Those accompanying him were the same few who fought you last time at the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion. Among them, two died and two were critically injured. The killer’s main target was Xia Yunqiang, otherwise, none would have survived." Tang Zhanfei casually explained. "Liudong Port on Qingfang Street, is it behind that alley?" Bai Ziyue suddenly pointed toward the alley and asked quietly. It was only then that he noticed several figures on the rooftop, swiftly inspecting something, including a few tracking experts from the Law Enforcement Hall. "That’s right." With a confirming nod, Tang Zhanfei said, "Someone saw him escape from the rooftop, which is why we were immediately sent to search this street. Do you have any discoveries, junior brother?" As he spoke, Tang Zhanfei suddenly paused, lowering his voice sharply. "I might know who the assassin is." Bai Ziyue said softly. "Who?" Tang Zhanfei’s body trembled, and he couldn’t help but widen his eyes. "By the way, senior brother, besides Xia Yunqiang, who else was killed?" Bai Ziyue changed the topic and asked. Tang Zhanfei also became alert, his eyes discreetly scanning the surroundings. Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, he subtly gestured for Bai Ziyue to follow him. While walking, he said, "Jiang Yuankun, Li Yingru, and Wu Junhao and Zhang Fang were both seriously injured." Nodding slightly, Bai Ziyue didn’t care much and quickly followed Tang Zhanfei to a corner. "Currently, within the gang, there is extreme hatred for this assassin. Just providing a clue is worth five hundred contribution points, and if the assassin’s identity can be confirmed, it’s two thousand points. Since the assassin is becoming more rampant, the contribution may increase even further. Junior brother, are you sure you know who he is? If so, don’t tell me; let’s go together to find Master Zhao. He manages the Internal Affairs Hall and is known for fairness. He will ensure you receive the full contribution." Tang Zhanfei had calmed down by now and quickly spoke. Bai Ziyue gave Tang Zhanfei a surprised look. Such generosity and straightforwardness were unlike him. "I just know my limitations. Junior brother’s future growth potential will surely surpass mine. With those two thousand points, your development will be much faster. As for me, even with the two thousand points, I can’t break through to the Inner Power Realm. I’d rather tightly hold onto your big leg so I can seek more development in the future. Besides, I know that among you Ten Outstanding Disciples, there’s a chance to join an Immortal Cultivation Clan. The evaluation criterion is those contribution points. No matter how greedy I am, I wouldn’t take away such a great opportunity from you." Tang Zhanfei said solemnly. "Thank you, senior brother." Even though Bai Ziyue couldn’t gauge how much truth was in his senior brother’s words, he naturally had to accept the favor since Tang Zhanfei was indeed considering him at this moment. ... Half an hour later, Bai Ziyue and Tang Zhanfei were standing directly in a reception hall at the Sunburst Gang Headquarters. "You say you know who the assassin is?" A middle-aged Martial Artist with a slightly scholarly demeanor but a sharp gaze looked at Bai Ziyue from below. This was a mental intimidation technique belonging to the peak of third-class, often making ordinary people unable to speak and certainly impossible to lie in front of such individuals. This is a technique many experts like to use. "Yes, I was only suspicious before, but this time, I finally confirmed the assassin’s identity." Bai Ziyue raised an eyebrow, seeming entirely unaffected by the imposing aura, and said calmly. In fact, he had some suspicions when Chen Qingyun first acted. When the news of Young Master Jiangg Hee’s murder spread to the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion, most people were shocked, gathering around those who knew. But only Chen Qingyun, who was in the Courtesan Attic with Miss Yue’e, was the last to appear. Although he had some doubts back then, he couldn’t confirm it since Chen Qingyun was with Miss Yue’e. Now, he saw Chen Qingyun walking out of that dead-end alley with his own eyes. Coupled with the recent assassination event and knowing the assassin escaped from the rooftop, he instantly confirmed the assassin’s identity. "Who is it?" Master Zhao Lei and Tang Zhanfei asked urgently in unison. "The White-clothed Swordsman, Chen Qingyun." Bai Ziyue said gravely. "Him?" "How could it be him?" Zhao Lei and Tang Zhanfei shouted in surprise simultaneously. ... Wind Cloud Residence, it was originally named by a self-proclaimed Wind Cloud Hermit, a scholar and poet, after his refined home. Later, due to its beautiful environment and unique landscaping, even the air became exceptionally pleasant. Its fame grew, and like-minded scholars often came to Wind Cloud Residence to recite poetry, compose texts, and discuss elegant matters. However, twenty years ago, the Wind Cloud Hermit was imprisoned for publicly discussing state affairs, and Wind Cloud Residence was subsequently abandoned. After several years, someone bought it from the government documents. Now, through a series of