A famous brothel in the shopping mall seemed particularly quiet today.
Perhaps it's because the sun hasn't fully woken up yet, and most people in the city are still asleep.
However, the brothel that should have been bustling at this moment seemed extremely depressing.
There was a group of people cleaning up several headless corpses in the brothel. Judging from the clothes on the corpses, one of them should be the madam of the brothel.
"Sir, the injuries on these corpses do not look like those caused by ordinary people." A man with a slightly protruding forehead lowered his head and said to the man in front of him.
This man was wearing dark clothes. Judging from his appearance, he didn't care much about these headless corpses.
"Have any disciples from other sects or aristocratic families come to the city recently?"
"Shangcheng is not considered a small city, so there are many disciples from outside sects and aristocratic families coming in and out."
"This person should be a swordsman."
"Sword cultivator?" The man with the protruding forehead thought for a while, and suddenly thought of something, "Recently, two people did come to the mall. They were dressed simply, and their spiritual power was much stronger than other cultivators in the Zifu realm.
They should be two sword cultivators in the Zifu realm."
"You are definitely in the Zifu realm."
"That's what the spy said, and the spy is rarely wrong."
"Purple Mansion Realm?" The man frowned, "Do you know the identities of these two people?"
"I don't know."
Just as the man was about to ask more questions, a soldier ran in from outside the brothel.
The soldier respectfully bowed to the man: "Chief Lin, five headless corpses were found in the city. The heads fell next to the corpses, as if they had been chopped off with a sword."
The man's name is Lin Yifei, and he is a disciple sent by the Litian Sect to guard the mall.
Lin Yifei asked: "What else have you discovered?"
The soldier quickly said: "We also found a woman, who should have escaped from the brothel. When we found her, she was sitting next to the body crying."
Lin Yifei thought for a while and then said: "Okay, I understand, you can go back."
After the soldiers left, the man standing next to Lin Yifei asked: "Sir, these two things should be done by the same person, right?"
Lin Yifei nodded and said, "Probably."
"Then let's..."
Lin Yifei interrupted what he was about to say, "Don't talk about this again. These people should be killed by those two people. Now go and choose another madam and send a disciple from the Zifu realm over."
"But sir, this person took action on our Litian Sect's territory and didn't even report it. This person doesn't take our Litian Sect seriously at all!"
"Zhang Zhizhong is also dead." Lin Yifei reminded him.
Zhang Zhizhong is a third-level disciple of the Zifu sent by the Litian Sect to guard this brothel. But now he has become one of the headless corpses.
Judging from his wounds, his head was severed with a sword.
The third level of Zifu Realm is not weak.
If it was really those two sword cultivators from the Purple Mansion realm who killed him, then the person who took action either hid that his strength was not from the Purple Mansion realm, or he was a rare genius sword cultivator.
"Are you worried..."
"Hurry up and do what you are told. You don't have to worry about it."
After the man with a slightly higher forehead heard Lin Yifei's words, he didn't say anything more and went straight to take care of it.
After the man left, Lin Yifei glanced at the group of people who were dealing with the blood stains on the ground, with different colors faintly changing in his eyes.
"If it is true, I will admit to being so domineering. If not..."
…
…
Western Territory.
In a forest a hundred miles away from Broken Sword City.
A man in white followed by a girl walked cautiously in the forest.
"Brother Liu, we can't go any further, so let's look here. If we can't find it, we have no choice but to go back." Xiaoyue suddenly stopped while walking, looking forward with a cautious gaze.
Liu Yinan looked ahead. The forest had towering branches and thick leaves. It was difficult for the sun's rays to penetrate through the dense branches and leaves, so the forest ahead looked a bit eerie.
Liu Yinan actually knew that there were dangers lurking in the forest in front of him.
"Will there be albino grass here?" Liu Yinan asked.
Xiaoyue said: "There should be some, let's look for them nearby first."
Seeing the worry in Xiaoyue's eyes, Liu Yinan nodded, "That's fine, let's search around here. If we find albino grass, Butler Li's illness may be alleviated."
When Xiaoyue heard that it could alleviate Butler Li's condition, her worried eyes instantly brightened, "Okay, let's go find him quickly."
After saying that, Xiaoyue ran to a place, where she carefully toyed with the weeds, constantly looking for something.
Liu Yinan asked: "Do you know where the aphrodisiac lives?"
Xiaoyue looked back at Liu Yinan, picked her fingers, and said a little embarrassedly: "I don't know."
Liu Yinan asked again: "Then do you know what Bai Zhe grass looks like?"
Xiaoyue shook her head, looking quite embarrassed, and whispered: "I don't know..."
Seeing Xiaoyue's appearance, Liu Yinan also knew that Xiaoyue didn't know what Baizhe grass was, so he explained: "The whole body of Baizhe grass is gray-white, and the leaves look like they have been rolled, so it is called Baizhe grass.
.Baizhe grass likes shade, so it likes to grow in..."
Xiaoyue watched Liu Yinan listen attentively, and suddenly heard Liu Yinan's words stop abruptly.
Just when she was confused, she suddenly heard Liu Yinan say in a deep voice: "Don't move!"
At this time, Xiaoyue found Liu Yinan looking behind her with a heavy face.
Xiaoyue suddenly became stiff because she felt a cool breeze blowing behind her.
"Brother Liu..." Xiaoyue was about to ask something.
Whoosh!
What responded to her was a sword light spitting out from Liu Yinan's mouth!
Liu Yinan's aura suddenly became extremely fierce, like a sword with a sheath suddenly drawn out, revealing a cold light!
Liu Yinan's sword is like a long white line, with restrained power and subtle sword energy.
Xiaoyue saw the flying sword flying towards her. The flying sword was very fast and seemed to have no power. However, Xiaoyue looked at the sword reflected in her pupils, but she couldn't move her body or close her eyes!
Whoosh!
The sword light grazed Xiaoyue's cheek before she closed her eyes and flew back!
At this time, Xiaoyue was stiff and unable to move.
boom!
There was an explosion, and then Xiaoyue's eyes flashed, and Liu Yinan took her into her arms and pulled her back.
In Xiaoyue's eyes, behind her, she saw a black-headed snake that was more than ten feet long!
It opened its mouth and was about to bite him, but was blocked by Liu Yinan's flying sword.
There was an icy chill in its eyes.
But Xiaoyue was not afraid. She suddenly felt that Liu Yinan's chest was so reliable and warm.
