Zhu Yang's mind was filled with thoughts and ideas that he couldn't understand.

Li Xuan walked over and brushed past him.

At the same time, a voice rang out: "Zhu Yang, you look a little off. Has something happened?"

Li Xuan looked at Zhu Yang and said calmly.

Zhu Yang's expression stiffened, and he forced a smile, saying, "No, it's nothing."

Li Xuan glanced at him and then walked into the headquarters of Haoqi Tower.

Watching Li Xuan's departing figure, Zhu Yang's pupils contracted, revealing a solemn expression.

Logically speaking, with Zhang Yi lying in ambush and a fourth-grade early-stage expert present, it would be reasonable to expect that.

There was no way Li Xuan, a mere early-stage fifth-rank cultivator, could escape.

He came back now, completely unharmed.

There are only two possibilities.

The first possibility is that Zhang Yi, for some unknown reason, did not choose to take action.

The second possibility is that Li Xuan was so powerful that he killed Zhang Yi and the others.

However, Zhu Yang prefers the first option.

In the second scenario, if Li Xuan was able to return unscathed from a fourth-grade early-stage expert and dozens of assassins, then his strength must be at least at the peak of the fourth grade.

At this time, however, Yang Yan was the only night watchman.

He didn't believe Li Xuan possessed that ability.

Therefore, the first possibility is more likely.

"Why hasn't Zhang Yi made a move?"

"Could something have happened along the way?"

Ideas flashed through Zhu Yang's mind.

"no!"

"I need to go out and ask Zhang Yi's men to confirm the situation."

Thinking of this, Zhu Yang immediately strode out.

Inside the Haoqi Tower.

After Li Xuan returned, he encountered Nangong Qianrou.

Nangong Qianrou asked curiously, "Li Xuan, did you go out this morning?"

It is already noon.

Li Xuan nodded and said, "I went to the mine in Taikang County to capture the demon."

"A demon?" Nangong Qianrou was taken aback. "Wasn't it dealt with last time? Why does another demon need to appear?"

Li Xuan said calmly, "This time it's not a demon, but a human."

"What? By human intervention?" Nangong Qianrou exclaimed in surprise.

Li Xuan replied, "Yes, it was done by human intervention."

"But why disguise yourself as a demon?" Nangong Qianrou asked, puzzled.

Li Xuan said, "Of course, it's to lure me out so they can ambush and assassinate me."

He did not choose to hide the matter.

Because of our current strength, we can handle many things.

Even if we tell Nangong Qianrou, it doesn't matter.

"What did you say?" Nangong Qianrou exclaimed in fright, "Someone is lying in ambush, trying to kill you?"

"Are you hurt?" she asked anxiously.

"It's alright, the enemy has been dealt with," Li Xuan replied.

Nangong Qianrou breathed a sigh of relief, then asked, "But why? You didn't offend anyone, did you?"

Nangong Qianrou frowned, somewhat puzzled.

But soon, he thought of the Yazi organization.

She quickly looked at Li Xuan and asked, "Could it be the mastermind behind the Ya Zi organization?"

Li Xuan casually replied, "Perhaps!"

They couldn't tell him yet that it was Zhang Feng, Zhu Yang, and the others who were dealing with him.

Otherwise, given Nangong Qianrou's personality, she would immediately make a scene and demand justice for Li Xuan.

But Li Xuan doesn't need it.

He has his own methods of doing things.

We'll just eliminate them physically; we're too lazy to waste time on intrigue and backstabbing.

He looked at Nangong Qianrou and said, "Just pretend this never happened."

"I already have a way to deal with it."

Nangong Qianrou quickly shook her head, trying to struggle.

But Li Xuan was taken aback for a moment, then said sternly, "Listen to me!"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Qianrou froze, then subconsciously nodded, choosing to obey.

But after making this move, she immediately woke up.

"what happened?"

"Why did Li Xuan's words just now sound as authoritative and irrefutable as those of a leader who still possesses cultivation?"

"How can I subconsciously agree?"

A deep sense of bewilderment welled up within her.

After reacting.

She wanted to speak, but Li Xuan had already turned around and walked outside.

Seeing this, Nangong Qianrou had no choice but to give up.

But her face showed anger: "How dare they lay a hand on Li Xuan! If I find out, they will pay a heavy price."

Li Xuan was her capable subordinate, and now that he had been ambushed, how could she not be angry?

……

"grown ups!"

"The prisoner's residence is just ahead."

A group of several watchmen with copper gongs fawned over a silver gong and said ingratiatingly.

Zhu Chengzhu showed a satisfied expression and said, "Enter immediately, search the house, and interrogate the family."

"Oh, right, any attractive women, grab them and let me interrogate them."

As he spoke, a greedy look appeared on Zhu Chengzhu's face.

Upon hearing this, the subordinates exchanged glances and all showed expressions of "I knew it."

But they didn't say much.

Because they were all Zhu Chengzhu's henchmen, they already knew Zhu Chengzhu's character.

Moreover, I have been involved in it over the years and have benefited a lot from it.

Furthermore.

They're all family members of prisoners anyway, so what if they're defiled?

They were night watchmen, and with Zhu Chengzhu and Zhu Yang backing them up, they had nothing to fear.

"Okay, my lord!"

"Don't worry, sir, we'll choose one for you right away."

"Set off immediately to raid their home and bring them to justice!"

Soon, five or six night watchmen rushed into the mansion.

"Hahaha!" Zhu Chengzhu said with a smug look on his face.

He then strode inside.

After a raid on their home and interrogation, they were found guilty.

All the men were arrested and detained.

As for the women, they were selected.

"My lord, which one have you taken a fancy to?"
