They, the master and his apprentice, were talking here.

A high-rise villa.

The foreigners were furious. "Where's the murderer? Where did the murderer go?"

"I don't care what methods you use, you must find the murderer for me."

"If we call on the vampires to take action, ordinary people won't be able to find the murderer, and I refuse to believe that the vampires won't be able to find him either."

"The way Eastern martial artists kill people means that it must be Eastern martial artists killing people again."

"These Easterners are simply insane. They kill without warning. Aren't they afraid of provoking us and causing us to go on a killing spree?"

...

They were all in a fit of impotent rage, shouting louder than anyone else, but taking absolutely no real action.

One of them sat on the sofa, watching them act with cold indifference.

He is the highest-ranking official in Xiangdu.

"Are you done yet?"

The highest-ranking officer stared coldly at the crowd. "I know you're all afraid of death. If you're afraid, then find the murderer instead of hiding here and howling."

"Sir."

One of them replied with a bitter face, "We have sent people to investigate 24 hours a day, but we have not found a single clue."

The murderer seemed to appear out of thin air and disappear just as suddenly.

The only clue was a few long strands of hair left behind, which should be a clue to something.

"Appearing out of thin air, disappearing out of thin air?"

The highest-ranking officer muttered these words, his eyes flashing with resentment, "The murderer is indeed no ordinary person. The Eastern martial artists are going too far. Are they trying to interfere in our politics?"

"They don't have that ability."

The fat, big-eared foreigner looked disdainful. "I suspect this assassination attempt is retaliation, or perhaps a warning."

"Retaliation? A warning?"

The highest-ranking officer narrowed his eyes and looked at everyone present, "Which of you has provoked the Eastern martial artists again?"

Last year, the Eastern martial artist promised not to make a move so easily again.

Could it be that something I don't know about has happened again?

Everyone: ...

They looked at each other, clearly unsure of what was going on.

For a moment, the entire living room fell silent.

"Have they all become mute?"

The highest-ranking officer angrily rebuked, "Don't you know what you've done? Don't you know when you've offended people?"

Our main purpose in Xiangdu is to bring wealth to our country, not to offend people we shouldn't offend.

The life or death of vampires, those lowly creatures, has absolutely nothing to do with us.

If the Eastern martial artists want to eliminate them, then so be it. Those monsters are endless; there's no need to offend them and bring us disaster and loss.

Today you must find out who exactly is plotting against us, or I'll see how many more of you die!

"..."

Upon hearing this, everyone present turned pale.

The living room fell silent once again.

"Does long hair mean the killer is a woman?"

Suddenly, a question was asked.

After everyone came to their senses, they began to speculate, "Could it be that the murderer was avenging the woman?"

"So, the assassination is related to a woman?"

"Who offended the female martial artist from the East?"

"Indeed, who dared to lay a hand on the woman who is an Eastern martial artist?"

...

No sooner had everyone finished speaking than one of them exclaimed, "I understand!"

"who?"

"Who is it?"

"Who is it?"

"Who provoked this person?"

...

Those present pressed for answers, wanting to know the truth.

The highest-ranking officer stared at the person who had exclaimed in surprise, and said, "Speak."

With a trembling voice, he asked, "Sir, do you remember the person who broke the box office record a while ago?"

"Lin Jingyu?"

"Yes, sir, she earned 60 million from one film."

"Is it her?"

The highest-ranking officer frowned deeply. "She's an Eastern martial artist?"

"Yes, sir."

The fat, big-eared foreigner looked serious. "She is a disciple of the Emei Sect. She came to Xiangdu last year and, with the help of Shaw Brothers and others, her first film grossed 60 million at the box office."

Chief Buster and others relayed a message to the merchants, requesting that Lin Jingyu attend the next banquet.

About ten days later, Commander Buster and others were assassinated.

Everyone present knew what it meant to invite Lin Jingyu to the banquet.

After all, if they want to amass more wealth in Shangri-La and send it back to the royal family, they are definitely eyeing the wealthy merchants in Shangri-La, but of course they won't make a move easily.

They need to give them 10 to 20 million yuan a year, and with the various taxes they receive, they can send over a billion yuan back to China every year.

That's why they've been living a life of luxury in Xiangdu.

"You suspect she did it?"

The highest-ranking officer's face was extremely grim. "Do you have any evidence?"

"No."

The obese foreigner shook his head. "This is our guess, and it's the most likely thing to happen."

"Eastern martial artists are indeed arrogant."

Another foreigner flew into a rage, "Sir, we must immediately order the arrest of this woman."

“No!”

One of the foreigners in a black suit retorted, "Without evidence, do not touch this woman, sir. This woman is not only a disciple of an Eastern martial arts master, but she is also a person sent by a great Eastern power."

"Since we cannot confirm that she assassinated our officials, it would be difficult to explain our arrest to the major Eastern power."

One of them couldn't help but retort, "What explanation do you need..."

"Harrist, shut up. Have you forgotten about the Eastern martial artists purging the vampires?"

The foreigner in the black suit shouted sternly, "Don't you know how terrifying Eastern martial artists are? Based on this assassination attempt, tell me, which of us can escape their assassination attempt?"
