Although Qian Zhan was angry, he also understood that if something big had not happened, everyone would never come together to knock on the door.
After leaving the secret room, Qian Zhan led everyone to the study, asking about the situation as he walked.
As a staff member and counselor, Ji Tianxing was responsible for reporting the situation and told Qian Zhan about the two incidents that had occurred.
The guard captain and several generals were not idle either. Of course, they had to brush up on their presence and add some details.
Qian Zhan was shocked at that time. He stopped and looked at everyone with an expression of disbelief.
"What?? This happened?!"
He couldn't believe his ears, let alone accept this fact.
More than 20,000 people in a town disappeared, and the town was destroyed into ruins.
Not a few days later, fifty thousand people in another city were also kidnapped by a mysterious strong man.
This kind of thing has never been seen or heard of in submarine warfare!
What really made him unacceptable was that these two things happened within his jurisdiction!
For a moment, Qian Zhan's mind went blank and he lost the ability to think.
But he was lost for a moment and then quickly calmed down.
After entering the study, he did not sit down. He stood behind the desk with a solemn expression and asked everyone with majestic eyes.
"In just a few days, the mysterious strong man wandered into two branches and committed such a heinous crime. Have you found any clues?"
Ji Tianxing and several generals all looked regretful and ashamed, and shook their heads to express that they had no clue.
"From the beginning to the end, no one has seen that mysterious and powerful man or knows what he looks like."
"According to the survivors' accounts, when the incident occurred, all they could see was the divine light in the sky and the huge palm."
"The mysterious strong man was extremely powerful. He kidnapped tens of thousands of people in a short period of time, but he never showed up."
"We carefully inspected the scene and found only one clue, which was a mysterious mark that was deliberately left behind by a mysterious powerful person."
"We have consulted many books and classics, but we have never been able to find out what that mark means."
After finishing speaking, Ji Tianxing took out a piece of dark gold brocade with the circular mark painted on it.
Qian Zhan took the brocade and looked at it carefully for a long time, but could not see any clues.
He fell down on the chair slumped and helplessly, rubbing his eyebrows in pain, thinking about countermeasures.
But he held it in for a long time and couldn't come up with an effective solution. He could only complain: "Such a big thing happened, why didn't you report it to me earlier?"
Several generals glanced at Ji Tianxing quietly. They didn't say anything, but there were some complaints in their hearts.
Of course Ji Tianxing couldn't let them complain behind his back, so he took the initiative to explain: "My subordinates are in charge of this matter, and half of the manpower is assigned to investigate.
My subordinates originally wanted not to disturb your cultivation, but we will report to you after we find out the clues and have the results.
But no one expected that before we could find out the clues, the mysterious strong man would take action again."
The guard captain and several generals all stared at Subian Zhan to see how he would react.
Everyone thought that if Yi Jingfeng delayed for time, he would definitely anger the Governor and be punished.
After this guy rose to prominence and gained great respect from the governor, it was time for him to take a blow and destroy his prestige.
But what everyone didn't expect was that instead of getting angry, Qian Zhan nodded in agreement and said: "Very good! Yi Jingfeng, as my counselor, you are also my right-hand man.
Even if your ability is limited and you fail to check out the clues and results, your having such an idea proves that I am not wrong about you!
Next, not only can you not relax, but you must also work harder and strive to find out the results as soon as possible!"
"As ordered." Ji Tianxing bowed his hands and glanced at the generals.
Everyone was helpless and could only show an embarrassed smile.
"Okay, all of you, please step aside. I will try to deal with this matter." Qian Zhan waved his hand and asked everyone to exit the study.
In fact, he was at a loss to deal with these two things.
The so-called processing can only be to report the relevant news and situation to the second hall master of Taiyu Secret Realm.
After all, the Second Hall Master has always handled all matters in the temple.
Only major matters will be handled personally by the master of the palace.
…
After receiving the subpoena's message, the Second Hall Master was also filled with shock and disbelief.
The Taiyu Temple has been at peace for tens of thousands of years. Things like this, where tens of thousands of people were kidnapped and disappeared at the same time, have not happened for more than 10,000 years.
The Second Hall Master really could not imagine that any powerful man would be so bold as to do such an outrageous thing in the territory of Taiyu Temple.
Based on the situation described in the submarine battle, the second hall master speculated that the murderer was at least the peak god king, and most likely a powerful god emperor!
It is really terrifying for a powerful God Emperor to roam around and commit crimes in the temple's territory!
Not to mention the guards in various branches and cities, even the Southern Governor had a hard time finding the mysterious and powerful man, let alone capturing him.
What's important is that the powerful God Emperor is good at concealing himself, doing things in a flawless manner, leaving no clues behind.
Not only was the Southern Governor unable to launch an investigation, but even the Second Palace Master found it difficult and did not know how to search for the murderer.
Finally, the second hall master's attention was attracted by the mysterious mark.
He vaguely felt that he had seen that mark somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for the moment.
The Second Hall Master simply put down the matter of the mysterious mark for now. After thinking about it for a moment, he took out the jade slip and sent a message to Qian Zhan.
"The letter has been received. I am aware of the two tragedies that occurred in the Southern Territory and will inform several palace masters.
The southern governor was ordered to fight secretly and personally lead troops to inspect various branches to prevent the murderer from escaping to commit crimes again.
Orders were sent to all departments to take strict precautions and defend with all their strength.
I will send two to three palace masters to lead the divine guard army to the southern region for support.
If there are any new orders or changes, I will contact you again."
After sending this summons, the Second Hall Master called the messenger guards and asked them to inform the Fourth Hall Master, the Fifth Hall Master, and the Sixth Hall Master.
In the view of the Second Hall Master, with the ability and means of submarine warfare, it is almost impossible to find the mysterious strong man and capture the murderer.
In order to save the tens of thousands of people who were kidnapped, and to stop the murderer from continuing to cause trouble, he had to send several palace masters to deal with it.
Not long after, the three palace masters received the order and rushed to the second palace master's study to meet with him.
The Second Hall Master did not waste time and explained what happened in the Southern Territory straightforwardly.
After hearing this, the three palace masters were all shocked, disbelieving, and boiling with anger.
"This is unreasonable. What bastard dares to run wild in the territory of this palace?"
"This kind of thing has not happened in more than 10,000 years. I want to see what blind thing it is. Are you tired of living?"
"The territory of this palace is vast and there are many people in Li. If the murderer continues to do evil, it will not only be difficult to catch, but will also cause panic to the people.
This matter should be dealt with sooner rather than later, we must kill him as soon as possible!"
