The next moment, Yan Junwei turned to look at Bai Hong, making no attempt to hide the murderous intent in his eyes.

"Don't act impulsively."

Tian Guo shook her head at him and looked at Bai Hong, saying, "Tell me, what exactly happened? How did Captain Guan die? And what happened to Cheng Lei and the others?"

Bai Hong breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly told everything he knew, like beans spilling from a bamboo tube.

The more Yan Junwei and his companion listened, the more shocked they became.

"You mean, people from a small village nearby killed Captain Guan?" Yan Junwei looked at him with a "you're kidding me" expression.

"Senior, I'm not entirely clear on the specifics either."

Bai Hong's smile was more like a grimace than a cry. "This is the conclusion reached by Lord Song and Captain Cheng Lei after inspecting the site and discussing it. I only found out about this after making many inquiries."

"Chenjia Village?"

Tian Guo noted the name down, then asked, "And then? What happened next?"

"The next morning, Lord Song led all the guards in the fortress, and even brought out two cannons, to attack Chen Family Village, wanting to avenge Captain Guan."

"Hmph." Yan Junwei snorted coldly and said, "This Song Hailong has quite a good plan. What's the use of killing an enemy when the person is already dead? Does he think he can bring Lord Guan's brother back to life?"

"That's what Lord Song thought, but once he left, he never returned."

"What?!"

Yan Junwei opened his mouth wide.

Tian Guo's face also showed shock.

"Yes, seniors, you heard me right."

Bai Hong sighed, "None of the thirty or forty people, including the fortress lord and Captain Cheng, have returned."

The atmosphere fell silent instantly.

Yan Junwei and Tian Guo looked at each other in bewilderment.

Are you kidding me?

Chenjiazhai sounds like a small village of two or three hundred people in the vicinity, which is incomparable to a village like Songjiabao with thousands of people.

As a result, Song Hailong brought along all the guards in the fortress, and even two cannons.

Can't even take down a small village?

All of our own people are dead?

This is outrageous!

How do I know if you're lying to us?

Tian Guo let out a cold laugh and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you're the one calling the shots in Songjiabao now, aren't you? Or perhaps you killed them and are now pretending to be innocent in front of us?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Junwei's eyes flashed with murderous intent once again.

If that's the case, then the two of them killing this guy would be a great achievement.

"Seniors, firstly, I have no grudge against the Fortress Lord and his men, and I certainly wouldn't have the guts to kill Captain Guan."

Secondly, my strength wouldn't allow it. Although I'm a martial artist at the entry level, my internal energy and blood have long since declined. If it were a fight to the death, I might not be a match for Captain Cheng. Besides, there are so many of them, fully armed, including cannons. How could I possibly kill them all? I'm afraid I'd be riddled with bullets before I even got close.”

Bai Hong wanted to cry but had no tears.

If it weren't for the inconvenience of having a family to support, he would have left this place of trouble long ago.

"Yeah?"

Yan Junwei snorted coldly, inwardly thinking that this was unlikely.

"So, it was the people from Chenjia Village who killed Song Hailong and the others?"

Tian Guo asked again.

"this,"

Bai Hong looked troubled. "I don't know who did it either. I mustered up my courage and went to Chenjia Village to take a look."

"Oh? How is it going?"

"The entire Chenjia Village has been reduced to ruins. It must have been bombed, presumably by the village lord. But then something happened, and they all disappeared. Not only that, but even the cars they drove out and the artillery they were towing have vanished."

Bai Hong wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "I felt this matter was too strange, so I didn't dare to get too close. After taking a look, I came back and waited for someone from Anshan City to tell me about it. As soon as the two seniors appeared here, someone came to inform me. You all know what happened next."

After hearing his words, Yan Junwei and the other man were completely confused.

Chenjiazhai has been bombed into ruins.

How did Song Hailong and his gang disappear?

The weapons and vehicles they brought with them are gone; they have obviously been taken away.

Who took it?

It's likely that the same group of people who made Song Hailong and his group disappear are the same ones.

"Alright, we already know what happened. You go outside and wait. Don't come in without our permission," Tian Guo said coldly.

