A Journey Through the Martial World After Transforming into a Loli

"Were they poisoned?"

"No, there were no signs of poisoning on his body, not even a fight. It was as if he was killed at the same time. Even a master would probably find it difficult to do such a thing."

“No, there are some marks here. Look here, there are some sword marks. It seems that this person was frantically slashing here, but what did she see, and who was she fighting here with?”

"Senior Sister Jiang, are you saying they were attacked? But why are there no signs of fighting among the others?"

"Yes, they exist, but we just can't see them."

Senior Sister Jiang covered the female disciple's still-open eyes and closed them. "It is said that there is a very strange martial art in Dongyingzhou called Illusion Technique, which can make people unknowingly enter into the illusion they imagine. Perhaps they have encountered such a martial art."

"Illusion magic? That's considered a secret art of the Eastern Continent. It's said that only a very few people can master it, and they're all super geniuses. What are they doing here looking for the Lingzang Sword Sect?"

"Do you think it really was Lin Xueyi who did it? It's said that she is also extremely skilled in martial arts, very talented, and proficient in both literature and martial arts. Could it be her?"

At this moment, the man who had been ignored tried to make his presence known again, but Senior Sister Jiang ignored his question once more. Meanwhile, Junior Brother Liu stood up and answered after finishing his examination.

"It's not certain yet. We don't have any evidence right now, so we can't draw any conclusions. But I think we can ask that girl named Lin Xueyi. She should be able to find some evidence."

"Alright, everyone, let's settle these people down. They're all from the martial arts world, let them rest in peace."

Ignoring the two junior brothers, Senior Sister Jiang instead directed the many disciples of the Six Doors to collect the corpses on the ground and bury them.

The carriage slowly entered the gates of Tianfeng City. In the distance, one could see the huge tall building in the city center, which was said to be the location of the Lingcang Sword Sect, the strongest sect in Tianfeng City. However, it had now become a place of power that many forces were vying for.

Originally, Old Zhang wanted to take the girl back, but she insisted on coming to Tianfeng City, stubbornly saying that even if she had to walk, she had to come here to investigate and see who was slandering her.

“Girl, since those people are going to make you take the blame, they must have a backup plan. Even if you weren’t here, who can prove it? Me? How can an ordinary person like me prove it for you?”

Old Zhang was an ordinary person, while Zhang Hanqing was not an ordinary person, but from the words of the woman in green, it was clear that his identity was definitely not suitable to be made public.

So, the words of an ordinary person would naturally not be heeded by those so-called martial arts figures, especially after the news spread that whoever avenged the Lingzang Sword Sect could rule Tianfeng City. This news attracted a swarm of enemies.

Lin Xueyi naturally understood that what lay before her was a large number of martial arts practitioners who were unaware of the truth but came for profit. Her only good fortune was that she had not traveled to many places and did not know many people. Those martial arts practitioners probably did not even know what she looked like.

"Are you Lin Xueyi, Miss Lin?"

However, when Lin Xueyi lifted the carriage curtain and was chatting with Old Man Zhang, she was startled by a sudden female voice. To put it simply, the voice sounded really cool and refreshing, and when she saw the person, she was even more impressed.

"Never say that women are not heroes, for the Longquan sword sings on the wall every night."

"Is this a compliment? Then I'll accept it without hesitation."

"Of course, this is the first time I've ever seen such a cool lady. By the way, does she know me? I'm really flattered to be called by name by such a cool lady."

Although she didn't understand the meaning behind the nickname "little sister," "handsome little sister" seemed like a compliment, so Jiang Wudie naturally accepted it. Especially since many others were starting to treat her like a man, she naturally liked this sweet-talking girl even more.

"Little girl, you have a sweet tongue. No wonder you have the title of Fairy of Poetry. I am Jiang Wudie from the Six Doors. I have come here specifically for the Lingzang Sword Sect."

So it really was about the Lingzang Sword Sect? Lin Xueyi was a little disheartened. It would be a lie to say she didn't feel resentful. She hadn't done anything, yet she was being blamed for something.

"Officer Jiang, if I say I didn't do anything, would you believe me?"

"Captain? That title sounds pretty good." Jiang Wudie heard the first half of Lin Xueyi's words clearly, but elegantly ignored the second half.

"I don't think you would do something like murder or wiping out an entire family. However, we at the Six Doors value evidence. We will not draw any conclusions lightly without evidence."

Blinking her eyes, Lin Xueyi looked at Jiang Wudie, who was riding a horse and talking to her beside her carriage. "Are all the girls in this world this cool?" she thought. "Su Mengsha before, Jiang Wudie now..." Okay, Lin Xueyi admitted, Jiang Wudie was indeed even cooler than Su Mengsha.

