Zhou Yuanshang's pupils suddenly shrank slightly, and his eyes were filled with cold murderous intent.
“Who…did this!?”
The word almost came out from between his teeth. Although he didn't like Zhou Bi, he was his only son after all. He said he didn't want Zhou Bi to be killed no matter what.
Mr. Qi shook his head: "I don't know. This soul lamp can only see the owner's life status. If it goes out, it means Zhou Bi has fallen. You may need to find out the details yourself."
He is just a worshipper of the City Lord's Mansion. He will not care about the affairs of the City Lord's Mansion unless the City Lord's Mansion encounters an unsolvable crisis.
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in the depths of Zhou Yuanshang's eyes, but he didn't say much. He just bowed and turned to leave.
As soon as he left the yard, he punched the stone wall in front of him, and a big hole was punched through the extremely hard stone wall.
"Damn it! Who dares to kill my son, Zhou Yuanshang!"
Suddenly, Zhou Yuanshang thought of the Li family. Zhou Bi got into trouble after he went to the Li family, but he knew the situation of the Li family. They were just a useless family. How could they dare to resist the City Lord's Mansion?
Even if they resisted, how could the Li family be a match for a group of guards with swords?
You should know that most of the guards in their City Lord's Mansion are warriors.
Even a mediocre warrior can defeat three strong men. What's more, many warriors in their City Lord's Mansion are quite powerful. It would be easy for them to destroy the Li family with only three or five people.
How could Zhou Bi be killed?
Zhou Yuan did not act rashly. He first sent someone to investigate the situation, and then asked the person in charge of gathering information at the City Lord's Mansion:
"Have any martial arts masters entered the city recently?"
The latter immediately shook his head: "No."
Zhou Yuan did not ask any more questions. A martial arts expert could recognize him, but a cultivator could not. Zhou Bi was his only son, and almost everyone in the city knew about it.
But knowing this, he still killed his own son. This was just to make things difficult for Zhou Yuanshang. Could it be that someone was secretly targeting him?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. His internal energy surged like a tidal wave, and even the guards from the City Lord's Mansion who were close to him felt like they were having trouble breathing.
Martial arts master.
He is also known as the enemy of a thousand men, which means he can fight against a thousand men alone.
And Zhou Yuanshang is such a person.
After multiple verifications, he still didn't get any results.
"You good-for-nothings, you can't even do a simple investigation. What am I keeping you for?"
"Also, did the Young Master go anywhere else after leaving the City Lord's Mansion? Have you found out? If you can't even confirm this, then there's really no point in you staying here any longer."
Zhou Yuanshang's tone was extremely cold, and he was trying his best to restrain his inner anger.
A guard stepped out from the crowd ahead, his eyes filled with fear. "Reporting to the City Lord, the young master left the City Lord's Mansion and went straight to the Li family. After entering the Li family, he never came out again."
"The Li family's gates are now locked. I asked people around for information, and the conclusion I got was that screams were heard from the Li family earlier, and then there was no movement at all."
Due to Zhou Yuanshang's instructions, they did not rashly enter the Li family, but simply went to inquire about the news.
Zhou Yuanshang's eyes narrowed when he heard this, and a coldness continued to spread out.
"So that means the Li family killed my son with great fanfare and is still staying in the city?"
He was suspicious by nature and always felt that there was something strange about this.
Did the Li family think that he would be unaware of the murder of Zhou Bi, or did they have absolute confidence and not be afraid of the City Lord's Mansion at all?
It seems both are possible.
The Li family is just a weak family, so it is normal that they have no knowledge. After the City Lord's Mansion treated the Li family like that, it is not impossible that the Li family was furious and killed Zhou Bi and the guards of the City Lord's Mansion without regard for the consequences.
Although those guards have been trained, as long as they are not cultivators, their bodies are still mortal, and there will always be things that can hurt them.
For example, poison!
Or something else with great destructive power.
There haven't been any powerful martial artists coming to the city recently. As for the Taoists, there's no need for them to help the Li family. Just like Mr. Qi from their City Lord's Mansion, they have to offer countless treasures every year to keep him in the City Lord's Mansion.
The Li family is extremely poor and can barely afford to eat. Where do they get the resources to provide for the ascetics?
Zhou Yuanshang stood up suddenly, his eyes cold and indifferent: "Okay, okay, the Li family is really very good. They even dared to kill my son, Zhou Yuanshang!"
"Today I will let everyone in this city know what will happen to those who dare to kill my son."
Zhou Yuanshang had already made up his mind. He would torture every member of the Li family to death, make them regret killing his son, and make them feel incomparable despair.
Then, Zhou Yuanshang led a group of people towards the Li family with murderous intent.
Today, people from the City Lord's Mansion were gathering information everywhere, and the news about Zhou Bi had already spread.
"The Li family killed the young city lord Zhou Bi? Is this true or false? The Li family must have drunk a lot of wine, and they dared to do such a thing."
"By the way, where does this Li family come from? Why have I never heard of it before?"
"It's a small family in the outer city, a family without even a warrior. Someone from the Li family even went to the City Lord's Mansion to demand an explanation. This incident became known to the whole city, so you should have heard about it."
"So it's this Li family. How bold of them!"
Many people in the city were filled with joy, thanking the Li family for sacrificing their entire clan to get rid of a threat to them.
Zhou Bi was a man who did all kinds of evil and crimes every day. Many people in the city hated him for a long time. Now that Zhou Bi was killed, they couldn't wait to open a bottle of wine to celebrate.
It's a pity that this family that has been fighting against harm for the people now has to face liquidation by the City Lord's Mansion.
Zhou Bi inherited his personality from Zhou Yuanshang. Anyone who has stayed in the city for a long time knows that Zhou Yuanshang is far more ruthless than Zhou Bi. Once you provoke Zhou Yuanshang, there is basically no way to survive.
When we arrived at the street where the Li family lived, it was still dead silent. No one dared to light a light in the houses on both sides of the street.
However, on the right side of the road in the distance, there was a large courtyard with bright lights, which formed a sharp contrast with other places.
That's where the Li family is.
Zhou Yuanshang narrowed his eyes and rode his horse quickly forward. The horse's hooves made a crisp sound when they touched the ground, making people in the rooms on both sides swallow their saliva.
When they were about 300 meters away from the Juli Li family, a figure slowly walked in front of Zhou Yuanshang and the others. He was dressed simply and his hair seemed to have not been washed for a long time.
The man put his hands together in a Buddhist style.
He looked at Zhou Yuanshang calmly and said slowly, "Donor Zhou, can you please explain the Li family's affairs?"
If Li Shishan were here, he would be able to recognize that this man was the secular monk who had come to the Li family to beg for food before. At that time, Li Shishan felt sorry for him and not only gave him food, but also took him in for three days.
