Stop---"

The person being pursued had been wounded and was fleeing in panic. A group of people was chasing that person in a city with heavy traffic. Vendors and passersby were being consecutively knocked over, causing the whole street to fall into chaos. But seeing that the culprits were from Wuliang Sect, everyone choked with silent fury.

That person stubbornly resisted but was ultimately caught in the end. He still did not give up and shouted: "I don't know anything, why do you want to catch me? Just because you're from Wuliang Sect, you can't arrest people in broad daylight! You're taking advantage of your power to bully people! Does the law still exist?!"

"Stop talking nonsense. Don't think that no one knows what kind of business you're doing. Take him away!"

The waiter from the teahouse came over to replenish their tea, and Xie Bi An inquired: "Brother, do you know what is going on outside?"

"Oh, something serious happened in Wuliang Sect yesterday. Are you the middleman of an immortal sect? If you are, you probably would have heard it."

"Yeah, I've heard of it, is this person the murderer?"

"Of course not, I heard that Meng Ke Fei was very powerful. If he's the murderer, how can he be caught by a bunch of  low-level disciples from Wuliang Sect?"

"Brother makes a reasonable point, then this is..."

"This person most likely escaped from Fumenghui. Last night, the Lone Sword Song Chun Gui brought some people to turn Fumenghui upside down. I heard that they wanted to catch those who are related to trading cores and bring them back to Yunding for interrogation." The waiter pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "They went crazy about catching people. There were a few men in our village who just went to Fumenghui to do some work for food and all of them were taken away inexplicably."

Xie Bi An frowned and seemed lost in thought.

Song Chun Gui's reputation was well-known even to the commoners who were not from the immortal cultivation world. He is Li Bu Yu's youngest disciple, a well-known one-armed swordsman in the world. With only one hand, he could skillfully display the swordsmanship of Wuliang Sect. Currently, he's the most popular figure in Wuliang Sect. Li Bu Yu dispatching this person showed the importance of Meng Ke Fei's death to the sect.

And Fumenghui, which the waiter mentioned, was only 15km away from Fengdu city. It was Jiuzhou's largest black market and leisure place. There were only things that people dare not to think, but there was nothing that people dare not to do. There were only things that people couldn't afford, but there was nothing that people couldn't sell. It's the most magical place in the world.

"Wuliang Sect is quick to take action by checking on Fumenghui first." Fan Wu She looked outside the window at those people who were taken away and said coldly, "It's a pity to turn to any doctor one can find when critically ill*. Where the wind and the waves are highest*, who would dare to trade Meng Ke Fei's golden core?"

"Yeah, but if they caught the people who are related to core trading, they might find some clues. However, spreading a wide net and arresting people indiscriminately will damage the prestige of Wuliang Sect."

That word "prestige" made Fan Wu She sneered secretly. Time was really a whitewashed facade*. Who knew the Wuliang Sect right now, as the leader of the Immortal Alliance and the model of immortal families, would have a different kind of appearance a hundred years ago.

"However, as long as Wuliang Sect finds out the truth, they won't hurt innocent people." Xie Bi An said, "Wu She, let's eat first. After eating, I will bring you house."