It seems like only Ruoxue is still a bit lacking. Ruoxue's beauty isn't just handsome, but rather an indescribable kind of stunning beauty that makes your heart flutter at first glance.

Okay, she admits she misses Ruoxue again. If Ruoxue were by her side, she wouldn't have gotten involved in this troublesome matter, and now even the constables are coming to question her.

"So, Sister Jiang, did you come here to ask questions, or just to see me?"

"Of course I came to see you. You became famous at a young age, and legends about you have already spread throughout the martial arts world. How could I not come and see such a genius when I have the honor of meeting him?"

Lin Xueyi retorted that what she said was rather untrue; she was clearly just here to check on her situation and confirm her suspicions. However, she had nothing to hide and wasn't worried about being found out.

As for Jiang Wudie, one of the four disciples of the Six Doors, she also took a careful look at the little girl. Apart from her cute appearance, she was still an adorable little girl. She didn't believe in her heart that such a child would wipe out an entire family.

However, as an investigator investigating a case, she couldn't help but let her own subjective opinions take precedence. In many cases, in the end, it turned out that the least likely person was the murderer.

“Jiang Ji Na, this Miss Lin rented my car in Lianshui Town. Given her pace, it would be very difficult for her to wipe out the entire Lingzang Sword Sect in such a short time.”

Jiang Wudie remained noncommittal to what Old Man Zhang said, only glancing at Lin Xueyi, "If I remember correctly, Miss Lin once single-handedly wiped out all the experts from Haishan Cave who went to cause trouble at Flying Eagle Fortress, turning Haishan Cave from a top-tier force in Binzhou into a bottom-tier one."

"Well, if you're talking about Haishan Cave, then they went to cause trouble for Sister Su first, and I went to help. But I don't know anything about the Lingzang Sword Sect, and besides, I have no reason to say anything."

"You once said you were going to come here to find them, is that true?"

Jiang Wudie simply asked with a smile, but her question caused Lin Xueyi's expression to change. "To condemn someone with just one sentence?"

"No, this can only be evidence, evidence that raises doubts, but it cannot be considered conclusive. That's why I came here today. I want to ask what exactly happened."

Lin Xueyi harbored deep resentment towards the Lingzang Sword Sect. Those people were simply there to disgust her, disgusting her when they were alive and disgusting her even after they died.

"Hmph, when they went to Flying Eagle Fortress to help, they wanted to use me as a condition to marry me into the Lingzang Sword Sect and become their young sect leader's wife. I was so angry that I said I wanted to come here, but who knew that they would be gone before I even arrived."

"I see. There have been rumors about this in Tianfeng City. However, little girl, you are indeed a suspect in this matter. Although I don't want to say it, your safety is in danger recently. Why don't you come here?"

"Surveillance or solitary confinement?"

"No, it's not that. I just don't want you to be in danger. After all, if it really has nothing to do with you, you're also a victim."

Most importantly, those people's real target is very likely you. How could we, the Six Doors, let such a good clue wander outside on its own?

Main Text: Chapter Fifty-Three: The Base

An inn, that's right, the name of this inn is An Inn. Lin Xueyi accepted Jiang Wudie's invitation and came with her to the Six Doors' garrison in Tianfeng City.

It was called a "residence," but it was just a temporary place to stay in what was called an inn. That was what Lin Xueyi thought, but after entering, she realized that she had been naive.

This inn is the headquarters of the Six Doors in Tianfeng City. In other words, it's an inn run by people from the Six Doors, and it's considered a source of revenue for them.

"Girl, don't be shy here. We'll arrange a safe room for you so no one will hurt you. But you'll need to cooperate with us."

"Well, I understand the cooperation, but can I leave now that I've finished asking my questions? I still want to go see my sister."

"Your sister?" Jiang Wudie was a little surprised. She had also investigated Lin Xueyi, but most of the investigations had yielded no results. It was as if this girl had suddenly appeared in the martial arts world, and no one knew her origins.

However, Jiang Wudie also had some guesses about her. A girl of this age, who had no reputation in the martial arts world and was unknown to anyone, could even deceive the Six Doors. So, the only ones who could do this were probably the top few forces.

The only girl of that age is the young lady of the Holy Dragon Palace. However, she has always been protected by the palace master deep within the Holy Dragon Palace, and no one has ever seen her. Even now, there has been no news of her leaving the Holy Dragon Palace.

Most importantly, if that palace master doted on the young lady so much, how could he possibly let her travel the world alone? And if it wasn't her, then from which faction did Lin Xueyi come?

She couldn't understand it, nor could she guess what it was, but Jiang Wudie knew that one day the power behind her would surface, and she would find out where this girl came from.

"Yes, Ruoxue is also my older sister."

Lin Xueyi's words made Jiang Wudie's head ache even more, who had thought she had found a breakthrough. It seemed she should wait and wait some more.

