch. Then, he turned his head and said, “The Department Deputy’s residence is close by; go and invite him over.”
“I’m here.” The crowd separated, and Meng Wudi who was now single-armed and should be resting at his home walked over with a gloomy expression.
