Chapter 120 The Hunt Begins



"What hunting operation?"

Lu Qingyun and a group of powerful men from the Burning Soul Valley were all stunned.

"A group of outer disciples from Wanjian Mountain have already poured out of Beichuan. I'm sure you've all heard about it, right?"

Wang Bo pointedly said, "Leave the valley immediately and secretly search for these outer disciples of Wanjian Mountain scattered throughout Beichuan Territory. Kill every one you see!"

Upon hearing this, a group of powerful warriors from the Burning Soul Valley looked at each other in confusion, and no one dared to reply.

Hunting down disciples of Wanjian Mountain?

For them, this is tantamount to seeking death.

They really don't have the courage.

"We're just a bunch of outer disciples from Wanjian Mountain. How could you be so scared?"

Seeing what everyone was thinking, Wang Bo snorted coldly, "If we face a more powerful force in the future, won't you all be trembling with fear?"

"Master, although I am only an outer disciple of Wanjian Mountain, I am still a disciple of Wanjian Mountain after all."

One of the Martial King cultivators said awkwardly, "Also, Tianshan has a rule that cultivators above the Martial King realm are not allowed to forcibly conquer other forces by force, otherwise they will be wanted by law enforcement officers."

"If I tell you that I have killed several Wanjian Mountain disciples and an outer sect elder, would you think that Tianshan will not let me go?"

After a pause, Wang Bo continued, "Moreover, some time ago, I used force to force you to submit. Before coming to Burning Soul Valley, I also killed Zhong Chengkong, the master of Red Flame Peak, and forced the entire Red Flame Peak to submit."

"But to this day, the Tianshan Law Enforcers have never come to see me!"

Hearing this, Lu Qingyun's mind moved and he asked, "It's impossible that Tianshan didn't know about this news. Could it be that they are intentionally turning a blind eye?"

"Or maybe..."

He raised his head cautiously to glance at Wang Bo, and said thoughtfully, "Is Tianshan intending to show some leniency to you, my Lord?"

"Whatever the reason, it's none of your business!"

Wang Bo waved his hand and said, "Now, you just need to do as I say!"

"Yes, my Lord!"

Everyone obeyed the order in unison.

Since Wang Bo said so, they naturally would not have any objections.

Even if there is, I dare not disobey.

after all,

They are now puppets, and Wang Bo's will is the mission they must complete at all costs.

"Also, before you take action, each of you needs to prepare a mask and a set of night clothes!"

Wang Bo added: "After killing someone, you must destroy the body as much as possible and leave no trace."

"If you are accidentally discovered, don't reveal your true identity and then frame the various forces."

Hearing this, Lu Qingyun suddenly understood, "Master, do you want to disrupt the situation so that the people from Wanjian Mountain can't track them down?"

"clever!"

Wang Bo nodded appreciatively, "Now, the hunt begins!"

One day later.

Qiandan City.

In the lobby of the Alchemist Guild.

All senior alchemists, including Baili Huang and Li Huizhen, gathered together.

But at this moment, no one dared to sit down. They all stood in a row, all of them were terrified and trembling.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Sitting in front of them was a young woman with a proud figure and charming looks. She had a gloomy face and her tone was as cold as if it came from an ice cellar.

"I heard that Elder Liu Yang from Wanjian Mountain came here some time ago. Is that true?"

All the alchemists looked at each other and turned their gazes to President Baili Huang.

The woman in front of him was a famous and outstanding disciple of Tianshan Outer Sect, named Xu Mei.

It is said that he came to Beichuan at this moment to investigate the death of Liu Yang, the outer sect elder of Wanjian Mountain.

Not long ago, Liu Yang happened to stay in Qiandan City for a few days.

Only then did Xu Mei come with a group of powerful martial kings, ready to threaten them with force.

"Miss Xu, this really has nothing to do with me!"

Baili Huang stepped forward and said, "It's true that Elder Liu Yang from Guishan came to Qiandan City, but later he and the Second Young Master Zhao from Tianjue City went out to search for strange fire. As for where they went afterwards, I really have no idea!"

He seemed sincere in his words, but Xu Mei slammed the table and snorted coldly, "You think you can get rid of us just by saying you don't know?"

"So what does Miss Xu want?"

Baili Huang wanted to cry, but he couldn't. "We've already explained everything we need to. Even if you want to force us to death, we can't lie to you with all our lies, right?"

Xu Mei frowned slightly.

The reason why she enjoys a high reputation among the younger generation of the outer sect of Wanjian Mountain is not only because of her outstanding strength, but also because she is rational enough and steady in her work, which is why her master often entrusts her with important tasks.

For example, this time when tracking down the murderer of Liu Yang, her master gave her great authority.

It was precisely because she was wise enough that she did not make things difficult for Baili Huang.

After all, Baili Huang doesn't seem to be lying.

After a moment's hesitation, she turned her gaze to Li Huizhen. "Master Li, I heard that you and a young man named Wang Bo were the last people to see Elder Liu Yang?"

“Yes, yes!”

Li Huizhen nodded.

Perhaps because she felt guilty, she looked a little flustered.

And this scene was captured by Xu Mei.

"Is there any hidden secret?"

Xu Mei stared at Li Huizhen with a burning gaze. "Master Li, if there is something hidden, please tell me the truth. Even if it has something to do with you, I, Wanjianshan, can still show leniency."

"but……"

She suddenly changed the subject, her tone becoming sharper. "If Master Li deliberately concealed the truth or shielded the real culprit, once we found out, the consequences would be huge. I'm sure Master Li is well aware of that!"

Li Huizhen's delicate body trembled slightly.

But her eyes flickered for a moment, and she still shook her head, "Miss Xu, I've already explained the whole thing very clearly. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do!"

Xu Mei frowned slightly.

It was obvious that Li Huizhen lied.

only,

The other party refused to admit it, and she didn't know what to do for a moment.

"I hope Master Li will think it over before answering me!"

After pondering silently for a moment, she said meaningfully, "If you are being coerced, or have any difficulties, please tell me now. I swear in the name of the Outer Sect of Wanjian Mountain that I will do my best to help you resolve it!"

After a pause, she added, "By the way, isn't that young man named Wang Bo with you?"

"If you don't tell us, we'll go find that Wang Bo and ask him about it!"

"If Wang Bo's explanation is different from Master Li's..."

Xu Mei didn't continue speaking, but the threat was already very obvious.

However,

Li Huizhen still shook her head firmly. "Miss Xu, if you insist on believing that the death of your Wanjian Mountain Outer Sect Elder Liu Yang is related to me, I have nothing to say."

"you……"

Xu Mei's eyes suddenly turned cold.

At this moment, a voice came from outside, "Master Wang Bo is here!"