"What does your sister look like? Could you draw a picture for us? We in the Six Doors may not know much else, but we have a deep understanding of the affairs and people in the martial arts world."

"Oh? She's very beautiful, the kind of woman you can't forget after just one meeting."

Lin Xueyi smiled innocently, but once again made Jiang Wudie feel a headache coming on. Sure enough, it was still difficult for a young girl to explain things clearly.

Lin Xueyi glanced at the female constable and chuckled inwardly. Ha, did she really think she was stupid, saying everything? Although she didn't know why Ruoxue left, she still had to investigate her own situation.

"Xueyi, you must be tired from the long journey. I'd like someone to make you some food so you can get a good night's rest. Tomorrow we're going to investigate the Lingzang Sword Sect. Why don't you come with us? Didn't you say you wanted to go there? Let's do it together."

"Okay, sure. By the way, what kind of delicious food is available here? I can try some."

"Haha, there's no gourmet food here. You're joking, young lady. It's just some home-style stir-fries. It's an honor for our shop if you can eat them."

Just as Lin Xueyi finished speaking, a long laugh came from inside the shop, and an ordinary-looking old man with a white beard slowly walked out of the shop.

"I am the manager of this inn. Miss, you can call me Yun Zhanqing."

"So it's Manager Yun..."

"Hmph, Old Yun, stop with the Yun Zhanqing nonsense. Just call you Old Yun. Alright, the young lady is hungry. Stop with the fancy talk and hurry up and get someone to cook for us."

"Third Senior Sister..." X3

Lin Xueyi watched as three passing disciples respectfully bowed to Jiang Wudie. Their respectful manner suggested that they were frequently cared for by this senior sister.

"Hmm, how come you three had time to go out and play today? Have you finished your homework?"

Watching the three fleeing for their lives, Lin Xueyi suddenly felt a pang of sadness for them. Even going out for fun was this miserable? For some reason, she suddenly thought of her own time during those three to five years of hard labor—yes, it must have been just as bad back then.

"Come on, little girl, let's go inside and rest for a while. I'll let you taste the chef's cooking here."

Jiang Wudie naturally took Lin Xueyi's small hand, which was soft and gentle. It was hard to imagine that this little girl was the one who had killed hundreds of experts in Haishan Cave all by herself.

When Zhang Laozhang saw Lin Xueyi being pulled away by Jiang Wudie, he just shook his head with a wry smile and prepared to drive the carriage to the backyard. However, just as he was about to leave, he heard Lin Xueyi calling him from the doorway.

"Old Zhang, come in and find me in a little while. Let's have dinner together."

For some reason, upon hearing this sound, Old Zhang felt much lighter, and even cracking the whip felt much easier.

"You silly girl, don't you think it's beneath you to eat with a coachman?"

"What? It's nothing. Old Zhang has taken good care of me the whole way. Now that we've arrived at our destination, it's only natural that I should return the favor and treat him to a good meal."

The best part is that it's free! You're using someone else's money to treat them, and they'll appreciate the gesture. It's a win-win situation. Lin Xueyi thought to herself.

Jiang Wudie looked at Lin Xueyi and felt that something was wrong, but since the words came from a young girl, she couldn't figure out what was wrong. So she pulled Lin Xueyi into the inn.

Unlike the luxuriously decorated restaurants, this place was quite ordinary, even plain. However, it was almost lunchtime, so many disciples of the Six Doors had gathered around the table, ready to enjoy a good meal after their studies.

Jiang Wudie led Lin Xueyi to a seat by the window. As for the person who had been sitting there, they naturally slipped away. Lin Xueyi looked at Jiang Wudie, who had made people give up their seats without even a glance. Hmm, this cool young lady must have a high status in the Six Doors.

A plate of grilled lamb chops, a plate of steamed fish, a plate of stir-fried pork liver—just the aroma wafted from the table, along with a plate of peanuts. Probably meant to accompany drinks.

"Xueyi, why don't you try these dishes first? I'll specially save some food for Old Man Zhang later, so he can go..."

"No, no, Sister Jiang, we can eat together. Old Zhang is a nice man, so it's fine for us to eat together."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wudie hesitated, but ultimately didn't voice her thoughts. She simply sighed softly.

Chapter Fifty-Four: Doubt

The Lingcang Sword Sect, a sect that once stood tall in Tianfeng City for hundreds of years, is now quiet and desolate, its former glory long gone.

At this moment, several disciples of the Six Doors were conducting a thorough search, hoping to provide some closure for the deceased. While everyone was searching carefully, the man who had been ignored by Jiang Wudie turned his attention to Lin Xueyi.

"Senior Sister Jiang, why did you bring her here? We're investigating a family annihilation case here. Aren't you afraid she'll sabotage the scene if you bring this suspect here?"
