Volume 3: Evil Ghosts Eat People Chapter 188: Gold-engraved Emei Thorn (Part 1)
"Sir," Zhao Yu reported to Xu Zun in a room of Zishan Sect, "The painter is ready and is painting a portrait of Wanqi Peak based on the description of Zishan Sect disciples."
"Okay," Xu Zun ordered, "Call all the witnesses. I want to interrogate them one by one. None of those old guys are telling the truth."
"Yes!" Zhao Yu turned around and did it.
"Wait a minute," Xu Zun said again, "Go ask Dai Long why the Purple Mountain Sect disciples I want to question haven't arrived yet?"
"Oh, okay," Zhao Yu confirmed, "Are you talking about the finger that turned into bones?"
"There were also people guarding the secret room, searching the secret room, and breaking down the door. How come I didn't see any of them?"
"I understand!" Zhao Yu cursed in a low voice, "These people are still trying to cause trouble. Let me show you how I'm going to deal with them!"
"Old Zhao, don't act rashly," Xu Zun said, "If they refuse to cooperate, you should go talk to the elders ! By the way, why haven't I seen them for a long time?"
"It seems..." Zhao Yu said, "I just heard from others that the three sects are going to discuss important matters, and the great elder has taught the leader of the Chengtongyue Tan Clan, Ma Xin, and Li Ronger to go to the main hall in front to talk!"
oh……
Xu Zun thought about it and it was obvious that Jiao Chengtong and Ma Xin wanted to find out their background and strengths from Li Ronger.
Xu Zun has a sense of security in his heart, and with the Empress Dowager's order, he believes that these people dare not do anything to him!
However, he knew that speed was of the essence and that there was no time to lose. He had to go to the Tan Gang headquarters today and find out the cause of Hua Shi's death.
Although the case is still unclear, Xu Zun has already discovered many suspicious points. He believes that as long as the other party can cooperate with him, the truth will be found out soon.
Seeing that Xu Zun didn't say anything, Zhao Yu immediately left the room and went to look for witnesses.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the door, he was knocked off balance by someone rushing in from the opposite direction.
"you!?"
Zhao Yu then saw that it was Huo Anu who bumped into him. Huo Anu looked very anxious. As soon as he bumped Zhao Yu away, he hurriedly reported to Xu Zun:
"Oh no, sir, please go and have a look! They...they are fighting!"
"What?" Xu Zun was surprised and stood up to ask, "What's the fight? Who's fighting with whom?"
“Sir…” As a result, Dai Long rushed in from outside again and shouted, “Oh no! Jiao Chengtong and Ma Xin… are dead!!!”
"Ah?" This time, Xu Zun was shocked. "What did you say?"
"Quick... in Guanlan Palace..." Dai Long said, "Go and have a look!"
Xu Zun didn't dare to delay any longer and immediately flew out, rushing towards Guanlan Palace with Dai Long and others.
Huo Anu was about to leave when Xu Zun suddenly remembered something and hurriedly ordered Huo Anu:
"Go and call Ku Niang and A Ni over..."
Just now, in order to question the parties involved in the case, Xu Zun asked Ku Niang and A Ni to wait in the next room.
When Huo Anu heard the order, he turned around immediately, only to see Ani and Ku Niang rushing out from the next room. It was obvious that they had heard the noise.
The distance was very close, and Xu Zun quickly ran to the front of Guanlan Hall, but saw that the place was already in chaos, with disciples of Zishan Sect and martial artists of the Tan Gang surrounding a group of people.
Everyone's eyes were red, and they all drew their swords, ready to attack , as if a war was about to break out.
Xu Zun rushed into the crowd, but saw that the people surrounded by these people were none other than Li Ronger and other disciples of the Sanhe Gang.
But there was blood at the corner of Li Ronger's mouth, as if she was injured.
The Sanhe Gang disciples protected Li Ronger and brandished their weapons, ready for a life-and-death fight.
this……
What is happening!!!?
