The shadow left by the barbarians had not yet completely faded, and now another murder had occurred. The garrison was immediately on high alert, and the search and pursuit were in complete chaos.
While the craftsmen and guards were in complete chaos, Qu Shi, Shan Bian, and several other Mohist disciples took the opportunity to go to the prepared locations and ignite the gunpowder.
But just as he squatted down and took out the tinderbox, he felt a black shadow looming over him from behind.
Dan Bian stared at the shadow in front of his feet, his pupils constricted, and he suddenly turned around, only to have a black cloth bag put over his upper body.
Meanwhile, the other people received the same treatment.
They were all gathered together and struggled desperately in the sacks, but were beaten on the chest and head, and punched repeatedly, causing them to scream in pain.
Master Li personally captured the Mo family's "Master Qu." With an indifferent look in his eyes, he turned away with a flick of his sleeve and said, "Tie up these Mo family disciples and send them to Yuwen Sheng."
Waaah—
Holy crap!
Upon hearing this, Shan Bian was so angry he felt like he was about to vomit blood.
Who exactly is this person? What grudge or enmity does he have with the Mo family?
They didn't give them the slightest chance; they just opened their mouths and insisted on sending them straight to hell.

Zheng Quchi was very flustered and couldn't calm down. When she saw Li Shi nod at her calmly amidst the chaos, she was stunned for a moment before giving him a big smile.
It was a success!
She succeeded!
Ha ha ha ha……
She had finally managed to get rid of the henchmen the Mo family had placed around her... Although she didn't know what would happen in the future, at least from this moment on, no one would be behind her, controlling her every move.
As for Master Li…
She knew that he also intended to sabotage the city wall construction.
However, he seemed to have some unspeakable reason for not wanting to come forward personally, and instead focused his attention on Yuan Sui and Yin Xiao.
After she realized this.
Using the assassination attempt by the Mo family as a pretext, they began a series of interconnected schemes and plots.
Li Shi wouldn't suspect that she was the one who did it; she would push everything onto the Mo family.
Her two arrows, though seemingly dangerous, were actually not fatal if treated properly. She deliberately left these two simpletons severely injured and unable to recover, just so that Master Li would lose these two controllable puppets.
This disrupted Master Li's plan. Without finding replacements for the two fools, all actions would be suspended.
She couldn't wait any longer; she had to help Fuxian County complete the construction of the city wall as soon as possible!
We must thwart the ambitions of these evil individuals who are plotting behind the scenes and trying to disrupt the peace and stability of Fuxian County!
Completely unaware that Zheng Quchi was wholeheartedly devoted to Teacher Li of Fuxian County, he suddenly saw her smile at him for the first time so brightly and sweetly, overflowing with an indescribable satisfaction and joy. He seemed to be infected by her smile as well, and his icy expression softened as he awkwardly gave her a slight smile.
