Chapter 29: Speculation

"By the way, does the mastermind behind the assassination of Dream Without a Trace last time have any clues?" Qin Haotian on the main throne asked.

"City Lord, there are no specific clues yet," Feng Gaoyang replied.

"Hmph, you're getting more and more disappointed in me, have I fed the dogs all the money I've spent on you all these years? Qin Haotian snorted coldly and said angrily.

"The city lord is angry, I really don't blame the brothers for this, it's me who has no way to lead. However, there is a sentence that subordinates don't know whether to say or not. Feng Gaoyang hurriedly said.

"Say"

"When my subordinates were investigating this matter, they seemed to know everything about our actions. As long as our people from the shadows are dispatched, there will not even be a trace of clues around, and we are obviously prepared. Feng Gaoyang looked around and whispered.

"Oh, does Captain Feng mean that there are traitors in Yilan City, or that the murderers who killed Lao Zhang and Lao Li are in Yilan City?"

"This is just some speculation by his subordinates, and his subordinates dare not say anything" Feng Gaoyang hugged his fists.

However, the more Qin Haotian above thought about it, the more he felt that there was such a possibility, otherwise it would be impossible for the shadows to not even find a single clue. Immediately, Qin Haotian thought of something, and said to Feng Gaoyang, "Captain Feng, only you know about this matter, I don't want the third person to know, you understand,"

"Yes, my subordinates understand. ”

"It's good to understand, I know all these things, you go down first. If there's any news in the shadows, remember to let me know as soon as possible. Qin Haotian waved his hand and said.

"Yes, city lord, my subordinates retire. Feng Gaoyang clenched his fists and bowed back.

And Qin Haotian put his hands behind his back, looking at the direction of Feng Gaoyang's departure, his eyes wandering and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Hey, what an eventful season," and then Qin Haotian, who was standing on it, sighed softly. The recent succession of events has kept him busy. After ten years of calm in the Southern Wilderness, Qin Haotian always felt that something was going to happen to break the tranquility...

Xilan Castle!

"Father, the child has recently encountered a bottleneck in his cultivation and is ready to go out for a walk. A lean, black-robed man spoke. This person's eyes are very deep, and he can't see the bottom, giving people the impression of being insidious. This person's name is Zuo Hongfei, the young city lord of Xilan City.

Opposite Zuo Hongfei stood an old man in a brocade robe with a slightly dark face. The corners of his mouth are always smiling. This person is the city lord of Xilan City, Zuo Yun.

People who know him call him a smiling tiger, because no matter what the occasion or what happens, Zuo Yun always looks smiling. Say do it, do it, without warning, how many people died under his insidiousness. So people who know him will always be secretly wary of him, because you don't know when you will be stabbed in the back by him.

"Well, Fei'er, you work hard to cultivate every day, so it's good to go out for a walk. However, according to the news that my father got, the southern wilderness has not been peaceful recently, and thousands of people have disappeared for no reason, and there is no news at all. You have to be careful when you go out. Zuo Yun admonished. Zuo Hongfei is his only son, and he loves him with great talent.

"The child knows that if there is nothing to do, the child will retire first. Zuo Hongfei said.

"Go ahead," Zuo Yun waved his hand. Zuo Yun looked at Zuo Hongfei's departing back, and said to himself: "I always feel that something is going to happen on a whim recently." Then he looked at the door and shouted, "Someone, call the deputy city lord." ”

"Yes, City Lord," a voice came from outside the door.

Soon, I saw an old man in a gray robe striding over, and the whole person was a little withered and looked a little scary. This person is Li Heguang, the deputy city lord of Xilan City, Zuo Yun was seriously injured by a plot ten years ago, and it was Li Heguang who saved Zuo Yun's life desperately. Since then, Zuo Yun has let him sit on the position of deputy city lord of Xilan City in order to thank Li Heguang.

At this time, Li Heguang clenched his fists and said, "City Lord, what are you looking for me?"

"Heguang, you and I don't have to see each other, sit down. I'm looking for you to strengthen the defense of Xilan City, and lately I always feel that something is going to happen, and it is better to prevent it from happening. Zuo Yun looked at Li Heguang and said.

"Well, I know the city lord, by the way, I saw Hongfei go out of the city just now, I don't know what to do" Li Heguang mentioned intentionally or unintentionally.

"Oh, Fei'er said that her cultivation has encountered a bottleneck recently, and she is going to go out for a walk. Zuo Yun said without care.

"Well, with Hongfei's talent, he must have practiced Qi Nine Major Consummation now, and the future is limitless, congratulations to the city lord for having a successor," Li Heguang congratulated.

"Hahaha, Fei'er still has a long way to go" Zuo Yun said a little modestly, but his face was indeed full of smiles, obviously he was very satisfied with Zuo Hongfei's son, and his face was bright when he said it.

Li Heguang also laughed and said, "City Lord, if there is nothing else, I will go and strengthen the deployment of troops first." ”

"Well, go ahead, remember to order the troops to march at one o'clock in the next few days, and tell the rest of the army to be on standby twenty-four hours a day. Speaking of this, Zuo Yun put away his smile and ordered.

Li Heguang nodded and retreated with his fists clenched. Li Heguang, who walked outside the door, paused, a smile of unknown meaning appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then left.

And Zuo Yun inside didn't notice anything.

...

In this way, three days passed in the blink of an eye, and the entire Southern Wilderness undercurrent surged.

A secret location!

"Ahh A man in a bronze mask stood outside the door, unconcerned about the screams, for he was used to it, and it was Darkmoon.

"Big brother, I have something important to report," Dark Moon said respectfully as she stood outside the door.

"Third brother, come in," a somewhat hoarse voice came from inside.

"Squeak!" the door opened, and Dark Moon saw an old man in a golden mask casually throwing a dried corpse aside, his eyes revealing a strange red light flashing away. However, Dark Moon didn't care at all, it wasn't the first time he had seen his eldest brother absorb human blood and qi to cultivate.

And the Shadow Cultivator was naturally the Blood Demon Sutra that he got from that adult. The primary exercises of the spiritual level, once refined to the fullest, are infinitely powerful. However, this exercise is on the vicious side, and it needs to be constantly cultivated with living people.

"How's it going?" asked the golden-masked Shadow.

Below him was Dark Moon, and after hearing this, he hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Big brother, just in case, I sent twenty people, but so far, only ten people have returned safely, and the rest are probably more than lucky." ”

"I don't care about this, I just want to know if the five thousand people have been gathered, and we will naturally settle these accounts with these forces in the future. The shadow whispered. In his eyes, he didn't take the lives of those subordinates seriously at all, and when he died, he died. As long as the thing is done, it doesn't matter how many shadows die.

"It's ready, when is the big brother going to use it?" asked Dark Moon.

"Since it has been gathered, without further ado, I will set off now, and the third brother, you will send two hundred people to be responsible for escorting. ”

"Yes, big brother, I'll do it. As he spoke, he was leaving.

"Oh, by the way, bring me the guy who caught the second child last time, I'm of great use. Shadow remembered something, and said.

"Yes, big brother. ”
