Chapter 295: Sin nemesis, defender of the people
As the saying goes, if you have done nothing wrong in your life, you don’t have to worry about Li Chu knocking on your door.
But Yin Ru and Yin Shi had naturally done a lot of bad things, so when they heard Li Chu knocking on the door, they were not just scared, they were scared to death.
After a brief silence, Yin Shi gritted his teeth and grabbed Yin Lao San's neck hard: "I'm going to kill you first, you traitor!"
Yin Lao San struggled and said, "Second brother, stop it! There are Taoist priests everywhere outside!"
"well!"
Yin Shi naturally didn't really want to kill him, so he let go of his hand angrily and sighed, "Third brother, you are confused."
“Ahem.”
Yin Lao San freed himself and continued, "Big Brother and Second Brother, even if we three join forces, we can't be a match for Taoist Xiao Li. He has surrounded us. Give up."
"Eh——" Yin Ru also sighed, "Forget it, forget it."
He slumped forward and opened the door.
After Li Chu knocked on the door, he waited outside politely. Then he saw the door open and saw the embarrassed figures of the three Yin brothers inside, and he knew that the situation was over.
Unfortunately, Yin Lao San came up and said, "Master Xiao Li, the person you want to save has been taken away by Lord Canghai. Now this matter has nothing to do with our Yin family."
"Oh?" Li Chu turned his gaze to Yin Ru again: "Where is Lord Canghai?"
"Every time I look for him, I go to the Merchant House Inn. He is in Room No. 1 on the top of the mountain."
Li Chu nodded slightly.
Then with a whoosh, his body turned into a shooting star and flew away, leaving only a trail of flame behind.
Before Li Chu left, he did not forget to gently close the door. Behind the door were the three Yin brothers who were unable to move...
There are many merchants traveling to and from Shenluo City, and there are special inns for these merchants to stay overnight. Some larger businesses will rent a room in the inn for a long time, or simply invest in expanding a loft of their own.
The Tianzi No. 1 rooms are all first-class luxurious residences, all of which belong to the largest business houses in the Heluo Dynasty. The Tianzi No. 1 room belonging to Lord Canghai is even more noble. It stands alone on the hillside and can be seen from a distance.
So Li Chu found it easily.
boom--
When Li Chu covered it with his mind, he could not sense any aura. Any cultivator who was slightly attentive would set up a magic array to isolate the aura in their residence, so this was not surprising.
So Li Chu landed by crashing directly into it.
But the luxurious and spacious pavilion was empty.
There were many doors on two of the four empty walls, so one could clearly see the snow and snow outside. In the middle of the room was a small stove, not big, but it was warm enough.
seem……
The people inside already knew I was coming, so they left early.
Clearly, with the help of Gu Ying last time, he had broken through the Mirror Moon Heaven Gate of the Moon God Order, but he still seemed to be under surveillance.
Or maybe the enemy is not monitoring himself, but the Yin family?
Li Chu looked around the pavilion.
Unfortunately, everything was clean and there was no trace left.
All that can be seen is the most basic decoration.
But speaking of it.
This house is first-rate in terms of location, orientation, decoration, materials and area. I'm afraid the house price is one of the highest in the entire Shenluo City.
If you say no, then don’t want it.
What a spendthrift.
…
When Duan Geng saw Li Chu coming again, he was stunned.
“Wow——”
He exclaimed, "Last time I thought sending the entire gang to Chaotianque was the limit. My goodness, are you now sending the entire family directly?"
"Fortunately this is in the Central Plains. If it were at the border, could you just send a small country over next time?"
Li Chu was relatively calm and said, "There are more than 500 people in the Yin family, young and old. I don't know how many of them have done bad things and how many have not. Let them all come over and confess, and you can check them one by one."
In fact, the Yin family had retired from the underworld for hundreds of years and had always kept a low profile. Most of the members of this generation were really doing legitimate business. Even if some of them took the crooked path, they only used ghosts and spirits to make some black money, and there was nothing serious that harmed the world. This was also the reason why Chaotianque had not troubled them for the past hundred years.
It's no wonder that before Canghai Jun wanted to cooperate with them, he had to collude with the Dongliu Gang and use debt to force them into a desperate situation. Otherwise, they would be living a good life and there is no need to take such a risk.
Of course, Yin Ru and Yin Shi, who had helped Lord Canghai do bad things, would be lucky enough to spend life in prison.
Duan Geng smiled and said, "With Taoist Xiao Li here, the security in Shenluo City is reassuring."
"uncertain."
Li Chu then told what he knew about Lord Canghai's plan.
I learned that there was actually such a thick dark cloud covering the city of Shenluo.
The hearty smile on Duan Geng's face disappeared.
Li Chu asked again: "Now that we can't find Lord Canghai's location and we don't know when they plan to take action, is it possible to take some precautions?"
"It's unrealistic to ask all the people to leave a city as big as Shenluo." Duan Geng shook his head: "I can only send a letter back to Chaoge, asking for as many experts as possible to take charge, and it would be best if we could invite a land immortal."
"In addition, we must try to find these thieves as soon as possible and nip the disaster in the bud."
Duan Geng said angrily: "This group of evil demons are so hateful!"
"I'll do my best to help." Li Chu said.
Duan Geng looked at him and nodded heavily, "Thank you."
Before leaving.
Duan Geng suddenly called Li Chu and presented him with two silk banners.
Li Chu opened it and saw four big words written on one side: "Evil Killer" and "People's Defender" on the other side.
"In order to commend Taoist Xiao Li's outstanding contributions, we from Chaotianque specially give it to you." Duan Geng said with a smile.
Li Chu also smiled.
Although I am a little happy to receive praise.
but……
The people in the imperial court presented me with banners that read “Evil Slayer” and “People’s Defender”…
Why does it feel weird?
…
Somewhere high up in Shenluo City.
Lord Canghai, wearing a wide robe with big sleeves, looked at the lights of thousands of homes below and sighed.
“That was a close call.”
"I was almost caught by that little Taoist priest."
"Fortunately, I knew that those idiots of the Yin family were unreliable, so I have been keeping an eye on them."
Behind him, the young man in white robe was kneeling on the thick cashmere carpet, brewing tea over the fire.
Hearing this, he whispered again: "No matter how powerful that little Taoist priest is, he is still one step slower than the master."
"Yes, he is still one step slower than me." Lord Canghai said, "But... we have to hurry up."
"If the Yin Clan betrays us, they will definitely reveal my plan in full. If that little Taoist priest communicates with Chaotianque, then... we won't have much time left. I believe it won't be long before a land immortal will come to take charge."
Lord Canghai turned around and said, "Once we are targeted, it will be very difficult for us to act."
"Master, do you mean to launch the attack as soon as possible?"
"Tomorrow, then."
"Tomorrow?" The young man in white robe was startled: "Isn't it too hasty?"
"Tomorrow is just right." Canghai Jun shook his head, "We can't wait any longer."
The young man in white robe bowed his head and said, "Yes."
Lord Canghai's eyes sparkled as he spoke word by word: "Tomorrow, Hua Qiluo..."
