At night, the village is lit up with flames.
After settling the old man Guge, Lu Chengchuan burned the bodies of the villagers and then set all the houses on fire.
"Let's go and find those murderers."
Late at night, a fire burned down the entire village. The fire was blazing, but it could not warm the hearts of the two people. Lu Chengchuan said coldly, and left the village with the still sad Raya.
Five days later, Lu Chengchuan brought Laya out of the desert and came to Shayan Town for the fourth time.
"Hello, Lord Lu!"
In the center of the town, where Aibende lived, the captain of the soldiers in charge of guarding saw him and hurried over to greet him.
After saying this, the captain felt something was wrong. He looked up and saw the gentleman with a cold expression, as if someone had provoked him. The captain quickly lowered his head, fearing that he would upset the gentleman again.
Ever since Lu Chengchuan demonstrated his strength in prison two years ago, every time Lu Chengchuan came, Aibende would go to the market to find him. He had also been to this mansion twice.
The guards at the gate knew him and had to be polite to him because they knew he was the mayor.
"Where is your mayor? Where is he?"
"The mayor is upstairs. I'll take you up." The captain said without hesitation that he would take people up.
If someone else had come, there would naturally be some notification, but this guy was different. If he had just stopped the other person for two seconds, the mayor would have eaten him alive.
The captain of the guard led him inside, and the servants along the way quickly made way when they saw him.
"Butler, Lord Lu is here to see the mayor. Please inform him."
Arriving on the second floor, the captain of the guard found the butler to explain the situation.
"Oh, Lord Lu, please wait a moment. I will go find the mayor right away." The housekeeper couldn't help but feel a little panicked when he saw the man coming with a cold face.
He quickly ran to the mayor's lounge, knocked twice on the door and went in.
"What's wrong..."
"Mayor, Lord Lu said he wanted to see you. He seems to be in a bad mood."
Without waiting for the mayor to question him, the housekeeper quickly told him the situation, and specifically explained that the other party was in a bad mood, asking the mayor to be careful and not to make others angry again.
"Ah, who provoked him?" When Aibende heard that Lu Chengchuan was in a bad mood, his heart sank for a moment.
"I'm going to meet him now. You should also make some preparations and serve him well..."
No matter why the other party was unhappy, Aibende quickly stood up to greet him. He didn't want to be implicated for no reason.
Aibende ran out of the room and soon saw Lu Chengchuan and his disciple in the corridor. Both of them had cold faces, and his disciple's eyes were red, as if he had been crying.
"Master Lu, what's wrong?"
Aibende felt that if he said something wrong he would die here, but he didn't dare not speak up.
"Do you have time? I have a few things to ask you."
"Please come to my office and talk. I will never hide anything I know."
What else could Aibende say? Did he have the right to refuse?
If he uttered the word "no", he would die without knowing how he died the next second.
When he arrived at the office, Aibende waited for Lu Chengchuan to sit down before he sat down tremblingly and waited for Lu Chengchuan to ask questions.
"The village I live in... was destroyed by a group of people. No one in the village survived. I want to ask, do you have anything to say?"
"It's definitely not me who did this. These villages pay us taxes every year. We can't possibly do such a thing."
Lu Chengchuan's words were like a sharp sword, piercing through Aibende's butt from under the chair. He jumped up from the chair instantly and raised his hands to assure that he didn't do it.
The village will pay taxes to them. He is not a murderer. He has to pick a fight with a village, especially the village where Lu Chengchuan lives. He wouldn't dare to do that even if he had ten times the courage.
"Why are you so excited? I know it wasn't you. I just came here to ask if there are any suspicious people walking around in the desert recently."
At the fifth level of Divine Appearance Technique, Lu Chengchuan's mental power became stronger and stronger. As long as he focused his attention on a person, he could even sense the other person's emotions.
Aibende was panicked and excited, but he did not lie.
Knowing that he was not to blame, Epbende breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly, "I'll have someone check right away. Don't worry, I will definitely find out who it is for you."
"Butler, come in!"
Aibende didn't dare to delay and immediately arranged for the housekeeper to check.
When the housekeeper heard that they were going to investigate the people who destroyed the village, his expression suddenly became very strange. When Aibende saw this, his heart tightened and he quickly said
"What are you standing there for? Go check it out!"
Ai Bende urged the housekeeper to check. The housekeeper glanced at Lu Chengchuan and made mental preparations. He spoke
"Ten days ago, someone from the sentry post reported back that the Crimson Swordsman Group had appeared in the west. They robbed several villages along the way... Lord Lu's village was probably taken by them..."
The butler told Lu Chengchuan the information he had obtained before, and Lu Chengchuan looked at the butler with his eyes slightly narrowed.
"The Bloody Swordsman Group, it's them..." Ebende suddenly realized that he had indeed received this information, but he did not pay attention to it at the time.
This time he didn't know what to say, and looked at Lu Chengchuan with his mouth open but unable to speak.
"Are you sure they did it?"
Lu Chengchuan stared at the butler, his voice extremely cold.
The housekeeper was under increasing pressure. Having already spoken, he dared not deny it, so he continued, "It was them. Several villages were destroyed, and there was nothing we could do."
"Why can't I do anything?"
"They... have a master-level super-powered person, and we can't afford to offend him." Aibende took over the conversation. The reason was simple: they couldn't beat the other party.
It would be easy for a master-level expert to kill them. It was lucky that the Crimson Swordsman Group didn't come to mess with them. How could they dare to provoke these lunatics?
"I did know this before, but it was also because I had the power behind me that they didn't come to Shayan Town to cause trouble. I didn't dare to provoke them either. Who knows if they..."
Aibende didn't dare to say anything more, for fear that Lu Chengchuan would get angry and hit him.
Whether it was Lu Chengchuan or the Crimson Swordsman Group, he couldn't afford to offend either of them. Now he was caught between the two and he really didn't know what to do.
"Where are they?"
After confirming that the two were not lying, Lu Chengchuan asked where the Blood Swordsman Group was. Since they were the ones who massacred the village, Lu Chengchuan wanted to seek revenge on them.
"They are still in the desert, quite deep in the desert. This is the information from three days ago. We have to go look for them again." The butler replied hurriedly.
"Find them and tell me their location." Lu Chengchuan turned and said to Aibende.
Ai Bende nodded on the spot: "I will ask my men to look for it immediately, and I will definitely find it for you."
Seeing that the other party did not vent their anger on them, Aibende quickly sent people out to look for them. He must find the trace of the Crimson Swordsmen, otherwise they would be the ones in trouble.
Following the mayor's order, hundreds of scouts rushed into the desert, frantically searching for the traces of the Crimson Swordsmen.
