“Lord Zheng, you claim to be an upright official and have no qualms about the sand in your eyes. The year before last, you ignored King Huai’s face and strictly investigated the military field case. You killed three of my capable subordinates on the grounds of occupying the military field.
“I’m killing your grandson because I’m returning the favor. Take it.”
He flicked his hand and threw the child’s body at Zheng bu, but this was just a cover. Just as Zheng xinghuai subconsciously reached out to catch it, que Yongxiu threw his spear.
The spear pierced through his body and nailed him to the ground.
However, the one who died was not Zheng xinghuai, but that good-for-nothing rich kid who was afraid of death.
Second young master Zheng, the hedonistic son of a rich family who was afraid of death, raised his pale face and sobbed, “”Father, it hurts. I, I’m so scared …”
He was still that useless dandy, already married and had his own career, but he would still cry to his father.
However, this cowardly and useless piece of trash pushed his father away at the critical moment and used his body to block the spear without even blinking.
He was afraid of his father and was submissive, but in his heart, his father should be the sky above his head and more important than anything else.
Xu Qi ‘an suddenly felt tears blur his vision, and his eyes were burning. He subconsciously wanted to reach out to wipe his tears, but then he realized that he was just a bystander, and the one who was really crying was Zheng xinghuai.
The emotional exchange ended here, and the image shattered. The last thing that Xu Qi ‘an saw was que Yongxiu’s sinister smile.
He suddenly woke up and opened his eyes. Zheng xinghuai’s wailing voice was in his ears. Such a clear memory of his family’s tragic death caused Zheng bu to have an emotional breakdown, and the sympathy ended early.
The crying went from intense and high-pitched to low and sorrowful. After a long time, Zheng xinghuai carefully wiped his tears with his sleeves. His eyes were red as he cupped his hands and said,
“I’ve lost my composure.”
“I’m sorry.”
Xu Qi ‘an cupped his fists in return and let out a long breath. “What happened after that?”
“We sacrificed two rank-4s before we managed to get out of the city,” Li Han said in a deep voice. “Then, we’ve been hiding here and there, secretly contacting chivalrous people and trying to expose North vanquishing Prince’s plot.”
Therefore, other than Zheng xinghuai, his entire family had died in the Chu Prefecture city … Xu Qi ‘an glanced at the crowd and said in a low voice, ‘”‘1’m going out for a while.”
The air here was unusually stuffy, and the carbon dioxide produced by the bonfire was extremely uncomfortable. Xu Qi ‘an actually felt a little stuffy in her chest.
Ignoring everyone’s expressions, he turned around and walked to the entrance of the cave. He pushed aside the branches that were blocking him and walked out.
He stood in the valley and breathed in the slightly cold air. Only then did he realize that the stuffy chest had nothing to do with the air. It was hard to calm down, hard to exhale, and hard to relax.
Soft footsteps came from behind him.
“I want to go to the Chu Prefecture city.” Li Miaozhen whispered.
Great hatred was silent. There was no joy or anger on her calm face, and her eyes were full of determination.
we are going to the Chu Prefecture city to take a look. Anger will only destroy our rationality. Before we go, let’s organize our thoughts and review the bloody massacre three thousand li case again. Xu Qi ‘an broke off a dead branch and bit it in his mouth.
the North vanquishing Prince massacred the city to refine the blood essence and break through to rank-2. However, refining the blood essence required time, so he chose to massacre the Chu Prefecture city and hide it from everyone with his habitual dark under the lamp mindset.
when I intercepted the North vanquishing Prince’s spy, I summoned his soul and asked about the situation. The spy didn’t know the location where the North vanquishing Prince massacred the people. But from the memories of chief administrator Zheng, there were many soldiers and spies involved in the massacre.
“You mean to say that the soldiers and spies” memories might have been altered?”li Miaozhen frowned.
Xu Qi ‘an nodded. it’s also possible that they don’t know what they’ve done. No matter what, it’s not something that a martial artist can do. Therefore, North Vanquisher King had a helper, the top powerhouses of other systems, helping him.
“That expert even had the ability to restore the Chu Prefecture city to its ‘original state’, but I’m not sure which system it is. The Northern Territory had been infiltrated by many barbarians, and they were all investigating this matter. The North vanquishing Prince must have known. He could either stop refining the blood essence or be fearless. This way, it’ll be difficult for us to achieve anything with our strength.
“Miaozhen, I need you to spread the news to the barbarians and the monsters.” Li Miaozhen nodded. She could fly on a sword and was very suitable for sending messages.
Xu Qi ‘an met her gaze and said, ‘”‘1’11 stay here to protect master Zheng. I’ll wait for you to return and we’ll head to the Chu Prefecture city together.”
“You must wait for me.” Li Miaozhen sighed with relief.
“There’s no time to waste, go quickly.”
“Alright,” he said.
Li Miaozhen summoned her flying sword, jumped on the sword Ridge, and stood in the air.
When Xu Qi ‘an returned to the cave, Zheng bu and the others looked at him.
He said in a deep voice, “”Lord Zheng, everyone, wait for my news here.”
Zheng bu seemed to have noticed something, and he asked, “”What are you going to do?”
“I’m going to Chu Zhou to investigate a case.”
This was understandable, and Zheng bu and the others nodded slightly.
Xu Qi ‘an glanced at them and said, ‘”‘The few of you have protected Lord Zheng and never abandoned him. I admire you. It’s only interesting and desirable to have heroes like you in this world.
“I promise you that I will punish the murderer and bring justice to the people of Chu Zhou.”
“If that’s the case, I can die without regrets.” Zheng xinghuai stood up and cupped his hands.
“I can die with no regrets,” Li Han and the others cupped their hands.
In the morning, Xu Qi ‘an came to a small county and found the best Inn in the area.
After paying the waiter for a bucket of water, Xu Qi ‘an closed the door and took out the fragment of the Book of the Netherworld. He shook his hand and the sleeping princess fell onto the soft bed..