"Yes, yes."

Bai Hong bowed and scraped as he walked out, waiting obediently.

"Old Tian, what do you think about this?"

Yan Junwei glanced outside and said, "Do you think that old guy is telling the truth? That he really has nothing to do with this? That everything was done by that Chen Family Village he mentioned?"

Tian Guo pondered, "That old man probably doesn't have the guts to deceive us, and with his strength, he certainly couldn't have wiped out the entire guard team."

"Um."

Yan Junwei nodded. Let alone a Ming Jin martial artist, even a Hua Jin martial artist would die instantly if hit by a cannonball.

"If that's the case, then this matter is very likely the work of that Chen Family Village?"

As he paced back and forth, he said, "Whether it's Guan Dexi's death or the disappearance of Song Hailong and the others, it's all related to Chenjia Village. Even if they didn't kill them, they're definitely involved."

"You're right."

Tian Guo nodded.

How could a small village of two or three hundred people possibly achieve this?

There's probably some powerful force backing them up.

"Old Tian, what do you think? Should we set off now and go check out Chen Family Village? Maybe we can find some clues?"

Yan Junwei said excitedly.

To be honest, they weren't worried about Guan Dexi's death, since it had nothing to do with them.

Telling Lord Guan about this might even bring some credit.

Of course, it would be even better if we could find out where the murderer is.

"Old Yan, this matter might not be as simple as we think."

Tian Guo took a deep breath, his face extremely solemn.

"What do you mean?"

Yan Junwei was taken aback.

This matter is indeed not simple, isn't it? That's why they need to go to the scene to see for themselves, isn't it?

"Old Yan, do you remember yesterday when Lord Guan led a group of Qi Refining Realm martial artists out of the city early in the morning?"

"You remember? Everyone in Anshan City knows about this. What's wrong?"

Yan Junwei said without hesitation.

"Don't you think the timing is a bit too coincidental?"

"!!!"

Yan Junwei stood there, stunned, as if struck by lightning.

Yes,

The timing seems too coincidental, doesn't it?

Song Hailong led his men to bomb Chenjiazhai early yesterday morning.

Lord Guan, along with his Awakened subordinates, hurriedly left Anshan City early yesterday morning.

Is it possible that these two groups of people went to the same place?

This possibility cannot be ruled out.

Because Song Hailong could have easily called Lord Guan to inform him of this matter; it was impossible for him not to, it was just a matter of sooner or later.

"Looks like you guessed it."

Tian Guo took a deep breath and said, "Song Hailong led his men there, but they haven't returned yet, and all their weapons and equipment are gone. They're clearly in grave danger. And Lord Guan, it seems he hasn't returned yet either?"

Yan Junwei's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. He swallowed hard and lowered his voice, saying, "Old Tian, you mean, even Lord Guan?"

Tian Guo shook his head and said, "I don't know. Maybe I'm overthinking it. Lord Guan may have already returned to Anshan City, but we just don't know it."

"But his brother's body is still here?"

Yan Junwei was completely baffled.

If Lord Guan had already returned to Anshan City, then he certainly wouldn't know that his younger brother was in trouble.

Otherwise, he would have had the body taken back long ago.

Tian Guo remained silent.

Because he thought of the most terrible thing.

That was Lord Guan. He probably went to Chenjia Village as well, and then he got into trouble along with Song Hailong and the others.

If that's the case, then the situation is far too complex for someone like him, a mere Ming Jin martial artist, to get involved in.

"Old Yan, let's not go to Chenjia Village."

He said with a serious expression, "We should tell Lu Yang about this immediately and have him inform the higher-ups. If Lord Guan is also in trouble, I'm afraid only the city lord himself can resolve this matter."

"City, Lord City Lord."

Yan Junwei's breath hitched.

Has this matter really gotten this serious?

It must be the city lord who intervenes?

"well."

Despite his shock, he didn't hesitate; he took out his phone, found Lu Yang's number, and dialed it.

"Beep, beep, beep..."

The phone went dead.

Time passed second by second, until a minute later, the call automatically ended.

"No one's answering?"

Tian Guo exclaimed in surprise.

"I'll type it again."