changes, it has come into the hands of the White-clothed Swordsman, Chen Qingyun. At the moment Bai Ziyue revealed the identity of the assassin, even though Zhao Lei had some suspicions, he still decisively led a group straight towards the Wind Cloud Residence. As an insider, Bai Ziyue naturally had to accompany them. Of course, accompanying them was also a middle-aged arresting officer, also surnamed Zhao, who was one of the chiefs in Wujiang County, and his strength was in the Inner Power Realm. Knock, knock, knock! A series of knocks on the door sounded. After a while, a person who looked like a butler opened the door. Seeing Bai Ziyue and others, his expression changed and he exclaimed, "Who are you people?" "I am a chief constable from the Government, and I have a case that I would like to discuss with your master, Lu Qingyun." Chief Zhao stepped forward and said slightly politely. Chen Qingyun’s name was too prominent throughout Wujiang County. Even though Bai Ziyue had already identified him as the murderer of the Sunburst Gang’s three heroes, he dared not be too presumptuous. After all, there is always a possibility. What if he wasn’t the one? A third-class expert, and one who was only twenty years old, was not someone he could afford to offend. "I will go and seek instruction first." The butler responded quietly, and with a bang, closed the door again. "Something’s not right." Everyone present was experienced in the Jianghu. The butler’s abnormality was naturally seen clearly. "Break it open!" Zhao Lei shouted loudly, and soon two disciples from within the gang rushed forward, wielding their weapons and striking hard. Bang! Bang! With two loud noises, the door was violently broken open. "Chen Qingyun, you are under suspicion, come with us." Chief Zhao confirmed that the other party was up to something and shouted, rushing in first. Immediately, more than a dozen skilled members of the gang swiftly entered the Wind Cloud Residence. "Sunburst Gang is handling business, no one must act recklessly, or you will be killed without mercy." Continuous shouting was heard as figures rushed in. Bai Ziyue naturally followed closely. The first thing that caught his eye was a screen, with a painting of landscape in ink, giving a sense of grandeur. Beyond the screen, it was a courtyard with rock gardens, flowing water, swaying willows, and fragrant flowers. From a distance, they saw the butler rushing towards the back courtyard, shouting as he ran, "Young master, run quickly." "Courting death!" A long sword, like a sharp blade, swiftly stabbed out. Just as it was about to pierce the butler’s back, a stone suddenly shot out. Clang! With a clashing sound, the long sword was broken, and the Sunburst Gang martial artist who held it spat out blood, injured by the inner strength contained in the stone. "Unexpectedly, I am exposed so quickly. I thought I was hiding well." A figure in white, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, walked out from the back courtyard, speaking to himself. Beside him stood an old and a strong man, both looking very similar. "It’s good that you admit it." Chief Zhao shouted, but did not dare to move. Though he had the strength of the Inner Power Realm, he was far inferior to Chen Qingyun, who was already a third-class expert. Not to mention, there were two other experts beside him. "Liao Yuansheng, Liao Qing...weren’t you father and son disciples of the Iron Armor Sect? Why are you with Chen Qingyun, attacking our Sunburst Gang people?" Zhao Lei trembled, then took a deep breath and spoke. The Iron Armor Sect had been wiped out by the Nine Seals Sect. The disciples of the Iron Armor Sect had either died or fled. These Liao family father and son had mysteriously disappeared after the war three years ago. Unexpectedly, they reappeared, standing against the Sunburst Gang. "Master Zhao, we didn’t expect to meet an old acquaintance just after returning to Wujiang County." Liao Yuansheng raised his eyebrows in surprise, then spoke, "As for the disciples of the Iron Armor Sect? We are no longer. Now, we and Brother Chen are guests of the Di Family. We’re not afraid to tell you that Wujiang County has been targeted by the Di Family. If your Sunburst Gang knows what’s good for you, you might survive for a while. If not, you will surely be destroyed." "Di Family? Celestial Spirit Monarch, the Immortal Cultivation Clan, the Di Family?" Zhao Lei took a deep breath, his face instantly turned extremely ugly. He naturally knew the Di Family, one of the two Immortal Cultivation Clans under Celestial Spirit Monarch. In recent years, its development had been extremely rapid, constantly expanding. Several counties within Celestial Spirit Monarch’s domain were already under the control of the Di Family, except for the Government. Clearly, the Di Family had set their sights on Wujiang County this time. "Unexpectedly, the white-clothed swordsman Chen Qingyun publicly rejected the recruitment of the Great Cultivator’s Heavy Sword Sect, secretly because he had already found a powerful backer. But, a mere guest position does not make one exceptional." Suddenly, a figure slowly walked in from behind Bai Ziyue and others, speaking in a deep, hoarse voice.
