Chapter 56: Investigate thoroughly.
Chapter 56
"Who do you think finally obtained the inheritance of this immortal?"
Amidst this noisy crowd, a questioning voice suddenly rang out, instantly attracting the attention of everyone around.
"Who would have known that the Tomb of the Loose Immortals just disappeared so suddenly? There has never been a person suspected of inheriting the Loose Immortals' inheritance." One person spread his hands and shook his head helplessly, his face full of confusion and puzzlement.
"I heard that many people have come to Shifang City to look for it, but no one has found out who finally obtained the inheritance." Another person said immediately, with a bit of urgency in his voice.
“…”
Everyone was discussing the matter, the atmosphere lively. Bu Xingjin stood quietly by, listening silently to the discussions. However, a hint of disappointment lingered in his bright eyes, as he hadn't received the answers he sought from the chaotic conversation. Most of the discussion centered on the enigmatic Sanxian Tomb, while the events outside the tomb, seemingly due to limited attention, hadn't received much mention.
Bu Xingjin guessed this secretly, thinking that he would listen for a while longer. If no one discussed what he wanted to hear, then he would have to find a way to cleverly guide the direction of the topic.
Not long after, amidst the buzz of discussion, Bu Xingjin keenly noticed a seemingly insignificant detail. Someone mentioned a gust of wind outside the Sanxian Tomb, while others reported seeing someone blown away. This bizarre occurrence deeply concerned Bu Xingjin, and his frown relaxed slightly. He inexplicably felt that the missing person must be Senior Sister Zhong.
How could someone vanish in a gust of wind, without drawing much notice? Bu Xingjin's suspicions grew deeper, like a thick, impenetrable fog. He decided to listen, to see if he could find more clues from the fragments of conversation.
The man took a sip of wine and, still feeling a bit tipsy, casually said, "There's a gust of wind outside the Tomb of the Loose Immortals. Do you know what's going on? I remember someone seemed to be blown away by the wind. Was she a beautiful fairy?"
"Are you still thinking about the person you mentioned? What beautiful fairy? Are you crazy about women?" Someone at the same table laughed out loud immediately, and the laughter was full of disdain, as if it was not the first time he heard him mention this matter.
"Why are you all so unbelievable? What I said is true. There was indeed a fairy who died in the wind. She appeared before my eyes, but disappeared without a trace after a gust of wind." The man who brought up the topic spoke loudly and excitedly, his face flushed with excitement.
"Even if what you said is true, it's gone, it's gone. It has nothing to do with you anyway." Another person at the table immediately tried to calm the situation and try to calm the argument.
“…”
The discussion at that table stopped, but Bu Xingjin didn't give up. His determined eyes gleamed with determination. He decided to investigate the matter himself and get to the bottom of it.
Bu Xingjin approached the table, bearing two expensive dishes. With a humble attitude, he asked the person who had brought up the topic for more specific details, attempting to reconstruct the scene piece by piece. The person recalled the scene, saying that the person he saw was wearing a pink dress, standing in front of him, with a graceful figure. He didn't get a clear look, but from the elegant back and the aura emanating from her, he had the impression that she was a beautiful fairy.
The man didn't know much, so after Bu Xingjin understood the situation, he took out a communication talisman and sent a message to the master of Fuhua Peak.
"What did you say?" After Bu Xingjin told the master of Fuhua Peak about a woman in a pink dress who disappeared in a gust of wind, the master's voice was obviously shocked, and his voice was full of disbelief.
"Peak Master, do you know who it is?" Bu Xingjin pressed eagerly, a hint of anxiety in his voice. The Master of Fuhua Peak clearly knew who was capable of making someone vanish in a gust of wind, without drawing any attention.
"This shouldn't be the case. How could Xin'er get involved with them? They..." Bu Xingjin didn't hear the rest of the words clearly and lost the signal of the communication talisman.
