C4 Suspect

Just as he was about to flare up, he suddenly heard Hong Yang say: "Check the number of people first and see if everyone from Luo Family is dead."

"?"

"Humph!"

"?"

Fang Qian waved his sleeves, it was unknown whether it was towards Han Qing or Hong Yang, but he shouted to his men: "Listen carefully, all the corpses are marked and counted, do not touch anything, and remain as you are. Little Rock, go back to the City Lord's Mansion and report this matter to the city master. Then, bring the register back.

"?"

After around an hour, another group of people arrived at the Luo Residence. The one in the lead was the City Lord of Ningyang, Gu Changdong.

"?"

Standing in front of those cold corpses, Gu Changdong's expression was extremely ugly.

"?"

The Spirit Continent was huge, but Ningyang City was very small. In the entire Spirit Continent, there were three prefectures, nine counties, and one hundred and eight cities. Amongst them, Ningyang City was not even close to third rate.

"?"

In this world, only martial arts was revered and martial arts was revered. From top to bottom, every key point was controlled by a region's tyrannical forces. These forces also spread out in all directions.

"?"

The reason Gu Changdong was able to become the master of Ningyang was also because he relied on the sect backing him, and the fact that his Ningyang was one of the best was also because of this reason. Moreover, the background of Luo Family was not something Gu Changdong could afford to offend.

"?"

In this world of martial arts, cultivation techniques, pills, and weapons were known as the three Superclass. It was an essential resource for a martial artist to cultivate, especially when pills were involved.

"?"

This was because powerful pills could not only make cultivation simple and efficient, they could even change fate. A martial artist with mediocre talent could have peerless Innate Ability and could advance by leaps and bounds in the path of martial arts and become a great martial artist of their generation.

"?"

In other words, pills were used to create a basic platform, and cultivation techniques and weapons could only be used as a foundation. No matter how powerful a cultivation technique or how overbearing a weapon was, without a good foundation, it would be useless.

"?"

Thus, one could imagine just how powerful a clan that could refine pills was. They were the uncrowned kings. Fortunately, refining pills was extremely demanding on one's innate talent. This kind of person was extremely rare. Even if they were the heirs of aristocratic families, they were still considered one in a million. Otherwise, they would be the ones dominating the world.

"?"

The power behind Ningyang was precisely such a power. They were a branch of the Luo Family in the Spirit Continent's Pine Wind County, Pill Master.

"?"

The Princess of Pine Wind controlled the twelve cities. Their forces were strong, but to have Pill Master's Luo Family, which took up no more than a hundred acres, as a honored guest, it was clear how powerful they were.

"?"

As for the Star Moon Sect Sect Master, if he wanted to meet the princess of the Pine Wind, he would probably need to wait in line for one or two months.

"?"

Medicinal families usually didn't have many people and weren't interested in power. Thus, they would often leave branches in charge of purchasing raw materials and selling finished products.

"?"

Ningyang and Ling Family belonged to two families, respectively, which were both arranged to be branch families that would purchase and sell here.

"?"

As the City Master of Ningyang, Gu Changdong had long since been drenched in cold sweat, as if a huge mountain was pressing down on his heart.

"?"

Pills families usually did not have a strong force of force, but those martial forces that they were on good terms with were not simple. Forget about Returning Origin Stage Warriors, even Earth Origin Stage Warriors, or even Heaven Origin Grandmasters, could make a move for them.

"?"

No matter which one of them was furious, it was not something Gu Changdong and Star Moon Sect could bear.

"?"

At this time, Gu Changdong gritted his teeth and cursed in his heart. Which bastard would be so bold to dare to touch Pill Master's Luo Family?

"?"

"Investigate!" Find out! A time limit of three days, we must find some clues, otherwise, all of you will die with us! "

"?"

Gu Changdong was flustered. He pointed at Hong Yang and roared again and again!

"?"

Ningyang City, City Lord's Mansion.

"?"

At this moment, the sky was already bright.

"?"

The meeting hall with its spacious City Lord's Mansion was filled with people, but it was completely silent.

"?"

City Lord Gu Changdong's face was dark as he sat behind the study table. At this moment, he had calmed down a lot. There was a cup of tea on the table, but it had long since lost its temperature. Just like the atmosphere in the hall, it was exceptionally chilly and depressing.

"?"

Hong Yang, Fang Qian, and the other constables of City Lord's Mansion were seated on one side of the hall while the other side was the head commander of the city guards, along with his subordinates.

"?"

Although everyone was expressionless, their eyes were twinkling. It was obvious that they were all making their own plans.

"?"

After a long while, Gu Changdong spoke slowly with a low and hoarse voice: "According to the investigation, a total of 231 people died in the Luo Mansion. Luo Hua and his wife, the eldest son, Luo Song, and the second son, Luo Bai were among them. Only the whereabouts of their only daughter, Luo Qingyao, was unknown. If she were still alive, it would be a blessing in disguise. You all understand the stakes involved in this matter. I will immediately write a letter and report the situation to the princess. I hope that before the princess makes her decision, everyone here can do two things well. First, find Luo Qingyao, see her alive, and see her corpse if she dies. "2. Collect all the clues, the more detailed the better."

"?"

Gu Changdong then took a sip of the cold tea and frowned.

"?"

Boom! *

"?"

Putting down the teacup, Gu Changdong coughed a few times and continued, "Hong Yang, Fang Qian, Han Qing, Gong Liang, Geng Zhong, the five of you will go all out to find Luo Qingyao. Don't come back if you can't find Luo Qingyao. Song Du will lead your Black Armoured Army to search every household in the city, and at the same time, send orders for every county, village, town, and town under Ningyang to gather all information and gather clues. Everyone else shall carry on their duties without fail. Go! "

"?"

"Yes sir!"

"?"

Everyone in the hall responded in unison and rushed out of the hall as if they had met an amnesty.

"?"

Only Hong Yang walked slowly, with some hesitation.

"?"

Gu Changdong felt that there was something wrong with Hong Yang, so he called out, "Constable Hong, what's the matter?"

"?"

At this time, only Gu Changdong and Hong Yang remained in the hall. Hong Yang stopped and after pondering for a moment, he turned around and said: "Reporting to my lord, this subordinate once encountered the great Young Master Xiao You Cheng, near the Green Willow Garden. At that time, he had just finished drinking with a group of friends, and one of them had unintentionally said, Young Master Xiao, your Xiao Family is about to become the largest medicine dealer in Ningyang. This subordinate thinks that those words have something to do with the Luo Residence's tragedy. "

"?"

Gu Changdong's brows slightly twitched as he stared at Hong Yang, fiddling with the porcelain tea bowl in his hand.

"?"

After a while, Gu Changdong nodded and said, "Yes, I understand. You can go now."

"?"

Hong Yang was a little disappointed with Gu Changdong's answer. There was a reason for him to explain the situation.

"?"

It was because Hong Yang had already suspected Xiao Youcheng, but because Xiao Family was also a family with a medicinal pill, he did not dare to act rashly. That was why he told Gu Changdong about this matter, wanting him to send a document so that he could bring people to ask Xiao Youcheng about it. However, Gu Changdong was obviously worried about the background of Xiao Family as well.
