Chapter 91: Shameless Part Two
After everyone bowed, Meng Wudi waved his hand and asked, “What did you discover?”
Liu Duxiu stood up and walked into the alleyway where the one-meter-wide deep groove was. He stood still and said, “The other person was standing here. When that powerful staff strike came at him, he didn’t dodge. The staff spirit was shattered when it was about a meter away from this person. It is impressive. Sir… someone went against the rules and didn’t report to the city after entering.”
Meng Wudi nodded as a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.
“I arrived earlier, and I saw the other person.” Meng Wudi heaved a long sigh and said in defeat, “But this person’s light-body skill is great; I wasn’t able to catch up.”
After Meng Wudi said this, everyone gasped. Meng Wudi’s cultivation strength ranked in the top in the Royal Guard, and he was known for his light-body skill. However, the other person escaped right in front of him; it just went to show how powerful the other person was.
“I suspect that the person who escaped is related to the case of the Ministry of War.” Meng Wudi ordered. “Bring the corpse back to the headquarters. Also, search within 15 kilometers and don’t startle the residents. Come back before the sun comes up. Tell all the soldiers guarding the gates to carefully inspect all men in white… also women in white. I’m going back to report to Captain.”
In reality, Meng Wudi didn’t get a clear look and didn’t know if that person was male or female.
“Ok!” All the men in flying-fish robes bowed and accepted the order, and they quickly left the area.
Then, Meng Wudi frowned as he looked at the corpse that died with his eyes open.
Just as Meng Wudi was about to rush back to the headquarters, a horse-drawn carriage stopped in front of the alleyway. He saw the groom beckoning at him, and he quickly ran over while his expression changed.
The symbol of the Royal Guard was on the horse-drawn carriage.
When he got close, the groom bowed and said, “Greetings, Deputy. Mr. Zhuo is waiting for you inside.”
Meng Wudi nodded, lifted the curtain, and got into the compartment.
“Let’s head to Pure Hollow Daoist Temple.”
Zhuo’s expression was ugly. After giving the order to the groom, he rubbed his temples and sighed, “Captain already knows about this. Let’s go to Pure Hollow Daoist Temple and pay a visit to Spiritual Master Xiao. This dead man came into the city with Spiritual Master Xiao. Although he wasn’t a member of One Qi Daoist Temple, Spiritual Master Xiao’s stubbornness… Ugh!” Mr. Zhuo didn’t continue.
Meng Wudi also sighed with him. The people in the martial arts circle and the government knew that this influential old daoist was known for his overprotectiveness. Now, someone close to One Qi Daoist Temple got killed; who knew if that old daoist would order all the daoists in Chang’an to chase after the killer.
The person who they worried about the most was the red-robed Phoenix-Chirp Daoist who had demonstrated several miracles to the residents of Chang’an. This man got an extremely short temper.
Also, these cultivators were prideful. Killing someone close to them was no different from slapping them in the face. This was why Zhuo Buyi sighed; no more trouble could appear in Chang’an at this moment.
Qi Lin was standing in front of Beckon of the Red Sleeve until the morning. He carried a huge bag and an iron staff. This man who had a huge figure stood still, and the residents of Chang’an who got up early to walk around all looked at him. If he didn’t have the stamped documents from the government, the soldiers and the royal guards who were searching the area would have arrested him.
He was waiting for Heng Gun.
About an hour ago, Ye Xiao came by and told him that Heng Gun was dead. People of the Royal Guard went to see Spiritual Master Xiao, and Spiritual Master Xiao instantly informed Mo Ningzhi since these four men were all her guards. Then, Mo Ningzhi told Tie Nu and Ye Xiao about it.
However, Qi Lin didn’t believe the news.
“We only separated about four hours ago; how could Heng Gun be dead? We said that we are going to look for Fang Jie, Chen Qingshan, and others outside the city today, and we are going to become sworn brothers, with Fang Jie being our third brother. How could Heng Gun die? How could he go back on his words?” Qi Lin thought to himself.
The crippled old man of Beckon of the Red Sleeve sat down on a stool in front of the wooden building, and he lit the tobacco pipe that Fang Jie gave him as a gift. Soon, smoke engulfed him
His liquor gourd was beside the stool, but for some reason, he wasn’t in the mood to drink after seeing this big man.
