Zu An immediately lifted the curtain and went out: "Let's go, don't delay the date." "Yes!" Zhang Zijiang had just breathed a sigh of relief when he suddenly saw Xie Daoyun also coming out of the tent. His face immediately turned liver-colored, and he was filled with regret.

Oh no, I've ruined Lord Zu's good time. Will he make things difficult for me later? I'm definitely going to lose to that bastard Wang Bolin in the future.

Seeing his ambiguous gaze and reaction, Xie Daoyun guessed that he had misunderstood, and her face immediately turned bright red with embarrassment.

She opened her mouth to explain, but found that it was something she couldn't explain.

While she was hesitating, Zhang Zijiang had already slipped away guiltily, leaving her there feeling both ashamed and anxious.

Next, the Imperial Guards set off. Xie Daoyun naturally dared not ride with Zu An as she had yesterday. However, she still noticed that the soldiers around her were looking at her differently, and their attitude towards her became more and more respectful.

Xie Daoyun bit her lip, her face so red it was almost bleeding, but for some reason, she found herself not at all averse to it, but rather felt a strange sense of anticipation.

The day passed quickly, and they set up camp again that night. Xie Daoyun was filled with anxiety in her tent, wondering whether she should let her brother Zu in if he came looking for her.

So anxious and uncertain, I drifted off to sleep without waiting for the other person to come in.

At this moment, Zu'an had arrived in Yi County, travel-worn. Xiao Jianren and Zhang Zitong seemed to be discussing something together, and he deliberately coughed.

"Eleventh Master!" Xiao Jianren was already used to his unpredictable appearances, but Zhang Zitong was startled.

Zuan asked directly, "Any results from the previous investigation?"

Xiao Jianren replied, "We've already investigated the mission Miss Zhang carried out that night, and she certainly wasn't lying. We're still investigating the women the other seven men came into contact with before their deaths. We've made some progress so far, but it will take a few days to reach a conclusion."

Zu An nodded to indicate that he understood, then looked at Zhang Zitong and asked, "Are there any experts from the Witchcraft Clan in Yi County?"

"A master of the Witch Clan?" Zhang Zitong was taken aback. Ordinary cultivators probably wouldn't even know about the Witch Clan. Fortunately, she was a Silver-Rank Embroidered Robe and immediately realized, "The Witch Clan has very few members. As far as I know, in Yi County, the only ones who can be considered masters are probably the guest elders of the Prince of Yan's mansion."