Xu Zun knew something was wrong, so he rushed to the innermost layer and shouted, "Stop it! Stop it!"
When Xu Zun came to the crowd, he saw several corpses lying in the Guanlan Hall. The corpses were wearing purple clothes and were obviously disciples of the Zishan Sect.
Looking deeper into the hall, I saw two people lying in a pool of blood next to the incense burner. One of them was wearing a purple robe, and it was the acting leader of Zishan Sect, Jiao Chengtong! The other one was wearing brocade and silk, and it was Ma Xin, the acting leader of the Tan Gang.
Although they were far away, judging from the bloodstains alone, the two men were dead and had no vital signs.
"This...what on earth is going on?!" Xu Zunwan had never expected such a drastic change and asked Li Ronger hurriedly.
"He...they framed me!"
Li Ronger covered her chest while speaking, but in her palm was revealed a weapon about one foot long, with pointed ends and engraved with shiny gold.
This kind of weapon is relatively rare, but Xu Zun had seen it in his previous life. This thing is called the Water-Dividing Emei Thorn, and it is a weapon with extremely high lethality in short-range close combat.
The Emei Thorn has sharp spikes on both ends and a ring in the middle that can be put on the middle finger.
During battle, the Emei Spear can rotate, and while rotating it can be used to insert, stab, pick, and scratch. It has extremely strong lethality. If practiced well, it can be called the king of close combat.
Generally, people who use the Water-Fen Emei Spear use both hands. Xu Zun looked at Li Ronger's other hand and saw an identical Emei Spear.
No wonder Li Ronger has never been seen wearing a sword. It turns out this female gang leader uses such a weapon!
"Li Ronger!"
Suddenly, a roar came from the crowd. It was the second elder of Zishan Sect, Zhuang Jingcheng. He pointed at Li Ronger with a shining blue sword and shouted:
"You are really going too far! You are helping the evildoers and bullying my sect, but you even dared to kill my chief elder in my Guanlan Palace. This is simply lawless and unforgivable!
"If I let you walk out of my Yongxing Fort today, how will my Zishan Sect survive in the future? Prepare to die!"
As he spoke, Zhuang Jingcheng suddenly leaped forward and stabbed Li Ronger with a sword!
Swish!
A steel whip flew out in the air. It was Li Yuner who was protecting Li Ronger.
However, there was a huge gap in the power between the two parties. With just one sword, Zhuang Jingcheng not only knocked Li Yuner's steel whip away, but also made her slip out of his hand.
The steel whip clanged to the ground...
"Wait!" Xu Zun hurriedly stopped Zhuang Jingcheng and said loudly, "Elder Zhuang, please stop. This matter is definitely not that simple . Don't fall into the enemy's trap!"
"A trick!? " Zhuang Jingcheng shouted angrily, "Do you think we are all idiots? Our Wanqi Sect Leader and Tan Gang Leader Huashi died at the hands of evil spirits. In addition, Yan the Shopkeeper of the Big Warehouse and County Magistrate Qin Lang mean that all the top gang leaders in Yonghui City have been killed.
"But..." he asked Li Ronger, "Why is it that only your Sanhe Gang has nothing to do?
"Now, my acting leader and the acting leader of the Tan Gang have died in your hands. So many people have seen it with their own eyes. What else do you have to say?
"In my opinion, you want to destroy our two gangs and let yours be the only one in power! What evil ghosts are killing people? I think you are the mastermind who controls the evil ghosts!!!"
"This is too much! Why are you doing this!?" At this time, a martial artist with a seniority in the Tan Gang stood up and said angrily, "Li Ronger, I don't care how the leader of the Huashi Gang died, but it is a fact that you are killing my leader Ma Xin now. Today, my Tan Gang and your Sanhe Gang are irreconcilable. This feud is irreconcilable!"
"Roar! Roar! Roar... Kill her... Kill her..."
The Tan Gang disciples were excited, brandishing their weapons and roaring, and a fierce battle was about to break out...
