After hearing these words, Xie Zhou hesitated for a moment and then shook his head. Xie Zhou was not the kind of person who would give up so easily. He did not want to leave this place just because of these things. After all, they had been traveling for half a day and searching here for most of the day.
Now the mastermind and the reasons behind this matter are gradually coming to light. If we leave so easily now, the road ahead will likely be difficult.
Moreover, they had already been drawn into this conflict. If they could just leave or come back whenever they wanted, the woman from the Western Regions might not let them off the hook. Thinking this, Xie Zhou decided to stay and investigate properly.
"You know my strength. If it weren't for the Flying Dragon incident, I wouldn't be in such a sorry state. But I'm confident enough to deal with a few minor demons here. Besides, you're here to help me. I think we should investigate this thoroughly!"
After Xie Zhou finished speaking, he looked at Luo Tianfan with a firm gaze. Luo Tianfan knew that Xie Zhou would not easily change his mind once he made a decision, so she could only nod and agree to investigate the matter with Xie Zhou.
The blind woman in front was somewhat surprised after hearing Xie Zhou's words. She didn't expect that Xie Zhou would still decide to stay and investigate after hearing such a terrifying story. Clearly, Xie Zhou was also a righteous person.
“Since you insist on staying here to investigate, I have nothing to say. The male lead is still with his master. Since you want to investigate here, I will stay here with you. I cannot let you get seriously injured. After all, you were seriously injured last time, and you should still have some aftereffects.”
Xie Zhou was pleased to hear these words. He hadn't expected Luo Tianfan to be so positive. He appreciated Luo Tianfan's kindness.
Xie Zhou then left the place and continued forward. The city was quite large. After half a day, Xie Zhou had not yet explored all the areas within the city. There were still some areas left, but Xie Zhou vaguely felt that the deeper he went, the more living people he should be able to see.
Xie Zhou then continued deeper, and sure enough, the further he went, the faint wisps of smoke he could see.
It was lunchtime, so it was normal for a few people to still be cooking on the way. With that in mind, Xie Zhou gently knocked on the door of the first house, and sure enough, he heard some noises coming from inside.
The woman who came out was ugly and looked timid, just like the blind father and daughter from before. She also had a very kind face. Xie Zhoujin could tell at a glance that the woman in front of him had never harmed the woman from the Western Regions.
"Where are you from and where did you come from? I've never seen you before. Are you perhaps from out of town? I advise you to leave as soon as possible. Things have been quite unsettling lately, and if you stay here any longer, I'm afraid your lives will be in danger!"
After hearing these words of concern, Xie Zhou felt a warm current flow through his heart. He shook his head and was then invited inside by the woman, arriving at her home.
The father and daughter's home was rather simple, and they seemed to live a rather meager life, but they could still afford three meals a day, so they wouldn't starve to death. Xie Zhou thought to himself and sighed.
It seems that kind people will eventually be rewarded, and this is indeed true. Those who do evil and commit many misdeeds will eventually become bad people, and they will be punished by bad people.
"Just now I met a blind woman here who is almost exactly the same size as you. I heard about what happened here. Seeing how kind you are, you must not have done anything to wrong the women of the Western Regions, otherwise you wouldn't have survived to this day."
The father and daughter in front of them were surprised that Xie Zhou knew their long-standing secret. For a moment, their faces showed some fear and unease, but they still lowered their heads slightly and nodded gently.
The woman before me appeared very timid and weak, but her kindness was undeniable. It was because of this that she did not harm the woman from the Western Regions and was able to live to this day. Perhaps this was the woman's way of life.
“I was indeed an observer and did not harm the women of the Western Regions. Moreover, I believe that my family has no able-bodied men or men, so I cannot deeply understand the pain of other women. I have lived here for many years and am a widow. I am an honest person and do not cause trouble, which is why I have been able to live to this day.”
After the widow finished speaking, she lowered her head slightly. Xie Zhou nodded, but did not stay there any longer. He then turned around and continued to explore, asking from house to house. The deeper he went, the more survivors he could find.
Next, Xie Zhou saw a child. The child didn't seem to have any ill intentions and was laughing happily beside Xie Zhou. Xie Zhou was surprised that someone could laugh heartily after such a thing happened.
“We don’t know that woman from the Western Regions at all. Since there are no men in our family, we have no ill intentions towards her. The brutal killing of her has nothing to do with us!”
After Xie Zhou interviewed several women in their homes, they all said the same thing to distance themselves from the woman from the Western Regions. After all, Xie Zhou's investigation had made things very clear and understandable.
Xie Zhou turned and exchanged a glance with Luo Tianfan. He was surprised to find that the survivors were all people who had not harmed the women from the Western Regions. This meant that those who had harmed the women from the Western Regions must have already been annihilated and were suffering in the underworld.
Xie Zhou then followed the survivors to the spot where the Western Region woman had died. He found only a pile of ashes and was at a loss for words. He was surprised to find that the Western Region woman's death had been so gruesome.
"This is the corpse of the woman from the Western Regions. It is truly shocking. I never imagined that the women here would despise women from the Western Regions so much that they would kill her in such a cruel way?"
When Xie Zhou said these words, a few different emotions were faintly revealed in his eyes. He never thought that someone in this world would suffer such sins just because they are good-looking. Where did this come from? What kind of logic is this in the world?
Xie Zhou sighed, then turned to look at Luo Tianfan beside him. Luo Tianfan had already taken out the ancient book he carried with him and began to carefully read and examine it.
